Lijia is actually very good at making fire. She has never learned how to make fire. When she was a child, she often remembered that her mother made fire like this. Originally, the Liu family knew that Lishu had a photographic memory, but they didn't know that she actually had a very good memory.
The sauerkraut jars haven't been put away yet, and some sauerkraut jars were bought from nearby military households when they arrived. Lijia made them casually, but before they were finished, Liusu came in to help.
Lijia felt happy, thinking that she had worked.
When Liusu was kicked out, her mother gave her two hundred taels, and it was her mother who protected her. Up to now, she was only halfway helping. Her husband had to build the city wall when he first came here. She also had endless things to do. She also had a daughter who was as beautiful as a flower and a son who was studying. She was so desperate that she couldn't see the way forward.
So, she must give it a try.
However, after Liusu finished her meal, she put down her chopsticks and prepared to leave without any hesitation or asking anything, as if all her hard work was in vain.
Lijia didn't understand: "Are you leaving right now?"
Liusu smiled and said: "Yes, I am eager to return home. Now that you have settled down, ladies, of course I can't stay here any longer."
In the end, Lijia finally said what was in her heart: "Are you really not willing to help us?"
Liusu laughed angrily after hearing this. It was only along the way that she realized that this big girl was very thoughtful, and she was not one of those good-natured people: "Since ancient times, I know what it means. You Liu family don't care about you. I traveled thousands of miles to take care of you for your mother's sake, and now I've turned into a feud. In this case, why should I talk anymore, big girl, don't treat everyone as a fool."
Lijia was stunned.
She knew that Liusu was very kind and loyal, but she didn't expect her to say it so straightforwardly, but now was not the time to save face.
Therefore, Lijia still said: "If I hadn't reached this point, how could I be so ignorant and unable to repay favors. I will be like this in my life, but my son, daughter, and they want to follow me Do you suffer this?"
"Girl, your son and daughter have enjoyed blessings when they were officials in your Song family. This is the law of the court, so you don't have to cry to me. If I were you, I would look around and take care of myself. , live a good life, that’s all. I don’t think you should mention your mother. If you really have your mother in your heart, your mother will not die so early." Liusu didn’t want to say this, but he still spoke sincerely. .
Lijia collapsed on the ground. In fact, she was very sad when her mother was really gone, but there was a sense of joy in her sadness that she was finally gone. Because her mother is her biggest hidden danger. Once this hidden danger is gone, there is nothing in the world that she can control. No one will say that her mother has ever committed herself to a bandit.
Outsiders even thought that she was the eldest daughter of the current Xiao Fu family and the eldest daughter of Liu Chengxu. Her grandfather was still the second assistant to the Fu family.
Liusu left very quickly. After Liusu left, Lijia realized that life here was really difficult. Her husband often had to work on the border and do farm work. Military households cannot do business, they have to learn how to cook in the ice and snow, and their son's education is far away.
She had frostbite after frostbite on her hands. If it hadn't been for the old lady and grandma, like the women here, she wouldn't have really felt anything.
Whenever I think of her suffering here, her sisters all
They are all enjoying themselves, but Li Jia feels uncomfortable.
"Mom, my daughter's embroidery work is done."
Lijia heard her daughter's cry and saw that she was already in her teens this year. She should have been able to marry into a very good family in Beijing, but she ended up in a place like this. Beautiful women in such a place can only be concubines. If someone takes a fancy to them, they will be sent directly to Ducheng. But being a concubine is better than being the wife of a military household. Those poor military men have no money and power, and their wives are in vain. Rather than doing this, it is better to stay with someone better.
But it was hard for her to talk about these words to her daughter L.
Daughter L did have her own opinions. Her temperament was very similar to that of her third aunt Lishu. Two years later, she actually married Qianhu as a side wife. However, Qianhu's wife was jealous and when daughter L was in great pain, she directly married her. He rose up to resist and actually killed Qianhu's wife.
Lijia herself was frightened. They were originally criminal guards, but now their daughter L killed someone again, and the whole family was imprisoned, just waiting to be punished.
"How could you do this? You have to think about your father and your brother at least?" Lijia advised.
Her daughter L sneered: "Have you ever thought about me? I am a beautiful girl who is bullied every day. That old man is a torture thing, and his wife is a shrew. What kind of life do I live? Have you ever thought about it? Mom, I am not your Liu family. No matter what you do, everyone always cares about our friendship and will not go too far. But when I don’t have a good life, you still want to make your brother shine. Menlin, let me suffer, I can't do it. You are also old, why don't you go to the younger one and support us?"
Lijia said angrily: "You are so presumptuous."
She felt that her daughter L was really too ignorant, but her daughter L snorted coldly and stopped talking. She had no choice but to tell her husband how ignorant her daughter was, and then complained to her son.
Daughter L poked her heart: "Back then, my grandmother was willing to go to Qingxiu for you and gave you all the dowry. But ask yourself, are you as good as her as a mother? Also, when we come here, I didn't have to be a concubine. No matter what, my grandfather's reputation and my uncle's reputation are enough. You are the one who offended everyone. You talk about the three obediences and four virtues. Oh my god, you are just outwardly benevolent and moral, but you are full of male thieves and female prostitutes. Are you really He is a benevolent and righteous person, and he would not have arranged for the fourth aunt and the fifth uncle to meet..."
Lijia was about to go crazy. What her daughter L said simply peeled off her last layer of skin and shattered all her hopes.
Daughter L actually carried poison with her. Knowing that she was going to die, she swallowed the poison directly.
Lijia was so frightened that she couldn't sleep in the middle of the night. When she woke up, her family of three were thrown into the most sinister quarry instead of the normal military residence where they had been ordered before.
She has been unable to carry it with her shoulders or lift it with her hands all year round, but now she is carrying stones in the quarry and chiseling them in the dark all day long.
Sweat had flowed from her forehead to her eyes, and the pain in her eyes was unbearable. When she slowed down a little, she was whipped, and Lijia shivered in pain.
She suddenly thought of the hunter who was thrown into the water by the Fu family, but he still had no grudge and no revenge.
Such a good person, but she thought that person was poor and a shame. It was a shame to her mother and to them. Her brother died because of guilt. She also felt that her brother was simply too cowardly, but no one in this world could be superior, including her mother and her. Even the Fu family had their retribution.
Now, she has learned that if you do evil, you will be punished.
But it's too late now, the whip has ripped her skin apart, but tomorrow and the day after, she doesn't know if she can bear it...!
