the next day.
After Feng Ergou was executed for hooliganism, another major event occurred in the village.
Feng Ergou's wife ran away.
Just last night.
After Aunt Niu finished making breakfast, she knocked on the window as usual, preparing to bring the food in.
As a result, there was no sound from inside for a long time.
Although her son was gone, the woman was still pregnant with her eldest grandson, and she was afraid that something else might happen, as this would be the only heir of the Feng family.
She hurriedly went to her room and woke Feng Dafa up to get the key and open the door.
But once the door was opened, all that could be seen was a mess and a stench.
The wooden strips on the back window were pried open.
Clearly, that little slut escaped through the back window.
Without thinking about anything else, she quickly ran to find the brigade leader.
No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't let her eldest grandson wander outside.
...
When Feng Dabing brought his men in, they immediately went to this room to find out what was going on.
However, just one glance was enough to shock one's pupils.
Some people who had just finished breakfast came over to join in the fun and immediately leaned against the door frame, vomiting all over the place.
"Well, no offense, Aunt Niu, but your daughter-in-law lives in this house? You don't even let her know. She probably eats, drinks, and relieves herself all in this house, right?"
Don't even mention you locked him up for three days; if it were me, I couldn't stand it for more than a day and would have run away..."
Feng Dabing, with his hands behind his back, frowned deeply upon hearing this. "Don't talk nonsense!"
To be honest, he had been a brigade leader for most of his life, and even the elderly people who had been bedridden for years were not as slovenly as this room.
There was practically no place to put your feet.
Inside the house, all the bricks on the floor had been overturned, and the house was in complete disarray, not to mention the filth and stench that greeted anyone who entered.
Excrement, spoiled food, and the smell of feces and urine were mixed together.
Even those who only stood at the doorway felt as if they had entered a disaster site, where even breathing felt like a sin.
Anyone would think that a normal person could not possibly stay in such an environment for long.
Even Feng Dabing felt that it was a good deal for that man's wife to run away.
But he was, after all, the captain.
Even if you don't want to deal with this mess, you can't control it.
A short walk past the back window, the road to the left leads up the mountain, and the road to the right leads to the town.
If a woman runs up the mountain, even if she is lucky enough not to encounter jackals, wolves, tigers, or leopards, she will not survive for more than a few days.
But if she goes to town...
Then it won't be easy to find it again.
Feng Dabing immediately ordered his men to search along the mountain path.
They also sent a few educated youths to the town to see if there was any trace of Liu Meihua.
Then he turned to look at the distraught Aunt Niu and sighed inwardly.
“Sister-in-law, you’ve had it tough too. This can’t be blamed entirely on Liu Meihua. What’s done is done. Even if she didn’t run away, letting someone live in a house like that for a long time would drive them crazy…”
"I think you should clean up this room quickly. If the person is found, they'll have a place to stay. If the place is clean and the person is comfortable, they might not run away again."
Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Aunt Niu's eyes.
Quickly pulling herself together, she said, "I...I'll go get ready right away..."
...
Yan Xiao learned about this in the evening.
He spends all day in the fields.
It was at the dinner table that evening that Wen Qinghe told him the story vividly.
Surprise flashed in his eyes, and he kept gesturing for her to tell him what happened next.
Actually, he instinctively resisted the idea of Liu Meihua being involved with that woman.
But the little girl's clear eyes blinked, her pink lips opened and closed, and she made exaggerated expressions.
They're so cute it's almost unfair!
For Yan Xiao, who hadn't seen the little girl all day, this was much more interesting than the event itself.
These past two days, he's been working in a different location, which takes four hours to travel to and from the office, and he can't be with his wife all day.
During breaks from work, I'm always worried that she'll be scared or bored if she's home alone.
Where others couldn't even get a centimeter of ground down with several strokes of the rake, he managed to run over a hundred meters on the first day by exerting force in his hands.
With a new understanding of the geology beneath his feet, he was able to get the hang of things more easily.
The next two days were even easier and more manageable.
I'll try to come home earlier each day.
…
For Wen Qinghe...
She had a fairly fulfilling day.
I sleep until I naturally wake up in the morning, then take out some milk and bread from my storage space to make breakfast.
Then I went to the courtyard to feed the baby rabbits.
The little rabbit has now grown into a big rabbit.
They were all chubby.
After playing with the little rabbit for a while, I went back to my room to read and do practice problems.
Lunch was prepared by Yan Xiao early on and stored in her spatial storage.
After lunch, when I get tired of watching TV shows, I go back to my room for a nap.
Often, by the time Yan Xiao woke up from his nap, he would be back around the same time.
Therefore, the idea that someone is bored simply doesn't exist.
…
Liu Meihua's story caused quite a stir in the village for a while, but then nobody paid much attention to it anymore.
Before we knew it, the weather was gradually getting cooler.
Thanks to Yan Xiao's daily hard work, the wasteland halfway up the mountain has long been turned over.
He also got seeds from the team and planted potatoes.
Now that he no longer needs to clear land, Yan Xiao has more free time.
I like to snuggle up with my wife whenever I have free time.
Occasionally, we would read and study together.
Most of the time, because of the changing seasons, Yan Xiao uses the sewing machine at home to make new clothes for the little girl.
The wardrobe at home was too small; it couldn't fit the little girl's pretty dresses. So he went up the mountain and brought back some wood, then nailed it together to make a bigger one.
So much so that when you open the door to the room behind the main hall, you can see wardrobes covering three entire walls.
The closet was further divided into sections for the little girl's clothes for spring, autumn, summer, and winter.
The colors are bright and vibrant, and most of them are trendy styles that cannot be bought at the supply and marketing cooperative.
Anyone who saw this would be astonished.
Not only did Yan Xiao buy items from the south, but most of them were made by him after returning from the modern era. He combined the characteristics of the two eras, personally selected the softest materials, and used his self-taught clothing design skills to make them on his home sewing machine.
As for the results...
You can tell just by looking at the little girl's expression when she tries on her new clothes.
Her eyes and brows couldn't hide her amazement and joy.
You could tell she was very satisfied.
As for the clothes Wen Qinghe swept up from the modern shopping mall, apart from underwear, they were almost entirely useless.
