Chapter IV
Due to Meng Yao's cheating in space, Meng Qingxuan filled the back basket in half a day's effort, first carefully hiding the wild eggs under the wild vegetables, and then spreading the grapes on top of the wild vegetables, filling it with a back basket. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe pheasant had no choice but to tie it with rattan and hang it on the back basket.
Meng Qingxuan usually doesn't eat well, and his body is as thin as a seven or eight-year-old child, but his strength is not small, and it can be seen from carrying water in the morning that the water in the water tank at home every day is brought back by Meng Qingxuan when he goes to the river, so there is no pressure on him to carry the things in the basket, but Meng Yao is distressed when he sees it, and he twists his small body to get rid of Meng Qingxuan's hand: "Brother, I want to go by myself." ”
"It's tiring to walk this mountain road, Tuan Tuan obediently let my brother hug me." Meng Qingxuan felt distressed, and Meng Yao naturally didn't allow it.
"Tuan Tuan wants to go by himself, and when he gets tired, my brother will hug me, okay." Meng Yao flattened her mouth, as if as long as Meng Qingxuan refused, she could shed tears. It's a long way home, Meng Qingxuan still has to carry so many things, and he has dozens of pounds anyway, so he can't be tired of Meng Qingxuan, but he will be distressed when the time comes. "And I want to walk back while strolling."
"Okay, good, but you must say it when you are tired." Meng Qingxuan was glad that his sister felt sorry for him, and at the same time he was entangled in what to do with his tired sister, so he still had no choice but to put people down. The two held hands and walked in the direction of home. Thanks to the space water that I have been drinking recently, I have been recuperating with spiritual spring water, and I have persevered for a long time after stopping and stopping.
There are unknown wildflowers blooming brilliantly all the way, Meng Yao is surprised to see everything, picking flowers here, pulling grass there, it is also interesting: "It's really beautiful here." Meng Yao breathed an unusually fresh breath of air, there was no pollution from the previous life, there was no so-called haze, everything looked so beautiful.
"Of course, Nanshan is the foundation of our Nanshan Village." Meng Qingxuan felt that his sister had become more lively than before after a serious illness, although Tuan Tuan was also very well-behaved before, but he just sat there quietly every day and didn't speak, which made people feel distressed to watch.
"Yo, Qingxuan's good luck, these two pheasants are not small." Along the way, some people looked at the pheasants hanging at the bottom of the basket and said enviously.
"Second grandfather, this is going to the field, today I went around the trap dug before to take a look, but I didn't expect to fall into two pheasants." Meng Qingxuan greeted a very energetic old man with a smile.
"Okay, it's just time to make up for Yao Ya's body." The second grandfather touched Meng Yao's head with a smile and touched it from his pocket: "Yao girl eats candy, this is what your uncle Zhu brought back from the county seat, it's sweet." ”
"Thank you, second grandfather." The sugar cube is a little melted, it looks very rough, and it can't be compared with the candy in the space, and because it is placed in the pocket, there are some things on it, but Meng Yao just can't refuse the kindness of others, although he doesn't like to eat it, he still takes it with a smile and stuffs it into his mouth: "Second grandfather, it's really sweet." ”
"Okay." The second grandfather looked happier than he had eaten candy himself. "I'm tired of going up the mountain, Qingxuan take Yao Yatou's house quickly, don't be tired."
"Hey, second grandpa, slow down."
Meng Yao followed Meng Qingxuan along the path home and walked slowly, at this time, most of the people were adobe houses like her family, with similar structures, all of them had very large yards, most of them were used to grow vegetables, of course, they were more watery than the few wilted ones in their own yard, or they went to the mountains to dig one or two fruit trees and plant them in the courtyard, which was quite interesting to see. In the past, Meng Yao looked at the blue brick and tile house in front of him, which seemed to stand out from the crowd, and the structure of the house was somewhat similar to the courtyard house in the previous life, which looked quite atmospheric: "In the future, I will also make money to build a big house." Meng Yao looked at the blue brick and tile house in front of him with envy, ignoring the obscurity in Meng Qingxuan's eyes beside him.
Suddenly, the courtyard door opened, and two people came out of it, a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, wearing a brand-new pink placket, tied in a double bun, and a pink head flower on both sides, the flower was strung together with several delicate small flowers, hanging on both sides of the bun to look quite delicate and cute, this girl also looked delicate, but her skin was slightly dark, and the pink skin on her body was even darker, Meng Yao sank when she saw this person's face, and it was the murderer who killed the original body, her uncle's eldest daughter, Qin Daya, who ran out.
Another woman in her thirties, with a thin face, a pointed chin, triangular hanging eyes, thin lips, and a half-worn coarse cotton jacket and skirt, was none other than Meng Yao's aunt Qin He.
