Chapter 33: Eating Crows.
Zhao Dan's face was pale without any blood, she was numb to bear Li Cuilan's beating, and her heart sank to the bottom.
"Dumb goods, you don't even know how to fight back, something that has no interest." Li Cuilan grabbed Zhao Dan with her good hand and dragged her back to her second son's house.
As soon as she entered the courtyard gate, she jerked the person to the ground, and sat on the ground crying and howling.
"Kill a thousand knives, all of them are fools who kill a thousand knives, none of them make me worry, what did the old lady say about you such a stupid daughter-in-law."
Her voice was ugly and poignant, like a ghost crying wolf.
Xie Cheng threw away the wine bottle in his hand and walked out of the house very impatiently, "What's the noise?" Restless early in the morning? ”
Seeing the two people outside, his wife was sitting on the ground crying, while his mother-in-law was standing aside like a fool, and she didn't know how to help her.
Xie Cheng's anger came up all of a sudden, he approached in three steps and two steps, raised his foot and kicked Zhao Dan's waist, "You slut, what are you doing stupidly?" I didn't see my mother sitting on the ground, you don't have long hands, do you? ”
Again.
Zhao Dan was almost fainting in pain, and tears welled up in his eyes.
Her husband has always beaten her indiscriminately first.
"Slut, you didn't hear what I said, did you?" Xie Cheng kicked again.
Zhao Dan was dizzy for a short time before she came to her senses, she supported her painful body and helped Li Cuilan's arm, "Mother, get up quickly, the ground is cold." ”
Li Cuilan cried even more fiercely, pushed her away, and shook her face, "You get out of here, don't pretend here, if you don't stand stupidly on the side and don't help me, can that slut Yao Nian beat me?" ”
Zhao Dan smiled bitterly, "Mother..."
"Don't call me mother!"
Li Cuilan glared, slapped it, and scolded her with a slap, "You still have the face to call me mother, are you worthy?" What can't even give birth to a son, sooner or later tell my son to divorce you! ”
After three years of abuse, Zhao Dan listened numbly, and his lifeless eyes swept around the entire courtyard.
Her husband did not take care of her and care about her, but instead of endless torture and scolding, her mother-in-law's unbridled humiliation, and even the children...
Child...
Zhao Dan's eyes lit up for a moment, and when she saw the happy girl standing in front of the door watching her being beaten and laughing, the light quickly dimmed again.
What's the point of her life?
After enduring Li Cuilan's insults and abuses, Xie Cheng pulled her hair again and asked her to roll over to cook.
Zhao Dan stood in front of the pot, his five fingers gently passed through the black hair, and a large handful of hair fell out.
She looked down at the brown rice in the pot, laughing and laughing tears came out, she knew that this was the result, she should have married the shoemaker in the village in the first place.

With water, Yao Nian was not stingy, washed the three children, and cut their hair.
I originally wanted to cut the male protagonist too, but as soon as she went in and saw the male protagonist's stinky face, what she wanted to cut was not hair.
"Mother, do you want to go up the mountain?" Xie Xiao was very puzzled when she took a big back basket, how could there be anything on the bare mountain that needed to be packed with a back basket?
Yao Nian packed up his things before looking up at him, "Yes, let's go, let's go." ”
told Erbao to take care of his sister, and Yao Nian took Dabao up the mountain.
The main thing is that I saw a lot of crows in that cemetery last time, although crows are unlucky, but they can be eaten, and it is better than starving to death.
"Has Dabao ever seen a crow?" Boredom along the way, Yao Nian began to uncontrollably chatter.
Xie Xiao frowned suddenly, and mentioned what the crow was doing? She's not going to catch crows to eat, is she? "You're not going to catch crows to eat, are you?"
"Dabao is so smart."
Xie Xiao's face suddenly had a black line, can crows eat it? It can't be toxic, right?
As if guessing what he was thinking, Yao Nian rubbed his head and slowly spoke, "Crows are not poisonous, people don't eat crows because they like to eat carrion and like to be in places where there are corpses, so they think it's unlucky, but in fact, people are just ordinary birds." ”
"Moreover, although its meat is not delicious, its meat has an insecticidal effect, which can kill the worms in Dabao's stomach."
Xie Xiao was shocked by her words, and couldn't be shocked, can there still be worms in people's stomachs? Nonsense, right?
"How can a person have a bug in his stomach?" He questioned.
Yao Nian smiled, "Of course there is, if you eat bad things or dirty things, there will be bugs in your stomach, and if the bugs bite your stomach, your stomach will hurt." ”
So terrible?
He had also eaten a lot of dirty things before, so frightened that Xie Xiao hurriedly touched his stomach, but fortunately his stomach didn't hurt.
Yao Nian thought about it very beautifully, but this crow was too alert to catch it at all, and when he heard the slightest movement, he fluttered his wings and flew away.
She was sighing when a black shadow flashed by, and Xie Xiao grabbed it quickly, and a black thing caught it in her hand.
Yao Nian saw what it was, his heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he hurriedly said, "Don't bite!" ”
The little wolf whined and withdrew his teeth, and drooped his ears with a pitiful look.
"Mother, what is this?" This black rumbling thing actually listened to her like this.
Worried that the little wolf would bite him indiscriminately, Yao Nian hugged it over and touched its head, "It's a wolf cub, it once saved my mother's life." ”
The corners of Xie Xiao's mouth twitched, he felt that Yao Nian was talking nonsense completely, how could animals save people.
I haven't seen him for a few days, and the little wolf is still a little fatter, and it seems that he has found food on his own.
"Where did the little wolf find the food that he had eaten in the past two days?" Yao Nian coughed unnaturally twice.
She felt so unkind that she wanted to cheat it on food.
The little wolf seemed to understand her words, licked Yao Nian's arm, whined twice and jumped down and ran into the distance.
In a crack in the stone, a pile of crows still struggling slightly.
It stood on the stone, and its red eyes looked at Yao Nian brightly, as if it was begging for reward.
Good guys, there's a lot of food in reserve.
Yao Nian was surprised and delighted, and held it in his arms
UA, "The little wolf is so good, go back and reward you with rice." ”
Putting the crows into the back basket, Yao Nian picked up a handful of dead grass and stuffed it on it, and today was not a trip in vain.
It happened to be getting dark, when I got home, I stewed a bird, steamed some rice, and sat in the yard after eating and looked at the stars in the sky.
The two of them walked down the mountain slowly.
Yao Nian was humming a song, and suddenly heard a miserable cry, high and low, so miserable.
Xie Xiao obviously heard it too, and asked with a frown, "Is anyone crying?" ”
