Soul Travel: I was bought by the fierce man in the village to farm

At dawn, the village was still quiet and no one was awake. There was a knock on the door of her courtyard.

Mao Xiaosui half-squinted his eyes. Li Yunshan got out of bed and opened the door. He walked in and started to get dressed soon.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

"Grandma can't survive."

"Why can't everything be good?"

"Yun Qiang said that people are not conscious anymore, and they are about to die now."

Mao Xiaosui wished she could die, but seeing Li Yunshan's solemn expression, he still sat up and asked, "Should I go and see it too?"

"Get up, in case you die."

Mao Xiaosui hurriedly put on his clothes. When they arrived, they saw that the lights in the main room of Li Yunqiang's house were on, and Ding Wenxiu's coughing could be heard inside.

He was weak and weak, but he didn't look like he was going to die.

After opening the curtain and entering the room, Ding Wenxiu sat on the bed, her face dark and red, and she kept coughing.

She couldn't help but take a few more glances to make sure that this man didn't look like he was going to die.

Li Yunshan asked directly, "Isn't this good?"

Ding Wenxiu became excited as soon as she heard this, and when she wanted to scold him, she coughed again.

Li Yunqiang said coldly, "Don't be angry if you are not feeling well." Then he explained, "When he vomited, he didn't have time to turn over and choked."

Li Yunshan asked, "Didn't you take any medicine?"

These days, people cooking medicine in the house can smell it, but there is no smell of medicine at Li Yunqiang's house. This can only mean that Li Yunqiang did not get the medicine for Ding Wenxiu.

As expected, Li Yunqiang shook his head and said, "I don't have time."

Li Yunshan glanced at Ding Wenxiu and said, "There is a lot of firewood at home, right? It won't be a problem if it's a few days late."

"What if it snows a few days later? It's going to be winter soon."

Li Yunshan said nothing more and went out ignoring Ding Wenxiu's breathless look and glaring at him.

The two of them walked home under the dim light. Mao Xiaosui asked doubtfully, "Is Li Yunqiang reluctant to part with money?"

Li Yunshan said nothing.

They went home and squinted for a while, until the sky was completely bright, the two of them slowly got up.

Mao Xiaosui went out to the hut and glanced at the village out of habit. As a result, Mao Mingzhu waved when he saw her.

Although he didn't know what she wanted to do, Mao Xiaosui lowered his voice subconsciously and asked, "What's wrong?"

Mao Mingzhu kept waving, and she didn't even bother to go to the latrine, and trotted all the way to the intersection.

Mao Mingzhu asked in a low voice, "I heard that your grandma is dying?"

The curiosity in her heart disappeared immediately and she said, "I'm not dead. In the morning, before the rooster crowed, Li Yunqiang came and said he was going to die, but he choked on the filth he spit out, so he didn't die."

"Isn't that right?" Mao Mingzhu wondered, "Then why is your grandma crying and saying she doesn't want to die, yet I still think I'm going to die..."

"When?"

"When the rooster was just crowing, we didn't pull back the wood we chopped yesterday, so we got up a little early."

"Your uncle and the others also listened at that time. We all listened to your grandma saying she didn't want to die. It seems she had some quarrel with Li Yunqiang later."

Mao Xiaosui thought for a moment and said, "When I went down today, I felt that Li Yunqiang was reluctant to spend money to buy her medicine."

"You're a heartless thing." Mao Mingzhu scolded, "You can't breastfeed this person, but you also pulled him to grow up with shit and pee. It's been hurting for so many years. This old lady is like this when she gets sick. It’s so heartless.”

However, Mao Xiaosui felt that she deserved it. What kind of good children can be taught by selfish people can be regarded as the consequences of her words and deeds, and in the end she still has to bear the consequences.

"I don't know. Maybe I thought wrong." She glanced towards the door of her house and asked, "Are you and your cousin pulling the strings?"

"Xiaoxiao is just pregnant. It won't work if she bumps up and down. Shi'er's body is weak, so his mother can feel relieved just looking at her."

