It must weigh at least ten kilograms, right?
If we make another thousand yuan, maybe we can add the daily necessities option tonight or tomorrow...
Shui Qing, who was in an extremely good mood, was about to suggest that she also pick mushrooms that afternoon when she saw a group of people walking towards her, supporting each other, who looked very familiar.
She squinted and stared intently.
"Mother, it's my eldest and second eldest sisters!" Fan Hu exclaimed joyfully.
With its short legs, it took a swift step and ran quickly along the ridge of the field.
Because of the distance, Shuiqing couldn't see the four children's expressions, but her intuition told her that it wasn't a good thing!
Putting aside Fan Jiang and Fan He, Yan Qiu and Xing Hui are so sensible that it's heartbreaking. Even though they know that mushrooms can be exchanged for money, they just can't bear to go home before lunchtime!
Thinking of this, she quickened her pace and ran towards her children.
"Mother~"
When the four children saw Shuiqing, the grievances they had been holding back suddenly burst forth, and they cried out with tears in their eyes.
Shuiqing finally saw the true state of the four children.
Their already tattered clothes were now covered in mud. Xinghui and Fanjiang, one holding the arm and the other limping, were helped by Yanqiu and Fanhe on either side as they walked.
The bamboo basket changed from round to flat, and there were only a few scattered mushrooms inside.
Yan Qiu still had several obvious red marks on her face!
Shui Qing took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and asked in a low voice, "Tell me, what happened?"
“Mom, we went to Zhushan early to pick mushrooms. We had already filled two baskets when Auntie arrived.”
"She said our uncle loves mushrooms, and she told us to pour the two baskets of mushrooms into her basket."
“When we refused, she called us heartless, unfilial, and ungrateful wretches, saying we were worse than outsiders in the village!”
"When her eldest sister blocked her from taking the bamboo basket, she reached out and hit her eldest sister. Then, when her second sister rushed forward, she cruelly pushed her second sister and made her roll down the hillside!"
He forcefully pushed my second sister down the steep slope. Luckily, she was very fortunate; otherwise, otherwise…
Shui Qing understood!
No wonder the children came back so early.
No wonder their clothes were covered in mud and they had wounds on their bodies.
No wonder the basket broke and the mushrooms disappeared!
Sun Jinhua is really something else; she even tries to snatch the mushrooms that her nephews and nieces painstakingly picked.
Filial piety?
It's ridiculous! They have their own sons and daughters, who are able-bodied and in their prime. Why would they expect their nephews and nieces to be filial to them?
"Come on, Mother will get justice for you!"
Yan Qiu opened her lips, worried that things would escalate, but thinking of her younger sister who had almost lost her life, she wished she could make a big scene!
The eldest aunt had been bullying them for a long time, but yesterday the mother stood up for herself, so they had to stand up for themselves too.
Weakness will only embolden others to bully you more!
Fan He's eyes lit up, and he suggested, "Mother, let's go home first, grab the kitchen knife and hoe, and then go."
Father went to the city and it will take at least an hour to get home. They are going to Aunt's house to demand an explanation, and they can't go without weapons.
Fan Jiang, who was a year older and much more mature, said, "I'll grab a kitchen knife and rush forward to demand justice for my second sister, no matter what."
"Mother, you're in charge of fanning the flames; eldest and second sisters, you're in charge of pulling me back. We're going to make our aunt not only return what she took, but also give some back!"
If he let his eldest and second eldest sisters quarrel with his aunt, they would inevitably suffer a bad reputation. He couldn't let his sisters be pointed at and gossiped about.
He was a boy, and people in the village and outsiders were much more tolerant of boys, and he didn't care about being pointed at or talked about!
