It's late at night and the moonlight shines into the house.

There was a small kerosene lamp lit on the small table in front of the window.

The kerosene lamp was not very bright.

He Jing had just finished writing her future business plan. She yawned and looked out the window. She didn't know what time it was, but she felt that the moonlight was very bright.

She stood up, stretched, yawned again, and then opened the door quietly.

The doors of the other rooms in the house were closed.

Quietly.

It was also pitch black.

He Jing is already very familiar with the environment at home and knows how to get around without a kerosene lamp.

She opened the door and looked outside the yard. The moonlight was like water.

There are insects chirping in my ears.

He Jing took a deep breath and looked up at the moon. It was half-circle.

There is still some time before the fifteenth day of the lunar month, but such a bright moonlight is really rare.

She stood under the eaves, the night wind blowing gently, and she couldn't help yawning again.

"It should be very late." He Jing muttered and was about to turn around and leave when she suddenly heard a rustling noise beside the earth wall and her brows immediately frowned.

Is he a thief?

He Jing immediately became alert and hid her figure, wanting to wait and see whether it was from next door or was about to come over.

Night, quiet.

Apart from the chirping of insects and the barking of dogs in the distance, there was no other sound.

After waiting for a while, He Jing didn't see anyone climbing over the wall. She frowned, thought for a moment, and then quietly went to the corner in front of the kitchen door.

There is also a small vegetable garden next to the kitchen, which was specially opened up by Shi Chunlan.

Because there is a shower room in the kitchen, all used water will flow out, so there is no need to water it in the future.

There is a two-meter-high earth wall next to the vegetable garden.

It wasn't so high originally, but the relationship between the two families became worse and worse.

The one-meter-high earthen wall was raised.

So much so that the earth wall now looks like it has two colors.

Moreover, on top of the earthen wall, there were a lot of tiles that were collected after being broken.

He Jing leaned against the wall and could hear the noise coming from next door much more clearly.

"Did you see everything clearly?" Zhou Cuihong asked.

"See clearly."

The voice sounded like Chen Guoan's.

He Jing was confused for a moment, and then heard the person on the other side say.

"Your wife is useless. I have to do everything for her." Zhou Cuihong snorted coldly, "No matter how much money you make tonight, you can't tell her a penny."

"You've been married for so many years, and you only have Dabao as your child. Your belly has been quiet for a long time. If you don't give birth to a second child." Zhou Cuihong snorted, "You can divorce her later, and we can find someone who is easy to give birth to."

Chen Guoan just listened without saying a word of rebuttal.

"Okay, let's sell these tonight." Zhou Cuihong weighed them in the dim candlelight. "Tomorrow, when I make the pickled eggs, you can tell our old customers that we have new goods."

"Tell them not to buy the sour beans from the top of the mountain." Zhou Cuihong warned.

Chen Guoan knew, "Mom, I know."

"Be careful on the road and don't wake up others."

The sound was getting farther and farther away, I guess it was going far away.

He Jing listened carefully for a while. It didn't seem like he went out from the main door. There should be a small door leading to the back?

There is a bamboo forest over there, and in it there are several earth pits, which are the toilets of these families.

There is a small path leading into the mountain behind the bamboo forest.

The route emerged very clearly in He Jing's mind.

Once you enter the mountain, there’s no way to guess where you’ll go.

"Do you want to go and take a look?" He Jing hesitated.

He Jing doesn't want to get involved in Zhou Cuihong's speculative activities.

Since she didn't want to care about it anymore, He Jing let it go, yawned, and wanted to go back to her room to rest.

But before I reached the gate, I saw Xu Zhaodi coming out.

When the two met, they were both scared.

"Jingjing, what are you doing out here?" Xu Zhaodi covered her chest and took a deep breath.

"To the toilet." He Jing explained, "Second sister-in-law, you too?"

"Yeah, I drank too much water at night." Xu Zhaodi nodded, glanced at Zhou Cuihong's house next door, curled her lips, and asked casually, "Jingjing, is there any movement next door?"

"Second sister-in-law, what are you saying?" He Jing didn't finish her words.

Xu Zhaodi did not hide it, "Zhou Cuihong must be engaging in speculation and profiteering."

"If we catch him, we can get a bonus." Xu Zhaodi knew that her family would not allow her to do such things, so she decided to report him.

If you succeed, you can get a 20-cent bonus.

I can buy half a pound of pork.

He Jing sighed, "No sound."

"At this hour, everyone is probably asleep, right?" He Jing shook her head in denial.

Xu Zhaodi had no doubts. She looked at the moonlight and was a little disappointed. "Next time, I'll take a look."

"Second sister-in-law, we will not interfere in Zhou Cuihong's family affairs." The back and forth, mutual revenge, is endless and exhausting.

Xu Zhaodi was not happy, "Are we just going to let their family bully us all the time?"

"My Miaomiao can't beat Chen Dabao, and her three brothers can't always stay by her side." Xu Zhaodi said angrily, "If we don't clean up the Chen family, Zhou Cuihong will not be afraid of death."

"If we can drag her into the streets for a parade, Zhou Cuihong will be humiliated and this person will behave himself."

He Jing thought about the conversation she had just heard.

Both Chen's father and son are unable to do anything to Zhou Cuihong. Can taking to the streets to protest help her?

"Jingjing, you just came back, so of course you don't understand her personality." Xu Zhaodi had said too much, and her mouth was a little dry. After swallowing her saliva, she continued, "You just came back, didn't you send her in to stay for a few days?"

"Those days were so quiet and peaceful." Xu Zhaodi couldn't help but grin when she thought about it. Then she remembered something and patted He Jing on the shoulder. "It's late. Go back to bed."

"I have to get up early tomorrow."

He Jing agreed and watched her go to the bathroom. Before turning back, she took a look at the roof of Zhou Cuihong's house.

A tick for a tick.

It's not impossible.

He Jing raised her eyebrows and turned back to the house.

The moon is half full in the sky and the moonlight is still bright.

Its daybreak.

The morning mist lingers over the mountain village.

The rising sun casts a light golden color.

Everything in front of me is hazy, like a fairyland.

When He Jing came out and saw this scene, she couldn't help but feel happy.

At this time, other people may not be up yet.

After washing up, He Jing went to light a fire and cook porridge. Then she mixed chicken feed to feed the chickens and ducks. She also let the little rabbits out and picked some vegetables from the vegetable garden to feed them.

It was still very early.

The other members of the He family got up.

The men washed and dressed quickly, and then went to fetch water.

Smoke rose from every household, roosters crowed and dogs barked, and the life began to get lively.

He Jing was a little concerned about what was going on in Zhou Cuihong's house next door.

Shi Chunlan noticed it and asked, "Is it the same as what the second brother's family thinks?"

"We shouldn't get involved in their family affairs. We should just take care of our own affairs." Last time, Shi Chunlan was really scared.

She doesn't want to experience something like this again.

Zhou Cuihong is the ghost thorn grass, and anyone who gets involved with her will be in trouble.

The best way is to stay away.
