Chapter 7 The violent wife-lord will hurt others (7)
Tying the hemp rope to the tree, Su Qiruo wanted to use the pulley principle to pull the bear up, but found that her strength was not enough.
It seemed that she couldn't do it on her own. Thinking of the book that said that the original owner and a few friends hunted a wild boar together, Su Qiruo decided to go back to the village and ask someone to help move it together. Then they would have some money.
.
After marking the area nearby, Su Qiruo carried the sack and walked out of the mountain.
This trip must have taken most of the day, and it would probably be midnight by the time someone was called to pull the bear back to the village.
Afraid that Yun Zimu would be worried, Su Qiruo went back home first.
Yun Zimu, who hadn't eaten anything all day, was sitting in the yard washing the bedding and blankets that had been removed from the bed, while lowering his eyes and thinking about how he was going to live in the next half month.
The wife cooked half a month's worth of food in one meal, and he really couldn't eat it.
Yun Zimu, who was originally extremely dissatisfied and complained about Su Qiruo, saw that Su Qiruo came back covered in blood. All his complaints disappeared, leaving only fear and worry in his heart.
"Master Wife, you...what's wrong with you?"
Seeing the injuries on Su Qiruo's face, Yun Zimu stood up in a hurry and rushed over, not even paying attention when he kicked over the wash basin.
Su Qiruo was afraid that Yun Zimu's clothes would be stained, so she took two steps back slightly before smiling at him: "It's just a few falls in the mountains. They are all skin injuries, so it's not a problem."
After saying that, Su Qiruo put the sack in the shade of the corner and washed her face with half a basin of water beside it.
"But...wife, you lost a lot of blood!"
Yun Zimu's voice was trembling. He should have been secretly happy to see Su Qiruo injured, because she always bullied him.
But in his heart, apart from fear and worry, he didn't feel happy at all.
"Don't be afraid, that's the blood from the bear, not mine."
Su Qiruo not only had to endure the pain of the wound, but also comforted Yun Zimu, which felt very awkward.
"Have you had your meal? Didn't you say you were not allowed to go to the floor until your leg injury healed? Why did you wash the mattress again?"
Su Qiruo bent down and picked up the overturned basin, rubbed it a few times and hung the blanket up to dry.
Su Qiruo, who wanted to go inside to drink some water, froze with tenderness on her face when she saw the untouched rice in the pot.
"Zimu, come here."
When he heard Su Qiruo calling him, Yun Zimu didn't care about the injury on his leg and hurriedly trotted in to follow.
When he saw the displeasure on Su Qiruo's face, Yun Zimu closed his eyes and waited for the unknown pain.
"Why don't you eat?"
The pain he imagined did not come, but a cold hand pinched his nose, making him breathless.
Yun Zimu's eyelashes trembled, and she slowly opened her eyes. What caught her eyes was Su Qiruo's face, which looked distressed.
Yun Zimu couldn't help being stunned. She didn't mean to beat him, she just blamed him for not eating?
Perhaps Su Qiruo had been too gentle these days, so Yun Zimu had the courage to express his dissatisfaction.
"My wife shouldn't be so wasteful. We only have these rice grains at home. If we eat them all, won't we be hungry for the rest of the day?"
Yun Zimu's swollen little face looked like a little squirrel chewing pine nuts. Only then did Su Qiruo realize how cute this young man was.
Just listen to Su Qiruo chuckle, her tone is also rare gentleness, and also full of doting.
"Are you really so useless as your wife? Zimu, I will definitely work hard to make money for you to live a good life in the future, and I will never do anything wrong again. Are you willing to give me a chance?"
Su Qiruo said this very seriously, making Yun Zimu want to nod involuntarily.
"Then you just eat well and I'll find someone to move the bear back. I'll sell it at the market tomorrow and bring you delicious food in the evening."
Su Qiruo didn't dare to delay any longer. If the bear wasn't brought back for a while, she wouldn't be able to rest assured.
"My wife, let's go after dinner!"
Yun Zimu said in a low voice, he was not someone who cared about others. When he said these words, he was stunned.
"I have eaten. You have eaten all that. If I come back in the evening and see there is still rice in the pot, I will take it all out to feed the dog."
Su Qiruo threatened Yun Zimu with a few words. Thinking that she might not come back too early in the evening, she gave one more instruction.
"I'll bolt the door for you later. Don't wait for me tonight. Get some rest early."
Before Yun Zimu could ask any more questions, Su Qiruo carried the hemp rope and walked out.
Staring blankly at the man's leaving figure, Yun Zimu's heart skipped a beat.
"My wife doesn't seem to be that bad..."
Thinking of Su Qiruo's threatening words before leaving, Yun Zimu hurriedly scooped out all the steaming porridge from the pot.
After eating and feeding the rabbit, Yun Zimu bolted the door from the inside, took out a handkerchief from the broken wooden cabinet on the side, and began to embroider it.
After he was bought back by Su Qiruo, he had been selling handkerchiefs in exchange for some copper coins to supplement his family income. Although he was no longer beaten, he was still afraid of going hungry.
If the family ran out of food, the wife would definitely sell him.
Although Su Qiruo was not a good person, she was still his wife after all. If he was asked to serve different women like those prostitutes, he would rather die.
Su Qiruo left home and went to find Lu Dasheng and the others according to the descriptions in her memory. Lu Dasheng was quite a kind person, and he was the more sensible among the friends Su Qiruo had made before.
Su Qiruo often played with Lu Qimei from the village chief's family. The reason why she was called Lu Qimei was because she had six brothers. She finally got such a daughter, and the family always pampered her.
Lu Qimei also got involved in all the messy things Su Qiruo did before.
Lu Ziping was the one who listened to Su Qiruo's words the most. She had lost her mother and father since she was a child and often went to Su's house to have dinner. Even her name was given by Su Qiruo's mother.
Four young women went into the mountains together and were stunned when they saw the big black bear.
"Sister Qiruo, you are so powerful, you can catch such a big thing."
Lu Ziping couldn't help but praise Su Qiruo. All the money from the wild boar they hunted some time ago was used by Su Qiruo to buy Yun Zimu. Now that they bought this big black bear, they would be rich.
.
"Yes! Qi Ruo, you are so brave."
Lu Qimei also smacked her lips, and then rolled up her sleeves to help Lu Dasheng tie the rope.
"I paid for this with your sister's life."
Su Qiruo pointed to the wounds on her body, and everyone fell silent instantly.
"Now that you have a family, you should live a good life."
