The sky is thousands of miles long, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, everything is silent except for insects hibernating in the grass and chirping, and one or two dogs barking faintly in the distance.
In Bei'aozi, there is a candle looming in the darkness, adding a bit of mystery.
With a squeak, Su Xiao jumped up like a grasshopper, grabbed Su Liu's hand tightly, and asked nervously: "Sister, did you hear that?"
Su Liu was shocked by her sudden surprise. Another squeaking sound came from the corner of the room, and she couldn't help but said with a smile: "I heard it, it's just a mouse."
Su Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, but her hand was still holding Su Liu's hand tightly. Dong Zhangxiang said in fear: "Sister, no, there won't be, is there that?"
Mrs. Chen was most afraid of this. After hearing this, she suddenly felt chills and immediately shouted: "Xiao Xiao, you are not allowed to talk nonsense at night."
Su Xiao shrank from being scolded and curled her lips in grievance.
Su Liu shook her head when she saw it. It was only the first night, so no wonder she felt scared. Even she herself was a little panicked. She had to let them divert their attention.
"I'm not sleepy yet, how about we go to town tomorrow to buy something for home?"
Su Xiao became interested after hearing this and said, "Sister, do we still have money?" Even Mrs. Chen looked at Su Liu with a hint of expectation in her eyes.
Su Liu smiled and said, "Have you forgotten, didn't you get two taels of silver today?" After saying that, he took out the silver given by Mr. Su, and then took out the rest and put them together.
"The money for this house has been paid off, and now we only have two to eight hundred dollars left, so we have to save some money." Su Liu counted the money and said to Chen and the others.
After leaving the house, apart from their own clothes, they did not bring a single cabinet out of the Su family. In this house, some cabinets were shabby, but they could at least store some things. There were really no other small items.
"We need to buy some rice, noodles, bowls and chopsticks. Although Zhao Lizheng also gave some, it's not enough." Mrs. Chen first said: "If you can, buy some more needles and threads. Mom can give me some shoe soles and pick up some needlework to do."
A few bucks."
"Mom, don't forget, we still have land behind our house. We need to buy a hoe and rapeseed seeds to grow vegetables. In this way, we will be self-sufficient." Su Liu said with a smile.
Mrs. Chen's eyes lit up after hearing this. Farm women are all like this, busy working in the vegetable fields at home.
"How about we buy some more chicks and raise them, and we'll have eggs to eat too." Su Xiao also suggested.
"I still need to buy some bedding. I think it's cooler here."
"Um."
The mother and daughter were talking and laughing, and time passed by unconsciously. They gradually felt sleepy, so they blew out the candle and lay down.
In the darkness, there was wind blowing outside the window. Su Xiao and Su Liu leaned against Chen, but they couldn't fall asleep again.
It was quiet for a while, and the only thing that could be heard was the thumping of the heartbeat, which was very permeating. Su Xiao couldn't help it anymore and said, "Mom, please sing a song for us."
Mrs. Chen was also a little apprehensive. After hearing this, she hummed and hummed slowly. The song she sang was a Huangliang song. The tone was slow and a little soft, making it seem like a lullaby. She had also been busy during the day.
One day, they all fell asleep.
Everything was silent, and there seemed to be a faint sigh coming from the air, but no one noticed it.
When the first ray of sunlight came in through the window lattice, it hit Su Liu's face. She opened her eyes and sat up.
Opening the east window, she saw a huge sunrise hanging over the mountain. She looked around and curled her lips.
The morning light is another new day.
After Su Liu got dressed, she looked for Mrs. Chen in the kitchen. The mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled, getting ready for breakfast. Su Xiaocai slowly got up, rubbing her eyes.
"Little lazy bitch." Su Liu scratched her nose.
"You all don't call me." Su Xiao pouted, sat at the table, picked up the porridge, drank it, and said with a smile: "Mom, sister, this place is not bad. That thing didn't appear last night either.
.”
Mrs. Chen's face sank, and she first hit her forehead reproachfully, then clasped her hands and bowed in the air, murmuring: "Ms. Lu, don't be surprised. Children are ignorant and talk nonsense. I will celebrate the holidays."
I will burn incense and make offerings to you."
After hearing this, Su Liu winked at Su Xiao, and Su Xiao stuck out her tongue.
After breakfast, we locked the door and went to town as planned.
There was only one road to the town, and they had to cross the main road in Da'ao Village. When Su and Liu walked into the village, they immediately exploded.
"Didn't you say they lived in a haunted house? Are they humans or ghosts now?"
"Does a ghost dare to come out in broad daylight?"
"Do you think they have seen ghosts?"
"What a shame, the Su family went too far and forced people into a haunted house."
Su Liu listened to these discussions and clicked his tongue, there was so much gossip!
There are even more gossipy ones, such as this Aunt Lianhua.
"Oh, Sister-in-law Su." Aunt Lianhua walked over quickly and called to Mrs. Chen: "I heard that you lived in a haunted house?"
Mrs. Chen smiled faintly and said, "It's the house in Bei'aozi. Mother Lianhua can come and sit there when she has time." After a pause, she continued: "By the way, Su Changsheng and I have reconciled. Mother Lianhua
Mom, it’s okay to call me Su Liuniang or Chen Meizi, otherwise, it’s okay to call me Mei Niang.”
