Chapter 25 Ah! These days are becoming more and more hopeful!
Although he didn't see anyone, Song Zhenping was already alert at this time. He kept walking and followed the man holding Xiao An and strode forward.
The two walked too fast and bumped into several people, causing several complaints: "Hey Dekui, the road is so narrow, why are you running? You've hurt people's waists!"
"Daping! Why are you so panicked? You're stepping on my foot!"
Song Zhenping apologized and ran forward.
Until the sky turned pale and the outline of Qingping Town came into sight, he still did not see Song Liyun.
"Uncle Kui, you are lying to me!" Song Zhenping already understood that Yun'er did not come.
The village head said that my second sister would escape with the team, and he was lying to himself.
He dropped his bedding and turned to run. He wanted to go back to find Yun'er.
Song Zhenping knew that this was his only chance.
As long as it was daytime, the second uncle's family would keep a close eye on Yun'er, send her to the Xue family, and then torture her to death.
Seeing him walking back, Song Dekui jumped up in anxiety and grabbed him and dragged him forward: "You stubborn idiot! If you run back now, you will delay the government's business and you will be punished with a stick."
Getting beaten is no big deal.
If the family's affairs were to fall apart, Yun Yatou wouldn't be able to escape, and Song Zhenping wouldn't be in any good situation either. It's better for as many people as possible to leave first.
Ever since Song Dekui learned about what his father had arranged for him yesterday at noon, he has been muttering in his heart: Second Brother Defu is really hopeless.
Not only did he get the government pension from Deshan's elder brother, but he also got the eldest wife's property.
The children have not eaten for free over the years and have earned a lot of money from working, but they are still not treated well.
Everyone knows that the money spent by Song Lao Er on renovating his house was almost entirely from the eldest son's house.
Now that the child has grown up, he actually wants to sell Yun girl for money.
Yun Yatou’s marriage is decided by the elders, and the villagers have no control over it. I don’t know if Yun Yatou can escape this time?
Song Zhenping was held by him, and his face turned red and his veins bulged with anxiety, and his internal organs seemed to be burning.
"Uncle Kui, Yun'er, what should we do with Yun'er?"
"What else can we do? Let's go to town first."
Song Dekui was speechless. Regardless of whether Yun escaped or not, he could only take Song Zhenping to the town first.
As the two of them were pulling each other, a voice came with a smile: "Brother, what are you doing? I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Yun'er!
Song Zhenping turned around suddenly and saw Song Liyun coming out from the bushes beside him, patting the grass leaves on his head and yawning, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
Beside him, the tall and thin man holding Xiao An opened his mouth in surprise and said in shock, "My goodness, you really escaped. I thought my father was lying.
Tell me quickly, how did you escape the eyes of those two shrews? "
Song Liyun didn't know this person, and seeing him being noisy, she just turned to look at Song Zhenping.
Song Zhenping took Xiao An and whispered, "You don't even recognize him? This is Uncle Kui from the village head's family."
Song Liyun suddenly realized that this tall and thin man was Song Lizheng's third son, who Song Lizheng had told her about before.
The third son is called Song Dekui. He works as a gelder in the town, specializing in castrating livestock. He also works part-time in the cattle and horse trading business. He is 21 years old and has not yet married. He is a bachelor.
This time, Song Lizheng's family also needed a laborer. Song Lizheng did not pay the laborer, but called him back to help take care of the three brothers and sisters of the Song family.
Hearing that it was someone from the village head's family, Song Liyun hurriedly and obediently called out, "Uncle Kui!"
Originally, she thought that at the age of 21, it would be enough for her to just call him Brother Kui.
But we all have the same surname, Song, in Xiaoshi Village, so we are from the same family. He is a generation older than me, so naturally I have to call him uncle.
Song Dekui chuckled, "Girl Yun, you don't remember me. When we were little, I used to carry you on my back, but we ended up rolling down the ridge of a field and got covered in mud!"
Song Liyun was embarrassed: I'm afraid the original owner doesn't even remember this, so how would I know?
As the three of them were talking, others came over one after another. Some of them were surprised to see Song Liyun: "Isn't this Liyun? The Xue family has sent the betrothal gifts. You should be staying at home to get married. Why are you here?"
Facing the villagers' questions, Song Dekui calmly explained, "It's still early for Yun to get married, so Song Lao Er arranged for her to work as a cook on the construction site to earn some pocket money."
Oh, I see!
Song Dekui is the son of the village head, so his words still have some authority.
The villagers believed it immediately and then shook their heads and sighed.
With the temperament of Song Laoer's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Daping is exploited at home and has no time to rest. Now he has to bring his mentally ill brother with him to the construction site.
Naturally, they would not let go of Song Liyun, a grown-up girl. She could earn at least three or four hundred coins by cooking for people at the construction site.
But the construction site is full of men, and they speak rudely and behave disrespectfully.
Apart from the elderly mothers-in-law, even young wives are unwilling to go, let alone an unmarried girl.
Yun Yatou must have been forced to work.
The villagers felt sympathetic, but they could not help. At most, they cursed Song Laoer for being cruel.
At this time, in the town, except for Xiaoshi Village, people from several other villages who were going to perform labor service also gathered there.
The open space outside the town where stalls were set up during the day was suddenly crowded with people. People who knew each other were coming and going, greeting each other, and running around in a group.
In the crowd, there were several women standing together and talking loudly. They were also from other villages who were going to the construction site to earn money.
With them around, Song Liyun holding Xiao An's hand no longer attracted attention.
Soon, a clerk from the town's public housing came out with a list and loudly stated the precautions, but there was chaos below and his words were drowned out by the chattering.
Fortunately, the leaders of each village knew that they were going to the county town to serve this time.
As soon as the clerk finished speaking, the villagers began to follow the clerk's carriage, urging and shouting, and began to walk towards the county town in a noisy manner.
Although they had not slept all night, the three brothers and sisters were still full of energy, blending into the crowd, like a drop of water merging into a stream, or a bird flying out of the jungle, happily running towards the vast world.
In Xiaoshi Village, Song Laoer watched the people doing corvée labor gradually walk away until there was no sound at all. He then listened to a few people chatting nearby for a while, then he yawned out of boredom and staggered home.
Song Zhenping and the Death Star are both gone. Now we just have to wait for Mr. Xue to pick them up. All the money will go into his pocket, and Song Liyun will have to send money home in the future.
There are no worries at all.
Ah! These days are becoming more and more promising!
Song Laoer was in a good mood, humming a little tune, thinking that it was still early, so he went back to the bed and took a nap.
But before he got home, he saw the gate of his yard wide open, and the faint howling of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could be heard from inside.
Song Lao Er frowned, and suddenly felt irritated: What is this mother yelling about? She really doesn't let me have any peace and quiet every day.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw Mrs. Gu rolling on the ground in the dim morning light, scratching the ground with her hands, crying out heartbreakingly: "Oh my God! This life is unbearable!"
