Chapter 163
Tiantian is back
"Look, this is how you squeeze the milk. That's right, squeeze it towards the heels, otherwise the cow will get angry. Cows are the breadwinners for us herders, so you have to treat them well, Tiantian."
The cowshed was smelly. Chen Tiantian was kneeling on the ground, imitating Youbu's mother and squeezing milk.
It has been half a month since she came to Sha Yi's house.
During this half month, she didn't have to go to school. Every day she learned to squeeze milk, make cheese, or go out to herd cattle. Needless to say, Chen Tiantian felt that her life was much happier than when she was at the base.
However, she would miss her mother occasionally. When she thought about how she always quarreled with her mother, but her mother could never win the argument and would cry on the kang out of anger, she felt sad.
"You and Yub are getting married tomorrow," said Yub's mother.
Chen Tiantian felt a little puzzled. "Auntie, Youbu and I have agreed that I will come to your house to be his sister, so why do we have to get married?"
Yubu's mother also thought it was funny. "Yes, it's a sister. But you should have a baby at your age. If you have a baby, let the cow feed it and it will grow up slowly. Isn't that what I mean?"
Chen Tiantian still felt that something was wrong, but because the Yub family was so nice to her, she just buried her head and went back to milking the cow.
Just as he was squeezing in, he suddenly heard someone shouting "Tiantian, Tiantian" not far away.
"Dad, why are you here?"
"You disobedient girl, get out of here!"
"No, I don't want to go back to school."
"If you don't leave, I'll shoot you." Chen Zili said as he pulled the bolt of his gun.
When Chen Tiantian saw it, he screamed and his father, who seemed to be crazy, was scared and started crying.
"Who, who is there?" Sure enough, Youb was repairing the fence. When he heard the sound of people talking here, he rode over on his horse.
"Get out of here!"
"I won't leave. I don't want to go back to school." The father and daughter started arguing again.
The laborer was standing outside. He saw a young man riding a horse galloping over. He shot him from a distance and shouted, "Drag him back and beat him to death. Chen Zili, how could you make a girl so ignorant?"
When herders go out, they always carry guns.
Yub's hat was blown off by the worker's gun, and he shouted immediately. His brothers who were around the ranch whistled, mounted their horses, and surrounded him.
"Are you going to leave or not? If not, I'll shoot you!" Seeing that Chen Tiantian would rather stay here to get milk squeezed than leave, Nie Gong was so angry that he shot the milk bucket with a gun. With a few clangs, the milk splashed all over Chen Tiantian's clothes.
The Youbu brothers had already gathered over there. Chen Zili had always been very kind to his daughter, but now he became cruel. He grabbed her hand, slapped her hard on the buttocks twice, picked her up and ran away.
He ran in front, and the laborers covered him from behind. Every herdsman on the grassland was a sharpshooter, and the laborers had to run forward at any time and find trees to cover their shots.
But even so, when he was halfway into the woods, the Yubu brothers had already surrounded him from all sides.
"Nan Gong, hurry up." Chen Zili was still fighting with his two daughters, and he had to turn around and call for Nan Gong.
Nie Bozhao aimed at the one coming from the left, and seeing that the other party was also pulling the bolt, after aiming, he wanted to shoot him in the head, but after all, these herdsmen were not real enemies, and he was soft-hearted. With a "whoosh" sound, half of the tree that he was using as a cover was blown down.
"No, there are people surrounding us in front. What should we do if we can't get out?" Chen Zili ran forward two steps, and seeing that there were also people in front of him, he hurriedly retreated.
But at this moment, there was a loud rumble, and the worker's jeep drove into the poplar forest with a cloud of dust, twisting and turning, and knocked down the man in front who was about to fire.
"Dad, get in the car quickly." Nie Weimin rolled down the window and waved, "Hurry up."
When Nie Gong and Chen Zili got into the car, they felt like their eyes were about to fall out. Why? Because Nie Weimin's driving skills were definitely not that of a novice.
No, Wang Xiaowu is still standing in the woods.
Nie Bozhao shouted, "Defense forces, get out of the way, there are people there."
Nie Weimin turned the steering wheel and suddenly rushed over, only to see Wang Xiaowu being hit and sent flying with a bang. Chen Zili behind him also shouted, "Weimin, if you don't know how to drive, don't drive recklessly. Look, you hit someone."
There were already dense trees in the poplar forest. Nie Weimin held the steering wheel with one hand and stepped on the clutch to change gears, avoiding the trees. In the blink of an eye, he had left the herdsmen behind and was on the road.
