"Ma'am, ma'am, something has happened Three members of Shen Jingli's family were having breakfast when Li Qi ran in and yelled: "master, madam, there is a man in the henhouse.
Shen Jingli's first reaction was that a thief came to steal his chicken. It was a pheasant that he had raised for a long time. It was bright in color and delicious in meat. He could not bear to eat it. How dare someone steal it?
He immediately face a black, support waist to stand up, sternly way: "catch him quickly, send to see an official."
If you dare to steal his chicken, you will kill him.
Seeing Shen Jingli excited, Mu Chen quickly got up to help him and persuade him, "don't get excited. In the daytime, he can't steal your chicken."
Li Qi is totally confused. Who is going to steal the chicken? Why doesn't he know?
Shen Jingli hurried out of the door, only to find Li Qi still Leng at the door, silly Leng silly Leng, looking at a bit stupid, he then turned back and called, "what are you doing? Let's go. We'll run away.
Oh... " Li Qi was called back to God and quickly chased up.
When he went to the chicken house, Shen Jingli was completely dumbfounded. He pointed to the dirty little boy in the corner of the henhouse and asked, "is this what you call a chicken thief?"
… "When did he say there was a chicken thief? Li Qi felt that she had been accused.
In the corner of the chicken house sat a child. She was dressed in a thin single dress, with rice soil on her face and body, and the scars of chickens on her hands. She looked extremely embarrassed.
She sat like a log with her hands on her knees. When she saw Shen Jingli, her eyes suddenly brightened and soon became dim.
Although her face was dirty and she could not recognize her outline, Shen Jingli still recognized her sister Shen Yueer, who was the younger sister of the original owner. Didn't she follow the Zhang family back to the Shen family? Why are you here
"what are you doing here?" The relationship between Shen Jingli and Shen Yueer is not good, but Shen Yuer is Shen Jiawei, a person who has not bullied Shen Jingli, and Shen Jingli does not show her face.
I have no place to go. "Shen Yueer lowered her head and said sadly. "What is no place to go?
Shen yue'er didn't speak. She just cried wrongly. She felt very sad. Her mother-in-law pushed her to the mountain bandits for her own sake. Those mountain bandits didn't harm her. She ran to her sister, but she wanted to give her to a man who was about 60 years old to be a concubine. How could she be so cruel to her?
I didn't beat you, I didn't scold you, what did you cry for? " Not accustomed to her appearance, Shen Jingli suddenly became angry.
Shen yue'er cried louder as if she had been wronged.
Facing a 13-year-old girl, who is also the owner's sister, Shen Jingli has never been cruel, "when did you come? Eat Haven't eaten in days?
He wanted to ask her if she had breakfast, but when he saw her waxy face, he changed another question.
"I didn't eat all day yesterday." Don't say it's OK. As soon as she says her stomach, she coos. Shen yue'er covers her stomach and blushes.
Shen Jingli looked at her pathetic appearance, sighed, and said to mammy Jin, "take her to a bath first, and then come and have breakfast.
Mother Jin takes Shen Yueer back to the house where she lives with Li Qi, burns water for her bath, and changes Li Qi's old clothes a little. Then she takes her to see Shen Jingli.
The three members of the Mu family have eaten well. Mu Chen sits on the Luohan bed and reads the military books. Shen Jingli sits next to him and reads the script sent by Liu xingzu. Mu Jin doesn't know where to play for a long time.
After washing, Shen Yueer looks much better. However, she is still an unsightly and malnourished child. Her hair is dim and dull, like a pile of withered grass. Her face is sallow and thin. She looks no better than Shen Jingli.
"Have breakfast first." Shen Jingli looked at the things on the table and continued to look at the words in his hand.
Shen yue'er looks at the lean porridge on the table, white steamed bun, fresh soybean milk, flustered, don't know how to do?
The Shen family is also a family with better conditions. But every day, there is only a pot of porridge and a dish of pickled vegetables for breakfast. Occasionally, a few nephews can drink some soymilk and eat fried dough sticks. She is not good. It's good to have porridge and pickled vegetables.
She never thought about such a good breakfast.
Swallowing with saliva, Shen yue'er does not dare to eat these breakfast generously. She was oppressed by servility, which made her dare not enjoy good things.
"Why not move?" Shen Jingli is immersed in the story of Huaben. This story is about a scholar and a pair of children. The content of the story is not as interesting as modern novels, but the personality of the pair of children is Shen Jingli's favorite. What's more, the Huaben describes the appearance of the pair of children.
"Fourth brother, I don't have to have such a good breakfast." Really, she just needs a bowl of congee.
Shen Jingli raised his head from the book, "you hurry to eat, this is our leftover food, not specially cooked for you, you do not misunderstand."
The Shen family are really guilty. What kind of children have they developed?
Shen yue'er began to sit down for breakfast. The porridge was delicious and smooth. The steamed stuffed buns were filled with mushrooms and meat. She was satisfied and frightened."Don't eat too much. It's bad for your stomach.
Shen yue'er, who still wanted to eat, put down her chopsticks when she heard him say so. She touched her full stomach and felt a little trance.
