In a small mountain village at the foot of the mountains on the outskirts of Jinling, in front of a low and dilapidated earthen house, the surrounding dilapidated fence was almost flattened by people watching the excitement at this time.

In the dusty courtyard, a skinny woman with bulging eyes chased a two- or three-year-old child with a stick the thickness of a finger.

"Dead girl, I'll let you owe it, see if you dare to steal my mother's eggs! My mother will clean you up for your dead ghost today! ”

As he spoke, two sticks went down again, and the little girl, who was already thin, fell to her knees all of a sudden, covering her head with two small hands, and her voice was weak: "I, I didn't steal, I stole eggs......"

"Dare to be hard-mouthed! You didn't steal? Could it be that the eggs came to your house with long legs? The woman scolded the duck at the throat, and picked the little girl by the ear:

"You get up for the old lady! Don't play dead! ”

"You dead girl, there are wild seeds that are not raised by mothers, you dare to steal anyone's things! Let's see how the old lady cleans you up! ”

As he spoke, the thick arm at the mouth of the bowl flicked it, and in the blink of an eye, Yu Bao'er was thrown out two or three meters away, curled up on the ground: "Woo woo...... Mother, Yu Bao'er hurts so much......"

The woman may have been tired and stood in the yard panting. Don't forget to explain to the people around you: "You all saw it? It's not that I don't spare her today, it's really a dead girl who has to make inches, although our village is poor, but there are no unclean hands and feet! A wild seed is a wild seed! ”

The people around nodded their heads as if to a heinous sinner:

"Kill her! Kill her! A few days ago, she stole a steamed bun from my house! If she hadn't run fast, I would have beaten him up a long time ago! ”

"That's right! Fight to the death! This little wild seed, my sweet potato was lost a few days ago, and I saw her roasting sweet potato to eat in a blink of an eye! ”

"The only wheat in my house is gone!"

"My ......"

"My ......"

People kept coming forward to count the things they had lost.

Xiao Yubao covered his head, curled up in the corner, wanted to cry, but he didn't even have the strength to cry, and his bloodless little mouth moved slightly: "I didn't steal, I didn't steal, mother, Yubao didn't steal anything......"

"Woohoo!" A fierce dog barking came from far and near, and finally cracked a gap in the tightly packed crowd.

A lame big yellow dog ran over and stood in front of the little girl, grinning at the surrounding villagers, with a desperate posture. was so frightened that the woman was slightly stunned even by the people who watched the excitement.

People dare to provoke, but mad dogs dare not provoke.

At this time, a woman with a charitable face finally stood up, about thirty years old, although the clothes on her body were patched, they were very clean, and she bowed to everyone with a smile: "Folks, Yubao, this child is also pitiful, there is no father when he is young, and the mother and mother depend on each other." Since half a year ago, her mother left, leaving her alone, you do well, the lost things should accumulate virtue, the Buddha will remember your good ......"

The woman said all the good things, and the villagers gave up.

When the people were gone, the woman looked at the unconscious little girl in the corner, sighed, and carried the person into the house and placed her on a small bed with only one plank.

After carefully looking around the house, the original warm and clean house is now leaking everywhere, and there is not even a decent bowl and chopsticks.

She picked up a clay pot broken in half by the stove, went to the well to fetch half a basin of cold water, wet a towel that could not be seen clearly, and wiped away the dirt and blood on the little girl's face little by little.

Although there were bruises, and some places were broken and bleeding, it did not hinder the appearance of the little girl at all. Apricot eyes and cherry mouth, a woman has lived for almost thirty years, and she has never seen such a good-looking little girl, hey, what a pity......

A man came in from outside, looked around the room, and asked, "Are all the people gone?" ”

The woman spat out fiercely: "A pack of white-eyed wolves! They have all forgotten how Su Niang treated them when she was alive! Food, clothing, use, who hasn't been helped by Su Niang? It's good now, Su Niang has just been gone for half a year, and they are tossing her children like this! Look at this house......"

The man sat on the threshold of the hall, lit a cigarette pouch, took a puff with his eyes closed, and said quietly: "Don't talk about them, why don't we ......?"

The woman was stunned, tears flowed down, and looked at the little girl who was lying on the bed and already asleep, her eyelashes were long and dense, like a porcelain doll. She stretched out her hand to touch her delicate face, and when she saw her rough and cracked hand, she shrank back for fear of breaking her. wiped a handful of tears: "We are also forced to do so." The immortal said, if we don't find a daughter-in-law for Tiezhu, your old Liu family will be broken! Think of your father, and your mother'......."

"Smack!" The cigarette pouch slammed on the door frame, and the man got up and walked out: "Okay, don't say it, take it home!" ”

I don't know how long it took, Yubao finally woke up, she looked at the strange and familiar house in front of her, thought for a while, and then remembered that this was Aunt Liu's house at the head of the village.

When my mother was alive, I had the best relationship with Aunt Liu. Aunt Liu's son, Tie Zhu, is also the best for himself.

Other children in the village scolded themselves for wild seeds, but Brother Tiezhu stood up to protect himself. Other children disliked that they didn't have a father and refused to play with them, only Brother Tiezhu took her to play.

Later, Brother Tiezhu died, and his mother said that Brother Tiezhu had become a star in the sky, and later, his mother also went to be a star, and she was the only one left.

Tiezhu's father and mother were sad and couldn't take care of herself, she could only live on the food left by her mother.

My mother said that as long as I am obedient, my father will come back.

She always remembered her mother's words: she would not let anyone know her secret, and only ate fifty grains of rice a day, and when the rice was finished, her father would come back.

But she clearly remembered that there were still many meters in the tank, why was it gone in the blink of an eye.

Later, people kept coming to the house to rob things, some said that their mother owed them, and some didn't say anything, just robbed them. In the end, only her and Rhubarb were left, and Rhubarb was beaten by the old man in the village with a shotgun in order to save her.

If he hadn't desperately bitten the old bachelor's hand to bleed, rhubarb would have entered his stomach a long time ago.

Liu Hai's daughter-in-law heard the movement and came in, found that she was awake, and happily touched her head: "Good girl, does it still hurt?" ”

Yubao shook his little head and struggled to get off the ground.

Liu Hai's daughter-in-law stopped her: "What are you going to do?" It's dark outside, aren't you afraid that those people will beat you? ”

Yu Bao couldn't help but reddened his eyes, and his big watery eyes instantly turned into a little rabbit, and he pursed his mouth aggrievedly: "Auntie, Yu Bao didn't steal their things!" ”