"I work hard every day, and your mother grows sugar beets and cotton on the farm. We never let you feel the wind, nor did we let you suffer any hardship. We didn't ask you to study well. We just asked you to stay in school well, and I would be like a principal and a ancestor. You should at least grow up peacefully for me. It's really unbelievable that even someone like Liu Xiaohong didn't learn to elope with someone, but you did."
Chen Zili swung the belt and slapped Chen Tiantian's butt with a loud slap.
Now, all the people in the family area are watching outside the wall. It is really embarrassing. But compared to the embarrassment, the most important thing is that a good girl almost became the wife of a herdsman. If Chen Zili didn't go with the workers to snatch her back today, she might be pregnant at the age of fourteen or fifteen. This girl hasn't grown up yet, but her life has been wasted.
"I'm asking you, are you still going to run away?" Chen Zili roared and whipped Tiantian's butt, making her tremble all over.
"Mom, mom, please save Tiantian, I beg you." Erdan was as sad as he was happy when he ate the rabbit at noon.
But Mommy Ham doesn't think so. "She eloped at such a young age. In my opinion, this is something that cannot be persuaded. Tiantian should be beaten. Otherwise, she will never grow up."
When Chen Zili heard this, he became even more ruthless and hit Chen Tiantian twice with his belt.
She was only fourteen years old. She had not grown taller, and looked to be only about 1.5 meters tall at most. She was thin and small. She stayed in the herdsman's home, and the flowery shirt she wore was probably bought by that Yubu. It was of poor quality and thin.
And she didn't cry. She just stood there with a red face, looking like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, and was being beaten by her father.
Nie Gong had a scratch on his hand, and was asking Nie Weimin to apply iodine to him in the study. "Good boy, this is your first time touching a car, and you drive it really well."
"No, you and my mother drive it often, so I'm just copying." Nie Weimin was very humble.
The worker frowned in pain. "You hit two people at the time. The herdsman was suspected of child trafficking, so he certainly didn't dare to report it. But Wang Xiaowu is someone we know. I guess he will go to the mining area public security bureau to report this. But don't be afraid, Dad will take care of you."
"Thank you, Dad." Nie Weimin looked honest and upright. He himself had a scratch on his forehead, but he was wiping iodine in front of the mirror without frowning.
When Nie Gong looked up, he saw his sister standing at the door with her mouth pouting.
Don't look at his small age. He is only a little over one year old, and he is very sneaky and can sneak anywhere.
"It hurts, it hurts," she said.
Maybe because she saw that her father was injured, she kept telling him that he was in pain and even blew on his wound.
"Oh my little satellite, little star, please never grow up, okay?" Girls are troublesome when they grow up, even more troublesome than boys.
The worker heard the sound of the belt being whipped and then heard Tiantian crying, and he felt really sad.
"Zi Li, stop hitting me. Come to my house for dinner. Can you let Tian Tian go in first?" Chen Lina couldn't persuade him at first, but when she saw that Chen Zi Li was beating her so hard, she couldn't bear it anymore and quickly snatched his belt.
Chen Zili whipped him hard again and dragged Chen Lina over here to eat.
"Those herdsmen kidnapped such a young girl like ours, we can't just let it go like this. Xiao Wang was so angry that he almost drank pesticide in his hometown. As for me, I tell you, if I don't kill that Yubu, I won't be named Chen." Chen Zili was so angry that his hands were still shaking when he picked up the bowl.
The Harbin Institute of Technology came in, holding a hunting rifle and said, "No, we can't let them mess with the girls in our base. Get in the car and let's go to Bayinguoleng and have a fight."
Qian Gong and Wang Zonggong also came in, and they were also angry about the herdsmen who kidnapped girls at will. "Anyway, this matter can't be left like this. Let's go together. It's not just a matter of making money, but also of arguing. How can we kidnap a 13 or 14-year-old girl at will? If we don't take her back, will Tiantian be ruined by those people and become a herdsman's wife, right?"
Isn't it that everyone relies on Nie Gong? After all, he is a good shooter, a steady person, and the backbone of everyone.
The worker's hand was broken by the sandpaper bullet, and the sandpaper was still tangled on it.
He picked up the rabbit meat with chopsticks and slapped his hands on the table and said, "I was in that family's cowshed and I saw a lot of big editor's bags stained with crude oil. Those are the things that oil thieves use."
An oil thief is an oil thief in a mining area.
You know, the oil thieves in the mining area are a big nuisance.
"Then tell me, what should we do?" When Chief Engineer Wang heard about the oil thief, he was so angry that smoke came out of his nose, and he was still smoking.
Their security team checks the oil wells and along the pipelines every day, but the oil thieves always come with homemade guns.
