Mrs. Tong came back with a basket of wild mustard greens, and said to Mu Siyu, who was doing carpentry in the yard, "Why is the neighbor moving things? I just looked at it, it's not from our village."

Mu Siyu responded to her without raising her head: "A few days ago, I really came here and said that their family is going to do business in the city and sold the house next door to someone else."

"Sold? What about their land?"

"I don't know about that." Mu Siyu stopped and wiped the dust off his face: "I didn't ask. But even if they want to sell it, they will sell it to their brothers of the same clan!"

"That's true." Tong Shi was disappointed.

"Mother, Brother Han won't be limited to this village, there's no need to buy land." Mu Siyu persuaded, "But there's a new neighbor next door, we have to build a good relationship, I'll go and have a look!"

Since it is to visit new neighbors, you can't leave empty-handed.The chickens at home started laying eggs, and I picked ten eggs to visit, but no one said she was polite.

"Hello, is anyone there?" Mu Siyu knocked on the door.

The door opened, and a woman with a cold face stood there: "Who are you?"

"I live next door. I heard that a new neighbor has moved in, so I came here to say hello." Mu Siyu smiled and said, "What's your name, aunt?"

"My surname is Yu." Yu said indifferently: "If there is nothing to do, I will continue to work. The house is in chaos, so I don't invite you to come in and sit down."

After finishing speaking, he closed the door, not even giving Mu Siyu a chance to speak.

Mu Siyu touched her nose.

It seems that the new neighbors are not easy to get along with!

"How is it?" Tong Shi asked, "Who is coming next door?"

"I only saw an aunt who is about the same age as you, and nothing else. But that aunt seems to have a bit of a temper, let's not provoke it if we can!" Mu Siyu said.

"I saw a young girl when I passed by." Tong Shi said, "Since it's difficult to get along with, let's close the door and pass her. There's no need to move around."

Looking at the small yard, Yu frowned.

There is a lot of gossip in the city, so she moved to the countryside on purpose to avoid those annoying neighbors.But this yard is dirty and messy, I don't know how long it will take to clean it up, it makes me sad to think about it.

"Mother," An Yu came out with the aid of a blind stick. "The bed is made, is there anything else for me to do?"

"If you just stay there and don't move, you will help me." After Yushi finished speaking, she continued to work on the work in hand. "Your brother is serious, why did you spend this money to buy this stick for you? I don't know how much it cost."

Yu Shi complained endlessly.

An Yu clutched her blind stick and dared not make a sound.

She has long been used to her mother's 'eccentricity'.

The village talked about whether it was big or small, and the news that Mrs. Chen had sold the house to outsiders spread quickly.

When Yu Shi came to the river with a lot of things to wash, many people looked at her with curious eyes.

"Sister, what's your name?"

"My surname is Yu."

"Sister Yu, where did you move from?"

"In the city."

"Oh, the city is so nice, why did you move to the countryside? Everyone else moved from the countryside to the city, why did you do the opposite? How many people do you have in your family? What do men do?"

Yu Shi frowned, picked up the laundry stick and slapped it hard.

clap clap clap!

The water splashes everywhere.

"How did you wash it? Did it splash all over my face?"

The people around quickly dispersed.

"Mother... Mother..." An Yu's voice came.

Yu Shi frowned, put away the unwashed clothes, picked up the wooden bucket and walked back.

"This man has such a big airs!"

"That's right, they don't care about people."

"Hey, look, her daughter is blind."

Yushi stepped faster, grabbed An Yu's arm and pulled her home: "What are you doing out here?"

An Yu's feet wobbled and almost fell to the ground.Fortunately, the blind stick supported her body, so she didn't fall down.

"Mother, don't pull me, I can walk by myself."

Yushi let go of her, and let out a foul breath: "What are you doing out here?"

"Why is my box missing? Where did you receive it for me?"

"I think it's something. I put it away for you. It's useless for you to keep it now."

"Mom, why is it useless? My brother gave it to me."

"An Yu, your brother needs to spend a lot of money to study. It's fine if we two women can't help him, and he always needs to spend money to take care of us. To tell you the truth, I sold the things in the box and received the money. Wake up, it's for your brother's scientific research. No one knows what will happen to you in the future, and you don't need to prepare any dowry."

An Yu bit her lips: "Didn't you keep any of them? That's the birthday present my brother gave me over the years."

Even one is fine.

She just wanted to keep it in mind.

"I didn't stay." Yushi said indifferently, and left with the barrel in his arms.

An Yu froze in place.

When Mu Siyu went out, she saw a little girl sitting on a rock crying, she looked at it curiously.

The little girl heard the footsteps and wiped away her tears in embarrassment.

"An Yu?" Mu Siyu recognized An Yu.

An Yu heard the voice a little familiar, and stood up in surprise when he thought of something: "Sister Mu?"

"it's me."

"Why are you here?"

"I live here."

"Huh?" An Yu was surprised.

"Couldn't you be the new neighbor?" Mu Siyu glanced at the neighbor: "Then the one I saw just now was your mother?"

"Yeah." When she mentioned her mother, she felt extremely lost.

"need my help?"

"No need." An Yu bowed his head: "Sister Mu, go and get busy! I want to be alone for a while."

"My house is next door to yours. If you need to talk to me, you can come to me!" Mu Siyu said, "Excuse me first."

Xia Kun walked over carrying a wild boar.

Behind him followed a large group of children, they touched and pulled the wild boar, very curious.

"Are you going up the mountain?"

"En." Xia Kun originally responded indifferently, but when he saw An Yu, his expression froze.

"An Yu is our new neighbor." Seeing Xia Kun's expression was wrong, Mu Siyu explained.

An Yu 'looked' in Xia Kun's direction, and moved sideways with his blind stick.

Xia Kun carried the wild boar into the yard.

An Yu is not very familiar with the new route, and fell down several times before finding her own home.

Yu Shi didn't intend to come to help, and the clothes were not washed well, so she had to fetch water from the well to wash them.She really didn't want to go to the river, the women there were suffocating.

"Mom, what's for dinner tonight?"

"We don't need to work in the fields, and we don't need much energy. From now on, we can just eat one meal a day." Shi Yu said while rubbing his clothes, "Don't talk nonsense when your brother comes back. He must concentrate on studying and not be distracted."

An Yu found a seat and sat down.

What she didn't say was that she was so hungry and dizzy that she couldn't bear it.

She eats one meal a day, and each meal doesn't even have any oil or water. Her body is weak, and she doesn't know how many days she can last.

But if I tell my mother, she will still go her own way, and even dislike her as a burden even more.
