Chapter 101: The Virgin Mary's Heart
"No, I think that man deserves to be beaten."
Zhao Jinchen naturally heard the sarcasm in her words. It was not her fault. No one could tolerate this.
Li Sihui was a little surprised. Was this man taking the wrong medicine? She was used to being criticized by him in the guise of justice, and she was not used to him suddenly speaking to her like this.
She couldn't help but look at him, and found that his eyes were deep, and he looked at her with sympathy, curling his lips and sneering, was he full of compassion? Did she need his pity?
"That's good, can I go now?"
He spoke lightly, with no ups and downs in his voice, sounding distant. Zhao Jinchen silently made way and said nothing more.
Seeing Li Sihui struggling to carry the bucket of water towards home, he really wanted to go over to help, but with this girl's temper, she might say something sarcastic to him.
Throw the wooden barrel back into the well, turn the wheel, and soon you will hear the sound of the wooden barrel falling into the well water.
She subconsciously looked up and saw Li Sihui already carrying a bucket of water into the courtyard of her house. She lowered her eyes and continued to crank the wheel, pumping water into the iron bucket and carrying it home.
The water tank in Li Sihui's home was moved away by her father. Now she has to fetch water as she needs it. It's not far away, but it's also very troublesome.
"Sister, I'll wash the dishes."
Li Jianguo hurried over to take the bucket, poured some water into the basin, and washed both the bowl and the basin together.
"Look after the house while I go into the mountains."
Having tasted the sweetness, Li Sihui naturally would not give up such a huge treasure. She went into the mountains to hunt for game, as meat was always more delicious than vegetables.
In addition, with the prescription, she only needs to pick a few herbs and be in the yard to boil the medicine. When the time comes, she will announce it, and when she recovers, no one will suspect anything.
"Sister, it will be dark soon."
Li Jianguo stopped her from leaving. When it gets dark, wild animals appear in the mountains. He heard that some people have seen blind bears. He didn't want anything to happen to his sister.
"It's okay. I'll find some meat for you. Eat more meat so you can grow stronger quickly. Then, Li Guozhu and dad won't dare to bully you anymore."
Li Sihui's expression was cold, but her words still revealed her concern for Li Jianguo.
"Sister, I will go with you and protect you."
Li Jianguo couldn't persuade his sister, nor did he dare to stop her. He found that after his sister hanged herself, her temper changed drastically and she became very violent. She would beat people to death at any time.
"You want to protect me? Forget it! Don't cause me any trouble. Just give me the backpack."
Li Sihui bluntly expressed her dislike for her brother. Li Jianguo lowered his head in disappointment, realizing that he was so useless in his sister's heart.
"Jianguo, sister is... afraid that you might be in danger."
I don't know what's going on? Seeing her brother's lonely back and depressed expression, Li Sihui felt sorry for the first time and blurted out something in a dry voice, but she was comforting him.
"Sister, I'm not afraid."
Upon hearing this, Li Jianguo looked at his sister excitedly. It turned out that his sister still cared about him and didn't despise him for being useless.
"Jianguo, we need someone to watch over our house. If we lose these things again, we will starve to death. Hide the noodles and flour and don't let Li Guozhu and Li Lannie take them away."
Li Sihui was unwilling to explain too much and found a plausible excuse to appease her brother to stay at home.
She walked toward the back of the mountain with her backpack. The villagers were all outside enjoying the cool air. When they saw her coming out, they whispered and said all kinds of things.
She was too lazy to listen or watch, and just lived her own life.
The mountain road has become familiar. The sun is gradually setting, and even the afterglow of the sunset is replaced by the coldness of the moon.
Even men don't dare to go into the mountains at this time, but she doesn't care at all.
With previous experience, she went straight into the depths of the mountains. The inner mountains at night were like a demon, with pairs of green eyes hidden in the dark woods.
