Hard times have room

Chapter 18

Early in the morning, just after drinking porridge, Dongmei came to Baolin, went to the back mountain to pick up mushrooms and dig wild vegetables.

The weather was nice and sunny today. A group of little sparrows chirped in the haystacks beside the road.

This time is a good time to go out.

On the road, two little people, carrying a backpack, their clothes are covered with patches, black, brown and blue patches one after another, especially the knees, elbows and buttocks, which are particularly prone to wear and tear. The patches are piled up with patches. Even more shabby.

This is the clothes that the two of them wore for work. The adults’ clothes were changed, so it doesn’t hurt if they get dirty or torn. Go back to make up, wash and wash them, and wear them next time you work.

The skin that leaked from the hands and faces of the two of them was yellow and clear. In the countryside, they worked outside all year round, and they were all black, yellow, black and yellow. As far as their skin conditions are now, they are not bad.

The body is thin and Lingling, and the clothes that the adult has changed appear to be empty of sleeves and trousers. When the wind blows and the clothes move, it seems that they are about to be blown down.

This image will be like a living refugee in later generations, but it is the most common and common in this era.

"Paulin, did you know! Last night, the big girl Li Cao was beaten by her mother again, and the beating was quite heavy. I heard that she was covered in blood, and it seems that she didn't get up today." Wang Dongmei frowned, with a serious expression, as she walked. Talk to Pauline.

"Ah, I don't know. No one went out at my house last night. You came this morning. Why did you beat Li Cao again? Didn't the Li family want to point at Li Cao to earn work points recently? Is it really that hard? I can't get up." Bao Lin heard the Li family frown, but she still wanted to ask more clearly.

Li Cao was the daughter that Xu Xiuying brought to the Li family by her aunt, Li Tao's sister-in-law.

When I heard the aunt in the village drinking tea and chatting, she said that at the beginning, because she gave birth to a daughter, Xu Xiuying was very unwelcome to her husband's family. In addition, she was not happy for a few years, and she only had one daughter until her husband died. Her husband's family hated the poison. She, after feeling that she had let her son die, thought she was a broom star. Once the funeral was over, she was driven out of her husband's family with no money and even her daughter.

When Xu Xiuying returned to her mother's house, she did not invite her sister-in-law to meet her. It happened that the Li family fled to Shanghe Village and needed a foothold. Xu Xiuying took the opportunity to marry Li Qiang.

Xu Xiuying's family refused to help people raise the child, so she took it to Li's house. Later, the child's name was also mixed with a name, and it was called Li Cao.

Although Li Cao said that he had a mother, but that mother was not as good as her stepmother, she was soaked in bitter water.

Xu Xiuying was not seen by her husband's family because she gave birth to a daughter. It is not a good thing for Xu Xiuying to be selfish and prefer sons to daughters. She poured out her own disappointments on the little girl.

Li Cao grew up being pinched and beaten by Xu Xiuying, but at the age of four, he had to wash the whole family's clothes and the diapers of his younger sister. The old scalpers are the ones who eat less and work a lot. If they don't like it, they are beaten hard.

In the Li family, Li Cao had the lowest position, and even a little sister born after her mother could pinch her blue and purple.

Among them, Xu Xiuying beaten the most and the hardest. Baolin once went to Li's house with her aunt Li Tao when she was a child. She saw Li Cao being beaten. Bleeding, the rest of the Li family watched indifferently, with no reaction at all, as if cats and dogs were fighting beside it was normal.

Only Li Cao washed and fed the food by himself and watched with relish on the side of his older brother and sister. When the mood came, he would cheer on the side or throw a piece of soil and stone on it, and he would slap excitedly when he heard their elder sister's mourning.

On that one occasion, the impact was extremely strong, and images kept flashing in Pauline's mind that day, and she had nightmares all night long, and she developed a low-grade fever the next day.

After that, Su Hongying never let Bao Lin go to Li's house again. Li Tao was not happy when she saw Bao Lin like this. What do you mean?

However, although Paulin never went to the Li family, the shock that day was too much. From then on, the Li family, except Li Cao and Li Tao, were regarded as beasts of the flood, and they did not dare to touch the slightest bit.

Li Cao was beaten so badly in the Li family, and it is not that no one in the village said that they had persuaded the Li family and Xu Xiuying to try to persuade Li Cao to be better.

After all, it is really unpleasant for such a family to say it out in the village, even if it is said that the evil women are ruthless outside, the three characters of Shanghe Village should be added in front.

However, reputation and face are not eaten or drunk properly. The Li family and Xu Xiuying don't care. They can't even eat. Who cares about reputation. If you lose face, you can lose it, and if you pick it up, you can pick it up. Now you are poor. With such a ghost, who cares!
People who care about face and reputation can use it to restrain them, and those who don't care are just ass, and it's true that there is no steamed bun.

Xu Xiuying said, "My child, you can hit whatever you want. Even if you kill him, you won't be able to control it, and everything will be blocked.

Now the villagers treat their children as their parents' private property. Even though Xu Xiuying treats Li Cao so much, she still thinks it is a family matter, a private matter, and can only be persuaded or secretly given food to the children. Others have no position to intervene. There is no way to control it, this is the rules of the village.

The poor family and unsatisfactory life made Xu Xiuying blame all the culprits on Li Cao, so she beat and scolded Li Cao frantically and refused to let it go. The source of her pain was her life-and-death enemy, and she couldn't be happy without seeing Li Cao laying down and mourning with bruises all over her body.

If it weren't for Li Cao's ability and usefulness when he was a child, his family couldn't be too busy, and he would have been beaten to death. After Li Cao grew up, Xu Xiuying became more and more ruthless. When it happens, it's called a ruthless one.

Maybe in the future, when she is rich and her life is better, she will care about things like fame and face, and she will put on human skin again to smile gently and kindly, talk to other people with a smile, and tease and kindness to the juniors.

In a few years, everything they have done before will be turned over, time will help them wash away all the dirt, and then they will be the kind people who are called by others.

But now Xu Xiuying is the No. [-] poisonous woman in Shanghe Village, and her reputation is ten miles against the wind.

In private, when the aunts were paying attention to her, they said that she was inferior to a beast, and more poisonous than a tiger. At least a beast tiger would not harm her own children so much.

Of course, the Li family is not a good thing either. Who in the village doesn't know that the Li family is a pack of wolves, and the ones born behind Xu Xiuying are not a good thing either.
