18. Come to someone

Zhao Shufen didn't care about this, she said in a demonic voice: "Xiaoling, you said that you don't know many people outside, so can you go and talk to your aunt and ask her to help me introduce me to one in their village, your aunt's village is much more prosperous than ours, no matter how they say there, they can eat a mouthful of white rice, unlike us here, what they eat every day is corn paste, and your aunt's corn paste there is used to feed pigs."

Zhao Shufen was stunned and bent on marrying outside, Zhao Xiaoling was made one head and two big by Zhao Shufen, and she could only blame herself, she brainwashed Zhao Shufen before, and told her what the outside is better than the village, and now she doesn't come to ask her to go to anyone.

Zhao Xiaoling can see that if she doesn't agree to Zhao Shufen today, she won't give up.

"Alright! Xiaofen, if you have the chance, I will help you ask my aunt to see if there is a suitable future life for you in their village, if you have it, you are lucky, and if you don't have that, there is no way. ”

Zhao Shufen breathed a sigh of relief, "If not, then I will accept my fate." ”

Zhao Shufen picked up the water to Zhao Xiaoling's house and poured it into the water tank.

"The water tank is not full yet, I'll help you pick it up again."

Zhao Xiaoling couldn't twist her, so she went with her.

Zhao Shufen picked two more trips before filling the water tank of Zhao Xiaoling's house.

Early the next morning, Zhao Xiaoling got up to clean up the house, heated the pheasant soup and cakes left over from yesterday, and her grandmother also got up and ate chicken soup and instant noodles, with a ruddy complexion.

Zhao Xiaoling said: "Grandma, you rest at home, I'll go to the field to see if the wheat can be harvested."

"I went to see it yesterday, and I can harvest it a long time ago, so let's go harvest together today!"

"Grandma, you are not in good health, so stay at home with peace of mind! I'll just go alone, and besides, the people who went to report the crime yesterday will probably come back with people today, and when the time comes, they will come to understand the situation, and there must be someone at home. ”

Grandma agreed to report the case yesterday in a hurry, but now that she has calmed down, she feels a little uneasy.

"Xiaoling, will the public security really come?"

"Yes! As long as the crime is reported, and it is a homicide, they will come and investigate. ”

"Will that take Liu Guihua away?"

"If it was really her poison, she would definitely be arrested."

"How will you punish her if you take her away? Will she be shot? ”

"You can't be shot, it's certain to go to jail."

Grandma was a little apprehensive, "I just meant to scare her, but I didn't expect to put her in jail." ”

Zhao Xiaoling hated iron and said: "Grandma, she is also to blame for being imprisoned, she wants to put you to death, such a person should be shot even if she is shot, and she is not worthy of your sympathy for her."

Grandma Zhao remembered yesterday's incident, and her heart palpitated, if her granddaughter didn't bring Dr. Niu back in time, she would have died a long time ago, so she silently agreed with her granddaughter's words, but she was still uneasy.

"Grandma, when someone from the public security comes, what they ask you, you must tell the truth, don't hide it for her."

"Xiaoling, Liu Guihua is the grandmother of three children after all, let her go to jail, okay?"

Zhao Xiaoling was so angry that she paused.

"Grandma, I don't know how to say that you're good, your character is too weak, that's why you've been bullied to this point, Liu Guihua wants your life, but you can't even bear to let her be imprisoned, if I can't come back yesterday, she killed you, and I also have a hard life, so I can only go to my aunt, even my aunt, and make my aunt have a bad time, can you still forgive Liu Guihua for such a result? Tolerance to others is cruelty to yourself, why don't you understand! ”

Thinking of the tragic fate of her previous life, Zhao Xiaoling couldn't help but feel sad and burst into tears.

Grandma Zhao panicked when she saw her granddaughter crying, and she hurriedly wiped Zhao Xiaoling's tears with her sleeve.

"Good granddaughter, don't cry, don't cry, grandma is fine, grandma won't leave you alone. Grandma is indeed old and confused. Do what you say! Grandma has been too tolerant of Liu Guihua over the years, so she has let you be wronged, this time, she is too much, and I am no longer polite, what to do, she deserves to be imprisoned. ”

Zhao Xiaoling wiped away her tears and said: "I went to the field to cut wheat, you take care of your body at home, if the public security people come, you ask people to go to the field and call me back."

"Okay, I'll ask you to come back, I can't handle it alone."

Zhao Xiaoling took water and a cake, put on a straw hat, and took a sickle, and went to the field.

The land is all cultivated by their own families, the mountains are mostly rocky, and there is a lack of water, the land is very thin, the harvest of long crops is not good, during the turmoil, other places have classified the land as collectives, but Zhaojiagou does not, there are still various kinds of land. Because there are no landlords in Zhaojiagou, these lands are not good land, as long as they are willing, anyone can reclaim a piece.

In the early 80s, when other places re-implemented land contracting responsibilities and divided the land lively, Zhaojiagou was very calm, and people repeated their daily lives in this barren land.

At the beginning, it was cold in the morning, Zhao Xiaoling worked very happily, and gradually, the sun came out, and the day was getting hotter and hotter, and Zhao Xiaoling stood in the field to cut wheat, as if she was roasted by fire in a steamer.

Zhao Xiaoling made a rough estimate in her heart, this season's wheat was harvested and converted into money, but it was only seventy or eighty yuan, for this eighty yuan, she and her grandmother had been carefully serving these wheat for more than five months, this labor cost was too high, and after half a year of hard work, the harvest could only be regarded as half-full.

The result of Zhao Xiaoling's calculation is that it is not cost-effective to farm here.

After harvesting the wheat this time, I will no longer farm the land, there are thousands of ways to make a living, and farming here is the best policy. Farming here can only be doomed to poverty for a lifetime.

Zhao Xiaoling's decision to leave here and develop outside was even more determined.

At noon, Zhao Xiaoling drank all the water, ate the cakes she brought, and decided to go home and wait for the afternoon to be cooler before cutting, she didn't want to get heat stroke because of this.

On Zhao Xiaoling's way home, several children rushed over and shouted loudly from afar: "Sister Xiaoling, there are people from your house, there are four or five people from outside."

It must have been the person who reported the crime who brought someone back.

Zhao Xiaoling quickly ran forward, "Did my grandma call you here?" ”

"Yes, yes, your grandmother asked us to call us."

Zhao Xiaoling listened and ran to the village with the children, and soon left the children far behind.

Before she got home, Zhao Xiaoling saw many people surrounding her home.

Seeing Zhao Xiaoling coming back, people took the initiative to make way for her.

In the courtyard, several people in white uniforms were talking about something around Grandma Zhao.

When Grandma Zhao saw Zhao Xiaoling, she greeted her and said, "Xiaoling, are you finally back?"
