Dinon

Chapter 12

Yuan Shuyi glanced at the woman who was lying on the ground lightly, and didn't want to speak, she was disheartened now, she looked at everything indifferently, and she seemed to see through the world.

"Auntie, are you okay?" On the contrary, Tuo Bachen was taken aback by Aunt Li's behavior, saw her slumped on the ground, and immediately wanted to help her up.And the little boy called Huzi is also a filial son who wholeheartedly protects his mother. When he saw his mother fell down when he saw the beautiful sister in front of him, he immediately used his chubby hands to hold his mother and get up.With the joint efforts of the two young boys, although Aunt Li's legs were weak, she was able to stand still.

Yuan Shuyi held her soft whip with one hand, and her hair hanging on her chest with the other. She changed a comfortable position on the recliner and looked at the wall of Tuobachen's house that was dyed red by the sun's rays. The dilapidated fence, stained red with the willow tree she had smoked just now, spread all the way to her feet. Like wine, it is intoxicating, but also heartbreaking.

She has been here for almost two months.

"Yuan Shuyi." Tuo Bachen spoke first, "This is Aunt Li, this is..."

"I know." Yuan Shuyi turned his head and cast his eyes on the anxious woman who had been wiping sweat, and said in a light tone, "Isn't it the one who said my broken shoes?"

When she said this, Aunt Li's already soft legs became even softer.That day she was frightened by Yuan Shuyi, and she went back and had nightmares for several days, and the slap marks on her face from Yuan Shuyi haven't disappeared until now, but Yuan Shuyi saved the only child in their family , the family together, still have to come to thank you.And the responsibility of thanking him naturally falls to Aunt Li who has always been strong and unambiguous. It's just that she had such an unpleasant fight with Tuoba Chen and Yuan Shuyi last time, and she has never thought of any excuse to come to Xie En and eliminate Tuoba's family The quarrel with the Li family happened to happen that Tuobachen said two days ago that he could exchange salt with her, and the price of salt set by Tuobachen was low, so their family was a little moved.So, today, Aunt Li brought her son to the door with her things in her arms.

"That's because I'm an ignorant country woman, girl, don't care about us rough people." Aunt Li hurriedly laughed after hearing Yuan Shuyi's words, "No, I heard that Miss Yuan can exchange salt here, our family happened to be short of salt, today..."

"Okay," Yuan Shuyi smiled harmlessly, she raised her hand, and the whip in her hand dangled, causing Aunt Li's heart to tremble, "This Yan Er Ten cents a catty, if you don’t have any cash, you can exchange it for a stone of rice.” As she spoke, she raised her smooth chin and tilted her eyes half-closed, “Do you want to change it now?”

Hearing what she said, Aunt Li's face turned pale. She gritted her teeth and thought, what is she doing for salt? It's clearly robbery!Where can I buy a catty of salt for twenty renminbi? It can buy enough brown rice for their family for a month or two!She knew in her heart that Yuan Shuyi was taking revenge for what happened that day. She wanted to leave after hearing what Yuan Shuyi said, but she was a little scared when she saw Yuan Shuyi lazily holding his whip. She was really frightened by Yuan Shuyi, but twenty cents was too much, so she could only laugh along with her and said, "Twenty cents is really too much, the girl also saw the situation of our family the other day, it's really not a big deal Well, miss, we are all in the same village, so please forgive me as a village woman and lower the price a little."

Hmph, she is good at favors!Yuan Shuyi sneered in her heart, she didn't know who hit Tuo Bachen with such a big bruise that day, and the bruise was still there!She just gave her a few slaps and it was considered cheap for her. According to her past temperament, she would have to chop off her hands!So that she can know who can move and who cannot.She was persuaded by Tuo Bachen that if she didn't bother her, their house should burn incense, and now she dared to come to the door!

That's right, Yuan Shuyi is narrow-minded and holds grudges. When she was young, she encouraged Liang Xuyu to sneak to the capital to play together, but someone stole her purse accidentally. As a result, she ran directly to the government office to force her Seeing that the history of the capital forced all the Jinwu guards to patrol the city to find the person who stole her purse within a day.If Liang Xuyu hadn't stopped her, she would have beaten that man to death long ago, even though the man's pig-headed appearance was not much better at that time.

For this, Liang Xuyu once scolded her for being narrow-minded and not knowing how to cherish human life.In the end, she gritted her teeth and replied, "The life of the person I care about is human life. As for the others, if someone does not offend me, I will naturally not offend him, but if he offends me, I will let him know what 'life is better than death'!" She was only six years old at the time, and after her mother heard what she said, she sealed her abilities without saying anything, and never taught her witchcraft divination since then.

"If you want something, you can exchange it. If you don't want it, get out." Yuan Shuyi was still lazily leaning on the recliner, she was talking while playing with the soft whip in her hand, but there was a faint blue light in her eyes Floating, Aunt Li was trembling with fright, and she didn't dare to bargain with her anymore, but she couldn't walk as if her feet had taken root. She was in a hurry, her face was flushed, her body was sweating, and it was raining. It seems to flow down.

