"Mother, wait for me..."

"You're walking too fast!"

A little girl, probably only six or seven years old, carried a small basket on her back, muttered, and her eyes were full of dissatisfaction.

Not far in front of the girl, there was a woman who looked to be about forty years old, and behind her was also carrying a basket, but the size of the basket was many times larger than that of the little girl.

Looking at the coquettish little girl, the woman was not angry, but her face was full of smiles, and her eyes also revealed kindness.

"Xiao Xiu'er, your eldest brother will come back when the list is released, if we don't go back soon, when your eldest brother comes back, you don't know if your eldest brother has become a master!"

The woman said with a smile.

When the woman said about the little girl's eldest brother, that is, her own son, there was a look of pride in her eyes.

"Big brother will definitely become a master!"

The little girl also said loudly at this time.

"Well, yes, you will be a master!" said the woman.

"When the eldest brother becomes the master, then this piece of mulberry tree will be our family, and I can eat as many mulberries as I want!" the little girl continued.

Looking at the little girl's puffing appearance, it seems that she is obsessed with something like mulberries!

The woman shook her head, looked at the little girl who had already followed, smiled and shook her head, and said nothing.

The little girl doesn't know, but the woman knows very well that once she really becomes a master, where will she eat this mulberry, that is, all kinds of high-end fruits, and even fruits that can prolong life!

"Then I have to be a master..."

The woman said in her heart.

Then the woman took the little girl by the hand and walked towards a mulberry grove not far ahead.

As soon as I entered the mulberry forest, I looked at the dark red mulberries on the mulberry tree, not to mention the little girl, even the woman saw it and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

The woman took the reluctant little girl and walked to the other side of the mulberry forest.

When I turned over, I saw a few sparse mulberry trees, compared with the mulberry forest in front, these mulberry trees, both in terms of size and in the fruits they produced, were too much worse.

The mulberries that grow on it are dark red, but they are only the size of a little finger.

On each of these dwarf mulberry trees, there is a sign hanging on it.

The gap between the mulberry trees before and after is very large, but there is no way, don't look at the mulberry trees here, there is only one mulberry tree with the "Jingsheng" brand hanging on it, which belongs to the woman's family.

This is still the patriarch who saw Jingsheng, that is, the woman's son, had the opportunity to become the master, so he divided a tree, and every season can satisfy his hunger.

"If Sheng'er can't become the master today, I'm afraid, even this mulberry tree will be taken back!"

The woman stood there with a helpless look in her eyes.

There is no way, since the man died, the family has not contributed much to the family, and the family's fields and some materials have been taken back.

Otherwise, in the case of her own son who might become the master, the woman would not use such a thing as mulberry to entertain the upcoming guests.

But once he becomes the master, not to mention this mulberry forest, it is the best fertile land in the family, and he can also get a few acres.

"Mother!"

The woman was still worried, when she heard Xiao Xiu'er, who had already run out first, a slightly anxious cry.

"Xiu'er, what's wrong?"

The woman's expression immediately changed, and she ran in the direction of the little girl.

When the woman saw what was happening, her expression immediately became alarmed.

"What a good thing this is!"

The woman immediately became anxious.

I saw that many branches of my mulberry tree were broken, and as for the mulberries on it, they had all fallen off.

It doesn't matter if the mulberry falls, pick it up from the ground, wash it, and eat it.

However, the broken branches of the mulberry tree not only mean that the mulberry tree has been damaged, but may also be held accountable by the family.

Not cherishing one's own property is not a good reputation in the family.

Of course, once his son can become a master, these are not problems, the key is that his son is not a master now!

The culprit of all this is a figure lying under the mulberry tree.

The figure lying under the mulberry tree, the clothes on his body were messy, and there were even many wounds on his body.

"This one has been cut a thousand times!" the woman immediately scolded: "If you don't steal so many mulberries from the harvest, you can steal them from the back, it's just hateful!"

As she spoke, the woman picked up a stick and groped slowly towards the body lying on the ground.

In the woman's opinion, the figure lying on the ground was stealing from her mulberry tree, and as a result, she stepped on her empty foot and fell from the tree.

But then I thought about it, no!

The mulberry tree is not tall in the first place, and even if it falls, it can't be so serious!

Anyway, no matter what, the figure lying on the ground is a thief!

The woman used a wooden stick to pull the figure lying on the ground, and when she saw that there was no response, the woman was bold and turned the figure lying on the ground over.

"Ahh

"Mother!"

When the figure was turned over, both the woman and the little girl let out a frightened sound.

I saw that the figure lying on the ground, on the chest, there were several deep wounds that could be seen in the bones, and even the ribs had been exposed.

Not only that, but there are also a lot of wounds on this person's face, and he can't see his face clearly.

The woman and the little girl were so frightened that they took a few steps back and sat down directly on the ground, and the little girl hugged the woman directly and buried her face.

Such a terrible injury, even those who came down from the battlefield, it was not so bad!

Soon after, the woman eased up, kept patting the little girl gently, and said comfortingly: "Xiu'er, don't cry, don't cry..."

Can a little girl stop crying?

It's scary!

After a long time, the woman finally comforted the little girl.

Then, the woman walked slowly towards the wounded figure.

Dead people are not terrible, in today's environment, women have also seen dead people, and there are many thieves who are killed by the family every year.

However, this person not only died under his own mulberry tree, but also destroyed the branches of the mulberry tree, according to the temperament of the family, once he knew, it was a small matter to take back the mulberry tree, and blame his son, it would be a little troublesome.

Even if he becomes a master, his status in the family has risen sharply, and he cannot surpass the shackles of the family, otherwise, his son will not use a mulberry tree to send away when he can become a master.

Looking at the figure under the mulberry tree, the woman's eyes showed a look of doubt, because the woman found that it seemed that the person was not dead Chinese
