When Su Xiaogou saw his mother's posture, he felt it was too familiar and thought she was going to beat him.

He threw the backpack on the ground and ran out. Xu Guixiang chased him with one bare foot, holding the shoe in her hand.

Even though Su Gou was only seven years old, when he ran he looked like he was wearing a windmill. Xu Guixiang was no match for him.

Within two minutes of running, he had already left Xu Guixiang far behind.

Seeing that she couldn't catch up, Xu Guixiang got angry and threw the shoe in her hand towards Su Gou.

No.

She took off her other shoe and threw it over.

Still missed.

Su Xiaogou stood there looking at his mother from a distance, his two little eyes always vigilantly watching Xu Guixiang's every move. If there was any sign that something was wrong, he would immediately turn around and run forward.

At this time Su Wan walked out of the yard quickly.

"Mom, don't hit the dog. I took him there. If you want to blame someone, blame me."

"You're talking nonsense. You just came back. If it wasn't for the dog who led you there, you wouldn't even be able to find the way. I know you're protecting him. This kid doesn't know how high the heavens are and he's too courageous. What would you do if you two encountered any danger in the mountains and no one could help you?"

The more Xu Guixiang talked, the more scared she became. She pointed at Su Xiaogou and said, "If you have any problems, don't come back. You can't avoid this beating today. You just wait for me."

Su Wan was so anxious that she shouted at Su Xiaogou, "Xiaogou, tell mom that I took you there, not you who wanted to go, and then mom won't beat you."

But the dog seemed not to hear them. It just stood there and looked at them without explaining anything.

"Wanwan, don't speak for him. I'm such an old man, don't I have the ability to distinguish things?"

It seemed that no matter what she said that night, Xu Guixiang would not believe her. But that Su Gou was like a gourd with a sawed mouth, and did not say a word to defend himself.

Hey, you little dog, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's you who don't fight for it, so you can't blame me.

Su Wan hurriedly picked up the shoes that Xu Guixiang had thrown away. After she put them on, she grabbed her arm and tried to pull her back.

At this time, the gate of Lu Chengchuan's house next door rang, and Li Dani came out holding her son Choudan in her hand.

"Auntie, did the dog make you angry?"

After she asked, she saw Su Wan standing in front of Xu Guixiang, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hey! Xiaowan, are you coming back to see your parents?"

Su Wan hummed and called Li Dani "Auntie".

That day Su Wan came back with her son. She thought she was the girl her son was dating outside, which resulted in a complete mess.

But after that day, Li Dani took this matter to heart.

Her son was unwilling to accept his eldest daughter-in-law, and as a mother she did not force him.

Besides, my younger son is born outstanding, he deserves a better woman.

Her son is already over 24, and in rural areas, there are almost no unmarried people of this age. He should have started a family long ago. She thinks Su Wan is a perfect match for her son, so she has always been thinking about this matter.

I thought it would be a little difficult to see this girl, but I didn't expect that she would come back just two days later. It seems that the rumors before were all false. Biological children are always biological children.

Not only did he come back to recognize his parents, he also seemed to be quite close to the Su family.

"His sister just came back, and the boy took her to the mountains to pick mushrooms. You can imagine how dangerous it is in the mountains. If there is no adult accompanying them, they will be in trouble if they encounter wolves..."

Xu Guixiang pointed at Su 꺘狗 and explained to Li Dani.

"He deserves a beating. The mountain is not a place for children."

After Li Dani finished speaking, she reminded Su Wan, "Xiao Wan, you grew up in the city, but you think going up the mountain is fun. I tell you, it's dangerous there. We have lived here for most of our lives, and we always go up the mountain with a group. There have been cases of people being bitten by wolves in the neighboring village. Don't go up the mountain for no reason in the future."

"I know, ma'am, I won't go there again."

Su Wan knew that Li Dani told her this out of kindness, so she quickly responded.

The more Li Dani looked at her, the more she liked her. This child was not only pretty, but also seemed to be someone who was easy to get along with.

"Guixiang, Wanwan, come eat, and let the dog come back and eat first." Su Weiguo shouted at Xu Guixiang and the others while standing at the gate.

"My eldest daughter-in-law, when a child makes a mistake, you can just give him a few words of advice. You really want to beat the dog. I tell you, if you beat my grandson badly, I won't let you do it."

Old Mrs. Su pulled away her eldest son who was blocking the door and shouted at Xu Guixiang.

Old Mrs. Su loved her little grandson the most. When she heard that the dog went up the mountain, she felt a little scared. This kid was too brave. She wanted to teach him a lesson, so she didn't stop her daughter-in-law from chasing after her.

But within two minutes she started to worry, fearing that her grandson would really be beaten by his mother. If he got black and blue, she would not be able to bear it.

The eldest son's wife always beat those boys without any mercy. She said, "Don't break the small arms and legs of the dog." She couldn't sit still at home, so she ran out to persuade them.

"Mom, just get used to him."

Xu Guixiang knew that every time she wanted to teach Su the dog a lesson, whether by scolding or beating him, Old Lady Su would stand up and support him.

The old lady loved the dog, and of course she was happy because it was her own child. But she doted on the dog so much that she was really afraid that she would spoil the dog one day.

But she is the mother-in-law, so as a daughter-in-law, she dare not say too much in front of her.

"Okay, let's eat. Let's talk about everything after we eat. Don't scare the child. I feel bad for him even if you don't."

Xu Guixiang wanted to argue a little more, but Su Weiguo pulled her in by the arm.

Old Lady Su stood there and shouted at Su Xiaogou, "Xiaogou, come back quickly. Your mother said she won't beat you. Come back and have dinner."

When the dog saw his grandma coming out, he immediately became braver and ran towards her.

When he passed by Su Wan, he stuck out his tongue at her. Su Wan wanted to ask him why he didn't explain to her mother just now. She thought that Old Lady Su was there. She loved Su's dog so much. If she knew that she was the one who brought the dog up the mountain, she would definitely scold her.

Forget it, it's better to have less trouble than more. Let the dog bear the blame for now. She will make more delicious food for the dog later.

After they all went in, Su Wan saw Li Dani still standing at the door, glancing at her from time to time. She didn't want to just go in without saying hello.

"Auntie, have you had dinner yet? If not, come over and have something to eat with us."

"No need, just come in and eat, we have prepared dinner at home."

Su Wan nodded and walked towards the yard.

That night Cao Xiaohua and her two daughters also came back.

When Su Wan went in, the meal had already been served on the table, and Old Lady Su was distributing cornmeal cakes to everyone.

In addition to a large pot of stir-fried vegetables, there was also a pot of shredded potatoes and a plate of pickled vegetables on the table.

The dog was arranged by Old Lady Su to sit in front of her, so that he could be far away from Xu Guixiang and there was no need to worry that she would suddenly reach out and hit him.