Qin He didn't expect to see Meng Qingxuan's brothers and sisters as soon as he went out, and his face immediately drooped, but his eyes turned to the pheasant hanging on Meng Qingxuan's back basket, and his face was immediately full of smiles, and his face changed so quickly that it was breathtaking: "Hehe, Qingxuan came to bring something, your uncle has been nagging about wanting to eat some wild things recently." ”
"Uncle wants to eat, because he has a cousin to honor him, and I'm a nephew who rushes to honor me, I'm afraid that my cousin will not be a good person." Meng Qingxuan sneered and didn't want to pay attention to her, and said coldly and wanted to leave after pulling Meng Yao.
Qin He's face changed, and he opened his mouth and scolded: "You unfilial little rabbit, what do you mean, your uncle can't eat a chicken from you." But Qin Daya, who was standing behind, saw Meng Yao standing there and pulled her mother's sleeve behind.
Qin He reluctantly took his eyes off the pheasant, and saw Meng Yao smiling wryly: "Yaoyao, this is okay, hey, my aunt still wants to see you, it's not been busy lately, hey, how can you go to the river to play, isn't this going to be an accident, I told your father to leave you to me to take care of, but your father refused, so something will happen." Qin He's chattering was very dissatisfied with Meng Yuan.
Meng Qingxuan's face turned black when he heard this, the corners of his forehead were bruised, and he held Meng Yao's hand tightly and tightly: "Uncle said that it was funny, my family Tuan Tuan Tuan is indeed disobedient, if it wasn't for someone to follow, how could he fall into the river and get sick in vain." As he spoke, he glared fiercely at the big girl Qin who was shrinking behind Qin He's family.
Qin He's face stiffened: "What do you mean, Qingxuan, don't listen to people's nonsense about who has wronged anyone, it's obvious that Yao Yatou fell into the river by herself for fun, thanks to your cousin who saw it, otherwise Yao Yatou wouldn't be able to save it." "Qin He's abacus is good, but she asked Qin Daya carefully, at that time, everyone was far away, and no one saw her do it at all, as for that little girl, just take something and coax a few words.
Meng Yao gently shook Meng Qingxuan's arm, and looked at Qin He with a confused expression: "Uncle, Qingyao was pushed into the water by someone, really, don't lie to you, cousin at that time... ”
Before he finished speaking, he saw Qin He stepped forward angrily and pinched Meng Yao: "What are you talking nonsense about a little rabbit cub, obviously you are greedy for fun, what do you mean now that you are going to rely on your cousin." ”
"Auntie, what did you do with Tuan Tuan, but Tuan Tuan didn't say anything." Meng Qingxuan angrily pushed Qin He away and protected Meng Yao in his arms.
The movement of several people was not small, Qin He's voice was loud, and soon the villagers came over in twos and threes: "What's the matter, what's the matter, Qin He's family, you are still working with the juniors." ”
As soon as Qin He saw someone watching, he sat directly on the ground and patted his thigh and began to howl: "I can't live this day, I think that when my sister-in-law passed away, I looked at the child as small, pitiful, and rushed to take care of her, Qingyao's girl was brought up by me with a handful of and urine, but now this conscienceless little rabbit cub doesn't remember her aunt's love, and she also framed my eldest girl for pushing her into the river." Qin He was wiping away her non-existent tears while howling, and she was also weak-hearted, and subconsciously thought that what Meng Yao was going to say was that Qin Daya pushed her into the water, and wanted to strike first: "Who doesn't know my eldest girl, that child has a good temperament, and this unconscionable self is afraid that his father will say that he will frame my eldest girl like this." ”
In fact, when Meng Yao fell into the water, no one in the village saw it when he was far away, everyone really thought that Meng Yao was a little greedy and accidentally fell into the river, and he was afraid of being blamed for lying and pushing it on Qin Daya, this is also Qin Daya's usual life, and she is the most gentle and virtuous outside, smiling when she sees people, and she can talk and behave.
Meng Qingxuan's whole person was trembling, and he retorted in a dumb voice: "Uncle, when did Tuan Tuan say that it was pushed by his cousin, aren't you weak-hearted?" ”
Qin Daya's face changed slightly, she looked at Meng Qingxuan with a look of grievance, and said with a choked voice: "Qingxuan, did you misunderstand something, do you also think that I pushed Yaoyao, you believe me, I really didn't push Yaoyao." Saying that, she couldn't help crying: "Yaoyao, I am my own sister, I usually have delicious food and fun, I am close to Qingyao, and I usually take her with me, how can I do that." ”
The onlookers saw that this was the two brothers and sisters who were slandering Qin Daya together, after all, what Qin Daya said was the truth, usually Meng Yao and his father went out to work part-time, and Meng Qingxuan's half-sized son was sometimes too busy to take care of Qin Daya with Meng Yao. There are naughty boys who bully Meng Yao, and they are all protected by Qin Daya. Hearing this, Meng Yao not only learned to lie and slander her cousin without conscience at such a young age, but also her brother, this is bad from the root.
