Yang Ruoqing frowned, "Your father is so ridiculous, a bastard!"
Xiaohua's tears fell into the dishwater in front of her.
"What's even more ridiculous is yet to come," she said.
"He owed money to an old landlord in the next village. The old landlord had a stupid son. He was fifteen or sixteen years old, and he still squatted on the bed and pooped and played with birds."
"My father took Xiaoduo directly to be a child bride for the old landlord's stupid son."
"The old landowner was very happy when he saw Xiao Duo's clever appearance. Not only did he forgive my father's debt, but he also rewarded him with an extra two taels of silver and two half-sized piglets."
"My father raised those two piglets and didn't castrate them. He drove them from ten miles to eight villages to breed with other people's sows. Each breeding cost five cents."
"Later, they matched each other. That kind of pig made a widowed sow from the next village pregnant with piglets. He himself also made the widow pregnant..."
At this point, Xiaohua paused.
I really have no shame in saying these irritating words, but I’ve already started talking and it’s hard to stop.
Next to her, Yang Ruoqing also had black streaks all over her head, the little flower dad was a scumbag, and the widow was not a good person either.
Seeing Xiaohua's appearance, Yang Ruoqing guessed that she might be embarrassed and embarrassed to continue.
"We've already talked about it for this reason, so of course it's time to finish. You go on." Yang Ruoqing said.
Xiaohua nodded and continued: "Of course my father married the widow. The widow also brought over a girl who is about the same age as me and calls me sister. She was born to the man in front of me."
"The widow behaves in front of others and behaves in another way. In front of the villagers, she calls me my precious daughter, my darling, and so on. When I turn her back, she beats and scolds me."
"In that family, I was basically their mother and daughter's slave. I slept in the woodshed. They didn't give me any shoes to wear in the cold weather. As long as my father had wine to drink, he didn't care about anything."
"After the widow came in, she gave birth to a younger brother. My father seemed to have a treasure. Under the whipping of the widow, he began to work hard, saying that he would not be able to pass on the family property to his son in the future."
"My father started to run a small business in partnership with others, and he only came home once a month or two."
"The widow was unwilling to be lonely and hooked up with a cousin of my father's. The two of them were causing trouble in the hut, and I happened to catch them."
"The widow was cruel and planned to drown me in the latrine to silence me."
"That cousin watched me grow up, so he felt a little compassion and stopped me."
"That cousin said that killing a child is unethical and will bring retribution to his own son in the future. The widow may be a little taboo about this, so she found a trap to sell me before my father came back."
"It happened that the girl she brought here couldn't hide her words and spilled the beans, so I ran away before her."
"On the way, we met Xiaoduo who was also running away. It turned out that Xiaoduo couldn't bear the torture of the old landlord's silly son. So, we two troubled sisters ran away together."
"Halfway through the escape, I was so hungry that I ran into a kind-hearted lady."
"Xiaoduo and I were just over seven years old at the time. We couldn't tell who was the good guy and who was the bad guy at all. We only knew that whoever gave us food was good."
"The aunt gave each of us a pancake. After eating the pancake, we both passed out. When we woke up, we found that we were locked in a stone room. In that room, besides Xiaoduo and I, there were There are several little boys and girls about our age.”
"There is no door or windows in the house. There are many lanterns hanging in the house. Usually the lanterns are extinguished and covered with black cloth."
"When the black cloth comes off and the lantern lights up, a man as fat as a pig will come in, with a three-tiered chin, like a Buddha..."
"That fat man is Pang Pang, the good man. The stone house you are staying in is the secret room used by Pang Pang to worship." Yang Ruoqing interrupted.
Xiaohua nodded, "We can't understand what the fat man is worshiping, and he says something we don't understand to a Buddhist altar that is scary to look at."
"After that, they will select a child from among us, smash the child's head with a small hammer, collect the brains and blood, put them in a big bowl, and burn the spell into ashes and scatter it Go into that bowl..."
Xiaohua couldn't speak anymore, she bit her lip and frowned.
Yang Ruoqing's stomach was also churning. She took a deep breath and said: "That great good man is from the Black Lotus Sect. He is performing an evil ritual within the sect. He wants to use the head of a child to sacrifice. It's too cruel. What a beast!"
Recalling the past, Xiaohua's face turned pale and her hands trembled slightly.
"During those days when we were imprisoned in the huge good person's secret room, Xiaoduo and I were terribly afraid every day, especially when we saw the children who came in before us, one by one having their heads ripped out and dying. Everyone is going crazy."
"Fortunately, God bless me. Sister, you and your brother-in-law came and rescued us two from that hellish place."
"Xiaoduo and I have occasionally talked about these things together in the past few years. We feel like we have lived a new life. Where we came from before and who are the people in our hometown are all things from the previous life. I don't want to mention it anymore, so just I think I can’t remember it at all!”
After listening to Xiaohua's words, Yang Ruoqing's eyes were filled with distress.
She came over, raised her hand and rubbed Xiaohua's hair, and said softly: "Okay, everything is over, don't be afraid, we are a real family, no one can bully you anymore!"
Xiaohua nodded with tears in her eyes.
"I remember the name of the village I used to live in. It was called Zha Shuwan, and everyone in the village had the surname Zha."
That is a veritable scumbag dad, Yang Ruoqing thought to herself.
Wait, Zanshuwan?
She seemed to have heard it somewhere, but she couldn't remember it at this time.
At this moment, Sun and the others also came over.
"Qing'er, Xiaohua, my mother is lazy tonight and makes you tired." Mrs. Sun entered the kitchen with a smile and said.
Usually during family dinners like this, Ms. Sun would come to the backyard to clean up the dishes. Tonight, she was chatting in the main room in the front yard, drinking tea and eating snacks.
Of course, on the one hand, it was the children's wishes, and on the other hand, she also wanted to take this opportunity to have a good conversation with the eldest Sun and the old Sun.
Since my mother left, my father has become thinner and more silent.
The old man who used to have a loud voice, a hearty laugh, and a fondness for staring has disappeared. He has become more and more silent and lonely.
The eldest Sun and the Sun sisters were really anxious in their hearts, so they took advantage of this good opportunity tonight to spend some time with the old Sun, letting him feel that although the old lady was gone, he was still here. There are still so many relatives in the world who care about him.
