For several days, Nanzhi went to Dongshan to pick chestnuts in the morning and fished in the river with his dog in the afternoon.

At first, it was just her taking the dog to touch the river, and slowly more women followed her into the river.

Although I don’t know if river mussels are delicious, I feel a little greedy when I see Nanzhi and the dog looking for them every day.

Sister Nanzhi, Sister Nanzhi, how do you eat this river mussel?

The person who spoke was Aunt Guihua's daughter Shen Miaomiao. She had been kept at home by Aunt Guihua since she was born. Now she was taken out just to pick up more chestnuts to take home. But when she saw Nanzhi, she was taken out. Followed enthusiastically.

Now seeing Nanzhi taking off her shoes and socks and going into the river, she ignored Aunt Guihua's dark face and stepped into the water.

Seeing the girl's happy appearance, Nanzhi sighed for a moment, thinking that she was a young girl half a month ago, and now she is a mother in a blink of an eye. She sighed and said: Take it back, pick off the dirty things, and put them away. Spicy stir-fry, there is a meat pillar inside, it can be stored when cooked and dried, and it will be delicious when added to soup later.”

After hearing that it could be stored, Shen Miaomiao smiled and narrowed her eyes, and praised sincerely: Sister Nanzhi, you are really amazing.

Aniang, Aniang, I caught a small fish.

As soon as Nanzhi raised his head after hearing the words, he saw the dog running over with his bare buttocks and two small hands holding a fish.

Watching the dog running and swaying, Nanzhi was afraid that he would fall. Just as he was about to go over, the dog jumped into his arms and he fell to sit in the river.

...

Gou'er didn't feel that he had done anything wrong at all. He just handed the fish to Nanzhi and said with a smile: Auntie, look at the fish.

Dog, get up quickly, my mother-in-law is going to spank your little butt soon. Aunt Liu asked with a smile.

Dogs are awesome.

Isn't that right? This doll is lucky. Look, he touches more things in a day than you do.

Several women joked with each other, and for a while bursts of laughter could be heard at the end of the village.

But everyone in the Li family frowned.

Ever since Old Man Li divorced Mrs. Wang, the atmosphere in the Li family has not been good. The day before yesterday, Old Man Li even split up the family.

Over the years, the family has saved a total of thirty-seven taels of silver. Mrs. Wang took twenty taels with her when she left, leaving only seventeen taels of silver and the family's five acres of land. When it came to dividing the family, Wu was the first to refuse. of.

After the family was separated, she and Li Tian no longer had time to be lazy, but Old Man Li did not give him a chance to talk. He asked Li Liang to invite Li Zheng and the clan leader to quickly separate the family.

Early this morning, Mrs. Liu discovered that her father-in-law was not in the right state. He kept having a fever and talking nonsense. When the village doctor came to see him, he only said that if the infection in his right leg could not be delayed, he would have to amputate his leg if he wanted to save his life.

Only then did the family sit together again, and even the most reluctant Wu shut her mouth this time.

In the end, all he wanted to do was save his life, and Old Man Li became the first and only person in Lihua Village who was missing a leg.

Dad, don't blame me. Li Liang knelt on the ground, guilt on his dark face.

It's a big deal that my father lost his leg even though his body, hair, and skin were all supported by him.

Looking at his son kneeling in front of him, Old Man Li's voice was very hoarse. He opened his mouth for a long time before saying three words: Get up.

The village doctor left. The cost of amputating the leg this time was thirty taels of silver.

Look, it's all fate. Old Man Li lay on the bed, looked out the window and smiled.

It's all fate.

The sun was about to set when Nanzhi took the dog ashore. The woman with a man at home had left half an hour ago, rushing home to cook.

Aunt Guihua greeted Shen Miaomiao before leaving, but she was coaxed to go home first by laughing and joking for a long time.

Now seeing Nanzhi about to leave, he hurriedly followed her: Sister Nanzhi, are you going home?

Go home, auntie, please go back quickly. Gou'er looked at Shen Miaomiao and said anxiously. This auntie always followed her, and she ignored him.

