  Holding Chang'an, she hurried to the new house and met Song Yufeng, the old daughter of her mother-in-law and father-in-law.

  "Third sister-in-law, mother asked you to go to the market to get a pot of wine. There are guests waiting for us at home." Song Yufeng stopped Wu and said.

  Wu's face turned cold and her tone was light: "I will send Chang'an home first."

  It was like this every time. As long as the second sister-in-law asked someone to send something back, the mother-in-law would either order her to do this or that, or lock her and Chang'an in the old house. Anyway, she would not let anyone see Chang'an. Who knows what she was thinking?

  Today she must see someone, and then show Chang'an to him, and by the way, ask him to let the second sister-in-law know about the situation at home.

  "Leave Chang'an to me, you just go to the market to get some wine."

  Song Yufeng stuffed a string of copper coins into the arms of the third sister-in-law and reached out to hug Chang'an.

  Changan turned away, wrapped her arms around her aunt's neck, and said in horror: "No, no!"

  The little aunt liked to beat people the most. She often twisted her ears, slapped her mouth, and pierced her palms with needles. It hurt so much, and he didn't want her to hug him at all.

  Song Yufeng was angry, her eyebrows were raised, and she slapped Changan on the back of his head: "You little bastard! How can you be so ignorant?"

  Wu quickly protected Changan and said angrily: "Yufeng! Why did you hit her for no reason?"

  Song Yufeng's face darkened: "You little bastard have been spoiled by you!"

  Seeing Wu pass by and carry Changan by herself, Song Yufeng stamped her feet in anger and stopped her again: "Third sister-in-law! What time is it? You are still dawdling? Mother told you to go and come back quickly, don't delay entertaining the guests!" Wu

  pursed her lips and said nothing, bypassed her sister-in-law and continued to rush to the new house.

  Suddenly, a strong force attacked from behind, pushing her heavily into the ditch by the roadside.

  When she fell into the ditch, Wu subconsciously took a step to avoid pressing Changan in her arms into the water.

  But one of her feet sank into the mud, and she felt a sharp pain in

  her ankle. Changan was thrown out and rolled all over the mud. She was so scared that she burst into tears and crawled over to hug Wu: "Aunt."

  "If you don't accept my toast, you will be punished, hum!" Song Yufeng kicked over the shepherd's purse basket and turned away.

  Wu was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat. It was not easy for her to pull her foot out of the mud.

  Before she could climb ashore with Changan in her arms, she saw Mrs. Zhao and Song Yufeng coming back.

  Mrs. Zhao cursed: "Useless waste! I asked you to go to the market to get a drink and you fell down!"

  "It's just right that you don't need to go. Bring the money! Let your sister and nephew go!"

  She searched the string of copper coins from Wu's pocket and handed it back to her daughter Song Yufeng.

  Then she and Song Yufeng lifted Wu up and dragged her back to the old house.

  Little Chang'an stumbled back and was pushed into the house by Mrs. Zhao. With a clang, the door was locked.

  Wu sat on the ground and couldn't help crying. She frightened little Chang'an and started crying too. She hugged her neck and stammered to comfort her, "Aunt, don't cry."

  The more anxious she was, the worse her stuttering became. She simply stopped talking and wiped her aunt's tears with her little hands covered with mud. She

  immediately took her hands back after wiping them.

  Her little hands were covered with mud, and they were all smeared on her aunt's face.

  Chang'an stood up guiltily and looked around for water to wash her hands.

  But there was no water in the room, and the door was locked, so she couldn't get out.

  Chang'an was very angry, and she cried out through the crack of the door, "Open the door! Open, open the door!"

  She didn't know that Song Yufeng was guarding outside the yard. No matter who came to ask, she told them: Third Aunt was throwing a tantrum in the house, and Dad asked her to calm down for a while and let her out when she calmed down.

  The villagers had to shake their heads and leave.

  Song Sanshun was not at home, so who dared to interfere in his wife's affairs? It's possible that Mrs. Zhao would splash dirty water all over her.

  Wu cried for a while, and then she stopped crying. She barely jumped to the front of the kang with one foot, called Xiao Chang'an over, and helped her take off her clothes and shoes. She

  also took a cloth to wipe the mud off her head, face and hands, and let Chang'an get into the bed.

