It was a long way from the Meng family's home that Meng Qidi finally caught her breath. She slowly stretched out her hand, her palms full of sweat.
When Sun Fang said she wanted to sell her, anger arose in her heart and she threw the knife at him without thinking.
She regretted being too impulsive. Fortunately, the knife was from the Yuquan Space. It was probably prepared by Meng Yuzhen in her previous life, and there was no mark on it.
Meng Qidi stopped and gently shook her hand. When did she become so strong and so precise? Was it really the effect of the Jade Spring?
She just drank some ordinary water. If she drank the lotion above, wouldn't it be...
Meng Qidi's heartbeat quickened uncontrollably, and she became more and more certain that the Yuquan space must not be known to anyone.
After standing outside for a while, Meng Qidi did not go back, but went directly to the field, quickly finished the work at hand, said something to the team leader, took the letter of introduction, and left Mengjia Village.
She wanted the Ling family to cancel the engagement with her, otherwise, with the selfish Meng family, they would probably want her to get married right away...
Lingjia Village is located in a remote mountainous area east of Songyuan Town. It is considered a poor team in the entire brigade. Songyuan Town is also known as the Songyuan Production Brigade, which is divided into seven teams. Lingjia Village belongs to the third team, and Meng Qidi's Mengjia Lane belongs to the sixth team.
Lingjia Village is so poor that even the road leading into the village is full of potholes. If it rains, you won’t be able to enter the village.
On one side are deep mountains and old forests, and on the other side are high and steep banks. The forest is silent, cold and a little creepy.
Having died once and been sold to the mountains for decades, Meng Qidi was not afraid of such mountains and forests, and even picked a lot of wild vegetables along the way.
It was just the beginning of spring, and there were few people around here. The bamboo shoots were lush, so she pulled a lot of them and put them in the space...
When she was about to enter the village, she took out a bundle of bamboo shoots from the space and walked towards the village entrance.
"Comrade, what can I do for you?"
An old man looked Meng Qidi up and down with a sly look in his eyes.
There haven't been any young girls in their village for a long time. Even if there were educated youth sent down to the village, no one would be willing to come to this godforsaken place.
Although the girl was not dressed well, she was young and a girl.
"I'm looking for Ling Xiao. Where is his home?"
Meng Qidi looked around and said that Mengjia Lane was poor, and Lingjia Village was even poorer, with dilapidated adobe houses everywhere.
Not to mention the bumpy road. Other villages have already started farming and sowing, but here the ground is full of weeds...
Not far away, a few children were running around in the fields with their bare butts and bare feet.
Meng Qidi frowned slightly. Her first impression of this village was that it was poor and lazy. No wonder Meng Yuzhen refused to marry here.
When the uncle heard the name Ling Xiao, his expression changed. "It's the first one in the west of the village. Go there by yourself."
After saying that, he walked away muttering, "Someone is looking for Ling Xiao's jinx too. Are you tired of living? I originally thought this girl was pretty good and could be a daughter-in-law. Tsk, is she crazy to look for Ling Xiao's family?"
Unlucky star?
Meng Qidi was a little surprised to hear this word for the second time. It was so fresh that there was actually someone as unlucky as her.
Ignoring the strange looks from the villagers, Meng Qidi walked past a large pond and headed towards the west of the village.
Although it is called the west of the village, there are actually only a few households on this side. A winding stream separates the village from the west, and weeds grow along the stream. It is obvious that the villagers do not use water for washing here, but in a large pond.
Would rather use stagnant water than this running water. Meng Qidi was a little surprised that this Ling Xiao's family was the one she was looking for?
There is a single-plank bridge made of two trees over the stream. Perhaps because it is close to the stream, the wood is rotten and covered with moss. If you are not careful, you will probably fall into the water.
"Sister, who are you looking for?"
A clear child's voice came from the opposite side. Meng Qidi looked up and saw a child with messy hair standing opposite her.
Afraid that the child would come over, Meng Qidi hurriedly walked over carefully. She squatted down and found that although the child was dirty, he had a pair of beautiful big eyes.
Meeting the child's eyes, Meng Qidi couldn't help but soften her voice, "I'm looking for Ling Xiao's house. Do you know where his house is?"
The child tilted his head and said, "Are you looking for my uncle? But my uncle is not at home. Grandma is at home."
Although the child is small, he speaks clearly and exudes a sense of cleverness.
Uncle? Is this Ling Xiao's nephew?
"Sister, sister?"
After being called a few times, Meng Qidi came back to her senses and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Are you coming to my house, sis?"
