Chapter 61 Peeking
"Have you ever thought about it? Your parents are already old, and they will rely on you to support the family in the future. What will they do if your body collapses? What about your younger siblings?"

Zhu Zhicheng was a little at a loss. Su Qian was obviously much younger than him, but now she was like a strict sister, criticizing him and teaching him, but he didn't even feel disgusted in his heart.

Susie said seriously: "I'm really not scaring you, don't you look in the mirror yourself? You are too thin, your cheeks are sunken in."

Zhu Zhicheng lowered his head slowly, "I, I really can't help it."

Susie shook her head, "I've never seen anyone treat yourself like you do, you don't love yourself too much, you treat yourself too badly, it's simply masochistic!"

"If your parents know that the money you sent home was obtained by selling your blood, will they feel at ease?"

She pointed to the fish soup on the table, "Eat it quickly, it will become fishy after a while."

She opened the door and was about to go out, then suddenly said: "If you don't mind, you can have dinner with us in the future and just pay some rations."

From what she's seen these days, Zhu Zhicheng is a good character. The last time he took the initiative to help her move the furniture, he ate the worst food himself, but he never coveted other people's food.

Susie went out.

Zhu Zhicheng stood there in a daze, looking at the bowl of fish soup, and suddenly cried with his head in his arms.

A muffled whimper echoed through the room.

It has been seven years since he went to the countryside. In order to save travel expenses, he has not returned home for seven years. His parents have never asked him where the money comes from. Said to ask for money.

Susie was the first to care about him.

He was also the first to say that he treated himself badly.

He originally regarded himself as a working machine, and he felt that his life would just go on like this day after day.

But today, he realized that there are still people in this world who care about him.

His tears fell drop by drop into the fish soup, he sat down suddenly, picked up the chopsticks, and ate with tears.

The fish soup was boiling hot, warming his heart.

When Su Qian returned to the kitchen, she met Xu Zhiqiang's resentful eyes.

He thought the bowl of fish soup just now was for him, but in the end, Susie walked past him with the fish soup.

Fortunately, he reacted slowly and didn't reach out to pick it up, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.

Su Qian naturally understood the meaning in Xu Zhiqiang's eyes, she turned her head, hum, so she won't give it to him.

She likes the old lady very much now, and she hates Xue even more. Even if the old lady doesn't understand Xue's actions, so what, she just helps relatives and doesn't care.

Yu Xue wouldn't even give her fish soup to the dogs.

After eating and packing up, Susie went back to the room to read her junior high school math book.

Tian Xiaohui earnestly learned how to knit sweaters from Qin Man.

Zhao Tingting was reading the "Barefoot Doctor's Handbook".

When it was almost nine o'clock, Susie put down her book, stood up and stretched herself, "I'm going to take a shower."

She went to the closet to get clothes, Tian Xiaohui shook her head, "Are you taking a shower again? Didn't you just wash it the day before yesterday?"

Susie smiled helplessly. According to her previous habits, she had to take a bath every day. After coming here, taking a bath was really troublesome.

To draw water to boil water, but also to clean the tub.

The key point is that Yuan Gang Qiao picked up buckets of water for the water, and they cut the firewood for the water from the mountains.

One more bath for her means that they have to pay a lot of labor.

Most of the time, Susie endured it and washed it every two or three days, but today she was sweating after climbing the mountain, so it was really uncomfortable not to wash.

She packed her clothes and went to the kitchen with the bucket.

The water in the urn was still hot, so Susie scooped it out, mixed it with cold water, and dragged the tub to the back door.

There is a drainage ditch on the side of the back door, which is convenient for pouring water.

After doing all this, she closed the front and rear doors, and then twisted the twister of the kerosene lamp, and the light went out.

Susie just started to take off her clothes, then squatted in the tub to take a bath.

After just washing for a while, Susie suddenly heard a knock at the back door.

She turned her head vigilantly just in time to see the back door move, she quickly picked up the towel to cover her chest, and shouted, "Who's there!"

Susie wasn't sure if it was a human or a small animal outside.

In short, it will not be the wind, and there will be no wind today.

Qiao Mu heard Susie's voice from next door, and ran out quickly.

He stood at the door of the kitchen and asked eagerly, "What's wrong?"

Susie said quickly, "Check to see if there is anyone at the back door."

As soon as the words were finished, there was a sound of footsteps outside the back door, and they gradually ran away.

Susie was sure now that there was a real person.

Qiao Mu quickly chased after him.

Yuan Gang and Zhu Zhicheng moved a little slower than Qiao Mu, and also came out of the house to catch up.

Susie collected herself and thought about it. She guessed that the person outside made the noise just now because she was lying on the door panel, and she probably didn't see anything.

Because the front and back doors of the stove house were cracked, Susie felt insecure, and she was very cautious every time she took a bath, and she took off her clothes only after the lights were turned off.

Today, she also turned off the kerosene lamp before she began to undress. It took her a while to get used to it before she could see clearly.

Thinking about it this way, Susie felt that she wasn't being taken advantage of by others, and she felt at ease. After taking a bath in a hurry, she got dressed and poured water before she came out.

Chen Changqing and the others were playing cards again in their room, it was very lively, probably they didn't hear anything just now.

Zhao Tingting's room was very quiet, and the room was farthest from the stove, so they couldn't hear it.

Susie went back to the house with the bucket, Tian Xiaohui saw her come in and stood up, "I'm going to brush my teeth after you finish washing."

Susie didn't say anything about what happened just now. She put away her things and went to the yard to look around, feeling a little worried. Qiao Mu and the others should have chased to the mountain behind.

The road on the mountain is not easy to walk, and it is getting dark again. If you fall, you will be in trouble.

Just when he was worried, Zhu Zhicheng came around from behind, and Su Xi hurried up to meet him, "What's the matter? Did you catch anyone?"

Zhu Zhicheng nodded, "I caught it, Qiao Mu told you to come over and see what you want to do with it."

Susie followed Zhu Zhicheng up the mountain from the backyard.

After walking almost two miles, I heard ghosts crying and howling wolves not far away, "Stop beating, please stop beating, I really didn't see it."

Su Qian and Zhu Zhicheng walked over quickly, and saw Qiao Mu kicking people on the ground crazily as if desperate for his life.

Yuan Gang said, "Susie is here."

Only then did Qiao Mu stop his movements, the moonlight poured down from the gaps in the leaves, and the mottled moon shadows shone on his face, his expression was a little scary.

Susie's eyes flicked across his face, and she looked down. The face on the ground was swollen and tall. She probably wouldn't recognize his mother when he came, so naturally she couldn't recognize him either, "Who is it?"

Qiao Mu's voice was cold, "Yang Laosan."
