The good bed I used to sleep in was occupied by the third bedroom when the house was sold, and all the decent cabinets and other items were also occupied.
The bed on which the family took a nap was just a few wooden boards placed on adobe bricks, with a few layers of dry straw and a bed of tattered cotton wool. The pillow was also an adobe brick covered with rags.
The quilt was made of patches and patches, narrow and small, and could barely cover Madam Mu Er.
But there were two children, Mu Ying and Mu An, so they had to lay the quilt horizontally, only covering their stomachs.
As for the pots and pans, it was even more miserable, as there were no complete bowls or basins.
In addition, there are some broken boxes, broken clothes, bamboo baskets, broken pots, broken water tanks, broken tables with one leg lame, etc.
So poor, that’s all for living with only four walls...
Mu Yunhan raised his forehead and said, "I remember that I still had some things left before." He was not so completely poor.
Mu An looked at her expression carefully and explained in a low voice: "Your quilt, clothes, embroidery stand, embroidery thread, cloth ends, needles, scissors, and my mother's winter clothes were all taken away by the third aunt."
After Mu Yunhan's engagement was broken off and he committed suicide in humiliation, Mu San's wife came and took away all the decent things, saying that she wanted to sell them to repay the Zheng family's bride price.
When they stopped her, Mu San's wife said that these things were worthless and they couldn't repay the bride price, so they had to sell Mu Ying.
They only care about people and don't dare to care about things.
Mu Yunhan gritted his teeth, stuffing cow dung was really not enough.
"Sister, I'm hungry." Mu Ying hugged her legs softly, looked up at her expectantly, and kept swallowing her saliva.
Although Mu An did not speak, he looked at her eagerly.
Mrs. Mu Er's cough was weak and feeble, and her frail body seemed to be about to die at any moment. She was obviously hungry.
Although it was ten times worse than expected, at least I was able to stay away from the Mu family and live in a place where I could get shelter from the wind and rain.
"Where is the rice vat?" Mu Yunhan rolled up his sleeves and prepared to cook.
Mu Ying led her to the kitchen, and Mu An opened the lid of the rice vat. There were two dry sweet potatoes inside, without a single grain in them.
There is no firewood, no water, no food, no bedding... There are still patients lying in bed waiting to take medicine...
The original owner is considered strong. After going through such hardships and hardships for the past few years, no wonder he has a bitter look on his face.
"Let's eat egg noodles." Mu Yunhan showed a bright smile. Everyone in the family needs to take supplements, otherwise their health will deteriorate and they will spend money.
Mu Ying and Mu An drooled at the same time: "Really? Is sister rich?"
"Yes." Mu Yunhan patted his waist confidently, his expression suddenly changed.
Her cloth bag with money is missing!
"What's wrong?" Mu An and Mu Ying realized something was wrong and gathered around anxiously, "Did sister drop something?"
Mu Yunhan smiled: "It's nothing. Sister will come as soon as she goes. You guys will watch over my mother and sweep the floor clean."
As soon as he walked out of the courtyard, Mu Yunhan stopped smiling.
Where did she drop her money?
Gu family? On the way?
She couldn't remember anyone touching her on the road, nor did she remember that she had ever put down a cloth bag at Gu's house.
Then the only way is to find it all the way back. This is the capital for her to make a fortune, it is her lifeblood.
Mu Yunhan lowered her head and kept looking forward. Suddenly someone ran over and pushed her hard.
The girl screamed: "Mu Yunhan, you are a loser, a broom star, a shameless person, please give back to my father and mother!"
Mu Yunhan was caught off guard and was pushed so hard that he stumbled and fell to the ground. (To be continued)
