"Hmm-" she snorted unconsciously.

Well?

What is it?

How...... So itchy?

Laboriously lifted the slightly heavy eyelids, and looked around in a daze in the summer evening.

"Ahh

Her heart jumped hard, she couldn't help but scream in fright, and her body reflexively retreated.

The man with no saliva at the corner of his mouth was only a fist away from her, and he was grinning at himself, his breath spraying all over his face, and the dirty black hand was about to touch her face.

"What are you doing?!" Xia Wan stared at him defensively, determined in her heart that if he dared to do anything to him, even if he fought for his life, she would not let him succeed!

It's just that the man didn't seem to understand her disgust, so he came over one by one, and kept chanting: "Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, my daughter-in-law, are you awake?" ”

As he got closer, the sour smell became more pronounced.

Xia Wan shouted: "Don't come here!" ”

"Daughter-in-law......" The man was stunned, blinked, and looked at her innocently and hurtfully, as if he would cry out in the next second, "Daughter-in-law, you murder me, you murder me...... What's wrong with you, daughter-in-law? I ......"

After being stunned for two seconds, he suddenly realized: "Daughter-in-law, are you in pain?" Shall I blow it for you? The daughter-in-law doesn't cry, it's good to take the medicine, the daughter-in-law has slept for a long time, the daughter-in-law is lazy, hehe......"

Listening to his incoherent words in the summer evening, his heart couldn't stop sinking, and his head was in chaos.

He is...... Having a problem with your head?

She slept for a long time......

How long exactly?

How long have you been missing? Will Huo Qing be ......

Huo Qing Sui......

Thinking of that man, she couldn't help but feel a sour nose, and her heart hurt as if she was being clutched.

"Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, don't cry, we're going to have a cave soon, don't cry, don't cry......" The man looked at her stupidly, and reached out to touch her face, "Daughter-in-law......"

The summer evening is quick to disgust and avoid!

"Daughter-in-law ......"

"You ......" Xia Wan bit her lip and forced herself to calm down quickly, her eyes blinked, she looked at the man weakly, and coaxed in a soft voice, "You...... Can you untie the rope for me? The hand hurts and is uncomfortable. ”

The only thing she can use in front of her is this stupid man, she can't let go of any opportunity, she doesn't want to stay here, let alone have a hole with him.

"Untie the rope?"

"yes, untie." Suppressing the fear and panic in his heart, Xia Wan followed the temptation and reluctantly showed a smile, "Look, how do you tie me up...... Bridal chamber? You ......"

But he didn't want the man to rub it and stood up, twisted his hands together and shook his head firmly: "No!" Mom said, if you untie it, you will run, and you can't run daughter-in-law, you can't! Daughter-in-law, I want you, you are mine! ”

"No, I'm not going to run." Xia Wan smiled palely, becoming more and more pitiful, "You see I haven't eaten for a few days, and I was sick yesterday and I don't have any strength at all, how can I run?" I just wanted to eat, but I couldn't eat it with my hands tied. If you don't eat, you can't stand up, and if you can't stand up, how can you cave the house? You're right? ”

The man stared at her for several seconds: "Really...... Are you sure? Daughter-in-law, you don't lie to me? ”

Xia Wan shook her head: "How could I lie to you?" ”

Man sucks unconsciously. Yun raised his fingers, and after a while, he stomped his foot as if he understood: "Then you wait!" I'll let Mom untie it for you! Daughter-in-law, you wait for me, I'll go to the field and call my mother back! ”

Mother?

The middle-aged woman who hit her?!

Xia Wan's eyelids trembled, and she subconsciously wanted to open her mouth to stop it, but she didn't want the man's voice to fall, so she ran out like a gust of wind, and she didn't have time to stop.

"Bang dang!"

The sound of the door being locked came like a huge stone, and it slammed down on her.

Her breathing was sluggish, and she felt fear and panic surging back into her heart in the summer evening, and she was surrounded by impenetrable wind, threatening to suffocate her.

What should she do now?

No way!

She can't sit still!

Fighting spirit rekindled, she struggled to sit up from the plank bed.

And at this moment, she suddenly heard a few words from the window that were not particularly clear.

"Lao Tian's family, do you really want to go into the city to buy things later? If you want me to say, your daughter-in-law is also squeamish, just giving birth to a baby, so she thinks of herself as Lafayette? Just bully you to be honest and buy her a gold necklace! You, don't get used to her, be careful of her kicking her nose in the face! ”

"What can I do, who asked her to continue the incense for our family."

"I said ......"

Town?

A gold necklace?

The movements under his feet stopped suddenly, a thought arose, Xia Wan bit his lip and stood in place, and his ten fingers instantly tightened.

Perhaps, she could try.

Raising her eyes in the direction of the doorway, the next moment, she dragged her body back to the bed.

And almost a minute after she sat down, the door was opened, and the middle-aged woman with the evil face rushed in with the man.

