Good luck every time

Li Ruyi ran out of the village head's house without stopping, and was about to run back. Halfway through, she saw a familiar figure.

Li Er just caught a fish and was feeling very proud of himself. He looked up and came face to face with Li Ruyi.

The next moment, Li Er's face changed, he threw the fish away, turned around and ran away.

Li Ruyi ran over quickly, picked up the fish that Li Er had thrown down from the ground, and shouted at Li Er's back.

"Hey! Li Twenty, you dropped the fish!"

Li Er had no time to care about the fish. The person he was most afraid of seeing was Li Ruyi.

It's not just because of the beatings.

I was also afraid that she would tell others about stealing the green wheat ears.

All the family members who knew about this in the past few days are in danger, for fear of being discovered by Patriarch Li!

"No more, no more! No more!"

He ran and recited, and soon disappeared behind the wall of someone else's house.

Li Ruyi gave away half a rabbit and picked up a fish, and she felt even better!

She brushed the dirt off the fish. The fish was not very big, just the size of a palm, but it was still meat!

And there is fish bladder!

She was in high spirits, jumping and running for a while, and then she saw her third aunt again.

Li Ruyi quickly hid the fish behind her back.

My third aunt is a good person, but her husband is quite stingy. The relationship between the two families is only based on emotional connection, not much interest.

Li Ruyi wants to continue maintaining this simple emotional relationship.

She waited, wanting to wait until Third Aunt walked away before saying anything, but she saw Third Aunt's aggrieved back.

She felt a little soft-hearted again, thinking of the help Third Aunt had given her over the years, and also of the scene when Third Aunt had pulled her out of the crowd when Li Zhuzi wanted to sell her a few days ago.

Li Ruyi sighed, fortunately this fish was picked up for free!

She ran a few steps and came to the third aunt.

"Third Aunt!"

The third aunt heard Li Ruyi's voice and turned her head.

"Hope...it goes as you wish!"

No one could feel Li Ruyi's changes more intuitively than her.

The yard next door, which was originally bustling, suddenly became quiet.

There will no longer be the sound of Li Zhuzi and Li Ruyi fighting, no more sound of Sun calling her, no more sound of Li getting up early to cook and chop wood...

She couldn't explain how she felt. All she could see in her life was a small place like this. She worked from sunrise to sunset, chatted with relatives and neighbors, and talked about weddings.

The family next door also occupies a large space in her life.

"Where have you been, Third Aunt? It happens that I have a fish here for you to stew for the child."

Li Ruyi's skill in delivering things was perfect, and he immediately thrust the fish towards the third aunt.

When the third aunt looked at the small fish, tears instantly fell from her eyes.

Li Ruyi knew that this fish was a gift for her third aunt!

But the third aunt thought that Li Ruyi was worried about his younger brother and was using this method to support Li Zhuzi.

She thought of many things in an instant.

There was a quarrel between a sister and brother, and the brother was so cruel that he wanted to sell his sister, but in the end the sister forgave her brother and tried her best to support him, etc.

She felt sorry for Li Ruyi in an instant. She thought that if Li Ruyi knew that Li Zhuzi was missing, she would be so anxious!

Li Ruyi was really surprised to see her crying.

However, the third aunt took the fish and stuffed it back into Li Ruyi's hands.

"Ruyi, I can't take your fish. Your brother...your brother..."

When Li Ruyi heard people mention Li Zhuzi, the smile on her face faded a little. When San Gu was wiping her tears, she secretly looked at her, wondering if she was sad because Li Zhuzi was missing, or because Li Zhuzi had actually come back secretly.

Soon, Li Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ruyi, Third Aunt is sorry for you, your brother is missing!"

Li Ruyi was stunned for a moment.

"Gone? The pillar is gone? When did it disappear?"

She felt relieved, as it seemed that Li Zhuzi had indeed been sold, and San Gu was the first person to discover that he was missing.

The third aunt started to cry. She felt particularly aggrieved by everything that had happened in the past two days.

"I don't know when he died. When I went to call him for dinner yesterday morning, no one was there. He didn't come back last night either."

"Until now, I haven't seen him. I whined... I went to find my sixth uncle, but he told me not to meddle in other people's business! I whined..."

After hearing about Patriarch Li's attitude, Li Ruyi felt even more relaxed.

Just as she thought, Patriarch Li didn't care about Li Zhuzi's life or death.

Of course, she didn't know that Li Er's move was a good one.

The loss of that large amount of grain occupied most of Patriarch Li's mind, so that he was too lazy to even pretend and just acted as if he was fooling a fool.

Li Ruyi was calm inside, but an extremely nervous look suddenly appeared on her face.

"What? You didn't come back last night? Zhuzi is not the kind of person who runs around. He must come back to sleep at night!"

Li Ruyi's eyes turned and he immediately thought of something.

"Third Aunt, will this matter...will it be related to..."

She carefully looked at Third Aunt's face, as if she had thought of something that she dared not say.

The third aunt didn't understand at first, but when she saw Li Ruyi's panicked eyes, she suddenly realized.

"You mean Uncle Six doesn't care because he...he..."

Both of them looked so scared that they were trembling.

Everyone just talks about killing people.

No matter who has experienced a loved one being alive and kicking one moment and suddenly disappearing the next, there is no one who would not be afraid.

The two of them were standing there in the middle of summer, and they seemed to be shivering, and Third Aunt's voice was trembling.

"No, no, that's impossible! It's just two acres of land..."

She forced an ugly smile, trying to comfort Li Ruyi, but ended up scaring Li Ruyi instead.

"Third Aunt, I don't know either!"

She looked at a loss and asked her third aunt carefully.

"If the pillar is really gone, what should we do?"

The third aunt stretched out her cold hand and touched Li Ruyi's head.

"It's okay, it's okay. Shuanzi hasn't come back yet. Maybe the two kids went out to play together! Don't scare yourself! Don't scare yourself. I've looked around. Don't go looking for him yet. I'm worried if you go out."

"Um... I'll ask your third uncle to listen. If Shuanzi comes back, we'll go ask him."

Then he pushed Li Ruyi home.

"Go back! Go back!"

Li Ruyi stuffed the unlucky fish that was caught by Li Ershi and thrown on the ground, covered in dirt, and then pushed back and forth between Li Ruyi and San Gu, to San Gu.

"Third Aunt, take the fish back! I will go back if you take the fish."

The third aunt didn't want to take it and pushed it back.

"Your brother hasn't come back yet. Even if you give me the fish, I can't cook it for him. It will go bad in two days. You can take it back and eat it. You can take it back!"

Li Ruyi then realized what her third aunt had misunderstood, so she simply confirmed the misunderstanding. Li Zhuzi would not come back anyway!

She pushed the fish over again with a sad look on her face.

"Third Aunt, maybe Zhuzi will come back as soon as you go back!"

"He has a bad heart, is lazy and greedy, can't endure hardship and is picky. He refuses to eat anything all day long. Last time I saw him, he had lost weight. As his sister, I have no ability. I can't sell myself to support him, so I can only give him these things!"

After hearing this, Third Aunt felt so sad that her hands holding the unfortunate fish were shaking slightly.

"Ruyi, Third Aunt knows that you are a good girl. Don't worry, Zhuzi will come back!"
