"Huh? Isn't this Xiuxiu? How did you get back? As soon as she entered the village, Sister-in-law Niu greeted her happily, and as soon as Chu Yunxi pulled out a smile, he heard Brother Niu next to him secretly poke and prod, "What Xiuxiu, people are now princesses, but we can't afford to climb high, let's go!" ”

"What are you doing? People are not the kind of people you say! Sister-in-law Niu smiled and was about to come forward to chat with her for a few words, but was dragged away by Brother Niu.

In the village for more than ten years, it is the sister-in-law Niu who treats her best, often secretly stuffing steamed buns for her to eat, helping her fetch water, taking her to pick mushrooms, and thinking about her when there are any good things.

However, such a simple woman has to suffer from her husband's domestic violence in private.

Looking at the distant backs of their husband and wife, Chu Yunxi sighed lightly, and went straight to the "home" in his memory.

The thatched hut in my impression has become a small courtyard house, with peach trees planted outside the door, a vegetable patch next to it, chickens and ducks in the yard, and pigs in the pig shed making a "purring" sound.

In order to make up for the Xu family's care for Chu Yunxi for more than ten years, the Chu family not only gave money, but also funded the renovation of the old house.

I thought that the Xu family would get rid of poverty and live a comfortable life, but who knows, when he saw Xu's mother's haggard face, a trace of doubt flashed in Chu Yunxi's heart, "Are you really sick?" "Xu Guang didn't lie to her?

"Ahem, ahem......"

Mother Xu looked sickly, forced herself to fetch water for cooking, and was busy taking care of the poultry at home and sprinkling the yard alone.

The lonely and lonely back is in stark contrast to the arrogant and domineering Xu Mu in my impression.

Chu Yunxi couldn't bear it.

I was about to secretly leave the medicine behind.

I heard a noise in the yard, "Son, don't go gambling, mother begs you, there is really no money at home!" ”

"Get out of here—"

In the face of Xu's mother's persuasion, Xu Guang pushed her away mercilessly.

Maybe it was because she used too much force, Mother Xu fell to the ground in embarrassment, tears flooded her eyes, "Your father is no longer here, this family ......"

Hearing this, Chu Yunxi's pupils were shocked, she had only been away for three months.

Why is Father Xu gone? What's going on?

Without waiting for Mother Xu to finish speaking, Xu Guang interrupted her sharply, "I won't gamble, what will I use to feed you?" Just a few broken chickens? "The money given by the Chu family at the beginning did allow them to live a good life for a while.

I tasted all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and bought them at home in sets of brocade clothes.

However, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, from luxury to frugality, after experiencing a luxurious life, Xu Guang is completely greedy for this kind of life, he no longer wants to return to the life of eating chaff vegetables, in order to get money, he began to be addicted to gambling.

With the reputation of the Chu family, he owed a lot of money outside.

And Xu's father was dealing with the debtor, accidentally fell and lost his life, Xu Guang not only did not repent, but intensified, attributing all this to the debtor and causing trouble to the government.

Seeing that Xu Guang insisted on leaving, Xu's mother hugged his thigh with all her strength and cried: "Mother beg, don't gamble, let's live a good life, okay?" "She has nothing left and can't afford to lose this son again.

"Get out—"

Xu Guang kicked her away and left without looking back.
