Chapter 19 Zhu Yu's Encounter

"You? Have the face to receive money and food?"

"Hehe...Look at you, what are your family members doing to see others like this?"

"Go away, who is with your own family!"

"Girl Yu, is this the attitude you should have towards your mother?!"

Zhu Yu slapped the ladle on the ground, pointed at the short-brown man in unrecognizable color and shouted: "She is your mother! You are her filial son!"

A burst of laughter erupted from the crowd, all complaining for Zhu Yu.

"Zhu Eryue, you'd better go back, don't block us from receiving food."

"Isn't that right? Last night, when I saw Yu Yatou carrying Huang Landlord onto the roller, the couple ran faster than anyone else."

"Hidden at home when fighting, shy when receiving food, bah!"

"Can you not come, I've finished eating half a stone of corn for my daughter."

Zhu Eryue and Wang Shi were not afraid of people's ridicule, and explained with a smile: "Our family's land is too small, it's not yet full moon, so we don't feel at ease leaving it at home."

"That's right, I'm not yet confinement here, so there's no wind. Yu'er will send us food and copper coins, and we'll leave right away, so I promise not to be an eyesore here."

"No way! I won't give you a single grain of rice! Get lost immediately!"

"It's been two days since I've seen you grow up, right? Let's see if I don't teach you a lesson today!"

Zhu Eryue saw that she was not getting in, so she rolled up her sleeves and yelled loudly, and was about to rush forward.

"What are you doing here?"

Shu Yingtong scolded coldly, and everyone silently stepped aside.

"who are they?"

Zhu Yu angrily glanced at the two people who greeted Shu Yingtong with smiles on their faces, "I don't know each other!"

"Young lady was so majestic yesterday. Finally cleaned up the damned yellow landlord!"

"Yes, yes, I am Zhu Yu's mother, and my maiden name is Wang."

Shu Yingtong's expression darkened and she took a step back, "Don't touch me."

What's wrong, just talk when you talk, and pretend to be acquainted by picking someone's sleeves.

"You are Zhu Yu's parents? Where were you last night?"

"Sleep." Several voices in unison answered for them.

"Huh? Biological?" Shu Yingtong raised her eyebrows and asked.

Before the couple could answer, the villagers rushed to tell Shu Yingtong what had happened to Zhu Yu.

Old Zhu's family is not poor, but Zhu Eryue's family is poor.

After Zhu Yu's younger uncle got married, the old Zhu's family separated.The old couple moved to the town with Zhu Yu's uncle.

The uncle also took his daughter-in-law to rent a house near the county school to study and earn living expenses.

Zhu Eryue, who won the ancestral house, was beautiful for a while, but she was not beautiful after a while.

It’s not that he’s in the commune anymore, the daughter-in-law is busy at home alone and gets tired and sick, so he has to go to work in the field.

Zhu Eryue, who was screaming from exhaustion, turned her mind on the eight-year-old Zhu Yu, who took her daughter with her when she was doing farm work and chopping firewood with her daughter.

I found that my daughter's strength is much stronger than that of her peers, and she can even use her strength to call her.

Zhu Yu is not a submissive person either, resistance will only lead to a violent beating and starvation, so he can only work honestly.

If you don't work, who will do it, dragging your sick mother?

No matter how strong Zhu Yu is, he is only an eight-year-old child. Both father and daughter are not good at farming, and they have no prospects in the fields.

Zhu Eryue has a thick skin, and often goes to the big brother's restaurant in the town to fight the autumn wind, and then goes home after eating alone, regardless of whether his wife and daughter are hungry or not.

In winter, we don't even have to dig wild vegetables, and the villagers can't see them, so they give them some food from time to time.The children in the family wore short clothes and gave them to her reluctantly.

There are many uses for the old clothes, and the peasant family will not give them up easily, but they just feel sorry for the child.

Zhu Yu is a straight-hearted person, who has won favors from others, carrying water and cleaning houses for others, and going up to the mountains to cut firewood to pay back favors when the mountains are closed due to heavy snow.

