Chapter 76
In the courtyard of the Su family.

Su Jiu's eyes were red and swollen, obviously she had been crying for a long time.Since he got the news in the morning, when he was chased and beaten by those people, Su Jiu didn't cry. Later, it was the old man Su who knelt down and begged the Liu family, and the Liu family stopped.Su Jiu was angry and depressed, not because of his own fate, but because of his own incompetence, causing the relatives around him to suffer too, and the old man Su who was injured would kneel down and beg for others when he was old.

Old man Su's brows were clouded into mist and sorrow, Xiao Shan also had a troubled face, and Mother Su bowed her head in silence, crying repeatedly.

"Hey... I knew the Liu family would not let it go." Old man Su took the trouble to beat the ground with his cigarette pipe and pot.

The dull sound fell to the ground, tugging at the person's heart, just like Su Jiu's restless heart at the moment.

Appointed, she told herself again in her heart, your fate is like this, you can't escape, you can't hide, you can't change it.

Although how I want to escape from such a life, how can I create this world?In this patriarchal society where women are just tools, it seems that she really has no other way out except to cling to men.

"The Liu family has a big business. One dies and another one dies. Where can the little Liuzi, who is only a few years old, go? I heard that the uncle of the Liu family has returned from the border. I'm afraid this matter will be difficult. "Old man Su took a sharp puff of his cigarette pipe. Thinking of Su Jiu who was chased and beaten just now, his heart throbbed. My daughter, who usually beats her by herself, how can she tell others to move a hair?
However, the Liu family was not forgiving, so they called in a dozen big men to clamor, and wanted Su Jiu to give an explanation, but what did the Liu family matter have to do with Su Jiu.Who told the Liu family to have a big business? Where can they reason? !
Su Xiaoshan elbowed Su Jiu who had been bowing his head in silence, "Sister, why don't I go for you. It's not just a coolie, I'll go."

The old man Su jumped up like a grasshopper, "Brat, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Su Xiaoshan frowned, "Father, I'm a man, what's wrong with me going? Could it be just asking my sister to go? Then the Liu family just thought our family was poor, so they suppressed us everywhere, and said that human life is at stake. Go to the county government to sue us. Is there no reason? Otherwise, father will tell me to go, or wait for the Liu family to report to the government. Anyway, I can’t ask my sister to be sent to the tiger’s mouth.”

The old man Su picked up his stick and was about to call out, "Tianluan, you go, you go...you will be fine if you go? The Liu family has made it clear that they are looking for trouble, and no one is allowed to go. Ask your sister to go Why are you so kind? Hmph, those boys from the Liu family are all gangsters, so they can't go, can't go."

Su Xiaoshan dodged again and again, pulled Su Jiu to block him, stuck out half of his head and continued, "Father, do you have an idea?"

"No! No one is allowed to go anyway. Go read your book, you brat, don't make trouble."

"Hey, telling the girl to go home, isn't it just telling us to give away our little wine to others? What can we say if we don't have a name or a share? Isn't this life just over?" Mother Su whispered while touching her tears.

In a word, Su Xiaoshan took a peek at Su Jiu who was standing with his hands hanging down, and pursed his lips, "Mother, it's so easy to say, anyway, none of us are allowed to go, no matter what the background is, we just can't go. The Liu family is Where can I go and come back alive?”

Mother Su looked at Su Jiu, who was sobbing constantly, and patted her on the shoulder, "Daughter, what should I do? How will the whole family live? Your father and I still have Xiao Shan, this is the end. Xiao Shan You have to take the exam to get fame, it seems that it will not work."

Old man Su thought it was Su's mother who would say something close to himself, but the more he listened, the more something went wrong, he staggered to his feet, closed his eyes slightly, and when he opened them, they were already flushed, his eyes were watery, and his voice was hoarse and dry, "Su Jiu , go with dad, dad will take you away." With a "plop", he threw the flagon in his hand.

Su Jiu's heart trembled, and tears welled up again. Family affection is always so important.

She was lucky enough, a drop of water dripped from her eyes, and she said in a low voice, "None of you will be safe, I'll go..."

The old man Su was out of breath, and angrily threw away the pipe and pot in his hand, pointed at Su Jiu but didn't speak for a long while, and after he paused, he hurried away.

Su's mother was also silent.

Su Xiaoshan wanted to dissuade him, but was pushed away by Su Jiu, "Go read your book, sister will have a solution."

This day was long and bleak, and the heavy things hit everyone's hearts with pain.

The night came a little early that day, and after a burst of turbulent clouds surrounded the sky, it suddenly turned red like a fire.The rain that had been suffocating all night did not start, but warm wind blew leisurely.

Su Jiu leaned against the window, looking at the cold jugs in the courtyard.

Su Xiaoshan, who pushed the door behind him, leaned on the crack of the door and looked at her, seeming a little hesitant.

"The hill."

"Sister!" Su Xiaoshan opened the door and walked up to her.

"Xiaoshan, after my sister is gone, take care of my parents."

"Sister, I won't let you go." Su Xiaoshan fixedly looked at Su Jiu in front of him.

"I will find a way. Nothing will happen to my family. I know what will happen if I go there. It's getting late, go to bed!"

