Chapter 10: Overboard

Drowning

"Auntie, what's wrong? Why are you crying? ”

The other party wiped a handful of tears, looked up and saw Zhang Yu, crying even more fiercely, "Yingzi...... She...... She jumped into the pond. ”

As she spoke, she stumbled to the pond while crying.

When Zhang Yu heard this, he hurriedly followed.

Yingzi is a good friend of Zhang Daniu, Zhang Yu can't say anything if she doesn't show her concern, what's more, this is a life of a kind and innocent girl, even if Zhang Yu is a stranger, she can't be indifferent, she thinks of everyone's discussion these days, and probably knows why Yingzi wants to dive.

No matter what era, it is a sad thing for a girl to encounter such a thing, let alone in the countryside in such a backward era.

When Zhang Yu ran to the pond with the bucket, he saw that Yingzi had been fished out of the water, and she was carried by people on the back of a buffalo, with two people supporting Yingzi and another person pulling the cow away.

The cow was pulled around there slowly, and as the cow walked, the warm and round belly kept turning Yingzi's body, and after about four or five minutes, Yingzi's mouth spit out some water.

The onlookers breathed a sigh of relief, "The water came out, the water came out, and there was salvation." ”

The person pulling the cow continued to pull the cow away, and Yingzi, who was lying on the back of the cow, kept pouring water out of his mouth.

Almost half an hour passed, and the water that came out of Yingzi's mouth became less and less, and then it was gone, and with an ouch, Yingzi woke up.

The two people who were holding her next to her immediately hurriedly helped her down.

Yingzi's mother ran over and hugged her daughter and cried.

"Yingzi! You stupid girl, you scared your mother to death, why are you so ruthless, your mother raised you so big, you said you would dive into the water, in case you can't save it, how will you let me and your father live in the future! ”

Zhang Yu looked at the people who were surrounded by excitement, and stepped forward to pat Yingzi's mother: "Auntie, Yingzi is wet, let's go home!" Give her a change of clothes and boil some ginger soup to drink. ”

Yingzi's mother stopped crying when she heard this. She pulled up Yingzi.

"Yingzi, let's go home!"

Zhang Yu grabbed Yingzi's other hand.

"Yingzi, I'm sorry, these days, I've been busy with my own family's affairs, and I haven't seen you, I didn't expect you to do such a stupid thing."

Yingzi's lips moved, but she didn't squeak.

Zhang Yu continued to persuade: "Yingzi, you are so stupid, you are an innocent girl, is it what others say!" Others can say whatever they like to say, they haven't done anything wrong, why do they want to dive! ”

Yingzi's mother also said indignantly: "That's right! Those who chew the root of the tongue make their hearts rotten and their tongues rotten. ”

"Yingzi, in the eyes of those who talk about you, you are just a dispensable person, but in the eyes of your family, you are the most important person for them, and you gave up your precious life for a few gossips from those insignificant people, how sad it is for your relatives!"

Yingzi hugged Zhang Yu and cried aggrievedly.

Zhang Yu patted her on the back: "Cry!" You have been wronged. ”

Yingzi stopped crying, she wiped her tears: "Big girl, let's go home."

Zhang Yu pulled Yingzi home.

After returning home, Yingzi's mother went to the kitchen to cook ginger soup, and Zhang Yu accompanied her in Yingzi's room.

Yingzi changed into clean clothes, but her hair was wet all the time.

Zhang Yu took a towel and gently wiped it on her, and said: "Yingzi, you are only sixteen years old, you are in the best years, and the best days are still ahead!" How can you be willing to do such a thing! ”

Yingzi sat there numbly, her eyes glazed.

"Good day? What good life is there for a person like me? ”

"Why don't you have a good life? Is it true that if you are bullied by a bad guy, you don't deserve a good life? And you didn't do anything wrong? ”

"I didn't do anything wrong, but why was I so unlucky? Girl, you say, a girl, when she encounters such an unlucky thing, can she still look up and be a person in this life? You just don't care, those spitting stars will drown people. ”

At this time, Yingzi's mother came in with a bowl of ginger soup.

Her eyes were red and swollen, and her voice was hoarse, "Yingzi, drink the ginger soup while it's hot." She was apparently alone in the kitchen secretly crying for a while.

Yingzi silently took the ginger soup and drank it numbly.

Seeing her daughter like this, her mother sighed and looked sad.

"Big girl, you are Yingzi's best partner, when you are there, there is another person to talk to her, you are gone, what can she do?"

Zhang Yu thought for a while, "Or, let Yingzi go with us!" Leave here and go to the provincial capital, where no one knows about Yingzi being bullied, no one will chew her tongue, and no one will treat her differently, Yingzi can live as freely as before. ”

Yingzi's eyes lit up.

"Really, big girl, I can follow you to the provincial capital?"

"Yes! You live with us, where we live, where we live, what we eat, what you eat. ”

Yingzi's mother: "This is a good idea, and it can be regarded as giving Yingzi a way to live!" However, how do you live when you go to the provincial capital? There is no land to plant. ”

"Auntie, there are so many people in the city, they don't have any land to plant, and not all of them are alive and well."

"How can you compare to others? Where have people been for generations, they naturally have the ability to survive, you go there, you are not familiar with anything, you don't understand, how to live? ”

"Auntie, the trees are dead, the people are alive, and the city is not full of people who have stayed there for generations, we have hands and feet, and we can't die of hunger."

Yingzi's mother still couldn't believe it.

"Really? Girl, I heard that after you enter the city, the Zhao family will find you a job, let's Yingzi, what can you do if you go? ”

"The Zhao family promised to help me find a job, but I want to do some business by myself, and it just so happens that Yingzi is going and can help me."

"What kind of business are you going to do, and what can Yingzi help you with?"

"I haven't thought about what to do yet."

Yingzi's mother was a little disappointed: "You didn't think about it, so you dared to sell the house and food, and take your younger brothers and sisters with you, and Yingzi, you kid, it's too hasty."

"Auntie, I have to go there first to see the environment before deciding what is appropriate!"

Yingzi's mother shook her head.

"That's it, let's go there and relax! If you really can't get along, let her come back, what about you, big girl! Let the Zhao family find you a job, and work hard to make money to support your family. ”

Zhang Yu knows that before he makes money, others will not believe in his ability to make money.
