On the Su family's side, Su's father and mother were still frightened by what happened today, so they told their two sons to protect Erhe more in the future. Although they were from the same village and had quarrels from time to time, it was too bad when it escalated to this level.
"How about we discuss with the He family and arrange the marriage between He Zheng and Er He as soon as possible?"
During the chat time after work at night, Su's mother suddenly said something shocking.
At this time, Su Erhe was not feeling well, her lower abdomen felt heavy, and she was afraid that her period was coming. When she heard what her mother said, she became completely depressed.
"Mom, don't be so anxious. Big brother hasn't gotten married yet."
When this matter was mentioned, Su's mother scolded Sun Hongying in her heart again. Everything was arranged well. First, the eldest son would get married, and then the daughter would get married, but now it turned out like this.
"Okay, aren't you tired after a day's work? Let's talk about this after we're done with this." Father Su had been carrying rice for a whole day, his shoulders ached and his legs were weak. He was very tired.
Mother Su thought about it and thought that this was the truth. She decided to wait until the autumn harvest was over before she could talk about it. She was about to go back to her room when she felt a bulging bag in her pocket. "Oh, Erhe, that hundred yuan is still with me. You can keep it. It can be used to add to your dowry in the future, or as pocket money."
Su Erhe already had more than a hundred dollars in her small treasury, so she didn't plan to take the money. "Mom, you keep it."
Mother Su thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll save it for you and let you take it to your in-laws' house when you get married."
Su's mother is not a corrupt person. Unlike some parents who accept all the gifts from the man and don't even prepare a dowry, they will have more money in their hands, but it will be difficult for their daughter to live in her husband's family. They are all children raised in the same way. When a son gets married, he needs a betrothal gift, and when a daughter gets married, she must have a dowry. She cannot treat her daughter unfairly.
Su Erhe had lived in this house for half a month, so he naturally understood Su's mother's character. Although she was a little stingy and occasionally had an impulsive and bad temper, she was not biased and took good care of the family.
"By the way, Mom, I think my period is coming. Do you have a menstrual pad?"
This was the pain that Su Erhe could not bear. There were no sanitary napkins or tampons at this time, only menstrual belts. She had just searched the house and found two yellowed and washed ones. Although there was no peculiar smell, she really... couldn't bring herself to use them!
It's so devastating.
"I only have used ones. Do you want one?" Su's mother pretended to go to the room to get it. She always washed it clean and it was not dirty.
Su Erhe quickly refused, "No need!"
Has this thing been used by someone else?
It would be better to just slit her throat with a knife and give her a quick death!
At night, the feeling of menstruation became stronger and stronger. Suerhe did not dare to delay any longer. This was no joke. If she did not prepare herself, she would soon end up in a bloody mess, which would be a disgrace to the Pacific Ocean.
So the next day, Su Erhe didn't care about food security at all. She got on her bicycle and prepared to go to the county town. Her mother stopped her and said, "I used the cloth you gave me to sew two pairs of shoes for you. This white cotton cloth is soft and comfortable to use. When you go to the county town, see if you can buy some cotton to stuff in the middle. It will absorb moisture better."
Su Erhe took the two things, his hands were shaking and his heart was bleeding.
This thing really is...
Just go ahead with your eyes closed.
"Okay, I got it. I'll be back soon." She must get more cotton and change it frequently, otherwise she was really afraid that too much would leak out.
"Don't worry about this little time. Ride slowly."
"knew!"
Having said that, the person had already ridden away on his bicycle.
Su's mother was not so worried anymore. After these incidents, she knew that her daughter was not the type to suffer any loss, and it would not be good for her to impose too many restrictions on her.
Here, the Su family finished their breakfast, packed up, and went to the fields with their tools.
After a while, the Zhu family also came over. Zhu Xing's face and eyes were swollen. She followed Zhu's father and mother with her head down. It was obvious that she was beaten after returning home, and the beating was not light. She didn't want to be seen, so she covered her face with her hair. However, no one saw Zhu Lai go to the field. Most likely, Zhu's father and mother felt sorry for their son and let him rest at home.
When it was time to go to work, several young people who had come from the county town yesterday also arrived.
The only ones I didn't see were Lu Zhou and Du Ruoyun.
He Zheng walked around, came over and asked Su Xiatian, "Where's your sister?"
Su Xiatian said, "She went to the county town. It seems she has something to do. I wonder if she will bring me some big white flour and meat buns to eat."
The meat buns were so fragrant and delicious, Su Xiatian licked the corner of his mouth.
Su Erhe actually bought some big white flour and meat buns. She still had a lot of food coupons in her hands. Thinking about the hard work of autumn harvest, she bought twenty white flour and meat buns at once. When she threw them into the space, there were forty of them, enough for her family to eat for a while.
She originally wanted to buy cotton from Zou Zhou, but Zou Zhou was off work today, so she bought cotton from someone else. She then went to the grocery store and weighed two pounds of brown sugar. After thinking about it, she also ordered a bag of white flour. This way, she could make meat buns herself in the future without having to buy them every time.
After coming out of the grocery store, seeing that it was still early, she decided to go to the black market again.
She was quite disappointed that she didn't meet Zou Zhou this time. She originally wanted to ask Zou Zhou two things. One was whether there was any movement from the Du family. She always felt that Du's mother was a potential danger. The other was to inquire about the underground trading market.
It was not the kind of black market she usually went to. There were only small transactions there, exchanging a pound of meat for a few pounds of rice. She wanted the kind that could do bulk transactions. After the autumn harvest was over, she would definitely have a large amount of food in her space. She wanted to sell this batch of food, so she needed a buyer who could consume such a large amount of food.
And this person must be reliable, otherwise such a large amount of food would be enough for her to eat peanuts and die.
Since he hadn't met anyone yet, Suerhe was not in a hurry. After all, the autumn harvest had not yet ended and the grain had not yet been collected.
"Girl," she said, arriving at the black market. Unexpectedly, the woman who had bought meat floss from her before saw her. "I've finally been waiting for you. Do you still have that meat floss?"
Su Erhe hasn't made pork floss recently, and there are about a pound or two left in the space. "There are still some."
"Then give me another pound."
The old lady handed over the money. Su Erhe took out a bag of meat floss, thought for a moment, and gave the old lady two eggs. "Take these too. Last time you said someone in your family was sick. These two eggs are for the patient."
She was thinking that someone in the old lady's family was sick and needed to see a doctor and buy medicine, as well as meat floss and other things. The old lady had a hard time and she couldn't help much. She didn't have the guts to give the money away for free, so she just gave the old lady two eggs.
It's a token of her appreciation.
The old lady looked at her in surprise.
“Run—”
At this time, someone shouted and several people wearing red armbands came over. More than a dozen people here fled in all directions.
"Let's go."
Su Erhe knew something was wrong and ran away. Strangely enough, these people didn't chase anyone else but chased her. Hearing the hurried footsteps, Su Erhe knew something was wrong. She thought quickly and put all her things into the space, leaving only two white flour buns in her bag.
"Walk!"
When passing through an alley, someone suddenly pulled her. Suerhe was pulled over with great force. Before she could stand firmly, someone pushed her from behind. As she fell forward, she heard someone shouting behind her.
"Who are you? How dare you hinder us? Get out of the way... Do you dare to hit me?"
Then there was the sound of punches and kicks.
Su Erhe heard something was wrong and turned around to look, only to see He Zheng blocking the alley alone. He was tall and blocked the entrance of the alley, blocking several people in red armbands outside.
"Still standing there," He Zheng's face twisted in anxiety when he saw her standing there without moving. He shouted at her, "Run!"
