Chapter 5: Go Up The Mountain
Yunqin's house is very big, and many children like to come to Yunfei to play.
He behaved foolishly in front of children, and he never fought back when he was bullied. He fry peanuts at home, and he would bring them to the children to eat together.
The boys thought Yunfei was stupid.
The girls think that Yun Fei is very good, he speaks less, and has a good personality. Moreover, although he is "stupid", he cleans up the place very cleanly. In summer, he smells of soap horns, unlike other boys who smell like sweat.
At noon, the children came to the Yun's yard to play games of smashing sandbags and jumping grids.
The women from the neighbors also brought insoles and needles, and sat in their yard, watching the children play games and chatting by hand.
Four women, chatting one after another.
Li Suhua next door asked Yunqin, "Qin'er, I heard that you bought a daughter-in-law for Feifei yesterday? Are you obedient?"
A bamboo basket is placed on Yunqin's legs, and the needles and threads are intertwined inside, making it a little messy.
While arranging her needles, she replied, "It's okay. Probably because I'm afraid of being beaten, I'm very obedient, and I can help with the dishes. Well... it's just a little ugly. But it doesn't matter, as long as I can have children."
Li Suhua said "Yo": "It's a shame that you look ugly, but if you want to look good, you may not know how to make a fuss. The daughter-in-law of Zhang Erwa's family, you know that? Hey, she looks weird, but it didn't take two days. , making a fuss about killing Zhang Erwa's family and going to the police, that dead girl actually wants to give the rat medicine and die with Zhang Erwa! Guess what?"
Several other women widened their eyes: "Killed to death?"
"Anyway, it was bought with money, so how could he possibly be killed?" Li Suhua took a breath and said, "Zhang Feng is so cruel, he chopped off both legs and feet of his daughter-in-law. A girl of Shui Ling has become crazy... Crawling around in the pigsty, she has gone crazy. What a sin."
"Hey, according to me, you can't blame Feng'er for this, right? If that girl didn't want to poison people, Feng'er would have done such an immoral thing? According to me, this girl is cruel and can't blame anyone! I didn't give it to her. Pulling it to the rooftop and burning it to death is kind. But then again, isn't our Qin'er also a daughter-in-law from the city? Look how kind we Qin'er are and how happy we are to stay here?"
The woman said, stretched out her hand, and patted Yunqin on the shoulder.
Yunqin lowered her head and said nothing, a slight smile hung on the corner of her mouth, but her stomach was rumbling and she wanted to vomit.
She roared at the window: "Xiao Qin, bring me a bunch of red thread and come out."
After a while, the peasant women sitting in the courtyard chatting, saw a thin, hooded girl walking out holding a bunch of red thread.
She tremblingly handed the red thread to Yunqin, her hands trembling visibly.
She raised her eyes to meet Li Suhua's eyes, like a frightened bunny, hurriedly lowered her head, and quickly entered the room.
When she entered the room, Li Suhua said to everyone, "Look at how well Qin'er has taught her daughter-in-law? It's only the first day of her life, so she can do whatever she wants. This morning, Qiner and Feifei went out to work, This girl went into the kitchen alone to wash the dishes, came out of the kitchen, and went back to the room by herself, she is quite honest."
Yunqin laughed crisply: "Although we Feifei are stupid, we are decent-looking. She is convinced that she can marry our family Feifei."
"Yes, yes, don't tell me, your family is really decent. It looks better than that... Xu Xian in "The Legend of the New White Snake"."
"Yeah, your family looks like you, it's just a pity..."
Yunqin suddenly remembered something and asked Li Suhua: "Sister-in-law, the village chief is your nephew, you see, can you go and tell the village chief, let my family Feifei also study a book? Our family Feifei, follow me since childhood. I have a daughter-in-law at work, and I have never enjoyed going to school. I want him to experience the taste of reading too."
