At this time, Shaoqiu could only stay in the house and did not dare to come out to see anyone. Otherwise, with so many people in the house, something big might happen. It would be better to sit in his own house. Better.
At night, people gradually dispersed, but Uncle Hua was the only one who was unwilling to accept that such a beautiful daughter of his was ruined, and it was extremely shameful to spread the word and let people know about it.
However, facing this person, it is not easy to do anything to him for a while. Is it possible to kill him? Thinking of those knives, guns, etc., Hua Bo felt at a loss and was trembling all over. Let alone actually doing it, that would be simply catastrophic!
There was no other way. When things got to this point, Uncle Hua had no choice but to accept his fate. When he saw everyone leaving, he temporarily lost the anger in his heart. He jumped to Shaoqiu's door in three or two steps and knocked lightly, wanting to go in and talk to Shaoqiu. He said that he was talking and chatting, and even wanted to give him some money and gifts. Otherwise, how could he survive the cold winter?
Shaoqiu was so frightened by the crowd during the day that at night he had no choice but to lie down on the table, light a lamp, and read a few pages of a book. By this time, everyone left and cursed, and some even threatened to beheaded alive. He is coming.
It seemed that Shaoqiu had made a fool of himself on the street, and had made them ugly as well. If he didn't vent his anger on this person and scolded his mother, it would be impossible to live this life.
If it weren't for the fact that it was getting dark and people had been scolding all day, they should disperse, have a meal, or go on a date with the woman they like. Some people even have the idea of a girl, thinking that if they follow Shaoqiu, it would be better to associate with themselves. , at least his family is not as poor as Shaoqiu.
However, as soon as the man said these words, someone immediately stopped him, saying that such a thing is not allowed, God is watching what you do, and if you offend God, it will not be a good thing, and you will definitely have to pay it back. ,
People gradually left. In front of Shaoqiu's house, the bustling scene during the day was now in a state of depression. You could really hear the sound of falling leaves, making a clanging sound, and it was no longer as chaotic as before.
At this time, Uncle Hua came forward and knocked gently on the door. The door opened with a creak, and it was not Shaoqiu who came out. Standing in front of Uncle Hua, he was trembling and frightened. It was simply... Like the leaves in autumn, I am anxious all day long.
"What's the purpose of uncle coming here?" Shaoqiu asked.
"It's nothing, I'm just giving you some gifts," Uncle Hua said while placing a carton of milk on the table, "I heard you did that thing on the street, haha, you did a great job. , you should be a little tired at this time, I heard people say that milk is a good thing, it can nourish the body, you are not in good health, you must take care of yourself."
"Uncle," Shaoqiu shouted, "Why are you so polite? Besides, I have been staying in the house these days and not going to the street. Are you mistaken?"
"Hey, don't deny it," said Uncle Hua, "Everyone has said that you and my little flower are already married on the street. Why didn't you inform me of such a big thing in advance? Otherwise, , so that I can make some good dishes and meals for you to replenish your body, but when I suddenly heard about this, I was really in a hurry, so I could only get you this carton of milk."
"Thank you so much, uncle." After Shaoqiu said this, tears rolled down his face for a moment, which could almost be said to be hot tears. "
After sitting together and talking to each other, we saw that it was getting dark and it would definitely not be appropriate to stay any longer. We might have to go to work in the mountains tomorrow, so we had to have a good rest at this time.
While thinking this, Hua Bo left Shaoqiu's house in an instant and returned to his own home. Hearing the girl still sobbing and crying, he felt a little noisy. At this time, he wished Shaoqiu would take the girl into his home to spend the night.
"Stop crying," Hua Bo looked at the girl and shouted, "Don't stay in my house, go to Shaoqiu's house. Sooner or later, you will be his, and it's a bit uncomfortable for me to take care of you." It’s so ridiculous.”
Hearing what her father said, the girl ran away for a moment. Of course she didn't go to Shaoqiu's house, but she went to the river alone, sat on a stone, looked at the moon in the sky, sighed and sobbed.
In her heart, she really hated that so-called scholar to death. If she had known that he was such a virtuous person, she would not have interacted with him. Coupled with her father's censure, she suddenly had the idea of committing suicide.
Yes, Uncle Hua went into Shaoqiu's house and brought him a box of milk. He secretly betrothed himself to him. This was something the girl didn't want, even though she had always liked him. , but when something like this happened, I really saw through him. Let alone getting married to him at this time, even just taking a look or talking to him was already impossible.
The girl sat quietly by the small river, facing the eastward flowing water, knowing that it would soon be frozen because the north wind was blowing, the weather was cold, the rain and snow were falling, and the sky was so vast that it was hard to tell. all directions.
Suffering from this great shame and humiliation, the girl no longer wanted to live. Otherwise, she would see the scholar every day, meet him, and maybe even come into contact with him. This was something the girl did not want to see anyway.
