The next morning, Xiao Ru still got up at about six o'clock, and as he did yesterday morning, he went to the vegetable field to water the vegetables, and then chopped firewood, and by the way, he picked pigweed and pulled wild vegetables.

You can't stop shooting pigweed just because your pigs are sold, if that would seem too selfish.

When she came back, Xiaoru met Xiaoruo again at the entrance of the village, Xiaoruo didn't dare to help Xiaoru carry firewood anymore, and the two sisters talked while walking.

When a villager saw it, he smiled and said to Xiao Ruo: "You are a sister, and you don't help your sister carry firewood." ”

Xiao Ru saw that Xiao Ruo's mother-in-law was walking over from the vegetable field with a large basket of vegetables, and deliberately said loudly: "I didn't let my sister help me carry firewood, lest her mother-in-law misunderstand that this bundle of firewood was cut by my sister and given to me, I don't want my sister to be beaten and scolded at her mother-in-law's house for a bundle of firewood and not give me food." ”

Several villagers sighed: "Sister-in-law Liu's mother and son have indeed gone too far. ”

Not far away, Xiao Ruo's mother-in-law's face darkened with anger.

Back at home, Aunt Jiang saw that Xiaoru had beaten a lot of pigweed and came back, knowing that it was for her, so she was very upset: "Xiaoru, your pigs are all sold, you don't need to beat pigweed." ”

Xiaoru took off the firewood on his body: "It's nothing, it's easy to fight, and it will itch if you don't beat it when you see such a piece of green pigweed." ”

After eating, Xiaoru still took Xiaojian to pick peanuts, and when she went out today, she specially brought a bucket.

I was afraid that the kind old man and so on, in the afternoon Xiaoru also finished work earlier than yesterday, and when I passed through the rice field, I saw that the old man had already caught a bucket of eels and waited on the ridge.

Xiao Ru hurriedly greeted Xiao Jian and said thank you.

The old man poured the whole bucket of eels into Xiao Ru's bucket, and said arrogantly, "Thank you? What is there to thank, if you still want me to catch another bucket for you tomorrow. ”

Xiao Ru hurriedly said: "Enough! That's enough! This bucket will take a long time. ”

The old man grinned: "It's also good, the eel is not delicious, and I don't want to eat it if I eat it twice." ”

Unconvinced, Komi raised his little face and argued: "The eel is delicious!" It's a spicy ass. ”

Spicy ass?

Xiaoru was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood that the child was too young, his skin was delicate, and he couldn't stand the spicy food, so he laughed twice with some embarrassment.

The old man touched Xiao Jian's little head: "The roasted eel must be given chili, otherwise it will be even more unpalatable." Then he looked up and told Xiaoru to hurry up and take his younger brother home, the sky was dark, although the people in the mountains were simple, but there were always one or two scum, and the girl should go home early and be safe.

Xiaoru nodded gratefully and took Xiaojian home, and along the way, Xiaojian seemed preoccupied, and couldn't help asking, "Sister, do you have to fry the eel with chili?" Can't you do without chili peppers? ”

You don't need chili peppers to make pan eel, you just fry them in oil, but that costs a lot of oil! How can you live in someone else's house and use someone else's things!

I still make stir-fried eel at night, but I don't add chili peppers.

In the blink of an eye, she picked up peanuts for six days, and in the past few days, Xiaoru has changed her tricks to make river fresh, sometimes it is boiled river shrimp, sometimes it is fried river mussel meat with capers, and even snail meat has been served to her table.

Countryside people will never eat until there is no food to eat, these river freshness are made by Xiaoru very delicious, and often change to eat will not get tired, every day dinner is the happiest time for Xiaojian.

Those kind-hearted villagers also knew that Xiao Ru was poor, and they didn't laugh at her when they ate these things that no one ate, and sometimes they would catch some mussel shells and snails and give them to her.

