However, her father had promised her that as long as she could survive until the show was over, he would buy her those new models.

Forget it, just bear with it for the sake of getting the things you love.

Outside the window, the sky gradually darkened. In the distant night sky, there were many twinkling stars. The pure white moonlight scattered on the ground, coating everything in the world with a faint layer of silver.

A wave of intense urge to urinate assaulted her. The green bamboo quivered for a moment, then was immediately jolted awake.

Dazed, she opened her eyes and looked around. She saw that she was lying on the ground in the backyard, an axe by her hand.

As the autumn wind blew, the girl shivered and sat up on her hands, trying to remember why she was lying here.

She had been working. After chopping most of the bundles of firewood, he felt an aching pain from his waist and back, causing his arm to go numb. He wanted to stand up and stretch his arm, but he suddenly felt dizzy and lost consciousness.

Alas, she was useless! How could he faint after being unable to eat even one or two meals? It seemed like Aunt was right. If she couldn't do anything well, all she knew was to eat.

While the green bamboo was still in a daze, someone ran over from afar.

"Hey, what are you doing sitting on the ground? Well, Mother told you to work, and you've got the nerve to skate around here. I'm going to tell Mother and see if she hits you or not. "

The pillar stood before her, pretending to speak.

Previously, when Qingzhu went to look for him at his classmates' house, Zhu Zhu didn't want to come back with her. Back then, she had used his mother to scare him. He firmly remembered this grudge. Now that he had found the opportunity, how could he let it go so easily?

This was what he called 'returning the favor to others in his own way'. Anyone who had offended him wouldn't have a good ending.

"I'm not slacking off." Green Bamboo stood up with a grunt, dusted off the dust on his butt, and explained.

"It's useless to quibble with her. When we get to mom's place, she'll believe you or me." Pillar lifted the back of his hand and wiped his nose.

Upon hearing this, the green bamboo wilted like a frosted eggplant.

Once the pillar went to complain, there was no need to think about it. Her aunt definitely wouldn't believe her. When the time came, he would not be able to avoid a beating.

There was a saying that a good woman did not suffer losses before the eyes. One couldn't be too stubborn, one had to admit when they needed to. No matter what, he couldn't let his body suffer.

Therefore, she scratched her head and softened her tone. Don't tell Auntie, okay? "

"Aiyo, so pitiful!" The pillar's large eyes rolled a couple of times and then laughed: "Actually, it's not that hard to keep secrets for you. Help me with my Chinese Literature homework. Just now when you were slacking off, I'll just pretend I didn't see it. "

He finished his math homework. As he hated writing, he had to do his homework for the rest of the class. Right when he was worrying about what he should do, he found a way to resolve it.

"Alright!" In order to avoid being beaten, the green bamboo had no choice but to accept the challenge.

Most of the adults in the village had never gone to school before. Most of them were old and coarse. Only Grandma Yu was an exception. She came from a prestigious family. When she was young, she was a lady. She was proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. She was also an expert in poetry and poetry.

When the old man's mood was good, he would call Qing Zhu to his side and teach her how to read or recite Tang poetry. The green bamboo was very diligent. He had learned a lot over the years. Other subjects aside, in this area, it was not any worse than the children of the same age who were currently in school.

Normally, she would finish her work at home before going next door to study. However, she was worried that her aunt might misunderstand her laziness and might not be able to explain herself, so she always carried people behind her back in the past.

Once, Granny Yu gave her a simple storybook. The green bamboo was hiding in the corner and watching with fascination when it was caught by the pillar.

After that, Pillar had repeatedly asked his cousin to do his homework for him. Green Bamboo felt that this was not good and rejected it every time. However, in order to avoid this beating, he had to compromise.

"I promise, but not now." Green Bamboo hopped on the spot a few times and discussed with his cousin, "Just now I drank quite a bit of water and now my stomach is bloating. I want to go to the latrine first. Wait a minute, won't you? "

"Yes!" You can finish your homework before you go to school tomorrow. No rush. " When Pillar saw that his threat had worked, he was overjoyed. Then, he changed the topic, "I can wait, but I'm afraid I can't delay it!

Five minutes ago, she asked me to tell you to go to the kitchen and wash the dishes and clean up the stove. Mother also said, give you ten minutes to finish these tasks. Otherwise, we'll punish you to run a few laps around the village if you have to. "

"Aiya, why didn't you say so earlier? Pillar, you're too much of a swindler. " Green Bamboo gnashed his teeth. His little face was red with anger, and he really wanted to kick him a few times.

Her blood sugar was too low. If she ran a few laps around the village, she would faint again.

"Didn't I forget!" Pillar spread his hands and said with an innocent expression.

She did not bother to settle the score with her cousin. She resisted the urge to pee and, in an extremely strange posture, jogged all the way to the kitchen.

There were still five minutes left, not enough time to clean the kitchen or wash the dishes. His aunt's orders couldn't be delayed, so he could only endure for now.

Looking at his cousin's sorry figure, Zhu Zhu playfully stuck out his tongue, feeling very proud of himself.

You want to go to the latrine? Haha, hold it in!

Actually, Qu Shufen had only asked him to pass the message to Qingzhu and ask her to go back to work. There was no fixed time. As for punishing her for running in circles or something, it was all made up out of pillars to deceive others.

The old man next door, the one surnamed Yu, usually praised his cousin, saying that she was smarter than him, more hardworking, and so on. Anywhere was better than him.

He didn't understand. How could his cousin compare to him? Other than remembering things a little faster and eating whatever was left over from the fire, that ugly little eye was nothing good at all, alright?

Qing Zhu was a wild child. No one had ever seen her father, and her mother was a murderer.

In terms of knowledge, he could read and write. He was already in the second grade. Mom and Dad said they would send him to college in the city. When he grew up, he would definitely be more promising than his cousin.

She hadn't even learned for a day. Even though she could read a few words, what could she learn from old lady Yu? A little girl, even if she was a little smart, what good was that! In a few years, wouldn't he be like those other aunts and find an elder sister-in-law who didn't despise her and marry her?

A woman without talent is a virtue. After marriage, you can take good children and serve a good man every day.

Moreover, no matter how smart and hardworking she was, what could she do? Wasn't it still at the hands of the pillar that caused him to scare them one by one?

After drying the last bowl, Green Bamboo lifted his thin arm and wiped the sweat off his forehead.

Dang Dang Dang … The old-fashioned clock in the makeshift guest room rang seven times.

She counted on her fingers. It was 6: 52 when she got the news and rushed to the kitchen to start cleaning up the stove. Even though he had already taken out his fastest speed, it still took him more than three minutes to do so.

It looked like he could not avoid this punishment.

If he surrounded such a huge village, he could run three laps around it... When the punishment was over, it would be hard to say whether or not her little life would still be there.

Fine, let's run! If one could hide from the first day of life, one could not hide from fifteen years of age. I might as well die early and reincarnate.
