House robbed
Wang Yao's voice rang in my ears again: "After walking through the gates of hell, I made a decision. I want to stay away from those scumbags and scumbags. I want to go out into a wider world. Life is infinitely good, youth is in its prime. Nothing is more terrible than death. Since I can live, I must live the life I want."
Sun Min stared into Wang Yao's eyes, those eyes held a beauty that she could only long for but never attain. She murmured, "What you want, you can never have; what you get, you never want."
Wang Yao gripped Sun Min's shoulders with both hands, meeting her gaze with unwavering eyes. "If I want something, I will get it. Sun Min, remember this phrase: 'If I want it, I will get it.' As long as you're on the right path, no one can stop you!"
"Is everyone here? Is everyone here? 1, 2, 3... We'll leave once everyone's here..."
The bus started moving, and the scenery outside the window changed, but Sun Min was completely unaware. All she could think about was Wang Yao's determined look and the words, "I want it, and I get it!"
Although the rural roads at that time were paved, they were full of potholes because they could not be repaired in time.
Wang Yao fell asleep on the swaying of the bus, only to be woken up by the jolting. After this happened several times, they finally arrived in Jinchuan Town.
"Ouch, my goodness, my back is going to break from all that jolting!" Wang Yao jumped off the bus, rubbing her back and complaining.
Liu Xiangmei slapped her on the shoulder, "Bullshit, you're just a kid, where did you get such a back?"
Wang Yao immediately moved her hand from rubbing her waist to her shoulder, her eyes filled with resentment. She really needed to have a serious talk with her mother; her habit of hitting people at the drop of a hat was terrible!
But Liu Xiangmei paid no attention to her, and instead took care of Sun Min, saying, "Xiao Min, after we get to this part of the road, it's all mountain road. You're not used to walking on mountain roads, so follow your aunt and walk slowly!"
Sun Min smiled shyly, "Auntie, it's okay, you don't need to take care of me."
By this time, the sun had already risen. Sun Min grew up in the county town and didn't often go out to play with her classmates. The steepest slope she usually climbed was the road from her home to the school in the city. So, halfway up the mountain road, she felt her legs were sore and she was sweating a lot.
Fortunately, she had been here once before and had prepared herself mentally. Moreover, when she looked back, she saw that the mountain was quite steep, and even standing halfway up it looked quite high.
Standing at such a high place, the people who were pointing and gossiping at them from the foot of the mountain have become a tiny dot, and their embarrassing and awkward laughter has completely disappeared.
She gasped for breath, as if exhaling all the sadness and confusion that had been weighing on her chest, and felt a sense of relief.
They persevered, and finally saw a bamboo forest in the distance. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, because they knew they would be home once they passed through the bamboo forest.
Liu Ailing was feeding chickens in the bamboo grove when she heard someone coming. She turned around and her face instantly darkened.
Didn't this mother and daughter run away? Why are they back?
However, Wang Yao and Liu Xiangmei didn't even bother to look at her and went straight up the steps into the courtyard.
Only Sun Min was unaware of anything. Startled by Liu Ailing's resentful gaze, she shuddered and quickly followed Liu Xiangmei.
Liu Xiangmei walked to the door, intending to unlock it with her key, only to see that the lock had been sawed open and was hanging loosely on the door.
Her anger flared up instantly, and she turned around and started cursing: "Which damned thief stole from my house? Did you steal my things to buy more days to live? I bet you short-lived bastard, even if you stole my things, you won't live a few more days. If you can't live anymore, then just die..."
Liu Xiangmei stood in the courtyard, hurling insults and curses at the Wang family, but none of the Wang family members came out. Only Liu Ailing stood in the bamboo grove, her face changing unpredictably, sometimes pale, sometimes flushed.
After cursing for more than ten minutes, Liu Xiangmei finally spat into the bamboo grove, "A whole family of despicable scum!"
This was intolerable. Liu Ailing threw down what she was holding and was about to confront Liu Xiangmei when she saw Wang Yao behind Liu Xiangmei.
Wang Yao was standing in front of the door with a machete in his hand, staring at her with a sinister look, as if he would smash the machete into her head if she dared to fight back.
In the past, she would never have taken Wang Yao, a little girl, seriously. But after what happened the day before yesterday, Liu Ailing had witnessed Wang Yao's madness firsthand, and she knew that Wang Yao was truly daring.
