Chapter 1: Wrongs
It's the hottest time of the day, and the scorching air is like a boiling wave of water, making it feel like suffocating even if you stay in the sun for a second more. The clothes wrapped in the heat wave were sweating like rain, and the thin clothes were already soaked, but at this moment, she couldn't feel the heat.
Just above the head of Fu Yi, a gaze was like a fire, and she only felt the hot pain of the place she was staring at, and it seemed that it would be natural in the next moment.
She wanted to defend herself, but her head hung even lower as if a mountain weighed a thousand pounds above her head.
"Patriarch, Fu Yi knows that he is wrong, and I beg the patriarch to spare Fu Yi this time. ”
Adults like well-behaved children, and if she takes the initiative to admit her mistakes, maybe the patriarch won't embarrass her.
"Whisk clothes, so you broke it?" a slightly shrill voice came.
It was Aunt Li next door, and she had been whispering to the patriarch for half an hour when she was standing in the sun, and she didn't know what she was discussing.
"Yes. After brushing the clothes, I will be more careful, and I will never break anything in the hall again. ”
"Later?" "The well-behaved confession of the clothes did not make the patriarch's ugly face any better, "Do you dare to imagine the future after you break the idol?"
Fuyi suddenly looked up, and the apprehension on his face turned into consternation.
"Patriarch, are you mistaken?"
Hearing her words, the patriarch sneered, as if looking at an idiot.
It was obviously a scorching weather, but the patriarch's expression and gaze were like a basin of ice water, pouring his clothes through his heart, and he had such eyes! A few days ago, the little fat next door lured a sixth-order demonic beast back to the village and injured a few villagers, he only gently reprimanded a few words, why did he have such an attitude as soon as he came to her?
It was only a brief moment, and Fuyi's thoughts focused on another matter, the patriarch said that she had broken the idol?
How can it be!
"Fuyi, you have just admitted to breaking the idol, according to the clan rules, ......" Before Aunt Li finished speaking, Fuyi under the sun had rushed into the main hall like a gust of wind.
The wind blew through a heavy smell of sweat, which made Aunt Li take a few steps back.
"Dirty baby who no one teaches, no upbringing!" she raised her eyebrows and scolded.
In the main hall, Fuyi seemed to have been struck by lightning, looking at the shattered statues on the ground, the shock in her heart drowned out the anger caused by Aunt Li's ridicule.
The idol is something that the Spirit Clan has to protect with all their lives, so was it shattered?
"The idol is about the rise and fall of my spirit race, you little beast dare to break it, why don't you kneel down for me quickly!" the eldest elder stomped his cane and shouted angrily.
Fuyi finally came back to her senses, and she shook her head in panic.
"No, the idol was not broken by the wive, but only by the incense burner in front of the idol. ”
"The truth is right in front of you, and you dare to lie?" the patriarch shouted with a calm face.
Fu Yi had never seen the patriarch so fierce, so she couldn't help but take a half step back in fright, but breaking the idol was very important, she held back the fear in her heart and looked up at the patriarch.
"Patriarch, Fu Yi didn't lie, Xiao Pang was on the side at the time, and the patriarch called him over to ask. ”
"Nonsense!" Aunt Li's angry voice was sharp and ruthless, "My little fat family started to have a rash the night before, and it hasn't gone away until now, and the door has never been out, how can I testify to you?"
Fuyi's eyes widened in shock, she stayed with Xiaopang all day yesterday, and Xiaopang was obviously very lively.
"Aunt Li......"
"Dirty baby full of lies, don't call me aunt!"
The woman's angry eyes were a little terrifying, and she was so frightened that she couldn't help but be in a trance, this is still the Aunt Li who treats her gently and secretly stuffs her with food from time to time?
Fuyi's timid gaze brushed over the faces of this group of people one by one, obviously very familiar, but their expressions were so unfamiliar, and tears welled up in her eyes.
The patriarch snorted coldly.
"Now I know I'm scared, it's too late! According to the clan rules, ......"
"I didn't lie!" Fu Yi shouted angrily with tears in her eyes, "I did break the incense burner in front of the idol, Chubby was on the side at the time, the idol was fine when we left, she was the one who lied!"
Fuyi pointed at Aunt Li's hand, trembling slightly.
Just then, a voice came with mournful sobs.
"Patriarch, patriarch!"
The plainly dressed woman groped and stumbled into the sight of the crowd.
Looking at the person who came, Fuyi's original anger and fear turned into uneasiness, who told her mother about it?
Because she broke the incense burner in front of the statue, she was anxious and afraid, even so, she didn't reveal a word to her mother, why did she come so quickly?
"Mother, why are you here?" Fu Yi hurriedly stepped forward to support the woman.
"Patriarch, patriarch!" the woman looked around, but could not see anything. The whisk brought her to the patriarch.
Caught off guard, the woman knelt on the ground with a "poof". The blood in Fuyi's whole body suddenly condensed, and he was stunned.
"Patriarch, Fuyi is young and ignorant, please spare her this time!"
The woman's mournful cry brought her back to her soul, and she suddenly felt at a loss for her hands and feet, and hurried to pull the woman.
"Mother, what are you doing, don't hurry up. ”
"Presumptuous, you have done something wrong, why don't you kneel down and beg the patriarch and the people for forgiveness!" the woman's voice was angry.
"Mother, they wronged me, I just broke the incense burner, not the idol!"
The woman's expression was stunned, and soon she frowned.
"You are still reasonable, breaking the incense burner is also a great disrespect to the gods, why don't you kneel down quickly and ask the clan and the gods for forgiveness, the patriarch has always been fair, and he will naturally find out the truth!"
"No need," the patriarch's cold voice sounded, "Before the statue was shattered, no one entered the main hall except for the clothes, what else needs to be checked in front of the facts?"
The woman was stunned and looked up at the patriarch. Although, she couldn't see anything.
"Patriarch, Fu Yi has always been sincere, she said that if she didn't break the idol, it must not be her. ”
The patriarch suddenly said angrily: "A loving mother is a loser, you are just blind, not blind, is what she says?
The woman was so frightened by the patriarch's rebuke that she bit her lower lip, her eyes reddened and she did not dare to reply.
Fuyi has always been filial, and others can bully her as much as she wants, but she can't bully her own mother. She only felt a rush of blood rushing to the top of her head, and the next moment, she raised her head and glared at the patriarch.
"Who is my mother blind for?
The patriarch's face turned blue with anger, and his cold gaze was like an arrow whizzing towards his clothes.
In anger, the clothes forgot their fears, and looked at the patriarch with their chests straight. She dragged the kneeling woman up.
"Back then, in order to help the clansmen avoid the disaster, my father died, and later my mother lost her spirit pattern in order to help you avoid the punishment of heaven, and was blinded by a pair of eyes, and has since become a waste. And you, enjoy everything my parents have won for you, and then hate our mother and daughter for nothing. ”
The patriarch's face was hard to see.
"Clothes!" her mother tried to stop her uneasy.
"Mother, isn't what I'm saying the truth?" Fuyi became more and more excited, "Over the years, the clansmen have given you a good face? Who doesn't secretly bully me, friends? You always told me to endure, but today they not only wronged me, but even the patriarch said such things, if Daddy is still here, how dare they do this?"
The girl's voice was loud, and the patriarch's gloomy gaze seemed to drip water.
