Chapter 4: Return to the Wood Family
Mu Xiu looked at Mu Shui and decided to believe him once, if he went back and was still the same as before, then she would leave this house with this sister, anyway, she had space enough to support the two of them.
In this way, Mu Shui took the baby and returned home with Mu Xiu.
The three brothers of the Mu family have not separated yet, they all live together, the three sons of the Mu family, the eldest son of the Mu family, Mu Shengjia gave birth to two sons and a daughter, and the younger son Mu Gen family also has a son and a daughter, only the second Mu Shui family has no son.
Mu Xiu followed Mu Shui, and as soon as he stepped into the gate of Mu's house, he saw Mrs. Mu, her aunt Liu Yumei, and her aunt Wang Guiying all sitting in the main house, looking at them.
"Xiu, you take your sister back to your mother first." Mu Shui handed the baby to Mu Xiu, and after explaining a few words, he walked towards the main house by himself.
"You damn girl, bring the child over!" Mrs. Mu yelled at Mu Xiu, but Mu Xiu pretended not to hear it, and ran towards her room as soon as she slipped through the smoke.
Mu Shui's family has two thatched houses, and there is a stinky ditch next to it, which is not only dark and damp, but also always smells, especially in summer, and there are more mosquitoes than elsewhere.
Mu Xiu entered the room, Zhou Shuilian was resting on the bed, she opened her eyes when she heard the sound, and saw Mu Xiu coming back with the child, she was excited to lift the quilt and rush out of bed.
"Mother, you lie down, my sister is fine." Mu Xiu hurriedly stepped forward and handed the baby to Zhou Shuilian.
It may be that the mother and daughter are connected, the little baby has been asleep, but as soon as she arrived in Zhou Shuilian's arms, she immediately opened her eyes, looked at Zhou Shuilian with her eyes, and then cried wow-wow-wow.
Zhou Shuilian was distressed, she lifted her clothes, and held the little baby to feed, the little baby seemed to smell the fragrance of milk, she arched her head, and then choked on her food, and sucked hard.
Zhou Shuilian showed a hint of a smile, then she looked at Mu Xiu, stretched out her hand towards her, and gently touched the bruises on her head.
"Xiu, are you okay, do you have a headache? Thank you so much. Zhou Shuilian said with some distress.
"I'm fine." Mu Xiu met Zhou Shuilian's somewhat loving gaze, she was a little uncomfortable for a while, her head was slightly tilted, she hadn't felt this kind of warmth for many years.
Zhou Shuilian seemed to feel Mu Xiu's dodge, and she couldn't help but say with red eyes: "Xiu, don't worry, my mother will definitely protect you and Xiao Nan this time, if they dare to drive you away, my mother will definitely not agree!" ”
"Really?" Mu Xiu looked at the weak Zhou Shuilian, in her memory, this mother was a soft character, Mu Xiu thought about Zhou Shuilian's past temperament, and really didn't have much hope for her.
"Really." Zhou Shuilian looked at the little baby girl who had fallen asleep in her arms, and then looked at Mu Xiu's bruised forehead, and a determined look appeared in her eyes.
"Okay, I believe you, I'll go ahead and see what Daddy is doing." Mu Xiu decided to see the performance of Mu Shui and Zhou Shuilian, and then decide whether to help them or not.
After all, the original owner is no longer there, and now Mu Xiu not only has no relationship with Mu Shui and his wife in blood, but also emotionally, she still has the space to defy the sky, and she can live well alone.
If it weren't for Mu Xiu's protection of the little girl, she wouldn't want to return to this Mu family at all.
"Let's go, my mother will go with you." Zhou Shuilian realized that Mu Shui did not appear together, and she knew after a little thought that Mu Shui must have been shouted by Mrs. Mu at this time, and she was about to get out of bed when she lifted the thin quilt.
Mu Xiu looked at Zhou Shuilian, who was still stained with blood on her body, and felt a little unbearable, this woman has been a cow and a horse for half her life, and no one helped her clean up after giving birth.
"You'd better take good care of your sister, I'll come back when I go." After Mu Xiu finished speaking, he ran towards the main house.
As soon as Mu Xiu walked to the door of the main house, she heard a crisp slap, she immediately stopped, leaned against the wall and secretly looked in, only to see Mu Shui kneeling in front of Mrs. Mu, covering her face with her right hand, and Mrs. Mu was standing in front of Mu Shui with an angry face.
It seems that it was Mrs. Mu who slapped Mu Shui just now...... Mu Xiu shrank back again......
"I'm not dead yet, you dare to be disobedient! I'm! Mrs. Mu covered her heart and said bitterly.
"Mother, don't be angry, the second uncle can't think about it for a while." Aunt Liu Yumei's voice rang out.
"What's not to think about, I can't raise so many money-losing goods at home."
"Mother, this child is what I and Xiulian have been looking forward to for so many years, and it is also the flesh and blood of the Mu family, please keep her." Mu Shui said sullenly.
"Phew, I gave birth to a daughter and died in the past, it's not too unlucky, this time I gave birth to a daughter, Zhou Shuilian is going to break your vein! Listen to my mother's words, drive Zhou Shuilian and these two stinky girls away, and raise them is really a waste of food. Mrs. Mu thought of Zhou Shuilian and Mu Xiu, and Mu Shui was so big, so she disobeyed her twice, once to let him divorce Zhou Shuilian, and once to adopt Mu Xiu.
For the sake of two outsiders, she dared to go against her will, so Mrs. Mu was very resentful in her heart.
"Mother, Xiulian, they left this house, how can they live!" Mu Shui's tone was pleading.
"Then I don't care, I'll get rid of it anyway!" After Mrs. Mu finished speaking, there was silence in the main room.
"Second uncle, my mother actually didn't mean to drive away her younger siblings, after all, after so many years, cats and dogs will also have feelings......" Liu Yumei suddenly opened her mouth to break the silence.
"Yumei you!" Mrs. Mu interrupted Liu Yumei's words in surprise.
Liu Yumei pulled Mrs. Mu and continued, "Second uncle, Xiu is fourteen years old this year, it's better to set her up a mother-in-law first, and then get a dowry, wouldn't it be much easier for the second uncle to raise a little girl, and Xiu can also have his own home, do you say that's the reason." ”
When Mu Xiu heard Liu Yumei's words, she was so angry that she almost vomited blood, she wanted to marry her off at the age of fourteen, and this kind of shameless words were also due to her.
"Well, that's what I meant." Mrs. Mu was originally a little dissatisfied with Liu Yumei, but after listening to what Liu Yumei said, she nodded again and again, she was so angry just now that she forgot that Mu Xiudu was fourteen years old, and it was indeed too cost-effective to get out, it was better to marry out and get a dowry.
"Mother, sister-in-law, Xiu is only fourteen years old!" Mu Shui looked at the two of them with some incredulity.
"What's wrong with being fourteen, when I married your father, I wasn't only fourteen!" Mrs. Mu scoffed.
"What age is that, what age is it now!" Mu Shui retorted.
