Chapter 71 Deserve it
When Yan Qiu heard this, he suddenly raised his head and looked back. Just at this moment, the old lady turned her head, and Yan Qiu finally saw her face clearly.
It's Li Cunxiang.
Li Cunxiang was very different from what he remembered back then, his figure was completely out of shape, his hair was all gray, and because of years of exposure to the wind and sun, his skin took on a dull khaki color, covered with wrinkles, deepIt is like a gully formed after the land cracked due to lack of water.
Although when Yan Qiu left that house, she had already turned into a woman in the market due to years of hard work, but she was far from being old and frightening now. She had changed too much.Didn't recognize her at all.
In just one year, what happened?
But even though we haven't seen her for so long, the moment Yan Qiu recognized her, his body still trembled uncontrollably.
Li Zhi on the side also realized something, squeezed his fingers tightly to bring him back to his senses, then patted the back of his hand lightly as if soothing.
Yan Qiu raised his eyes to look at him, and then he realized that Li Cunxiang was no longer the Li Cunxiang he used to be, nor was he the Yan Qiu he used to be.
He no longer needed to be afraid of her.
Li Cunxiang was stunned when he heard the name, and he didn't know what to think of, the aura around him instantly dropped, and he turned around and wanted to leave.
However, at this moment, the boss refused to let her go. He pulled her and said, "Old woman, what are you running for? Weren't you very good at torturing other people's children? Are you guilty now?"
"Don't talk nonsense, don't talk nonsense..." Li Cunxiang murmured, although he was retorting, but obviously lacked confidence, he raised his head and grabbed Yan Feng's arm, wanting to leave here.
However, the diners next to him were also excited when they saw this. Most of them are elderly people here. Qian'an Town is small, and they are basically acquaintances. There is no secret between each other.
"Nonsense? Why do you have the nerve to talk nonsense?"
"That's right, who here doesn't know about your deeds, Li Cunxiang?"
"I've never seen such a heartless woman like you, letting a child of how old to cook on a bench, not caring if the child is scalded by hot water, and not letting the child eat if the cooking is not delicious. I can't figure it out?Animals can't do this kind of thing? How did you do it?"
"Also, in the winter, let the children wash the whole family's clothes in cold water. If they can't finish washing, they pour a basin of cold water over their heads. They don't let the children enter the house, and they freeze outside. If your neighbor was not kind back then,Send the child to the hospital, the child might be gone long ago."
"Not only that, but later on, that kid also struggled and got into a key university by himself. As a result, your useless eldest son didn't even get into a university. You were mentally unbalanced. You just tore up his admission letter and locked him up at home for three days.If it wasn't for my parents who came to pick me up later, this life would have been ruined by you."
"Fortunately, the child is blessed. His parents are rich, and he can finally live a good life for a few days."
"It's because they have money that they are blackmailed! Back then, they held the child and his ID card and refused to let him go. They said they couldn't raise him for nothing all these years, and in the end they blackmailed a lot of money from their parents.It’s the money that lets people go.”
"It's really shameless, why? Didn't your parents help you raise your children?"
"That's considered raising? I haven't seen my own son, and I don't even come back to look at them. I know what kind of virtue they are."
"That's right. At that time, I still felt that God has no eyes. This kind of person can also make him lucky. I didn't know until later that God is watching!"
"Who says it's not! Li Cunxiang, you've only been rich for a few days? The money was gambled away by that prodigal son of yours. I heard that he borrowed usury and owed a lot of debt? The last time I was pressed for debt, my fingers couldn't bear it."It was chopped off."
"It deserves it!"
"It deserves it!" The diners couldn't help being filled with righteous indignation.
They told Li Cunxiang that she wanted to find a crack in the ground and wanted to go out, but the hotel owner walked over and directly blocked the door, preventing her from going out.
"I really don't understand? Are you two blind? Or do you just like trash? The boss is ugly and a rascal. You have been praising this baby for so many years, but what happened?At such an old age, setting up a stall and picking up bottles to pay off that trash's debt, but if you were kinder to your youngest son back then, it wouldn't be so miserable now, right?"
"Don't say that, people are happy, now I have to rush back to cook for my precious son after picking up the bottle."
"Does she dare not do it? That fat man weighs more than two hundred catties now. They are no match for others. I heard that they went back late last time. They didn't cook, and a tooth was knocked out. They were lying on the ground screaming.".”
"I heard that the old couple yelled all night and no one went to take a look."
"It means that everyone has long been tired of seeing it."
"It deserves it!"
"It deserves it!"
Rao Li Cunxiang was aggressive when he was young, but now that he is getting older, he has done bad things in the past, and coupled with this year's wastage and torture, his temper has also worn out.
These words were too harsh, and she really didn't dare to listen any more, but they were all things she had done, so she couldn't refute them at all.
So just want to leave quickly.
So she lost the momentum she had when she had a dispute just now, and stepped forward, begging the boss to let her out.
The boss put his arms around his chest and looked at her coldly, "Old woman, just now I told you to get out, but now you're in a hurry? How many times have I said that? We won't give you even if our empty wine bottles are broken."You, sneak in to get it next time, and be careful that I will directly break your arm."
Li Cunxiang no longer had the confidence he had when confronting him just now, and nodded indiscriminately, just wanting to leave here quickly.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I won't come here again, I don't want to, I really can't find it, they don't want to give it to me, I have to make money, those people chased me home, splashed paint on the wall, Xiaojing'sThe fingers were all chopped off. I picked it up and tried to connect it to him, but I couldn’t connect it. It was full of blood. He bled a lot and couldn’t be stopped. They said they would kill him if he couldn’t connect it.Our whole family, it’s okay to kill me, but Xiaojing is still young, he is still young.”
