Chapter 092: Ancestor Worship (I)
Fan Xiaomi was stunned, she hurriedly asked Aunt Lin: "Auntie, can you tell me carefully?" ”
"What's not to be able to do with this? You don't know, you are treating the disease in front, and your father and mother are going to ask for money on the back foot... It has spread all over several villages in Fangyuan, and the dead are lost! But they don't think that they don't do the work in the fields, so they just go and ask who you have saved, so that they can ask for money! It's true, during this time, they asked for a lot of money, what should I do, if I don't give it, your mother will scold the street, and you can stand at the gate of someone else's house and scold for most of the day, without a break in the middle..."
Fan Xiaomi could imagine that Peng Sanniang didn't want to be skinny and shameless, as long as money, she nodded slightly, "It seems like something they can do!" But they are only bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, I told my patients, if you don't give it, you really can't do it, and you will beat people out! ”
"About half a month ago, they came back from the town, saying that they had scraped together enough money and were going to the town to buy a shop to live in... In the first category, your mother's character, you also know, they shouted all over the village, saying that they were going to live in the town, and within a few days, your sister-in-law began to vomit and became pregnant! Later, her own mother came
A trip to our village, our two families are close, I looked, things are not simple, that day I heard your father say something, only ten taels of silver, said it was less, I was worried about them... How many of your sisters, the eldest one was only six years old, and they were sold by them, and they lost their conscience, how can they say that they were sold? It's one thing to have a hard time at home, it's good to be decent, there is no shortage of food or clothing, how can you sell your child..."
Aunt Lin muttered, Fan Xiaomi personally sent her to the mill, and then turned around and went home, but in her heart, she had already raised her vigilance against the Fan family.
Walking and walking, Fan Xiaomi found that someone was following behind her, and when she turned around, she didn't see anyone, at first, she thought it was a few gangsters in the village, and her heart rose to her throat.
I can't help but recall that a few years ago, Fan Xiaomi went to the river alone to wash clothes in the evening, and when she came back, she met a few bachelors in the village, and was teased and insulted by them.
Thinking of this, she took out a long bamboo pole from the fence on the side of the road without a trace and held it in her hand, as long as this way, she could feel a little at ease
Some.
She quickened her pace, and the footsteps behind her couldn't help but speed up, she took a deep breath, and quickly hid in a house next to her, her body was clinging to the wooden wall, her breath was short, she couldn't help but reach out to cover her mouth, she didn't dare to probe, for fear of being detected by the people behind her.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, getting closer and closer, Fan Xiaomi couldn't help biting her lip and clenching the bamboo pole in her hand.
When the footsteps came to her, she did not hesitate, raised the bamboo pole, and beat it hard, she gritted her teeth and closed her eyes, no matter who it was, following her, she must not be well-intentioned!
Fan Xiaomi hit it again and again, it was very heavy, and she could hear the muffled sound of the bamboo pole falling on the back of the person!
"Fan Xiaomi, what are you doing!"
Fan Zhigao's voice!
When Fan Xiaomi opened his eyes, he saw Fan Zhigao with his hands raised, protecting his head, his face was dark, his eyes were as big as copper bells, and he looked at Fan Xiaomi viciously: "What are you doing beating Lao Tzu?" You are crazy! If you do it again, Lao Tzu will kill you with two fists! ”
"Fan Zhigao, why are you?"
Fan Xiaomi's heart gradually calmed down, how could Fan Zhigao follow him? What does he want to do?
Subconsciously, Fan Xiaomi remembered Aunt Lin's words, something is not right with the Fan family recently, indeed, something is wrong!
Fan Zhigao's mind turned quickly, and he immediately replied: "Why don't you eat, Lao Tzu is looking for you to go back to eat, you don't say a word, raise the bamboo pole and beat me, I think you are crazy!" Starve you to death, cheap hooves, born cheap hooves, you deserve it..."
What should he deserve, Fan Zhigao didn't say anything, he flicked his sleeves fiercely, strode in the direction of Fan's house, took two steps, didn't hear footsteps behind him, he couldn't help but turn around and stare at Fan Xiaomi: "What are you still stupid about?" Wait for Lao Tzu to carry you back? Hurry up and get me back, don't eat, I'll make Lao Tzu come out and call you, and you're still dragging it, I see that you don't go to the house for three days, go back and see how Lao Tzu cleans you up, cheap hooves..."
Fan Zhigao scolded as he walked back, and he would glance back at Fan Xiaomi from time to time to see if she had kept up with him.
Fan Xiaomi remained silent, her mind was spinning a thousand times, what could they do to her now? What other benefits can this body bring to them? Did you sell yourself?
Fan Xiaomi took a deep breath, it seems that she has to go back tonight and talk to Fan Fucai.
Back at Fan's house, Peng Sanniang really kept food for her, and when she came back, a big bowl of rice was put in front of her: "Oh, now that I'm so good at learning, I dare to run out, my mother sees that you owe a beating..."
Before Peng Sanniang's words were finished, she heard Fan Dali say: "Okay, what to do, it's not early, let her take it to the back to eat, don't say that our family abuses her, when the relatives and neighbors see it, gossip, it's not good!" ”
Peng Sanniang flicked her sleeves and didn't say a word, Fan Xiaomi took the meal and returned to the back with Fan Fucai, how could Fan Xiaomi not eat, she didn't eat, can she not eat this in her stomach? It's just that she didn't dare to eat the food given by the Fan family, so she took out the cake she baked at the master's place, put it on the hot rice to heat it, and drank it with water.
Fan Xiaomi asked Fan Fucai: "Grandpa, do you know that the relatives from Wu Yuanzhi's mother's house will come tomorrow?" ”
Fan Fucai nodded: "I know, this is a big deal, your sister-in-law has been married for more than a year, and there is no news until now, and her mother's side is also very anxious, it just so happens that our family wants to worship our ancestors, and they came to take a look." ”
"Grandpa, what if... I said if they want to be bad again, will you come with me? ”
"Let's go?" Fan Fucai took a deep breath: "Xiaomi, what are you thinking about all day, you have also seen... Although the food at home is not as good as your master's house, this is our home, and your surname is Fan, right? Where do you want to go? Where can we go? Besides, your sister-in-law is pregnant, and they... They're also changing, your father also said, what about them, they can't pull down their faces, but in the future, they will definitely be good to you slowly, you are now out of business, you can make money, your father and mother they... Won't sell you! ”
"You believe it?"
Fan Fucai nodded, he didn't see the disappointment hidden in Fan Xiaomi's eyes, perhaps, in his heart, he hoped that his family would be prosperous, but some people had cold blood in their bones, and they couldn't cover the heat no matter what!
