After the powerful minister was reborn, he married the delicate girl back home

It was already afternoon when she left Gu's house, and Li Jiaorong was still carrying her big bamboo basket and heading home in the scorching sun.

The Li family is an outsider and has no land in Gujia Village, so they originally made a living by going into the mountains to hunt. However, after his wife ran away, Hunter Li also failed to recover and never went into the mountains again. Instead, he started drinking heavily and spent all day long. He was so drunk that he was even taken into the casino by those so-called 'drinking buddies' and lost all his previous savings.

For this reason, Mrs. Gu Xu was often worried that Li Orion would give away her only daughter to the casino. After all, although Li Rongjiao was young, she was beautiful, which could not make her not afraid.

Fortunately, after losing all his money, Li Orion found that gambling was meaningless and drinking wine was better, so he never went there again. He still devoted himself to wine, even if he drank until his face turned red, his neck thickened, and he vomited red blood. There was nothing that could be done to stop him. He was going crazy. If he continued to drink like this, Orion Li might not have a few days to live.

Mrs. Gu Xu wholeheartedly hoped that Li Orion would die early, so that she could take Li Jiaorong into her own home and take care of her. No one would say that she was robbing the child, but Li Jiaorong was reluctant to let her father die, even though he was dissatisfied with her. Okay, but after all, he is his only blood relative in this world.

Li Jiaorong didn't want to, so Mrs. Gu Xu changed her original idea. She called Gu Dashan several times to come to persuade Li Orion, but it always happened. Every time he went back, Li Orion was drunk, and Mrs. Gu Xu also Stop thinking about it and let him go.

Besides, when Li Jiaorong walked to the door of her house, she found that the rope she used to tie the door was broken again. She sighed helplessly. No need to guess, her father must have come back.

It turned out that the door was good and had a bolt blocking it, but her father came back drunk one time and couldn't wait for someone to open the door, so he kicked it down. Li Jiorong had no money to call someone to repair it, and she didn't want to continue to trouble the Gu family. So she took a rope and tied it to the door. She just had to tie the rope when she went out. But her father was drunk and didn't know anything. He just tugged at it and the rope, which was already weak, was easily torn! This made Li Jiaorong very worried.

Although her family's poverty was known to people from all over the country, and even mice were reluctant to come, it still couldn't be without a door.

After lowering her head and observing for a while, Li Jiaorong was ready to tie her head with another rope. This time, she was going to use a thick hemp rope so that her father would not tear it off again.

Immediately afterwards, Li Jiaorong walked into the house, first put the bamboo basket on the ground, and then hurriedly ran to Li Orion's house to take a look.

Sure enough, a tall and thick man was lying on the bed sleeping at the moment. He was unshaven and his hair was messy and knotted. He was casually coiled on the top of his head. He looked shiny. Before he got closer, Li Jiaorong smelled a strong smell of alcohol. , which gave her a headache and a little dizziness.

Holding back her nausea, Li Jiaorong filled a basin of water, looked at the white handkerchief that Sister-in-law Gu had embroidered for her, and felt a little reluctant to part with it. She turned around and took one from the house, and then carried the basin to Li Orion's side. , dipped the handkerchief in water, and wiped it carefully for him. Because she was afraid of hurting her father, Li Jiaorong did not dare to use too much force, but even so, a basin of clear water finally became muddy.

Li Jiaorong looked at the basin of pitch-black water. She didn't dislike it, but was a little shocked. Did she think her father was drunk and fell into the soil this time?

She really couldn't believe that someone could be so dirty, and this person was actually her father. Fortunately, she followed her mother, loved to be clean, and bathed every day, so she wouldn't be as dirty as her father. .

Speaking of her mother, Li Jiaorong felt a little sad because many people in the village said that her mother ran away and no longer wanted her and her father. However, Li Jiaorong did not believe this statement because she could not accept that her mother did not want her. Her childhood experiences made her sensitive and fragile. She didn't want to be left behind, so she kept deceiving herself that her mother was dead, not running away.

Thinking of these unhappy pasts, Li Rongjiao felt a little down, and then she patted her cheek to encourage herself to cheer up. After all, she hadn't done any work at home yet?

Although the Li family did not have land, the yard was big enough. Gu Dashan helped Li Rongjiao dig out a small acre of land. Gu Xu gave her some vegetable seeds and chicken seedlings, and taught her how to grow vegetables and raise chickens. In addition to the usual neighbors and the Gu family Li Rongjiao relied on these to get by.

Sometimes she would go into the mountains with Gu Xu's group to pick wild vegetables and fungus... all the things she got were sold in the town. Although the money was not much, if she saved more, it would be enough to buy a small bag of rice and noodles. In addition, Li Orion usually doesn't come back, so she, a little girl, can survive without eating much.

The innocent little girl had never left Gujia Village until she was thirteen years old. She didn't know the prices of rice, flour, grain and oil, and she didn't know that without the help of the Gu family, she would have died of hunger long ago.

Li Rongjiao was busy in the yard when Li Orion suddenly woke up. He stood up tremblingly, but his feet failed to stand firm. He fell heavily to the ground, still landing on his face, and made a huge 'bang'.

Li Jiaorong was startled when she heard the noise, and quickly ran into the house to check, only to find that her father had fallen to the ground, with his limbs spread out, which was a bit funny.

The daughter was so anxious at the moment that she couldn't even think of smiling. She quickly leaned down and tried to help him up.

But Li Rongjiao was so petite, how could she support the tall and tall Li Orion? After struggling for a long time, she couldn't even lift her arms. Li Rongjiao became even more anxious, tears streaming down her face, for fear that her father would fall out.

In her haste, she also forgot what Li Orion had said before, crying very loudly and feeling at a loss.

Li Orion was woken up by her crying, he picked his ears impatiently, then picked up Li Jiaorong's collar and cursed angrily: "Cry, cry, cry, you know how to cry, didn't you see that I am sleeping? Don’t you like to go to the Gu family? Go to the Gu family and cry.”

Li Jiaorong was frightened by the scolding and did not dare to continue crying. She could only sob quietly.

Li Orion was still drunk. He didn't care whether this person was his biological daughter or not. He just felt extremely irritated. He simply picked her up and threw her out the door. He said sternly: "Don't come in, or let me hear you cry again." , I’ll beat you to death.”

Li Rongjiao didn't dare to say anything and nodded subconsciously. Then Li Orion closed the door of the back room, leaving Li Rongjiao alone in the yard.

The thirteen-year-old girl was very afraid of her father and did not dare to enter the house or cry loudly.

Li Rongjiao didn't understand why her father hated her so much, but she still longed for her. When would her father be nice to her again?

The innocent heart of a child is very pure, and the moment when the purity disappears, it also represents the transformation of a child into an adult. The current Li Rongjiao is still a child at heart, perhaps because she has met the Gu family's loving mother, filial piety, and respectful brothers and sisters... …She still has expectations and fantasies about her relatives.

She was a little aggrieved, but in the end she still felt that she was in the wrong. She cried loudly and disturbed her father to sleep. Li Rongjiao began to blame herself again. Her mood became even lower, so she simply sat at the door with her back against Li Orion's tightly closed door. door, burying her face between her knees, sobbing softly.

Her voice was very small, and only her shoulders that kept shaking indicated that she was crying.
