six-fingered peasant girl

Chapter 48 Achievement
Ning Lazi glanced at her, picked up the backpack and walked towards the town.

"Go slowly, uncle, I'll close the door for you." Su Liu waved his hand, looked at Ning Lazi's back, and said in his heart, this uncle looked cold, but he also had a warm heart.

Looking down at the money in her bosom, Su Liu's eyes were shining brightly, she pursed her lips and made up her mind, this time she can't spend it recklessly, the matter of moving out of Su's house is imminent, there must be some money by her side.

After coming out of Ning Lazi's house, Su Liu ran to the grocery store in the village. The owner of the store, Mrs. Ping, known as the pretty widow, was sitting at the door cracking melon seeds. Stand up with a smiley face.

"Isn't this a girl from the Su family, but she's here to make soy sauce?"

Su Liu took a quick look at Ping. She was about 25 or [-] years old. She wore her hair in a bun, wore two silver hairpins, and wore two pearl earrings on her ears. Looking carefully at her eyebrows and eyes, there is a hint of charm.

It's no wonder that the men in the village are fascinated by it, but the charm is still there, and it is a bit more beautiful and elegant than the vulgar village women.

Such a young man with a son, an orphan and a widowed mother just guards a grocery store to live without any embarrassment, which shows that he has some means.

"Sister-in-law Ping, let me buy some eggs." Su Liu stepped forward with a smile.

Ping's was slightly stunned, there were people chattering in her shop, Ping's, and she had heard the rumors of Su Liu more than once, saying that after chopping off her finger, she seemed to be a different person, if it was true, look This generous smile, how could it be the gloomy and humble Liuzhier who didn't want to raise his head?
"Buy eggs, come here, pick." The customer came to the door and didn't rush out. Mrs. Ping stepped aside hurriedly, led Su Liu to a basket of eggs, and asked, "Your family also raises two or three eggs." Mother, why are you here to buy eggs?"

Farmers, there is no one who does not raise chickens, unless they are really poor and have no money to buy chicken breeds, but the Su family is not. It is considered a poor family in Da'ao Village. Anyway, the boss of the Su family is in the city. Doing work here!
Su Liu wanted to say that she didn't eat it by herself, but when she thought about it, she smiled wryly: "Sister-in-law Ping was joking, I can't eat our eggs, and my mother's head was broken again a while ago...but it was secretly given to me." She's just making up for herself."

Ping's action of eating melon seeds paused, and there was a trace of pity in his eyes. How the boss of the Su family treated Chen's is not a private matter in Da'ao Village. Even the daughter born with her is worse than the one born later. Look at this Know it all at once.

She also sees the second daughter of the Su family. Her clothes are all good, but they are not like this one. Look at the patchwork. Alas, they are all poor people.

Su Liu didn't miss her sympathy, she was slightly happy, and she pretended to be sad and said: "As the saying goes, if a son doesn't speak of his father's mistakes, I can't say anything, but please don't say it, sister-in-law, just be clear in your heart. Salute to sister-in-law." Saying that, he was about to salute.

"Oh, look at you child, they say you are promising, and it is true. You are filial to your mother, that's right, even if you say it, you can only praise you, but you don't want to say it." Mrs. Ping hurriedly stop her.

Su Liu immediately put on a terrified look, and said: "Sister-in-law Ping, please don't, our three mothers will suffer again later, it's not like there's nothing to eat...ah." Her voice suddenly stopped Stop, with a look of covering his mouth in panic after saying the wrong thing.

The Ping family heard it, at this moment, Su Liu's stomach gurgled again, and she immediately understood that this Su family was too much.

"Sister-in-law Ping, I'll just pick these few eggs, and you can figure out how much they cost." Su Liu hurriedly changed the subject, pointing to the eggs in the basket.

Sister-in-law Ping counted the eight eggs, which should have cost six Wen, and said, "Just give me five Wen."

Su Liu sighed, took out some money from her waist, counted and counted it, handed it to Mrs. Ping, and said: "Sister-in-law Ping, I saved this money secretly, can you not tell it? I came here to buy eggs, otherwise my grandma would say that I stole money."

"Yes, you came here to help me wash the soy sauce urn and earned it." Mrs. Ping pointed to the urn drying in front of the house.

"Then I have thanked sister-in-law." Su Liu smiled and bent her knees.

"Hey." Mrs. Ping waved her hand, then remembered something, grabbed a handful of candy from the basket, stuffed it into her hand and said, "Let's eat it with your sister, don't let that silver egg head see."

Su Liu was startled, and then showed a sincere smile: "Thank you, sister-in-law."

She sincerely thanked her, although earlier she also made use of elements to make a bitter scene and wanted to use Ping's mouth to publicize it, but she was really sympathetic.

Seeing her walking away, Mrs. Ping couldn't help but shook her head, and said: "It's really pitiful, and it's a very unfortunate fate." After this day, under Mrs. Ping's intentional or unintentional publicity, the Su family abused the eldest daughter-in-law and treated the eldest grandson harshly. The reputation of the female doting on the second wife quietly spread.

Su Liu came to the door of Lizheng's house with the eight eggs in his hand, feeling a little hesitant.

Lizheng is in charge of household registration, taxation, land and real estate matters. Lizheng's surname is Zhao in Da'ao Village. He is a bit shrewd, but he is not a treacherous person.

I don't know if these few eggs can knock on the door of Zhao Lizheng's house, Su Liu glanced at the vermilion gate in front of him, it was really a mansion.

Not able to think any more, she still held the copper ring and knocked on the door. An old man opened the door and squinted at Su Liu: "Who are you looking for?"

