She threw a small pill on the ground. The big yellow dog ran over and put the pill into its mouth. Maybe it knew that this was a good thing. After eating it, its tail wagged even more happily.
Liu Liang pushed the wheelchair into the room, supported herself with both hands, and sat back on the kang. There was no other way. Although she only broke one leg, both legs were in pain and she couldn't even stand up. It might take some time for her to adapt.
She touched her leg and found it wasn't so painful anymore. It would be the fifteenth day of the lunar year in a few days. She would go to the master to take care of it and she would be well again when she came back.
She was sitting here in a daze with nothing to do, but she didn't know that the door of Aunt Zhou's house was almost surrounded by a crowd of people. It turned out that everyone in the village had come just to see what the fairy-like woman rescued by the Zhou family looked like and whether she was really like a fairy.
However, the door of Zhou's house was never open, which made them wait anxiously. As soon as the door was opened, Aunt Zhou had not come out yet, but someone squeezed her in again. Some of them were brave and shameless, and they rushed in recklessly. In addition to watching the fun, families with old bachelors dreamed of finding a wife for their children.
These people were like robbers, and Aunt Zhou was almost knocked to the ground by the force.
No one knew who started it. In the past, they only dared to go in secretly, but now they broke in openly. Aunt Zhou from the school followed them with a broom.
But when they arrived, they found no one there.
"Aunt Zhou, where is this person?"
Naturally, no one would be willing to accept it if they didn't see the person, especially those who wanted to take advantage of the situation.
"If I were him, I would also find a place to live alone, otherwise I would be torn into pieces by you guys."
The others listened with embarrassed looks on their faces.
Since there was no one at the Zhou family, they must have gone to the Huang family. They had been guarding there all day yesterday, without any water to drink or food to eat, and they were frozen all day. But the Zhou family was fine, so it was most likely that they had taken the person away in the middle of the night.
I don’t know how many people are cursing Aunt Zhou in their hearts. We are all from the same village, but she doesn’t favor her own villagers, but favors outsiders. I don’t know how many old bachelors there are in the village. Aren’t they all unable to get married now?
She should have talked to the girl nicely. After all, they saved her life, so it was natural for her to marry into their village.
But they thought again, Aunt Zhou's family were not native villagers. They settled here when they were fleeing. Several families in the village were refugees. They have lived here for decades. Although they are familiar with the place, they are not from the same family. Of course, it is impossible for them to really side with the villagers. Besides, their sons and daughters-in-law are working outside the mountains and can earn a lot of money every month, unlike them who have to dig for food in the soil.
The more one thinks about it, the more unbalanced and unhappy one becomes.
Aunt Zhou couldn't find anyone here, so of course she couldn't see anyone either. What was she still doing here? Did she still want to be treated to a meal? They came in as fierce as they did when they left.
They are no longer guarding Aunt Zhou's house, but Huang's house instead. The Huang's house is much harder to enter than Aunt Zhou's house. Not to mention the high wall, even the glass shards on the wall make it difficult for people to go up. If they get hurt, it will not hurt others, but themselves.
Since the Huang family's door wouldn't open, they had no other choice. They couldn't break the door down, and there were dogs barking inside, so no one dared to go in.
Until Zhou Ying came back with a bundle of firewood, his little face wrinkled when he saw them. No matter what they asked, Zhou Ying didn't say anything. He just opened the door and then closed it hard. Even if they were sharp-eyed, they couldn't see what was inside the house.
They kept guarding like this for a few days, but fewer and fewer people came to guard, and fewer and fewer people were curious. In the end, there were hardly any people coming out of the door.
"Are these people so easy to get rid of?"
Liu Liang took a bite of the steamed bun. She knew that there were many people outside the door these days, all wanting to know what she looked like, but she had never been out. So far, except for the Zhou family, no one had ever seen her properly.
Zhou Ying also glanced outside.
"There's another woman in the village today, and everyone's gone over there to watch the fun."
As Zhou Ying spoke, he broke off a small piece of steamed bun and threw it to the big yellow dog. The big yellow dog barked, bit the steamed bun in one bite, squatted aside and started eating. It was an easy-to-raise dog and was never picky about food. It would even take a bite of a stone.
"Woman, where are you from?"
Liu Liang raised her head. Could anyone be as unlucky as her and fall off the mountain?
However, she was unlucky and broke her leg. However, it was not too bad because she met the Zhou family. They did not think she was troublesome, but took care of her like a family member. If she had fallen into the hands of others, she might be forcing the old bachelor in her family to marry her.
that is……
Zhou Ying didn't know what to say. She took another bite of the steamed bun and then spoke in a low voice.
"Uncle Aqiang spent two thousand yuan to buy it."
Liu Jing was not surprised to hear this. In a place like this, it was not impossible to buy a woman with money. She also heard from Zhou Ying that several families in the village bought their wives.
Even now, the trafficking of fathers, daughters and children occurs every year. Whether it is a crime or not, these old bachelors without wives don't care.
“I’ve even gone to see it.”
Zhou Ying snorted, "It's so ugly."
"Oh..." Liu Liang broke off a piece of steamed bun and stuffed it into her mouth. No matter whether it was ugly or not, she had already bought it. No matter how beautiful a woman was, when she came to such a place, her youth would be worn away by the life here. In the end, she would just be a woman who struggled for life and was abandoned by time.
Liu Liang doesn't care about other people's affairs. She can't even save herself now, so how can she save others?
"Sister, I'm going to collect firewood."
Tongying tied a rope around her waist and said, "Don't go out. The people outside are bad and not good people."
Liu Jing actually wanted to say that she was not a good person either, and it hurt a lot when she hit people.
She waved to Zhou Ying, pushed her wheelchair to the yard outside, picked up the broom on the ground and started sweeping the floor. She was doing too many things now, but sweeping the floor was okay.
