Chapter 25 Song Goddess

When Aunt Wu heard that Li Shishi mentioned Goddess Song, she was surprised and contemptuous: "What are you asking her for? This old lady has a bad reputation. She drinks dog urine all day long and doesn't know where she is. What kind of witch is she? It's amazing, if you want me to say it, it's almost like a magic stick."

Li Shishi yelled at Aunt Wu when she heard the words, then told Wanmiao to take good care of her sister, and then signaled Aunt Wu to go outside to talk.

Aunt Wu looked at the mysterious Li Shishi, although she didn't understand what he meant, she still followed her out.

Li Shishi followed Aunt Wu to another room, and dragged her to sit on the eaves of the kang.

"Why are you so mysterious, what happened?"

Li Shishi didn't want to hide it from Aunt Wu, so she told the truth: "Wanran got hurt today, but I didn't tell you why. Although it was caused by children playing around and not paying attention to the injury, Wanmiao told me something today , this really reminded me."

"What's the matter?" Aunt Wu asked
"Today Wanmiao told me that Wanran was injured because a child from an unknown family called me a goblin. That's why Wanran pushed him. In fact, it's normal for children to get hurt when they fight, but When I heard what the kid said, I realized that if he hadn't followed the example of the adults, he wouldn't have dared to say that."

"You said you were a goblin?" Aunt Wu was a little surprised, but then she nodded and said, "Actually, I didn't hide it from you. Didn't the old lady invite Goddess Song to go to the Zhao family for the incident you caused? But anyone with a discerning eye knows that you are fine. It’s just that they don’t know how the news spread, and the folks in this village usually keep their heads down and don’t look up. It’s a bad influence.”

"Yes." Li Shishi took the words: "It is precisely because I know about this that I want to ask you about Goddess Song. After all, you have to tie the bell to untie the bell. It doesn't matter who told it or how it was told. It's tight, but it will definitely become a problem if it is not resolved."

After hearing this, Aunt Wu pondered for a while, then nodded and said: "You are right, after all, you have come out of Zhao's house now, no matter what the reason is, it's still good or bad."

"Although there is nothing between us, but you still have two children, and you will have to live in the village in the future. Goddess Song and I didn't deal with each other in the early years. Before, there was a sudden thunder in the blue sky when a pregnant woman was giving birth."

Aunt Wu said, clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, "Actually, it's nothing, but if she insists on saying that it was a calamity for the mother to give birth. In addition, she is used to drinking, and she is delusional." Yes, she likes to talk nonsense, and as a result, the news spread throughout the village, and then the daughter-in-law jumped into the river in anger."

Then she sighed and said, "Fortunately, the person was rescued. But it was linked to me being unlucky too. It must be said that I was unlucky and followed dirty things. I was so angry that I had a fight with her and ended up in trouble."

After listening to Aunt Wu's account of the cause and effect, Li Shishi finally understood that it was likely that this story about herself was passed on by the Goddess Song.

In ancient times, information was underdeveloped, and once something beyond the knowledge of the common people occurred, most of it would be attributed to the gods or ghosts.

In addition, the Zhao family provoked Mrs. Song before, and the people who didn't know the truth listened to other people's embellished rumors, and this non-existent thing just happened.

Aunt Wu saw that Li Shishi didn't speak, she seemed to have something on her mind, so she asked: "Why, did you remember what came?"

Li Shishi came back to her senses, looked at Aunt Wu and grinned: "It's okay, it's not a big deal, thanks to your presence today, I know how this rumor spread. I'm afraid I can't explain it clearly even if I open my mouth, I think this Goddess Song has some ability in her body, if not, she wouldn't pass it on and even the children would know about it."

Aunt Wu nodded: "There is nothing wrong with what you said. Although I don't want to see her, she has dealt with many things in the village over the years. Whether it is a child's convulsion or an adult's bewitching, as long as she goes Nine can be done well, if there is no theory of ghosts and gods, I probably don't believe it. But although she is famous in the village, because she is used to drinking and gambling, she owes a lot of debts outside, although everyone is kind on the surface Yes, but there is no one thinking of her behind her back."

Li Shishi was thoughtful when she heard this, and it seemed that if she wanted to solve the troubles in front of her, she would inevitably have to deal with Goddess Song.

The two chatted for a while, and then Aunt Wu remembered that she came here today to deliver something, but after talking for a long time, she almost forgot what was going on.

"By the way, I'm here today. I thought it was inconvenient for you mothers who are newcomers, and you couldn't bring out any good food at home. It happened that Tiansheng came back from town today and bought some plums. I wanted to bring you some plums." It’s also good to come to the Teeth Ceremony.”

Li Shishi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that Aunt Wu came in carrying a basket, but at that time she was only thinking about asking her about Goddess Song, and ignored the things she was holding.

Immediately, I felt a little embarrassed: "Look, I just moved here a few days ago, and I always trouble you. You brought me plums again. How dare you tell me to accept them."

"Hey, what are you doing here? They're just some plums. It's not worth much, and you're so polite." Aunt Wu smiled and patted Li Shishi lightly, and said, "Okay, it's getting late, I should go back too."

As she said that, she got up and went out. Li Shishi remembered that the egg custard was still hot in the kitchen, so she asked Aunt Wu to take it home to taste whatever she said.

Aunt Wu couldn't resist, so she had to take it.

Before leaving, Li Shishi grabbed some sun-dried mother-in-law Ding and asked Aunt Wu to go back and soak in water to drink.

This sent people out the door.

When they entered the room, the two children fell asleep on the table.

Li Shishi looked at the small basket of plums placed at the door, her heart warmed, and she thought that she should prepare something in return.

With that said, it was already dark.

After setting up the two children, she didn't feel sleepy at all, so she thought about going outside to tidy up the bamboo strips and weave baskets.

Sitting outside the courtyard, breezy.

She was weaving baskets with bamboo strips in her hand and looking at the stars in the sky, recalling what Aunt Wu said to herself today.

Now even if he left the Zhao family, he didn't have to worry about those trivial things anymore.But in the end, it will not be so smooth to bring the children out to live.

It seems that I have to think of another way out, imitating Meng Mu's three moves, after all, I will stay here for a lifetime to be strong.

When she went to the town before, she also got a general understanding of the food sold in the ancient market.

There is an old saying that food is the paramount necessity of the people. If we put effort into eating, will it be a new way out?
While thinking, she continued to weave the basket in her hand.

Seeing that most of the weaving was done, Wanmiao, who was up at night, saw her mother who was still busy, she stood at the door rubbing her eyes and asked, "Mother still not sleeping?"

Li Shishi came back to her senses and turned to look at Wan Miao, took advantage of the situation and put down the half-woven basket in her hand, and said with a smile, "I'm going to sleep now."

Then she got up and followed Wanmiao into the house.
