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

Li Yunshan came just after his birthday.

People who usually went to bed too early were all sleepy now, so they all got up and left.

Mao Xiaosui climbed onto the bed non-stop, feeling as if he would faint if he took one slow step.

Li Yunshan was amused when he came back after blocking the door, "So sleepy?"

Mao Xiaosui was almost confused. Hearing this, he said "Yeah", "Thank you for coming, they are so good at talking."

Li Yunshan sighed. He actually didn't want to go out at all. Thinking of this, he said, "Next year, let's light the kang in the side room as well."

After saying this, no one was heard, and everyone seemed to be asleep.

It didn’t snow on New Year’s Eve, but it was the first day of the new year.

The snow was falling, and the village, which was already covered in silver, was once again dressed in new white clothes, making it more festive.

The children in the village dragged the sacks and started playing the slide game again. She watched for a while by the wall and saw Wang Shi also coming out after hearing the noise, including Yang Cui's voice calling him to come in quickly.

Wang Shi went out and went to the hut. After he came out, he stood and looked at it for a few times, then turned around and entered the house.

Li Ruyi was crying in the room, and when she entered the room, she saw Li Yunshan standing by the kang with the same confused expression.

"What's going on?"

She hurried over to Li Ruyi and hugged him, and it was even more strange to see Li Ankang looking confused.

Li Yunshan opened his mouth again and again, and it took him a long time to say, "She beat Ankang."

"Ah?" Mao Xiaosui was shocked. "You said...she beat Ankang?"

Li Ankang stared at her mouth, then curled up and started crying.

Li Yunshan hurriedly picked him up, and Li Ankang turned to look at Mao Xiaosui, who was screaming something.

When Li Ankang cried, Li Ruyi glanced at him and stopped crying.

Mao Xiaosui was really tired.

Li Yunshan said, "She slapped Ankang. He didn't cry but she cried."

"..."

After a while, Li Yunshan said again, "Did she frighten herself by hitting Ankang?"

"I feel like she has a guilty conscience." Mao Xiaosui asked unwillingly, "Is she careless?"

"No." Li Yunshan said, "She stared at Ankang for a while, then crawled over and dug at Ankang's mouth. I held her and put her aside, and for some reason suddenly slapped Ankang."

"This girl wants to go to heaven." Mao Xiaosui was surprised. "When you grow up, you will have to fight."

Li Yunshan: "Maybe it's because I'm still young and my hands are itchy."

There were few people visiting the house when it was snowing, and even fewer people came to Mao Mingzhu's house since they had a kang.

At noon, the two of them heated up last night's food and ate it. After eating, they planned to take a nap. Not long after they lay down, the courtyard door rang.

Li Yunshan went to open the door and was talking to someone at the door. After a while, he walked in and said, "The fifth master is gone."

Mao Xiaosui sat up and asked, "Why did it suddenly disappear?" Although the old man was thin and had missing legs, he was not in a state of death.

Li Yunshan was not in the mood to sleep at the moment, "I fell down when I went out, and I lost it immediately."

"Then...what's going on? Are you going down?"

"Later, they should talk about the funeral arrangements." Li Yunshan lay down again.

Mao Xiaosui had no feelings for the old men and women in the village. At most, he could only lament that things were impermanent.

Then he asked, "Why are there no members of the grandpa's family in the village? The village chief is the second eldest, grandpa is the third eldest, the fourth, fifth and sixth. Has the eldest moved away?"

"There is no boss." Li Yunshan said, "The boss is the elder brother of the village chief. He died very early, not even old enough to get married." He added, "It seems that he fell to death too. It has been too long, except for a few of the older generation." My grandfather would occasionally talk about it, but no one would mention it."

"The slope in the village is really dangerous." Mao Xiaosui sighed. "If there is a flood, everything will be fine. Life in the past was not convenient at all, especially in winter. I would be scared to death when I see you carrying water."

Li Yunshan: "Let's talk about it later. If you have more money, you can change the place. We can keep rabbits here... We can make plans then. If you don't have money, it's a waste of time."

_

Li Yunshan lay down for a while and then went down. He didn't come back until it was completely dark. Mao Xiaosui poured the chicken soup from the small pot into the soup basin, added water to the pot, and added the cabbage and unfinished noodles to cook.

Li Yunshan sat on the stool and said nothing, looking like he was dazed.

Mao Xiaosui wondered, "What have you been doing for so long?"

Li Yunshan didn't look very good, "I just heard them quarreling and gossiping."

"What's the noise about?"

"Who knows what they were arguing about. It was supposed to be about the preparations for the burial. But before I even entered the house, I heard the aunt and uncle from the fifth master's family arguing. I thought about coming back first, but they kept talking about it. Those in the west won’t be allowed to leave.”

"Just making coffins and digging pits for burial? Is there anything else?"

"No." Li Yunshan said, "On this matter, I have to talk about it for a long time every time. I don't know what I'm trying to do. If I don't go, it won't work. Every time I go, it's a lot of nonsense."

It could be heard that he was very angry, so Mao Xiaosui comforted him, "After you finish eating, go to bed quickly."

Li Yunshan said "Yeah" and was a little choked up while eating.

After putting the bowl down and getting on the kang, Mao Xiaosui thought he had fallen asleep. Li Yunshan helped her arm while she blew on the lamp and climbed up.

"Didn't you sleep?"

"No." Li Yunshan lay on his side facing her, "I'm just freezing. It's warmer when I'm working, but it's too cold just standing there."

"Second Grandpa and the others were sitting in the house. We had no place to go, so we stood at the door."

"How many grandpas are also helping?" Mao Xiaosui was surprised.

"After all, he is an old man in the village, and it is the fifth master who died, so he must say something." Li Yunshan sighed, "The second grandpa even cried, saying that it would be his turn soon. They couldn't bear it and we urged them, and I guess they are still talking about their old stories at this moment."

Mao Xiaosui sighed, "It seems that the best way to ease the relationship is to part ways through life and death. I didn't feel that the relationship was that close before, and there were always quarrels every three days. Why are everyone so sad when they die?"

Li Yunshan was silent for a long time before saying, "Maybe it's because I'm afraid, or maybe it's because I won't be able to see each other again, and suddenly I feel reluctant to leave. Who knows..."
