There seemed to be a raging flame burning in her belly, scorching her internal organs. It was as if someone was vigorously stirring the stomach with a sharp blade. Death, it turns out, is not a relief, but a more painful torture.
Gu Ye endured the unbearable hunger in his stomach and slowly opened his eyes. Into the eye is a giant tree with its claws and claws in the night like a monster, and the stars are shining through the gaps of the leaves.
Before she could think about why she was here, a wolf howl rang in her ears. Turning his head to look, a pair of blue eyes flashed fiercely in the night.
veterinary medicine powder! When this term flashed in her mind instantly, a transparent bottle appeared in Gu Ye's hand. She sprinkled the powder on her body, and the approaching wolves stopped, turning their heads to hide in the forest under the leadership of the alpha wolf.
The familiar voice of "Sister Sister" made this body instinctively give birth to a hint of joy. It's brother! Brother with this body. In just a moment, she judged the identity of the person.
"Wangwangwangwang" A thin, large yellow dog stopped not far in front of her, barking at her, not daring to approach.
"I found it! I found it! Gu Ming, your sister is here!" The boy who appeared in Gu Ye's sight holding a torch was Li Hao, the youngest grandson of the village chief's family. He had a good relationship with the original owner's brother on weekdays.
"Sister", a shabby teenager, stumbled over and hugged her thin body in his arms. A hot teardrop fell on Gu Ye's neck, and the always strong little boy cried like a helpless child.
After crying for a while, Gu Ming checked her sister's body up and down, and found that she was safe, so she was completely relieved: "It's all my brother's fault, I shouldn't leave your side. Who would have thought that the poisonous woman's heart was so cruel, Throwing you alive on the mountain, and quibbling that you are dead."
"Ming'er, what are you talking about? What kind of poisonous woman? That's your mother! You are rebellious, and you are going to be struck by lightning!" Gu Qiao, the scumbag of the two, frowned and cursed.
"Since she dares to do it, why don't I dare to say it? She is not our mother! Who is the mother who can cruelly throw her daughter up the mountain to feed the wolves? God wants to chop her up, and chop her first, which is my turn? ?" Gu Ming was completely disappointed with his father.
The mother is the stepmother, and the father is the real father! When Liu Shi treated their brothers and sisters harshly, he pretended to be deaf and dumb. Now he just scolded Liu Shi as a "poisonous woman", but he scolded him with raised eyebrows. Is there a place for him and his sister in this house
"Clap!" A heavy slap slapped his face, Gu Ming suddenly felt a stench melt in his mouth, his ears buzzed, and after a while of dizziness, he fell down beside his sister.
"Gu Qiao, the child is wrong. Teach it slowly. What are you doing with such a heavy hand? Don't beat the child for good or bad."
"Patriarch, how can a junior insult an elder? If this kid doesn't beat him, if he doesn't teach him a lesson, he won't even look at me as a father!" Gu Qiao glared at his son angrily. Glancing at night.
"Father!" Gu Ming covered the quickly swollen left cheek, with tears in his eyes, "You can only blame us, don't you, can't you see how she treated me and my sister?"
Gu Ming pointed at a woman with high cheekbones and thin lips and a mean face, gritted her teeth and said: "When my mother was alive, she raised her little sister to be plump, lively and cute. But now? Why is my little sister like this? Like? That was starved alive!"
The Gu clan who came to help find someone, looked at Gu Ye'er, who was thin and skeleton with only a layer of skin wrapped around the bones, and couldn't bear to look away.
"Liu's family didn't let her sister eat at the table, and she didn't leave food for her. She was so hungry that she had to eat wild vegetables. She didn't dare to take them home and cook them, so she could only eat them raw. I began to not recognize wild vegetables, often ingested poisonous wild vegetables by mistake, and vomited and had diarrhea.”
"Look at my sister, is there a good spot? If you don't eat, you don't have the energy to do activities. If you do things a little slower, you will be beaten. Not to mention that Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang beat her and kicked her with sticks and stones. Smash her father, my sister is also your daughter, and your blood is flowing on her body, so you have the heart to watch her starve to death and be beaten to death?"
Gu Ye's sleeves were pulled up, with bruises and wounds on it, as if to accuse the master of the harshness he received.
"Stinky boy, don't talk nonsense! Who saw me beating the child? You unfamiliar bastard, your mouth is full of truth! Folks, think about it, she cooks her own meals every day, and we work. After I came back, I thought she had eaten it! Why didn't she tell me if she didn't eat? How would I know if she didn't tell me? As for the injury on her body, she was naughty and hit it somewhere, and it has nothing to do with me!" Liu Shi's mouth is not a decoration, it can turn the dead into the living.
