Chapter 167
This statue is not the kind old man as imagined, but a young man with a folding fan in his hand. It doesn't look like an earth temple, but it looks like some people who have made outstanding contributions to the place have been enshrined. For a thought or something.

The statue was carved directly from a single piece of stone, and it was quite charming. Seeing that the lake should not be a few steps away, he ran two quick steps, went to the lake to fetch two buckets of water, and tore off a piece of paper. Sleeves, dipped in the bucket, wiped the statue.

Then he made a lump of mud next to him, rebuilt the dilapidated temple, and found some wood to make the roof. It has been half an hour since he finished all this. Feel at ease, he overestimated his courage, without the help of the engine, obviously he is not a brave person.

Jiang Yu went to the lake to wash his hands, fetched two more buckets of water, and was about to go back, when a voice suddenly came from his ears when the roadside temple was ruined.

"Young man, if you need anything, you can come here and find me."

"Who!"

Jiang Yu glanced left and right, but there was no one there. He lowered his head and glanced at the statue at his feet, and suddenly felt that it seemed to come alive. Although Jiang Yu hoped to build a temple to accumulate blessings for himself, he really didn't want this thing to talk. This thing came alive under his nose, and he felt a little panicked.

He picked up the breath of water, ran all the way, smeared oil on his feet, disappeared between the mountains and forests, and when he returned to the foot of Tianshan, the two buckets of water had been sprinkled nearly halfway, and he swore that he would never go that way again , It's too evil.

Although there is not much water left, it is more than enough to irrigate his few seedlings. I watered those few seedlings heavily, and then sprinkled the remaining water evenly on the field. When he was watering, The others all looked at him in surprise.

"Hey, look, the six sons have become more diligent, have you taken a fancy to some girl?"

"Don't tell me, Liu Zi is really handsome. Why didn't he feel that way before? It's just that he's a bit lazy. If this problem gets better in the future, I'll marry my daughter to him."

"You're about to get over it, you, just your girl's big buck teeth, are you worthy of others!"

Jiang Yu felt very uncomfortable listening to these people's comments on him. After putting the barrel back, he went back to the village. Their village was some ordinary adobe houses, surrounded by the huge earthen building, and the earthen building was full of people. It has more than 100 households, just like an inn.

Most of the rooms on the first floor are the landlord Chen's. Usually, no one is allowed to enter except the Chen family. It should be said that this earth building belongs to the Chen family, and everyone else only enjoys the right of residence.

Walking into the earth building, Jiang Yu saw an old woman kneeling in front of the main hall, crying.

"It's my fault, I didn't mean to."

Just as Jiang Yu wanted to go over to have a look, he was stopped by someone, a servant of the Chen family. They were all dressed in the same uniform. He also learned part of the situation here during the previous gossip in the field.

The servants of the Chen family were different from them, they were all completely sold to the landlord's family. Although they were better dressed and fed than them, they also lost their freedom.

Generally, no one would choose to sell themselves completely unless forced to.

After the servant stopped Jiang Yu, he said.

"Mother Wu sprinkled the soup on the young master just now, it was still hot and burned the young master, the master asked her to kneel down, don't go there and make yourself uncomfortable!"

Jiang Yu nodded and did not reply. He returned to his room, poked holes in the window paper, and began to observe the earthen building. He observed until night and found nothing unusual. They were all very ordinary humans.

Except for the constant coughing in the main hall, the tulou is quite quiet during the day. Mama Wu knelt for a whole afternoon. At night, Jiang Yu saw a young girl coming back from outside the tulou. She could only see a figure from her back. .

She straddled a basket in her hand. When she saw Wu Ma, she dropped the basket in her hand and ran up. Jiang Yu opened the door and stood on the aisle. After a closer look, the basket was filled with ordinary embroidery items. It's quite exquisite.

Jiang Yu listened intently, wanting to see how the landlord would embarrass the mother and daughter. Although the landlord was not particularly mean, there was only one person he could not touch, that is, his son, who was sick and took care of his servants every year. If they are replaced, they will either be beaten to death or expelled from the village, and they will fend for themselves. In this wilderness, it is not much different from being dead.

Therefore, when it comes to his son, Chen Landlord can be said to be quite ruthless, and these people should have been mentally prepared when they sold themselves into the Chen family. Once they sell themselves, they will have no human rights at all.

The woman also knelt on the ground and hugged Mama Wu.

"Mom, what's wrong with you, why are you kneeling here?"

"Mother made a mistake, you go home first, don't worry about Mother, cook something for yourself tonight."

The girl was also stubborn, she knelt down and crawled two steps forward, shouting loudly, unexpectedly, she actually called out Master Chen, a middle-aged man with hairy temples wearing a hat, with a serious expression on his face.

When the woman saw Master Chen, she kowtowed immediately.

"Master Chen, please let my mother go, she is too old to take it!"

Jiang Yu originally thought that the old man would continue to embarrass the two women, but unexpectedly he waved his hand to wake Mama Wu up, and let her go home to cook for the children. This was a bit different from what Jiang Yu heard in the field Same.

Mr. Chen turned and went back to the house. The woman helped Mama Wu to stand up. The two of them turned around and prepared to go home. After seeing the woman's face clearly, Jiang Yu stepped back abruptly and hit the wall behind him with a bang. That face is the embroidered lady.

It's just that this face is still intact, without any scars, with a delicate face and a graceful figure, unlike the one I saw her before.

"Embroidery. Embroidery lady?"

Jiang Yu couldn't believe that the woman under his feet was Xiu Niang, because he was afraid when he didn't see her, or this world was the illusion of Xiu Niang during her lifetime?
He turned over and went downstairs, and the two had just entered the stairs.

"Well, wait a minute."

Wu Ma and Xiu Niang turned their heads together and looked at him. Jiang Yu was also staring at Xiu Niang carefully. As a result, Xiu Niang blushed and hid behind Wu Ma after being looked at twice more by him. Jiang Yu was a little dazed. He would never forget the face, and when he thought about it carefully, the voice of this woman was no different from the voice of Xiu Niang before.

"Liuzi, what's the matter? I need to mend clothes. Send it to our house later."

Jiang Yu glanced at his arm, and then remembered that he had torn off a sleeve of his clothes. It was really inappropriate to stare at a girl like this. He moved his eyes away and groaned twice.
