When night fell, the girl standing in the corner of the main hall couldn't help but shiver.
The weather on this mountain is much colder in autumn than at home.
She couldn't help but hugged her shoulders. The night in the mountains was darker and quieter than other places, and the chirping of unknown birds and animals was also particularly clear.
Finally, when she could not help but chatter with her teeth, a gentle knock on the door came from not far away.
The girl's nerves suddenly became tense, her breathing stopped, and she clung to the wall.
Not long after the knock on the door, a small figure came out from the courtyard on the viewer's side and opened the door with a creak.
Even through the thick darkness of the night, the girl seemed to be able to see the figure clearly. Her body couldn't help but tremble, her fingers clenched fiercely in her palms, anger and fear intertwined.
A large figure and a small one quickly flashed into the yard over there, and the door was locked.
The girl waited for another moment before running away tremblingly.
It took a lot of effort to steady her trembling hands and unlock the door. She went in and quickly locked the door. The girl leaned on the door panel and gasped for air. Suddenly she saw a figure standing in the corridor. She was so frightened that she screamed.
.
"It's me." Cheng Jiaoniang said.
The girl patted her chest and gasped for several breaths before she regained her composure.
"Madam, what are you doing standing here?" She stepped forward quickly, and using the light in the room, she saw Cheng Jiaoniang standing on the porch wearing only socks, and said hurriedly.
"Look at the sky." Cheng Jiaoniang said, slightly raising her head to look at the night sky.
It was pitch black and there was no starlight at all.
The girl looked back, what's so good about this...
"Madam, it's getting cold, don't stand here barefoot." She said and helped Cheng Jiaoniang inside.
The two sat down in front of the couch, and the girl looked nervous.
"Madam, the thief is really here." She said in a trembling voice, "What should I do?"
Cheng Jiaoniang nodded.
"That'll be easy," she said.
How could it be easy to deal with when the bad guys came? The girl was puzzled, but she didn't ask. She looked at the lady under the lamp. If it were any other woman who encountered such humiliation and fright, she would have been angry, sad and crying. But from beginning to end, the lady
They all looked calm.
Looking at her calm face, the girl's panicked heart seemed to be soothed. At the same time, she couldn't help but smile bitterly. Who would have thought that a fool could bring comfort to others, and she seemed to still rely on her.
"If he doesn't come, it will be dangerous. He will definitely take risks. In that case, you and I won't have time." Cheng Jiaoniang looked at the girl and decided to say a few more words. Otherwise, if the girl is always in panic, she will inevitably do something wrong.
, "He is here, saying that he is afraid, and wants to come and think of a countermeasure with that woman. This countermeasure must be that I am a fool, saying that this matter is a misunderstanding, and then comforting you and asking you to keep quiet. In this way, they must be
I won’t make things difficult for you and me anymore, and we will be stable for the time being.”
The girl suddenly understood and felt calmer.
"Whether it is yes or no, you will know tomorrow." Cheng Jiaoniang said, while slowly lying down.
These words made her extremely tired.
The girl quickly helped her arrange the pillows, covered her with a thin quilt, looked at Cheng Jiaoniang who had closed her eyes, and sat down in front of the couch.
She recalled what Cheng Jiaoniang had just said and sat up straight.
"Madam, you are saying that we are safe for the time being, but what about in the future? They will still attack us..." she said tremblingly.
Cheng Jiaoniang lay still and didn't move or speak. She seemed to have fallen asleep.
The girl didn't dare to ask again. After all, she was more afraid of this matter than herself. Don't remind her over and over again.
She put out the light and put down the curtain.
Nowadays, she has to do all the daily work alone. She can't finish it during the day. She has to do all the washing, pickling and other tasks at night.
The lights were on in the kitchen, and the little figures were busy.
Cheng Jiaoniang in the room slowly turned over and opened her eyes slightly.
"In the future? They will have no chance in the future." She said slowly.
At dawn, when I heard that Cheng Jiaoniang was going out for a walk, the girl almost cried.
"Madam, let's stay at home, it's too dangerous to go out," she said.