Secondly, they had the protection of local herdsmen, so they robbed and ran away in a high-profile manner. When the oil workers wanted to chase them, they were shot by hidden gunmen.
The security team has been attacked by spies several times and they don’t even dare to chase the criminals. Every time, they just sit there and watch as the oil is stolen.
If crude oil is sold to that kind of crude oil refinery, it is guaranteed to make a profit. But what does the oil field rely on to survive? It relies on oil. So many large machines and factories cannot be maintained without exchanging oil for money.
So, when it comes to those oil thieves, the bosses at the base are really angry.
"I will discuss this matter with Yu Donghai. If the Shayi family in Bayingoleng is really a big oil guzzler, we have to shovel their whole family down." Nie Gong tore into the rabbit meat and said say.
So, he said, "Don't worry, Tiantian's tone will be resolved sooner or later. As for Shayi's family, as long as they are found to be stealing oil, the mining area will give them a light sentence. I will personally take up my gun and shoot their whole nest."
Here, Chen Lina prepared half a bowl of hot white rice, put two pieces of lean rabbit meat on it, covered it with half a plate of stir-fried meat with sweet peppers, peeled half a bunch of vegetables, and brought it to Tiantian.
It was the first time that Nie Weimin drove in front of his father. Wow, his driving skills were amazing. Just now when Nie Gong got out of the car, he gave him a thumbs up. Now that Tiantian was rescued, he was unprecedentedly confident. He hugged his sister and followed behind Chen Lina.
Erdan had been next door for a long time, busy boiling water for Chen Tiantian, fetching water for her to wash her face, and was trying to persuade her.
"Okay, don't cry and don't feel embarrassed. My brother and I were also beaten by my father a few days ago, and we are both fine." Erdan bought a towel and gave it to Tiantian.
He felt that it was okay to beat his father up, as long as he came back, right?
Tiantian refused to take it, nor did she cry. She just sat on the edge of the kang, biting her lip.
"Wipe it, wipe it." The younger sister gestured on her face with her hands, worried about Tiantian, meaning to ask her to wipe her face.
"Erdan, you and Weimin go out. I want to talk to Tiantian for a while."
These children have suddenly grown up this year. Of course, they are now boys and girls in their adolescent period. It is really time to give them serious sex education and life education.
For children, this stage is also the time when they feel most helpless and confused.
In this kind of confusion, adults are actually helpless sometimes, otherwise, would Sister Wang make Tiantian so angry that she had a heart attack?
The two brothers were smart enough to close the door for Chen Lina when they went out.
"Tiantian, how about this? No matter how hard it is for you, just hang around in school for two more years until you reach the third year of junior high school. Your father is a worker, and the score line for the Red Expert program in the mining area is very low. Then you can study for two years, and then I will call you to my woolen textile factory. Is that okay?"
Some children are born not good at studying. If you really want them to go to college, don't even think about it.
Now that there is no reform and opening up, getting into university is like a competition of thousands of people trying to cross a single-plank bridge. Parents have great wishes, but students face very few opportunities. If they study too hard, they are only making themselves suffer. So why bother?
Sure enough, Tiantian’s heart knot is that she doesn’t want to study.
She said, "I have already run away with someone. If I go back, the teachers and the female students at school will scold me to death."
"Who scolded you?" Chen Lina asked back. Seeing that Chen Tiantian was stunned and seemed to want to avoid the question, she directly asked, "Did someone scold you? You don't want to study because you are scolded, right?"
"Many female classmates said that I had an ugly figure and that I looked like a woman who had given birth. Many other female classmates gossiped about me behind my back every day, saying that I must have secretly given birth to a child for a man." Chen Tiantian originally wanted to hide all this, but she was scared by her father, so now she dared to tell the truth.
"Tell me, who are the girls who gossip about you, especially the one who said you gave birth to a baby for a man? Who spread this rumor?"
"I don't know, but all the students in the school are spreading this news. Aunt Chen, I really can't stay here anymore, otherwise I wouldn't have thought of leaving with a herdsman. I'm just too embarrassed and just want to hide away." Chen Tiantian said, and then she started crying.
The child also has her own grievances, but how can she tell her mother when she spreads such ugly stories?
Well, typical school bully.
Chen Lina said, "Okay, I will slowly find out about this matter when I start working. If any child dares to say such things, I will slap her mother in the face. Since you don't want to go to junior high school anymore, then I think I can talk to Director He and you can start working directly in the wool textile factory starting tomorrow."
"Can I really go to work directly?" Chen Tiantian was overwhelmed when she heard this.
