Chapter 137: Absurd Punishment
It can be said that Aunt Shen Liu's screams came so abruptly, not only was I startled, but even Shen Xinglin, who had always been cold, frowned dissatisfied.
Maybe she also felt that she was too exaggerated, Aunt Shen Liu first smiled at Shen Xinglin flatteringly.
Then she turned her head, faced me with a fierce face, and said, "It is said that my daughter's family is careful, I have never seen such a reckless girl as you, look at your feet." ”
What's wrong with my feet? I looked at it quizzically.
It can be said that it is normal, stepping on the path leading to the house, and the shoes are not unclean.
I looked up and saw Shen Xinglin puzzled, but she covered it up well, obviously she didn't see the problem, so why did Aunt Shen Liu be so exaggerated?
Before I had time to think about it, Aunt Shen Liu's hand was already grasping my arm, I didn't expect that a woman would have so much strength, and the hand on my arm was as hard as an iron tong, and it hurt.
Under this force, I was dragged out of the house by her exaggerated pull, and the luggage accidentally touched the door and fell to the ground, and some miscellaneous items and clothes placed on the upper layer of the luggage were scattered all over the ground.
Even the clay figure has three points of fire, although I repeatedly told myself to be patient, but I was treated inexplicably several times like this, I finally didn't want to be silent, looking at Aunt Shen Liu, who was fierce and vicious, I took a deep breath and said: "Everyone is educated, you can say anything dissatisfied, but please don't do it again, okay?" That's not the way to solve the problem. ”
After that, I was going to pick up my luggage, which was the result of my extreme patience, and I believe there was nothing wrong with it.
But I didn't want to, this in exchange for a series of sneers from Aunt Shen Liu, she didn't care about my statement at all, but dragged me up, and said loudly: "If you don't take a good road, you have to step on the lawn!" Do you know that every grass and tree in the courtyard of the apricot grove is not ordinary, it is all nourished by the aura and grown, and in the eyes of ordinary people, it is a treasure! Don't say a flower, even a piece of grass. You stepped on it just now, do you think you are a companion, you can afford it? Do you know how carefully the apricot grove takes care of them? ”
As she spoke, Aunt Shen Liu raised her hand again, is this looking like she is going to slap me?
I finally couldn't help it, and grabbed her hand, and my heart was indescribably angry. Now in this situation, as long as you are not stupid, you know that this Aunt Shen Liu is deliberately making trouble for me, and after grabbing her hand, I couldn't help laughing and asked her: "Then you mean that people are not as good as a grass?" Don't say I didn't find out I stepped on it, and even if I did, it's not a reason for you to hit someone. ”
I thought that according to Aunt Shen Liu's character, she would definitely insist on doing something like this, right? After all, this woman has so much strength, and I am no match for her at all.
I'm already thinking about what to do, turn around and run? Who can I turn to? Shen Jingyun said that in this village, it seems that Elder Shen Jiu is more reliable, do you want to go to him?
For a moment, the thoughts in my head turned a thousand times.
I want to be patient, but that doesn't mean I have to be weak all the time, and if I can, it's not a sin for me to use everything I can.
Even though, from beginning to end, I thought about not bothering others easily, and I didn't want Shen Jingyun to owe more favors, but the premise was that I could stay in this village.
But I didn't expect that Aunt Shen Liu didn't continue to do it, but instead shouted at Shen Xinglin with an aggrieved face: "Xinglin, look at it, how unruly is the companion you are looking for?" It's a shame that you still want to take care of her because of Shen Jingyun, look at it, she dares to do something to me, an old man in the village. You say, you say, is there such a reason? ”
When she spoke, she had already let go of me all of a sudden, thanks to her so strong appearance, her movements were so agile, and she suddenly rushed to Shen Xinglin's side, and raised her wrist exaggeratedly in front of her: "Look, Xinglin, look at it, this wrist is bruised!" ”
I was really completely speechless, and finally felt what it means to be deeply malicious, and what it means for the wicked to sue first.
Obviously, my arm is still burning and hurting, but now in her mouth, it was me who injured her?
"Presumptuous." Shen Xinglin, who had been silent, finally spoke at this time, I was slightly stunned, but I was slightly relieved in my heart, this Shen Xinglin is not completely confused, is she willing to say a fair word for me?
But when I looked up, what I saw was Shen Xinglin's eyes looking at me, and Aunt Shen Sixth stood aside and smiled a little proudly.
"It's already a great kindness that this village can take you in. But everywhere has its own rules, don't you think that if you are taken in, you can ignore the rules here? Aunt Shen Liu is an old man in this village, and she has been waiting for me to grow up, even if I don't dare to make a move on her, I always have a little respect. But how can you, an outsider who asks for shelter here, attack her? Shen Xinglin looked at me, and his gaze, which was calm before, gradually became sharper.
