Flower stick candy, like a cotton stalk of small wooden sticks, snow-white small cylinders with a few red lines drawn, particularly sweet, delicate teeth are rotten, still feel delicious.

At that time, the fields needed to be used to grow food, so there were very few people who could grow fruits, and at most they could plant a few orange trees in their own fields in front of and behind the house, and there was really nothing to eat as a snack.

"Sister Jiao, in Witch Liu's garden, the oranges are so big." Lingmei said.

How big is it? I don't know! Never eaten before.

"Then let's pick two."

The two small figures dodged the dog watching the garden, slowly and carefully slid down the hillside, and picked a few small green things called oranges, but they were caught by Liu Youpo.

Liu Demon Woman, who has an only daughter, found a son-in-law who is also surnamed Ren, is a pig slaughterer, can be regarded as a wealthy family, and there is a house of Jiaojiao's eighth uncle between Jiaojiao's family.

As for why she is called Liu Demon Po, Jiaojiao doesn't know, she has always heard others call her that.

The two of them were obediently escorted home by Liu Youpo and waited for the adults to come back to solve it.

Adult, my mother is back, and Jiaojiao was beaten violently.

The third grandfather heard Jiaojiao crying, and angrily scolded Huang on the ridge: "You kill her!" Are you going to stew her and eat it? Two green fruits that can't be eaten, picked and picked, what's the big deal, make it, and come to the door to complain? When you were young, you only picked the two of you, and when you grew up, it was not uncommon for you to give them to eat. ”

Lingmei went home and was beaten, Jiaojiao didn't know, and she didn't ask, anyway, she was beaten, she was miserable, and the red marks on her whole body were beaten by sticks, and it took half a month to dissipate.

Since then, Jiaojiao has never picked other people's things again.

It was hot at noon, Jiaojiao quietly went out and ran out to play with Lingmei at the fifth father's house opposite, and told Lingmei how fierce she was beaten by the way.

The second father and the fifth father share a yard and a gate to enter and exit, and they arrive by a straight road from Jiaojiao's house.

"Jiaomei, you're here, come quickly." Sister Fang, Sister Qin, Sister Ling, and Sister Hui all sat on a bamboo mat spread on the ground and talked.

Everyone expressed deep sympathy for Jiaojiao and scolded Liu Demon Woman together, but Sister Fang and Liu Demon Woman's granddaughter were classmates.

"Let me tell you, I'm embarrassed to go to the Min family, didn't that crazy wife of Min San give birth to a daughter", Sister Fang said.

Cangtian Village, there are two surnames, the Min family occupies the top, the Ren family occupies the bottom, and there are only a few families of the opposite sex surnamed Li, Niu, and Liu, but the captain of Cangtian Village is the Li family of the opposite sex, it is said that the Min family and the ancestors of the Ren family are feuding, so the Ren and Min families cannot intermarry.

"Hmm." Several people agreed, all anxiously waiting for the following.

"Min San took his madman wife to work in the mountains and put his daughter at home, and as a result, the rat ran out and gnawed his daughter's fingers, nose, mouth, and also gnawed her forehead and scalp off."

Several people gasped and snorted.

"Why? Can rats eat people? Didn't the child cry? Didn't the adults hear it? Jiaojiao was very anxious.

"Why can't rats eat people, babies have the smell of milk, just like those newly born piglets, tender, rats are hungry, why don't you eat. It's not that you don't know how poor Min San is, he doesn't even have a mud-walled house, the thatched house is leaking, and the walls are all erected by Huabazi (a rectangular utensil made of bamboo for drying cotton). Sister Fang disagreed.