When Shen Yueer has a good rest and the whole person is relaxed, Shen Jingli begins to ask questions. "What the hell happened? Will you come here? "
Shen yue'er is silent for a moment and gives a detailed account of what happened after she left the Shen family that day.
Hearing her say that she met a mountain Bandit on the way, Shen Jingli looked at Mu Chen with some doubts. How could he meet a mountain Bandit on the way? What's more, it's the official way of people coming and going?
"The mountain bandit is really rampant." He said in a strange way.
"Yes, those mountain bandits are fierce." Shen yue'er agreed with this saying, "my mother pushed me to the mountain bandits, but those mountain bandits didn't look up to me. I cried for a long time. Before dark, I went to see sister Meier and begged her to take me in. She was very kind to me at first.
Shen yue'er seemed to think of something, and suddenly began to cry. The more she cried, the more she was sad, she almost couldn't breathe.
"The third brother-in-law has a grandfather who is nearly 60 years old. Recently, he wants to take a young concubine. My sister wants to give me to him
Shen yue'er feels aggrieved in the heart very much, that is her own elder sister, how can bear to push her into the fire pit?
"Fourth brother..." She rushed to Shen Jingli and knelt at his feet. "Fourth brother, please take me in. I will work. I will do anything. I don't want to be a concubine for a 60 year old man, and I don't want to be sold to the brothel. Fourth brother, please help me
She held Shen Jingli's leg and cried like she wanted to cry all her grievances.
Shen Jingli looked back at Mu Chen like asking for help. Mu Chen looked at her unwillingly and said, "you live next door with mammy Jin. You can do what they want you to do. Don't move your wrong mind. Otherwise Her sharp eyes are like sharp blades. Shen Yueer is scared and sweating. She dare not say "no" at all.
Shen Yueer cried for a while, and then was taken away by mammy Jin. Li Qi had deep hostility to Shen family and made all kinds of difficulties to Shen Yuer.
Shen yue'er stayed like this.
Shen Jingli doesn't like this cheap sister, and usually pays little attention to her. Mother Jin and Li Qi don't like the Shen family, so they let Shen Yueer do all kinds of work. Even so, living in the Mu family makes Shen Yueer very satisfied.
"No, I can't hurt the fourth brother." Shen Yueer shakes her head.
Shen's brother is similar to Shen qiuer in front of her.
What do you mean, little sister? Do you mean that I will harm the fourth brother? "Shen Qiuming yelled discontentedly. For a moment, he covered his mouth for fear of being found out, and said in a low voice," I just asked you to get some money for me. There have been a lot of problems in my family recently. The elder brother offended the son of councilor Zhang when he went to a brothel. He was sent to prison. His second brother broke a leg when he went to gambling. His parents were all crazy. You dare to hide in the fourth brother to enjoy it Look for death.
Shen Qiuming reached out and hit Shen Yueer a few times, "hurry to get some money for me, otherwise I will sell you to a brothel."
Shen yue'er still shakes his head, "I don't have money, and I won't steal money from fourth brother." Fourth brother is willing to take her in. She is already kind. She can't do that kind of cruel thing.
Shen yue'er turns around and walks away. Shen Qiuming is angry. She grabs her hair and reaches out to beat her. "Shen yue'er, I'm your brother. How can you survive?
Two brothers and sisters tangled together to fight. At this time, Li Qi's voice came, "Shen yue'er, where are you going to be lazy again? Come back to work
Hearing Li Qi's voice, Shen Yueer struggles fiercely. She reaches out and slaps Shen Qiuming. She covers Shen Qiuming and takes the opportunity to run back.
Shen Jingli just came back from a walk. As soon as Shen Qiuming saw him, he was filled with jealousy and resentment. Suddenly, he had evil intentions and rushed out to push him.
Shen Jingli was suddenly pushed, and the whole situation fell back. He hugged his stomach in fear and subconsciously
Hearing the sound, Shen Yuer turned back and saw Shen Jingli lying on the ground pale, with bright red blood seeping between her legs. She glared with amazement and rushed up to Shen Qiuming, shouting: "brother Li Qi, help, my brother fell down
Li Qi was scared out of his seven spirits, and quickly called out," help, help, look for someone The doctor
SHEN Qiuming took the opportunity to give Shen Yueer a push and ran away.
When Mu Chen came back, he only heard Shen Jingli's incessant shouts and basins of blood and water from the outside. He felt a stream of hot blood rushing to his forehead and immediately wanted to break into the delivery room, but Li Qi stopped him.
"Master, you can't go in..." Li Qi was shaking all over her body, and her voice was full of crying.
Get out of here. I'm going in to see him. "Mu Chen pushed Li Qi away and tried to break through, but she was stopped by mother Jin.
"Master, men are not allowed to enter the delivery room. This is not auspicious. It is not good for the wife and young masterHearing that it would be bad for Shen Jingli, Mu Chen stopped, but he couldn't rest assured. His eyes were cold and he turned to go out. Mu Jin immediately followed him.