Aunt Lianhua was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and said sarcastically: "Don't they all have the same title?"
"Aunt Lianhua, you can't say that. After all, we are divorced. If you still call my mother Su's sister-in-law, others are afraid that my mother is clinging to this surname and won't let go. Isn't she just causing trouble?" Su Liuxiao
He said: "Sister-in-law Su, she is the one from the Su family now!"
"This girl has a sharp tongue." Aunt Lianhua chuckled twice, but she was too embarrassed to ask any more questions.
Just because she didn't ask, it didn't mean that others didn't ask. When Aunt Lianhua came forward, her other aunts had already gathered around her, asking all kinds of questions about what was going on in the haunted house.
Regarding this, Su Liu had already prepared a speech to teach Chen, saying: "We also slept very well this night. I'm afraid it was Madam Lu who accepted our offerings. They all said that we were both destitute people from the end of the world, and we
He is not a treacherous and evil person. I think Mrs. Nalu has a spirit in heaven and will not embarrass us three."
As soon as Mrs. Chen finished speaking, the aunts started talking in all directions.
"But that's not the reason why we are all miserable people."
"That's right, we've all met people with bad intentions."
Su Liu secretly laughed after hearing this. People's sympathy is overwhelming. The weak will always be more sympathetic than the strong. Therefore, a weak woman is far more lovable than a woman as strong as a man.
Thinking of her future plans, Su Liu rolled her eyes, pretending to be happy and innocently said: "Mom, maybe Madam Lu will always bless us with joys and sorrows!"
It is immoral to take advantage of a dead person, but she just wanted to borrow a name and give her two more sticks of incense later.
With today's words as a foreshadowing, their lives will be better in the future, and people will not feel particularly weird. They will naturally feel that Madam Lu is blessing them to make a fortune. Who told the people here to be feudal and superstitious and believe in gods and Buddhas?
!
"Hmph! Aunts, don't believe them. Can they be safe and sound after entering a haunted house? Maybe they are already ghosts. They look like ghosts, but be careful not to be harmed by ghosts."
At this moment, an inappropriate voice sounded outside the crowd, and it was very bitter.
Su Liu looked over, but it was Su Chuntao looking at them with an unkind expression. She was also carrying a basket with a basket of pigweed in her hand, but the clothes she was wearing...
Pfft, this was originally Su Xiao's thing, but now it was Su Chuntao's fault, but she went there wearing good clothes, and the hem of her skirt had quite a few scratches.
Su Liu was a little gloating that the two sisters were no longer in the Su family. According to Huang's preference for the youngest daughter, she was absolutely reluctant to ask Su Jinfeng to cut pigweed, so the only choice was Su Chuntao.
When Su Chuntao's hands become rough, she will naturally know that when the three of them were in the Su family, her life with the Zhou family was a paradise on earth.
Su Liu was right. Mrs. Huang would not let her daughter do such work as cutting pigweed. So, she dug up Su Chuntao early in the morning and got up to do it. That's why Su Chuntao met Su Liu and the others.
It lit up like a firecracker.
Su Chuntao's words had some effect. Some people took two steps back and looked at Su Liu and the others warily.
Su Liu sneered and said: "If I am a ghost, then all the aunts are ghosts, and so are you, Su Chuntao. Oh, ghosts actually have shadows. What kind of ghost are you? Are you a pornographic ghost? A pornographic ghost.
Do you still have to cut pigweed?”
Everyone looked at Su Liu's finger. Su Chuntao's shadow stretched long in the sun. Looking at Su Liu and the others, the same thing happened.
Yes, if it is a ghost, how can there be a shadow? At this moment, listening to Su Liu talking about sexy ghosts and seeing Su Chuntao wearing a pink dress to mow the grass, they all giggled.
Su Chuntao looks like her mother, who has always been well-dressed. There is nothing wrong with dressing up at her daughter's house, but dressing like this when going to cut grass is not beautiful. In the eyes of rural people, it is a waste of good clothes and a waste of time!
Being teased by everyone and looking at the disdainful looks around her, Su Chuntao's face turned purple, she stamped her feet, glared at Su Liu fiercely, and ran away quickly.
"If you walk slower, you will be shameless and go back." Su Xiao raised his hand at her back and snorted.
Su Liu narrowed his eyes and smiled sarcastically. Living in the same village, such encounters would inevitably lead to various provocations in the future.
However, when the water comes, the soil covers them, and when the soldiers come to stop them, life in the farmhouse is too boring. Seeing them jumping up and down with anger and helplessness, they must always find some such fun in life.
"Sister, your smile is so scary." Su Xiao pulled Su Liu's sleeve, her smile seemed to be calculated, it was so penetrating.
"Let's go." Su Liu restrained herself. She would let the Su family know in the future how cruel the word "regret" would be, letting them see that they can't get what they ask for, but they can't get what they ask for.
It was actually quite cold when the author wrote this chapter. Just imagine, a woman in white with a big belly is hanging in front of you, and you have to sleep on her bed. This... 嘘嘤
