"Bao'er, stop poking our old hen," Zhao Zhao said after helping Jiang Fengxia sweep the yard. She noticed her sister was teasing the chickens and ducks again. "You've almost plucked all her feathers off!"
"Woof!" Heiwa echoed. The master was at the age when people hated dogs, and he was so annoyed by the dog.
Since the suspension of classes, Fu Baoer has never left the house and has been "idling" around the village every day. She has even pulled the necks and plucked the feathers of all the geese in the village.
"Zhao Zhao, why don't you take them to collect firewood?" Jiang Fengxia leaned forward. "If your sister keeps doing nothing, she'll tear the house apart."
"I agree!" Fu Baoer did a backflip and jumped down from the top of the chicken coop. "Hurry up! If you're too late, someone else will take them away!"
Jiang Fengxia casually picked up a corn husk drying on the windowsill and threw it over. "You little bastard! How dare you jump from such a high place!"
Fu Baoer chuckled and steadily caught grandma's "weapon", "Grandma, this is called skill and courage!"
Jiang Fengxia stretched out her finger and pointed at her granddaughter, "You!" She was helpless with this granddaughter, she could do everything and understood everything. In her own words, she was proficient in all kinds of skills.
The rake used by Fubaoer and his friends was a modified one by Fumanshan. It was shorter and just right for children to use. When they arrived at the place, there were already several children there.
"Cheng Jie!" Fu Baoer saw an acquaintance and rushed over in two steps. "What are you doing?"
Cheng Jie was squatting behind the small mound, feeling very nervous. He was frightened by Fu Baoer's cry and couldn't support his body. He lay on the ground, "Shh, come here quickly, little sister, there's something exciting going on down there."
Fu Baoer's eyes lit up. Is this boring life finally getting some spice?
At this time, they were at a river ridge that was higher than the ground. The terrain was high and they could see the small woods below. Fu Baoer took a closer look and saw that it was an old acquaintance.
Chen Suiyi held a burnt wooden stick in his hand and looked at the girl opposite him who was about his age with a bad look, "What do you want?"
"These old customs are not allowed now," Sun Danniu pointed at the pile of burnt ashes on the ground. "If people knew you were worshipping here, guess what would happen."
Shen Suizhi's expression was indifferent. "Who said I was worshipping? I was just warming myself by the fire because I was cold."
Today is the anniversary of his parents' death, but he couldn't get any paper money or anything like that, so he could only burn some dead leaves, and now they are all out.
Sun Danniu's eyes darkened. "So what? I heard everything. You were worshipping your parents. Now I can report you without any evidence. I just need to tell the team and you and your grandfather will be taken away for ideological education."
"Then what do you want?" Shen Suizhi didn't understand what the girl in front of him wanted. He and his grandfather were alone, so what could be worthy of threat?
Even though the boy in front of her was in such a miserable state, he did not flinch at all. Sun Danniu was a little envious. Although she was kept by Li Ying and Fu Tianming, the price was endless work and not enough food to eat. That day she also heard Zhao Li from next door giving Li Ying advice that when she grew up, she could get married and receive a dowry.
In addition, because Zhou Xueyan happened to commit a crime during this turmoil, her crime was made public to several nearby communes. Not only was she shot in the end, but Sun Danniu was also criticized every day. Some people even came from the next village to scold her and spit at her.
She doesn't want to live like this.
"I heard it all that day. You and your grandfather said in the house that you would leave here one day." Sun Danniu lowered her voice, but was extremely firm.
Shen Sui's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect that someone would eavesdrop on their conversation. His grandfather had said that day that when he left the capital, a close friend had left him a message.
The storm will surely pass.
Shen Suizhi understood that their family was a victim of the game, but he and his grandfather did not dare to hold too much hope. No one could predict what would happen in the future. He just didn't expect that this person heard it and seemed to understand it.
"I'm sorry I can't help you. If you had heard that day, you would have understood that we are also helpless and living on thin ice."
At this time, Sun Danniu devoted three-quarters of her attention to thinking about how nicely the boy spoke, and how she couldn't understand the words he used. How great it would be if she could go to school, study, and leave here one day?
Fu Baoer and the others who were far away could still hear roughly what was said at the beginning, but the voices of the two people at the end became lower and lower, and they could not hear anything at all.
"Tell me, are these two people dating?"
Fu Baoer knocked Erzhuzi on the head and said, "Bullshit, they are only ten years old! Don't use your dirty thoughts to judge others!"
"That's right," Cheng Jie unconditionally supported his younger sister. "If we want to know what they are doing, why don't we just go and ask them?"
Fu Baoer agreed. She needed to remind Shen Suizhi that she didn't dare to make close friends with Sun Danniu!
"Hey! The two guys on the opposite side!" Fu Baoer stood up and made a pistol gesture, "Raise your hands!"
Shen Suizhi and Sun Danniu turned around at the same time.
It's Fu Baoer again. Sun Danniu feels that this person is really haunting her. No matter what she does, she can see the other person's figure. He is just like a shadow in Qingshan Village, following her wherever she goes!
Shen then became much happier. In his heart, all the people in the Fu family were good people and they were all one family.
"Sister Bao'er, why are you here?" Shen Suizhi walked over and caught Fu Bao'er who was sliding down the slope. "It's very dangerous, slow down!"
"Sun Da Niu! Why are you hanging out with the 'walking group'? Are you... Ouch!"
Before Erzhuzi could finish his words, Fubaoer slapped him on the head, "Shut up! The captain and the secretary said, don't keep talking about this faction and that faction! We want to help them, don't you understand?"
"......Okay, I was wrong." Erzhuzi rubbed his head, feeling aggrieved, but he didn't dare to offend this bully in the village. Every time someone had a conflict with Fubaoer, it was always someone else who got scolded in the end, definitely not her.
Shen Suizhi was amused by these children. Qingshan Village was different from what he had imagined. He thought it would be more difficult to survive here than in the city. However, apart from doing some work every day and receiving ideological education, they were the same as the villagers in other aspects. No one would throw stones at them at will. The people here were very nice, simple and kind.
Fu Baoer and Sun Danniu met each other's eyes, and sparks flew between them. Fu Baoer always believed that Sun Jiefang's death was closely related to the young girl in front of him, while Sun Danniu always regarded Fu Baoer as the "enemy who murdered her mother."
The atmosphere in the grove suddenly became solemn.
Sun Danniu was the first to look away. She was not a talkative person to begin with, and now she said nothing and walked home with her head down.
Most of the kids in the village don't like to play with her.
"Sun Da Niu's eyes are always so creepy when she looks at people," Cheng Ru rubbed his arms. "Chen Suizhi, what on earth is she telling you? She never talks to anyone normally."
Shen Suiyi watched Sun Danniu's thin figure leave. He had a hunch that this person would not give up. She might be placing her only bet on the two of them, grandfather and granddaughter.