  Xiao Chang'an showed his two big eyes from the bed, saw that his aunt's ankle was swollen and thick, and immediately leaned over to blow: "Hoo, hoo, it hurts, it hurts so much."     Wu touched her little head, tears could not stop flowing: "Changan, auntie is too careless."

  Changan did not understand what her auntie said, blinked: "Tell, tell uncle."

  Wu's tears flowed even harder, and she could not help complaining: "Your third uncle is a coward, it's useless to tell him!"

  Everyone in the village knew that Song Sanshun was the most docile. He watched his stepmother and stepbrother ride on his own brother's head and pee and shit, and dared not fart. Knowing that

  his stepmother treated him harshly, he was still willing to plow the fields and work like a cow and a horse for the whole family.

  Just after the first month of the year, Song Sanshun was assigned to do river work, and he took on the work of Song Jizu and him.

  That's fine. He knew that his wife and little niece were not living well under the hands of the old woman, but he never said a word. What could she expect from such a cowardly man?

  Wu felt more and more sad, and cried for a long time on the quilt.

  Now that she had sprained her ankle, her mother-in-law locked them in the house again. In such cold weather, they couldn't even get grass to heat the kang.

  Chang'an saw her aunt crying all the time, thinking that her ankle hurt, so she kept sneezing.

  Not to mention, Wu's ankle gradually stopped hurting, but it was still very red and swollen.

  She hugged Chang'an and wrapped him in the quilt, and slowly fell asleep.

  Then Chang'an had another long dream, dreaming that she was catching fish by the water.

  The golden fish were so beautiful, and their tail fins were as shiny as silk ribbons, but she could never catch them.

  Suddenly, the golden and red fish turned into beautiful little people, wearing long hair, swimming and throwing water drops at her, one, two, three.

  The water drops didn't hurt at all when they hit Chang'an's face, just like splashing water drops.

  Chang'an picked up the drops one by one, and was about to throw them back, but found that the water drops were crystal clear and very beautiful, and they were still rolling around in the palm of her hand, and suddenly got into her skin.

  Chang'an screamed in fear and woke up from her dream.

  "What's wrong?" Wu took Chang'an in her arms: "Are you having a nightmare?"

  Chang'an nodded, and with a sad face, she stretched out her little hand to show her aunt: "Zhuzhu... Zuan."

  Wu didn't understand, and thought that her niece's hand was bitten by a bedbug, so she pinched it and looked over and over.

  "There are no red marks, it's okay." Wu comforted.

  Chang'an blinked and looked at the palm of her hand in confusion.

  The water droplets were clearly flashing in the palm of her hand, why couldn't her aunt see it?

  Chang'an was even more panicked, and scratched her palm a few times with her other hand, scratching her palm red, but the three water droplets were still shining.

  At this moment, the door of the house was pushed open, and Song Jizu's wife Xiao Zhao came in with a food box in her hand.

  "Third sister-in-law, I brought you food." She opened the food box with a smile, and there was a bowl of braised pork and a large bowl of white rice in it.

  Xiao Zhao was the niece of Mrs. Zhao. She married Song Jizu and gave birth to a son, Song Chengye, three years later. She gave birth to a daughter, Song Xiyue.

  At this time, Song Xiyue followed behind Xiao Zhao, looking straight at Song Changan with a pair of dark eyes.

  Changan had long been attracted by the braised pork, and his saliva could not help but flow down. He did not pay attention to Song Xiyue's eyes at all.

  "I just heated it up. Third brother and sister-in-law, take Changan to eat it quickly, it will be cold soon."

  Xiao Zhao laid the chopsticks diligently, and when Wu did not move, she brought the food box to the kang table.

  Wu was very thin, so she thanked him softly and picked up the bowl to feed Changan first.

  Changan ate a mouthful of rice obediently and stammered, "Auntie, eat too."

  Wu picked up a piece of braised pork and fed it to Changan's mouth, "Changan, eat a bite, auntie also eat a bite."

  Changan nodded heavily, stuffed a whole piece of braised pork in his mouth, and chewed slowly with his mouth puffed.

  It was so delicious. She hadn't eaten meat for a long time.

  Suddenly, she heard a vicious voice in her mind:

  [Look at you, you idiot. You must have never eaten meat in your eight lifetimes. I'm choking you!]

  [Hehehe! You deserve to eat our leftovers for the rest of your life! We originally fed them to the dogs, but my mother was kind-hearted and brought them to you two dogs along with the leftover soup! It tastes good! It smells good! Hahahaha…]
