The noise outside had stopped. Su Xinyu did not dare to touch the place. Firstly, it was because she had the little girl's memories, but the little girl was still too young, and there were many things that she did not understand. Even if she did think about them and found out the truth behind them, a little girl this young could only blame herself for her mother.
After waiting for a while and hearing the sound of the door opening, Su Xinyu knew that this soft and soft sound must be the little girl's mother's Madam Su.
This little girl was just like her mother, he had no name. When the little girl was born, Zhou Sanlang was still taking the High Scholar's examination in the city, and the Zhou Family elders originally thought that Madam Su could give birth to a son, making them extremely happy. He did not expect that the first Madam Su machine to produce such a small loss of money. Furthermore, there was a red birthmark on his chest, looking extremely similar to a ball of fire. This caused Mother Zhou to have an excuse to say that this child was unlucky with Madam Su. However, before she could lose her temper, someone came outside to report that it was Zhou Sanlang who had passed the High Scholar examination, and was in fifth place at that. To a village like theirs who had never seen a High Scholar before, this was a joyous event.
Hearing this good news, the Village Head and Zhou Clan Head immediately came to congratulate him. The Village Head's wife even went to congratulate him on his Madam Su. When she saw that Madam Su and the little girl did not receive any good care, she was extremely displeased and went out to inform the crowd. This little girl had an auspicious seal on her, which showed how wealthy she was. Furthermore, after marrying the Madam Su, Zhou Sanlang had become an Elementary Scholar, and this year she had just gotten a new son, and she had already become a High Scholar.
No matter how bored father, mother and Chow Dalang's couple were, this argument was accepted by the whole village. It even spread to the surrounding villages and towns very quickly. It was also because of this that although Zhou Family was supposed to be a barrier between mother and daughter, they did not dare to make things difficult for them in public. Otherwise, with this family's harsh nature, the mother and daughter pair would have long been tortured to death.
In fact, the mother and daughter pair could survive only because they had to endure Madam Su, and of course, because they were diligent and capable. Madam Su married Zhou Sanlang at the age of fifteen, and was also the prettiest girl in the entire Ten Li Eight Village at the time. Many families were fighting to marry her. However, after Madam Su's parents were bitten to death by wild wolves on the mountain, the days of Su Family plummeted. Madam Su's older brother was a simple and honest man who only married his current wife, the Zhao Family, at the age of twenty. Mrs Zhao was also a well-known shrew. Apart from being good to her parents-in-law, she didn't like her sister-in-law at all. In this way, there was no hope for his Madam Su to be borrowed from his family.
In this era, women had no family to rely on if they didn't have the love of a husband. If that woman bullied him, she could only swallow her anger. Since Madam Su was as soft as her mother's, in Zhou Family, she had to open her eyes in the morning to wash clothes and cook, and only after she had washed her feet at night could she return to her daughter's room to rest. It was because they were afraid that others would speak ill of them, and also because they, San'er, was a High Scholar, that they allowed Madam Su to not have to work in the fields at home.
Su Xinyu organized the little girl's memories. The reason why the little girl fainted was entirely because of Chow Dalang's wife, Madam Wang.
In Zhou Family, the two of them have a fixed number of things to eat. Furthermore, because the Zhou Family had provided Zhou Sanlang with money to read books and dress himself up, he had actually lived a miserable life. Not just the two of them, but the others didn't have much to eat either. However, the little girl didn't have enough to eat. Every morning half a bowl of rice soup and half a steamed bun, at night a bowl of rice soup. She didn't dare to take any of the dishes.
Actually, the rice soup was still rather nutritious and was a good meal for children. But the Rice Soup here was very different from the Rice Soup that Su Xinyu had cooked previously. This rice soup was the very thin type that was scooped out after boiling the rice. Moreover, Zhou Family could not afford white rice, and all he ate was rice mixed with rice cooked from brown rice and other grains. These grains could not all be nourished at the same time, so the difference between rice soup and water only had a little bit of the taste of grain.
Su Xinyu originally thought that the little girl was only two or three years old, but in reality, she was already more than four years old. A four year old child in modern times was more or less worthy of being worshiped like a ancestor. However, the four-year-old girl had to help choose vegetables to take care of the backyard, feeding the chickens and eggs to dig up wild vegetables or even firewood. Her chronic malnutrition made her look dark and thin, and her eyes unattractive. The most important thing was that his hands were pitch black and already had some calluses on them.
This morning, the little girl didn't have any steamed buns to eat, so she was really hungry. She secretly went to the kitchen and scooped up half a spoonful of rice soup for herself. This was how Madam Wang found out, and directly carried the little girl to the courtyard to give her a beating. Not only that, she even started yelling that Madam Su had raised a little thief.
Where did this girl go? Her body was already thin and weak. Coupled with her fear, she fainted very quickly. When she saw that her daughter had fainted and had lost all signs of life, for the first time, she had the strength to resist. She instantly pushed Madam Wang away and carried her daughter back to her room. But no matter how she called out for the little girl, she didn't seem to wake up.
Su Xinyu knew that the little girl had already stopped breathing at that time. Otherwise, she wouldn't have had the chance to attach his soul to her body and revive her. But even if the little girl was already dead, not only was Zhou Family not anxious, but because of the Madam Su, both Zhou father and mother, and even the Chow Dalang had come out to scold Madam Su for being uncultured, wanting to divorce her!
It was only after someone from the neighborhood sneaked into the Village Head's house and told the Village Chief's wife that she came to "inquire" about the matter that the matter came to an end.
Therefore, at this time, the one who pushed the door open was not only Madam Su, but also the Village Chief's wife, Madam Zhang.
Su Xinyu had long reclined back when she heard the voice. However, Su Xinyu knew that she was too young now, even if her brain was that of an adult's, she still couldn't change her body as fast as she could. However, children had their own benefits. Children could try their best to gain people's sympathy, and people, whether they were good or fake, liked to sympathize with the weaker party. Without a doubt, in everyone's eyes, she and the little girl's mother were the weakest.
Madam Su squatted down beside the bed and looked at his daughter who still had her eyes closed. She only dared to shed tears when she was sure her daughter was angry. But he didn't dare to cry out loud.
Madam Zhang's mother and Madam Su's aunt had done the same, so the two of them did not interact much. In the end, they were married to the same village, so their hearts had a few more points. Moreover, she really did not see Zhou Tian's face as worthy of attention. Back then, they had calculated the eight words of Madam Su and said that they could command the Wangfwang Family, so they invited their father-in-law to be the mediator, bringing the betrothal gift and the Su Family of the matchmaker to propose marriage. Later on, the Madam Su really did make Zhou Sanlang strong, but this family had the face to despise Madam Su as a country woman, and did not see that they were unworthy of being the High Scholar's wife. But they didn't think that their family was also farming. "What face do you have to despise others?" Don't cry. Nothing is better than nothing. When your husband comes back from the capital, the two of you will have a better time. "
But Madam Su shook his head while crying. In this Zhou Family, the mother and daughter pair had no hopes whatsoever. The only thing she could do was to spend one day at a time …
