On the way back, Zhou Liuyun thought about the quarrel just now, and walked towards the mountain with a trembling body, tears rolling in her eyes, "Why is this person like this?" How can you say this about my daughter, Zhang Guihua's mouth is not clean, how can you say this about my daughter! She was angry, her legs were slightly weak, as soon as she lifted her foot, the other foot was turned by the loose sand and gravel, her body shook slightly, and the things in her hand accidentally fell, she clung to the rice, protected it in her arms, and fell to the ground, her linen clothes accidentally scratched a hole, and her face was also scratched by the bush branches next to her, and the slightest trace of blood seeped out, and the cloth slid down a few feet.

At this time, Zhou Liuyun, who fell to the ground, finally couldn't help it.

She cried loudly, tears soaked the sand on her cheeks, the earth slowly turned brown, and the blood stains stinged Zhou Liuyun like needles, but she didn't seem to feel the pain, she let go, the rice bag fell aside, curled up and choked, the sun was poisonous, but she felt a chill on her.

After holding on for so many years, she finally couldn't bear it, the Wang family didn't treat her very well when she was at home before, and then her father-in-law left, and she didn't have a good face, Zhang Guihua still excluded her from time to time every day, she saw through these and didn't say anything, she endured the past one by one, and lived a peaceful life, but now she and Qingqing Niang were kicked out, she was sad at first, but then she wanted to open it, and there were only two people in the future, she and Qing'er, and no one would bother them, but who knows, Zhang Guihua still refuses to let them go, and she slanders her daughter like that, so many years!

The wind blew, the sun was hidden in the clouds, making a "boom" sound, the yellowed shrubs blocked Zhou Liuyun's face on the side, the sand in front of her was wet, I don't know how long it took, she felt dizzy.

From time to time there was a rustling sound on the mountain road, and a few chirps in the distance.

After a moment's pause, she opened her eyes, and her sallow face was sun-burned spots, and there was a brown blood stain next to it.

She sat up, the fragility just now made her feel a lot more relaxed, "Qing'er is still waiting for me to go back and cook for her." ”

When she thought of Qing'er, she seemed to have a whole heart to rely on, "In the future, our mother and daughter will live a good life, and we will no longer care about the past." She looked at the mud in front of her and said thoughtfully.

Rubbing her feet, she got up, and went to pick up the flower cloth, she patted the dust on it, brushed off the ants and insects on it, leaned over, picked up the things again, she held the things, and staggered back step by step, the wind rose, and goosebumps rose on her neck.

Zhang Guihua, who finished selling vegetables, also returned to Mu Mansion with a burden, "Mother-in-law, I'm back!" She shouted to the inner room, the black dog next to her saw her come back, swept away the fatigue just now, and shouted to her excitedly, originally choked with Zhou Liuyun today, and the mood was not very good, Mu Qingqing, that cheap girl, when she thought of her Zhang Guihua's face was full of hideousness, but as soon as she saw the black dog so likable, her face became clear again, if there were others present, her face might be said to be a trick by the people in the village.

The Wang family in the back room did not answer her, Zhang Guihua felt that something was wrong in the house, a little strange, put down the burden in the yard, and hurriedly entered the back room, "Mother-in-law, business is good today, and two loads of vegetables are sold for fifteen yuan." ”

The Wang family in the back room was making shoes, and he didn't raise his head when he went down with a needle, and he moved slightly when he heard fifteen yuan.

"Osmanthus, I'm thirsty, go scoop a bowl of water."

Seeing that the Wang family was not as affectionate as usual, she was a little panicked in her heart, and hurriedly went to the yard to scoop a bowl of water.

The shoes have been placed on the table in a regular manner, "Mother-in-law, drink water." Zhang Guihua lowered her body slightly and smiled at Wang.

Taking the water, she took a sip of it, and the flesh on her face moved with it, and she put down the bowl solemnly, "Osmanthus." She shouted pretentiously.

"Eh, mother-in-law." She paused, "Is there something going on today?" ”

"Look at these shoes, every stitch is made in a regular way."

"Yes, mother-in-law." Zhang Guihua's face froze for a moment, this village is so big, the news spread after a while, and she was a little panicked in her heart.

"We do the same, and we all have to be subject to the rules!" In the last few sentences, she accentuated her tone, "Mother-in-law, you are saying this as if I am not following the rules, it is Mu Qingqing and Li Ping who are cheating, not me." She took a sip in her heart, hated Mu Qingqing again, and complained about Li Ping again, why did she choose that place in the first place.

"There are some things, whether you do it or not, just know it." Wang's bowl rested vigorously.

Zhang Guihua chuckled in her heart, "Mother-in-law, what you said is too right!" Then he echoed, "I went back to the room last night to check the things, and lost two taels of silver, and today I saw Sister-in-law Zhou carrying a bunch of good things to the mountain, I thought she stole it, so I got into trouble with her, but she said that it was Mu Qingqing's girl who made the money for selling the incense powder, just such a misunderstanding, but I don't know who laughed at it, but mother-in-law, our family is likely to really be a thief last night." Zhang Guihua took two steps forward, as if she was frightened, and quickly covered up the affair.

Wang's expression moved, "Then what should I do?" Who has stolen our money? In a hurry, she picked up the cane that had been set aside, pestle it vigorously, and then stood up.

Seeing this, Zhang Guihua stepped forward to help her, "It's okay if the person is fine, but after Mu Qingqing's girl opened her mind, there were more ghost ideas, and the money earned by the girl should have been handed over, but we drove her out, and no matter how you say it, you have to share some of us." Wang nodded hurriedly as he said on the side.

"After you sell the vegetables today, go up the mountain to find them to get the money early." Out of the house, the chickens in the yard were pecking at the broken vegetables on the ground, calling a few times from time to time.

In the mountains and forests, Mu Qingqing, who didn't know when he fell asleep, was awakened by a burst of deer roaring.

She immediately sat up straight and looked around vigilantly, and in the distance, the woods rustled and shook a few times, and after a while, there was no movement.

She got up and looked up at the sky, there was no sunlight, only bursts of white clouds were drifting, the forest was cold, she had just woken up and wrapped her loose and breathable clothes in her hands, and the touch on her hands told her that the redness and swelling had disappeared.

"Goo-" her stomach rang, "I'm so hungry," she touched her stomach, "it's time to go back to eating." "Pick up the basket, pull the bamboo pole, and walk back.

"Mother! I am back! From afar, she smelled the smell of rice and shouted happily to the room.
