Although I haven’t been in Yujia Village for a long time and I don’t go out often, I occasionally heard from Yang yesterday that the children in the village usually like to play under the big tree at the west end of the village. She went directly there. She is now a child. , To be a child, you must act like a child.
From a distance, I saw children, both boys and girls, gathered in a circle under the tree in front of me. Some of them were close to Su Yu. As I got closer, I could clearly hear what they were saying.
"Then the daughter of the Su family is really sick, is it true or not?"
"Of course it's true. You haven't seen that she has been in our village for so long and never left the house once. She is either sick or something. My mother told me to let me pass by the door of Su's house in the future to avoid being sick. gas."
The two younger girls nodded, "Yes, my mother said so too."
Yes, Su Yu now knows what Yang Ermei said yesterday. He dared her not to go out, but it was reported in the village that she was sick. It is estimated that everyone in the village is talking about her now. If there is a disease, otherwise the adults would not tell their children.
"Who are you and why have we never seen you?"
The youngest girl was about six or seven years old, with a single phoenix eye, two small bumps on her head, and her cheeks were red and cracked. When she saw Su Yu, she asked curiously.
"I'm new here, can I play with you?"
Su Yu's big eyes flickered and were very deceptive.
There is more than one Su family renting in Yujia Village now. Su Yu doesn't look sick, and the children don't think about Su Yu.
"Then what's your name?"
"What's your name again?" Su Yu asked.
"My name is Yu Hua, and this is my sister Yu Cui."
Yu Hua pulled her sister Yu Cui's clothes and spoke in a crisp voice, which made it clear that she was usually a chatterbox. The two sisters look very similar, but anyone with a discerning eye can tell that they have opposite personalities. The older sister is a bit shy and doesn't talk much.
When Su Yu heard the names of the two sisters, the corner of Su Yu's mouth twitched.
"Then what are their names?"
Su Yu caught the smallest lamb.
"This is Sister Huang Yi, and the other one is Sister Liu Juan."
Xiao Yuhua pointed to the older two and introduced them to Su Yu.
"Oh, what are you playing?"
Yu Hua was about to tell Su Yu when she was pulled back by Huang Yi, the oldest, and she immediately stopped talking.
"You haven't told us yet, what's your name?"
Huang Yi is the eldest among them, with an oval face and dark complexion. She looks to be about the same age as Su Yu. The little girl is very thin and wears a gray cotton dress. It looks like she has made it out of an adult's old clothes. It looked very old-fashioned, and it was obvious that the family was having a hard time. But it was obvious that he was the most thoughtful among the four and was not fooled by Su Yu.
Su Yu didn't hesitate.
"My name is Su Yu, and I am the daughter who has recently moved to the Su family."
Hearing that she was the daughter of the Su family, the four little girls all took a step back, as if Su Yu was some kind of savage beast, with the eldest Huang Yi and Liu Juan pulling one behind.
"We still have something to do."
After saying that, the man had already run away. Huang Yi did not forget his little brother when he ran, and pulled him along. Huang Huangbao was not willing to leave.
"Go home quickly, the daughter of the Su family is here."
After realizing who the daughter of the Su family was, the group of boys all dispersed with a bang. For a moment, everyone was gone under the big tree. Su Yu helplessly spread his hands, okay, although he doesn't like playing with the little brats in the village. , but Su Yu didn’t want to be isolated at all.
The Su family plans to live in the village for a long time in the future, so there must be no rumors that she is sick. God knows, will the village use the excuse of her illness to kick their family out? Now that she had finally settled down, she didn't want to leave like this. The situation in Yujiacun was better than she had expected, and the atmosphere in the village was very positive.
The Su family's desire to settle down in Yujia Village has never been revealed in the village. It is said to be a temporary residence to the outside world, and it has always been indifferent to Village Chief Yu and his family.
According to her idea, after their family earns money, they can buy foundations and fields in the village, which will be a lot of income for the village. At that time, it will not be the Su family who want to settle down in Yujia Village. , but the people of Yujia Village, begging their Su family to settle down in Yujia Village. She never fought an uncertain battle, and now that there was news that she was ill, it was not good. She had to think of something.
In ancient times, women who were good at eating and lazy could get married, but no one dared to marry if they were in poor health. Even those who did seek marriage were some crooked ones, or they were interested in the woman's family's money. She can not want a man, but she cannot be disliked by a man.
Thinking of Su Yu, I went to the river, cut a small basket of water plants and carried it home.
"Why did Yu'er come back so early? All the girls in the house can do it now."
"This is not because I am worried that the chickens and ducks at home will have nothing to eat. I will send the water plants back first, and then I will go and play with the children in the village."
Lian's smile was gentle, and Su Yu was also happy. She found that since the family settled in Yujiacun, although everyone was too busy to touch the ground, there were more smiles on everyone's face than when they were in Wangjiacun. A lot. Especially my mother, who always had a hint of sadness on her face before, but now, there are more and more smiles on her face, and her own personality is also highlighted. As before, apart from working, I just lived by looking at the faces of my grandparents in the old house. Even after the family was separated, I never had a peaceful life. Now the sadness on my face is gone, and I have hope for life.
After putting the basket on his back, Su Yu went to the stove to take a drink of water, and then went to the place where the firewood was placed to find a stick. There were no two firewood knives at home, so he had to use the hanging sickle. She whittled the wooden stick in her hand step by step. Even though she was not very young or strong enough, it was not difficult to sharpen a thin stick with a sickle. It just took a little longer. She had a lot of patience.
"Mom, I went out to play. I'll be back at noon."
Looking at the stick in Su Yu's hand, Lian didn't understand what she was doing, but she didn't stop her.
"Repulse Bay is no better than Wangjiacun, the water is very deep."
"Don't worry, Mom, I'll only go to shallow water."
After finally seeing the shadow of her past in her daughter, Mrs. Lian was reluctant to say harsh words.
"Go ahead, remember not to go into deep water."
Even after Su Yu had left the house, Mrs. Lian was still worried and warned her again.
Su Yu carried the stick and ran away in a hurry. Although my mother was kind, sometimes it was very annoying to think about her in detail.
I walked along the river in front of my house in the direction of the village, and stopped at the shallow water area closest to the village. Not far upstream, I could see several women from the village washing clothes by the river, and several people also saw it. Su Yu, it's just that Su Yu is some distance away from them, and it's downstream, so a few people won't be unreasonable and chase people away.
Su Yu didn't intend to rub his hot face against someone else's cold ass. He rolled up his trouser legs, took off his shoes and socks and went into the river. The river water was cool in summer, and there was a layer of pebbles on the bottom of the river. It was comfortable to step on. Su Yu wanted to sing. The last two sentences.
When she walked to the middle of the river, the water only reached her knees. Su Yu held up the stick with both hands and made a stinging motion. She just stood motionless in the river, staring closely at the fish that swam by from time to time under the river.
In the past, the original owner liked to follow Wang Da and the others. Wang Da was not without some ability to be a child. One of his abilities was to stab fish in the water with branches. At that time, the original owner was envious, but the original owner did not have that ability. , followed Wang Da's example and stabbed a fish in the river. Among the countless times, he was lucky enough to stab one, but the original owner was very happy. Since then, he has never stabbed another fish. She carries the memory of the original owner with her, so she naturally remembers it clearly.
