"Zhou Xiaohong and her son are definitely not good people. Look, Liu Cuifang was also plotted against. You are so pretty, shouldn't you be on guard?"
"You are prettier than Liu Cuifang, and you are richer than her."
I don’t know why, but Feng Shishi isn’t that happy when others praise her for her beauty.
When Lu Baiwei praised her, she felt as if her heart was filled with honey.
"You think I'm pretty, too?"
Feng Shishi touched her face and snorted arrogantly: "Even if you admit that I'm beautiful, I won't be your good friend."
Lu Baiwei: “…”
It turns out that the girl only heard this one sentence after listening for a long time.
Lu Baiwei felt helpless because she couldn't be led by such a useless teammate.
"You better be careful when you go to the next brigade. You are so beautiful, you need to find a companion for yourself..."
It would have been fine if Lu Baiwei didn't remind her, but as soon as she did, Feng Shishi always felt like someone was watching her from behind.
Two days later, she carried her things to the next-door Hongqi Brigade to attend the full-month banquet for Liu Cuifang's child. She felt uneasy all the way, as if someone was watching her from behind.
It’s okay in the Xiangyang Brigade section.
When we reached the junction of Xiangyang Brigade and Hongqi Brigade, the path extending forward had to pass through a col.
This place is next to a rice field, and there are usually people working in the fields.
I don’t know what happened this time. It was clearly the busy farming season, but I didn’t see anyone after walking for a while.
Thinking of Lu Baiwei's reminder, Feng Shishi got goose bumps all over her body, and the feeling of being watched in the dark became stronger and stronger.
"It's all Lu Baiwei's fault. She scares me all day long."
Feng Shishi pretended to squat down to wash her hands, then looked back suddenly. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but a black shadow flashed past the bushes and soon disappeared.
She stared at the trees for a long moment. The breeze blew through the woods, and the shadows of the trees flickered in the sunlight.
Nothing?
Don't scare yourself.
At most, next time I come to the Red Flag Brigade, I can find a companion, or choose a time when there are people working in the fields, so that I won’t be suspicious.
Feng Shishi shook her wet hands, rubbed them dry on her clothes, and continued walking forward.
She didn't know that the moment she stood up from the creek, the mottled sunlight shone on her through the trees, perfectly outlining her slim figure even though she was only wearing a homespun dress.
The way she shook her wet hands and used them to wipe her hair was as perfect as a painting.
The owner of the pair of eyes hidden in the bushes not far away swallowed hard at the sight of this scene, wishing he could turn into a wolf, pounce on her, and swallow her up with a whimper.
She really, really looks delicious!
Even from a distance, she seemed so fragrant and delicious that one wanted to devour her.
Feng Shishi squatted down and shook her head, staring at the woods for a while. She was worried about the dark shadow hiding in the woods, so she didn't dare to act rashly for the time being. She just watched her set foot on the road of the Red Flag Brigade and headed towards Zhao Yongsen's home in the distance.
Zhao Yongsen's family did not make Zhou Xiaohong's family happy because of the addition of a baby.
On the contrary, because the premature baby was born less than a month ago, he was always crying, which affected Zhao Yongsen's sleep. He was very irritable and was woken up in the middle of the night and kept getting up and yelling at Liu Cuifang.
Whenever the baby cried, Zhou Xiaohong was annoyed.
Even though she was clearly not her granddaughter, she still had to take care of Liu Cuifang during her confinement.
Zhou Xiaohong was still counting on Liu Cuifang to bring Zhao Yongsen back to the capital to eat commercial grain. With the birth of this child who had no blood relationship with the Zhao family, Zhou Xiaohong became more and more dissatisfied with Liu Cuifang.
"The sky is crying so hard, there is no sign of peace."
"Look at you, you are in confinement. I killed a chicken for you to eat, so why don't you produce milk?"
Zhou Xiaohong had to prepare food for the full-month banquet and run around to help Liu Cuifang take care of the child. She found herself complaining a lot.
"Other daughters-in-law drink a few bowls of chicken soup and feed their children and everything else."
"You're so good. I wasted a chicken and my child was crying with hunger all day long."
After scolding Liu Cuifang, Zhou Xiaohong started to scold the baby she gave birth to: "You useless girl, you have the nerve to cry?"
"You are not a man, why do you think you are so precious?"
"Your nose and eyes are so ugly, I don't know where you got it from..."
At this moment, relatives who were attending the full moon banquet were about to arrive. Zhou Xiaohong cooked rice soup and helped feed the baby. She kept saying that she didn't know who the child would take after. Liu Cuifang's face fell.
She suffered a lot of injustice.
The child who was born didn't look like Zhao Yongsen or her. Maybe she looked like her father?
Holding the baby in my arms all day long, I felt sick looking at her and often thought of the nightmare in the bushes next to the educated youth site.
A nightmare ruined her and forced her to marry Zhao Yongsen.
I was already in a bad mood, and Zhou Xiaohong kept nagging.
Liu Cuifang yelled, "That's enough. Are you done yet? You are the reason why I am like this."
"How could it be my fault? This child..."
Zhou Xiaohong blurted out that the child was not Zhao Yongsen's, and she still had to help take care of it.
She is feeling aggrieved!
Facing Liu Cuifang's frighteningly red eyes, Zhou Xiaohong thought that she had endured it for so long, all for the sake of her son Zhao Yongsen eating commercial grain in the future, so she might as well endure it a little longer.
She swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
"I'm just feeling sorry for the child because he has no milk to drink."
"Neither do I."
Liu Cuifang replied aggrievedly: "Just bear with it a little longer, the child will have milk powder soon."
"The baby is one month old today. Shishi wants to bring some milk powder to see the baby. I'll think of a way to ask her to ask Li Ruicai to send the milk powder to her."
Zhou Xiaohong was shocked. "That thing is so expensive. Is Feng Shishi's boyfriend willing to give it to your child to drink all the time?"
"This Feng Shishi is really stupid. If you say a few nice words to her, she will listen to you."
"His partner is really generous and generous."
"Milk powder is very expensive. I heard that it is sold in the county department store, but it requires special approval and a ticket to buy it."
Zhou Xiaohong felt relieved when she thought of Feng Shishi bringing large and small bags of things every time she came to see Liu Cuifang.
She taught Liu Cuifang: "When Feng Zhiqing comes, you have to comfort her, okay?"
"Otherwise, the child will have no milk to drink and will keep crying, disturbing Yongsen. You and he will have a bad relationship."
Muttering a few words quietly, Zhou Xiaohong went to the kitchen to busy herself.
Liu Cuifang sneered at her words and curled her lips in disdain.
Who cares about Zhao Yongsen?
That means there is no way now.
When the day comes that she can return to the city, she will leave the child to Zhao Yongsen and run away so that the vampire-like Zhou Xiaohong and Zhao Yongsen's family will never be able to find her again.
Liu Cuifang was annoyed by her baby's crying all day long and didn't get enough rest during the confinement period. Her face was pale and she looked listless.
This state of being on the verge of collapse improved a lot the moment he saw Feng Shishi.
"Fangfang, I'm here to see our daughter."