With a sweet mouth, he greets everyone with a smile.The little sisters in the village were bullied by wild boys, and they rolled up their sleeves and dared to single out a group of them.

The villagers liked her and taught her how to take care of the fields.With the growth of age, the life of Zhu Yu's family is getting better.

Zhu Yu's mother-in-law was ill for several years, and finally passed away.

Not two years after the funeral, Zhu Eryue caught up with Wang Shi, a young widow from the next village.Sold an acre of land at home and married Wang.

Wang's tongue-in-cheek coaxed Zhu Eryue into docility, and did nothing but cook two meals and wash the couple's clothes.

Zhu Yu was helpless, resentful and helpless, a household registration was overwhelming her.

There is no other reason, because her family still tenants the land of the yellow landlord and owes money to the yellow landlord's family.Illiterate, ignorant, a little girl, where can she go?
The uncle was frightened by the autumn wind, and quietly took his family to move elsewhere to make a living.

When the famine came, Wang, who had run out of food at home, was pregnant and couldn't bear hardships, so she urged Zhu Eryue to sell out every acre of the field.

What they get is not money, but food.

When there was nothing to sell, the couple turned their attention to Zhu Yu.

Knowing Zhuyu's strength, taking advantage of her hunger, her strength was not as good as before, and she was tied up in sleep and starved for three days, so she dared to ask someone to take her to Huang Landlord's house.

Give people with one hand and collect food with the other.

"Get out!" Shu Yingtong stared sharply at Zhu Eryue's face.

Zhu Eryue still wanted to slap, and with a snap, a whip slapped him in the face.

Dazed for a moment, he came back to his senses, covered his face and yelled, rolled on the ground and shouted like a pig: "Killer~"

Two consecutive whips came through the air, and the clothes on his body were ripped open, and blood dripped out.

"Is it unusual to kill people?"

Shu Yingtong's calm and unwavering voice sounded like falling into an ice cellar in Zhu Eryue's ears, and she almost forgot that she was the first to stand on the roller last night.

Ignoring the burning pain on his body, he got up and ran outside, and even Mrs. Wang forgot to call to go together.

Mrs. Wang saw that there was nothing to ask for today, so she walked out with a smirk, thinking in her heart that Zhu Eryue would go to the county to report the letter and get a reward!

"Tsk, be good when you're injured. I don't know how to use the whip with the other hand. Let's see what you can do when the wound breaks open."

Jing Yunyan whispered in Shu Yingtong's ear, causing the other party to snort, "Annoying."

"I healed your injury. Don't you have a little bit of disrespect for a healer?"

Jing Yunyan put on an aggrieved expression again, and leaned directly in front of her eyes, which was bound to clearly express the words "you are too good".

"understood."

Shu Yingtong pushed him away in frustration, and quickly stepped into the granary patio to check the distribution of money and grain.

He looked back at the number of people in line, estimated the amount of remaining grains, and looked at Zhu Yu with raised eyebrows.

"Why not enough. You can't count?"

There are not many shortages, but according to her situation, there will be two or three households that will not be able to send.Originally, some were reserved, but now it is not enough.

"Cough... that... are all folks... girl, please give me some more food..."

Zhu Yu didn't dare to look at Shu Yingtong holding the ladle, and lowered his head to stare at his feet that kept spinning around and grinding the ground.

"You are determined that I will not beat you, right?"

Zhu Yu raised her head happily, and smiled, "If beating me can give the folks an extra scoop of food, then beat me to death!" He stretched his neck and moved his face closer.

Shu Yingtong was so choked that he raised his hand and put it down again, and entered the last room with a dark face.Open the mechanism of the cellar, put a few bags of grain, tie it up and throw it down.

Seeing her coming out with a dark face, Zhu Yu left without even looking.

Looking at her back, she secretly smiled and bent her eyebrows. As long as the girl doesn't directly refuse, she agrees.

Carry food later!
