Chapter Seventy-Two: Escape
Shandong, Xinghua Village.
This is just a small village in central Shandong, with only a few dozen households, dozens of miles away from the township. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there is only one dirt road that leads to the outside world.
On the surface, the people here are indisputable and conscientious, and the cabbage in the field is lush and thriving, a harmonious scene.
When a ray of morning light pierced the dawn, the distant sky began to turn white, and the day dawned. In the village, a dog barked, and a new day began.
The whole village began to get busy, and in the cabbage field, the crowd was bustling.
In a small two-story building, there was a beautiful and elegant girl, she was wearing a long black dress, shining brightly, standing in front of the window, looking at all this, as if it had nothing to do with her. Her eyes were a little red and swollen, a little bloodshot, a little lost, seven points helpless, three points expectant. It's a complex pair of eyes, and it's a pair of gloomy eyes.
She is Chen Xi.
Chen Xi got up very early today, or rather, she hadn't slept well. In her trepidation, she fell into a deep sleep. In the midst of the rooster and dog barking, she suddenly woke up. After getting up, she stood in front of the window and looked into the distance.
It was dawn, and her face was still a little pale. A new day has nothing to do with her. She stood still, like a sculpture frozen in her soul, motionless. Until a wisp of morning wind blew away a strand of her hair, and her eyelids fluttered slightly.
The wind in July was very light, very warm, and very soft, but at this moment, there was a wind blowing, and she actually felt a little cold, and she couldn't help but clench her arms and hold the jade Guanyin on her neck.
"Brother Yuan!" Chen Xi muttered to herself, this is the name she misses the most, and it is the only person she can think of.
As her gaze turned, her eyes brightened, and in an instant, they became gloomy again......
"Daughter-in-law!"
The door opened, and Liu Lao Er walked in, with a mouthful of big yellow teeth, glanced at Chen Xi, and then withdrew his gaze.
With a frown, Chen Xi turned his head slowly, looked at him calmly, and did not speak.
"Daughter-in-law, you have some breakfast, I'll go to the field first, there are still some cabbages left, I'll go to harvest first, and then I'll come back to accompany you!" Liu Lao Er said with a smile, put the steamed buns and porridge on the table, and before Chen Xi could reply, he had already walked out of the door.
As soon as he left the room, Liu Laoer's face instantly became gloomy, and he clenched his fists. After two locks in a row, his face relaxed slightly, snorted coldly, and strode away.
The door was locked tightly again, and Chen Xi was the only one left in the room.
Chen Xi came to the table and looked at the hot steamed buns and porridge, and lost his mind for a while.
She has become a bird with broken wings, no matter how gorgeous and charming the outside world is, she can only stay in the cage and can't fly out.
When Chen Xi lost his mind, there was a noise outside.
"Yo! Liu Lao Er got up so early! Did you sleep well last night? Tossed a few times! β
"Hey, hey! OK! OK! β
"Your mother-in-law is so delicate, you haven't touched a woman in half your life, don't squeeze you dry all at once, flash your waist!"
"Liu Er, why don't you bring your mother-in-law out! Are you reluctant to let her come out to work? Or last night, I was tossed by you and couldn't get up! β
"She's just here, she's not familiar with it yet, it'll be fine after a while!"
"It's not like you, don't spoil people, run away if you don't pay attention, you have no place to cry!"
"No, we said okay, she will give me a baby......"
"Won't? Just ran once yesterday and did you forget? Are you so fascinated that you have forgotten it! β
"She dares!"
"Hahaha!"
Listening to the discussion outside, Chen Xi felt extremely irritable. Liu Lao Er's eyes when he looked at her just now, although they were fleeting, they couldn't escape her eyes, and that look couldn't wait to swallow her in one bite.
But he couldn't help it, put the breakfast on the table, and left without saying a word, she knew that Liu Lao Er was holding his breath for what happened last night.
She also knew that Liu Lao Er would eat her sooner or later.
"Brother Yuan doesn't know where it is, so I have to think of a way to escape!"
Chen Xi thought, but the door was tightly closed, and even if she had a thousand ideas, she couldn't do anything.
Chen Xi picked up the steamed bun and chewed it slowly. She has no appetite, but she has to eat, one is to live, and more importantly, after eating, Liu Lao Er will feel that she is honest and has no other ideas.
Perhaps, this will give you a chance to escape!
After Chen Xi finished eating, he walked to the window again and looked at the outside world. However, the endless mountains were vast and remote to her......
Time passed slowly, a round of red sun slowly rose, like a shy girl, naΓ―ve and cute, gradually, the sun from red to white, the scorching sun in the sky, became dazzling, she has been slim, all kinds of style, mountains and rivers and the earth are cheering for her.
The sun shone on the second floor, but she couldn't get through a window, because the window of this window was facing the west. The girl in front of the window didn't feel the temperature of the sun at all.
"Is it noon?"
Chen Xi stretched her hand out of the window, the steel bars on the window blocked her delicate body, that beam of sunlight was close at hand, but she couldn't reach it, she couldn't touch it, her hand could only stay in the shadows in the end.
Heavy footsteps sounded, Liu Lao Er walked in again, took a plate of food, glanced at Chen Xi, didn't say a word, turned away, and after going out, the door closed tightly again.
Chen Xi couldn't help but feel a burst of sadness, she knew that Liu Lao Er had a fire wrapped in his heart, and he was trying his best to endure it, but if he couldn't help it, it would undoubtedly be a catastrophe for her.
Chen Xi was silent, finished the meal, returned to the window, and stood motionless.
