Chapter 16: Why Lie to Her?
Tong Xiang obviously didn't believe these words. Her face quickly darkened, and she walked out of the door to find Tong Hua squatting at the door of the stove and burning the fire.
"Hua'er, I've been at home for the past two days, has my big brother ever gone out?"
Tong Hua rolled his eyes and remembered with a pat on his head.
"Sister, big brother ...... yesterday morning And the day before yesterday, they all went out. It's been hours! ”
How many hours are you out? Tong Xiang was suspicious in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, but continued to ask in a light tone: "Then Hua'er still remembers, where did the eldest brother go?" ”
Tong Hua ran out of the door, looked left and right, and then stood in the courtyard again, his finger against his lips.
After tossing for a while, he remembered.
"Big brother didn't tell me where he was going. But I remember that the day before yesterday he ...... It seems to have gone to the entrance of the village. When I came back yesterday, there was still a lot of mud on my shoes. ”
Tong Hua raised his head, blinked his eyes, and asked innocently, "Sister, what are you asking these for?" ”
Do what? Tong Xiang lowered his eyes, and the fist clenched in his sleeve tightened again.
However, in the face of her brother's inquiry, she raised a smile and explained gently.
"Hua'er, what will you do if the big brother deceives us?"
For Tong Hua, this question has obviously not been thought about.
He shook his head vigorously: "Sister, how could the big brother lie to us?" Yesterday the village chief came to trouble us, and it was the eldest brother who drove him away! ”
Obviously, as a four-year-old child, Tong Hua kindly thought that as long as a person was good to him, he would not lie to him.
However, even if it will be very uncomfortable to accept this truth, Tong Xiang has to teach him.
She patted Tong Hua on the shoulder.
"Hua'er, you have to know that no matter how good a person is to you, and whether he deceives you or not are two different things.
"Whoever lies will be eaten by the big bad wolf.
Therefore, Hua'er must also learn to distinguish in the future and not be deceived, okay? ”
He shook his head, as if he was dizzy: "But, sister...... However, will the big brother lie to you? ”
Will it? Tong Xiang nodded heavily.
Tong Hua seemed to finally understand, clenched his little fist, and waved it in the air.
"Sister, if the big brother deceives you, Hua'er will be on your side!"
Tong Xiang smiled with satisfaction, held him in his arms, and patted him again and again.
As a killer, the most taboo thing for her is to lie.
The Order demands absolute honesty, and being the best killer is so ingrained in her bones.
Therefore, whether it is good or malicious, as long as someone lies to her and hides from her, she will make people pay.
The head of the village, muddy, the shape of the wound, his resistance......
All this tells her the fact that he went to the river at the entrance of the village, knowing that the wound could not touch the water, but soaked in the river for several hours.
Why did he lie to her? Why use such shoddy means to continue to rely on her?
Could it be that he had other purposes?
For a whole day, Tong Xiang didn't go to his room, and Tong Hua and Li were doing the dressing and delivery.
She was afraid that as soon as she saw him, she would not be able to control her emotions, and if she moved with murderous intent, it would not be a good thing for her to let her mother and brother discover their bloody side.
As soon as noon passed and the rain had passed, she picked up a hat and carried it on her shoulder to see the newly planted seedlings in the field.
The fragrance of fresh mud after the rain, mixed with the fragrance of flowers planted by someone, permeated the humid air.
There were a few peasants working and women and children delivering food.
Some people saw her coming from afar, as if they had seen a plague, and walked briskly past her, sneering quietly behind her back.
The sound of discussion could be heard from afar.
"I heard Mrs. Zhang say that not long ago, Tong Xiang, who drove his stepfather out of the house, actually did that kind of thing at home with a man! What a shame! ”
"After this, who will dare to ask her? I'm afraid I'm going to become an old girl that no one wants! ”
"yes. At that time, Aunt Li was also at home, and she actually connived at her daughter to do such a ridiculous thing, what a shame! ”
"I heard that she also has a younger brother, and it is really a shame to have such an uncompetitive eldest sister."
The group of village girls glanced at me and said a word, chattering the elder, and the more they talked, the more energetic they became.
Hearing them talk about their families, Tong Xiang sneered, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.
A pebble flew up and kicked it into the knee socket of the long-tongued women. I saw that those people's legs were weak, and they fell on the ground and gnawed on the mud.
Tong Xiang clapped his hands with satisfaction, and hid in the long grass by the river.
The long-tongued women looked back for a long time, but they didn't see half a figure, and they chanted "Amitabha" for a long time, stumbling away.
After cleaning up these talkative people, Tong Xiang still couldn't be happy in his heart.
can cure one, but it can't stop the mouths of the people of this village.
The incident between her and Chu Xiao only happened this morning, and it spread so far in the afternoon. In a few days, maybe not only Tongjia Village will know.
When the time comes, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to solve.
She doesn't mind going against the current, but this kind of reputation-ruining thing often hurts her family the most.
She desperately drove away Tong Laosan, leaving a ruthless impression in the hearts of the villagers, although Chu Xiao helped her clarify ......
His tall figure and loud words echoed in her mind that day, lingering.
The fireworks and sunsets that we watched together in the city, and those happy and relaxing days.
If he didn't lie to her, she would definitely not drive him away.
But, so far, he has lied to her once, and he will lie to her a second time in the future......
The more he thought about it, the more Tong Xiang didn't want to look at the scenery, and hurried home.
Li walked out of the room with an empty bowl.
Seeing Tong Xiang, she walked over anxiously and stopped her.
"Xiang'er, what's going on with this son?"
Tong Xiang exhaled deeply, and then put aside the chaotic thoughts in his mind and calmed down.
"Mother, I can't keep him at home anymore. The day after tomorrow, give him two plates of silver to wrap and let him go. ”
Hearing this, Li was stunned.
"Xiang'er, are you hiding something from your mother?"
