Chapter 231: A grudge never lasts overnight

"Da da da..." Su Ying rode a horse and took Atang and Xiaotao to Heifeng Township.

Time is tight for this matter, so I'm asking Shopkeeper Zhu for help to see if I can get it. I'm not sure if he can make it in time.

Taking Atang along was because she had to rely on her to control the horse. When Xiaotao saw that her sister took Atang away but not her, she burst into tears.

Seeing this, Su Ying felt soft-hearted and also got on the horse.

Zhaoyan and Bingyan also wanted to ride on horses and follow, but Su Ying didn't let them because she couldn't take care of them all.

Finally, I promised my two cousins ​​that I would make them something delicious when I came back, and only then did they let me go.

The three sisters rode their horses along the village road all the way to the official road, and then to Heifeng Township.

After the busy farming season, Heifeng Township is busy again. Although today is not a market day, some people still go to the grocery store to sell vermicelli and honey.

Horses are rare in Heifeng Township. When the three sisters rode over so fast, people looked at them from afar with envy in their eyes.

"Hey, Yu Jiao Niang, I want to buy two pounds of meat!", "Yu Jiao Niang, cut me three pounds!"

Yu Jiaoniang's meat stall is doing as good business as ever.

The lives of the people in Wu County are gradually getting better, especially in Heifeng Township, which has Huanggou Village and Jinfengzhai, and is richer than other townships.

Life became better and more people could afford to sell meat. Yu Jiao Niang would sell meat even if it wasn't market day.

"Sister, business is good!" Su Ying shouted immediately.

"Oh! It's you. I haven't seen you for a while. Have you made a fortune? Haha, do you want to give me some meat?" asked Yu Jiaoniang.

"I'll go to the grocery store first and come back to see you later." Su Ying said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll keep it for you." Yu Jiaoniang said generously.

"Thank you, sister!" Su Ying thanked her.

"Boss, you accept other people's vermicelli, why don't you accept mine?" In front of the grocery store, a woman held on to the shopkeeper, Xiao Zhu, and refused to let go.

"Why? Don't you know it yourself?" Shopkeeper Xiao Zhu pestered him impatiently.

Other people's vermicelli are dried, but this woman is so cunning that she sells the vermicelli without drying it, thinking others are fools!

"Tell me, what's wrong with my vermicelli? Look, look!" The woman refused to give in and insisted that the shopkeeper Xiao Zhu take it.

"You can buy it, but I'll only charge you twelve taels per pound!" Shopkeeper Xiao Zhu had no choice but to give in.

"Why! You profiteer!" the woman cursed.

"You are such an unreasonable woman. You let me take advantage of you! Do you think my grocery store is a charity?

"Go away! I don't want it, go sell it somewhere else!" Shopkeeper Xiao Zhu chased the man away.

"Oh, Miss Su is here!" When the shopkeeper Xiao Zhu saw Su Ying, he immediately came forward with a smile.

The woman turned around when she heard that and saw Su Ying riding a horse. Her eyes widened with jealousy and anger.

When did the Su family have the money to buy a horse? What qualifications do they have?

"Shopkeeper Xiao Zhu is busy!" Su Ying ignored Xiao Qinshi, got off the horse, and picked up Xiao Tao and Atang.

"Miss Su is so busy that she hasn't come to our store for a visit for so long!" Shopkeeper Xiao Zhu said attentively.

Their family relied on Su Ying for their prosperity, and when they saw the noble person, they were happy and smiled sincerely.

A few people walked into the store chatting and laughing. The store was fully open, and the variety of goods was much richer than before. There were also a few shops next to it, selling cloth and other things.

The shop is bright and popular. Villagers come here to sell vermicelli and honey, and also buy some daily necessities. The business is busy every day.

The store has hired several employees, unlike last year when the owner Zhu and his family were the only ones running the dying store.

Old Mo from the county main store and Manager Liu from the state capital took the lead and followed Hu Erlang to work day and night outside.

At the beginning of the year, Shopkeeper Zhu was transferred by Mrs. Hu to the top of the main store in the county town, and Shopkeeper Xiao Zhu was in charge here.

"Mother!" Su He pulled Xiao Qin, his face twisted and full of hatred.

