"Dead Niko! I didn't come back until midnight, and where did I go crazy? Mother Long Lancui was as disgusted and scolded as always, and was not moved by her daughter's sad crying, she was still angry, and turned back to the side angrily, picked up a stick in her hand, and strode towards Xia Yu.

The stick was raised high, and it was about to fall fiercely.

Xia Yu suddenly knelt under the potholed bricks. I haven't felt the coldness of the ground for a long time.

She remembers. Since being rescued by Wanjin, a lot of money has been smashed on the door. The family's economic conditions improved, and her mother never said a word to her again. Hold her in the palm of your hand as a baby bump, and everything will follow her. She really liked her mother's anger and the chill from her knees.

Long Lancui's cloudy eyes were full of surprise. She turned her head to look at her husband Xia Lin, and the stick she raised had not fallen for a long time.

Xia Lin, who was sitting on a low stool, snuffed out his cigarette butt on the ground and slowly got up with a pained expression.

He was overworked when he was young, he was sick in his fifties, and last year he accidentally fell from the mountain road to the bottom of the mountain, and his family had no money, so he used local methods to heal him. But his once upright body was rickety, his legs were lame, and he didn't see the ability of his youth at all. After sitting at home for a year, he always borrowed wine to drown his sorrows.

Xia Lin lifted the curtain and walked towards the inner room, and said helplessly: "Forget it! It rains heavily and the mountain road is difficult to walk. Just come back! ”

"Dad! I'll earn money to heal you!" Xia Yu remembers very clearly that a year later, Xia Lin was always sent to the Baxian County Hospital more than ten kilometers away because of a large amount of alcohol and blocked blood vessels, relying on her to secretly take money back to treat him.

Xia Lin was stunned, slowly turned his head, and suddenly looked at her and smiled, a little ridiculous, "What nonsense?" You're still reading, and you're ...... How much money can you earn? ”

She is the second in the family. There are two younger sisters who want to study below, and the eldest brother is also facing the age of marrying a wife. The family's livelihood is barely sustained by a few acres of land. Therefore, the conditions of the family did not allow her to study at all. And if you nest here, after graduation, you can only sell clothes to the only few self-employed people in the town.

"I'll do it!" A resolute glint flashed in her eyes.

Long Lancui yelled impatiently, "Get out and sleep!" ”

Xia Yu got up from the ground with emotion, turned around three times in one step, and reluctantly watched Long Lancui slowly climb towards the stairs in the corner.

The narrow upstairs is divided into three rooms by wooden planks, the corridor is a pile of miscellaneous items, and the one next to the road is the bedroom of the eldest brother Xia Jie, and she and her two younger sisters Xia Yan and Xia Li sleep in the middle room.

There was only one large bed inside, and the three sisters had been sleeping together since they were young. It's okay in winter, hugging each other for warmth, but in summer, it's too hot to stand.

Hearing that Xia Yu was back, Xia Yan and Xia Li, who were sleeping in a daze, sat up from the bed and looked at her with blank eyes, "Sister! You're back! ”

It's nice to see my sisters again! She was delighted and gave them a cordial hug.

The two younger sisters stared at her stupidly. Nothing happened.

She reacted, smiled, and looked at the small window that connected the room, "Is the eldest brother asleep?" ”

"Sleep!" Xia Yan and Xia Li said in unison.

The eldest brother thought that he was tired from working in the fields for a day, so he went to bed early. And being able to huddle with her sisters again is hot, Xia Yu's heart has indescribable excitement and joy.

The light was turned off, she reached out to Xia Li, who was sleeping with her, sniffed the girl's sweat in her hair, and closed her eyes beautifully.

Nightmares continued, and I always saw Wanjin's hideous and ugly face......

"Uncle Xia! Come! Have a drink! ”

"No wonder the magpies chirp all the time early in the morning. It turned out that a distinguished guest was coming. Eat vegetables eat vegetables! ”

Downstairs, there was a faint sound of two men exchanging glasses and drinking each other, with that shocking and harsh voice, Xia Yu was stirred in his dream, and Huo Di sat up.

The air was mixed with a choking smell of stir-fried vegetables and the smell of bacon.

Through the small window, she saw that the sun was shining directly at this moment, it should be close to noon, and the two younger sisters beside her were long gone.

If she remembers well, she generally doesn't fry tea at noon at home, but only eats it, mostly steamed steamed buns.

She quickly pulled the crumpled shirt that had been thrown at the head of the bed, put on her cloth shoes, and walked up the stairs, but she was not in a hurry to go downstairs, but listened quietly to the conversation of the people below.

"Uncle Xia! Xia Yu did well in the class, and I heard that he was the first runner in the class. It's good in all aspects, and she can't be allowed to nest in this mountain. ”

"You're right, Xia Yu should go out to break in, but the art school you said is too expensive, and our family ......."

"Uncle Xia doesn't have to worry about money, and the cost is not high. I am a person with a unit, and I came here this time just to inspect and investigate this town, and I want to do some small business. I heard Xiao Liu talk about Xia Yu inadvertently. I happened to pass by the door with him today, so I came in to have a look. I don't want to, as soon as I hit it off with Uncle Xia, I should recognize a relative. ”

"Oooh! But your hurt ......"

"Oh! Out of the way! Yesterday, I wanted to go to see the famous Wolong Peak here, but I didn't expect to fall. ”

As soon as he heard this, Xia Yu's hands tightened inwardly, and his body trembled slightly.

Wanjin downstairs didn't succeed last night, and was throwing tempting sugar-coated cannonballs at his honest father. And coming so early, I think there is also a temptation. Xiao Liu in his mouth is a hired person of his unit's subordinate office. is the eldest son of his second aunt. It was smashed, and he actually made it into a fall. History changed, and he reacted accordingly. If history does not change. Seeing with his own eyes that he jumped into the river, he would definitely chase him down the river overnight.

I don't know if God favors him, or if he really knows the area, but he actually saved himself dramatically. The identity of a certain bureau in Nayang City is simply a dazzling signboard. The salary is high, and the benefits are good. Even the hired personnel in Pingzhen's subordinate offices are majestic, eating and drinking spicy food, which is enviable.

The sound of kicking downstairs came immediately, representing how angry the people who went downstairs were.

Xia Yu vigorously lifted the half-cut curtain of broken flowers, and saw Xia Lin, Wan Jin, and the third cousin sitting around the only high stool. Three side dishes are crowded on a high bench.

A small bowl of cold radish skin, a large bowl of fried potatoes, and a bowl of bacon and fried cabbage.

Air-dried bacon is a luxury in the family, and only the mother of the distinguished guest will take it out to entertain him.

Wan Jin's head was covered with white gauze, and his face was slightly deformed due to swelling. The third cousin looked beaming, his eyes only fell on the bowl of bacon fried cabbage, and the chopsticks did not stop. Not to mention his father, the wrinkles on his face were deepened by joy.

The three of them each held a glass of the town's home-brewed baogu wine, and the atmosphere was very good, and it seemed that they had a good conversation.

Such a poor environment, I don't dislike losing thousands of dollars.

Xia Yu rushed straight to Wanjin, waved his hand with all his might, and shook it off with a slap.

There was a snap. Wan Jin stood up with his wine. The atmosphere froze for a while.

Goodbye, the enemy's eyes were red. Xia Yu gritted his teeth and wanted to kill Wan Jin, "I don't need your funding, you'd better get out of Pingzhen." ”
