you touched my years

Chapter 9 Snuff Bottles

Today's weather is extremely hot, like there is heavy rain, Liu Xiaoyu quickened his pace, taking advantage of the good weather at the moment, he hurried to run a few more times, that strange morning has passed for a few days, every time he came here She seemed to still be able to remember his figure in the grove, as well as the smell of blood.I don't know if his injury has healed, let alone, his life seems to be the same as in the previous life.

In the previous life, she didn't know who would save him who was seriously injured. She didn't know about it. She just knew that they still met in a completely different time in this life. However, this time, she let go and didn't want to step in. , His life, she has never understood it, and she is not qualified to understand it...

Liu Xiaoyu rummaged through the trash can, and there were dozens of plastic bottles that were half full of sacks. The small bowl of rice porridge in the morning had long been digested in the morning's work, and the corners of her lips were a little chapped. Growling stomach.

I found a bench and sat down, and took out a steamed bun I just bought on the side of the road from my pocket. This place is close to the back hill of the park, and it is in the shade. Except for that accidental break-in by Qiu Zeran, few people pass by here.

The wooden stool is not too short, and Liu Xiaoyu sat on it with her feet just touching the bottom. Such a rare morning made her full of confidence in the future, and her feet wobbled against the stone, as if she had kicked something. , There was a rattling sound, and when I looked down, a round white and golden object fell on the right foot of the wooden bench and was kicked by myself.

Liu Xiaoyu bent down and picked it up. It was a strange small white bottle, half the size of her palm, with a small mouth and a smooth surface, similar to the luster of the white jade Buddha on her adoptive mother Wang Xiaohong.

There is a crabapple vine carved on it, just like the crabapple planted in their courtyard, it is very beautiful, even the stamens can be clearly seen, and it is hollow, this crabapple flower seems to be attached to it, full of three-dimensional effect , there are some golden things at the bottom of the bottle, which she doesn't recognize, but this off-white small bottle with a little bit of gold makes Liu Xiaoyu feel extra hot.

This thing, just looking at the craftsmanship, makes me feel that it is very valuable, let alone those golden things, I don’t know who dropped it here, if someone picked it up, would I be crazy?Of course, Liu Xiaoyu herself has no intention of taking things for herself. In the Liu family, nothing is her own, even a small piece of firewood picked out from the boiler is also Liu's family and has nothing to do with Liu Xiaoyu. .

So, all Liu Xiaoyu thought about at the moment was that the owner of this thing should be in a hurry if he dropped it, and looked around, but there was no one, even the old people who had been doing morning exercises in the past had scattered away.

The thing in your hand is engraved on the palm of your hand, and someone will definitely come back to look for such a valuable thing. At the moment, you can only continue to sit down. You said to put it back where it was. Thank you. You can see it by looking at it. If someone picks it up, wouldn't it harm the owner?

Looking at the sky, it seems that this rain is inevitable. Fortunately, the things in the bag are all bottles, otherwise it will be a disaster if the newspapers are discarded. I don’t know when the owner will come, so I have to sit on the wooden bench and wait. caught.

One drop, two drops, the rain was falling from the sky, and it took only a few minutes to see where it came from. Liu Xiaoyu dragged her snakeskin bag to find a place to hide, but she didn't dare to go far, even the nearest grove , could only squat down and put the snakeskin bag on the wooden stool so that they could block the top of their heads.

The rain lasted for more than half an hour, and Liu Xiaoyu was shivering from the cold. There was almost no dry place on her body, but she persisted like this. Under the heavy rain, she stayed in place without moving an inch.

"Master Man? Do you want to ask?" The middle-aged man holding an umbrella standing behind Liu Mancang looked at the girl not far away from picking up something, to sitting on the wooden stool without moving a bit, and then to the heavy rain The girl who was still sticking to her spot felt a little softer.

His mouth has gone too far, but that frail 7- or 8-year-old girl makes people want to care and feel pitiful. Yes, the word "weakness" has almost never appeared in his career. , now used on the little girl in front of me.

Liu Mancang didn't speak, and just stood at the corner from the beginning to the end. His body was also drenched by the heavy rain blown by the wind, and the cold wind made his chest itchy unbearably. The sound of coughing and coughing was always mixed with the sound of rain. with.

Lao Zhou didn't know what Man Ye was thinking, he just wondered what it meant that he only stood in the distance looking at the girl but didn't approach her.

