Chapter 120: Brave Dog, Not Afraid of Difficulties

Su Mei didn't expect that Huo Jianguo went out as soon as he entered the door. He was going to clean the chicken shit in the yard. He must have noticed the helplessness she showed when she looked at the chicken shit all over the ground, right?

Although it was just a small matter, the fact that Huo Jianguo took it to heart made Su Mei feel warm in her heart.

She lay on the bed for a while. She was obviously very tired, but she couldn't fall asleep.

There were waves of piercing pain in my feet.

After sitting up and taking off her socks, Su Mei discovered that her chubby little feet were covered with blisters.

During this period, Su Mei drank Chinese medicine and took medicinal baths every day, which really made her skin too fragile.

After walking on the mountain road for a whole day, her feet were so worn out that it was unbearable to look at.

After sweeping the floor, Huo Jianguo saw Su Mei's miserable feet as soon as he entered the room. He took a look and then retreated without saying a word.

Not long after, he came back in with a basin of steaming water in his hand.

Carrying the water, he walked to the bedside and took Su Mei's feet without saying a word. When Su Mei was about to ask him what he was doing, he had already put the feet into the hot water of the adjusted temperature.

The pair of big hands also reached into the water, using light and heavy massage techniques, coupled with just the right water temperature, which made Su Mei scream out in comfort in an instant.

"Ah~ah~ah~ah......." After realizing how evocative the sound she made was, Su Mei covered her mouth in shock and whispered:

"I didn't mean to scream~ah~........Huo Jianguo, mom is still at home, you did it on purpose!"

After saying this, Su Mei quickly covered her mouth tightly, fearing that she would make any inappropriate noises.

Although the scream was inappropriate, Su Mei didn't want Huo Jianguo to stop. She didn't know what his technique was, but it made the soles of her feet feel particularly comfortable.

Huo Jianguo pinched Su Mei's feet expressionlessly, and the corners of his lips secretly curved at an angle that Su Mei couldn't see.

Huo Jianguo didn't pick up Su Mei's feet until the water temperature gradually cooled down. He took an old piece of clothing to wipe the water stains on her feet, then reached out and pulled out the quilt to cover her legs, and then said:

"You should be feeling better now, get some sleep!"

After saying that, Huo Jianguo sat on the bed, took off his socks, and washed his feet with the water that Su Mei had used to soak his feet.

After washing, he went out to pour out the water, went into the house, climbed onto the bed, and lay down silently beside Su Mei.

This bed was nothing like the one they had in the military area. It was just a small wooden bed. When Huo Jianguo lay down on it, the bed creaked, and a strong masculine scent instantly enveloped Su Mei's whole body.

Although separated by the quilt, she could still feel the warmth of Huo Jianguo's body. Looking at his tall figure sleeping with his back to her, Su Mei's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

She thought, maybe, she was a little moved.

Just a little bit!

........

Two hours later, there was a knock on the door and Huo Jianguo and Su Mei climbed out of bed.

"Uncle San, Aunt San, get up and eat!" A timid voice came from the door. After the little girl called Huo Jianguo and Su Mei, she turned around and ran away.

According to the original owner's memory, Su Mei suddenly remembered that this timid voice came from Huo Qiu, the daughter of the eldest brother of the Huo family.

In the entire Huo family, the person who suffered the most from the original owner was the young Huo Qiu.

Three years ago, when Huo Qiu was three years old, he was eating candied haws and was seen by the original owner, who snatched the candied haws from Huo Qiu and ran away.

The original owner ran so fast that he didn't notice Huo Qiu, with his short legs, fell into the ditch at the door.

By the time Liu Cuiyun found Huo Qiu in the stinky ditch, Huo Qiu was already unconscious and his face was pale.

Although the Huo family eventually called Su Xuanju to save Huo Qiu's life, Huo Qiu developed a chronic illness from then on and became sick at any time.

For this reason, Li Shufen, the eldest sister-in-law of the Huo family, hated Su Mei from then on, kept a close eye on Huo Qiu, and would never allow Su Mei to get close to Huo Qiu again.

Thinking about what the original owner had done, Su Mei could only say in her heart that it was a sin.

I don’t know what happened today, but Li Shufen actually allowed Huo Qiu to come over and call her and Huo Jianguo to get up and eat.

Just when Su Mei was confused, Huo Qiu's crying came from the yard. Li Shufen hit Huo Qiu's butt with a stick and scolded him:

"You bastard, you don't want to live anymore, right? I told you to stay away from her, but why don't you learn your lesson? Who told you to call her for dinner?"

"Mom, I was wrong, I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again. It was grandma who asked me to shout, Mom, please don't hit me!" Huo Qiu cried heartbreakingly.

At this time, Liu Cuiyun's voice also rang out:

"Shufen, why did you hit the child? I asked her to call Jianguo and his wife. Can the family bear a grudge for a lifetime? With Jianguo around, nothing can happen. Do you have to do this?"

"Of course." Li Shufen started crying as she spoke: "Mom, you know Qiuqiu was almost killed by her!

I know Jianguo has made great contributions to this family, so we can't do anything to his wife, but we can't afford to offend her, but we can't avoid her, so why do you send Qiuqiu to her side? "

The mother and daughter cried together.

At this time, Huo Jianjun, the eldest brother of the Huo family, entered the yard carrying two pieces of pork. He yelled at Li Shufen, "Enough, stop howling. My third brother only comes back once a year. It's not easy for him out there. Don't make him unhappy."

"Shufen, I was wrong, isn't it enough that I was wrong? Stop crying. It's New Year's Day, why are you doing this?" Seeing Li Shufen crying so hard, Liu Cuiyun also began to apologize to Li Shufen.

The noise in the yard gradually died down.

Su Mei, who heard the entire quarrel in the house, felt like her head was about to explode.

The drama that the original owner was performing in her hometown was even more difficult than the one in the military compound. She looked at her shoes on the ground and for a moment she didn't have the courage to get out of bed.

"It's okay." Huo Jianguo noticed Su Mei's embarrassment, patted Su Mei on the head and said:

"My sister-in-law is a very good person. Although you have let Huo Qiu down, as long as you treat Huo Qiu sincerely in the future, my sister-in-law will notice your changes.

I bought some supplements for Huo Qiu to replenish her body. You can give them to her later and tell her that you bought them. Take your time, and your sister-in-law will forgive you. "

"How is it possible!" Su Mei shook her head pessimistically: "With such a huge hatred, if it were me, I would have wanted to kill her. How could she possibly forgive me?

Whenever I think about what I did in the past, I feel so embarrassed. How can I have the nerve to eat at the same table with my sister-in-law?"

Having said that, Su Mei still got out of bed.

Suddenly I realized that the gift from God is not easy to obtain.

Although she got a chance to be reborn, she was also faced with endless messes to clean up. She managed to regain a little dignity in the military area, but once she returned to the village, she was back to the time before liberation.

What can I do? I can only face the challenge head on.

Su Mei walked outside while encouraging herself:

【Brave dogs are not afraid of difficulties. 】