"This..." Li Suhua looked embarrassed and said, "It's all a mother, of course I know you're doing it for your son's good. But it's not like this, and it's impossible to leave the village and go to school, what's the point?"
Yunqin took Li Suhua's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, you don't know, we must sit at the door every day, watching other people's children come home with schoolbags, and we are so envious. Besides, it's not that his father never read it. Shu, isn't it free to go to school now? We are all male villagers, why can't we study a book? Even if he only learns a few numbers, my mother's face is bright."
Li Suhua looked embarrassed.
Su Qin heard the conversation outside through the window and let out a sigh of relief.
Although Yunqin and Feifei were not at home in the morning, the neighbors were watching her. If she was discharged from the hospital in the morning, Li Suhua would definitely suggest Yunqin to discount her legs.
In her last life, she heard these examples of broken legs, so she didn't dare to run. Later, when I heard that Zhang Xing was going to sell her to the old man, he was desperate.
The escape was unsuccessful, not only was he captured, but Yun Fei was also killed.
At the head of the village there is a roof for sacrifices. Before the reform and opening up, the village was feudal and superstitious, and every year a girl was burned to death to sacrifice to the sky.
After the reform and opening up, this phenomenon was stopped, and the villagers used it to burn people who violated the village rules.
In the village, the villagers must obey the rules and unite. Anyone who dares to let go of someone else's daughter-in-law will be burned to death. As for Yun Fei, he violated this taboo in his last life and let Su Qin go, only to end up being burned to death.
Yun Fei knew his identity. Like his mother, he hated the people in the village, longed for the outside world, and wanted to know what his biological father looked like.
night.
Yunqin caught an old hen and went to Li Suhua's house.
Old hens that can lay eggs are worth the money. Li Suhua was soft-handed, and she agreed to help Yunfei go to school.
Su Qin found a thumb-length pencil and a piece of grass paper at home.
She was lying on the bed, drawing a map with a little bit of outdoor light and the memory of her previous life.
Zhangjiagou is surrounded by mountains, and there is only one way out. However, there is a naturally formed cave behind a rock wall on the southeast side of Mount Houshan.
Below the cave is water, which flows along the small waterfall into the big river in Tongluo Township.
In the previous life, Yun Fei found the cave. Under the pursuit of the villagers, the two of them made a desperate attempt, hugged a dead tree, rushed down the waterfall, and floated down the river to Tongluo Township.
But the road was too dangerous. She and Yun Fei were almost drowned in the previous life, and it was all luck that they survived. She wasn't sure if she still had such luck in this life, so she didn't dare to take that risk, let alone risk the lives of Yun Fei and Yun Qin.
She drew this map just in case. She would not consider this escape plan unless it was a last resort.
The best way now is to find a way to get Yun Fei to go to school and contact Professor Li.
Professor Li was a professor of "Information Countermeasure Technology" in his previous life. This major is rare in China, and it is specially opened by NTU for the military field.
NTU is located in Jinyang City, Dongchuan Province, and Jinyang is a Chinese science and technology city with a developed military industry.
Professor Li not only teaches at NTU, but also provides network security protection for Jinyang Jiu Institute.
Jinyang No. 9 Institute is the China Academy of Engineering Physics, a high-secret unit of the state and the only nuclear weapons research and production unit in China.
Professor Li, who is a network security protection, is naturally proficient in cryptography. After Su Qin married him, the first Morse code he taught Su Qin was:
"...-..---...-.-."
It translates to "I love you".
Su Qin didn't learn many passwords from Professor Li, but she had no problem sending a simple distress message.
She believed that if a girl asked him for help from the deep mountains, even if he had no sympathy, he would come to the deep mountains to find her out of curiosity.
The herbs on Su Qin's face dried quickly and needed to be washed and reapplied.
Yun Fei picked up the herbs and mashed them, carried them into the bedroom, and sat down on the edge of the bed. Su Qin put down his pen and looked up at the clean-looking boy in front of him.