Meng Qingxuan's lungs were about to explode when he heard other people's discussions, if he hadn't found the injuries on Tuan Tuan's body once, he would have thought that Qin Daya was a good person, but now when he heard someone say this, he couldn't wait to step forward and strangle Qin Daya.
Qin He was still sitting on the ground and crying: "My eldest girl's life is hard, she usually works hard for this white-eyed wolf, and she loses her conscience, she is going to ruin my eldest girl's reputation." ”
The onlookers looked at Meng Yao's face and suddenly felt a little bad. Reputation can be said to be very important in this era, if Qin Daya really murders her cousin, as long as it has something to do with the Qin family, even this village will be affected, which shows its importance, Qin He's family is to destroy Qin Daya's reputation by catching Meng Yao to death, and this will be squeezed out by the entire village in the future.
Especially in this rural place, there is more or less a relationship between each other, and this word of mouth is passed on by word of mouth, and it is estimated that the entire county can know her deeds. Meng Yao also looked at Qin He in a daze, as a new human born in New China and grew up under the red flag, Meng Yao really had never seen such a down-to-earth way of sprinkling, until Meng Qingxuan's anger did not control the strength of Meng Yao, who was almost breathless, before he reacted, Daddy, she has become a wolf-hearted dog-lung little white-eyed wolf, so simple onlookers believed it, Meng Yao felt that her whole person was not good, and pinched the place that was pinched by Qin He's just now, the dull pain instantly forced out tears, Meng Yao grinned, wow wow burst into tears, The sharp voice instantly overshadowed Qin He's voice: "Uncle, I was wrong, it wasn't my cousin who pushed me, it was me who was greedy to play in the river, it's not my cousin's business, don't beat me." ”
"Tuan Tuan is not afraid, no one wants to beat you." Meng Qingxuan stroked Meng Yao's back distressedly, and looked at Qin He, who had reversed black and white, with an angry face.
Meng Yao hugged Meng Qingxuan's neck and cried loudly, her face was full of horror, and she didn't forget to shout there clearly: "Is there really no one beating me, will my aunt and cousin really not beat me again, brother, brother, you and cousin said, Tuan Tuan didn't tell others that she pushed me, Tuan Tuan fell into it by herself, Tuan Tuan gave her everything, and everything in my house was hers." Tuan Tuan is not a broom star nor a short-lived ghost, don't fight Tuan Tuan. ”
The crowd of onlookers exploded when they heard Meng Yao's words, there was too much information in them, no one would have thought that Meng Yao was lying, after all, she was just a three-year-old child, if no one said these words in front of a child, how could a child say such mean words, how much black heart does it have to be to treat a child so harshly, and then look at Meng Yao's face of fear, and even more believe that this is a threat and is not allowed to tell the truth. The villagers were all outraged by these words. Looking at Qin Daya's eyes, they were all scrutinized.
Qin Daya had a miserable white face, tears in her eyes, and a weak and deceitful appearance: "I don't, I really don't, how can you slander me so much." "Tears don't fall, with that delicate little face is really pitiful, but it's a pity that the countryside looks at the girl is whether she can do a good job or not, most of the onlookers are some women who have nothing to do and are idle and chattering, and they are even more disgusted with such a coy attitude, except for some young men with strong blood, Qin Daya completely wasted that general expression.
"Cousin, don't don't hit me." Looking at Qin Daya's appearance, Meng Yao screamed in shock, and the whole person trembled and buried herself in Meng Qingxuan's arms. "I don't want a flower, I don't want it"
Everyone's eyes looked at the two flowers on the head of the big girl Qin, her face was weird, if you want to say that if this flower is bought from outside, forget it, after all, no one can say what is popular, but Meng Yao is a cheap lady with ingenuity, and she designed many flower patterns that were not sold outside, and she also cooperated with the treasure pavilion in the county, which was very popular, and many women in the village benefited from this at that time, and now when they saw the flowers on the head of the big girl Qin, they all thought about it, and one of the women who did things for Meng Yao and her mother immediately shouted:" Yes, yes, this pattern said that Rue Xiang would not sell it to the Treasure Pavilion, and said that what is this bell flower called, it is the most suitable for the little girl to wear, and she wants to keep it for her daughter to wear in the future. Some people began to think about Qin Yunxiang's good back then, and then saw Qin Daya's current behavior, and public opinion began to be one-sided.
Public opinion is like this, saying that the wind is the wind and saying that the rain is the rain, except for the parties involved, those onlookers who don't know the truth are like this, either/or, watching a lively one, and having a weak psychology, no matter what the truth is, Meng Yao, a child who cries heartbreakingly, can always inspire the sympathy of those onlookers who are overflowing with maternal love.
