Huo Shenxiu nuzzled her nose lovingly, turned back to the village chief and said:
"I have no choice but to ask you villagers for help. Please ask the villagers to go up the mountain and clear the road up the mountain and tidy it up so that my wife can climb the mountain tomorrow morning."
"Of course, I won't keep you villagers busy."
"Anyone who goes up the mountain to clear the road will be given a reward."
The village chief woke up from his drowsiness: "How much remuneration will you give me?"
Su Mi exchanged glances with Huo Shenxiu and turned the phone screen around: "Anyone who goes up the mountain will pay this price."
The village chief was stunned for a moment.
Damn it, this is the annual income of an average villager!
Just clearing the mountain road overnight can make a year's money...
If you don’t earn the money delivered to your door, you will be struck by lightning!
Finally, I can lead my fellow villagers to get rich!
Having said that, just for a beautiful smile, I paid so much money.
There are many rich people, especially this year!
But yes, this young daughter-in-law is so beautiful, she looks a bit like a TV star!
No matter which man you marry, you should hold him in your hands, coax him and pamper him!
The village chief was overjoyed and said nothing:
"Okay! I'll notify the whole village immediately! Let's see who is willing to go up the mountain to clear the road!"
…
Half an hour later.
Except for the infants and young children who were babbling, almost everyone in the village turned out in full force to follow the village chief, carrying cleaning tools and energetically heading towards the mountain behind.
Most of the time, the whole family comes out.
After all, one more person means more money!
Su Mi stood in the deserted village and saw in the team the three members of the family who were looking after Aunt Shao, including the fat aunt.
Huo Shenxiu didn't waste much time and pulled Su Mi towards the end.
All three people in the family went out, the lights were dark and the door was locked.
Huo Shenxiu wanted to kick him away, but Su Mi held his wrist, shook her head, and then said silently to the door lock.
A small matter like opening a lock won't cost you too much.
The door lock is unlocked.
After the two entered, they soon found Aunt Shao huddled in a small, dirty room.
Without saying anything, Su Mi went over and hugged Aunt Shao: "Aunt Shao, I'll take you away."
When Aunt Shao saw it was Su Mi, her tense face relaxed and she didn't resist, letting the two of them lead her away.
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, the two drove away in separate cars.
It was already early in the morning when we returned to downtown Jingzhou.
Huo Shenxiu found a hotel with a nice environment and sent Aunt Shao to check in with Su Mi.
Tonight, I plan to let Aunt Shao stay here for the time being.
In the room, Su Mi let Aunt Shao lie on the bed, fed her hot tea, and comforted her a few times.
Seeing that her face improved, she said:
"Aunt Shao, you haven't answered the question I asked you in the nursing home just now. Can you tell me now why you abducted me and abandoned me?"
Aunt Shao held the tea cup and shook her head again.
After a long while, he looked at Su Mi, his eyes full of fear:
"...Because the young master is a monster. I'm afraid, I'm afraid she will hurt you. But...no one believes me."
Su Mi's heart moved.
Huo Shenxiu, who was standing behind him, also tightened his expression.
"Aunt Shao, please speak slowly. Don't be in a hurry."
Aunt Shao took a sip of tea and then said:
"...that year, your father passed away just after you were born. The whole clan was in chaos. Your mother was weak after childbirth and suffered a shock, so she couldn't take care of you, so I kept you by my side 24 hours a day.
Take care of her like your daughter."
"One day, I went to do laundry. When I came back, I saw the door of my room was ajar. When I walked over, I saw Mr. Lu...that was your brother, lying next to your crib..."
Huo Shenxiu's eyebrows twitched: "What is he doing?"
Aunt Shao trembled as soon as she recalled this incident. It seemed that she still hadn't recovered after more than twenty years. She looked at Su Mi:
"He is...kissing you. He is still saying a name in his mouth. It is definitely not 'nannan'. I vaguely heard him saying, 'I will protect you well in this life and will never let you be snatched away again...
...You are my person after all...' and other words..."
Huo Shenxiu's face fell.
Su Mi also felt a chill on her back: "The name my brother is calling is... Yin Yu."
Aunt Shao's face twitched, and then she nodded: "It seems to be these two words."
Su Mi took a deep breath and exchanged glances with Huo Shenxiu.
Aunt Shao continued:
"Your brother's look, actions, and words at that time were not what a four-year-old child could express at all... I felt very scared at the time, but I didn't think much about it. After all, some children have very strong imitation abilities. I comforted them
Maybe I just...watched some TV series and imitated the lines?"
"Another night, while I was sleeping, I touched the cradle next to me and saw that you were gone. I was so frightened that I quickly got up and looked for you... As a result, on the top floor of my house, I saw Mr. Lu holding you and sitting on it.
On the railing of the platform, he said to you: "When will you grow up... I've been waiting for a long time" and so on... He looked like an adult! It scared me to the point of being scared out of my mind.
"Then something happened that made me even more scared."
"One day, I took you out to bask in the sun and put you in the cradle. I was afraid that you would catch a cold, so I went in to get you a blanket. I left for less than half a minute, and when I came back, the big wolf dog raised by the janitor touched you.
Beside the cradle, before I can pounce on you
, I saw that your brother had already rushed over... He immediately hugged the wolf dog and threw him out together. After getting up, I saw him staring at the dog fiercely, hugging the wolf dog's neck, and pulling it out.
His neck was broken—"
Su Mi turned pale.
Aunt Shao was frightened:
"I have never seen a child with such fierce eyes... never."
"Later, he actually told your mother and grandma that the dog hit the wall by itself and broke its neck... When he spoke, he was innocent and innocent. He was completely different from when he broke the dog's neck."
"After these things, I became a little wary of Mr. Lu. I always felt that this kid... didn't look like a child at all. In addition, his attitude towards you was very weird. I even hugged you 24 hours a day and never left you.
Halfway through, every time I see Mr. Lu, I will try to avoid you being alone with him... I don’t know why, but I’m afraid that he’ll hurt you.”
"One day, he knocked on the door and wanted to see you. I used the excuse that you were taking a nap. He noticed my protection for you and said coldly to me, I'm just a servant, don't meddle in other people's business. No matter what you see or hear,
Whatever he says is none of my business. The tone of his voice still makes me shudder... How should I put it? Although I am an adult, I feel like a child of several years old in front of him... He
He is my elder..."
"Besides, as soon as he said those words, I knew that there was indeed something wrong with him! I wasn't overly suspicious of him. This kid is really a bit weird!"
"I went to tell your mother and grandma that there was something wrong with Mr. Lu, but your mother was mentally stimulated at the time and couldn't listen at all. Your grandma also hated you as a nemesis at that time, so she was even more lazy to listen.
"
"When the lawyer learned that I had complained, he actually came to me directly and asked me to resign voluntarily, otherwise he would find a way to get me fired, which would be even more embarrassing... These words and thoughts cannot be said by a four-year-old child.
You can say that, I knew at that time that he must be a monster!"