When the heavy rain stopped, he thought that Man Ye would pass by now, but he still didn't, his back was already leaning against him and he couldn't support it, Lao Zhou felt all the weight on him almost instantly, but Liu Mancang still didn't say a word, and if he didn't speak, Lao Zhou could only stand behind him forever, without moving his hands or speaking.

The weather in June and July is like a child’s face. It was still pouring rain just now, and now the sun is shining again. It’s cold and hot for a while. No one knows what happened on this quiet morning in such a season. .

Lao Zhou looked at the old man in front of him, then at the little girl who was still under the scorching sun, he was a little confused, "Let's go..."

There are only two words, and I don’t want anything, so I turned my head and left. Lao Zhou had many questions in his mind, but he couldn’t ask them. Liu Mancang’s eccentric temper was beyond his comprehension. Er clearly saw that the little girl had picked it up, so he didn't go up to ask for it, but stood here blankly for an hour, and now he even said to leave, he was extremely puzzled.

"Go and check her"

Of course he knew who she was, but he didn't expect that Liu Mancang would be interested in such a little girl. Going back, he has already crossed the distance once, and he will not allow himself to cross the distance for the second time. He is supposed to be a ruthless person, isn't he?
Waiting until the sunset, but still no one came to claim it, Liu Xiaoyu looked at the setting sun, so she could only pack up her things and leave, try again tomorrow.

After being delayed for a long time today, she hardly found anything, and the rags in her pocket were sold for 5 yuan. She could predict what would be waiting for her when she returned home.

The bruised and swollen eye on the left eye has disappeared a lot, but it is really blurry when looking at things, and it is even half-blind at night. Fortunately, except when I go out to drink for Liu Fagui, I seldom go out at other times go out.

Sure enough, Liu Yuancai was waiting at the gate early in the morning. Liu Xiaoyu took out 1 yuan hesitantly and said, "It's raining heavily today, so there's nothing to pick up."

Liu Yuancai has been getting two yuan a day for a few days, and the excitement has not yet passed. Although he is not satisfied with just one yuan at the moment, it is also a huge sum of money for him who has just tasted the sweetness, so it is just She pursed her lips and said, "Tomorrow, you can pick up more and make up the money for me."

After speaking, he rushed back to the building again, and Liu Xiaoyu went up behind him. Seeing that the money was only more than 5 yuan, Wang Xiaohong immediately stepped down and yelled at Liu Xiaoyu, "Damn girl, why are you so small? Say, where are you going?" I'm lazy." As soon as he finished shouting, he was about to greet his upper body with a feather duster, Liu Xiaoyu hid in the corner of the wall a little shyly, "It's raining heavily today, not many people came out."

"Hey, it's raining in the morning, you think my old lady is easy to lie, don't you dare to say that there are few people in such a bright sun?"

Liu Xiaoyu was a bit poor at words, in the eyes of the Liu family, she was just a muffled voice, so she naturally closed her mouth at this moment, and was still beaten down by Wang Xiaohong's feather duster, but every time she slapped, the hatred in her heart The more she felt the pain, the more she had experienced such beatings countless times, but now the pain on her skin still made her hate a little more.

"Mom, I'm hungry, why don't you let me eat?" Maybe the money given by Liu Xiaoyu finally worked. Liu Yuancai shouted after Liu Xiaoyu was hit a few times. Wang Xiaohong stopped when she heard that her son was hungry. , and yelled at Liu Xiaoyu twice, telling her that if she dared to be lazy tomorrow, she would be beaten to death Yunyun.

Of course, Liu Xiaoyu's dinner was also gone, and she was punished to kneel at the door, facing the gate of the compound, where everyone in the courtyard could see, but these are all things that are taken for granted, this girl always has such a few times a week , Either it was beaten severely, or it was punished to kneel, and the blame is only for the girl's bad life, and she fell into the hands of this family.

Will Liu Xiaoyu be grateful to Liu Yuancai? Of course not, because she could clearly see Liu Yuancai's smile just now. If she really asked for love, why didn't she ask for love before she was beaten, but after she had been beaten a few times? It's all the same, insidious, vicious, she can't stay in this kind of home for a moment, but she can only stay, she doesn't have the ability, she doesn't have enough money, she will endure, she will endure all the suffering Go on, but she believes that such a day will not last long, it must be...