Gu Ming could not wait to tear up the Liu family who had turned black and white: "What about today? My little sister was clearly awake in the evening, and she even talked to me, why did you throw her away? There are so many beasts in this mountain. , you throw her in the deep mountains, don't you intend to leave a way for your sister to live!"
"When I got home, this dead girl didn't move, she couldn't wake up no matter what she called, I thought she was dying! It's been a tough life, who hasn't had a child die? The house will be given to your brother in the future. The three married a daughter-in-law, how unlucky she is to die in it!" Liu Shi didn't feel at all that he was doing something wrong.
Gu Ming snorted coldly: "Don't think I don't know what you're up to! I heard everything you said to Da Zhuang that day. You said that your sister is a loser, and raising it is a waste of food. If you die, you can save money. For the next dowry, today, for a meager dowry, you can throw your sister into the mountains, and tomorrow you will be afraid that I will be killed by dividing the family property with the big and the young! Dad, are you still standing by? "
"What nonsense are you talking about? Your mother is not such a person. Don't say it, it's all a misunderstanding! Now that someone has been found, go home quickly." Gu Qiao waved her hand impatiently.
He still has some feelings for the eldest son, but in the pillow wind of Liu's years, there is not much left in the so-called father-son family. Gu Ming's words, he didn't care at all, but was annoyed by his scaremongering, which made himself humiliated in front of the patriarch and the people.
"No, if she just went back like this, she would find a chance to throw her sister away. Dad, in front of the patriarch's grandfather and the uncle in the clan, make it clear and let the Liu family swear that he will never again. Let my sister do the heavy work, and I won't let my sister eat!"
Gu Ming's small body is very straight, and the corners of his mouth are stubborn. For the sake of his sister, he sacrificed his life. The big deal was that he took his sister to live in a cave, and he worked to feed her.
The patriarch did not know anything about the Gu Qiao family. However, it is difficult for an honest official to cut off housework, and he turned a blind eye when he didn't make trouble in front of him. Today, he almost caused a fatal accident, and he, the patriarch, had to stand up and say something fair:
"Liu Shi, you have indeed done this! Well, we are all a family, there is no overnight feud, just talk about it, don't make any more troubles! Seventh, the two of you will give it to your child today. An accurate word, An An child's heart." Gu Qiao, ranked seventh in the clan.
Liu's face was uncooperative, and he muttered, "What are you saying? It seems that I really abused them. I don't recognize this."
"Lao Qijia, don't think that those little things behind your back can hide from everyone's eyes. What are you thinking, who doesn't know? Isn't it because of the Miao family?" Miao family, a mother who passed away with Gu Ming's two brothers and sisters The good sister-in-law looked at Liu Shi with a sneer, her eyes were like knives, as if she was about to strip away the last layer of Liu Shi's fig leaf.
Liu's face changed greatly, and he stopped the sister-in-law of the clan, and his sharp and abrupt voice startled a few night birds: "Okay! The children are ignorant, and I, an elder, can still have the same knowledge as them? You should also make trouble. Enough, go back with your father and mother! I am a stepmother, your father is a real father, how can you still watch others kill you?"
She said this quite well, and seemed to be soft-spoken to the two children. But inside and out, she hinted her grievances to the clansmen.
Gu Ming knew very well that he was still young now, and a complete break with the family would not benefit him or his sister. He came to his sister, touched her little face, smiled and comforted: "Sister, you are frightened! Don't be afraid, there are patriarchs and so many uncles to testify, no one will want to throw you away in the future. My brother will protect you. yours."
Gu Ye has been watching the "farce" in front of him coldly with the attitude of a bystander. But the young man in front of her who gave her wholeheartedly made her indifferent heart a little warm. In her previous life, she grew up in an orphanage, and family love was an extravagant hope for her. In this life, her dream was finally fulfilled, and there was a brother who loved her unreservedly. Maybe rebirth is not a bad thing for her!
Gu Ming carried his sister up on his back. He was also thin and panting before he took two steps. On a downhill road, his feet softened and he almost fell to the ground. Uncle Jiu, who lived next to them, couldn't stand it anymore, so he took Gu Ye and carried him down the mountain.
Gu Ye was placed on a kang covered with a broken reed mat, and he was about to fall asleep. After the clan and the villagers left, the Liu family also went back to the house angrily. Gu Ming covered her with a patched quilt, and came over mysteriously, saying:
"Sister, are you hungry? My brother was lucky today and caught a fish in the ditch. During the day, I secretly cooked soup while no one was at home. I'll go and warm it up, and you can drink it before you sleep."
When Gu Ming walked out of the room, Gu Ye looked down at the dry hands like chicken feet. The original owner is eleven years old, but his stature is not as good as that of a seven or eight-year-old child, with a matchstick-like body and skinny. Under the rough skin, the thin blood vessels look abrupt
