Upon hearing that he had offended Xu Qiuyi, Hu San was so scared that he did not dare to stop. He patted his butt and ran off. However, he did not forget to leave a promissory note for him. Of course, he even left a handprint on it. The only thing Nona felt was like crying as she looked at the messy house and the twenty taels of promissory notes in her hands.

"Truly f * cking …"

It was really a f * cking tragedy. Jiu Niang felt that she was truly tragic to the extreme. Why did it feel as if all the bad things were happening to her? "Forget it, forget it. At least I'm still alive and well."

Alright, this was the only thing she could do to comfort herself.

In any case, he was still fine, and Hu San didn't really sell himself out.

Eyebrows... Actually, it wasn't that Hu Sanxin was a good person, but rather … However, Hu San knew that even if he sold her like this, he wouldn't be able to buy her for much money. In the worst case scenario, no one would want her. If he saw her face, he would probably be scared. It was just like what she said to Hu San. Even though it was meant to frighten him, it was an indisputable fact. If he really could sell it, then perhaps Lady Yu would have already sold it for free …

"Sigh, we still have to live our days. We can't starve to death."

Feeling helpless, Jiu Niang shook her head. She felt that she had a tragic ending. She had never thought that one day she would have such a tragedy. She was truly unlucky. Fortunately, she still had room. She wouldn't have to worry about starving herself to death. But...

"Sigh, I'm finished!"

Fine, it really was over. After searching for half a day, Jiu Niang realized that there wasn't even a single grain of rice left in her house.

Not to mention seeds.

Without seeds, what was the use of having space? If he had the seed, he would still be able to obtain various things. At the very least, he wouldn't have to worry about starving to death. But now …

"The heck, are you really trying to kill me?"

Jiu Niang really wanted to die. If she knew earlier, she wouldn't have bothered to come back. Even if she did come back, she would have at least received some silver taels. What's the use of backbone? In a situation where you don't eat or drink, what's the price of backbone? It was a pity that everything was too late, and he was no longer in a hurry to regret it.

"Forget it, forget it. We still have some land to live on. It can't be that there's nothing to worry about, right?"

In the end, Jiu Niang could only console herself. At least they still had some territory. Gu Yu's always been busy until very late in the night in the field. Now that she took her brother away and moved everything in the house, she can't bring anything back with her from the fields, can she? Thinking of this, Jiu Niang didn't dare to delay any longer and quickly ran into her own field.

Alright, in truth, it wasn't hers at all. It was just something she rented.

"What the f * ck!" No way, this... "The f * ck …"

But when Jiu Niang saw the field, she suddenly felt bad.

At a glance, the field was filled with dead rice. There were only a few trees that still had a bit of green in them, not to mention the tall grasses in the fields, making it impossible to find anything that had been planted in the past.

Looking at the scene before her, there was only one thought on Nona's mind. Even the heavens would want to destroy her.

Yes, this was a chance that even the heavens would not give him to live.

"It's over!"

Yeah, it's over, it's f * cking over.

"Sigh, indeed, even the heavens want to destroy me!"

She slumped to the ground, feeling like she wanted to cry but had no tears to shed.

Now, not only did he have nothing, he also had a huge debt of money. If she remembered correctly, these fields belonged to someone else. Every year, she would give him a lot of food.

Now that there was no harvest in the fields, then … That...

Ah ah ah ah!

In his hand was a promissory note worth 20 taels of silver, and he had no money left in the fields …

Was he really going to be forced to die?

"Forget it, forget it. When the time comes, there will be a way out. How can a living person be choked to death by urine?"

Taking a deep breath, Nona decided to take it step by step. Since the situation was already like this, no matter how unhappy she was at the moment, there was nothing she could do. It would be better not to think about it.

Nona checked carefully and found that there was still a portion of seedlings in the field that had already sprouted. There was still a bit of green left, and they had not completely dried up yet. She decided to just pull them out from the field and transfer them into the space. There was nothing she could do now, so she decided to just give it a shot. Although she didn't know if she could support herself in the space, if she put it in the field, it would definitely be a dead end.

"Sigh, there's no other way."

In the end, Jiu Niang counted about a hundred seedlings. She planted a small piece in the space and then inspected her own field and found that one or two sweet potato vines were still alive, so she decided to bring them all into the space without any hesitation. Since it was a dead end now, she might as well try it and see if she could survive in the space.

Alright, to be honest, she didn't know if she would be able to survive. It was just that in the past, when she found a seed and sprinkled it in space, it would grow out very quickly. As for this kind of suicidal Miao'er, this was truly her first time trying …

Nona was tired and hungry, and dragged her tired body home, but before she could even enter the house, she saw several people standing in front of her house, each of them looking very ferocious. Nona had seen this person before, and this person was none other than the village's landlord.

"Old master, do you need anything?"

