small farm girl in pastoral space

Chapter 26 Cuixiang
The lotus pond that Mu Qiu asked someone to dig is full of lotus flowers in this season, thanks to the help of space water, it is possible to see such a beautiful scenery in such a short period of time.There are fish in the lotus pond, which are specially supplied to Tianxianglou.Mu Qiu always secretly catches the fish in the space and puts them in the pond, so as not to go to the river to fish for them.

Two days ago, she suddenly thought of those uneaten shrimps. Today, she deliberately caught some from the space and planned to put them in the pond.These shrimps all grow very large, completely different from wild river shrimps.

After all, they are all shareholders of Tianxiangju, and Mu Qiu feels that he still has to contribute, and he can't just take money and not work!After putting these prawns back in the lotus pond, she plans to try a dish of fried river prawns.If the taste is good, you can recommend this dish to Shopkeeper Wu.

The area of ​​the lotus pond is not very large, and the green lotus leaves and pink lotus flowers are crowded together, and the green seems to overflow.Carrying half a bucket of shrimp, Mu Qiu carefully walked on the field ridge, and arrived soon.

"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..." She heard a faint cry, and the sound became clearer as she approached the lotus pond.

Mu Qiu followed the voice to find it, and finally found a person sitting by the lotus pond.

"Cuixiang? What's wrong with you?" Mu Qiu's sudden sound startled her, Cuixiang raised her head suddenly, and saw that it was Mu Qiu who lowered her head again.

"Why are you sitting here alone crying in such heat?" Cuixiang shook her head and did not speak.

Looking at the bruises on her face and hands, and thinking of her patriarchal grandma, Mu Qiu quickly understood what was going on.During this time, Cuixiang's father, Liu Quanfu, seems to have gone to work in the county. Although her mother is at home, Zhou Yulian can't speak in front of the old lady on weekdays.

The two brothers Liu Quanfu and Liu Quanfu lived under the same roof, and the old lady ordered Zhou Yulian to do any dirty work in the family. The eldest daughter-in-law, Li Yanmei, was also a bully because she gave birth to a son for the Liu family.The mother-in-law couldn't protect herself and didn't dare to resist, Cuixiang would be beaten if she did anything wrong.

Everyone in the village knows who the two elders in their family are. Although they sympathize with Cuixiang's life, they know that each family sweeps the snow in front of their own doors, and they don't care about the frost on others.

It's not the first time Mu Qiu saw her cry alone. Although they are about the same age, but have experienced different lives, Mu Qiu sighed: "Your grandma beat you again? Where's Aunt Yulian?"

Cuixiang raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, and replied, "My mother has gone to the ground."

"Okay, don't cry, it's so hot that you'll suffer from heatstroke if you sit here. Go! Go to my house!"

Mu Qiu carried the empty wooden barrel and reached out to pick a few lotus flowers on the edge of the lotus pond: "I'll go back and cook something delicious for you."

Cuixiang lowered her head and didn't answer, Mu Qiu put the lotus in the bucket, took her with one free hand, and finally brought her back.

The lunch was made by Mu Qiu himself, one serving of fried river prawns and fried lotus flowers, one serving of seasonal vegetables and two meat dishes.The dining atmosphere was very harmonious, and only Cuixiang felt embarrassed.Li Shi and Liu Shi persuaded her to eat more, and put a lot of meat in her bowl.

Unexpectedly, she cried suddenly while eating, and the tears fell down in big drops.Mu Qiu didn't know how to comfort her, so he patted her on the back and said, "Don't cry, it's important to fill your stomach first. If you encounter any unhappy things in the future, you can come to me!"

"Thank you, sister Qiu."

"Okay, let's eat quickly!" Seeing that she stopped crying, Mu Qiu finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that she is the last person to comfort others.

After dinner, Cuixiang stayed at Mu Qiu's house for a long time, but no one came to look for her. Mu Qiu suddenly realized that her life might be worse than she imagined.