"Staying at home, you never know what dangers there are, and you have no way to deal with them. This is the most dangerous thing." Cheng Jiaoniang said, holding her arm, "Let's go, don't be afraid."
Is there really nothing to be afraid of?
The girl opened the door tremblingly, screamed in fright, and grabbed the door bolt.
"My lady, please forgive me. My lady, please forgive me." The man kneeling in front of the door kowtowed, "It was all my fault yesterday. I bumped into my wife. I will accept the punishment and accept the punishment. I only ask my wife to spare my life."
He began to howl as he spoke.
"I have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old baby at home. The whole family is counting on me to survive." He shouted, kowtowing, "Mother, please spare my life."
The spectators standing aside were also busy scolding him.
"You rush into my wife like this and you still want to survive?" she yelled angrily.
"Xiangu, Xiangu Mingjian, I really didn't mean to enter the lady's yard that day. I heard the lady calling for someone, so I went to take a look. I really didn't." The man yelled, "If you don't believe me, ask the lady."
"My wife is mentally retarded. Whatever you say is what you say. How can I prove it?" the viewer shouted.
"Then you can't just say whatever you say. I've been wronged for a long time!" The man yelled, looking aggrieved.
The girl was trembling with anger as she watched and listened. This must be the countermeasure this couple came up with last night!
I think her wife is stupid, so I want to blame her for the problem. Whatever you say is what it is, and what a fool says is of course nothing.
It's just that they don't know that her wife is not a fool.
The girl held the door bolt and stepped forward to open her mouth.
Cheng Jiaoniang's voice sounded first and last.
"Go play and catch butterflies," she said.
The girl was stunned, and so was the viewer, but the kneeling man was ecstatic.
"Look, look, that's what I was talking about yesterday!" he shouted, pointing at Cheng Jiaoniang, "she was the one who called me in yesterday and then asked me to catch butterflies for her. I said there were no butterflies on the mountain at this time.
She started crying, and I got scared and wanted to comfort her, but you guys came in and beat her without any explanation!"
I really didn't expect that this idiot could actually speak, and what he said was so timely and to the point.
The man couldn't hide his joy and got up from the ground.
The girl was surprised but understood the lady's reminder. She held up the door bolt and did not take another step forward.
"Then, you can't just enter my yard. My wife is a fool and is ignorant. You, are you ignorant too?" she said in a trembling voice.
It was done, and the viewer and the man felt relieved.
"I didn't know your wife was a fool." The man snorted.
"Okay, Huang Erlang, why don't you get an advantage and act like a good boy? I saw that your family, old and young, were having a hard time, so I asked you to deliver firewood to earn some money. I'm so used to you that you don't know the rules. Who let you roam around in my house?"
Yes!" the spectator shouted, glaring at the man.
The man curled his lips and reluctantly stopped talking.
"Okay, okay, since it was a misunderstanding, Miss Banqin, don't be angry." The viewer said, glaring at the man again, "Get out of here, I will spare your life this time, and don't come to deliver firewood in the future."
The man muttered a few times, turned around and walked away.
The viewer smiled in relief and reached out to grab the door bolt in Banqin's hand.
"Okay, okay, I'll beat him away. From now on, I won't let him enter the temple even a single step, so that Miss Banqin can calm down. It's all my fault," she said.
Banqin bit her lower lip, wishing she could hit the woman on the head with a bolt.
"Go play, go play." Cheng Jiaoniang said from behind.
Banqin let go of her hand, and the viewer was overjoyed to see that she was obedient.
"Okay, okay, good girl, I really scared you this time." She said, "I will cook myself tonight to make some dishes for you, sister, to calm down the shock."
The girl lowered her head and didn't want to look at her.
"I took my wife out to play," she said.
"Okay, okay, go ahead." The viewer said, patting her arm with a smile and sighing, "Thank you for your hard work."
The girl helped Cheng Jiaoniang away without saying anything.
Watching the two people disappear into the courtyard, a proud smile appeared on the viewer's face.
"Let's just say, a fool and a little girl are not easy to coax." She said and walked away swaying.
In the corner, two children sat slowly on firewood.
"Sister, let's run."
This time the sister did not answer. In the shadow where the morning light was not available, the two children sat tremblingly.
