Su Jiao carried a basket on her back and came to the lower reaches of the river. She found a piece of vigorously growing pigweed. She immediately lowered her head and started cutting it with a smile on her face. She thought to herself: "Great, today's task can be completed early."

Just as he was working hard, a little boy suddenly ran over from behind and accidentally bumped into Su Jiao, almost falling down.

"Be careful." Su Jiao quickly held him up with quick eyes and hands. After the little boy stood firm, he immediately frowned and limped back a few steps, holding his hands in front of his chest in a defensive posture.

At this time, Su Jiao could clearly see the appearance of the little boy. He was about six or seven years old. Although he was dark and thin, he had a pair of beautiful big black eyes. The boy's clothes were a bit messy. Although he was patched, he was dry. It was clean, and it was carrying a backpack much larger than the boy's body, which made the whole thing look particularly out of place.

Su Jiao didn't know whose child this was, because Xiangyang Village was relatively large, and Su Jiao had been studying in the county town. She didn't stay at home for a long time. After returning to the village, she was too lazy to work and seldom went out.

Just as Su Jiao was about to open her mouth to ask whose child he was and whether her legs were okay, she saw several children chasing him not far away, still yelling.

"Down with the stinky old nine!"

"I am Stinky Laojiu's child. They are all bad guys. Beat him!"

......

Hearing the shouting, Su Jiao immediately understood that the child who had just bumped into her must have bad qualities. The adults in the village said every day that the children at home followed his example and came to bully him.

When the little boy heard the sound, he immediately turned around and limped forward. His leg must have been accidentally twisted when he bumped into Su Jiao. It was very laborious to run, and he didn't get very far in a long time.

Because his leg was injured, the little boy was soon caught up by several children. The children pushed the little boy to the ground, and then began to circle around the child, shouting and cursing, "Down with the stinky old nine... ..."

The little boy raised his head stubbornly, clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and remained silent.

Su Jiao couldn't help but admire the child's forbearance. He was a little man.

Su Jiao walked forward, put her hands on her hips and shouted: "Whose bastards are they? Tell us your name and trample all the pig grass I want to cut. If I don't tell your parents, let them beat you up." you."

Hearing Ye Yao's scolding, the children instantly became quiet. They looked at the pigweed that had been trampled under their feet and ignored the little boy. They all took a few steps back with guilty conscience. A chubby little man who looked to be about seven or eight years old bravely asked: "Who are you?"

Su Jiao continued to scold with her hands on her hips: "My name is Su Jiao. See how I will complain to your parents soon. Please tell me who your parents are?"

"Is this Su Jiao from Grandpa Qingyou's family?" the little boy asked tremblingly after hearing this.

"Yes, it's me. How do you know me? Whose child are you?" Su Jiao asked confused.

Hearing Su Jiao's affirmative answer, the little fat man was so frightened that he dropped his buttocks and squatted down. He didn't even bother to cry out in pain. He got up and ran away: "Everyone, run quickly. It's Su Jiao, the lazy woman. I heard she also likes to hit her." Man, it hurts to hit someone.”

Several other children also followed suit and ran away, shouting as they ran.

"Mom, lazy bitch Su Jiao is going to hit me."

"Wow! Mom, lazy bitch Su Jiao hit me, it hurts so much."

.......

Su Jiao: "..." Su Jiao said that her native language is speechless...Thanks to the kids for allowing her to watch the drama "How Rumors Are Born" up close.

Well, she underestimated her reputation in the village. If she had known that her name was so effective, why would she be so pretentious and nonsense, she could have just signed up for the number.

Su Jiao put down her hands on her hips, quickly stepped forward to help the little boy up, and asked softly: "My child, how are you? Are your feet okay?"

The little boy was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect that Su Jiao would take the initiative to talk to him. He hesitated and blocked Su Jiao's hand to support him, whispered a thank you, then turned around and limped away with gritted teeth.