"Tsk." The boss clicked his tongue incomprehensibly, "You really..."
"Even if you later found out that the child was not your own son, you probably didn't know it before. How could you have no affection for him? When you tortured the child like this back then, so many people went to your house to persuade you, I didn't see you feeling distressed at all, can a human heart really be like this?"
Li Cunxiang seemed to be stopped by the question, he was at a loss for a moment, and avoided the topic.
It's just that he couldn't stand it anymore, and suddenly ran into the shop owner recklessly, as if to knock him away.
The shop owner didn't want to really have any conflict with her, so he cursed again, and the "Dian Pozi" got out of the way.
Li Cunxiang finally escaped.
A very small and old tricycle was parked at the door, and there were a pile of waste paper shells that were almost covered by snow and a few scattered empty bottles on the car.
Li Cunxiang tremblingly climbed onto the tricycle, regardless of the snow on the paper shell, just sat down on it, then raised his hand and pulled the scarf around his neck up, as if trying to cover his face.
Even after she had come out, she still felt that pairs of eyes in the hotel were still staring at her non-stop.
All kinds of harsh and unpleasant words came into her ears continuously.
"Go!" Li Cunxiang urged Yan Feng.
But because it was too cold and the car was broken, it couldn't start for a while.
In fact, she heard all the ugly things when she was young, but she didn't care at all at that time.
At that time, she was almost driven crazy by the pressure of life, and she really needed an outlet.
That outlet was naturally Yan Qiu.
Originally, it was good that Yan Qiu wasn't around, after all, out of sight and out of mind, but then her sister-in-law in the countryside died, and no one could babysit for them, so they had to bring Yan Qiu back.
But things inevitably came to light.
If it wasn't for him, how could she have been fired from the unit?
If it wasn't for him, how could she be reduced to setting up a stall?
Even if their husband and wife's original life was not rich, it had nothing to do with embarrassment, but it was all because of Yan Qiu's arrival that ruined everything.
In order to make a living, she had to leave early and return late, running around.
To this day, she still remembers the pitiful and gloating eyes of her ex-colleagues when she ran into her at the stall.
After her former colleague left, she sat in front of the booth and cried for a long time. How did she get down to this point?
It's all because of that catastrophe.
Yes, she regarded Yan Qiu as a catastrophe because his arrival brought so much misfortune to the family.
So shouldn't he make it up?
Those people who are full don't care about their own housework, but they want to take care of her!To put it lightly one by one, after all, it's not that they live so hard, after all, it's not that they need to raise two children.
Besides, her people don't understand at all, they don't understand anything!
She didn't believe in retribution at all, she only believed in herself.
She felt that Yan Qiu was a disaster star, he was the one who robbed the family of luck, so the solution she came up with was to do the opposite.
As long as Yan Qiu's life is miserable, the family will be better off.
So at first, she just forced him to cook and wash clothes, and scolded him, but then she found that she couldn't control herself more and more.
So she started to intensify.
After getting the money from the Fu family, she felt even more that she was right.
The catastrophe is gone, and the money left behind because of him is enough for the family of three to live comfortably in this life.
But before she was happy for a long time, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.
Yan Jing did not know when he became addicted to gambling. Not only did he lose all his money, he even lost his house and borrowed a large amount of usury.
It's not that she never begged him not to gamble anymore, but when she opened her mouth, she was punched and kicked.
Yan Jing was spoiled by her, even at this age, she still only knew how to ask for it.
But she couldn't really ignore him.
Seeing the moment his fingers were chopped off, Li Cunxiang felt that he was going crazy with him.
She knelt down and kowtowed desperately to beg those people, give her a little more time, it will come together, it will come together.
She finally got another month in exchange.
But she is old, has nothing, and can't do anything else. She can only set up a stall during the day and pick up waste at night.
The snow has been too heavy recently, and there is no way to get out of the stall, so they can only pick up waste products.
But most of the people in the town had been scolded by her before, and they all hated her, so when they saw her, they took back all the waste products in their homes.
Even just throwing non-recyclable garbage in the trash can.
She had no choice but to see the empty wine bottles at the feet of the guests when passing by the restaurant, and sneaked in to pick them up.
But they scolded them out like this.
So is this retribution?
So there is still payback?
Li Cunxiang's eyes were a little sore, probably because of the snow, so she raised her hand and rubbed her eyes.
Taking a glance from the corner of the eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure by the window of the hotel.
Do not know why?Always feel a little familiar.
Probably dazzled.
The boy didn't look very old, but his face was fully grown. He looked like a star. He was wearing a sports down jacket. She couldn't tell what brand it was, but the boy and the man opposite him looked very luxurious.Naturally, the clothes will not be cheap.
How could she feel such a person, Yan Qiu.
how can that be possible?The child always bowed his head, shoulders slumped, thin and small, cringing, like a dry branch.
They are far apart.
how could be?
Yan Feng finally started the car, and the tricycle got farther and farther away from the hotel.
But for some reason, Li Cunxiang looked up again.
This time she met the child's eyes.
The deer's eyes are exactly the same as in memory, round and watery, always looking pitiful.
It's just that now the lines of the boy's eyes are more dignified and sharp than ever before.
Li Cunxiang suddenly realized something and rushed forward, as if he wanted to grab something, but he couldn't control his body, kneeling directly on the snow-covered paper shell, and soon there was a heart-pounding pain between his legs.Painful.
That figure was getting further and further away from her, but a long-lost name became clearer and clearer in her heart.
That's... Yan Qiu?