"Master, I'm from Da'ao Village, and I have something to do with Mr. Zhao Lizheng." Su Liu laughed all over.

The old man frowned, seeing that Su Liu was wearing a patched coarse cloth dress, he didn't want to answer, but seeing Su Liu's flattering eyes, he said, "Wait a while."

The old man closed the door, waited for a while, and then opened it again, saying, "Come in."

Su Liu entered the door, and didn't dare to look around, but the corner of her eyes still took in the scenery of this mansion, although it didn't have a garden like those big mansions, but it was very tidy, compared to ordinary mansions. The farmyard here is much more refined.

Entering a courtyard gate, the field of vision becomes wider. Although the four blue-brick and black-tile houses are not called carved beams and painted buildings, they are considered the most magnificent in the village. After all, Zhou Zhengliang is the hall.

It's strange that everyone wants to be an official. Look at such a dignified person, how can a villager who has been farming all his life deserve it?

"You're the one looking for me? Hey, aren't you that six-fingered girl from the Su family? What are you doing here?" Just as Su Liu was contemplating, a voice interrupted her thoughts.

Su Liu looked up, and saw a man about forty years old standing in front of the main room, wearing a gray long Confucian shirt, with two beards, looking at Su Liu.

This is Zhao Lizheng, Su Liu blinked, hurried forward, bowed and respectfully said: "Lord Zhao Lizheng is well, Su Liu took the liberty to come to disturb you."

Zhao Lizheng was taken aback, when did this girl become so polite?
He didn't think much about it, he called Su Liu into the room, and when he saw Su Liu offering a few eggs, he couldn't help being even more surprised, and asked, "Why is this?"

"Lord Lizheng, this is my tribute to you." Su Liu smiled and said, "I came here today to ask Lizheng, can the empty house in Bei'aozi be sold? I want to buy it." the haunted house."

"I want to buy a haunted house." Su Liu's voice echoed in the room, and Zhao Lizheng spewed out a mouthful of tea.

"You, what did you say?" Zhao Lizheng looked at Su Liu in shock, did he hear correctly?Buy a haunted house, the one in Bei'aozi?

"Lord Lizheng, I know this is a bit unimaginable, but I don't know how much money the house costs? Please tell me the number."

Su Liu's expression was very serious, making it impossible to tell that she was joking. Zhao Lizheng frowned, and said, "Everyone knows that house is a haunted house. It's been haunted all the year round. How dare you? Go ahead, you're just a kid. , do the adults in your family know?"

"Lord Lizheng." Su Liu knelt down in front of him with a plop.

"What are you doing?" Zhao Lizheng jumped up in fright.

"I beg Master Lizheng to make the decision for me." Su Liu kowtowed a few times after saying that.

Zhao Lizheng had a headache and said, "You have something to say, what are you doing all this?"

Su Liu raised her head, her face was full of tears, she looked very pitiful, and said in a sobbing voice: "Master Li Zheng must also know about my life experience, since I was a child, I was not to be loved by others, and others are fine, I No wonder, but my own biological father, among those relatives, which one of them ever regarded me as a relative? They only wished that they didn’t drown in the urine bucket when I was born, leaving me to be a burden to my family.”

"Nonsense." Zhao Lizheng raised his eyebrows in disapproval. He also knew a thing or two about the Su family's affairs. ?

"After all, the family members of the first relatives may not treat you that well, and they will drown you. After so many years, haven't you grown up? Children's families run away when they get angry with the family. What is this like?" Words? Hurry up and go back."

"Lord Lizheng, if they are kind to me, how can I spread rumors about them? What qualifications does a person like me have?" Su Liu stretched out her left hand.

Zhao Lizheng took a look, and his eyes fell on the scar where her finger had been chopped off. He was a little embarrassed, and his voice softened, and said: "What does that have to do with you buying a haunted house? You are a girl who has not left the court, and you still want to be alone. Can't you live there?"

Su Liu's eyes lit up, and she said: "So I beg Lord Lizheng to make the decision for me. I will not hide it from you, my mother intends to reconcile with my father, and my sister and I will definitely follow my mother. Once we leave Su Liu family, and turned against my uncle’s family, our three mothers have no place to stay, how are we going to live?"

"What? Heli?" Zhao Lizheng was shocked again. This is more unimaginable than buying a haunted house. How many men these days don't beat and scold their wives, and they have heard of divorce, but they have never heard of Heli.

Su Liu talked about Su Changsheng's evil deeds one by one, and at the end wiped her tears and said, "Lord Lizheng, we just want to live like human beings, not worse than dogs."

She said that there was no drama involved, after all, what she said was true, Su Changsheng was really so ruthless, and the three of them were indeed just a punching bag, extra.

Zhao Lizheng was a little stunned, but he was an ancient man after all, and he had a deep-rooted belief that all men were like this, which is not uncommon. Su Liu's action, on the contrary, seemed to be driving parents to reunite!
"You also know that it's not easy for you girls to come out alone, but if you dare to have this kind of thought, you might as well go back and persuade your mother, just bear with it and let it go."

Su Liu sneered, bear with it?I have endured it for more than ten years, enough is enough.

"I'm afraid my mother would have been bullied to death if I couldn't bear the day when the clouds opened. Master Lizheng thinks that my mother's life will be easier if the two of my sisters get married in the future? No, without the protection of my sisters, she It will only make life more difficult." Su Liu said coldly.

"Nonsense, do they still dare to kill people? I'll ask your grandpa to come over later, just to persuade him." Zhao Lizheng said with a stare.
