Chapter 50: That Year's Matter
Listening to Guan Feng's words, it is clear that he has attributed the injuries on Chu Yande's body to Chu Lishou and his wife.
Also, if they weren't hurt by their parents when they were young, how could they be so numb?
If it were Guan Yuze or Guan Tingting who got hit, let alone two large purple bruises, even if they just turned slightly red for a moment, Guan Feng would have to fight the person who hit them to the death.
After hearing Guan Feng's words, Manager Su and Mo couldn't help but exchange an awkward glance, then lowered their heads, both of them falling silent.
"Mother, brother's injury wasn't caused by Father and Mother, but rather..." Guihua, taking advantage of her "twelve-year-old" age, pretended to be innocent and naive, opening her mouth to reveal the truth.
Before she could finish speaking, Mrs. Mo interrupted her, "You little girl, go and wash your clothes!"
Washing clothes?
Osmanthus flowers stunned, mouth shriveled, no longer speaking, only pulling out a very wronged look to leave the stool, letting Chu Yande get up later, and walking out by herself.
Mo's words were meant to stop himself, but these were all things Osmanthus could have guessed.
According to Mo and Chu's characters, they would certainly not want outsiders to know about those embarrassing things in their own family.
And she was just about to leave when Mo Shi opened his mouth and told her to get out.
If Mo didn't drive himself out, how would he have the opportunity to go out and find others to see his brother's injury, and thus bring up Mo's own injury?
Watching Osmanthus leave the house with a wronged expression, Mrs. Mo's mood was also affected, and she gave Plum Blossom a signal with her eyes.
Plum Blossom was also worried about Osmanthus, after receiving Mo's gaze, she nodded to Guan Feng and immediately ran out to chase Osmanthus.
The plum blossom could be seen running out of the house, but the shadow of the osmanthus flower was already invisible.
When Plum Blossom ran to the gate, she just saw the shadow of Osmanthus running into the neighbor's house.
The big gate that Guihua ran into was not someone else's house, but a courtyard that had a good relationship with the Guihua family, especially with the Mo family.
The family's surname was originally Liu, but Mr. Liu passed away early on, leaving behind only Mrs. Liu and their son. A few years ago, Mrs. Liu found a daughter-in-law for her son, and it seemed like they were finally going to live a good life together. However, three years ago, a heavy rainstorm unexpectedly took the life of the Liu family's son.
About what happened that year, Guihua naturally didn't know, she only heard a few words from Meihua and herself.
It was said that the rainstorm that year was exceptionally fierce, lasting for over ten days. Coincidentally, it was during the time when the official grain was being delivered, and if it wasn't delivered on time, the entire village would be affected.
The people of Qinxier River Village can only take two roads to leave the village, either by crossing over the big Qing Mountain behind the village or by passing through the big river in front of the village.
The village gate of Xinghe Village that year was just by the river, and it didn't look like it does now, where you can also leave the village from the shore.
As the day of grain delivery draws near, people in the village are getting anxious. Some people gathered together and suggested finding strong-bodied individuals to escort the official grain from the village to the government office. The families of those who escorted the official grain could pay 20% less grain, which would be made up by those families that couldn't provide a person.
That year, Liu's wife's son was one of the best in the village, so he was naturally selected. Moreover, at that time, Liu's daughter-in-law was already eight months pregnant, and if they could save two tenths of grain, they would be able to prepare more clothes for the child later on.
