Chapter 154: Exploring the Way
Two days later.
On this day, Su Qing'an heard Miao Pozi telling Sha'er in the yard that she was going to the mountains to collect herbs and asked him to stay at home and look after the house.
Su Qing'an listened with her ears perked up. When she heard that Miao Pozi had gone out, she was very excited.
If Miao Pozi had not had any bad intentions, Su Qing'an would have been moved by what she said to Sha'er and her motherly love for Sha'er.
But thinking about Miao Pozi's surveillance of her these days, her vague questions, and her frequent knocks on her leg bones to judge her injuries...
Su Qing'an was not moved.
And the way she looked at Xiaobao, as if he was something superfluous. That gloomy and cold look, staring at Xiaobao's bowl, as if Xiaobao had eaten too much of her good things.
It made Su Qing'an feel like something stuck in her throat, and she didn't dare to stay any longer.
Miao Pozi saw that her legs didn't improve these days, and she began to doubt her medication. Not only did he knock on her leg bones every day to check her injuries, but he also went out to collect herbs every day. I don't know if he was anxious to cure her so that he could arrange for Sha'er to sleep with her.
The eyes of Miao Pozi and Sha'er staring at her made Su Qing'an feel cold to the bone, as if there was a snake coiled around her body, which made people shudder.
At this time, Su Qing'an heard her footsteps going away and quickly turned off the bed. Just took two steps to the door of the room, thought about it, turned back and picked up the walking stick on the bedside, and stuck it under his armpit. Left the house.
At the door of the room, Sha'er was sitting cross-legged on the ground, playing with something in his hands. When he saw her come out, he stood up suddenly: "Hehe, my wife, my wife..."
His saliva dripped down and flowed on his front, making it wet. There was a pocket cloth tied by Miao Pozi for him, but it seemed useless. It was soaked in just a few minutes. Miao Pozi was not there, and no one changed it for him.
Su Qing'an glanced at him and passed by him with the stick.
The fool was told not to let her out of the house, and when he saw this, he got anxious and chased after her.
"My wife, my wife..." He tried to pull her with his hand.
Su Qing'an dodged and dodged. The fool grabbed nothing and stared at his hand in a daze. Seeing that Su Qing'an was almost at the gate of the courtyard, he rushed over with a few big steps and pulled Su Qing'an.
Su Qing'an got anxious and immediately raised her walking stick and swung it at him.
Unexpectedly, the fool was very strong. He grabbed the walking stick in just a breath and snatched it away. He held it in his hand and looked at it blankly before throwing it hard on the ground. He grabbed Su Qing'an's wrist with his hand...
His strength was so strong that Su Qing'an felt that her wrist was about to be broken.
Su Qing'an cried out in pain and slapped him, even using her feet, but he didn't move at all. He was so anxious.
"My wife, my wife, I won't go out, I won't go out..."
"I won't go out, let me go!"
The two of them were pulling each other, and seeing that Sha'er's saliva was about to drip onto Su Qing'an's body, she felt a chill. She immediately called the system, took out the electric baton, and swung it hard...
Sha'er fell to the ground with a thud, and twitched twice.
Su Qing'an was extremely grateful that there was still this thing called the system. She once thought it was useless. At this moment, Su Qing'an stood on the ground and panted heavily. Seeing Sha'er lying on the ground silently, she was a little scared.
She squatted down to check his breath and found that he was still breathing, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
She picked up the crutches and rushed out of the yard immediately.
When she got outside the yard, she used the crutches again, one leg supported and the other leg supported.
She walked slowly on the village road. When the villagers saw her, they all cast curious eyes at her. Su Qing'an smiled and nodded at them.
Some of the villagers greeted her, but some did not. Some people just looked at her from a distance and then hid away. They whispered behind her back: "I wonder how long this can stay?"
"As long as her son is hidden, she will definitely stay. Which mother can bear to leave her own child."
"Poor thing, I wonder how sad the child's father will be if he knows."
"Do you think her family will look for her?"
"Why not? Haven't you seen her son, who is so good-looking and so smart? Which family doesn't want such a son or grandson?"
"Miao Pozi is really evil. Why did she bring back a woman with a family this time..."
"She's afraid that her silly son can't give birth."
"Evil..."
Su Qing'an couldn't hear the villagers' discussions behind her, and even if she did, she wouldn't care. She wouldn't stay here. She still had to go out to find her relatives.
Su Qing'an walked slowly along the foot of the mountain. Looking for the entrance to the cave that Xiaoshan and Xiaogu said was out of the mountain.
She hoped that the people in the village were kind and would not tell Miao Pozi about her whereabouts today.
But she did not dare to bet on people's hearts, so she pretended to come out for some fresh air, walking and resting, looking and stopping, as if she was really strolling in the garden, so that outsiders would think that she had really recuperated for a long time and came out for some fresh air.
The old village chief saw it from a distance and sighed.
In the end, it couldn't resist the conscience in his heart. He had seen too many young lives ruined by Miao Pozi over the years. It was enough. He turned a blind eye to her and was worthy of her dead old man.
The old village chief walked towards Su Qing'an: "Is the scenery in this mountain not bad?"
Su Qing'an was startled, turned around and saw that it was him, and smiled: "Yes, it's pretty good. There is chaos outside, but here the mountains and rivers are beautiful, like a paradise."
The old village chief was very comforted. Finally, he was not the only one who thought this was a paradise.
Sighing: "It's a pity that many people don't know how to cherish it. They all think that the outside is full of pink and willows, the houses are beautiful, the city walls are thick, and the food in the pubs and restaurants is more delicious. Many young men in our village don't want to come back as soon as they go out. I am the same, He left behind his wife, children, old parents, and never came back. He doesn’t know whether he is alive or dead..."
Seeing that he was in a low mood, Su Qingyu comforted him: "I have been traveling for a few months and have seen many people leaving their homes and many forces arresting young men. Maybe Xiaoshan Xiaogu's father was just arrested, not him. Don’t want to come back?”
The old village chief knew her good intentions and didn't say anything. He just shook his head.
"Let me show you around. You haven't had a good look at our village yet. Let me tell you, our village is really a good place to hide from the world. There is food in the mountains, streams in the valleys, and the soil is fertile. We don’t lack anything except salt.”
Seeing that Su Qingyu was really interested, she smiled knowingly.
Then he said: "Look there... If you look at it this way, can't you see that there is a hole there? Except for us villagers, outsiders can't find it. We only go out from there when we are short of salt." Buy some salt and some sweets for the children who have never been out of the valley. You see, we can climb out of the mountain in just one day. The entrance to the cave is also well covered, so outsiders cannot find it even if they want to come in..."
Su Qingnao stared at the direction of the old village chief's finger with long eyes, feeling as if grass had been planted in her heart, and she was in a state of confusion.
