After the village chief finished speaking, he turned around to leave, and Liu Shusen was so frightened that he hurriedly pushed away Mrs. Liu, who didn't dare to say anything more, and stepped forward to grab the village chief.

"Don't! This matter is my mother's owe consideration, I promise that I will never care about the affairs of the third family in the future, and I will tell my father to go back, there will never be a next time! ”

Liu Shusen felt distressed that the silver in his hand had flew, and he blamed the village chief for being nosy, but he didn't dare to really make trouble in the clan.

The three rooms are separated, and it stands to reason that the old house has no right to manage the affairs of the women in the three houses, unless the willow root and his wife have died.

"Remember what you said, and then dare to have a next time, I will be the first to talk to you!"

The village chief didn't really want to open the ancestral hall, and it was a big sin to disturb the ancestors.

With a cold snort, the village chief didn't bother to look at Mrs. Liu again, turned to Liu Ya, who was holding Liu Miao and crying silently: "Liu Ya, your father is not at home, and your mother's body is not good, you, the eldest girl, should know something and support the family." ”

"Ming'er...... I'll ask your aunt to bring some millet over in a while, and you have to live a good life, and when your father comes back, it'll be fine. ”

"Thank you, village chief grandpa, it's Liu Ya's mistake, you shouldn't make a fuss." Liu Ya wiped her eyes, helped Liu Miao to stand up and bowed in thanks.

"Don't look at the big guy, help carry the third family into the house, go back and rest quickly, Ming'er doesn't have to work in the field?"

With a snort, the village chief strode away.

Soon the village chief's family sent two catties of millet and two eggs, which was very valuable in the countryside.

There are also women who are good friends with the Liu Wang family, and send a scoop of rice grain, or a handful of coarse salt, so that their mothers can last for a while.

"Little sister, doesn't our father have a good brother in the village?"

At night, when Liu Wang's family fell asleep, Liu Ya asked in a low voice.

"My father was sent to work in the landlord's house since he was a child, and I heard that he returned to the village after marrying his mother, and I didn't hear that my father got along with anyone." Liu Miao replied.

Liu Ya sighed.

With the village chief in charge, the old mansion will temporarily stop for a few days, and Liu Ya must take advantage of this time to save money, and must not let Liu Ye stay in the Ge family to be tortured.

Early in the morning of the second day, Liu Ya cooked some wild vegetables and millet porridge, and steamed an egg custard for Liu Wang's family and Liu Miao to replenish their bodies, but he was reluctant to eat it.

When cooking porridge, a few drops of space water were added, and after eating, Liu Ya felt that his spirit was better than yesterday, so he took a woodcutter and went into the mountain.

The deep mountains are not daring to enter, and Liu Ya only dug two traps on the route he went to yesterday, and he did not dare to guarantee that there would be a harvest, and the focus was to find wild eggs.

Sure enough, by noon, Liu Ya found seven nests of wild eggs, and there were forty-one of them.

After chopping another bundle of firewood, Liu Ya went down the mountain and went home, already hungry.

"Mother, I'll chop a bundle of firewood in the second half of the night, I'll go to the town to sell it tomorrow, buy you some red dates and brown sugar and come back."

While eating, Liu Ya spoke.

"Don't buy it, it's expensive, where can people like us afford to eat. I happen to have a few embroidery jobs here, and you can go a little bit and ask for a few more handkerchiefs to come back. ”

Liu Wang frowned, obviously having something on his mind.

What Mrs. Liu said last night, the sisters didn't dare to let Liu Wang's know, for fear that she wouldn't be able to think about it.

"I picked up several nests of wild eggs at the foot of the mountain, and those things are worth more than domestic ones. When I go back, I will take Liu Miao with me, so don't worry about the silver. ”

Liu Ya enlightened.

"Alas!" Liu Wang leaned back tiredly, and said with a little complaint: "Liu Ya, my mother knows that you are not bad, and you are also dedicated to the good of this family." But they are your father's dearest relatives, and now that it's like this, what can you do if your father is not happy when he comes back? ”

"My dad...... Will you be upset? ”

Liu Ya has no good impression of the cheap father, and through the memory of the original owner, she also understands that Liu Wang's worries are reasonable.

