"Miss Xiu, our family is not rich, but we are not stingy people, where can you orphans and widows go, enter this house, and my Aunt Li will take care of you to the end!" Su Xiujin had tears in her eyes, "Auntie, I didn't mean that, Xiujin can get your help as soon as she falls, it has been smooth sailing in this life, and it is already the mercy of the sky, but I can't let Brother Li sleep in the firewood room." “

Li Gouwa hurriedly patted her chest and said: "What is sleeping in the firewood room, I have rough skin and thick flesh, and I also make sleeping in a pigsty." “

Seeing Li Gouwa's serious face, Su Xiujin burst into tears and smiled, "Brother Li, I really don't dare to let you sleep in the pigsty, if you sleep in the pigsty, we have to sleep on the street to avoid being laughed at." “

The fourth aunt nodded again, the Li family has already helped a lot to be so righteous, where can they let the benefactor give them a seat.

"I originally thought that I could go to my sister temporarily, at least my mother can still have some protection, but now I think about it, my sister is still a newly married woman, not long after passing the door, let's go to the house, the fourth sister I know, she will never refuse us, but those in-laws will inevitably not underestimate us, so that my sister will be difficult to be a person in the future." Su Xiujin said with a straight face, she already had a plan in her heart, and now that she is out of the Su family, she has countless opportunities to let the fourth aunt and herself live smoothly and happily.

Old man Li frowned and asked cautiously, "Then what are your plans?" ”

Su Xiujin turned his head to look at Jin Da Niu fixedly, Jin Da Niu was stunned by Su Xiujin, and suddenly became a little at a loss. "Brother Jin said that he could lend me fifty yuan, and I want to use this money to find a place to settle with my mother temporarily, and then slowly start a small business to make a living."

When Jin Daniu heard this borrowed word, he didn't say a word: "Miss Su, you just take it, don't say whether you borrow it or not!" “

The most thoughtful thing in this is Old Man Li, Old Man Li looked at Su Xiujin, when she came to ask for help last night, he felt at a glance that this girl was not simple, just talking about this full body bearing, she didn't look like an ordinary girl.

Aunt Li's face was full of sorrow, "What's wrong with living in our house, where are you going to look, your mother's health is not good, I can also help you, the girl's family, where can you do what Lao Shizi business with a businessman." “

Li Gouwa also nodded, "It's difficult to find a place to settle here," he looked at Su Xiujin's thin and weak body, and then looked at the fourth aunt, and said even more firmly, "If there is no one to take care of this, it will not be easy to live outside." “

Su Xiujin was noncommittal, she looked at Old Man Li, whether she succeeded or not, she only saw Old Man Li make a decision,

Old man Li smoked a dry cigarette, frowned, hesitated for a long time on his face, and finally nodded with difficulty, Su Xiujin's face was happy, and Old Man Li hurriedly said: "It's okay to find a place to live, but you have to let the dog baby and big cow help you with some dots, you live in this village, let's find some ways to let you two settle down in the future, let's help you, it's not difficult." “

As soon as she heard that she could still settle down, the fourth aunt and Su Xiujin looked at each other and smiled, and thanked Old Man Li's family again, Old Man Li was busy helping Su Xiujin this time, and said in his mouth: "Don't be busy thanking, you used to live a rich life, I'm afraid that your girl won't be able to hold on." “

Su Xiujin smiled and was silent, life and death have passed several times, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of her, what about the hellish ghosts, she is fearless!

In the next two days, Jin Daniu also stubbornly did not go home, and found a fellow to talk, saying that his uncle's family was in an emergency, and he was helping to ask where there was a rental house in the same village, preferably not far from the Li family, but I didn't expect Su Xiujin's luck to be really not bad, this search, Jinjia Village really has a house for rent, the owner of this house was originally an old woman, because her daughter did a big house, in recent years, burning incense and worshiping Buddha gave birth to a boy, the daughter naturally carried her aunt, and there was some private money around her, and she had face in her husband's house. So he took the old woman to live in the city, and as soon as the man was gone, the house was empty.

The golden mother-in-law looked at the big cow to inquire about this, and she was not less taken care of by the golden cow on weekdays, and the only daughter left, carrying water and chopping firewood or something was done by the golden cow, this time, where did she not want to help this honest young man. As soon as I heard Jin Daniu say that the guest was a distant relative of my uncle's family, a mother and daughter, I was even more happy in my heart, she had been widowed for many years, so she naturally couldn't rent the house to a male guest, so after talking about it, she finally negotiated it at a price of forty yuan a month, and she couldn't take away the furniture in this house, so she simply made a favor for Su Xiujin and them.

When Jin Daniu said this to Su Xiujin, Aunt Li disagreed, this place is not in Lijia Village, but Jinjia Village next door, which is a bit far away, if Su Xiujin has any difficulties in the future, what can I do?

She pulled Su Xiujin to talk about it, Su Xiujin always smiled and said: "Even if it is rare for my aunt to come to see me once, then I will come to disturb my aunt a lot, if there is a house in Lijia Village in the future, then I will move back and live close to my aunt." ”

After grinding like this for two more days, Aunt Li finally let people go. As soon as the day was bright, Aunt Li got up early, took out her own rice jar, dug out two small bowls of cornmeal, took out the lard that she didn't often eat, mixed it with sorghum flour, made two sturdy cornmeal cakes, and took out four eggs from under the bedside table.

The fourth aunt's body has been almost better these days, the two of them simply freshened up, followed Jin Da Niu on the road, Old Man Li and his family have been sent to the village gate, Aunt Li looked at Su Xiujin's slender back, couldn't help but turn around and wipe her tears, she has had a son in so many years, and those who look forward to the stars and the moon want a daughter, Su Xiujin has been at home for so many days, she is sensible and diligent, she has regarded her as her own daughter in her heart, and she is naturally reluctant to go.

When I got home, I opened the door in a sad way, and saw that there was no more Su Xiujin sitting by the stove in the house and asked with a smile: "Auntie, are you back?" ”

My heart was sour, and when I turned my head to look at the familiar cloth bag on the table, Aunt Li opened it and saw that the four eggs were neatly stacked together, and there was a string of copper coins strung with red rope on the table, roughly counting, it was ten copper plates, Aunt Li hurriedly took the cloth bag and wanted to chase it back, but there was no figure on the road, Aunt Li kept saying: "This stupid girl, this stupid girl!" ”

There are many mountain roads in the village, Lijia Village and Jinjia Village are not close, Su Xiujin half hugged and half supported the fourth aunt, and waited until noon, Jin Daniu and his party walked less than half the distance.
