Chapter 19: Whip Marks

Wu Shi stretched out his hand and gently stroked Zhao Zhengyang's clothes, his voice trembled: "You won't leave me, will you?" ”

If she was ten or twenty years younger, she might not be afraid, but now that she is old, bloated, and has loose skin, how can she not be afraid.

"What's wrong, sick?" Zhao Zhengyang frowned deeply, stretched out his hand and touched her forehead.

Wu didn't speak, just shook his head, then turned around and walked into the room.

After a while, Zhao Zhengyang also walked in, and the clothes were lying next to Wu.

It was pitch black outside, and he couldn't see his five fingers, the lights in the room were dim, and the firelight was swaying, Wu turned his head to look at Zhao Zhengyang's side face, stretched out his hand and just put it on his chest, and saw him turn his head, his eyes tired.

Wu had no choice but to give up, withdrew his hand, turned his back to him, and unfortunately had no sleep all night.

……

Ye Jinyu was bullied in the private school during the day, and when she returned home, she didn't dare to let Ye Jinyan look at it, so she secretly hid in the corner and smeared the medicine, and there were blood-red whip marks all over her body, some of which were beaten by her husband, and some by those classmates.

They told him to go out under the pretext of playing a game, but when he got out, everyone came up with a whip and told him that it was a spinning top.

Ye Jinyan saw that Ye Jinyu was wrong, but no matter how she asked Ye Jinyu, she just didn't say it, so she had to give up, but she vaguely felt that there should be something wrong in the private school.

However, when Ye Jinyu went to school on the first day, she was too nervous.

For several days, Ye Jinyu went out early and returned late, and when he came back, he had a bitter face, and occasionally liked to read, but more often he was lying on the bed with the quilt, which was somewhat contrary to his dream of going to a private school.

Ye Jinyan wanted to ask him the specific reason, but Ye Jinyu said vaguely: "Sister, I was too nervous, so I didn't sleep well." ”

Ye Jinyan glanced at him suspiciously.

Once when she was fetching water, Ye Jinyu's clothes were torn, revealing half of her snow-white arms, which were full of whip marks.

Ye Jinyan just came out of the house, and at a glance he caught a glimpse of the bright red on his skin, and was about to walk over to take a closer look, but was suddenly blocked from view.

Ye Jinyu covered the clothes on her body and said cautiously: "I...... I'm fine. ”

Ye Jinyan walked to his side without saying a word, stretched out his hand and ripped off his clothes, and couldn't help but gasp at this look.

Although the injuries are not very serious, they are already all over the body, and some of them are not new, could it be that these injuries began to accumulate on the first day of his study at the private school?

Ye Jinyan frowned tightly, raised her eyes to look at him and asked, "What's the matter?" Who got it? ”

Ye Jinyu shook her head and said with a grin: "It's okay, I just walked carelessly and fell out on the road." ”

"You take me for a fool and fall to the ground with whip marks all over my body?"

Ye Jinyan frowned slightly, and didn't wait for Ye Jinyu to say anything, anyway, this guy was so stubborn, he would definitely not tell her directly.

He was bullied like this when he was only eight years old, but what is rare is that he can still smile even if he is covered in injuries, he should be afraid that he will be worried.

Sure enough, the children of poor families are in charge of the house early.

Ye Jinyan's heart ached, she hugged her younger brother into her arms, touched his little head, and looked at the looming whip marks on his body, she quietly took a deep breath.

This breath can't be swallowed, if swallowed, Ye Jinyu will definitely be bullied by many people.

Early the next morning, Ye Jinyu wanted to leave but was stopped, Ye Jinyan looked at the hazy mist outside, and said lightly: "I'll go with you today." ”

Before Ye Jinyu could react, Ye Jinyan dragged his hand and left.

In the private school, their home is far away, and Ye Jinyu has to leave early every time, but even if she walks early, sometimes she will be late when she gets there.

Ye Jinyan turned his head to look at Ye Jinyu and said puzzledly: "Have a holiday today?" ”

Ye Jinyu shook her head, lowered her eyes and said, "Mr. didn't tell me." ”

It was empty, the door was tightly locked, and I could only look through the mottled window, and there was indeed no one.

Ye Jinyan pursed her lips, so she had to give up for the time being, looking at Ye Jinyu who was drooping her head, she said in a relaxed tone: "Since we don't have to go to class today, then let's go to the field." ”

Ye Jinyu's eyes lit up after hearing this, he didn't want his sister to know that he was useless to be bullied, and he was relieved to see that these people were gone.

The Ye family's acre of land is the poorest place in the middle of the mountain.

Ye Jinyan stood on the rough land with a small basket, looking at the sun, the land was dried up and cracked.

The land has little nutrients, but because it is located halfway up the mountain, it has some geographical advantages compared to the flat fields.

The reason why this field has become this shape is probably because it is not suitable for growing rice at all, it is suitable for growing more precious herbs.

Ye Jinyan turned his head and saw Ye Jinyu digging something in the land.

"What are you doing?"

Ye Jinyu stretched out her hand to wipe her sweat, her whole body was as hot as fire, and she snorted: "Sister, didn't you ask me to dig the dendrobium last time with you?" I dug for a long time, but I didn't find anything. ”

"Who told you you were going to dig dendrobium?" Ye Jinyan smiled dumbly, walked up to him, and gently knocked on the door of his head, "That's a precious medicinal material, if it can be regenerated after digging last time, it won't be precious, but we can find another way." ”

Ye Jinyan's words were completely incomprehensible to an eight-year-old child's ears, but he still nodded pretending to be incomprehensible.

The summer sun was so poisonous that even the plants couldn't stand it, and without the moisture of water, the field was almost deserted, and she didn't want to go to the desert to dig cacti and plant them here.

However, since it is not the season to take root and sprout, you may be able to dig up some cow dung to nourish the land, so that the land can become moist and fertile again, and find a way to grow other crops next year.

Ye Jinyan supported her head with one hand, turned her head to look at Ye Jinyu and asked, "Yu'er, do you know where those cattle and sheep in the village are?" ”

She is new to the city, although she has the memory of the original owner Ye Jinyan, but some places are still not very familiar, and now she is trying to adapt.

There is a place that can help her sister, Ye Jinyu is obviously very happy, and stretches out her hand to pat her chest and say; "I know, I know!"

"Erniang's cow is in the alley to the west, and the cattle of Aunt Six and Aunt Seventh are by the creek behind their house."

Ye Jinyan nodded, stretched out his hand, and touched his head: "Good." ”

Now that you know the general position of the ox, you have to start the hard preparations.

Ye Jinyan went back and got two wooden barrels, and walked directly in the direction of the cowshed.

The cowshed is not very far, just turn two corners, but it is easy to find the location of the cowshed, but it is still very difficult to dig cow dung, these cows are not docile, and they are like dogs "mooing" and barking loudly when they see strangers.
