Chapter 213 The miserable Zhou Miaomiao

Ma Xiangxiu was also very tired.

A sack of wild vegetables was not light, and she had not eaten or drank all day. At this moment, she was staggering behind Yang Anguo Ma Juzi, dragging the sack in her hand on the ground.

"Anguo, Juzi, put down the wild boar first, eat some buns and then carry it." Yang Jun stood at the edge of the forest and greeted.

The two guys raised their heads and glanced at Yang Jun, then leaned over and threw the wild boar to the ground.

"Brother, please don't lie to me. Do you really have buns to eat?"

Yang Anguo was wet with sweat and said weakly.

Yang Jun turned around and took a bun from the car and showed it to him.

"I bought it in the village just now. It's still warm. Come over and eat it quickly."

"I have a brother..."

Yang Anguo shouted out his hometown dialect when he was excited.

"Eat slowly, there is plenty."

Yang Jun advised as he watched the three of them devouring their food.

"Brother, why did you run ahead of us? Juzi and I went back to find you?" Yang Anguo ate the buns and asked as he ate.

"I... carried it lightly and came back first by taking a shortcut." Yang Jun pointed to the boardwalk: "Didn't I come here in advance to make preparations? Otherwise, how would I get the pig back?"

Yang Jun's face turned red, feeling sorry for the three of them.

He escaped early, and they were afraid that they would get lost, so they went back to look for him.

He felt a little sorry for the three of them. If he had known this, he should have said hello to them in advance.

There were two big meat buns stuffed with pork, and Ma Xiangxiu only ate two, and the rest were rounded up by the two of them.

Seeing their unfinished expressions, Yang Jun's face twitched.

These two guys are exhausted and hungry.

After eating the buns, the two went back to carry the pig.

However, this time they did not carry it, but carried it over.

As soon as the three pigs were put on the cart, I suddenly felt that the cart was not enough.

The cart could only hold one wild boar, so the three of them placed the largest one underneath, then pressed the 350-pound one on top, and finally placed the smaller one across the handlebars.

Ma Xiangxiu put the wild vegetables on the jeep, and then she and Yang Jun returned to the city first, followed by Ma Juzi and Yang Anguo pulling the cart behind.

The journey back to the city takes two hours, totaling more than 130 miles. If they walk, they won't be able to make it this time tomorrow.

However, these two guys are very excited at the moment, and their minds are full of money.

Once these pigs are sold, it will be enough for them to earn two years' wages. They only have 1,500 miles of land, let alone 150 miles, and they don't feel tired.

Yang Jun greeted them and then drove back with Ma Xiangxiu.

When I got home, it was already past eight o'clock at night.

Yang Jun took a shower, changed his clothes and went back to his room to sleep.

Early the next morning, Yang Jun asked Ma Xiangxiu, who was making breakfast, if Ma Juzi and the others were back.

Ma Xiangxiu told him that he hadn’t come back yet.

Yang Jun thought about it for a while.

It's more than 130 miles away, and you can't get back within three days.

Thinking about the forced march of the army back then, the highest record was 129 kilometers covered in 24 hours. However, Yang Anguo and the others were probably even slower when they pulled a cart weighing nearly a thousand kilograms. If they wanted to get back to the city, they would not be able to get back in more than three days.

Come.

After breakfast, he and Yi Qiushui went to work.

As soon as he got to work, he asked Secretary Jiang to borrow a truck from the driver's class to pick up Yang Anguo and the others.

This was Yang Jun's first time using a bus for personal use, but he did not use it in vain. Instead, he asked Jiang Haitao to pay the usage fee and gasoline fee.

Then he followed the driver and drove out of the factory.

In fact, he could have left this kind of trivial matter to Jiang Haitao, but early in the morning, Lu Changsheng, the chief of the production department, led a large group of people to block the door of his office.

Therefore, he could only take the opportunity to hide out.

The car drove for more than an hour before meeting Yang Anguo and the others halfway.

These two guys were sitting on the roadside to rest. Yang Anguo was lying on the roadside with a piece of dead grass in his mouth, looking listless.

Ma Juzi, on the other hand, was sitting in high spirits and talking to a woman not far away. The woman was holding her child. Looking at the way they were talking and laughing, those who didn't know it thought they were a family of three.

Yang Jun signaled the driver to park the car aside, and then he got out of the car.

The three of them saw a truck approaching the roadside and all turned around to look.

"Oh, my dear brother, have you brought anything to eat?"

Yang Anguo's native dialect came out again.

He climbed up from the ground, touched Yang Jun's body, and then went to the car to look for it.

Yang Jun kicked him angrily and then walked towards Ma Juzi.

Ma Juzi looked at him with a blushing face and subconsciously stayed away from the woman holding the child.

"why you?"

Yang Jun was stunned for a moment and asked.

The woman holding the child was none other than the mother and son he met while buying a scooter in Mentougou Village.

"Brother, I finally caught up with you, and I'm here to pay you back."

The woman's face was pale, as if she was hungry, tired and weak.

She took out a bulging handkerchief from her pocket, opened it, and found a bright yellow gold bar inside.

