He also took the time to shout to Mrs. Zhao in the room: "Xiao Liu, have you packed up? Hurry up, it will get dark if you wait any longer!"

Madam Zhao quickly responded: "Hey, mother, you'll be fine soon!"

The reason why things were so slow to clean up was actually because my son had a habit of wetting the bed, and the mattress on the bed had a faint smell of urine. He usually didn't feel it when he slept on it, so he couldn't let his guests sleep like this.

All I could do was lay an old, washed mattress on the bottom, and a newer thin mattress on top... After all the trouble, I had to dump the quilts from my mother-in-law into my mother-in-law's house, so naturally it couldn't be done quickly.

It wasn't until they finished their work that the two sisters took them to sit down and asked them some questions under the moonlight.

This is indeed Linjia Village near Qingyun Mountain.

Because it is located in a mountainous area, to get to the nearest town, you have to cross Qingyun Mountain.

And because the road out of the mountain is difficult, people in the village don't go out often. If there are things that must be bought, they are entrusted to people who want to go down the mountain to buy them.

Mrs. Zhou and the others basically live their own lives behind closed doors and don't know much about the outside world.

This was something Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu didn't consider. They only thought about being willing to stay with them and the safety of the two girls, but they didn't think about the current social situation.

Perhaps it was because there had been no outsiders to talk to Old Mrs. Zhou for many years. When asked about some family situations, Old Mrs. Zhou directly asked the two sisters to complain.

Of course, the main thing is to pull Jiang Yu.

This girl is so cute, with a round face, and she looks as cute as our little tiger.

That girl Xiaoyao is really pretty, but those eyes make her look like she's been seen out at a glance. It's so amazing.

"I was sold here with just two bags of grain. Fortunately, my boss treated me as a human being, so I devoted myself to living with him. When he saw that I was quick with my hands and feet, and that I was good at living, he treated me very well.

It's getting better and better. Soon, I got pregnant." When Mrs. Zhou said this, she looked nostalgic and her face softened a lot.

"Who would have thought that God was deliberately trying not to make things easier for me. I was only three months pregnant at that time. My father-in-law broke his leg and was bedridden. Uncle Qi from the village gave me some medicine, but I still didn't feel well after drinking it.

, said to send him to the town to see a doctor."

"My two uncles and my brother-in-law both felt that it was dangerous to go out, but my filial piety, the head of the family, said that he would give it away even if there was even a sliver of hope. He said that he would carry it. With such a group of people going out, they can help each other."

"I was waiting for him at home, but I only waited for the news that he had fallen down the mountain with my father-in-law on his back. But the two uncles and brother-in-law came back unscathed!" Mrs. Zhou excitedly grabbed Jiang Yu's hand and said,

"How is that possible! He also said that he would wait until my son grows up and let him ride a big horse! How could he be so careless! It must be that black-hearted person who refuses to save me!!!"

Jiang Yu quickly patted her hand comfortingly.

"I clamored for an explanation, but they beat me down and said that I killed them! They kicked me and the child out of my belly! Those people have no conscience! Maybe they were the ones who pushed the head of the household and my father-in-law down!"

"Mom." Madam Zhao called out uneasily. My mother has been having trouble with this matter for several years. Whenever she met that family, she would have a quarrel. Every time, there was no result. Fortunately, the old village chief protected their orphans and widows. But also

Advise them to live their lives well. It has been so long since the incident happened. They fell down and their bodies were not found. No one knows what happened, but the living people still have to live well.

"Why, can't you say it?! They dare not let anyone tell them what they have done! People like them will be punished sooner or later."

"..." Mrs. Zhao, the doormat, had nothing to say and had to watch her continue.

"Those heartless people, once my father-in-law left and there was no one to oppress them anymore, they called for separation of families. They said it was separation of families, but they had to give me two bags of grain for the sake of the child in my belly.

, kicked me out."

"Don't you think it's ridiculous? I was sold into the Lin family with two bags of grain, and then kicked out of the Lin family with two bags of grain. If the old village chief hadn't given our mother and daughter a dilapidated house on the mountainside to live in, and the help of the villagers, I would have been

He Dazhuang may have died long ago."

Mentioning her son, Mrs. Zhou's mood improved again: she said with a look of relief and satisfaction: "My son is big and strong. He is a smart child. He has been sensible since he was a child. He helps me with my work until he can walk. He is a little older.