It's time to leave this place, leave the deserted village, go to a beautiful place, cuddle up with your lover, go through the difficulties of life together, or share the beauty of the years.
But where can the girl go at this time? She can't walk alone. In addition, her feet have been wrapped with cloth strips since she was a child and have not grown much. It seems that she can hardly support her body. With such strength of her feet, Escape from the deserted village has always been impossible.
There is no way to escape, so why not live? The girl thought in her heart. With this idea in mind, the girl walked step by step towards the river, preparing to throw herself into the river and die here.
But the weather at this time was really very cold. The snowflakes were flying, the ground was frozen, and the clouds were bursting. It seemed to become very thick in an instant. By this time, the river was already frozen. Don't talk about jumping at this time. If you go in and commit suicide, even if you throw a stone into the river, it won't sink.
The girl walked to the center of the river, looking for a place to jump down, and it would be over, and she would live a carefree and comfortable life.
But when I looked at the sky, it was really dark. The entire sky was black. Those black clouds had almost become a substantial existence and could be touched with my hands. They were as hard and cold as stones by the river.
It snowed heavily. This heavy snowfall was really unusual. The snowflakes were almost as big as a house, falling one after another. The temperature was ridiculously low, almost minus 40 degrees Celsius, which was much lower than that at this time. Mohe seems to be colder.
Somewhere far away, someone kept scolding me. I felt that the sky was too cold, and at this time, the sky had also reached the point of being "invulnerable".
The girl wanted to find a place to jump off the frozen river, but after searching for a long time, she couldn't find such a place at all, so she had no choice but to stop looking and sit down on the cold river, constantly slapping her hands. I tried to make a hole in the ice, but couldn't. Even if I broke my palm and made it bleed, there was still no flaw. The entire river had turned into a huge piece of ice, and it was impossible to jump down.
The girl spat and looked at the sky again. It was getting extremely cold today. If she had known it would be like this, she would not have jumped into the river.
Just when I didn't know what to do, I heard someone shouting by the river. Isn't it the two idiots? Looking at it at this time, under the faint moonlight, the two idiots were no longer the same as before, and they were not at all the same as Shaoqiu. Not like it anymore.
These two fools were the ones who did bad things to the girl on the street. They were bored at this time. After drinking some drinks, they seemed to hear someone saying that the girl was by the river, so they came over and wanted to have a date with them.
The girl hesitated and seemed to feel that something should not be done. As for the reason for this, she didn't know. It was probably some women's intuition, because women's intuition is very powerful, comparable to the brains of smart people.
But at this time, I felt very complicated and wanted to die. Suddenly, I thought of what happened on Lu Zhen Street, and I was even more upset. I already didn't want to live anymore.
But fortunately, the appearance of these two fools could somewhat soothe my sorrow. At this time, I saw that these two fools had that kind of thoughts. Without saying anything, I nodded silently, agreed, and followed him.
But after walking for a while, the girl felt that she shouldn't go forward. It seemed that she had to leave the person in front of her. But he was so kind to her. If you think about it carefully, what's wrong with it? It's fashionable to be depressed and you can spit out the lumps in your chest. At least it was better than someone like Shaoqiu. Thinking of this, the girl felt relieved for a moment and followed the second fool towards a similarly dilapidated house.
At the same time, Shaoqiu was staying in his house. He heard the heavy snow falling outside the door. It seemed like it happened once in a hundred years. It was very strange. On such a snowy night, people in the deserted village all fell asleep. Deep in sleep, only Shaoqiu did not fall asleep because he heard Uncle Hua standing in front of his house, mumbling something.
Uncle Hua called Shaoqiu into his home and said that he had something important to talk to him. Shaoqiu did not dare to neglect, so he had to listen carefully and wanted to know what happened.
"We," Uncle Hua was silent for a while, finally spoke, "we are already a family, and one family does not speak the same language as the other."
"Uncle, just tell me what you have to say, there's no need to go round and round like this." Shaoqiu said with some embarrassment.
,
"It's like this. Someone just said that they saw Xiaohua in Luzhen, and they wanted to ask you to do a favor and find her," Uncle Hua said, "It's really too cold and it's snowing so hard." Da, I'm afraid it won't be good if this continues, something might happen to Xiao Hua."
"Who saw Xiaohua in Luzhen?" Shaoqiu asked.
"It was said by a person who came back from Luzhen, saying that Xiaohua was standing alone on the street crying constantly." After Hua Bo said this, his voice was a little choked, "I originally wanted to look for her, but really You shouldn't scold her. But I'm afraid, this heavy snow is unparalleled in the world..."
After Hua Bo said this, he quickly opened the door and looked outside. In the vast expanse, it was almost impossible to tell the difference between east, west, north and south. In the meter-deep snow, not to mention people, even a cow walked into it. It is also possible that there will be no return.
"Please." Uncle Hua stood at the door and said to Shaoqiu, "Go and find Xiaohua."
