The Road to Self-Saving of the Mud Bodhisattva

Chu Xuan's words stunned both of them.

After a while, Village Chief Dou said, "Well, Doctor Chu, you may have misunderstood, this is really Dou Su's father." He was a little bit dumbfounded as he said this, "You folks in this village, you can go to Dou Village to inquire casually. Just know."

After thinking for a while, he said, "In fact, not only Dou Village, most people in Zhangjia Village probably know about it."

Village Chief Dou has said this, so it is likely to be true.

After all, Zhang Village is so close, as long as Chu Xuan goes to the village at the foot of the mountain, all lies will be exposed.

Chu Xuan looked down at Xiao Dou Su, and saw the child frowning at the man, with doubts in his eyes, but his hand was holding on to Chu Xuan's clothes tightly, with no intention of going over at all.

Father Dou looked at Xiao Dou Su, his eyes were red, and his voice was trembling, "Xiao Su, I'm sorry, Dad failed to protect you well, nor did you protect your mother... Dad is sorry for your mother and son..."

As he spoke, a big man wiped his tears away.

Chu Xuan: "..."

Xiao Dou Su: "..."

In addition to the situation on their faces, Xiao Dou Su frowned, and said in a flat tone, "My father is dead, that's what everyone said."

When he couldn't eat and was about to die of starvation, he also thought about his father and his mother, hoping that they would show up, give him some food, or give him a warm embrace.

But no, nothing.

When he himself survived the disease, climbed up and searched for food in the mountains and plains, and stumbled and struggled to survive, he already realized that he had no relatives in this world anymore.

Until the adult appeared, the adult who fed him and clothed him, who made him feel warm even though he was cold, was his only family member.

In front of them were just two strangers.

Father Dou was even more sad when he heard this, and Village Chief Dou hurriedly explained dryly beside him, "This is a misunderstanding. Xiao Su, your father served in the military nine years ago, and none of the different batches came back. Then everyone misunderstood... Haha, look at this incident, this is really your father, your dear father."

Xiao Dou Su pursed her lips tightly and didn't speak, but just tugged at the corner of Chu Xuan's clothes.

This made Father Dou very anxious, and repeatedly said that it was his fault.

From the words of several people, Chu Xuan roughly saw the context of the matter.

Nine years ago, Anguo was enlisted for military service. Father Dou had no choice but to leave his new wife and newly conceived child and go to the battlefield.

Although we all know that it is difficult for people who serve in the army to return, Dou Yanqing is different. He has been stronger than ordinary people since he was a child. When others can only farm the land to make a living, he has been able to go hunting in the mountains to subsidize his family.

Even that daughter-in-law was his fancy, and he spent a lot of dowry to marry her back.Because of this, his mother always complained about his daughter-in-law.

It's just that they are a family, and Dou Yanqing is the biggest labor force in the family.

Although there were minor conflicts in daily life, major conflicts were rare, and even if there were, they would not go to Dou Yanqing.

Therefore, Dou Yanqing always thought that his wife and her family got along very well. After all, they are all one family, and the bones are still connected!

So much so that when the family needed someone to serve in the military, I thought that for that family, for my own family, he was indeed the most suitable one.

Then, he handed over his new wife and unborn son to the care of his so-called relatives.

And it has been nine years since he left, and the situation on the battlefield has not been very good. The news came one after another, saying that the people who went out from Liupan County have been folded on the battlefield.

In the beginning, Dou Su's mother and son had a good life. There was a man who served in the military, so he had a backer.

I don't know if it's because of guilt, or because of fear of Dou Yanqing, but the Dou family is quite caring for mother and child.

However, as bad news came one by one, whoever reported it said that Dou Yanqing had died outside.

Everyone didn't believe it at first, thinking that with Dou Yanqing's skills, she should be able to live longer.

However, with the passage of time, Dou Yanqing never came back, and there are some things that are spread more and more people believe in them.

Then, gradually, the life of Dou Su mother and son was not so easy.

At the beginning, they thought they were all one family, and Dou Yanqing and her two elder brothers lived together and did not separate.

Although they eat and live together on weekdays, Dou Yanqing still has to keep some of the prey that he hunts alone.

He saved some private money and secretly left it to his wife.

He felt that most of his income had already been given to his family, and it was right for him to keep some money for himself.

However, he didn't know that some people's hearts can never be filled.

His behavior of leaving private money has long made his two elder brothers very dissatisfied. After the news of his death came, the first thing his so-called relatives thought of was not how to take care of his widow, but how to take care of his widow. Get out of his private money.

When they thought about it, the family hadn't been separated yet. Those were the public's money, so how could you, Dou Yanqing, keep it privately?

The Dou family suddenly became harsh on the mother and son. Dou's mother pretended to be sick at every turn and asked Dou Suniang to pay for her medical treatment. Otherwise, she would scold Dou Suniang for being unfilial. .

Or say that the family has no money, and ask Dou Suniang to use the money to subsidize the family, or scold her for being selfish, only caring about herself, and ignoring everyone else.

Or assign the work in the field to Dou Suniang. In Dou's mother's words, there are men working in the first and second rooms of the family. If you have no men in the third room, you will naturally have to do it yourself, or let your son You can go.

Poor little Dou Su, who was only three years old, was assigned to work in the farmland.

Dou Suniang had no choice but to grit her teeth. After less than two years, she fell ill.

The Dou family saw that the big one was sick, and the young one was still young. They were all wasting food. In addition, the Dou family had no shortage of boys. Together, they simply separated the mother and child.

Dou Suniang is also a successful man. Knowing that the man is gone, she refuses to take out the money from her private house. Even if she is about to die of illness when she is in Dou's house, she refuses to take out a penny. She just says that she will have no money .She knew that those were life-saving money for both mother and son.

After the mother and son were separated, Dou Suniang had no choice but to take out the last money to treat her own illness, and even bought a small thatched cottage.

It's a pity that her body was broken after all, and after two years of strong support, she was gone, leaving only a six or seven-year-old little Dou Su, living a difficult life in the world alone.

Originally, Dou Su still had a thatched cottage, but it happened that there was a leak in the house, and it rained all night. I don’t know if the people who built the thatched cottage didn’t do their best. Not long after his mother left, the house also collapsed.

People in the village thought he was pitiful, and someone would secretly give him something to eat. As a result, Dou's mother thought that Xiao Dou Su was a disaster. If you give Xiao Dou Su stuffing to eat, you will even scold that person together.

Originally, people were also kind, but in the end, their kindness was not reciprocated, and people cursed, who would be happy?

Well, others don't bother to take care of your old Dou family's own affairs.

As a result, Xiao Dou Su was completely left alone, and became a wild child that everyone despised.

In the end, he had no other choice, and he didn't know who told him that there was a ruined temple on Liupan Mountain, so he simply ran to live in the ruined temple.

Relying on digging wild vegetables in the mountains, making some small traps to catch prey, and digging up some tree roots to eat when he was really hungry, he stumbled and actually supported himself.