I didn't expect this to be the result, nor did I think that right and wrong could be so reversed? In a few words, I turned out to be the person in Shen Xinglin's mouth who didn't understand the rules and didn't respect the old people in the village.
I pursed the corners of my lips, and suddenly it dawned on me that if I argued, it would make things worse.
Although the sun above my head was still bright, I felt a chill rising from the soles of my feet, and I didn't want to speculate on others, but now that things have become clear, it is not that Aunt Shen Liu is full of malice towards me at all, but Shen Xinglin in front of me is full of malice towards me.
Otherwise, how could I be temporarily changed by that clansman and assigned to Shen Xinglin, and told that I would have to serve people in the village?
If she really cares for me, how can she ignore right and wrong, reverse black and white, and put such a crime on me?
The two things are connected, and it is not difficult to speculate.
That's why I feel like things are going to get worse if I argue at this point. On her turf, it is not impossible to say too much and make many mistakes, and any word will become a handle.
"Don't you have anything to say?" Shen Xinglin was very surprised, I actually endured it at this time and didn't say a word.
I shook my head, saying that I didn't want to argue, but I was already silently calculating in my heart, how I was going to get through this difficult three months, and I kept thinking about all kinds of people who came strong in the extreme environment to comfort myself.
"Since you don't argue, I think you also know what mistakes you have made? You should know that as a companion, you must not only abide by the rules of the village, but also abide by the rules of the host's family. You first broke the rules of the master's house, Aunt Shen Liu opened her mouth to educate you, and you even ignored the rules of the village and did it to her. Although I want to take care of you, I can't chill the heart of Aunt Shen Liu, who has taken care of me for many years. Therefore, you must go to the heart refining cave behind the village for three days, which can be regarded as my punishment for you. Shen Xinglin was no longer surprised, and said lightly.
I had a ridiculous feeling of being in a dream.
I can't understand at all, in this modern society, there is still a word for lynching? The other party said lightly that I made a mistake, and without any evidence, he asked me to go to some heart refining cave, and it was not a good place just to hear the name.
What am I going to do? I feel so helpless at this moment, if Shen Jingyun is here, isn't it... As soon as I thought of Shen Jingyun, I felt sour and about to weaken.
I don't dare to think about him, I can't be weak at such a time.
I must have thought that if he told me, when he came back, everything should be fine, and there should be the happiness I was looking forward to, right?
This sentence is like a strong force that keeps supporting me.
In the silence, I still bent down silently and began to collect my miscellaneous items scattered on the ground, Aunt Shen Liu still kept sneering, and Shen Xinglin didn't say a word.
Maybe this performance was too exaggerated, or maybe Aunt Shen Liu's screams were too shocking, in this quiet upper middle and upper village, there were actually three or two people watching, and in the adjacent room, there were also one or two people flashing on the balcony.
But no one said anything, and the village was accustomed to such indifference. This is the case among the clansmen, what do I expect as an outsider?
Soon, I packed up the miscellaneous items on the ground and put them neatly in the suitcase, then I straightened up and said to Shen Xinglin, "Where is the Heart Refining Cave?" I'll go. ”
Yes, I admit it, Shen Xinglin made it clear that she wanted to clean me up, but this time she caught the so-called handle, and she couldn't hide from it, so it was better to admit it simply. It's only been three days, I don't think I'm going to die there, do I? As long as I get through these days, Shen Jingyun will come to pick me up.
Thinking about it, there was a smile on the corner of my mouth, maybe girls have this feeling, right? I actually think that this is for the relationship between me and Shen Jingyun, I am enduring hardships, accumulate more hardships, and I will be happy in the future, right?
Looking at my smile, a trace of resentment flashed in Shen Xinglin's eyes, and she said to Aunt Shen Liu: "Take her to the Heart Refining Cave, and within three days, you are not allowed to go out for a single step." This time she made a serious mistake, and disrespecting her elders is a felony. So, use the strictest rules of the Heart Refining Cave to do it. ”
Shen Xinglin finally announced her "punishment" for me, I was surprised to find that Aunt Shen Liu's eyes flashed a trace of uneasiness, as if she wanted to say something to Shen Xinglin, but the open door, three or two onlookers, made her lips move, she didn't speak, just looked at me viciously and said, "What are you still stunned about?" Come with me. ”
I resigned myself to my fate, held the suitcase, and turned around to go with Aunt Shen Liu, but I didn't expect to be knocked off the luggage in my hand by her, and said, "Go to the Heart Refining Cave, do you still want to take anything with you?" ”
I'm speechless, should my own things be confiscated in this village?
At this time, a hearty laugh came from not far away, and a kind voice said, "What is this for?" Acocot Grove's hair is so big a fire? It's time to open the heart hole. ”
