As soon as Ruan Qingling turned her head, she threw down the herbs in her hand and rushed over.
"Ya Ya, you can't eat it."
Just as she was about to bite down, Ruan Qingling snatched the snake away from her.
Ya Ya paused for a moment, and the next second, her eyes welled up with tears.
Ruan Qingling quickly said, "Baby, you can't eat this. We can't eat raw food."
She quickly picked up her daughter.
I'm packing up and getting ready to go home.
Ya Ya was being held in her mother's arms, but she still couldn't stop thinking about the snake on the ground.
Her little hands were still pointing at the snake on the ground; she wanted the rope!
Ruan Qingling felt dizzy.
My daughter is only concerned about a dead snake because she has no other toys!
Ruan Qingling thought about it and decided to find a way to get some toys for her daughter.
Ya Ya insisted on holding the snake, but Ruan Qingling told her otherwise.
"You can't have that anymore. If you still want it, Mommy won't hold you."
Ya Ya wanted the snake, and she also wanted her mother. In the end, she decided that she wanted her mother and the snake.
Ruan Qingling could only think of one solution: she picked a sweet potato leaf and wrapped it around the dead snake.
It was wrapped into a rice dumpling, tied with straw rope, and Ya Ya carried it in her hand.
It's not dirty or scary anymore.
Otherwise, she would hold Ya Ya, who was holding a dead snake in her hand and rubbing it against her arm...
This is really going to kill me.
The mother and daughter returned from the mountain.
Aunt Liu saw her and said, "Shi Ting's wife, you're finally back."
The task Song Shiting asked her to do was no good at all. She only had to meddle in other people's business because she had accepted a rabbit from Song Shiting.
Ruan Qingling was unaware of the custom of giving rabbits as gifts, and asked, "Aunt Liu, what's wrong?"
Aunt Liu said, "Today, your sister-in-law and your eldest son's two sons waited outside for a long time. I was afraid they would break your door lock again."
Ruan Qingling said, "I'd appreciate it if you could keep an eye on them for me, Aunt Liu. Just keep an eye on what they're doing while I'm not home."
Aunt Liu said, "I'm old, all I can do is take a look at things for you, there's really nothing else I can help you with."
Ruan Qingling smiled slightly: "It's very kind of you to do this, thank you."
Aunt Liu said, "If there's nothing else, just stay home with the children. The mountains aren't a safe place. If something happens to you outside, I won't be able to see it."
She didn't know what Ruan Qingling wanted those herbs for, or why she went to the mountains to find herbs every day.
Ruan Qingling's eyes flickered slightly as she said, "Auntie, I'm just going to the foot of the mountain to pick some herbs. Song Shiting has some deep scars on his shoulder, and I want to try to help fade them."
Aunt Liu seemed to have thought of something and said, "You mean his shoulders? Shi Ting has suffered too much."
“The father and mother don’t love him. They are all his children. How could they do this to a child? At that time, he was only eight years old. Just because of a little food, his mother picked up a pair of electric pliers that were burning in the fire and hit him on the shoulder. That child was stubborn and didn’t cry out once.”
Ruan Qingling was shocked!
She had assumed that the scar was something Song Shiting had made himself when he was a child, but she never expected it to be from Wang Guihua.
She asked, "Aunt Liu, have you always lived here?"
Aunt Liu sighed: "Your uncle and I are not capable, and our children are ordinary, unlike Shi Ting, who can go out and develop. Where would we get the money to build a house? I have lived here for forty years."
So, Aunt Liu witnessed Song Shiting's childhood here?
Ruan Qingling suddenly wanted to know about Song Shiting's childhood, so she asked, "Auntie, were you home alone at noon?"
Aunt Liu nodded.
Ruan Qingling said, "Let's team up. I happen to be with Yaya too. I'm good at making egg pancakes. Come and eat some."
Aunt Liu didn't refuse and said, "I'll cook a pot of sweet potato porridge and bring it over."
Ruan Qingling said, "Okay."
She went back to the yard and put Ya Ya inside the fence.
I started cooking for myself.
Inside the fence, there's a wooden figure that can be used to make a beggar's hat.
Once Ya Ya caught something and had something to play with, she forgot all about her snake.
Ruan Qingling made egg pancakes and stir-fried a dish.
In addition, Aunt Liu brought over some porridge.
It was resolved by noon.
While eating, she asked Aunt Liu about Song Shiting's childhood.
Upon further inquiry, it was discovered that Song Shiting had no childhood at all.
There are five siblings in the family.
Song Shiting is the third child in his family, with two older brothers and two younger sisters.
He was in the middle, and the least favored one.
He had to do all the chores that his two older brothers wouldn't do.
When it comes to eating, Song Shiting has to give food to her older brother and take care of her younger sister, so she often doesn't get to eat.
Aunt Liu sighed and said, "Fortunately, that child is smart. Every time he goes to the mountains, he always brings something back, from wild boar to mice and frogs, he doesn't discriminate."
Ruan Qingling suddenly understood why Song Shiting did everything at home.
That's because they were oppressed by their parents from a young age.
There was no choice.
So, he got used to doing it?
Including whether he can handle needles?
All these questions were answered by Aunt Liu.
Ruan Qingling felt even more strongly that it was no easy feat for Song Shiting to have survived until now.
No wonder he was estranged from his parents.
Wang Guihua is not worthy of being his mother.
However, Ruan Qingling suddenly paused.
Is this going to be like in the novel?
Is Song Shiting not Wang Guihua's biological son?
Otherwise, would Wang Guihua have treated Song Shiting this way?
It comes to mind whenever I think about it.
The facial features of the family members are all different.
Song Shijian had single eyelids and long, narrow eyes.
Song Meili and Song Meiling also look different.
The family members have several versions of their faces.
Song Meili's facial features are more similar to Wang Guihua's.
Song Shijian's facial features were similar to those of his father-in-law, Song Wanshoushan.
Song Meiling is different too; I don't know who she took after.
What does Song Lao Er look like?
She had never seen him before, but right now, Song Shiting was undoubtedly the most handsome.
Aunt Liu is full.
He let out a burp and said, "The pancakes you made are really delicious."
Ruan Qingling said with a smile, "I only learned this one skill at home before."
Aunt Liu nodded and said, "Girls should have some skills. They won't be at a disadvantage anywhere. My family's children only know how to use hoes. Yesterday, they went out to repair roads and ate communal meals. I'm quite relaxed at home."
Aunt Liu's life is very simple.
The family lived a simple but harmonious life.
Ruan Qingling roughly understood that all the money Song Shiting earned outside was being taken back by Wang Guihua.
She must keep an eye on that foolish man from now on, otherwise Wang Guihua will continue to swindle money under various pretexts.
Aunt Liu left, and Ruan Qingling looked at the dilapidated house, feeling more and more depressed.
If she had known all this, she wouldn't have let Song Shiting come back.
Let him go outside, away from this family of vampires.
From now on, birds will fly freely in the sky, and fish will swim freely in the vast sea.
Is it too late to notify Song Shiting now?
This dilapidated village, coupled with that group of outrageous people, really makes it impossible to live here...