He dipped a little herb in the bowl with his fingers and said to her, "Take off the face towel."
Su Qin took off the face towel, took the towel he brought in, and wiped his face clean.
The urticaria on her face has disappeared, only red stars remain on her skin, and the bruises on her face have disappeared, returning to her previous slap and oval face.
Although there are still some scars on the face, it does not affect the beauty of the whole face.
Her eyes are gentle and calm, with beautiful willow-leaf eyebrows, her eyes are stubborn and clear, like a drop of dew covered by the first ray of sunshine in the morning, full of aura.
The girl's facial features are beautiful, especially the pair of willow-leaf eyebrows, which are thin and delicate.
It was the first time that Yun Fei saw such a beautiful girl.
When he put medicine on her, the girl brought her face closer, her long eyelashes fanned up and down like a small fan, and the girl's warm breath splashed on his throat, making his heart beat faster.
The fifteen-year-old boy, who had never had close contact with a girl of the same age, suddenly blushed.
Su Qin was thinking about things and didn't notice the boy's change.
In her heart, Feifei was her relatives, and she didn't feel anything wrong at all.
The boy's finger pads pressed lightly on her cheek, and as soon as she frowned, he immediately paused and began to blame himself... He hit hard.
"Can I call you Feifei?" Su Qin suddenly raised his eyes and asked him.
Yun Fei's eyes were slightly stunned, and he nodded later.
His herb-dipped fingertips brushed her cheekbones.
"You can be called Sister Su Su in the future." Su Qin frowned, and the herbs fell off due to the rich expression on his face.
Yun Fei frowned, suddenly got up angrily, put the enamel bowl with the herbs in his hand on the cabinet, turned around and went out.
Su Qin was stunned, wondering why the young man lost his temper. She lowered her eyes and saw the herbs falling on the sheets, guessing-
Is he angry that he put the herbs on the sheets?
Yun Fei was a little angry.
He was angry with the girl who was shorter and smaller than him, and asked him to be called sister.
Humph. He doesn't want it.
At seven o'clock in the evening, usually at this time, the villagers have begun to close their households to rest. But outside suddenly began to beat gongs and drums, and the torches illuminated the outside as if it were daylight.
Yunqin put on her clothes and pulled her slippers to go out to inquire about the situation.
She raised her voice and asked her neighbor Li Suhua: "Sister-in-law, is this beating gongs and drums? What's the situation?"
The yard was pitch-dark, and the other person could not be seen. Li Suhua also said in a loud voice, "I heard from my family, it seems that the village chief Li came to the village with a few teachers."
Hearing the conversation outside, Su Qin immediately bounced off the bed and sat up.
As soon as Yunqin returned to the house, before the door bolt was plugged in, someone knocked on the door "bang bang bang".
She opened the door, and a group of men with torches stood outside.
The man in the lead had sharp eyebrows, panting and said, "Qin'er, hurry up and call your daughter-in-law out. We have some teachers from our village who will stay in the village for a few days. The village chief said, Take all the daughters-in-law who have come to the city recently to hide in the temple of the earth on the mountain."
Yunqin stood at the door, blocking the door and saying, "My daughter-in-law is quite obedient, so you don't need to go to the Temple of the Earth, right?"
"No, you know the rules in the village, the new daughter-in-law must go!"
Wrapped in a headscarf, Su Qin walked out, saw Zhang Erwa, and subconsciously hid behind Yunqin.
She grabbed Yunqin's shoulder, lowered her head, her voice trembled badly: "Mom..."
In front of Zhang Erwa, Yunqin held Su Qin's hand and comforted in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, go in peace, come back and make something delicious for you." Then she looked up at Zhang Erwa and said, "Two Baby, don't beat my daughter-in-law, our family is not stupid, but I'm not stupid."
Zhang Erwa made a "cut" in her mouth, glanced at Su Qin and said, "Come with me quickly!"