"Don't be afraid, auntie, she's just teasing you." Tuo Bachen couldn't bear to see her like this, so he kindly explained, and reminded the chubby boy, "Wipe your mother's sweat."

"Hey." The boy agreed, reached out to touch his mother, but found that he was a little short and couldn't reach his mother's face, so he called out, "Mother, squat down a little, I'll wipe your sweat."

Awakened by her son's actions and words, Aunt Li trembled all over, and said, "Hey." As she spoke, she wiped the sweat off her face with her sleeve, only to find that her whole body was covered in blisters, and her clothes Also thoroughly wet.

"Auntie, do you still want this salt?" Seeing that Tuobachen was about to sabotage her revenge plan, Yuan Shuyi shouted dissatisfiedly, which made Aunt Li tremble again.

"Auntie, a catty of salt is enough for a penny. If you don't have any cash, you can also exchange it with rice." Tuo Bachen ignored Yuan Shuyi's black face and continued to interrupt Yuan Shuyi's words, "If you want , I can take you to get it."

"Hey." Seeing Tuoba Chen's face now, Aunt Li felt that the lame son of the Tuoba family was really a good person, and compared to that demon girl, he was like a living god.She nodded, wiped away the tears that came out of the corners of her eyes, and said, "Chen'er, you are kind..."

Tuo Bachen ignored her words, just smiled and said, "Do you want it now?"

"Hey, I want ten catties, no, the rainy season is here, and I need to get some salted things at home," Aunt Li pulled the burden on her back, and tentatively said, "This is a few catties that I just bought a few days ago. Can you replace the salt with the beaten brown rice?"

"Yes." Tuobachen smiled. She glanced at Yuan Shuyi who had been silent since just now, sighed in her heart, and said with a smile on her face, "I'll take it for you."

"Hey, good." Aunt Li led her son and followed Tuobachen, carefully avoiding Yuan Shuyi to get salt from the cellar where Tuobachen stored things.

"Hmph!" Looking at their backs, Yuan Shuyi was very angry, but he had no choice but to continue to vent his anger on the willow tree, whipping with a soft whip while chanting, "I'll beat you to death, I'll beat you to death!" I don't know who she wants to kill.

Tuo Bachen took an empty earthen pot and weighed ten catties of salt for Aunt Li, and took the brown rice that Aunt Li had carried and put it on the scale to measure it. It turned out that there were two buckets of salt, enough to buy twenty catties of salt .

"Auntie, you have too much rice." Tuo Bachen said, and was about to dig out the rice in the coarse cloth bag, "Your rice is enough to buy twenty catties."

"Really?" Seeing her saying this, Aunt Li was also surprised. "It's not wrong to buy so much at the government office."

Tuobachen sighed in his heart, fearing that the people from the government would deceive them into being illiterate and blindly trusting the government, so they tried their best to cheat their money. Now, look for yourself, the one with the slash is ten catties, and the one with five more squares is twenty catties."

Guided by Tuo Bachen, Aunt Li recognized it for a long time before finally knowing how to recognize it was correct. Thinking about how much money she had been cheated for so many years, she was so distressed that they were in vain. So hard, afraid that the salesman would trick them into going to the government to buy salt!Aunt Li saw that Tuoba Chen was still scooping out rice while wiping the sweat off his forehead with a lame leg, and she felt a little sorry, "Chen'er, don't worry about it, Auntie will buy another ten catties, and it will save money." Then carry the rice back." Anyway, the salt is cheap, so she originally wanted to exchange so much rice for salt.

Tuo Bachen was taken aback for a moment, turned his mind and did not refuse, and replied, "Then I will weigh another ten catties for you."

Yuan Shuyi was tired from the beating, so she ran to the back room to drink some water, and then rushed to smoke the willow tree that was already bruised. Seeing her own son holding Tuo Bachen's hand tightly and saying something, Yuan Shuyi sneered, ignored them, turned around and continued to smoke the willow tree.

It was so hard to send off Aunt Li who likes to build relationships. Tuo Bachen went to the yard and looked at the willow tree in his own yard full of welts, and then at the beauty with closed eyes lying on the recliner. , Feeling helpless.She walked as lightly as possible, walked up to Yuan Shuyi and helped her rock the chair.

Yuan Shu recalled the nature of a child, but whenever she sat on this recliner, she had to dangle like a baby in a cradle, but she herself disliked that swinging on a recliner like swinging by herself was not fun, so she insisted on forcing Tuobachen to do it when she was free. Helping her shake, Tuo Bachen was forced to help her, so he agreed, and it became a habit after a long time.

"Don't you think you should say something?" Yuan Shuyi tried her best to put on the face of the private school teacher in her impression, and asked Tuo Bachen with a stiff tone.

"There is rice today, do you want to eat it?" Tuo Bachen asked instead instead of answering her.

"Hmph..." Yuan Shuyi hummed and pretended for a while, then said in displeasure, "I want it!"

Seeing her awkward look, Tuo Bachen wanted to laugh, but Yuan Shuyi was actually, um, very coaxing.
