Erniu looked up at the sky. The sky was full of stars, twinkling and very beautiful.
After a while, Erniu finally spoke, "I don't know what I want to do. I just want to have a lot of money. Then my parents, my older sister, and my younger sisters will have enough money to do anything."
“I buy whatever I want.”
Song Qingyun chuckled, "This is a great ideal. I have money to spend. Lots and lots of money to spend."
Erniu laughed softly. She had thought more than once when she was in the old house that if she were rich, she would take her parents and sisters away from the old house and never be bullied again.
If the people in the old house still want to bully them, they will be killed with money.
There was a smile in Erniu's eyes. At that time, she thought that she could not leave the old house until she got married, but she did not expect that her parents would suddenly take them away.
Life is getting better and better. I can eat well and sleep well every day. I don’t have to do so much work or go to the fields.
This was something she had never dreamed of before.
"Erniu, if you want to make money, you have to study hard. Only when you know more will no one bully you for being illiterate and uneducated." Song Qingyun said in a gentle voice.
"Well, I will study hard, Mom." Erniu slightly tightened her grip on Song Qingyun's arm, "Mom, I never thought I could still go to school."
"Your parents were confused before and delayed you sisters. You and the eldest and third girls all started school late." Song Qingyun felt a little guilty.
"It's not too late, mother. Look at how many girls in the village can't go to school their entire lives." Erniu hurriedly comforted Song Qingyun. She could feel that since they left the old house, her parents had been trying hard to make up for them...
But, in fact, it is not the parents' fault. They are bullied by their grandparents and their uncles' families. They have no sons, so naturally they are bullied.
It's like this in the village. Those without sons are called "extinct families"...
The sisters are very lucky now, and I don’t know how many people envy them.
She felt that her parents were very good to her and her sisters, but they always felt it was not enough.
"Silly Erniu." Song Qingyun looked at Erniu gently.
Erniu shook Song Qingyun's arm and said, "Mom, don't call me stupid."
Erniu spoke in a coquettish tone, and her face was full of the coquettishness that only a little girl would have in front of her mother.
Seeing this, Song Qingyun's heart softened. She couldn't help but think of Erniu's previous life, where she was harmed by that little hooligan and never had a good day in her life.
Song Qingyun lowered his eyes, almost unable to hide his hatred.
"Erniu, let me tell you a story." Song Qingyun said.
"Okay!" Erniu responded immediately. This was the first time her mother told her a story alone. Although she was the older sister, she also hoped to have some time just for herself and her mother.
Song Qingyun thought for a moment and then said, "This is a story my mother heard from a neighbor aunt about a distant relative of hers."
"There was a girl who had a very close friend. They grew up in the same village and often went up the mountain together to pick wild vegetables, mushrooms, and grass for pigs."
"Girls and sisters will share their good things with each other and talk about everything."
"Later, something happened in the girl's family. She was extremely disappointed with her family and wanted to run away from home."
Erniu widened her eyes when she heard the word "run away from home". Running away from home was a very scary thing in her opinion.
"When the sisters heard that the girl was going to run away from home, they immediately said they wanted to go with her."
"The two girls packed their things and quietly left the house at night."
"The girl was originally dreaming of living away from home with her sisters, but she was pushed into the woods by her sisters, where her rogue brother was waiting."
"later……"
Song Qingyun paused.
Erniu's fingers tightened nervously. She didn't know why, but even though this was a story her mother told her, it made her feel a chill down her spine.
"Later, the girl had to marry her sister's brother. At first, the family coaxed her, but when they saw she wouldn't run away, their true colors showed. They started to treat the girl like a nobody, and bullying and beating her became commonplace."
"Later..." Song Qingyun's voice was choked.
Erniu held Song Qingyun's hand and asked, "Mom, are you okay?"
Song Qingyun calmed herself down and said, "Mom is fine. She just felt bad for that girl. Later, the girl set a fire and burned the whole family to death. She also died herself."
Erniu's eyes were sore and she didn't know why she felt so sorry for the girl.
"Mom, I feel sorry for that girl too."
Song Qingyun looked at her and said, "Erniu, what I want to tell you about this is that you should not trust anyone easily, even if it is a little sister who used to be very close to you."
"Our family is doing well now, and some people might be jealous or want to take advantage of us, and they might resort to dirty tricks."
"We should not have the intention to harm others, but we must be on guard against others."
"I remember, mother. Especially for little sisters like us who have brothers and sisters at home, we can't go out with them alone." Erniu said firmly.
"Not only that, but also my cousins. In short, we must be careful. Without the absolute ability to protect ourselves, we must be careful in doing anything." Song Qingyun gently rubbed Erniu's hair.
"Yes, mother, I will, and I will also remind my sisters to be careful. Our family is living so well now, we can't let anyone plot against us." Erniu said, patting her chest.
"It's really scary. There are so many bad guys."
As the mother and daughter were talking, Xia Weian came back.
Hearing footsteps, Erniu stood up.
"father?"
"It's me, Erniu."
Erniu ran over to open the door, "Dad, why are you back so late?"
"I went to see your elder sister, but I was a little late." Xia Weian responded with a smile and saw Song Qingyun leaning on the sofa, looking at her with his head tilted.
At this moment, Song Qingyun's hair was loose, and she looked so beautiful under the moonlight.
Xia Weian smiled foolishly, "Sister Yun, why did you come out?"
"I can't sleep, come out and get some fresh air." Song Qingyun wanted to stand up, Xia Weian hurried forward and stretched out his hand to help Song Qingyun up.
"Slow down."
"Um."
"Erniu, go back to sleep first." Xia Weian said softly.
"Okay, Dad." Erniu was about to ask how her elder sister was doing, but she saw that her father only had eyes for her mother...
She shut her mouth decisively and tiptoed back to her room.
Erniu was lying on the kang, still thinking about the story Song Qingyun told her.
The more I think about it, the more I feel I should be cautious when making friends.
She thought of her little sister Tuya. Tuya's brother Yaozu was just a little rascal. He was incompetent at everything he did and never left anything behind. When she and Tuya went up the mountain together, he had secretly followed them...
Later, when he met her father, he ran away.
Erniu shuddered inexplicably. She hadn't thought much about it before, but now she thought, Tuya might be like that girl's sister, wanting to...
Erniu instantly got goosebumps, which was terrifying when she thought about it.
From now on, she will stay away from Tuya.
Mom said something to them before, what was it called...
Yes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall...
