Wanting the hairpin back

After eating the buns, Cheng Huai went out with his bow and arrow, while Li Dahu hid in the haystack beside the Cheng family's house.

Yu Ying handed the big and small babies into the hands of Li Guihua, "Two children will cause trouble to Sister Li."

Li Guihua hugged the two children tightly and said with a smile: "It's not troublesome, you go quickly."

Dabao and Xiaobao are no strangers to Li Guihua. Yu Ying often takes them to visit Li's house, so there is no fuss when Yu Ying and Jiang Miao leave.

Jiang Miao and Yu Ying went to the backyard, put all the dirty clothes in the tub, and each carried one piece out, locking the door when they went out.

Cheng Huai was not far ahead and happened to see the man in black giving sweets to Niu Niu. No adults were around.

Cheng Huai didn't pay much attention and strode away with his bow and arrow.

Yu Ying turned her head and asked Jiang Miao in a low voice: "Girl Miao, is that him?"

Jiang Miao nodded: "Well, mother, let's go there quickly."

Yu Ying immediately stopped talking.

He didn't deliberately look at that person, but turned to look at Aunt Zhang who was feeding chickens next to her.

When she saw Jiang Miao and Yu Ying, Aunt Zhang enthusiastically shouted: "Yu Ying, let's go wash clothes with Jiang Miao!"

Jiang Miao nodded gently and said hello.

Yu Ying nodded repeatedly and said with a smile: "Yes, I am feeding the chickens. Oh, one of them has grown so fat!"

"Yes, if you get fatter, let my man take it to the town and sell it."

"Then you can leave one for me when the time comes, just in time to replenish the health of my two boys at home."

When business comes to your door, Aunt Zhang naturally nods and agrees: "Okay, I will ask my man to take you to your house when the time comes."

"Okay, then it's settled!"

Seeing that the man was still playing with Niu Niu, Yu Ying and Jiang Miao continued to walk towards the river holding the wooden basin.

While Aunt Zhang was feeding the chickens, she also secretly glanced at Zhang Xiu and her brother, her face full of vigilance.

It seemed that whenever there was something wrong with him, she would yell for the whole village to come over.

Seeing Yu Ying and Jiang Miao leaving, the man in black stood up and followed them.

When they arrived at the river, there were fewer people washing clothes. Jiang Miao and Yu Ying each chose a stone, took out the clothes, soaked them, and started beating them with a mallet.

After a while, Jiang Mei also came, holding clothes in her hands and calling in a soft voice: "Hello, aunt, Jiang Miao is here too."

Yu Ying only knew that Aunt Jiang Miao was not a good person, but she had not had much contact with Jiang Mei. When he saw her greeting her, he thought he had a good relationship with Jiang Miao, so he nodded gently.

Jiang Miao turned her head to look at Jiang Mei. When she saw the hairpin on her head, she couldn't help but squint her eyes and couldn't help holding the stick.

On the river bank, people passing by chatted.

Seeing Cheng Huai going up the mountain and coming back, he couldn't help but ask: "Cheng Huai, why are you back again? Aren't you going to hunt today?"

"I forgot something." Cheng Huai replied in a calm voice, carrying his bow and arrows and rushing home.

The rough man walked steadily. Jiang Miao couldn't help but look up and was splashed in the face by the river water.

Jiang Mei stood up suddenly as if convulsed, and the clothes in her hands fell into the river, and all the water hit Jiang Miao's face.

Seeing her hurriedly wanting to leave, Jiang Miao seemed to have thought of something and grabbed her hand, "You want to leave just because you make me wet?"

"Jiang Miao, let me go, I didn't mean it!" An anxious look appeared on Jiang Mei's face.

Jiang Miao knelt down, scooped up hand water and poured it on her face, "Doesn't it make sense if you didn't do it on purpose?"

"Ah! What are you doing!" Jiang Mei was startled.

Jiang Miao raised her eyebrows slightly: "What's wrong? I didn't mean it. Why are you angry?"

"You" Jiang Mei bit her lower lip, "You have finished splashing, you can let me go now!"

Jiang Miao grabbed her and refused to let go, "Why are we walking? You put my mother's relics on your head and want to leave? Give it back to me!"

Jiang Mei's expression changed at this moment. She raised her hand and grabbed the hairpin, "My mother gave it to me!"

"Okay, then let's go to your mother and ask her. I want to see what she says?" Jiang Miao's tone became colder.

Jiang Mei didn't have the patience anymore. When she saw Cheng Huai walking further and further away, she became extremely flustered.

Shaking off Jiang Miao's hand, she ran towards the river bank regardless.

Yu Ying rushed over to stop her with a mallet, put her hands on her hips and cursed: "I thought you were a good guy, but you tried to run away after taking other people's things, and you almost pushed my little girl into the river!"

Jiang Mei was stunned for a moment and turned pale: "Auntie, you have misunderstood me. My mother really gave this to me."

"Then why are you running? Let's go and ask Zhang Xiu!" Yu Ying, with a thick waist and round legs, was lying in front of Jiang Mei, rolling up her sleeves and refusing to let her go.

Since it may be Miao Yatou's relic, we must ask clearly. We must get back nothing less, and we must not let Zhang Xiu, that damn woman, take advantage of it.

"I have something to do now, can I go see my mother later?" Jiang Mei asked anxiously.

Jiang Miao ran over and stopped her: "No!"

She was in such a hurry that she might have rushed to report the news.

If she had just suspected it just now, Jiang Mei's performance now confirmed her suspicion.

Jiang Mei is afraid that she knows what bad things her uncle is doing. To be more precise, they are a team!

Seeing that she couldn't leave, Jiang Mei felt cruel and pulled the hairpin out of her hair, "Then I'll return the hairpin to your head office. Let me go!"

Jiang Miao took the hairpin, and Yu Ying was about to let go. Jiang Mei breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and ran towards the river bank.

I saw Zhang Xiu running down the river bank in a scolding manner, and dragged Jiang Mei down by the way, "Yu Ying, you damn bitch, are you bullying my Jiang Mei just because I'm not around?"

Yu Ying immediately picked up the mallet and cursed back: "Zhang Xiu, you are a murderer with a thousand swords. You dare to steal the relics of Miao Yatou Niang. Aren't you afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night?"

Zhang Xiu's eyes flashed, "What am I afraid of? If you have the ability, just let her come!"

"Okay, I'm going to knock you on the forehead for her now and dig out your heart to see if it's evil!" Yu Ying rushed over and was about to hit Zhang Xiu on the head.

Zhang Xiu was so frightened that she pulled Jiang Mei and ran to the river bank again, her face filled with anger.

"You old widow, you robbed my things and you dared to beat me!"

"Bah, this belongs to Miss Miao. If you, an old pious woman, dare to ask for anything, your hands and feet will be cut off sooner or later!"

"You" Zhang Xiu couldn't scold Jiang Mei, so he reached out and pushed Jiang Mei, his face full of anger, "Who asked you to steal it and wear it on your head? Get it back quickly!"

Jiang Mei was so anxious that she almost cried. She still had time to tell her uncle, "Mom, please let me go!"

"Why don't you go? You don't want the hairpin back. Where do you want to go? Please pay attention to your stupid body!" Zhang Xiuqi pinched her hard and looked at Yu Ying and Jiang Miao with resentment.

She managed to get that hosta from her mother-in-law. She could exchange it for two or three taels of silver, which was enough for her son to go to school.

Now it was taken away by this dead girl Jiang Miao, she couldn't swallow this breath no matter what!