"Sister..." Su Xiaoshan called her to stop.

"what?"

"Why don't you go to the prince, why don't you have such a good fortune, will it make you suffer if you follow the prince?" Xiao Shan really didn't understand.

"Xiao Shan, you don't understand, go to sleep." Su Jiu patted his shoulder, "You just need to study, I will take care of the rest."

This night, she did not sleep.

Also sleepless is the news of being embellished, which spread like crazy to every corner of Youxia Mountain Village, including the milk doll who just landed in amazement, this news stunned everyone's faces.

Before dawn the next day, the folks who heard the news came here with hoes on their shoulders to watch the fun, big and small, men, women, old and young, surrounded by the gate of the courtyard.

You speak my word.

"Hey, what a crime, he was sold out so quickly. Those who have no background really suffer. That little uncle is probably doing it for himself, hey..."

This version probably heard that the Liu family sold Su Jiu, because Su Jiu married the dead eldest son of the Liu family?The uncle naturally has the right to sell her, it's only right and proper.

"Huh? What are you talking about? I heard that it's not for sale. It's just a reward from a senior official in the imperial city. Su Jiu is going to the imperial city to enjoy his happiness."

This version should be rumored together with the money that Nie Wuhuan sent over last time. With a hint of envy in her eyes, she wondered why her daughter didn't have this blessing? !
"Tsk tsk, what do you know? I've heard about it. Because the Liu family couldn't swallow their breath last time, they deliberately said that. It was just a cover to send a girl to that high official. This gift should be Shouldn’t you be able to beat others’ power?!”

This version strings two things together, which is amazing.

"Ah? A crime!"

"That's right, what a good girl. Hey... Thanks to the Su family for giving birth to such a good girl."

"Yeah, it's okay, the girl from Mrs. Li's family is ugly!"

"Hey? I said what did you say? What's wrong with my girl being ugly? Is it because she can't get married or can't do housework?"

"I just said that, what are you talking about?"

"What am I talking about? What do you think I'm talking about?"

"Hey? Take a look at your cowardly behavior, or is your girl also attracted by other high officials?"

"I said, daughter-in-law of the Wan family, what are you talking about? Is your head and butt dislocated? Why do you speak so badly?"

"Why are you swearing? Tell me to try again?!"

"Hey, hey? Let me say, what are you arguing about here? Don't you think it's not messy enough?"

Watching the excitement being there, the two mothers-in-law and aunts fought outside Su's house.

Su Jiu turned over and changed his posture, letting go of the constant noise outside, good things never go out, and bad things spread far and wide, especially in this poor and remote mountain village of Rangers.

Su Xiaoshan, who couldn't sit still, put on his clothes and ran out of the wooden building, picked up the broom on the ground and ran out, "I said, are you telling people to sleep? Get out of here."

"Hey, go, go, go..."

The crowd dispersed.

The young master of the Li family who came out to look around took a look, and was about to step forward, but Su Xiaoshan turned his head and walked away very unkindly.

Mr. Li still stepped forward and asked, "Is Miss Su here?"

"Here, Brother Li, don't listen to other people's nonsense about my sister. You are a scholar, so you shouldn't inquire about these things." Xiaoshan was a little bit unkind, and even spoke with a trace of resentment, just like a wronged mother-in-law.

"I'm afraid the little brother misunderstood me. I'm going into the town. If Miss Su is really bored here, I can take her and hide away for a while."

Su Xiaoshan was taken aback, thought for a while, and nodded to Mr. Li, "Brother Li, wait for me to ask my sister."

Mr. Li stood outside the courtyard gate, watching eagerly.

A quarter of an hour later, Su Jiu ran out carrying the package, followed by Su Xiaoshan, his henchman, and hurriedly dragged Mr. Li to the outside, "Hurry up, don't bring Xiaoshan, I'll go to Mr. Zhou's place to find Xiaotong."

"Ah, Miss Su, the carriage is over there." Mr. Li was dragged by her, and pointed in another direction with some embarrassment.

"Ah, let's go!" Su Jiu was surprised.

When they got into the carriage, they saw Su Xiaoshan running away with Old Man Su and Mother Su. Su Jiu had already explained everything, so she avoided the limelight and waited for her good news.Ever since, the old man Su took his wife and children and ran away. As for the whereabouts, Su Jiu didn't know.

Relying on her relationship with Zhou Xiang, Su Jiu left alone. Even if she was caught by the Liu family, she would not implicate her family members. She made a good plan and felt much happier. Sitting like this in the Li family On the young master's carriage, he hurried on the road.

"Mr. Li, what are you doing in the town? Hey, thank you for your timely action, otherwise I don't know what to do?"

"Miss Su, you are being polite. This is what I should do. We are in the same village. I should be helping."

"Hey, I still need to thank you a lot."

"It's okay."

"I'm going to hide in Zhou Xiang's small courtyard for a few days, maybe he can help me, but I really don't know how to say it, he helped me last time, hey..."

"..." Mr. Li didn't speak, but looked at her indifferently.

"By the way, you haven't said what you're doing in town yet?"

"I'm going to find someone."

"Oh!"

"Young Master Li's family lives nearby, so why haven't you seen anyone from the Li family?"