In silence, the sun was slanting westward, and a ray of sunlight finally shone into the window and shone on Chen Xi's face.
"It's a pity, it's the sunshine at dusk, and although it's beautiful, it's hopeless."
In Chen Xi's thoughts, the sun turned from white to red, turning into an old man in the middle of the wind, she was very reluctant, but in the end, the remnant sun slowly fell into the mountains.
"Daughter-in-law, it's time to eat!"
Liu Lao Er walked in again, but this time, he didn't have any food in his hands.
Chen Xi turned around, glanced at Liu Laoer, and then nodded.
"Let's go, let's go to the living room to eat, I think about it, it's not good to always stuff you here alone!" Liu Lao Er said happily.
"Hmm!" Chen Xi followed him out of the door, his eyes kept turning, looking around, and came to the dining room.
"Come, sit down!" Liu Lao Er pulled a chair and asked Chen Xi to sit down, "This is the first time the two of us have eaten together, and we cooked a few more dishes today!" β
"Hmm!"
"Come on, this is black-bone chicken soup, I've been boiling it for a long time, you drink some to replenish your body." Liu Lao Er sat opposite Chen Xi, "The days to come will be long, if you live a good life with me, I promise that you will not be wronged if you eat and drink well!" β
Chen Xi was silent, lifted the bowl, and took a sip of soup.
"The third Wang next door to me, his daughter-in-law is also from you, I heard that your side, the conditions are not good, you can't eat, after coming here, life is good, she doesn't want to leave now!"
Liu Lao Er raised his wine glass, took a sip of his own thoughts, suddenly stared at Chen Xi, and asked, "Daughter-in-law, have you thought about it?" If we think about it, we'll ...... tonight."
"I'll tell you when I'm ready!" Chen Xi interrupted him and put down the dishes and chopsticks. She didn't dare to imagine if the man in front of her pressed on her......
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but turn over the river and the sea, and suddenly lost my appetite.
"How long will it take? Daughter-in-law, you don't think you've been dragging it! Liu Laoer's eyes became warm, fluttered, and stood up.
Chen Xi was shocked, forced himself to calm down, calmed his face, met his gaze and said, "I said, don't force me!" I'm not trying to drag, it's time to get used to it, I'm all your people, and I can't run, can't you wait for a few days? β
"A few days!" Liu Lao Er gritted his teeth and said, "Other daughters-in-law, as soon as they marry and enter the door, they will have sex immediately, how can they sleep every few days?" Am I not good enough for you? Delicious food and drink are waiting for you. What else do you not be satisfied with? β
"Am I married to you? I was trafficked, not your daughter-in-law! β
Chen Xi said in her heart, she didn't say it, her heart had already leaped 108,000 miles, and she was no longer here.
Seeing that Chen Xi didn't speak, Liu Laoer's eyes flickered non-stop, and finally sat down with a cold snort, raised his wine glass, and drank by himself.
"Ouch!" Suddenly, Liu Lao Er clutched his stomach and screamed in pain.
"What's wrong?" Chen Xi pretended to be panicked and asked.
"Maybe I drank too much last night and had a stomach ache!"
"Why don't you go and rest for a while? I'll clean up here, let's go! Chen Xi stood up, but just didn't approach him.
"Daughter-in-law, I'll go and rest, you won't run away again!" Liu Lao Er looked at Chen Xi and hesitated.
"If you don't run, I don't know where to run if I want to! Go and rest, your body matters! Chen Xi said very seriously, meeting his gaze, not afraid.
"Really?"
"Really! Don't worry! I'll clean it up here! β
"Good! I believe you! Then I'm going to rest! β
"Hmm!"
β¦β¦
Liu Lao Er turned around and left, until she heard the sound of the door closing, Chen Xi exhaled, she sat down, her eyes kept moving, she was thinking about whether to run away!
Because this is an opportunity, and she knows one thing very well, Liu Lao Er will definitely not give her too much time to let her drag it out like this, from the tone of his speech tonight, you have to hear it.
"Let's go!" Chen Xi gritted his teeth and made a decision.
However, she didn't leave immediately, she was wondering if Liu Lao Er was testing her.
After a long time, she still sat quietly.
"Daughter-in-law! Daughter-in-law! Is it still there? Liu Laoer's voice came from the room.
"It's still there, I'm cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, you have a good rest!"
"Oh! It's good you're still here......"
β¦β¦
"Let's go! Now is the time! β
Chen Xi quietly went downstairs, crossed the door, and came to the door.
It was pitch black outside, and there was no one in sight, but her eyes were bright. She knew that this was the time for meals, and there were very few people on the street. She looked at the dirt road at the entrance of the village, her eyes became firm, she took a deep breath, and ran in that direction.
A gust of wind blew her long hair, her black skirt, moving with the wind, and her petite figure disappeared into the darkness......
At the same time, on the Taixin Expressway, a black off-road vehicle was speeding at high speed.
On the wheelhouse, there was a young man, with a narrow and hideous scar on his face, and next to him, there was a dirt dog with a long tongue, lying on the seat.
"From Yucheng to Wuhan, it was already noon, plus in order to get this car, it was delayed for several hours!" The young man slapped the steering wheel fiercely, "From Wuhan to now, it has been 800 kilometers!" And more than a hundred kilometers! β
"Xiaoxi, don't let anything happen to you! Wait for me! Be sure to wait for me! β
The young man held a pair of silver rings in his hands, bowed his head, and kissed them gently.
"Hurry up! Hurry up! β
The young man stepped on the accelerator to the end, and the off-road vehicle roared past on the highway and went straight to Xinghua Village......
