Chapter 12 I Heard You Killed Someone With a Knife

Speaking of several older sisters, Xu Shuxin had to sigh that her parents were really able to give birth.

There were seven in her life, all of them were girls, and two pairs of twins were born.

The eldest sister is 19 years old, and she was married last year. She married to the commune next door, in the mountains.

It was Mrs. Xu who found the family, and because the dowry was high, so she ignored Xu Qingmu's objection, and sent him there on the day Xu Qingmu went to work.

To go to my eldest sister’s house, I have to take a car to the commune next door, cross a big river, and then go over mountains and ridges. It takes a day to get there.

The second sister is 16 years old, and she is almost at the age of talking about others. Before the separation, Mrs. Xu was already looking for a candidate.

The third and fourth sisters are twins, 15 years old this year.

The fifth sister is 12 years old this year.

Sixth Sister and she are also twins, who just turned seven years old this year.

Xu Shuxin guessed that if it wasn't because she hurt her body when giving birth to the sixth sister and herself, her mother would definitely continue to give birth, just to fight for her son.

But at the old house just now, his father said he didn't want a son anymore, did he really think so?

Looking at the sisters who were chattering excitedly because they changed their names, Xu Shuxin felt that it was okay to have no sons, as long as the sisters were able to make a fortune in the future, they could still provide for their parents!
"The meal is ready, let's eat!"

Cui Lanhua's voice interrupted the conversation of several sisters and Xu Shuxin's wandering thoughts.

Because there were no tables, chairs or benches, Xu Qingmu's family squatted under the eaves to eat the first meal after the separation, but even so, they couldn't resist the joy in their hearts.

Xu Shuxin touched her stomach contentedly, "It feels so good to be full!"

The feeling of being hungry is really uncomfortable!
She vowed that in the future, she would work hard to earn points to exchange for food for the family, so that the family would no longer have to suffer from hunger.

The second sister couldn't help but burped, and echoed her words, "In the future, I must work hard to earn work points, so that our family can get more food!"

Cui Lanhua couldn't help yelling at her, "Then you can't be lazy anymore."

The second sister retorted, "At that time there was no separation, so why did I work so hard? Anyway, no matter how many work points we earn, we can't get enough to eat, so it's better to work less, don't you think?"

The third sister nodded one after another, saying, "Second sister is right"!
The corners of Xu Shuxin's lips curled up, and she also agreed with the second sister's words.

Her second sister is not a character who can be squeezed and flattened by others, and she is also a little clever.

Not only was she being lazy, but she also made the younger sisters to be lazy too, and she was very skillful at being lazy.

When others saw it, they also lamented that the sisters were diligent, but they worked too slowly, and they were often hungry and had no energy.

It's also terrible.

Xu Qingmu also praised the second sister, "Second sister, no, it's Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu is very smart, but we have to take it easy when we work for ourselves in the future, so don't tire yourself out."

The second sister smiled confidently: "Father, don't worry, we know."

After eating enough, Second Sister Xu took the initiative to wash the dishes, and Xu Shuxin also joined in, but they didn't let her do it, they just let her watch from the sidelines.

The bowls and chopsticks made of bamboo are all cut by Xu Qingmu himself. Every bowl and every pair of chopsticks are polished very smooth, because there is no oil and water, they can be easily washed.

From here, we can see what kind of life their family lived in the Xu family before they separated.

Rough porcelain bowls don't cost much, but Mrs. Xu just refuses to buy them for their family, so everyone else in Xu's family has porcelain bowls, and only their family uses bamboo bowls.

What's more, the whole family wears straw sandals, not even a pair of cloth shoes. Even the six-foot cloth tickets that each of them get every year are almost lost.

So the clothes of Xu Shuxin and the others are all made from the old clothes of Xu Qingmu and his wife, the big ones are worn by the small ones, and there is not even any extra cloth for shoes.

It’s okay if it’s summer now, but if it’s winter…

Whether it was Xu Shuxin or Xu Qingmu and his wife, their feet were covered with frostbite.

It hurts and itches...it's really hard!

Thinking of that feeling, Xu Shuxin felt that the task was a bit heavier.

She wished she could go out right now, so that she could meet people in need and accumulate points.

But thinking about it, her father and sisters are worried about letting her go out alone.

But well...

Xu Shuxin rolled her eyes and followed Xu Qingmu, "Father, where are you going? I'm going too."

Xu Qingmu turned his head, saw the little girl running towards him, and hurriedly said: "Don't run!"

As soon as the words fell, Xu Shuxin had already arrived in front of Xu Qingmu, "Father, I want to be with you."

Xu Qingmu squatted down, "Father is going to find someone to borrow tools for repairing the house. You still have a head injury, so don't go out, and play with your sisters at home."

Now it was time to get off work, and the team leader would be at home too, so he had to borrow tools to repair the roof, and if there was a hole in the wall that collapsed, he had to use mud bricks to fill it up.

The mud bricks used by the brigade to build houses are all made by themselves. It does not cost money, but it takes a lot of work. Except for those who are planning to build houses, few people have mud bricks ready.

It also happens that there are two families who are going to build a house now, and they have made some mud bricks. Xu Qingmu is going to borrow them first, and starting tomorrow, he can use the time off work to make mud bricks and return them.

Whichever company in the brigade needs to use mud bricks due to unexpected situations, they all do this, so Xu Qingmu's move is not abrupt.

The second sister hurriedly persuaded her when she heard the words, "Xinxin, listen to your father, stay at home obediently, and go out to play after you are better."

Xu Shuxin made up her mind to follow, so she acted coquettishly with Xu Qingmu, "Father, I want to go, why don't you take me with you! I will obediently follow you and never run around!"

Unable to resist her daughter's acting like a baby, Xu Qingmu finally agreed.

In order for his daughter to keep up with his pace, he deliberately slowed down.

The family of the captain and the family planning to build a house are both in the middle of the village, so they have to go through half of the village.

Along the way, they encountered many people squatting or sitting under the big tree with rice bowls in their hands to eat lunch.

The weather is too hot, and the commune members like to go out to eat instead of indoors. Not only is it cooler, but they can also chat with neighbors.

Seeing their father and daughter, everyone looked at them with curious eyes.

There is no way, the village is so big, which couples exchanged a few words, which couples made more noise in bed, and the whole brigade knew it the next day.

So yesterday Xu Qingmu threatened the old lady Xu with a knife and asked for money to see a doctor for the fool's daughter and to raise a family split. Now everyone knows.

What I saw with my own eyes at the scene yesterday was fine, those members who just heard about it were extremely curious!

Who made Xu Qingmu's image all the time be honest, dull and easy to bully, they couldn't imagine that the behavior like yesterday would be done by an honest person like Xu Qingmu.

"Qingmu, I heard that you hacked someone with a knife yesterday?" Someone asked.