After lunch on Saturday, Xiao Ru soaked all the peanuts that had been washed clean the day before in salt water to taste, and when he came back in the afternoon to fry them, he took Xiao Jian to pick up peanuts.

Come back in the afternoon peanuts are already very tasty, after dinner, Aunt Jiang helped her fry peanuts, Xiao Jian is responsible for the fire, nearly sixty pounds of peanuts have been fried until ten o'clock in the night before all the fried, the heat is just right, each salted peanut is crunchy and salty and delicious.

Sixty catties of peanuts is not light, Aunt Jiang is worried that it will be too laborious for Xiaoru to carry from the village to the long-distance bus station at the foot of the mountain alone, so she will carry half of it on her back the next day to send her sister and brother on the long-distance bus.

Xiao Jian originally planned to stay at Aunt Jiang's house, but he was inseparable from Xiaoru from the day he was born, and he was unwilling to be with Aunt Jiang, so he had to follow Xiaoru to the county seat to sell peanuts.

Anyway, he's still young, and he doesn't have to buy a ticket, so he just follows.

When I got to the town and went to the long-distance bus station, I had to pass the street where Aunt Qian's house was located, and Aunt Jiang stared at a certain place and suddenly had a gloomy face, "Huh?" "Yes.

Xiao Ru followed her gaze, and found nothing unusual except for a big tree that was more than one person thick, so she asked strangely: "Aunt Jiang, what did you see?" ”

Aunt Jiang said worriedly: "Didn't I tell you, once I went down the mountain to buy salt in the town and saw your cousin Lin Li coming to look for Aunt Qian, just now I saw your grandmother and Aunt Qian sneakily hiding at the corner of that alley and secretly looking at you, shouldn't the Lin family want to harm you." ”

Lin Cui'er pursed her lips and didn't speak, she changed her mind and resolutely separated from the Lin family because she was afraid of their revenge.

After all, she personally sent everyone in the Lin family to the police station to squat for a few days, especially the osmanthus has not been released yet, I am afraid that she will be sentenced.

To say that the Lin family is unwilling to give up and do everything possible to retaliate against her, Xiao Ru believes that the dog is beaten and does not bite if it is not in line with the dog's personality!

Although no one has actually proved that Aunt Qian is a human trafficker, many people in this area have heard of this kind of rumor, and Xiao Ru has also heard of her doing this.

Although Taolin Town is much richer than the village in the mountains, there are no renovated houses in the entire street, but Aunt Qian's family has renovated the house into a two-story small western-style building, which stands out from the crowd in the town, which is very enviable.

Many people secretly said that she had built a new house with money from human trafficking.

Xiaoru was a little nervous in her heart, did the people of the Lin family frequently contact Aunt Qian to sell her?

This situation is not impossible, while she and Xiao Jian were picking peanuts in the wild, they knocked her sister and brother unconscious and dragged them away, and sold them in sacks to the deep mountains and old forests and couldn't come back, even if the two little brothers went to report the case, as long as the Lin family and Aunt Qian did not leave evidence, even during the crackdown, the police station could not throw them into prison.

Wait for a while, meet with the little brothers, and discuss a countermeasure together.

Aunt Jiang sent Xiaoru and her brother on the long-distance bus, told them to pay attention to safety on the road, and watched the car drive away before heading home.

Mrs. Lin and Aunt Qian turned around the corner, and Mrs. Lin said proudly: "I didn't lie to you, our family is very handsome." ”

Aunt Qian snorted coldly disdainfully: "It's good-looking and useful!" Your family is so small that you want to sell it to the deep mountains and old forests, not to enjoy the blessing of being the eldest lady, which dealer looks so thin? People spend a lot of money to buy a daughter-in-law and go back not only to give birth to a child, but also to help with the work! If you want to sell it for 200 dollars, you don't have to talk about it! After saying that, the water snake twisted his waist and walked towards his home.

Mrs. Lin was a little panicked.