Shen Miaomiao did not notice any change in the dog's attitude towards her and just waved to Nanzhi: Then I'm leaving, Sister Nanzhi. Let's go fishing in the river together tomorrow.

Nanzhi subconsciously wanted to nod, but the dog pulled her clothes into the courtyard gate.

Gou'er, you are not good and rude today. Nanzhi looked at the dog with some reproach, she always felt that the dog was a little repelled by Shen Miaomiao.

Gou'er is wrong, grandma is not angry. Gou'er lowered his head as if he knew he was wrong. From time to time he would cautiously raise his head to look at Nanzhi. Such a pitiful look made Nanzhi feel a little helpless.

Mom, don't be angry anymore. That dog is a good boy. I won't let you do this when I see my aunt tomorrow.

The dog nodded, Okay.

Dinner was simple, I just cooked porridge and fried shredded potatoes.

The couple sat at the small table in the backyard, huffing and puffing, and then started to busy on their own after eating.

Ever since Nanzhi decided to save dried river mussels, the dog had one more task - to turn over the dried meat in the dustpan.

Gou'er has always taken the tasks assigned by his mother seriously. Every day when he comes home for dinner, he will use a small stool to turn over the clams.

Nanzhi was handling river mussels at the well. Maybe the dog was really a lucky star. Every time he went down to the river, the dog could always catch a few fish. Even the river mussels he found were bigger than those of the dolls playing with him. Some.

Over the past few days, the dustpan at home has been almost full.

The big river clam in the wooden basin suddenly trembled, and looked around with some doubts. There was nothing strange, and then continued to sleep uneasily.

After changing the water for the fish in the barrel and putting away the last bucket of clams, Nanzhi stretched his waist and took the dog back to the room.

It is already the beginning of the seventh lunar month, and there is still one month left before the autumn harvest. There is not even the slightest sign of rain in the sky.

Today Nanzhi also found that the water in the river at the end of the village was shallower again. He was afraid that if it didn't rain again, the water in the river would have to be dried up.

Except for the occasional chirping of insects and the rare breeze, there was no other sound at night.

The other families in Lihua Village slept very comfortably that night, but Nanzhi and Gouer did not sleep well.

The dog was young and although he was energetic during the day, he fell asleep after playing all day. After coaxing the dog to sleep, Nanzhi closed his eyes.

It was pitch black in the dream, and no matter how she ran, it was as if she was wrapped in that mass of ink, without a trace of light.

She called her grandma and called her dog, but there was no response.

She simply stopped shouting and just kept running forward. After running for who knows how long, she seemed to hit a wall. The strange wall was very soft and sucked her in.

On the other side of the wall is Lihua Village. The sun hangs slanting in the sky, dyeing the sky red.

There was smoke from every house in the village. Gou'er and she were sitting on a stone bench at the entrance of the village, not knowing what they were doing, until a group of men carrying hoes approached the entrance of the village. Gou'er excitedly shouted that daddy was back.

She seemed to be very happy, and ran towards the man in green with a smile.

Nanzhi looked through the wall and was stunned at the sight.

The dog calls that person Aniang, then who is he?

who is she?

Yes, she is Lin Nanzhi, a freshman student from A.

The scenery of Lihua Village outside the wall suddenly changed. There was no longer the smoke from the kitchen, no more Nazhi, no more the man in green, and only the dog was left standing in a panic at the entrance of the village crying.

Dog! Dog!

Nanzhi patted the wall desperately, but the dog on the other side seemed unable to hear, and just kept crying for Aniang.

The next moment, the ground began to tremble, and the sound of tiles and mud bricks falling to the ground was heard everywhere in the village.

In an instant, half of the house at the entrance of the village collapsed.

Seeing the dog's small figure falling to the ground, Nanzhi was so anxious that he hit his head against the wall before he suddenly woke up.

The beads of sweat on her forehead reminded her.

She is still in Lihua Village, and she is still the little widow Lin Nanzhi of Lihua Village.