To be honest, if Chen Lina hadn't gone to the Party School for the past six months, the child probably wouldn't have ended up like this.
"Okay, but you won't be able to work on the machine tools after you go there. You can only do sanitation and sweep the workshop. Also, you are too young, and our factory cannot employ child laborers. I will find a way to pay you your salary privately," said Chen Lina.
In fact, when she said this, she was thinking about allocating part of her salary to Chen Tiantian.
After all, Chen Lina really couldn't bear to let go of the girl who had been raised by herself since she was a child, who was on the road of no return at a young age because of school bullying and precocious puberty.
Chen Tiantian was a simple-minded person and did not think so much. She was just very happy when she heard that she could enter the woolen textile factory that all the girls in the mining area dreamed of, and could wear a light red shirt and a white hat and apron.
She took her sister in her arms, looked at her, touched her nose and said, "Nie Weixing, do you know that when you were not around, your three brothers kept telling me how cute you were, and it made my ears ache?"
Chen Lina looked out the window. Nie Weimin and Erdan both had their arms folded. Erdan had a broad back and strong shoulders. Nie Weimin stood a little straighter, like a poplar tree.
One is a little stronger than Nie Gong, and the other is a little thinner than Nie Gong, but looking at their heads, they are almost exactly the same as Nie Bozhao.
She turned Tiantian's ear and whispered, "But, Auntie has something to ask, you have to tell me the truth. I want to ask you, have you ever slept on the same bed with that man?"
Chen Tiantian's face suddenly turned red.
"Tell me, have you slept with them before?" Chen Lina was different from those men who were so angry that they slammed the table and vowed to pick up guns and fight the herdsmen. What she was most worried about was that Chen Tiantian had been bullied by the boy from that family.
Then, I was afraid that if she got pregnant, it would be a disaster.
After all, she heard from Nie Weijiang that Chen Tiantian seemed to have given birth to a child when she was only fourteen or fifteen years old.
"Youbu wanted to sleep with me, but his mother wouldn't let him." Chen Tiantian whispered, "The auntie in that family was a nice person. She beat Youbu and chased him away from me."
As herdsmen, they all sleep in a large felt house.
It seems that, although it is said that men are good-for-nothings, Yubu's mother is not completely evil. Otherwise, Chen Tiantian would have no place to appeal for justice.
"Did Yubu bully you? We will take you to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow. Tiantian, you can't lie to your aunt. Tell the truth. You really didn't bully you, right?"
"If all girls have hymens, then I have one, and I am not afraid to go to the hospital for examination." Tiantian said, tears welling up in her eyes. The reason why she made up her mind to leave the mining area was because her parents always forced her to go to school, and everyone in school said she was not clean.
"Okay, then go to sleep quickly, Tiantian. I'm telling you, I'll only save you this time. If you dare to run again, even gods can't save you. Do you understand?"
Originally, she wanted to reprimand her harshly, but when she saw that the sweet girl was now tortured into this state by rumors, Chen Lina couldn't bear to do it.
Well, at night, when it was time to go to bed, my sister refused to do any labor.
The little guy was still wearing a diaper, and his two chubby little feet were pedaling hard.
"Bad!" she said.
Chen Lina came back from taking a bath and saw her daughter looking angry. She knew her daughter was smart since she was young. Don't look at her small size, she has a lot of ideas in her head.
The laborers kicked her here and there, but she couldn't get on the kang.
"Weixing, what's wrong with Dad that you won't let him sleep on the bed?" Chen Lina held back her laughter, turned her sister over and asked.
My sister stared at the worker angrily for a long time, pointed at her chin and said, "Tie it up, tie it up."
Well, it turns out that when the worker was kissing his younger sister, he didn’t shave and gave the baby a haircut.
"Don't you see that my lady has given up on you? Go shave your beard quickly." Miss Chen thought the half-grown beard of the worker was quite funny, so she said.
The worker touched his chin, then suddenly stretched out his hand and turned off the light. "Little girl, she doesn't like my beard, but her mother likes it. Miss Chen, don't you think so?"
The younger sister was crying loudly, and the worker pressed Miss Chen down on the kang and kissed her all over.
Well, the stubble of beard pricks my skin and it feels tingling, which is really fun.
Miss Chen never complains about the laborious process of styling her beard.
Nie Gong panted for a while, and then, feeling annoyed by his sister's noise, he carried her to where Nie Weimin and the others were.
The Nie Weimin brothers were very happy. Erdan was very happy and came to hug his sister just like Grandma Wolf did.
But as far as my sister can remember, she has never seen so many smelly brothers.
Her little mind was filled with sadness.
Is this still your biological child?
