Yu Guoqiang was feeling proud of himself for scaring his two companions, and completely forgot that there was Yu Sui following behind him.
When he turned around, he saw a face half covered by hair.
This scared him so much that his hair stood up and he screamed "Ahhh" and chased after the two kids in front of him.
Yu Sui: “…”
Didn't you say Luo Suying was here? I was so cooperative, why were you still scared?
Yu Sui shrugged and was about to laugh when she suddenly remembered that Yu Qi had run away and she didn't know the way to her sister's house.
She then ran after him: "Hey, Yu Guoqiang, don't run, it's me, Yu Xiao, Yu Xiao, come back, it's me, your sister, don't run, you little bastards!"
After shouting several times, Yu Sui was almost sticking out her tongue like a dog. Yu Qi stopped when she heard Yu Sui's voice and pointed behind her and said, "Yu Guoqiang, that damn guy scared us to death. Isn't my sister there?"
Yu Guoqiang was running so hard that he almost got a stitch in the side. He turned around and saw Yu Sui chasing him. He pointed at her angrily and shouted, "Second sister, you are such a jerk! Why are you scaring us?"
Yu Sui: "Go away, then why did you scare my brother?"
Yu Guoqiang: "This is just a joke."
"You can play tricks on others, but others can't play tricks on you?"
"I..." Yu Guoqiang scratched his head and said nothing.
After all, she was the one who had to go to school with her younger brother every day, so Yu Sui decided to quit while she was ahead. She took out a few pieces of candy from her pocket and shared them among the three boys: "Eat some candy to calm your nerves."
There are too few opportunities to eat candy these days, so as soon as I take a bite of this candy, I feel happy.
The three boys looked at each other's embarrassed appearance as they ran out and laughed.
Yu Sui: "As the old saying goes, if you don't do anything wrong, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night. There are no ghosts in this world. And as long as we behave honestly and behave properly, even if ghosts come, they should be scared away by our righteousness. Why are you running away? Let's go."
Only then did the three boys dare to go together.
After walking another half a mile, Yu Qi pointed to a village and said to Yu Sui, "Second sister, my eldest sister lives in this village. Follow this road and it's the fifth house. There's a pomegranate tree in her yard. Do you remember it? Or do you want me to take you there?"
It's explained so clearly that you won't have any trouble finding it.
Yu Sui waved her hand: "I remember now. Go ahead and study hard."
Yu Qi spread out her hands: "Second sister, this candy is so delicious. Do you have any more? Give me some."
Yu Guoqiang and Chen Mingliang also spread their hands and said, "I want one too."
Yu Sui actually took out a few more candies for them and specifically warned them, "Yu Guoqiang, don't act silly anymore."
Yu Guoqiang took the candy and smiled: "No, I want to tell my mother! Second sister, you scared me!"
Yu Sui: "Then I'll scare your mother too!"
The three older children ran away laughing.
Yu Sui looked at their brisk backs and couldn't help but sigh, "It's great to be young." Then she walked towards her elder sister Yu Hemiao's village.
It was not yet fully light when Yu Sui walked into the village. The door of the first house was still tightly closed.
An old woman from the second household came out in her clothes. Seeing Yu Sui, she craned her neck to observe her, her cloudy eyes filled with question marks as she muttered softly, "Who is this?"
The third household had a collapsed adobe house, with the remaining rafters exposed outside, looking very desolate.
Yu Sui was imagining various situations for this family when the back door of the house opened and a man flashed out. He walked out quickly and came face to face with Yu Sui.
Yu Sui blinked her eyes and thought to herself: This country man looks quite handsome, but those two little mustaches are really ugly.
The other person also blinked and grinned stiffly: "Uh, sister-in-law? Why are you here?"
Sister-in-law?
Yu Sui rolled her eyes.
So, this is...brother-in-law?
But how did he come out at the third house?
Didn’t Yu Qi mention the fifth family?
Yu Sui was a little confused, so she just looked at the person without saying anything.
Apart from knowing that her brother-in-law's name was Jiang Yufeng, she knew nothing else.
Instead, the other party felt a little uncomfortable because of her silence: "Well, I, I'm borrowing something here. Come on, your sister must be up to make porridge. Let's go back quickly and ask her to boil an egg for you."
The man walked away hurriedly.
Yu Sui still stood there.
What's wrong?
The man's hair is all curled up, just like he just woke up from sleep. Oh, did he get up early in the morning and go to someone else's house to borrow something?
Are rural people so unpretentious?
Not really?
Moreover, if he wanted to borrow something, why did he come out of that door by himself, while the owner of the house was nowhere to be seen?
In this case, it's more like stealing, okay?
The man looked back and saw that Yu Sui didn't follow him, so he turned back and smiled:
"Come on, sister-in-law, how are Dad and Mom doing recently? Oh, I just went to the neighbor's house to borrow some money. Isn't Mid-Autumn Festival coming soon? I also thought I should buy something for your parents. Your sister is stingy and reluctant to spend money. If you see her later, don't tell her that I went to borrow money, okay? When I borrow the money, I will buy you some mahjong cakes, okay?"
No more running away.
There's definitely something wrong with this man.
The more you try to cover up, the more obvious it becomes. Who are you thinking of as a fool?
Yu Sui suddenly felt very disgusted with her brother-in-law.
But she hasn't even seen her sister yet, and she doesn't even know what kind of person her sister is. It would be foolish to say anything rashly.
Yu Sui curled the corners of her mouth as a response and followed the man.
When I walked to the two houses in front, I suddenly saw a pomegranate tree in a circle of bamboo fences. I also saw a woman who was at least seven or eight months pregnant, drawing water from the well in the yard.
An old woman's voice was shouting in the room:
"You said you put on a sad face as soon as you get up? Feng is such a grown-up. He can go out and play for a while if he wants. It's not like he goes out to play every day. Do you have to be so rude to me? Have you brought up the water? If you did, bring it in and cook porridge. Do you want to starve us to death? Really? We've already lost money, and you're still being pretentious. You hide in bed all the time and don't come out. I have to call you several times. You're just lazy. Do more work, so that you can be raised better..."
The man walking in front of Yu Sui, not sure if he wanted to stop the shouting or if he felt guilty, immediately shouted to the woman inside: "He Miao, look who's here! I'm going to pick up my sister-in-law!"
Yu Sui looked at the woman through the fence. Her delicate facial features did resemble Sun Yuying, but her face at this moment was not even as good as Sun Yuying's. She was very dark, thin and haggard.
Yu Sui quickly ran over to help carry the bucket: "Sister! Let me do it! Oh, it's so heavy, is there no one here? Let a pregnant woman carry so much water?"
The room immediately became quiet.
"I'll do it, I'll do it." The man just now also hurried over and carried the bucket with Yu Sui.
Yu Sui saw the man's hand reaching out and immediately dropped the bucket he had picked up: "Now, that's what you should do!"
The man's face twitched and he hurried to fetch some water.
