"Since you like this wife so much, you can sleep together at night!" Li Cuihua said with a hint of wretchedness in her expression, "Remember to have a good marriage. Only after marriage and giving birth to children will your wife be devoted to you!"
Dabao smiled innocently after hearing Li Cuihua's words.
Perhaps because he was afraid that Shen Nian wouldn't have the strength to resist or escape, he only gave her half a bowl of gruel to eat. In short, it was enough to keep her from starving to death.
As night fell, Shen Nian and Dabao were locked in the house.
When Li Cuihua was not there, Dabao immediately pestered Shen Nian to ask her to perform magic tricks.
"Dabao, can we play something else?" She lowered her voice and said to Dabao, "I will sing to you. My singing is very nice. I guarantee you have never heard it."
"Good! Sing!" Dabao clapped his hands and applauded. No one had ever sung to him before.
After Shen Nian coaxed Dabao, he recalled the sex scenes in romantic dramas he had watched before, and hummed with shame, "Ah... don't... ah... um..."
Dabao frowned and said, "This song is so strange."
Shen Nian said: "Just listen."
Dabao said unhappily: "Daughter-in-law, singing is not fun, I want to do magic! You teach me!"
Shen Nian demanded: "Yes, but you are not allowed to speak now and must be quiet."
Dabao didn't say anything anymore, and stared at Shen Nian singing a "song" that he didn't understand. At the same time, Li Cuihua, who was listening outside in the corner, listened to Shen Nian's coquettish voice, with a look of relief and joy on her face. Smiling, "Dabao has finally grown up! He is a man! Let me see who dares to laugh at my son in the future!"
Thinking that her silly son's bridal chamber was successful, Li Cuihua stopped sticking to the wall and went back to sleep with the old man with satisfaction.
Shen Nian shouted until his voice became hoarse. He thought it was almost done before he stopped and taught Dabao how to do magic tricks for a while.
Dabao got sleepy from playing and fell asleep soon after. How could he still remember the bridal chamber?
While he was asleep, Shen Nian quietly walked to the door and tried to open it, but couldn't.
She was so anxious that her head was sweating, and she tried various methods to no avail. Just when she was thinking about searching Dabao's body for the key, she suddenly heard a strange voice from a man.
"Daughter-in-law, do you want to run away?"
Shen Nian was immediately startled, and her heart almost jumped out of her chest. When she turned around, she saw Dabao had woken up at some point, walked behind her, and stared at her expressionlessly.
"Of course not!" Shen Nian panicked for a moment, then quickly calmed down and explained, "I was just checking to see if the door was strong, because I was afraid there would be wild beasts at night."
Dabao said a long "Oh", not sure if he believed it or not, "Mom said, I can't let you run away. If you run away, I won't have a wife."
Shen Nian quickly promised: "I won't run away. I like to play with Dabao! Does Dabao like to play with me?"
"I like it!" Dabao nodded innocently. With his big body, he looked a bit clumsy, like a big stupid bear with low IQ.
Shen Nian rolled his eyes, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, "Then let's play a new game, okay?"
"Okay!" Dabao said with great interest.
Shen Nian said: "This game is called hide and seek!"
Who knows that Dabao frowned when he heard this and said unwillingly: "Hide and seek is not fun! I won't play!"
Shen Nian immediately changed his explanation, "Then let's play police and catch thieves!"
Dabao was indeed interested and said happily: "Okay, I want to be a policeman!"
"Okay, then I'm a thief." Shen Nian said in a gentle and persuasive voice, "Open the door for me. I'm going to steal something. How can I be called a thief if I don't steal something?"
Dabao thought what she said made sense, so he took out the key from his pants and opened the door.
The moment she saw the door open, Shen Nian's heartbeat skipped a beat. She tried her best to stay calm and said to Dabao: "You close your eyes in the room and count to 100, then you can come and catch me, the thief. OK?"
"Okay." Dabao thought this game was very novel, so he followed it obediently.
Shen Nian didn't expect it to go so smoothly. He took a deep breath and walked quickly outside.
It was pitch dark at night, the wind blew through the treetops and made a rustling sound, and there were grass everywhere. It was inexplicably eerie and scary.
But no matter how terrible it is, it is better than staying here to give birth to a child for a fool!
Shen Nian mustered up her courage and ran outside quickly. She definitely didn't want to stay here! She didn't want to be a tool for giving birth!
Because she didn't know the road and couldn't see the direction clearly, Shen Nian chose a random direction and ran. She planned to find a place to hide herself first and wait until dawn before escaping from the mountain.
However, this idea was stillborn before it could be implemented.
"Who's not sleeping at night?" A male villager who got up to pee happened to bump into Shen Nian who was running away. He took a closer look and recognized that she was a woman even though he couldn't see her face clearly.
He understood immediately and shouted: "Whose wife has run away! Come quickly! Take him back! There is a wife who has run away!"
His loud voice instantly woke up the surrounding people. The villagers came out with torches to check and surrounded Shen Nian who was trying to escape.
"Look, whose daughter-in-law this is! She's so bold, she can run away at night without fear of being eaten by wolves!"
"Hey, isn't this the daughter-in-law that Dabao's family just bought for three thousand yuan? Dabao, come and take a look!"
"If Lao Wu hadn't found out, I'm afraid the Dabao family would have lost both its people and money!"
Almost all the wives in the whole village are bought by the villagers, so when it comes to the problem of their daughters-in-law escaping, they are quite united and help each other, and will never let these bought women escape!
When Li Cuihua heard that it was his daughter-in-law who ran away, she hurried over to take a look. Sure enough, she saw Shen Nian, raised her hand and gave her a hard slap, "Pah!"
"Little bitch, you actually dare to run! It seems that I am too kind to you! You should be tied up with a chain like a dog!"
Shen Nian, who had little strength to begin with, was knocked to the ground by this slap. His cheeks hurt, his ears were buzzing, and he couldn't hear any sound clearly.
Li Cuihua was still not relieved, so she kicked her hard a few more times, and then thanked Old Wu who found Shen Nian, "Old Wu, thank you so much, otherwise this bastard really ran away and blinded me for nothing. Three thousand yuan! Have two drinks with my old man tomorrow!"
Old Wu laughed and said: "It's easy to talk, we are all from the same village, we help each other!"
Others also said: "Dabao's mother, your daughter-in-law is very beautiful, so you have to keep a close eye on her! What a pity she ran away!"
"Look at me not taking care of her today! How shameless!" Li Cuihua was so angry that she directly grabbed Shen Nian's hair and dragged her back roughly, "You can give birth to a baby for my family! It's you, a little bitch." Blessings to the hooves!”