"Otherwise, the wild eggs will be sent to your grandma, and your sister-in-law in the lobby is about to give birth, so we have to send some milk......

"Mother!"

Liu Ya put down the chopsticks with a snap, and said in a slightly cold voice: "I thought that my mother really cared for us, but it turned out that the people in the old house in my mother's heart were more important." ”

"No, why do you think that? You are my mother's life! Liu Wang hurriedly explained, for fear that Liu Ya would misunderstand.

"Grandma is going to sell the eldest sister and the younger sister again, but my mother doesn't hold a grudge and wants to please them, is she afraid that they won't dare to beat our sisters again? Mother, don't forget, we only have one month to raise money, what kind of life does the eldest sister live this month, has my mother thought about it? ”

The cold eyes looked at Liu Wang's family, and seeing that her face was pale, Liu Ya finally couldn't bear to say anything heavier.

But Liu Wang's indiscriminate and excessively weak character must be corrected, otherwise a good life is far away.

"Mother, think about it! We have already separated, and the old mansion doesn't care that we are close relatives. If my mother thinks that they are more important, then I will set up a household by myself, and I don't have to worry about saving my eldest sister. ”

Liu Ya cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks as she spoke, Liu Miao quickly finished the last bite and said, "I'll follow the second sister." ”

Liu Wang looked at the two daughters in disbelief, but listened to Liu Miao muttered softly: "The second sister protects me the most, and she also feels the most sorry for the eldest sister, I am willing to follow the second sister to endure hardships." ”

"You ...... Don't you want a mother? ”

Liu Wang was about to cry when he said it, but Liu Ya couldn't bear to see it, but his mood was a little irritable.

"Mother is our backbone, but when will Mother understand that our three rooms have been separated, even if we starve to death at home, the old house will not take care of it."

"My mother wants to do her filial piety, but in our hearts, the eldest sister is more important, and the people in the old house can't be compared together!"

After Liu Ya finished speaking, she went out with the dishes and chopsticks, and Liu Miao followed.

"Second sister, I don't like them." Liu Miao whispered.

"Second sister knows."

Liu Ya turned around and smiled at Liu Miao, and rubbed her withered yellow hair with one free hand.

After looking at the hall, Liu Ya lowered her voice and said: "Second sister gives you a task, when the second sister goes out to make money in the future, you must watch our mother, and you must not let her give our things to the old house, not a single branch, can you do it?" ”

"Yes, I must be optimistic about our mother!" Liu Miao nodded vigorously.

"Remember, fire prevention, anti-theft and anti-old homes. The second sister has handed over our family and our mother to you, which is more important than making money. ”

Not to mention how entangled Liu Wang's heart was, Liu Ya went to the mountains again in the afternoon, this time he didn't find a wild egg, but a pheasant was found in the trap, and he finally had a harvest.

After a busy day, Liu Ya rested early, and the next day before dawn, he carried the basket on his back and set foot on the road to the town according to the memory of the original owner.

After an hour and a half of driving, Liu Ya arrived in Xiaoyang Town, and set up a stall at the entrance of the vegetable market.

"Everyone, come and see, fresh wild eggs only cost two cents a piece, first come, first served, and you can't buy them if you're late. The pheasant you caught yesterday only costs 18 yuan, you can't buy it at a loss, and you can't buy it at a loss, and you can't buy it......"

After Liu Ya cleared her throat, she shouted loudly.

The pheasant is already dead, so naturally it can't be sold at a high price, but Eighteen Wen is definitely cheap, and it was bought quickly.

The wild eggs were also bought by a woman, and just as Liu Ya was happily preparing to close the stall, she found herself shrouded in a dark shadow.

Liu Ya's hand paused, and he saw several pairs of feet standing in front of his back basket, and some people kept tiptoeing.

With a tight heart, Liu Ya quietly put her hand into the shabby money bag, and before she could make a move, she heard a male voice say, "Where did you come from?" Don't know the rules of this market? ”