In the past, it was only Mrs. Gu Yu who contacted him, but now that Mrs. Gu had left with Gu Jinyu, he was the only one at home. Although Jiu Niang didn't want to, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and greet him.

The second brother stared at her with a dark face, and said coldly after a long while, "Hmph! Don't think that just because your mother left your family that you don't need to give her any food. This year's rent will double, you should prepare earlier! "

This Gu Yu clan wasn't originally from this village, but was a foreigner. Six or seven years ago, a woman came to the village with two children. Second Brother Cai originally wanted to take pity on her and let her rent the land. In these years, she was always honest and paid the rent every year on time. Although Gu Jinyu could not see, she was smart and had read well. These days, everyone had some respect for scholars, so he only took care of the Gu family and didn't urge them to rent anything. Two days ago, he suddenly heard that Lady Gu had run off with his son. He didn't believe it before, but today, he came to take a look …

He really didn't expect that Gu Yu would really run away.

This year, almost all the crops in the village were in trouble. Although this Gu Yu family didn't have many fields, it was a huge blow to her to run away without a word at this moment. If all the tenants ran away without a sound like her, then who would be the one to compensate her for her losses?

"Ah …" It can't be? "

Double?

Instantly, Jiu Niang couldn't help but scream out loud.

The heck, what is going on?

All the rice in the fields had already died. At this time, he wanted to teach them double. Wasn't this a joke? Where could she have doubled it for him? This, if this isn't bullying, then what is?

"Master, you … "Look at this year …"

"Humph!" I don't care, double! "Remember to give me a thousand catties of rice when the time comes!"

Nine's family only had more than one mu of land, plus half an acre of land, it should only be two acres, compared to five hundred catties in the past …

Originally, Second Brother Cai was not a bad person. In the past, if he encountered a calamity, he would definitely take a bit less.

However, this Gu Yu family took their son and ran away at this kind of time. It was like a fierce slap on the face of Second Brother Cai, leaving him with no face at all. Not only that, he was also worried that those families that had suffered serious disasters would run away like Gu Yu, so how much would he lose?

Now, Gu Yu's departure was actually a good thing, causing the entire village to be in a state of panic.

Since his mother had run away, he naturally had to look for her.

Alright, he actually understood that all of this had nothing to do with Jiu Niang. Nona was just a little girl. Gu Yu's escape all those years ago had only brought her son, but he had actually managed to match his daughter. He really had a heart of his own. In his heart, he sympathized with Jiu Niang, but sympathizing with her was still part of the rules. There was no limit to the so-called rules. If everyone just left like that, then he wouldn't be able to live his life anymore.

"Master, this... "I, I …"

"Hmph, let's go!"

F * * k, no way, this is simply unfair. She is also a victim.

Nona's heart was filled with hatred. She still wanted to explain something, but … Second brother Cai didn't even give her a chance to explain before he turned around and left.

Only Nona was left in a mess in the wind.

"F * ck, what a f * cking dog."

Nona could no longer hold it in and directly swore.

That's right, she was really unlucky. Not only was she almost sold to a fool as a wife, she was even beaten half to death. If it wasn't for Xu Tianlong, she might have already become a ghost. Now, he finally came back alive. Once he got home, he was the only one left at home, and all the things that could be taken away were taken away by Gu Yu's family. If you say you left, then so be it. This Gu Yu family actually borrowed a usury, and they even found something for him to pay back in the future. Furthermore, this was a high interest loan, who knew how much he would have to pay in the future. Even now, the usury has yet to be figured out, yet another double the rent …

Nona felt that Alexander was the only one who could sit on the ground.

He had never felt such great pressure, and he felt that living was not an easy task.

"No, no, you can't give up, Nona. You'll definitely be able to make it."

After sitting for who knows how long, Nona slapped herself hard on the face. She was no longer close to the house, so she turned around and started walking into the mountains. Since there was nothing to eat at home, he might as well go into the mountains and find something to eat. This way, at least he wouldn't starve to death immediately, and the future would have to wait.

As the sun was setting, everyone was busy heading home. Only Nona was walking towards the mountains. Under the setting sun, the thin shadow of the old elder looked especially forlorn as it was pulled back by the sunlight.

"Ah, isn't that the Gu family's little girl?"

"That's her."

"Sigh, the sky is about to turn dark. Does she still want to enter the mountain?"

"Looks like it."

In the village, those who had rushed back from the fields couldn't help but take a second look at Nona as she headed towards the mountains.

In the past, because of her unsightly appearance, Jiu Niang was rejected by the children in the village and rarely went into the village. As for the reborn Jiu Niang, because she was an adult in her heart, she naturally had less contact with the children in the village and thus was not familiar with the people in the village.

"Sigh, he's also pitiful."

"Then Gu Yu's heart is really ruthless. I couldn't even tell before."
