Chapter 45: Going Out
"Shh Tang Daqi asked Tang Hongyu to be quiet, and when he got closer, he said that he would go to see Yuehua's house, if he could call someone to pick him up, of course.
Tang Hongyu rolled her eyes, Pumpkin and Zhou Jingyuan haven't gone out to play yet, now she has space, she doesn't have to worry about planting vegetables and other problems, and when Mengmeng opens more places for her, she will definitely be able to make a fortune.
"Grandpa, do you want to take the three of us out to play? We are in the village every day, and we want to go out. ”
"The three of you together?" Tang Daqi looked at the snow, there had been no snow in the past few days, if Bai Lifeng agreed, he could take the children out.
"Go, country children are not expensive, you three can't make trouble for grandpa when you go, you can't run around, you know?"
"Got it!"
As soon as Bai Lifeng agreed, Tang Hongyu went to wrap some small snacks and put them in a cloth bag, and followed him out. Pumpkin and Zhou Jingyuan walked even more bounced, Tang Daqi followed behind with his hands behind his back and laughed, and it was also a good thing to have children following the excitement.
Tang Hongyu touched the backpack, which was made according to the appearance of a schoolbag, which could put a lot of things. Bai Lifeng's hands are really skillful, she can do it once she says it.
It's a pleasure to go out, and halfway through, the pumpkin is about to be carried. Zhou Jingyuan has a lot of strength, he just carries it on his back and leaves, and he doesn't need Tang Daqi's help.
Shangou Village is not very easy to find, Tang Hongyu asked several villages along the way to find it, Tang Daqi asked them to play at the entrance of the village, he went in and asked.
"Grandpa, you wait for us outside first, we went to explore the way, and found it to call you. The Su family sold their daughter to be a child daughter-in-law, if they knew that Sister Yuehua was in our house, and listened to the people in the village, it would be endless. ”
"No, their family sold their daughter, where would they be embarrassed to come to the door to ask for something."
"Maybe that's a deal!" Tang Hongyu has observed Yuehua, this thirteen-year-old girl, her thoughts are a little mixed, although she is trying to survive, but she also has a lot of ideas.
Children are a blank slate, and they will do whatever adults teach. There is no universal school in this place, and it must be taught by the family, so she has to keep an eye on it.
"Grandpa, my sister is right." Pumpkin and Zhou Jingyuan both agreed, and Tang Daqi had no choice but to let them go to the village first.
Tang Hongyu took out a small doll from the cloth bag and carried it in front of her, which could cover her stomach. Zhou Jingyuan pulled the pumpkin to follow, and they began to walk towards the village.
"Auntie, what kind of village is this? We went out to play, as if we were going the wrong way. Tang Hongyu saw a young daughter-in-law, who seemed to be very easy to get along with, so she asked.
"You three little dolls, why did you come to our ravine village."
"Sangou Village? In the winter, there were no wild vegetables to dig in the mountains, so we went out to play. ”
"Oh~ The road here is not easy to walk, it is all poor ditches, where do you live in your village?"
"We came from Peach Blossom Village, and as we walked, we felt that the road here was easy to walk, so we came over."
"Peach Blossom Village, it's more than ten miles away, you can still walk, walk back along the main road, don't walk when you see the path, walk slowly, it will be there in an hour or two."
"Eh, thank you aunt for showing us the way, it's still early, can we go to the village for a walk?"
"Yes, but the road in the village is not easy to walk, the middle path was damaged by the Li family last time, we all have to walk around, you take this side of the path, don't go to other people's houses."
"Okay, isn't the Li family very bad, if you break the inner road, the aunts will have to take a long detour."
"It's the wife of the Su family, the three dolls in the family don't know how to take care of it, the last time I got a bag of rice, I insisted on giving it to my mother's family to eat, I was beaten by Su Feng, and the two fought in the village, so the road was damaged."
Tang Hongyu pinched the puppet, this little daughter-in-law was really good, and she gave her the news before she asked.
"The Su family? Is there a surname Su here too? ”
"Yes, Su Feng's house is in the middle of the village, you can go home for a walk, the people here are very fierce."
The little daughter-in-law wanted to go to her mother's house to order food, and the family was waiting for the rice to go to the pot, so she had to go to her mother's house to borrow it. Tang Hongyu waited for her to leave, and then asked Zhou Jingyuan to go out and call Tang Daqi over, and they went to see and left.
Fortunately, it was not far away, Tang Daqi heard that he had asked for the way, and followed Zhou Jingyuan. This village is not big, because it is cold outside, they are all poor, and they roll quilts at home to make fires, and there are few people who go out.
After walking for half a stick of incense, they arrived at Su Feng's house. Tang Hongyu was not sure which one it was, and when the four of them stood in the middle and struggled, they heard a family on the opposite side arguing.
"Get out! Two Debt Collectors! With a scolding, two five or six-year-old little dots were thrown out.
"Wow~Woo~" The two children who were thrown out rubbed their tears and cried, their hands were red, they were just playing in the snow, and their parents quarreled, so they were angry.
"Brother and sister, don't cry~" The pumpkin jumped over, and the two little guys who were crying looked at him with gasp.
"Who are you?" The little girl asked first, she turned her head to look at the other three people, and when she saw the puppet Tang Hongyu was holding in her arms, her eyes widened, and she especially wanted to play with it.
Zhou Jingyuan pulled Tang Hongyu back and protected her behind him. Tang Hongyu liked these two little brothers very much, but fortunately they stayed at that time, and they knew that they wanted to protect their sister at a young age.
"We came to the village for a walk, and in the winter, when it was cold at home, we went out to play." Pumpkin sat with them, and his clothes were warm, not cold.
"Your clothes are so pretty." The little boy pointed to the pumpkin and Zhou Jingyuan's clothes, the clothes on his body were black and smelly, his father didn't care, and his sister was sent away without washing clothes.
"It's all made for us by my grandmother and sister, brother, how do you call it?"
"It's good, we don't have a grandmother, and my sister was sold by my father." The little boy began to gasp again: "My name is Su Jinjin, and my sister's name is Su Yueyue." ”
Pumpkin nodded, turned his face to look at Tang Daqi, Tang Daqi was lying on the broken bamboo fence to watch, the first time he saw such a dilapidated house, no wonder Yuehua was sold to the pillar as a child daughter-in-law, and he didn't dare to go home after being saved.
Tang Hongyu saw that they were pitiful, and took out two pieces of Douhuang shortbread from the cloth bag, Su Jinjin and Su Xiaohua ate more fragrant than anyone else, and they gnawed with their mouths, and after eating, they didn't wipe their mouths, and were about to reach out and ask for some more food.
"Hey, they're all gone?" Su Yueyue looked everywhere, where were the shadows of pumpkins!
"Let's go! They carried cloth bags and held rag dolls, they must all be delicious, let's order them again, otherwise we will really faint from hunger! ”
Su Jinjin pulled Su Yueyue to find someone, and ran around the village without seeing anyone. Just now, Zhou Jingyuan's head was turning fast, worried that they would come to eat again, so he slipped away while the two of them were eating.
