Li Yunshan carried the tree down and was stunned for a moment when he saw Mao Xiaosui chatting and laughing with the village woman not far away.

He originally thought that this man was going to be bullied today, but now he looked very harmonious.

Li Yunqiang also saw it. He was stunned for a long time and said, "Sister-in-law is really amazing."

Li Yunshan said nothing with a cold face, and left after confirming that she was not bullied.

Some sharp-eyed people in the village had already spotted Li Yunshan and asked curiously, "Is this Li Yunshan going to hit you?"

Mao Xiaosui was stunned for a moment, and turned around just in time to see Li Yunshan's leaving figure.

She frowned, but told the truth, "He is quite fierce, but he seems to be..." She originally wanted to say it was not bad, but then she remembered that he ignored her wishes, so she changed the topic and asked, "Why are you so afraid of him?" ?”

"He is a murderer." Mao Mingzhu exclaimed. She was originally from Maojia Village, and the relationship between the two was naturally the fastest.

"Who did you kill?"

"His parents."

she wondered.

Seeing that she didn't believe it, Mao Mingzhu immediately said, "It's true. His mother had difficulty giving birth to him and died within a year. Later, his father married a widow who could not have children."

"The widow probably treated him badly because she couldn't bear the child. She often beat and scolded him. When Li Yunshan was twelve years old, he set fire to his father and stepmother."

"Who saw him setting the fire?" She vaguely felt that this was not the case. At least from Ding Wenxiu's attitude, Li Yunshan's father was her son after all. If Li Yunshan really killed his father, how could Ding Wenxiu be so emotional when facing him? Stablize?

"You're a stubborn girl. There are three people in this family. Isn't it obvious that two people are dead and he is alive?"

Mao Xiaosui nodded, saying that it was all from what he heard, but she still said, "Then his father and stepmother are nothing..." She wanted to scold them for not being good people, but then thought that it was inappropriate for her current status, Ma He quickly shut up.

The basket Li Yunshan put yesterday was gone. She finished digging for mushrooms and waited by the river for a while. She didn't catch a single fish. It was already dark in the forest. The village woman greeted her and walked down the mountain.

Mao Mingzhu was walking with her, and when she came down from the threshing floor, she suddenly said, "Aren't you a fool? I went back to my parents' house before, and you were not like this."

The corner of Mao Xiaosui's mouth twitched, and he sighed in a half-hearted way, "It was also a coincidence. I was overjoyed at the time...I was hit on the head, but I thought he helped me."

It was the first time I heard about beating a fool well, but Mao Mingzhu didn't doubt it. He just said, "Your parents will definitely be happy when they find out." and left.

Mao Xiaosui sneered, maybe the family just regretted selling less, right? "

Normally, it cost ten taels of silver to marry a wife. If she remembered correctly, the original owner sold her for four taels.

There were two new logs thrown in the yard. She threw the grass in the basket to the chickens, and then went to the kitchen to get a basin and wash the fungi.

Wash the fungi and keep some for dinner, and put the rest on a large dustpan to dry.

Li Yunshan came back early today, probably because he was tired, so he washed his face and went back to the house to lie down.

She went to call when the meal was ready, and waited for a while before she came back.

The two of them didn't speak, and ate their meals quietly.

Time flew by and it was June. After dinner in the morning, Mao Xiaosui went to the mountain to dig for fungi as usual. She stood at the door of her house and shouted in the direction of the Qi family. After a while, someone from the Qi family came out.

When someone approached, she called out "Yuzhen."

Qi Yuzhen smiled and said, "My family has grown a lot of wild vegetables this year."

"That's called a fungus."

"It doesn't matter what they are called. All the wild vegetables that can be dug up and eaten in the village are wild vegetables."

"It rained last night, so there should be soft-skinned vegetables today."

The soft-skinned vegetables she was talking about are also called ground vegetables. As long as it rains, there will be a lot of them on the ground. She smiled and patted the basket on her hand, "Pick up more after a while. They are also delicious when fried. They are soft and soft." Like fat.

Qi Yuzhen smiled implicitly and asked, "Li Yunshan and the others went to the mountain again?"

"Yes." She looked up at the sky. "It's still early for winter, right? Do you need to prepare so early?"

"No way." Qi Yuzhen laughed, "They chopped it up and took it to the town to sell it."

"Only Li Yunshan and Li Yunqiang go to the mountains at this time every year, and the rest of the village just get firewood for the winter."

"Why?" According to her observation for more than a month, the people in the village are really not rich. Everyone's clothes are patched, especially those with a large family. A family with more than a dozen people only has eight or nine acres of land, which is enough for a year. Only twenty-four or five dans of grain, excluding the taxes paid, means that a person only has one dan of more grain a year, and he can't starve to death.

"It's difficult to walk on the mountain, and many people in the village have had accidents on it." His voice became softer unconsciously as he spoke, "So did Li Yunqiang's parents."

The river on the mountain was rushing. Mao Xiaosui saw a basket placed there downstream of the river. He took a closer look and found that it was the one Li Yunshan had brought with him that morning.

There were two very small fish and a slightly larger one inside. She threw the too small one out, and then began to carefully search for something to eat...

A lot of wood has been piled up in the yard. Li Yunshan was probably really tired and fell asleep as soon as he got home.

I cooked millet rice at noon, fried the two and a half large fish I caught in a basket in the morning, and stir-fried a plate of vegetables.

Li Yunshan also woke up smelling the aroma of the food. While eating, Li Yunshan asked her, "Are you going to the market tomorrow?"

"Selling firewood?"

"No, I'm talking about the gathering. The mother-in-law in the village should go. You can come with me tomorrow and sell some of the eggs and vegetables at home."

Mao Xiaosui didn't quite understand "There are so many people selling, where do the people buying it come from?"

"Among the two nearby towns, this is a middle ground. Neither side is very far away."

"The people here are not very wealthy, and the things sold here are cheaper. Most people in the town and nearby who need something will come here to take a look."

"Do you sell fungi?"

"Wild vegetables are cheap, and there are many mountains here, so everyone has plenty of them."

It's still a pity. It would be nice to get some money if the fungi are so delicious.

After Li Yunshan finished eating, he went to bed again. Mao Xiaosui picked out the ground vegetables he picked up in the morning. Halfway through washing, he realized that there was no water and was unwilling to wash it, so he simply took the basin to the water.

There were people washing clothes by the water at this point. She looked around and found that they were not from Lihezi Village. Just as she was about to take two steps to the side, she heard the man ask, "Are you that fool from the Mao family?"

Mao Xiaosui lost his temper. These people were really rude in what they said.

She didn't care, the woman muttered something to herself, but fortunately she didn't bother her to talk.

Li Yunshan didn't go to the mountain in the afternoon. He chopped the firewood that had been dried in the yard and didn't ask when he saw her coming in with a basin.

Mao Xiaosui dried the ground vegetables and went to the kitchen to take a look. When he came out, he stared at him and whispered, "There is no water at home."

Li Yunshan didn't seem to hear, and was just chopping firewood.

Mao Xiaosui snorted in his heart and was unwilling to say it a second time. He went into the kitchen, took a bucket and walked out.

Li Yunshan threw the ax, took it, frowned and asked, "Speak to me louder and I can eat you?"

Mao Xiaosui hunched his shoulders and lowered his head without speaking.

Li Yunshan was furious and walked out with a cold face.

The men and women in the village are busy working in the fields and looking for winter vegetables.

Before Li Yunshan came back, Mao Mingzhu and others called her outside.

She responded and walked out quickly.

Li Yunshan had just left the village and it would take a while to come back, so she said, "You go first, I'll be right back."
