Chapter 2 She Must Protect Her Child
Immediately, she touched the money in her pocket and continued to sweep and stockpile.
When she returned to the village, Mu Yaoyao didn't have a few children left in her pocket, and the jade pendant space was full, which made her heart settle down a lot.
There are still about ten hours before the famine, and she has to go back to build the house well.
Time was short, and when she reached the head of the village, she watched from afar a group of people gathered there.
When she passed by, Mu Yaoyao heard the village woman say, "It's really pitiful, that kid from the Xu family has to spend this amount to see a doctor!" ”
"Why don't you allow the family to pull out all the food at home for money?"
Mu Yaoyao remembered that in her previous life, the youngest son of the Xu family was seriously ill, and the Xu family sold all the grain stored in the family to go to the province to treat the younger son, but before she went, the famine came.
The Xu family's family had empty money, the youngest son was still ill, and he couldn't borrow food everywhere, the youngest son of the Xu family was the first to die, and the Xu family did not survive this famine.
Her eyes darkened and she stopped.
Several villagers are bargaining around a pile of grain.
Some want to exchange sweet potato seedlings, and some want to take advantage of the fact that the youngest son of the Xu family is seriously ill and lacks money.
In addition to the sweet potatoes and corn grown by the Xu family, all the fresh fruits and vegetables in the vegetable field were taken out, which shows that they are desperate.
But most of these villagers wanted to take advantage, and the Xu family looked gloomy.
Mu Yaoyao opened her mouth, and finally said, "I want all your family's food." ”
The Xu family looked over fiercely, and when they saw Mu Yaoyao, they couldn't help but have hope in their eyes.
Who in the whole village doesn't know that the eldest lady from the city, the little daughter-in-law of the Lu family, spends money lavishly, and is a big wrongdoer, she must have the money to buy it!
Mu Yaoyao touched the only money left in her pocket, anyway, the famine came, and she couldn't buy anything with the money.
It's the Xu family, and you can't get it back if you sell it to others.
She bought it first, waited for the famine to come, and then returned the food to the Xu family, at least she could keep the Xu family's rations.
She was generous and did not bargain, and the Xu family was grateful, saying that they would send all the food to the Lu family later.
The villagers pointed to Mu Yaoyao's back, with jealousy and disdain in their eyes, saying that she was a daughter-in-law of a ruined family, and the Lu family was unlucky to marry her.
Mu Yaoyao didn't care about those discussions, walking on the road, the scorching sun was baking on her body, and her back was already soaked with sweat.
In the crops next to it, many villagers are still trying their best to water it.
But in such dry weather, no matter how much they do, it's useless!
What's more, the locust plague that will usher in more than ten hours will completely become a place for locusts to eat!
Mu Yaoyao wiped the sweat from her forehead, and was about to turn into the alley to go home, when she heard the voice of an old lady scolding from the yard.
"You little loser, you dare to steal something to eat, see if I don't kill you!"
Mu Yaoyao's heart sank, and she pushed open the iron door of her house, and there was a lot of yellow ash in the yard, and there were many holes in the roof and windows.
And in the courtyard, an old lady was whipping a thin girl of three or four years old with a rattan.
"Grandma, I didn't steal, my brother is sick and needs to eat."
The little girl held the small shriveled sweet potato tightly in her arms, and her eyes were full of tears.
"Dead girl steals is stealing, and she talks back!"
Seeing that the rattan was about to be pumped on the girl.
A pair of slender hands grabbed the old lady's hand violently, and gradually strengthened.
"Mother......" The girl looked at the mother who stopped her grandmother from beating her in disbelief.
Mu Yaoyao was so angry that she didn't dare to look at her skinny daughter.
In her previous life, she wanted to go back to the city, and she didn't care about a pair of children, but she didn't know that Mrs. Lu was so bad for the children!
Later, when she wanted to find her child to make amends, she saw that her child was surrounded and bullied, and her son also broke his leg to protect his sister, and her daughter couldn't accept the stimulation and committed suicide.
Mu Yaoyao's eyes were full of remorse.
In this life, she must protect her children and never let anyone bully them!
"It's just a sweet potato, can you be guilty of beating your own granddaughter like this?"