Yang Jun took a look and saw that this gold bar was exactly what he had left to the mother and son.

I was out of sympathy and wanted to help her.

Unexpectedly, this woman was so honest that she chased after him to return the money.

Yang Jun did not answer today, but looked at their dusty appearance and asked,

"Why are you with them?"

"This is our family's truck. I recognize it. I begged these two eldest brothers to find you. Now that I have finally found you, I can't take the money."

She sent the money forward again.

"What money?" Yang Jun frowned deliberately and said, "Didn't you say that the cart was given to us?"

When the woman heard this, her face turned red.

"Brother, please stop pretending. I know this money must have been left by you. I am poor but ambitious. You are a good person. I accept your offer, but... I really can't accept this money."

Yang Jun wanted to say something else, but the woman put the gold bar directly into his hand.

Then she bowed to Yang Jun, turned around and walked back with her child in her arms.

"Wait a moment."

Yang Jun stopped her.

"Sister, I admit that this money is what I left for you. This is also a little bit of my thoughts, so just accept it."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The woman turned around, with tears in her eyes, she choked and said,

"Brother, you are a good person. The fact that you can leave me such a large amount of money shows that you really want to help me."

The woman shed tears as she spoke, and the baby in his arms also began to cry.

"Brother, I see that you are a capable person. If you really want to help me, can you help me leave this family?"

"What's wrong?" Yang Jun was stunned when he heard this and asked quickly.

The woman was busy coaxing the baby in her arms, and Ma Juzi next to her explained for her,

"Brother, it's like this..."

From Ma Juzi's words, Yang Jun learned that the woman in front of him was named Zhou Miaomiao. She was originally from Zhoujiabao. She married to Mentougou Village two years ago. Her life after marriage was quite decent. She and her husband were very affectionate and had a baby.

Female, but two months ago, Zhou Miaomiao's husband was pulling dirt on a cart and passed by a steep slope. The car failed to stop, and the person was swept under the car and died.

Since she became a widow, the idle men in the village often harassed him. Even her parents-in-law and mother-in-law forced her to remarry her brother-in-law. She said that the wealth should not go to outsiders. Of course she disagreed, but her parents-in-law and brother-in-law harassed her every day.

Show her face, and if she doesn't agree, torture her every day.

Zhou Miaomiao really couldn't bear it anymore, and seeing that Yang Jun was a capable and kind-hearted person, he made this request.

Yang Jun looked at poor Zhou Miaomiao, and then at Ma Juzi, who looked sympathetic.

Unexpectedly, after not seeing each other for one night, Ma Juzi and Zhou Miaomiao would become so familiar with each other, and they would tell him all about this family scandal.

"Brother, Sister Zhou is quite pitiful. How about we help her?"

Ma Juzi stepped forward and said.

Yang Jun rolled his eyes at her.

Are you familiar with them?

He opened his mouth and called her Sister Zhou.

Although they all call her sister, the names are different and have different meanings.

Da Meizi is a general term, while Zhou Meizi is a term of intimacy that refers to people who are related to each other to a certain extent.

"Sister, I helped you with this."

Yang Jun had a very good impression of Zhou Miaomiao, especially when they first met, he said he would give them a trolley. At that moment, Yang Jun made up his mind to help her, which is why he later placed a cart on the pot table.

Gold bars move.

Now that I heard about her experience, I tried to help her out of her misery.

However, situations like hers where "older brothers eventually marry younger brothers" are common in rural areas. When the elder brother dies, the sister-in-law will remarry the younger brother. This not only solves the problem of not giving bride gifts when marrying a wife, but also preserves the family's flesh and blood.

This is something that kills two birds with one stone.

Many feudal families have this mentality. They ignore human rights, ignore the law, and insist on maintaining human relations such that the wealth does not flow to outsiders.

"You have to make your own decision on this matter. You are a free agent and not someone's appendage. No one can force you as long as you don't want to."

"But... if I don't agree, they will beat me."

Zhou Miaomiao cried and rolled up her sleeves, revealing the shocking scars on her arms.

When Yang Jun and Ma Juzi saw the scar, they were immediately furious.

There are dense scars all over the arms, some were beaten with sticks, some were whipped, and some were pinched with hands. There is almost no intact skin.

This is just the arm. As for the rest of the body, it's probably not much better.

"In this case, you go back to your parents' house to stay for a few days, and I will take care of the rest." Yang Jun said thoughtfully.

"I... there is no one in my natal family. I was raised by my uncle since I was a child. My aunt will not give me a good look."

Yang Jun was startled when he heard this.

Another poor woman.

"Sister Zhou, that family said you can't go back. I'm afraid you will be beaten to death."

Ma Juzi tore his hair hard with both hands, his eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and said.

"I...where else can I go if I don't go back?" Zhou Miaomiao had tears in her eyes.

The end of the world is vast, where is the way home?

The world is so big that there is no place for her.

Yang Jun irritably took out his cigarette and broke three matches before lighting it.

"Well, you come back with us and I'll take care of the rest."
