Chapter 385: The Return of the Snow (2)
Xue Wu understands that her grandfather's decision is genuinely for the good of her family! How could his father and mother withstand Bozhong's surging hatred? I couldn't help but persuade him: "Dad, grandfather and uncle are reasonable-"
"Evil girl!" Cheng Lan flicked his sleeves and scolded, "It's all because you are useless, you have caused me to lose face, and now you want to ruin my career?!" ”
Xuewu didn't dare to squeak immediately.
The old man was so angry that his eyebrows stood up! Why can't the second child see the situation clearly? His career has ruined Xuewu, and he retreated in shame, and he can finally save some face for the Cheng family! Who knew he was so ignorant! There was a tired tone in his tone for a while: "I have said everything that needs to be said." Since you are bent on going your own way, let it be! ”
That night, escorted by several family members, Xuewu left the capital.
The British government was immediately informed.
"Want to escape?"
In just a few days, Bozhong's cheeks were thin, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were slightly full of anger.
"Shizi? Do you want to send someone to rob her? ”
"Not necessarily!" The corners of Bo Zhong's lips twitched, "Someone will entertain her for me first!" ”
Xuewu's journey back to her hometown has endured all the hardships! From time to time, all kinds of accidents were encountered, the carriage was destroyed two or three times, and thieves robbed the road, which was terrifying step by step! Xue Wu was frightened and started a fever halfway! The mother-in-law who escorted her was angry and helped her find a doctor for diagnosis and treatment, and after prescribing a few doses of medicine, the fever subsided, but Xuewu's delicate face grew countless pustules, bleeding pus and blood! It took more than a month to close the scar!
When she looked in the mirror and saw that her tender white skin had become pitted, and the deep and shallow marks completely ruined her once peerless beauty, she could no longer support it, and smashed everything in front of her frantically in the constant screams!
Her beauty is her biggest reliance, and without her alluring appearance, she is worse than dead!
The two mothers-in-law were too lazy to persuade her! I know that Zhang Bozhong will take revenge, and I am really ruthless! Cat and mouse teased them all the way, and finally came to the trick!
However, Xuewu is reluctant to die after all!
When she arrived at the old house in Jiangxi in a daze, she was already a skinny middle-aged sick woman with an ordinary appearance.
The people in my hometown are honest. Old Man Cheng confessed that she was a sinner woman in the clan, and she didn't need to be served, just settle with ordinary women in the clan. The elders of the clan arranged a dim and narrow room, a pit bed made of yellow mud, a quilt made of old cotton tires, and there was not a single tea bowl intact in sight - the two mothers-in-law did not have their feet on the ground, and Xuewu did not even lift their eyelids.
Holding her breath, the woman gloated and said, "Miss, this house is a little dilapidated, but you can't ask for too much today, right?" As for us, we've delivered you safely to the old mansion. From now on, you will know for yourself! ”
Throwing these words, they fled away from the hut. When he got outside, he took a deep breath: "But when I came out, I was suffocated!" "There was a sour smell in the house, and it was a shame that Xuewu didn't run away!
Cheng Xuewu closed the door expressionlessly, opened her only cage, touched two old cotton clothes, and felt that the silver tickets and gold and silver ingots were still there, and a slight smile appeared on her face. This is her savings over the years, and the amount is not small! It's enough for her to live a less bitter life in this kind of rural place.
She thought that the seventh old lady of the Fangcai clan had divided her two acres of paddy fields, and she didn't expect her to follow her to farm tomorrow, but first hang it at her grandfather's second brother's house, and let them help plant it, so that the two families would share it so that she wouldn't starve to death. However, from Ming'er, the three daughters-in-law of the second grandfather's family will take her to raise chickens and feed pigs, cut grass and cook rice, and be a real peasant girl!
Xuewu touched her cheeks, her face was ruined, she had other skills! With her, she can't handle a mere peasant woman? If only give her a chance, she will be able to escape!
Observing words and looks, she can speak well, and Xuewu, who has a very low posture, really gathered the people around her as scheduled, and they all took pity on her. But it didn't take long for her to find out that it was the work she should do, and she couldn't escape a single thing! Every day from morning to night, even if you can't lift your waist, you have to carry pig food to feed the pigs in the ethnology!
As if she had been warned, no one in her clan would show sympathy for her delicate helplessness anymore. In less than half a year, her shoulders were thick, her waist was thick, her skin had lost its luster, her hair was black, her fingers were rough, and the dirt in her nails couldn't be cleaned! She was horrified to find that it wouldn't be long before she would be much different from the ordinary village women in the village!
Fortunately, she finally found the right target!
The old Xiucai in the ethnology is surnamed Huang, and he has a young son who is sixteen years old, and he is handsome and lovely. Occasionally, when I saw myself working, I showed a look of pity.
When he accidentally discovered that this peasant woman was full of poetry and books, and she was a phoenix in distress, he was shocked!
Xue Wu just instinctively laid a chess piece first. She is convinced that this chess piece will soon be useful!
Because of her good working attitude, the Seventh Old Lady's control over her gradually relaxed, but something more terrible happened! Those singles in the village who can't marry a wife always love to dangle in front of her! Although he didn't dare to move his hands and feet, thinking of their intentions, Xuewu fought all over! Fortunately, there were people arranged by the Seventh Old Lady by her side to keep an eye on her, so that those people had no idea what to do. I can find out from a few sisters-in-law of the second grandfather's family that there are really many people who want to marry her as a wife! Although there are a lot of pockmarks on the face, it doesn't affect other uses, does it?
Marry a clay leg, hold two in three years?
Xue Wu sneered! Grandmother's punishment is really heartbreaking!
She originally wanted to live for two or three years, and then make plans after the people in the capital forgot about her, but in this situation, the Cheng family really wants her to be a peasant woman for the rest of her life!
Fortunately, after the spring thunder, she found a glimmer of life!
At the beginning of spring, the dense spring bamboo shoots and various precious mushrooms in the nearby wild mountains and forests are a rare opportunity for the villagers to make money. After the first spring rain of this year, the women and children in the village were already digging bamboo shoots in the mountains with bamboo buds on their backs!
Mixed with the villagers, she has been able to skillfully use all kinds of small farm tools, a shovel quickly cut away the soil, pick out a young bamboo shoot, and throw it into the basket behind her.
For five days in a row, as the bamboo shoots were digging and collecting fungi, Xue Wu had quietly touched the general situation of the outer edge of the mountain forest, and explored some terrain from the villagers. Relying on her extraordinary memory, she went back and drew a figure with charcoal. In the evening, when I went to the clan school to feed the pigs, I secretly pressed a strip of cloth into a crack in a stone.
After a few more days, she put on the thick cotton coat in the cage, put on a shabby coat, and continued to dig bamboo shoots up the mountain with a bamboo basket on her back. While laughing with the villagers, she gradually entered the depths of the dense forest, with fewer and fewer people around her, and her steps became faster and faster. Until she found a cliff - she looked around and heard only the wind.
He put down the bamboo tree, took out a half-old cloth shoe from it, and threw it on the edge of the cliff. He tore off a piece of cloth from his skirt and threw it down the cliff, watching it hang on the branch that leaned out of the cliff! Then, she picked a boulder and threw it down the cliff with all her might, screaming at the same time: "Ahhh
Before the screams could attract the villagers, she fled into the depths of the forest! Orion's daughter-in-law in the village said that there were several wooden houses in it that Orion used to rest! She only needs to hide for a day or two to get back to life!