"Then I'll go back. Auntie is also busy." She hurriedly ran to the hut.

Li Yunshan asked her in the shed in the backyard, "What does aunt want you to do..."

"Just a few words."

After entering the house, I washed my hands, lit the clay stove, cooked the porridge, and then started to wash up.

After dinner, they had to build a wall. Li Yunshan went to fetch water first. She was washing the pot when she saw Heizi standing under the hanging meat and yelling twice.

Mao Xiaosui took a knife and cut off a piece of it and said, "If you are greedy, go find food by yourself. This is reserved for you to eat in the winter."

Heizi lowered his head and ate. When Li Yunshan finished carrying the water and started to build the wall with the mud, Mao Xiaosui realized that Gouzi was missing.

Heizi would run out recently, so she ignored him. He didn't come back until they were eating at noon, carrying a mountain rat in his mouth.

His stomach felt swollen, he threw the mountain rat away and stared at the two of them.

Mao Xiaosui didn't take it seriously. He ate, washed the pot and slept as usual until night. The mountain rats he caught in the morning and afternoon were not hidden by it. Moreover, Heizi always sat there and watched. She asked when Heizi kept calling in a low voice. Li Yunshan: "Why didn't Heizi hide today?"

Li Yunshan didn't take it seriously, until Heizi made a fuss and stopped sleeping when he blocked the door, and kept walking out the door.

Li Yunshan scolded him twice, and when he saw that it was still restless, he opened the door and let it out. After blocking the door, he heard it barking outside.

Li Yunshan scolded it twice more, wondering why it was so disobedient today.

When I opened the door and went out, I saw it picked up a mountain rat, put it down, and picked it up again. It repeated several times, which made Mao Xiaosui couldn't help but come out and take a look.

Asking uncertainly, "Does it feel inedible?"

"If you can't eat it, you won't bring it back."

"Want you to help peel the skin? We didn't need it before?"

The two guessed for a while, and Heizi became anxious. He turned around and ran to the hanging meat in the yard and shouted.

Li Yunshan frowned, "Does it want to be exposed to the sun?"

Mao Xiaosui said "Huh?" and felt incredible, "Why?"

Li Yunshan didn't know either, so he tentatively told Heizi, "I'll kill him for you tomorrow."

Heizi finally stopped and ran into the house.

Li Yunshan looked back at the dog and then at the mountain rat thrown on the ground. In the end, he was probably so shocked by the fact that a two-month-old dog had the awareness to store food and took action that he couldn't recover for a long time.

_

Heizi ran away as soon as he opened the door in the morning. Mao Xiaosui stood at the door and watched it go up the mountain.

She was surprised until Li Yunshan helped him kill mountain rats after dinner, "Why is this black guy suddenly so diligent? Is he determined to prepare rations for himself?"

Li Yunshan smiled, "Let it go, it will save you money."

Today they only need to build a nest, and wait until the wall is dry to build a roof and install a door in a few days. The two of them are not in a hurry and kill all five mountain rats of Heizi before setting off.

She needed branches to build a nest, and she wanted to keep some at home for the fire, so she went to the mountain and folded a bunch of them, not far away.

He folded a two-finger-thick branch into a calf-height and nailed it into the ground. The surface of the branch was wrapped in mud, and branches were placed on top and wrapped in mud. Li Yunshan left holes on both sides and in the middle for entry and exit.

It was just after noon when the busy time was over. The two of them were sitting by the clay stove drinking water when they heard a blackie barking in the yard. When they opened the curtain, they found that it had come back with another mouse in its mouth.

Li Yunshan didn't like to touch that thing, so he told it, "You can eat it yourself, I won't kill it."

Heizi screamed twice more and when Li Yunshan ignored him, he took it out again. He probably went to hide it. After a while, he ran in again, lay down on the ground, and sighed.

Mao Xiaosui was a little funny, "Why does it feel so tired?"

Li Yunshan patted it on the butt.

Heizi glanced at him and lay back down, looking worried.