"You're trying to trick my son into untying the rope?! You're a loser! The old lady spent so much money on you and wanted to run? You dream! The middle-aged woman crossed her waist and splattered angrily.

Cold sweat broke out in her palms, and Xia Wan listened to her scolding without saying a word, and then slowly raised her head, and said with a wry smile in a weak and resigned tone: "Auntie, where do you want to go?" I just want to run, but the way I am, can I run out? Even if you run out of this house, you won't be able to escape the mountain, and you might be bitten to death by wild beasts. ”

The middle-aged woman was stunned by what she said, and stared at her suspiciously: "You...... Got it? ”

"Hmm." Xia Wan smiled weakly, "Auntie, I figured it out, I don't want to die, it's better to die than to live, stay here, maybe I can have a happy home." I'm out there...... There is no home. ”

The middle-aged woman stared at her for a while, confirming that she had really accepted her fate, and then she breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "That's right, stay here, I won't treat you badly, as long as you give birth to a son!" Look, you are beautiful, and my son is so handsome, and the son you gave birth to must be good-looking! ”

Xia Wan nodded cooperatively, looking resigned to fate.

The middle-aged woman became more and more satisfied, and the corners of her mouth curled up proudly: "It's not that I said, when you give birth to a son, or we drive you away, you won't leave, in this world, how can there be a mother who is willing to abandon her son!" Come on! Now it's complete, I'm ready to prepare, and I'll hold a banquet for you tomorrow and let you have a cave room! ”

As she spoke, she turned around and went out.

"Auntie!" Xia Wan stopped her.

The middle-aged woman looked at her: "What else is going on?" ”

Xia Wan showed a well-behaved smile: "Auntie, that's the case, since you want to hold a banquet, can you let me eat something first, and is there any medicine to reduce fever?" I...... I can't just go down before I get to the feast, can I? ”

The middle-aged woman waved her hand: "Okay, you wait, I'll get you something to eat later." ”

"Auntie, there is one more thing ......"

"What's the matter? Say it! ”

Xia Wan bit her lip, and then quickly raised her eyes to look at the man who was always standing on the side and looked at her stupidly, and said shyly: "Marriage is the only major event in my life, since I want to marry in, I will be a member of your family in the future, doesn't it mean that women must have a dowry?" I...... I have a ring that can be sold for a lot of money, buy new clothes for my eldest brother, and the rest of the money will make our lives very rich in the future, so that my aunt and eldest brother don't have to work hard. ”

Almost the moment money was mentioned, the middle-aged woman's eyes lit up like light bulbs.

She never thought that the daughter-in-law she bought was not only more beautiful and well-behaved than other families in the village, but also brought money!

Money!

As long as you have money, what are you afraid of suffering?!

Her heart was pounding with excitement, and the middle-aged woman looked at Xia Wan greedily: "What you said is true?!" ”

"Hmm." Xia Wan nodded heavily.

"So, where's the ring?"

"In my hands." Xia Wan gestured behind him, and said very sincerely, "Auntie, is it convenient to get to the city here?" I'm afraid you'll have to go to a jewelry store, where the price can be high, otherwise other small shops will pit us. ”

After a pause, she said again: "Auntie, you can take it." ”

The middle-aged woman's eyes lit up, and without saying a word, she walked to her side, eagerly grabbed her hand and pulled it down.

And when the ring arrived, she turned around and left, took two steps before stopping, and grinned: "It's just right, your Aunt Tian is going to the city today, I'll go with her now, you, have a good rest, and I'll untie the rope for you later." ”

Almost as soon as her words fell, her figure was gone.

Xia Wan breathed a sigh of relief without a trace, but his heart did not relax because of this, but became more and more nervous.

She remembered the ring because she thought of what she had said inadvertently when she saw the ring that day, and that the designer of this ring was the famous Cathy. Cumberland, for all her designs, is recognizable to jewellers, not to mention that this ring is unique.

She didn't know if there was a jewelry store in the city in this place, and she didn't know if she could notify Huo Qingsui in this way, but no matter how slim the chance, she needed to gamble and buy herself time and opportunity.

As long as the middle-aged woman is not there, she has a better chance of escaping.

However, her obedience did not gain the full trust of the middle-aged woman, and although the rope was untied, an iron chain was added to the door, and no matter how she coaxed the man, the man was indifferent.

Even, after she drank a bowl of gruel to conserve her strength, her head dizzy and fell asleep again.

Xia Wan was conscious again, and was woken up by the lively sound outside.

Faintly, she only heard one sentence: "It's a hole in the house!" Look at the bride! ”

Cave Room ......

The face of the summer evening is pale!

Could she ...... Another day of sleep?

The breathing was uncontrollably disordered, and the summer evening was like numbness, and the body unconsciously shrank on the wooden bed.

In a panic, her hand touched a pair of rusty scissors......
