Chapter 63
"Aniang! Someone is sleeping there!"
Shen Zhiyu was small, and at first glance he could see someone lying on the ground sleeping.
"Auntie, I think..." Nanzhi looked a little strange. Who would be free enough to sleep in the mountains this morning?
"Is it possible that the person fainted?"
Shen Zhiyu blinked and said nothing more. Whatever A Niang said was what she said.
Nanzhi trotted over, hesitated for a while, then knelt down, picked up a stick and poked the man.
After poking for a while and finding no response, Nanzhi reached out and turned the man's face.
"Aunt Wu!"
Shen Zhiyu took a closer look and shouted immediately when he recognized the person. Nanzhi was also startled by her face.
We haven’t seen each other for a few days. How can the Wu family still retain its former glory?
Now her face has lost its human shape, her skin is sallow, her cheekbones are protruding, and her eyes are narrowed into a thin line. If she hadn't been her neighbor for five years, Nanzhi probably wouldn't have been able to recognize who she was. .
"Wu family? Wu family?"
After shouting twice more, there was still no response. Nanzhi's heart skipped a beat. He couldn't be dead, right?
Just as he was about to reach out to feel her breath, he heard Wu coughing.
"Water...water..."
Nanzhi was stunned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief, then took off the bamboo tube from his waist, opened the cork and fed Wu's water.
After drinking water, Wu calmed down for a while before her eyes regained clarity. She saw clearly that the person supporting her was Nanzhi, and her expression suddenly changed.
My lips trembled for a long time before I squeezed out two words: "Thank you... thank you..."
"It's okay." Nanzhi didn't care, just shook his head, hesitated for a while and then asked: "What's wrong with you?"
Wu was silent and didn't speak, and Nanzhi didn't ask any more questions.
If people don't want to say it, they must have concerns. She and the Wu family are not old acquaintances, so there is no need to seek disapproval.
"I've given this bamboo tube to you, please pay more attention to it." Nanzhi thrust the bamboo tube into her hand, stood up and prepared to take Shen Zhiyu home.
"Lin, sister Lin." When Wu saw Nanzhi was about to leave, she immediately grabbed her pants.
When someone grabbed his pants, Nanzhi almost stumbled over. After he steadied himself, he exhaled and asked, "What are you doing?"
Wu coughed violently and said with the corner of her mouth tugged: "Sister Lin, do you have anything to eat? I'm really, really hungry..."
Nanzhi frowned, still couldn't bear to see Wu's pitiful appearance lying on the ground, and took out the remaining half of the white flour bun from last night.
"You can take it and eat it. I don't have anything else." After saying that, Nanzhi only held Shen Zhiyu's little hand and left.
Seeing the two figures, one big and one small, gradually getting further away, Wu grabbed the half of the bun and stuffed it into his mouth.
She had to eat, she had to get her life back, she had to leave here with the stone.
"Auntie, is Aunt Wu okay?" Holding Nanzhi's hand, Shen Zhiyu turned to look at the chestnut forest behind her.
He remembered that Aunt Wu used to be very fierce, but now she looks so skinny.
"I don't know." Nanzhi looked at the road and calculated in his mind.
We haven't seen each other for a few days, how could Wu be so thin now?
When we met her before, I thought she was a little haggard. She looked like she was running away from home today, and her body was even worse than when she came here.
Could it be that Li Tian did something to her?
Thinking about the difference between Wu's arrogant appearance in the past and what she saw today, Nanzhi felt a little uncomfortable.
What exactly has happened to make a person become like this in just a few days?
After returning to the village, Nanzhi did not go home. He first went to the Li house next door and knocked on the door.
Mrs. Liu was peeling chestnuts in the yard when she heard someone knocking on the door and hurriedly answered the door.
"Who is it?"
When she opened the door, she saw Nanzhi and Shen Zhiyu standing at the door. Ms. Liu was stunned. Just as she was about to move away to let them in, she heard Nanzhi speak.
"I won't go in." Nanzhi waved her hand and continued: "I just met Wu in the chestnut forest. She seemed to be in a bad situation."
"Hey, please, I'll tell my brother to go later."
Mrs. Liu said with a smile and closed the courtyard door.
Shen Zhiyu looked at the closed courtyard door, tilted his head and asked in a low voice: "Auntie, will Aunt Liu go to Aunt Wu?"
After taking a look at the courtyard door of Li's house, Nanzhi led him towards his home.
"It's hard for an honest official to deal with household chores, so that's all we can do to help."
She gave her the water, stuffed the steamed buns, and told Wu's sister-in-law the news when she came back. The rest was up to her own luck.
The little guy didn't understand what his mother-in-law said, so he just nodded and ran to the backyard.
Looking at Shen Zhiyu's happy back, Nanzhi's hand holding the backpack tightened.
She also had some selfish intentions. She couldn't forgive Wu for what he had done, and she couldn't forget the jade that was beaten with nosebleeds on her face.
Mrs. Liu returned to the courtyard with a very complicated mood.
Because she only gave birth to two daughters, she was always scolded by her mother-in-law, and Wu, her sister-in-law, also humiliated herself.
Although her father-in-law and eldest brother had a lot of opinions about her because she almost drowned in a stone, she has also noticed it these days.
The eldest brother was afraid that Mrs. Wu was more than simply wanting to divorce his wife. He had been letting her sleep in the yard since she was married, and she had to rely on rocks to eat and drink.
Today, as soon as she could stand up, she was called to pick up chestnuts. It was obvious that her elder brother wanted her life!
Sitting in the yard, Madam Liu felt a chill in her back.
After calming down for a while, he still didn't make up his mind. He told his two daughters to cook at home and went out alone.
Old Man Li lay on the bed and looked at his grandson, smiled and touched his head.
"Stone, what are you thinking about?"
Shitou sat on the stool, bowed his head and clasped his hands, not saying a word.
"Don't you like to follow me?"
Shitou's hand paused and he hesitated, but he still took Old Man Li's hand and said, "Grandpa, I want grandma to go back to the house to sleep, okay?"
The smile on Old Man Li's face froze and he said no more.
Seeing his grandpa like this, Shitou was a little scared and didn't dare to say anything.
Grandpa and grandma used to like me the most, but since grandpa had his leg amputated, no matter how much trouble he made, grandpa no longer obeyed her.
The sun was getting bigger and bigger, and Nanzhi was pondering in his mind while drying chestnut flour.
What happened to the Li family?
"Grandma!" Shen Zhiyu looked at his grandma staring at the sky in a daze, and stretched out his hand to tug at the corner of her clothes.
"Ah? What's wrong?" As soon as Nanzhi turned around, he saw the little guy approaching him with an outstretched hand.
If you look closely, you can see that the little guy is holding a bug in his hand.
"Auntie, I just caught it in the backyard!" Child Shen Zhiyu waved her little hand.
He had never seen this kind of bug before. Just when he was watching big river mussels in the backyard, this bug fell from the sky!
Nanzhi frowned and looked at the insect in his hand in confusion. Why did this insect look familiar?