, I learned how to dig traps and hunt with Uncle Jiu. He went hunting in the mountains without telling me, and managed to earn a family fortune. Not only did he own several acres of fertile land, build this yard, but he also married a daughter-in-law."

"I don't ask for his future, I just hope that he will grow up safely. Who knew that he and his father had the same fate? Once when he went hunting in the mountains, he was bitten to death by a wolf." At this point, Mrs. Zhou covered her face.

His face was crying silently.

Although no one could hear it except Jiang Yu, they could all feel the sadness and depression in Mrs. Zhou.

She was so depressed that she needed to talk to the stranger she met for the first time.

No one bothered her. They knew that she had been holding it in for too long and needed to vent and be listened to.

After crying for a while, it seemed that she had finished venting. Mrs. Zhou raised her head and looked at Mrs. Zhao, whose eyes were also red, and Lin Xiaohu in her arms. "It's pitiful that you and I, an old woman, depend on each other for life. My old woman, thank you, thank you, for my son."

Giving birth to the little tiger gives me something to look forward to, otherwise I might have gone with them long ago."

"Mom, you can't leave us behind. Without you, how can I take care of Xiaohu by myself?" Mrs. Zhao said nervously.

"Don't worry, my old lady will take good care of you. I still have to wait for my little tiger to grow up and start a family... When I die, I can go underground and talk to them about our children and grandchildren.

"

After Mrs. Zhou recovered, she said to Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu apologetically: "Xiaoyao, Xiaoyu, don't be offended. Old lady, I have held it in for too long. I finally met someone who was willing to listen to me. I couldn't bear it for a while."

live……"

Madam Zhao said angrily: "Mother said this as if I don't want to listen to you."

"No matter how willing you are to listen, I can't tell you this. I want to tell you this. The two of us hug each other and cry every day. Can we still live a good life?"

"Mom, you are right." Mrs. Zhao responded obediently.

Old Mrs. Zhou was satisfied and said to the two sisters: "You want to know the world and the current era. I can't help you, old lady. No one told me this. I only know that it is early November. I don't know what happened in the past."

I don’t remember much. My seventh uncle said that maybe the kidnapper gave me some poison and it got bad. I only know that I was sold into the Lin family when I was 19 and gave birth to Dazhuang when I was 20. Dazhuang was 21 when he left last year. This year

I should be..." Grandma Zhou hesitated, she had never calculated her age.

Jiang Yu: "...42 years old."

The two sisters were shocked. They were only 42 years old, younger than their biological mother, but they looked like they were in their sixties or seventies.

But thinking about the age at which people in ancient times got married and had children, Grandma Zhou, no, Aunt Zhou was relatively late.

The two couldn't help turning their heads to look at Madam Zhao. She looked to be in her thirties, couldn't she be Sister Zhao?

Mrs. Zhao thought they wanted to ask her, so she shook her head and said, "Seventh uncle said that I broke it and bit it on my head. I don't remember anything about the past."

Jiang Yao, Jiang Yu: "..."

How lucky are they to pick someone who both has amnesia at the first pick?

Jiang Yu couldn't help but think: There can't be another mystery about his life experience, right?

Seeing the two people stunned, Mrs. Zhou thought it was disappointment and consoled her: "Don't worry, it's too late today. I'll help you ask Mrs. Sun next door tomorrow to rest early tonight."

After a pause, he added: "But there are not many people in the mountains who know this. I really can't do it. I'll ask the fourth aunt's mother-in-law's house in the creek in a few days. This kid often goes to town. I guess he can know."

A lot of things.”

"Didn't you say that the way down the mountain is difficult? Why does he still go to town so often?"

"That kid is smart. He knows that people in the mountains don't go out often, so he helps the villagers take things out to sell, and then helps buy things back to earn some hard money. That's not hard money, it's life money!"

"But last year, a group of people came to Qingyun Mountain. They were said to be bandits. They went to the villages in the nearby mountains to recruit some people. Our village went to the creek. It is said that the group's village is near our Linjia Village.

, for the convenience of entry and exit, the road was slightly rested."

Jiang Yu was surprised and said: "The bandits are still building roads?"

"More than that, since they came, the wild beasts on the mountain have rarely come down. People in the village don't know, but our big brother learned hunting from Uncle Jiu, and he told me a lot before, I know,

Over the past year, there has been significantly less movement on this mountainside."

"There were fewer casualties from the villagers who entered the mountains. It's a pity that my strong family didn't wait for them to come, otherwise they might not have died."
