053, running away from home
When Hong Xiaomoth heard his wife say this, he felt that it made sense, and suddenly realized that he had been fooled by his second daughter-in-law.
But the second daughter-in-law is so powerful, she thinks she can't get her, so as soon as her eyes rolled, she hit Chen Meizhi next to her.
"Let's go, go home and eat, your father and I are about to starve to death, where is your food?"
Chen Meizhi was kicked out, and her heart was very wandering, fortunately her sister grabbed some food for her just now, otherwise she would be hungry again tonight.
Slowly and finally walked to the back door of her house, Meng Cuiping was feeding the pigs, and when she saw her, she immediately lifted the pig bucket and said, "You dead girl, what are you doing slowly, hurry up and feed the pigs." ”
"Oh." Chen Meizhi walked over honestly.
"I came back so early today, have you eaten at your grandmother's house? What's the food for the night? Meng Cuiping was scheming, she had always firmly believed that her cotton money was stolen by Hong Xiaomoth, and now she just had no evidence.
So I want to get through the situation of Hong Xiaomo's family to see if the old lady has become generous.
Chen Meizhi did things with her head stuffy, and only replied after a while: "Mom, I don't want to go to my grandmother's house to eat in the future, you let me eat at home, I really don't eat much, even if it's only pot, I don't eat meat, as long as there are pickles." ”
As she spoke, her tears flowed down her face.
"Smack!" Meng Cuiping's eyes widened, and she hit Chen Meizhi on the back hard, shrinking her thin figure in pain.
"Are you stupid or stupid, what do you mean to eat at your grandmother's house? What you eat is our own food? Do you think your grandmother is so kind, we don't send food, she will let you eat there? ”
"The uncle's family also sent food, why did I never see Brother Mingzhi and them come over for dinner?"
"Your uncle's family is rich, I don't care about those two, we are all poor, can we compare them the same? What do I mean by that, dare you, you didn't come back from dinner?
I can tell you, I haven't cooked dinner for the two of you at home, and there are no pots, so hurry up and finish the work, go to your grandmother's house to eat, and only come back after eating. ”
Chen Meizhi sniffed hard, but the tears were still like broken water taps, flowing all over her face.
She put the pig bucket away, and subconsciously glanced in the direction of the pot stove, and suddenly her eyes were glued, and she saw three dishes and one soup covered with a cover above the pot lid.
The soup is loofah and egg soup, a braised pork, a braised chicken thigh, and a plate of fried vegetables, which looks oily and shiny, and the chicken thighs are also fried to golden brown, and the aroma is drilled into my nostrils one by one.
She looked before and after, she didn't see Meng Cuiping's figure, and she hated it even more, why, although she is a girl, she is also Meng Cuiping's own child, why is it only for the little brother?
The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became, she finally reached out, trembled and took two chicken legs, wrapped them in a patched pocket of her clothes, and quickly ran away through the back door.
found Chen Yanzhi who was playing under the back house of the nurse's house, and Chen Meizhi hurriedly handed over the chicken legs.
"Chicken legs, sister, where did you get them?" Chen Yanzhi saw the chicken legs, and her eyes sparkled.
"Eat quickly, don't ask so much." Chen Meizhi munched on the chicken leg silently, the more she gnawed on it, the more unpleasant it was in her heart, and tears flowed down again.
"Sister, do you think the two of us are really born to our mothers? All the good things are given to my brother, and we don't even have a pot to eat, but today I am fortunate that you are fast, otherwise we would both have starved tonight. ”
As soon as Chen Meizhi said this, Chen Yanzhi understood that this chicken leg must have been taken from her own home, but she glanced at Chen Meizhi with some surprise, she has always been timid, how dare she steal the chicken and eat it today?
"Sister, since our parents and grandparents don't care about us, why are we both staying here?
Anyway, in the village, we are also living on our own, so it is better to go out to work, and when the time comes, we can eat chicken legs every day when we make money. Chen Yanzhi said to the eldest sister in confusion.
She took 1,200 yuan that Hong Xiaomoth hid under the pickle jar.
With such a huge sum of money in hand, I wanted to run away from home alone, but after all, I was a little younger, and I was still a little scared, so I tried my best to lobby my eldest sister today.
If Chen Meizhi went out to work with her, then she would be much bolder.
Chen Meizhi sucked the gravy on the chicken legs, wiped her tears with her oily hands and said, "I also want to go out to work, but I heard that the train is expensive, and the two of us don't have a penny, so can't we go?" ”
"Sister, I'm rich!" Chen Yanzhi said softly, with smugness between her eyebrows and eyes.
Seeing that the eldest sister didn't believe it, Chen Yanzhi took her hand, and the two of them turned around and came to the side of a thatched pit that was about to collapse at the back of the village.
Chen Yanzhi held a sharp stone in her hand and dug it next to the pit.
Chen Meizhi covered her nose with her hands, frowned and asked, "Little sister, what are you digging?" ”
After digging for about ten minutes, Chen Yanzhi simply threw away the sharp stone, pulled the thing out with both hands, and uncovered the plastic bag, revealing a layer of blue cloth bag.
When she opened the cloth bag, Chen Meizhi was stunned, and there was a large stack of red hundred-yuan bills in it.
"Little sister, where did you get such money?" Chen Meizhi was frightened, and hurriedly looked back and forth, until she was sure that there was no one, and then she trembled and touched the red tickets.
"I got it from under the pickle jar at the dainy." Chen Yanzhi said proudly.
"So...... Did Milk really steal our family's cotton money? Chen Meizhi reacted immediately.
"Although the milk is for us to eat, she is either beaten or scolded, and she often counts us, she stole our family's money, why should she be cheaper.
I happened to see it, so I brought it. Anyway, my parents and grandparents are not good to us, since there is nothing to be nostalgic for here, why can't we take this money and go outside to live a good life? ”
Chen Meizhi was still a little hesitant, she was a little scared, although in the village, no one in the family wanted to see her, she had to be scolded if she wanted to eat a meal, and she had to do a lot of work, but at least her life was not in danger.
But when you get outside, what if you meet a bad guy? I've heard that there are a lot of traffickers out there.
"Sister, don't worry, I've thought about it, when the time comes, let's go to Jinlin Town first, twist off all our hair, and pretend to be a boy. Then you get your face dirty, and you tie one more hand inside your clothes, and I'll pretend to be lame.
We look like we're asking for food, who would have known we had so much money on us? Even if it's a human trafficker, I guess they won't be willing to abduct and sell us. "Chen Yanzhi doesn't look at her young age, but she has a lot of eyes.
Encouraged by her like this, and described the beauty of the world outside the village, Chen Meizhi couldn't help but be moved, and thought twice, okay, let's go together, so as not to suffer here.
Anyway, parents only have a little brother in their eyes!
If her heart is better than acting, Chen Yanzhi quickly sneaked home, secretly took out the clothes that she and her eldest sister often wore, and stole a pair of scissors from Hong Xiaomo's house.
Taking advantage of the fact that the sky was not completely dark, the sisters hid and hid and walked the path and ran in the direction of Jinlin Town.
