"Hey, here they come!" Jiang Xuanfang turned around and looked in the direction of her fourth sister, and quickly responded loudly.
She didn't look at Shu Miao's reaction anymore and turned away.
The moment she turned around, Shu Miao, who had been keeping his head down and silent, suddenly raised his eyes and watched the familiar yet unfamiliar figure go away.
Shu Miao didn't come back to his senses until he could no longer see the man.
She shook her head, collected her wandering thoughts, and looked across the river.
The other side of the river is backed by mountains, so not only is the sunlight relatively weaker than here, but the fields are also mostly long and narrow.
The so-called canals are mainly built to prevent river water from backflowing during the flood season, and can also be used to drain rice fields.
Although the girl offered a seemingly good suggestion, out of caution, Shu Miao decided to ask Shu Zili before making the next decision.
After all, her reputation is not good. To put it bluntly, when she was weak and had a head injury, no one took the initiative to sympathize with her.
At this moment, a sister who feels sorry for her suddenly appears out of nowhere, and it is full of doubts no matter how you look at it.
Although she was just an orphan and had no benefits for others, there might be people with bad tempers who liked to see others make a fool of themselves and commit crimes, and would deliberately encourage them.
If she committed a major taboo in the team, although she would not be punished too severely because she was a child, it would still be very unprofitable to tie her up in the drying yard and whip her.
Compared to the team members who watched indifferently, she still trusted the Shu family more.
Just like what "Aunt" said to her two cousins, you can't write two "Shu" characters with one stroke, and the three of them are the last blood relatives of the Shu family.
No matter what internal rifts there are, to outsiders they are a family.
The Shu family was originally an outsider family, and without an adult male pillar, they were seen by outsiders as someone who could be bullied by anyone.
If it weren't for the two men from the Shu family, who drowned while saving the captain's youngest son, those black-hearted people in the team would have taken more than just small advantages.
Even so, the vegetables grown in the Shu family's private plot would from time to time be "borrowed" by others for various reasons.
Having learned his lesson, Li Qiao only dared to plant crops in his private plot and vegetables in the yard to minimize the chances of conflict.
But no one expected that as soon as Old Man Shu left, those scoundrels who had been ready to make a move dared to kick the door openly.
Thinking of this, Shu Miao couldn't help but admire the "auntie's" courage.
Even in this situation, she still resolutely raised the child alone.
At the same time, I became increasingly disgusted with such a messy team.
It was obvious that the Shu family did not live in a remote village. Although they did not live next to the brigade headquarters, the neighbors around them could still hear the noise if they shouted.
Just like that, these so-called neighbors turned a blind eye to the Shu family being harassed by the scoundrels. Their indifference was outrageous.
There is a reason why Shu Miao judged the customs of this brigade in this way.
If the relationship is not good or the relationship is average, then it would be fine if they just stand by and watch.
You have to know that the neighbors next to the Shu family had very good relationships with Li Qiao in the past, otherwise they would not be able to "borrow" things from the Shu family so frequently.
But they also turned a blind eye, which shows a big problem.
Apart from that, the most disgusting thing is the Wang family, which is located to the right rear of the Shu family's yard.
The only child in the Wang family was also one of the children rescued by the Shu brothers.
Not only did they ignore the favor, they also turned the tables and accused Li Qiao of seducing her man.
Li Qiao, who was already in the midst of a public opinion storm, was completely labeled as "restless".
This also made the women who were originally in cahoots with the captain and were preparing to put pressure on him to severely punish the hooligans start to have different ideas.
By the way, when Li Qiao was young, she was the most eye-catching person in the team. Even though her beauty had faded a little due to her age and hard work, she was still more eye-catching than the women who looked mostly ordinary.
Seeing Wang's daughter-in-law crying and snotting, describing the seduction incidents with details, most women became suspicious and stopped helping.
When public opinion is one-sided, the truth loses its meaning...
It’s no wonder that when Auntie was arguing with the Wang family some time ago, she cursed, “I should have made sure that your Wang family would be extinct!”
Thinking of this, Shu Miao sighed helplessly.
Of course, these were all pieced together by her based on the complaints from the "auntie" yesterday and what she had seen and heard over the past month.
It was at this moment that Shu Miao suddenly remembered what Sister Ling had said: when you are not strong enough but unable to break away from people or things that make you feel bad, reading is your only platform to a higher place.
By studying, you can go to bigger, better, and more civilized places and see different scenery!
At that time, she was still struggling to take care of herself, and she didn't understand what Sister Ling said. She only knew that studying was a good thing!
Now recalling this long-forgotten memory again, Shu Miao's mind became clear, and he suddenly realized that he had realized something!
Yes,
Isn’t the purpose of her busy life to live a better life?
If she continues to stay in such a backward little valley and muddle through, what's the difference between her and those children who are passively kept in welfare homes?
read!
She wants to study!
With a new goal in life, Shu Miao felt full of strength.
Next we have to consider the issue of leveraging.
After all, she is still young. If she doesn't seek help, the road ahead will only become more difficult.
After a moment's thought, the first person she thought of was "Auntie".
Especially at this moment, when the mother and son felt the most guilty towards their original bodies...
No matter what the result is, she has to try!
Even if the "auntie" is unwilling to send her to school, it doesn't matter. She can persuade her to take her to school independently and wait until she finds out how much it costs to go to school.
She could find a way to sell the food produced in the space and always raise enough money for school.
Anyway, she is an orphan, and if she really makes a fuss, "Auntie" doesn't have that much power to deal with her.
Anyway, she is determined to go to this school!
Shu Miao no longer hesitated, picked up the bucket and walked home.
The most urgent task now is to plant all the millet in the fields. Once the grain is ripe, even if she has a falling out with the Shu mother and son, she will have enough confidence to leave the Shu family and live on her own.

After a while, Shu Miao's figure appeared again by the space pond.
She picked out the live fish and shrimp and put them into the pond first, and then threw the little turtle into the pond.
As for the snails and clams left at the bottom of the bucket, she hesitated for a moment and decided not to put them into the pond.
The main concern is that this thing has a strong reproductive ability and may fill an entire pond. What should she do then?
Then there is the food source for the fry and small turtles, which needs to be planned carefully.
I will temporarily throw some riverside water plants for the next two days, and then consider whether there are more suitable ones.
