After placing the large vat in its proper place, they cautiously left the farm.
It's almost time; I don't want Song Jingzhou to come back and not be able to find me.
I was so focused on running with the tank on my back that I realized now that I'm surrounded by houses that are half-collapsed.
The dilapidated mud bricks are exposed, a silent scene.
Su Qingci checked the direction and strode forward, even humming a little tune to cheer herself up.
As I walked, I heard a strange buzzing sound, like many people talking in hushed tones, coming from somewhere.
Su Qingci instantly felt the hairs on her entire body stand on end.
Although she was a materialist, the events that happened to her forced her to overturn nearly twenty years of scientific education.
Her beautiful eyes scanned the surroundings, and soon fixed their gaze on a low house not far away.
The house was very strange; it looked as if half of the house had sunk into the ground, with only a low roof visible.
On the dilapidated loess wall, there stands a wooden board that is 1.5 meters high and 1.8 meters wide.
It was used as a door to cover up the gaps in the wall that weren't completely concealed.
Su Qingci's heart was pounding. She glanced around, then mustered her courage and slowly walked down the stone steps.
The sound was indeed coming from inside.
"What the hell? I'm not afraid of you."
Su Qingci kicked with all her might, and the wooden door covering the loess wall flew off.
With a bang.
The door slammed onto the ground, revealing the scene inside.
The dozens of tables inside were filled with people.
The loud noise startled everyone, and many of the people facing her made a move to stand up and run away.
Many people with their backs to Su Qingci subconsciously raised their hands, covered their heads, and squatted down.
Screams and chaos erupted simultaneously, and the scene briefly spiraled out of control.
When everyone realized that the person standing at the door was just a little girl, they were stunned.
The air seemed to freeze at that moment.
Several burly men glared at her fiercely, then slowly stood up, gripping the iron bars in their hands.
Just as Su Qingci was about to run away, two burly men with unpleasant expressions appeared behind her.
They stared fiercely at the person who had suddenly appeared before them.
Everyone else gets to go out for fresh air without any problems, but when it's their turn, their houses are demolished in the time it takes them to pee.
How are they supposed to explain this to their boss? How are they supposed to face their brothers after this?
Su Qingci thought to herself, "Damn it!" and panicked instantly.
How could she be so shameless? Curiosity really killed the cat.
This was clearly a small underground casino, and now she had kicked the door open.
Anyone who dares to do this kind of business at this time is no pushover.
Seeing the burly men walking towards her, Su Qingci gathered her strength, put her hands on her hips, and struck a pose like a shrew cursing in the street.
No matter what, we can't lose our momentum.
"Look at your mother? Look at her?"
"Haven't you ever seen a woman before?"
"Tell your boss to come out here and die!"
One of the underlings who had followed the leader whispered, "Brother Jun, looks like someone we know?"
"Looking for the boss!"
The burly man leading the group scrutinized Su Qingci with his eyes, his face expressionless.
It took him several seconds to say, "Go and ask Brother Long to come out."
The younger brother nodded and turned to the guest.
"Everyone, keep playing. It's someone we know; they're looking for Brother Long."
The people sitting around the table breathed a sigh of relief and lowered their heads to continue playing cards.
Su Qingci's body was tense, and she didn't dare to breathe loudly, but on the surface she appeared calm and composed.
Soon, a shirtless, crew-cut man was led out of the inner room by his underlings.
When the people surrounding Su Qingci saw their elder brother come out, they all dispersed.
"Who are you? What do you want?" Brother Long asked impatiently, his eyes still half-closed.
He was sound asleep when he was woken up by his younger brother, who said a pretty girl was looking for him.
This stir-fried green beans aren't his type either.
Su Qingci sized up the other person, who looked to be about thirty-five or thirty-six years old, with a sallow complexion, yellowish whites of his eyes, and heavy eye bags.
He looks like someone whose body has been hollowed out by alcohol and women.
This kind of person must have many lovers, right?
She recalled a movie she had once seen, and said with strong composure, "I am her sister."
Seeing the other person's confusion, Su Qingci continued, "She's pregnant."
A fierce glint flashed in Brother Long's eyes as he stared at Su Qingci without saying a word.
Su Qingci was extremely flustered; her back was soaked with sweat, and her palms were drenched in sweat.
After a long pause, Brother Long tentatively asked, "Are you talking about Xiao Fengxian?"
Su Qingci secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "Who else did you think it was?"
"What do we do now? She asked me to ask you."
The man scratched his head in frustration. "How did it happen?"
"Didn't I tell her to take her medicine?"
"She knows that the shrew in my house has connections, so I can't get a divorce."
Brother Long looked very irritable, pacing back and forth in front of Su Qingci with his hands behind his back.
His wife is the cousin of the deputy secretary of the county party committee, and she is the biggest connection behind him.
He liked Xiao Fengxian, but that was all; it couldn't be compared to personal gain.
“I told her long ago that I can’t give her a formal status.”
Su Qingci looked indignant. "What's the point of saying all this now?"
"What do we do now? What will she do in the future?"
"With such a big belly, how will she ever face anyone again? The gossip of the neighbors will drown her."
"If you can't give her a proper status, you shouldn't be looking for her anymore."
"You're trying to drive her to her death!"
Brother Long raised his hand. "Alright, alright, stop arguing and let me think about it."
Frustrated, I paced around in place twice.
"This child cannot be kept alive. If my tigress finds out, not only will she be killed, but I will also lose my life."
"The army, the army!"
"Hey, boss."
"Go and get her 20 yuan, 10 jin of grain coupons, and 2 jin of meat coupons."
"yes."
Brother Long said seriously to Su Qingci.
“Go back and tell her to handle the child herself.”
"Give her this money so she can take some to improve her health."
"I'll go see her again when I have some free time."
Su Qingci sighed deeply, as if she felt sorry for her sister.
"She thinks of everything for you and is afraid of affecting you, so she doesn't dare to come over in person."
"You should go see her as soon as you have some free time."
"She doesn't want your money; she's happy just to see you."
He reluctantly accepted the money and tickets handed to him by Dajun, then walked out with his head down and shoulders slumped, looking dejected.
Only after he passed the bend did he turn pale and run away like lightning.
Good heavens, that scared her to death.
I almost lost my life here.
