Farmhouse Stone Mountain

The cold wind blows, and there are only a few people on the street. A woman carrying half a bag of rice from a rice shop bows and gathers the turban on her head. She is dressed in black coarse cloth, and only a pair of eyes can be seen. With the rice in his hand, he quickly turned in from several trails and came to a small courtyard. Just as he was about to raise his hand to push the door, a strong man came out of the door. Seeing her, he was taken aback for a while. , Continue to fasten the belt around the waist.

"The figure is not bad," the man said, reaching out his hand to touch it.

The woman hid for a while, lowered her head, and buried her head in the thick kerchief, "I'll go in first." After saying that, she dodged into the yard.

A man's cursing voice came from behind, "Bah! They are all sold out and want to set up a memorial archway!"

The woman just paused and walked in.

On the floor of the house, there are a few pieces of black carbon in an iron basin that has been rusted into bad shape. You can only see a little spark, but it is always much warmer than outside.

After the woman entered the house, she put half a bag of rice in her hand into the kitchen, and when she came out, she heard the scolding again as usual.

"Oh, you look down on me, without me supporting you now, you would have starved to death on the street!"

"You shameless bitch! I was so blind back then, I beat you to death!"

Noisy cursing, the woman seemed to be numb, took a piece of charcoal from the kitchen and put it in the brazier, and then moved a stool to sit by the brazier to warm the fire.

After a while, the beating and scolding in the room became louder and louder. Shi Dafu was pushed to the ground several times. If you look carefully, you will find that one of his legs has been disabled.

He Jiao glanced at him with a sneer, "I'm dirty, don't use my money if you have the ability!" After speaking, she looked up at the person by the brazier, her attitude softened a little, "Yue Lan, why do you use so much carbon, the kitchen There are not many pieces of carbon left, so save some money.”

Shi Yuelan didn't respond.

He Jiao raised her foot and kicked Shi Dafu on the ground, and walked back, "What do you think of the one I introduced to you a few days ago? He is a bit older, but the family is still decent."

Shi Yuelan didn't look up.

He Jiao was a little anxious, raised her hand and pulled her up, and pulled off Shi Yuelan's scarf, revealing an ugly burn on her face.

Shi Yuelan hastily covered her face again. She had been someone else's concubine for a while, but not long after, her face was ruined by the main house for having an affair with someone, and then she was kicked out. Now, heh, Shi Yuelan clutched her scarf tightly, nothing was important anymore.

"It doesn't matter if you don't marry. Butcher Huang told me today that he likes you very much. He will come over tomorrow, so you take good care of her."

As soon as He Jiao's words fell to the ground, Shi Yuelan shook her body.

He Jiao continued, "Don't think your mother is cruel. Wenbo will be shortlisted for the exam soon. If you don't have money to pay for him, it won't work. After Wenbo is in high school, mother will definitely find a marriage for you."

What He Jiao is thinking about now is Shi Wenbo.

Thinking of her elder brother, Shi Yuelan sneered, not long ago she saw his elder brother drinking with people in a restaurant, eating fish and meat, how could she remember them, he would only come back when he had no money.

Thinking of the voice coming from the door, it was Shi Wenbo who came back, still in a fat body, and the clothes he wore were much better than theirs.

When He Jiao saw someone, she quickly broke her smile, and went over to pull him to ask him how he was.

"Why are you back today? Didn't you say you were in the academy?"

Shi Wenbo glanced at Shi Dafu who was trying to get up on the ground, and then at the person squatting in the corner, his eyes were full of disgust, "Isn't this coming back and mother, you get some money, the exam is coming soon, you have to clear it up relation"

He Jiao didn't believe it at first, she only gave a lot last time, so why did she have to give it again this time, but her only son pointed at him to make a fortune, didn't say anything, and went to the house to get the money.

After getting the money, Shi Wenbo put it into his arms immediately, and rolled his eyes, "Mother, it's not enough to do things with money now, my sister can dance, let her dance for my friends, just serve a few people, when the time comes They are also very helpful.”

He Jiao looked at the person in the corner and shook her head, "No, this is your own sister... and there are several people, no, no"

"Mom, why are you in a hurry, my friends are all gentle people, they won't do anything to them, I can't help it, I'm going to take the exam soon"

He Jiao hesitated, but couldn't bear Shi Wenbo's pleading, and agreed after a while.

Shi Wenbo got his wish, and happily agreed to stay for dinner, let Shi Yuelan make some troubles tonight, and leave with him tomorrow morning.

Shi Yuelan in the corner just moved when He Jiao agreed and didn't respond anymore.

Dinner was vegetable porridge mixed with brown rice. Shi Wenbo disliked it, but he still took a few sips. After a while, several people on the table passed out.

When Shi Wenbo opened his eyes, he felt how wet his eyelids were, and smelled a smell of rust. When he came back to his senses, he couldn't move. He was tied to the stool. When he looked down, he was so scared that he was wet instantly. crotch.

Shi Yuelan took the knife in her hand from He Jiao's chest, and the blood reached her forehead, but she didn't respond.

"Brother, the next one is you"

Just as Shi Wenbo was about to yell out, the blood-red knife had already been thrust in. His eyes seemed unbelievable, his pupils twisted, and he died slowly after a while.

Shi Dafu, who was tied up, kept shrinking under the table, he was terrified, why did he become like this, crazy, all crazy!

Shi Yuelan walked towards him slowly, stopped after half a step, and the knife in her hand fell to the ground with a "bang".

Shi Yuelan called out "Father"

Shi Dafu shook his body, "Yue Lan, I am your father, don't kill me, I beg you!"

"Father, do you still remember Shi Shan?"

One sentence made Shi Dafu stunned.

Shi Yuelan's eyes were blank and her mouth moved, "Did you know? I've heard people say that Shi Jilou is very famous now and has a lot of money. He and He Juanzhi are married. The relationship between the two is very good, and it has been rumored by many people. It’s a good story, father, you said that if you hadn’t been with my mother, life might be better now, oh, let me tell you one thing, mother said, Shi Shanniang was by my side when Gu Nian died, that woman Before I died, I was still thinking about you, and I wanted to make clothes for you, hahahaha, you said she was stupid, my mother didn't like you at all, she just couldn't see that Gu Nian was better than her in everything, so she had to fight, haha Haha" just finished speaking, he picked up the knife and stabbed it into his heart.

That night, three people died in this small courtyard, and within a few days, a crippled lunatic appeared on the street, crazy, and when he saw a woman, he grabbed hold of a woman and shouted "Gu Nian, I'm sorry", crying for a while. Will laugh, fell into the lake and drowned at the coldest time of this winter, there was no one to collect the body, someone just dug a place and buried it hastily.