My mother and I were living a miserable life, but they were enjoying themselves, riding on tall horses!

Su He became deaf and had to stay in bed for a long time to recuperate from the ten strokes of the cane.

Fortunately, I was deaf and couldn't hear Li's curse.

Xiao Qinshi smiled every day and worked tirelessly, which ensured that Su He could recover safely.

"Let's go!" Xiao Qin pulled Su He.

She limped towards Nangou Village, her belly bulging noticeably under her thin, ragged clothes.

He is skinny and his belly is particularly prominent.

The last time, he was hit by Feng Dazhuang with a stick, his calf was broken, and Feng Dazhuang dragged him back and threw him on the bed.

Regardless of the pain, he tormented Xiao Qin so much that she screamed like a ghost and howled like a wolf, never daring to wail again.

Su He, who was recuperating in the next room, heard nothing and slept soundly until dark. When his stomach growled with hunger, he got up and asked Xiao Qin for food.

When she pushed the door open and saw the unspeakable scene, she was so frightened that she quickly stepped back and didn't notice that her mother was about to die.

Feng Dazhuang's interest was interrupted, and he left Xiao Qinshi and fell asleep.

The next day, Xiao Qin developed a high fever, which was very severe.

Li picked a handful of grass and boiled it into water. After drinking it, little Qin vomited and kept vomiting.

For two days in a row, he vomited up the medicine and porridge he drank, and became extremely thin.

Feng Dazhuang didn't bother to care and just buried him in the mountains after he died.

Li, on the other hand, was more thoughtful and asked a doctor from the town to take the patient's pulse.

She said she was pregnant, but the infection from her leg injury caused a high fever. If the fever didn't go away, she would be pregnant.

So Feng Dazhuang and his mother spent a lot of money to buy some medicine and forced Xiao Qin to drink it.

I drank and vomited, and vomited and drank again, repeating this for several days, and finally the fever subsided.

As for his leg injury, he applied some herbs according to the doctor's prescription and stayed in bed for about a month. When he got out of bed again, he limped and was completely disabled.

Because she was pregnant, Li no longer asked Xiao Qin to fetch water, but asked Su He to do it instead.

Su He refused, and was beaten by Li with a whip. She jumped three feet high. She suffered physical pain every time, but she could not avoid fetching water.

Su He's waist was damaged after being beaten with ten boards and could not bear the heavy pressure. He was in so much pain that he couldn't sleep all night and felt like his waist was going to break.

I want to escape from this damn place. Li is watching me during the day and wild beasts are lurking around at night.

When will this hell ever end? Su He is going crazy.

Today, I saw the three sisters Su Ying wearing new clothes and riding horses leisurely strolling down the street. Su He wanted to stab a few of them to death with a knife, saying, "You are so arrogant!"

Su He did not leave. He never held grudges overnight. If he was unhappy, he would take revenge on the spot.

If you can’t get people, Mr. Ma can do it!

Su He looked at the horse tied at the door of the store, his eyes rolling, and soon he had an idea.

Untie the reins, let the horses run, and see how you can get back? Hahaha!

"Neigh, neigh!" As soon as you get close, the horse will neigh to resist the stranger from getting close.

"I'm here to save you!" Su He approached slowly, looking at the horse's hooves vigilantly, afraid of being kicked.

The horse seemed to understand and stopped moving, looking at Su He quietly.

Su He reached out to the hitching stone and finally untied the reins, "Go, you're free!"

"Hiss..." The horse raised its head and neighed loudly, digging the ground with its front hooves.

Everyone looked over, and Su He quickly hid himself, pretending that it had nothing to do with him.

"What's wrong with this horse?" Everyone watched from afar, not daring to get close.

The people riding horses here are not ordinary people. The poor people have never ridden a horse and don’t know how to control it. They can only watch the horses go crazy for no reason and neigh incessantly.

Atang ran out and touched the horse's head, and the horse calmed down instantly.

"Wow, such a young girl can actually ride a horse! Awesome!" everyone exclaimed.

Atang leaned close to the horse and whispered, patted the horse's head, then went back to the store. Before entering the store, he glanced at Su He's hiding place.
