Seeing that the third grandma seemed to be really angry, the women kept silent.
He just silently helped the third grandma change clothes and make the bed.
The third grandma has been scolding Jin Qing for being inappropriate.
Knowing that the third grandma must have fallen into a daze, the women silently made the third grandma roar in anger, and responded from time to time.
It was late at night, and the third grandma had gone to bed. The women left one after another, leaving only Chen Xiangling waiting in the third grandma's room.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, the third grandma suddenly opened her eyes and asked Xiang Ling softly: "Have the lights been turned off?"
Xiangling quickly stood up and looked outside, and then responded to the third grandma: "The lights are out, there is no one in the courtyard, they must have gone to sleep."
The third grandma let out a long breath: "Have the village chief and clan brother let it go?"
Xiang Ling nodded: "I heard that they were put down, but Wu Xingniang took away their livestock."
There was a hint of surprise in the third grandmother's voice: "That doesn't offend anyone completely."
Xiang Ling didn't answer this sentence, but the expression on her face clearly showed that she thought so too.
The third grandma shook her head gently: "Tomorrow I will go to the clan elders to discuss how to punish Wu Xingniang. This person not only ruined the reputation of the village, but also did such evil things. We will definitely not let her go easily."
Xiangling looked at the third grandma in surprise: "But..."
The clan elders can't defeat Xing Niang at all!
The third grandma waved to Xiang Ling: "I know what you mean, so tomorrow you take Mei Xi and the others to approach Wu Xingniang secretly and listen to her instructions."
Xiang Ling opened her mouth slightly: "Third Grandma!"
The third grandma gently patted Xiang Ling's hand: "Listen to me. Over the years, my body has been getting worse day by day. In the past, I always wondered what you poor people would do when I die."
Xiang Ling's eyes were filled with tears: "No, you will live a long life."
The third grandma showed a forced smile, with deep grooves appearing in the corners of her eyes: "We poor people will suffer if we live for one more day, so we should not live a long life."
For those who are pampered, living a long life is a blessing.
But for someone like her, it's like a curse.
Her situation was similar to Xiang Ling's. Her husband's family asked her to celebrate the wedding, but she became a widow within three days of their marriage.
After that, she built a mud house at the end of the village and barely survived.
If it hadn't been for the Chastity Arch, she might still be living in a mud house.
Forty years of hard work gave her a chastity memorial arch. Everyone only saw her prestige in the clan, but they didn't know that she was soaked in coptis every day.
After suffering like this, she will be more considerate of women.
So, she wrapped herself tightly with indifference and severity, and finally found a place in the clan.
She had no skills and didn't even know a few big words, but she gave these women a shelter in her own way.
That archway carried all her pain, but in the end it became her strength.
The more she behaves like she's following the rules, the more she can gain.
And these things can prevent these women from freezing and starving.
She is already sixty years old this year. Her foundation was damaged in the early years, and she doesn’t know how long she can live.
But it is these women's blessing that she lives one more day.
Wu Xingniang's approach seemed cruel, but it also gave her another way of thinking.
Or, they can have other escape routes.
The third grandma held Chen Xiangling's hand tightly: "Listen to me, I will approach Wu Xingniang tomorrow and stay with her no matter what she does."
Chen Xiangling nodded vigorously: "What about you!"
The third grandma's voice was even lower: "I have to leave a way out for you and continue to help the clan elders to denounce her. If Wu Xingniang loses to those clan brothers, I will come forward to bring you back to punish you. When the time comes, our sect will Once you get through it, you can continue to live your life, and it won’t be any worse than now.”
This was the best she could think of.
And she always felt that Wu Xingniang's abilities should be more than that.
Chen Xiangling didn't say anything, but suddenly hugged the third grandma's waist, buried her head in the quilt and sobbed.
How unfortunate she was to be born a woman.
But how lucky she was to meet the third grandma who planned for them wholeheartedly.
The third grandma gently patted Chen Xiangling on the head: "This life is too hard. I will never be a human being in the next life."
Chen Xiangling's voice was a little dull: "What do you do if you don't behave like a human being?"
The third grandma kept moving her hands: "Be a pig, eat and drink and then get stabbed. It will make you happy and make others happy."
These widows really don't live as well as the pigs raised in the village.
Xiangling burst out laughing: "Then I will also become a pig with the third grandma. With the third grandma protecting me, I won't be afraid of being bullied by other pigs."
The furrow in the corner of the third grandma's eyes became deeper: "You don't want me to stop in the next life."
Just when Xiangling was lying in the arms of the third grandma, Jin Qing's voice suddenly came to her ears: "Can you cook?"
Chen Xiangling's movements suddenly froze, and the warm atmosphere just now disappeared instantly.
She opened her mouth wide and subconsciously looked at Jin Qing who was squatting on the window sill: "Why are you here?"
Jin Qing reached out and scratched the back of his head, and replied matter-of-factly: "I've always been here."
Chen Xiangling: "...What are you doing here."
Jin Qing tilted her head and looked at Chen Xiangling, feeling like she had met a fool: "I'm looking for something to eat!"
Was it because she didn't make it clear just now, or because this bitch couldn't understand human language.
Chen Xiangling was stunned by Jin Qing's natural response: "Why are you here looking for food?"
As we all know, they are the poorest people in the village.
Jin Qing's expression suddenly became serious: "Didn't you say that you want to work as a cow or a horse for me?"
She suspected that she had been deceived.
Chen Xiangling took a breath: "But it's night now."
And aren’t those polite words used when asking for help? Who would take polite words seriously?
This time it was Jin Qing's turn to be surprised: "Have you seen any cow or horse sleeping like this?"
Isn't that open year-round?
Chen Xiangling: "..." The polite words were promised.
Chen Xiangling stared blankly at Jin Qing with her eyes wide open, unable to say a word.
The third grandma sighed softly: "When did you come here."
Jin Qing threw two popcorns into his mouth: "That's when you said you wanted to punish me."
Third Grandma: "..." Then you are still so calm.
Normally, Wu Xingniang should have dragged her out in a rage and hung her up again.
Seeing the nervous look of the third grandma, Jin Qing jumped from the window sill onto the fire bed of the third grandma: "I think your quilt is quite good."
It's not that she likes to wander around. The key is that Li Yuehua only knows how to cry and has no intention of cooking at all.
Especially after Wu Laoer was picked off the tree by Jin Qing, Li Yuehua cried as if his whole family had died.
After meeting Li Yuehua, Jin Qing really understood what it means to be a woman with water.
She was even a little worried whether Li Yuehua would cry his eyes out.
In order to prevent himself from starving to death, Jin Qing suddenly thought of the women who had promised to serve him during the day.
So I followed the smell and ran here.