Seeing the boy walking away, Su Jiao didn't stop him. After all, he was just a stranger. It was normal for the boy to not want to communicate with others since he was not a good boy.

Shaking away the messy thoughts in her head, Su Jiao concentrated on cutting the pigweed. After cutting for a long time, she finally finished cutting the piece of pigweed. She had enough for the morning.

After Su Jiao handed over the pigweed, she walked back to the mountain with her basket on her back. It was still early, so she could go dig some wild mushrooms and collect some firewood in the mountains, because most people were at work at this time, and there were many people on the mountain. Soon, Su Jiao's backpack was full. Su Jiao was about to go down the mountain when she heard a rustling sound behind a tree not far away.

Su Jiao's eyes suddenly lit up. She must have encountered a pheasant. If she caught it, she could have extra food tonight, so she walked over cautiously.

"Oh my God, bah bah bah! I almost got a needle eye!!!" When Su Jiao saw the situation behind the tree clearly, she turned her head and cursed in her heart.

It turned out that what was behind the tree was not a pheasant, but a pair of wild mandarin ducks having an affair. Although Su Jiao only took a few glances, she recognized that the two women were the protagonists of the melon she had eaten before: Wang Mazi and Widow Li.

Don't ask why Su Jiao knew these two people. Who made these two people have been "celebrities" in the village since many years ago? A second-rate son paired with a romantic widow.

The two of them had no grudges against Su Jiao. They were in love with each other. Su Jiao didn't bother to care, so she huddled up and tiptoed down the mountain.

"It seems that what the aunts in the village said before about the two of them getting into the corn field is probably true. What a great game for this guy!" Su Jiao couldn't help but murmur in her heart.

After going down the mountain, Su Jiao did not go home directly. Instead, she turned around and headed towards the Su family.

Su Jiao remembered that the Su family had planted some tomatoes on their own land, so she thought about picking a few and taking them home to make some tomato sauce for Ye Yao to eat.

When she arrived at Su's house, Su Jiao opened the courtyard door and shouted several times, but found that no one was home. Su Jiao thought that she probably hadn't even finished work yet.

In this era of strict policies and simple folk customs, no one dared to commit crimes. Many families in the village did not close their courtyard doors when no one was at home, but the rooms where family belongings were stored were still locked.

Of course, Su Jiao's heart is not that big. Su Jiao is not at ease with the courtyard door open. She will close and lock the courtyard door when no one is at home when she goes out and when she goes to bed at night.

Su Jiao poured some wild mushrooms in her basket in front of the kitchen door, then closed the courtyard door and went to the Su family's private plot to pick seven or eight ripe tomatoes.

Just as he was about to go home, Aunt Fengyun, who lives next door to the Su family, came back from work. When she saw Su Jiao from afar, she started to say hello: "Yao Yao, your mother and the others haven't finished work yet. It will take a while before she comes back."

"Auntie, I have nothing to do. I came to pick a few tomatoes from the vegetable patch at home, and by the way, I brought some freshly picked wild mushrooms to add to the family's vegetables." Su Jiao stopped and chatted with Aunt Fengyun. for a little while.

Before leaving, Su Jiao also poured some wild vegetables and mushrooms for Aunt Fengyun, "Aunt, these are the wild vegetables and mushrooms I picked in the back mountain in the morning. Don't be too short, and add some vegetables for lunch."

"Oh, you kid, it took a lot of effort to pick it. Keep it for yourself and eat it." Aunt Fengyun said politely.

"Auntie, you see you are being polite to me. It's not a rare thing. Just eat something fresh. Okay, Auntie, it's time for me to go home and prepare to cook." Su Jiao said.

"Hey, then Auntie won't be polite to you anymore. Come back quickly." Aunt Fengyun said with a smile.

Su Jiao went home after saying goodbye to Aunt Fengyun. Looking at Su Jiao's back, Aunt Fengyun couldn't help but sigh: "Jiaojiao is really getting more and more presentable."
