A cat meow came, and the little black cat stomped in slowly, and I leaned down and picked it up. Luo Qiaoyu really asked Xiao Hei to accompany me.

"Blackie, you're back!" I was pleasantly surprised: "I haven't seen you for a few days, you are fat again!" ”

I walked out with it in my arms, asking questions and asking.

"Meow, meow," Blackie called twice, rubbing in my arms again, in response.

"Xiao Hei, you haven't eaten yet, I'll get you something to eat."

I got up and went into the house to get food for Xiao Hei, and I was feeding it, when I heard Aunt Gen next door coming over with a bamboo basket, "Banlei, feed the cat!" ”

I turned around and said, "It's auntie, come in!" ”

Hurriedly went to open the door for her.

"The old man of my family has just come back from the field, and he has picked a lot of fresh vegetables, and we can't finish eating them all, so I'll send you some."

Aunt Gen said as she placed the basket on the stone table, and sat down with her.

I wiped my hands with the corner of my clothes, and said a little shyly: "How embarrassing is this, I always eat your things." ”

"You're welcome, it's all from the neighbors."

Aunt Gen smiled.

I was no longer polite to her, and took the dishes, "Auntie, you can wait." ”

So saying, he went into the house by himself, and came out after a while, with a pair of Xinna's soles in his hand.

"Auntie, I bought a pair of soles for Uncle Gen a few days ago, you take them back and see if they fit."

"Oh, why did you buy us shoes again, I couldn't bear to wear the new shoes I gave me last time! You see how embarrassed it is, but what we give us is some small vegetables grown in the field or something, and you always bother to embroider things for us. ”

"Heh, it's nothing, auntie, you don't have good eyes and can't do needlework, I do it quickly, and it's also by the way."

"Then you're welcome, I'll take it."

Aunt Gen took it, put it aside, picked up the greens in the vegetable basket, and began to pick them.

I also sat down and picked it with Aunt Gen. Fresh small greens, with morning dew on the tender green leaves, were obviously picked by Uncle Gen next door early in the morning.

"Banlei, why is your face so ugly lately? Look at this little face, pale and pale, without any blood, like a ghost. ”

Aunt Gen was picking leaves in her hands and staring at me, her eyes full of worry.

I reached out and touched my face, "yes, maybe I didn't sleep!" ”

I said perfunctorily, in fact, I knew that it was a bit of a big bloodletting recently, and I had lost too much blood.

"Oh, what's wrong with your hands, why are you wrapped like this?"

Aunt Gen suddenly saw my raised hand wrapped in gauze, and hurriedly grabbed my hand to see, only to see that there were still blood stains in the gauze.

I quickly withdrew my hand, "It's nothing, I accidentally injured it when I was cooking." ”

The hemostatic medicine given by Luo Qiaoyu ran out, and the blood actually oozed out.

"Why was you so careless!"

Before Aunt Gen could say something, she heard someone shouting outside the gate of the courtyard next door, "Aunt Gen, Aunt Gen." ”

"Hey, I'm here."

Aunt Gen stood up and walked out of the courtyard.

After a while, I heard the sound of small footsteps coming this way, and soon I saw a woman carrying a wooden basin containing freshly washed clothes.

"Yo, it's the fourth sister-in-law!" Aunt Gen greeted her.

This woman, her husband's name is Luo Hongxiong, the fourth in line, known as the "fourth sister-in-law", is a well-known long-tongued woman in the village, Rao is rarely out of the house to know her deeds.

"Sister-in-law Hongxuan is here!" When the fourth sister-in-law saw me, she smiled enthusiastically.

Uh, speechless, this is my yard, where am I not at home?

"Fourth sister-in-law, please come in."

I hurriedly hired someone and went to the house to move a small stool.

"Don't be busy, I'll talk and leave in a while."

The fourth sister-in-law said a little embarrassed when she saw that I was moving a stool and serving tea and pouring water.

"Just sit down!"

Aunt Gen pulled her to sit down, and I was busy at this time, so I sat down with her.

"Aunt Gen, I was just washing clothes at the head of the stream, and I heard something amazing!"

The fourth sister-in-law took a sip of water and opened the topic.

"What's the matter, look at what you say!"

Aunt Gen continued to pick the leaves, pouting her lips unscrupulously. She knew that this was a master of good speech, who could speak the dead as alive, and that the words that passed through her mouth would be greatly discounted.

At this moment, I took the clothes and did needlework, and I also looked up and smiled at the fourth sister-in-law, signaling her to say something quickly.

The fourth sister-in-law was interested when she saw that we were all interested, and she didn't sell her official position anymore, so she continued: "I heard that something happened to Fourth Master Luo's family, and the second girl of his family is about to die. ”

"Who did you listen to?" Aunt Gen took a sip, "Yesterday, I saw Erya running away with a few girls and boys in the village!" ”

"I listened to her father."

The fourth sister-in-law saw that Aunt Gen didn't believe it at all, and she was a little anxious.

"Fourth sister-in-law, you say slowly, what's going on?"

I also opened my mouth this time, and I was still sewing with their big girl's clothes in my hand!

"I heard that yesterday, the two girls were greedy, and they touched and ate sweet potatoes in someone's house, and the sweet potatoes may have sticky mouse medicine, and this girl vomited and leaked when she went home after eating, and she was almost dead at night. This time, her uncle is going to the city to find a doctor! ”

"Who believes that!" Aunt Gen shook her head, "Don't say that the second girl is very clever, people don't take anything to eat, she said that her mother taught, don't take other people's things to eat, even if the second girl is hungry and eats secretly, but whose sweet potato will sprinkle poison?" It's so unfortunate that their second girl was eaten? ”

"I think it's weird too!" The fourth sister-in-law showed a suspicious look, "But this is what her father said in person in Xitou just now, but I am not the only one who heard it, there are several other daughters-in-law!" ”

"Phew," Aunt Gen smacked the ground, "Luo Er's words can also be believed, full of oil, idle, bullying the township, who in the village doesn't hate her!" ”

"Fourth sister-in-law, how is the second girl now?"

What I care about is the poor baby, who has been bullied by her father a lot on weekdays, and now she is still like this.

"That girl's condition is probably true, I just entered the village and met her uncle, and I saw him hurrying to the city! I screamed a few times, but I didn't bother to respond. ”

"Alas, what a sin, this person was poisoned by her own father and grandfather." Aunt Gen saw it thoroughly.

"Shh," the fourth sister-in-law looked around, and hurriedly stopped: "Aunt Gen, don't talk nonsense!" You still don't know the ruthlessness of Old Man Luo Si! If anyone offends their family by speaking, they must not let him knock on the door! Even his old wife alone can't stand it, and he didn't scold for three days and three nights! ”

"Alas!" Aunt Gen shook her head, "Pity that baby! ”

"Who's to say it isn't!" The fourth sister-in-law also sighed, and as she spoke, she stood up, picked up the wooden basin and was about to leave.
