Qiao Wanyue came out of the space and looked out the window. Lu Rong was no longer in the courtyard, and even the mess on the ground had been cleaned up. The doors and windows were tightly closed.
Lu Rong should go to sleep.
Qiao Wanyue also fell asleep peacefully.
Lu Rong exited through the back door of the Lu family home.
The Lu family's house was in the middle of Xiahe Village. Behind the courtyard were fields of crops, all planted with corn as tall as a person. In the darkness of night, it was impossible to see anyone wandering around unless you looked closely.
thatched hut
Lu Xingxing washed her daughter's hands and feet clean. Panpan was five years old and had never worn new clothes. Even the mentally challenged daughter of the Geng family had a new set of clothes every year. Only her Panpan wore clothes that she had altered from her own.
Aunt Lu was indeed thinking of her daughter's best interests. Everything she had taken from the Geng family was something the daughter could use: clean little clothes, a red hair tie. Lu Xingxing changed her daughter into clean clothes and combed her hair.
The little girl was thin and pale from hunger, but her face was beaming with a big smile.
"Mom, are we not going back?"
Lu Xingxing splashed the bathwater out, looked around warily, and made sure there was nothing unusual in the surroundings.
Her gaze fell on the thatched hut across the road from hers. They had made such a commotion today, and the old man next door hadn't come out. Could he be dead?
The evils of the past can last for a thousand years.
How could he die so easily?
Lu Xingxing narrowed her eyes, a cunning glint in them.
She closed the door, and the little girl sat obediently on the stool, watching her.
Lu Xingxing felt a tenderness in her heart.
If it weren't for Panpan, she would have given up long ago.
"Panpan, do you want to go to school?"
Children in the village are sent to the village primary school for their first education at the age of four. Her son, Panpan, is almost five years old and doesn't know a single word.
Panpan blinked. "Mommy, can I go to school?"
Lu Xingxing hugged her daughter and said, "Of course! I'll go see your uncle tomorrow and ask if your little brother Xiaohui is in school. Would you two like to go together?"
"Will she bully me?" Panpan bit her lip. She didn't like children; they always beat her up.
Lu Xingxing almost burst into tears. "No, your eldest uncle is a good person, and your eldest aunt and second aunt are both good people. Your little brother Xiaohui will like you and protect you too."
Panpan blinked. "I also like my eldest uncle and aunt, and my second aunt. They give me good food and don't hit me."
Children's world is so innocent; as long as they are given good food and are not punished, they are considered good people.
The mother and daughter cuddled for a while. Panpan really wished for her current life, where her grandmother wouldn't hit people, her uncles wouldn't bully her mother at night, and her father wouldn't poop on her mother's head.
She was afraid that this kind of life would be gone if she slept. Lu Xingxing held her for a long time, and Panpan was reluctant to fall asleep.
"Panpan," Lu Xingxing called out tentatively.
Panpan subconsciously closed her eyes tightly. In the past, her mother would always make sure she was asleep before her uncle would enter her mother's room. She knew that her mother wanted her to be asleep.
She always pretended not to know.
But now—
She didn't need to pretend. She was about to open her eyes and tell her mother that she hadn't fallen asleep, but as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw her mother with a black cloth over her head, tiptoeing out. Panpan rolled over and followed the man in black.
Yang Lin tossed and turned in bed, his whole body aching, the sound of bones cracking filling the air. He couldn't bear the pain any longer. He reached for a few painkillers that Old Lady Yang had given him, put them in his mouth, and tried to get some water.
As a result, he had no strength at all, so he could only swallow his saliva and swallow the medicine while his mouth was moist. The medicine entered his abdominal cavity with the saliva.
for a long time--
The pain in his body lessened a bit, and he sat up, leaning against the wall. His body felt heavy, and even a slight movement caused him to break out in a sweat.
He leaned against the wall. The noise was less intense at night. Someone had moved in next door. Just thinking about the people next door made Yang Lin grit his teeth in hatred.
Lu Xingxing is just like his mother, ungrateful and treacherous.
