Chapter 6 Rush to the firewood room
Xia He lay on the kang by himself, with only the big yellow dog by his side.
Shunzi settled in the ground, leaving himself alone in the Liu family, how will his life continue in the future? This has become the top priority that Xia He must think about now.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Liu family is not there, let's think about the future! Whether the people of the Liu family can let her lie quietly here when they come back is unknown.
Counting on his fingers, the fetus in his womb has been more than seven months, Xia He thought that it was time to start preparing some applications for the baby, and when the baby was born, there would be nothing!
Now that the original owner is in a situation, Xia He thinks that no one can prepare these for her!
The husband didn't leave anything of value for himself, so what should I do? Xia He lay on the kang and was anxious.
Look around the house, blackened earthen walls. The corners of the shed are covered with dense cobwebs. There were a few hare skins piled up next to the bed, and there was a crimson kang cabinet on the kang, on which were double-washed and whitish-red quilts were stacked, and a yellow cloth bag hung on the wall above the quilt, and the cloth bag was covered with dust, which seemed to have not been touched for a long time.
Xia He supported himself and crawled to the side of the cabinet, opened the cabinet door to look inside, and found that it contained clothes and needlework.
Xia He searched for the memories of the original owner, these were all used by her usual wear, took out the clothes, and found that the clothes were very old and could not be worn again.
Touching it down, in the end, Xia He simply climbed into the cabinet, and in the corner of the cabinet inside, he suddenly found a small bag of hard things, Xia He took it out and took a closer look, it turned out to be a little scattered silver tael, Xia He was excited, and quickly looked left and right and didn't know where to hide.
Holding the silver two and standing up, he dusted off the yellow cloth bag hanging on the top of the cabinet, took it off, saw what was inside, reached out and pulled it in, there was nothing, Xia He was very disappointed, but it was not bad to have a backpack.
He lay down again, and tucked the only pieces of silver into the sleeves of his garment. Looking at the hare skins again, Xia He thought that these skins could also be exchanged for some silver.
Thinking about it, Xia He fell asleep.
"You shameless little slut, we're all busy, you're still sleeping in the house in broad daylight! Why don't you get up and pour the house for the old lady, this is not the place for you to stay! Xia He was tired and sleepy Zhengxiang, only to hear a loud scolding, which frightened Xia He's heart and woke up from his sleep.
When I opened my eyes, I saw my mother-in-law standing at the door with her waist crossed, still holding a broom pimple in her hand, and was about to step forward to hit Xia He.
Xia He was so frightened that he hurriedly got up and whispered, "Mother-in-law is back, I'll go to work in the field." After saying that, he stretched out his legs to find his shoes, and he was about to go out.
At this time, Liu Li said loudly: "From today on, you will go to live in the firewood house, it is a waste for you to live in such a big house alone, this house belongs to Lizi, and Lizi is going to marry and start a family." Hurry up and take everything with you, I'll be angry when I look at it! After speaking, he threw Xia He's quilt outside the door.
"Mother, I'll clean up by myself, I'll move out, I don't have to do it." Xia He had already guessed that there would be such a day, so he calmly packed up the quilt and clothes, including a few rabbit skins and yellow cloth bags, along with the bronze mirror in the corner of the wall, and put them in the quilt, and dragged the clothes and quilts to the firewood room.
Xia He is no stranger to this firewood house, she lived here when she was a maid, and her mother-in-law also threw her here when she was rescued by Liu Feng on the mountain.
Put away the application things, Xia He looked at the damp and dark firewood room, touched the cold fire kang, and thought that the house should be cleaned up, and then burn the fire kang to make it dry and warm, although it is early autumn, you will get sick if you stay in a humid environment for a long time, Xia He was a lovely and clean girl in her previous life.
Just do it, if you want to ice yourself out of the sick, it's over, who can care about her now? I can't help but think of the situation when Junko was there, and before I knew it, tears overflowed again.
Wiping away his tears, looking for firewood to burn the kang, the house was full of firewood and grass against the wall, Xia He picked up some firewood, squatted on the edge of the stove pit and lit a fire.
Since the kang had not burned for a long time, when Xia He put the firewood in the stove and lit it, black smoke immediately came out of the stove pit, which made Xia He cough vigorously.
Quickly opened the dilapidated wooden door, black smoke came out of the firewood room, and the big yellow dog and the little flower cat barked wildly.
At this time, Liu Li ran from the upper room to this side, looked at the black smoke coming out, leaned on the door and looked into the firewood room, and shouted while watching: "What's the matter, what's burning?" What's the moth? ”
Hearing the shout, Xia He hurriedly stood up from the side of the stove pit, ran out of the door and said to his mother-in-law: "Mother-in-law, I see that this house is too damp, so I take firewood to burn the kang." ”
"Little wife, are you going to burn the Liu family? Do you still burn the kang on such a hot day? You're looking at a lot of firewood, aren't you? Hurry up and extinguish it! As he spoke, he quickly went into the house and scooped water and poured it in the stove pit, and the fire was extinguished, and the ashes left behind rose with green smoke.
The second son and the third son of the Liu family rushed to hear the shouting and inquiry, and when they saw this scene, they heard Liu Fuzi scolding and scolding: "How much firewood did you hit, and you didn't ask if it was yours to burn the fire?" Are you tired of staying in Liu's house, you don't want to stay here and get out of here, kill my eldest brother, and kill the whole family? ”
Xia He wiped her smoked tears, listening to the scolding of the Liu family, her heart was dripping blood! scolded in his heart: "This family is still not human, does it really drive me to a dead end?" ”
The angry Xia He looked at his mother-in-law and said: "I am just burning the kang, and I am also afraid of pulling out the fetus in the womb, you don't think that I Xia He has been a cow and a horse in the Liu family all these years, and you should also read the love of Shunzi, as well as your unborn grandchildren and nephews." ”
Xia He cried out angrily after speaking, and said loudly: "When will I eat and drink for nothing, and don't I do all the dirty work?" ”
After shouting, Xia He felt so comfortable, and finally said what he had been aggrieved in his heart for a long time.
"Oh, you still dare to talk to the old lady? Don't want to live anymore?! After that, Liu Li rushed to Xia He, pulled up the collar and slapped him a few times, only to make Xia He turn around in place several times.
Liu Li still didn't understand his hatred, so he touched the burning stick standing in the corner of the wall and hit his head and face.
Xia He hurriedly dodged Liu Li's stick and shouted, "Are you going to kill me?" ”
"I'm going to kill you, a wretched spirit, today, so that my son can be buried!" As he spoke, he picked up his stick again.
"Don't fight, don't beat my sister-in-law anymore, she is still pregnant, don't look at the face of the monk and see the face of the Buddha, for the sake of my eldest brother, don't treat my sister-in-law like this anymore!" The sister-in-law, Liu Qiaofeng, heard the shouting of the firewood room in the backyard and hurriedly ran over, and saw that the old lady was beating her sister-in-law, so she angrily shouted and grabbed the stick.