Liu Ailing was frozen in place by Wang Yao and the machete in her hand, and watched helplessly as they entered the room.
When Liu Xiangmei returned to her bedroom, she found it ransacked, with even the straw mat on her bed scattered everywhere.
When they went to Wang Yao's room, they found that every place where things could be placed had been searched, and even her books had been taken out, flipped through, and thrown haphazardly on the floor.
Liu Xiangmei was furious and wanted to go to Old Wang's house again to teach that inhuman family a lesson.
Wang Yao quickly stopped her, "Mom, don't go. Don't get angry with those kinds of people. They came looking for money, and they must be anxious because they didn't find it. If you go and they try to extort you, it won't be worth it."
Liu Xiangmei spat, "Those shameless bastards dare to extort me, I'll fight them to the death."
Wang Yao pushed Liu Xiangmei toward Liu Xiangmei's bedroom, advising, "Why bother? You're going to be a big boss someday, and I'm going to be a college student. Don't get entangled with those bastards. Check if anything is missing, and then get ready to cook. Sun Min and I are hungry."
Hearing Wang Yao say that, Liu Xiangmei's lips curled up. That's right, what's the point of arguing with a bedbug? She and Yao Yao will be leaving soon, and their good days are yet to come!
Sun Min helped Wang Yao pick up all the books from the ground and then started tidying up the messy clothes and blankets.
When Wang Yao returned, she asked, "Is this really all there is to it?"
Wang Yao grinned, "Hmph, how could that be? Just you wait!"
After tidying up a bit, I realized that the only valuable things in the house besides pots, pans, and dishes were clothes and bedding. The Wang family didn't care about these things; what they wanted was money.
Without Wang Tianmiao's pension and Wang Yao's money from being sold into servitude, the Wang family is now extremely anxious, otherwise they wouldn't have dared to openly steal from their home.
Standing at the door, Liu Xiangmei saw that Wang Yao's side was almost finished tidying up, so she instructed, "I'll go to the vegetable garden in the back to pick some vegetables, and you go to the bamboo grove to catch a chicken. I'll come back and kill it in a bit. Xiaomin is here, let's have a good lunch."
Sun Min was a little embarrassed and wanted to say that it wasn't necessary to spend money, but Wang Yao interrupted her, "Mom, how are we going to cook the chicken?"
Seeing her greedy look, Liu Xiangmei said irritably, "Just make chicken soup, what else do you want to eat?"
Wang Yao quickly said, "I want to dry-roast it, let's dry-roast it, okay? Let's make it spicy, we have lots of chili peppers in our field, okay, Mom, my dear good mom..."
Annoyed by Wang Yao's incantation, Liu Xiangmei rolled her eyes. "I made this for Xiaomin, why are you talking nonsense?"
Wang Yao winked at Xiao Min, "Xiao Min likes to eat like this too, right, right Xiao Min?"
Xiaomin chuckled, "Anything is fine with me."
"Look, Xiaomin said yes, I'm going to catch chickens, Xiaomin, come with me!"
Liu Xiangmei watched the two of them run hand in hand into the bamboo forest, shaking her head with a smile. They were such mischievous monkeys.
Catching chickens was a first for Sun Min, like a young woman getting married.
Under Wang Yao's command, the two were about to surround the chicken, but a chicken flapped its wings and flew up. Sun Min was only focused on screaming and dodging. When she turned around, she saw that Wang Yao had already grabbed a chicken's wing and was laughing "hehehe".
If, at the county town train station, Wang Yao was a psychologically mature, strong, and brave girl in Sun Min's eyes, now, all that's left is bravery.
Psychological maturity? Absolutely not!!
Wang Yao squatted by the yard with a chicken in her hand, and asked Sun Min to go to the kitchen and get a bowl and a kitchen knife.
Hearing the commotion from Old Wang's house, she turned around and saw Liu Lan coming out, clutching toilet paper, probably going to the bathroom.
Liu Lan also saw Wang Yao holding the chicken. She frowned. This was her chicken. What right did this little slut have to grab it?
That's right. In her mind, Wang Yao and Liu Xiangmei left, and everything they didn't take belonged to her family.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to curse, he saw Sun Min come out.
