Chapter 5 Ugly nicknames

She bought five catties of corn for three cents a pound this time, one pound each for sorghum and beans, and she didn't move the remaining thirteen cents again, planning to return it to Aunt Fuhua first.

The little girl with her head full of copper coins and food did not remember today's magical experience until she was close to the door. However, she still didn't have time to talk to A-Niang in detail, because the water at home had bottomed out, and she had to go to the village to carry the water back.

The isolated island where my family is now settled is not big, but fortunately, there is a small hill to block the wind and rely on, and I can usually get some firewood and wild vegetables. The only bad thing is that there is no clean water, and if you want to eat and drink, you have to go back to the village to get it.

Ye Yu is not too troublesome, but he is tired of meeting one or two annoying people every time he goes back to the village, and he always says something inexplicable that makes people not in a good mood all day.

She cleaned the bucket by herself, and was about to untie the rope on the raft and row away when she saw A-Niang chasing her.

"Fisherman......"

Looking at A-Niang's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Ye Yu already understood a little in his heart. I probably want to let myself go to see my grandmother again.

……

A filial piety word is pressed on the head, even if it is driven away by the insults of the elders, it still can't get rid of it.

Now that Daddy is gone, Grandma is old again, Auntie's idea is not too much, but Ye Yu just can't just respond to it.

She is probably an outlier, because she has no filial piety for her grandmother. However, in order not to make A-Niang sad, she still nodded.

"I'll see......"

It's also a sneak peek outside the fence, but A-Niang doesn't know anyway.

Ye Yu took the bucket at home and paddled slowly towards the village. At this time, the sun was about to set, and the villagers who had gone out fishing were returning home one after another, and she met several waves of people on the beach.

However, those uncles and uncles have no ill will towards her, at most, they are unlucky and subconsciously stay away. She knew each other well that she did not take the main road into the village, but walked around the beach through the palm forest at the edge of the village.

As soon as the palm forest went out, it was Aunt Qiu's house not far away, and a little back from her house you could meet a stream, where the clean water used by her family was usually fetched.

Ye Yu took out two catties of corn from the bucket and prepared to return it along the way.

In fact, the fishermen who live by the sea are poor but hungry. After all, there are many treasures in the sea, and many seafood can be brought between the low tide and high tide every day, as long as you are not particularly lazy, you can still live your life. If it weren't for the typhoon a while ago, my family wouldn't have been able to run out of food.

At the beginning, I borrowed one and a half catties of corn from Aunt Qiu, and she repaid two catties herself, so her mother-in-law should have nothing to say.

Ye Yu approached the door and was about to shoot, when he suddenly heard a piercing shouting and scolding from inside.

"Didn't you just ask you to scrub Runiang's clothes, what kind of attitude do you have?! There is a sister-in-law like you?! Eating white food at home every day doesn't lay eggs, that is, my family can tolerate you! ”

These words sounded harsh, Ye Yu didn't think much about it, and directly pushed the door and walked in.

"Aunt Qiu......"

Hearing Ye Yu's voice, Lian Qiu, who was sitting in a daze and washing clothes, immediately raised his head. She looks fine, she doesn't hurt after being scolded for a long time, and her eyes are not even red.

"Xiaoyu, why are you here?"

As soon as Lian Qiu finished asking, he was pushed heavily from behind by his mother-in-law.

"Blind, of course people are here to return food."

Shi Shi snatched the sack from Ye Yu's hand with a stinky face, and turned his weight upside down, his face was a little better, but he was still very polite when he spoke.

"Ye girl, it's okay in the future, don't always come to my house. No one's grain is blown by the wind, and they will borrow it when they say it, and who knows if they will be able to pay it back in the future. ”

Lian Qiu was so angry that he wanted to fight back on the spot, but asked Ye Yu to hold his hand and calm him down. They all understand how Shi is a person, and the more she pulls her, the more she gets stronger, there is no reason to talk about it at all.

And Aunt Qiu is a daughter-in-law who is born without the upper hand, and when she quarrels, people will only say that she disrespects her mother-in-law.

"Aunt Qiu, it's getting dark, and I still have to fetch water."

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Lian Qiu grew up watching Ye Yu and hurt her in his heart. Thinking that the little girl was going to carry two buckets of water to the beach by herself, she felt very distressed, and she didn't care about the clothes in the yard, so she directly pulled Ye Yu away, so angry that Shi scolded for a long time.

Ye Yu bit her lip, a little worried that Aunt Qiu would be bullied when she went home in a while, so she refused to give her the bucket in her hand.

"What are you afraid of, girl?"

Lian Qiu smiled and whispered, "Don't worry, your Uncle Shi is coming back soon, and my mother-in-law won't dare to scold me if he mutters a few words at most." Give me the bucket and I'll carry it for you, so you can go back sooner. ”

Ye Yu couldn't resist her, so he had to let go of the bucket, and the two went to the creek to fetch water together. Along the way, Lian Qiuzai carefully inquired about the life of the mother and daughter on the island, and heard that Ye Yu can now earn her mother's medicine money by herself, and her heart was really full of emotion. She didn't have much to say, just touched the little girl's head and praised her for being so capable.

"By the way, don't you still have to pay back Sister Fuhua's money, I'll bring you the water, you go and pay back the money first."

Ye Yu nodded, turned around and ran to Aunt Fuhua's house not far away, and paid back ten cents first.

One penny of silver is one hundred yuan, and paying back ten yuan is not a small amount, which is a lot of money for the mother and daughter who are living in poverty.

Fuhua simply accepted the money, and invited Ye Yu to eat his son's wedding wine for a while.

Ye Yu agreed, but he didn't plan to come in his heart.

Aunt Fuhua does not dislike herself, which does not mean that others do not dislike her. Especially for happy events, most people are taboo about her. There's no need to come to the door on a good day to ask for suspicion.

After coming out of Aunt Fuhua's house, Ye Yu turned right and went to his grandmother's house, no, he should have become an uncle's house now.

Her grandmother gave birth to three sons and a daughter, and her uncle became a son-in-law in the town, leaving her father and uncle in the village. Now that the father and brother are missing, the old couple can only rely on their eldest son to support their old age in the future, and the house will naturally become the uncle's.

Ye Yu didn't come closer, because she saw Grandma talking to someone in front of the house with Xiaobao from her uncle's family.

Grandma is really worried, Grandma seems to be doing well. She talked and laughed with her neighbors about the recent trivial matters at home, and she was even more kind to Xiaobao.

The bitter and mean grandma in my memory seems to be another person.

"Hey! Broom Star, what are you hiding here?! ”

Ye Yu's body stiffened, and soon relaxed again. She ignored the lobby sister behind her, turned around and left.

It's just a cousin, I'm afraid she will do something......

When Ye Hui saw her like this, she suddenly felt very faceless, and called the broom star several times in a row. not only called her a broom star, but also called her ugly and other ugly nicknames.

Ye Yu threw those voices behind his ears and ran fast. Although she wanted to scold back loudly, her tongue was not good, and she couldn't make a noise. Reluctantly arguing only makes her look like a stammer.

At this time, she remembered the words of that beautiful sister in her mind again. It seems that you can cure your mouth disease with only a simple way.

A very crazy thought suddenly popped up in Ye Yu's mind.

Tomorrow, do you want to try in the woods again?
