"Mom, wait for me..."

"You're walking too fast!"

A little girl, probably only six or seven years old, was carrying a small backpack on her body, mumbling, with a look of dissatisfaction in her eyes.

Not far in front of the girl, there was a woman who looked to be about forty years old. She was also carrying a backpack behind her. However, the size of the backpack was many times larger than the one the little girl was carrying.

Looking at the coquettish little girl, the woman was not angry. Instead, her face was full of smiles and her eyes showed kindness.

"Xiao Xiu'er, your eldest brother will be back when the results are released. If we don't go back soon, you won't know if your eldest brother has become a master when he comes back!"

The woman said with a smile.

When the woman talked about the little girl's eldest brother, her son, there was a look of pride in her eyes.

"Big brother will definitely become a master!"

The little girl also said loudly at this time.

"Well, yes, he will become a master!" the woman also said.

"When the eldest brother becomes a master, this mulberry tree will belong to our family. I can eat as many mulberries as I want!" the little girl continued.

Looking at the little girl's angry look, it seems that she has a deep obsession with things like mulberries!

The woman shook her head and looked at the little girl who had followed her. She smiled and shook her head without saying anything more.

The little girl didn't know, but the woman knew very well that once she really became a master, she wouldn't eat mulberries, instead of all kinds of high-end fruits, including fruits that can prolong life!

"Then I have to become a master..."

The woman said in her heart.

Then, the woman took the little girl and walked toward a mulberry forest not far ahead.

Just entering the mulberry forest, looking at the dark red mulberries on the mulberry trees, not to mention the little girl, even the woman swallowed her saliva when she saw it.

The woman walked towards the other side of the mulberry forest with the reluctant little girl.

Turning over, I saw a few sparse mulberry trees. Compared with the mulberry forest in front, these mulberry trees were much different in terms of size and fruits.

The mulberries produced on it are also dark red, but they are only the size of a little finger.

On each of these dwarf mulberry trees, there is a sign.

The difference between the front and back of the mulberry trees is very big, but there is nothing that can be done about it. Even though the mulberry trees here are short, there is only one mulberry tree with a "Jingsheng" sign on it, which belongs to the woman's family.

This was when the patriarch saw that Jing Sheng, the woman's son, had a chance to become a master, so he divided one tree, so that he could satisfy his craving every season.

"If Sheng'er cannot become the master today, I'm afraid even this mulberry tree will be taken back!"

The woman stood there with a look of helplessness in her eyes.

There is no way, since the man died, the family has not contributed much to the family, and the family's fields and some supplies have been taken back.

Otherwise, when her son might become a master, the woman would not use mulberries to entertain the upcoming guests.

But once he becomes the master, not to mention this mulberry forest, even the best farmland in the family can be allocated a few acres.

"mother!"

While the woman was still worried, she heard an anxious call from Xiao Xiu'er, who had already run out first.

"Xiu'er, what's wrong?"

The woman's expression immediately changed, and she ran in the direction of the little girl.

When the woman saw clearly what happened, her expression immediately became panicked.

"What can we do!"

The woman immediately became anxious.

I saw that many branches of my mulberry tree were broken, and the mulberries on it had all fallen off.

It doesn't matter if the mulberries fall. Pick them up from the ground, wash them, and you can still eat them.

However, the branches of the mulberry tree are broken, which not only means that the mulberry tree has been damaged, but also the family may be held accountable.

Not cherishing one's own property is not a good reputation within the family.

Of course, once his son can become a master, these will not be a problem. The key is that his son is not a master yet!

The culprit of all this is a figure lying under the mulberry tree.

The figure lying under the mulberry tree had messy clothes and even many wounds on his body.

"This guy got a thousand cuts!" A curse immediately came from the woman's mouth: "If you don't steal the mulberries from the abundant harvest in front of you, you come to the back to steal mulberries. It's simply abominable!"

As she spoke, the woman picked up a wooden stick from the surroundings and slowly groped towards the body lying on the ground.

From the woman's perspective, the figure lying on the ground was someone who had gone to steal something from her mulberry tree, but ended up missing her foot and falling from the tree.

But then I thought, that’s not right!

The mulberry tree is not very tall to begin with, so even if it fell, it would not be so serious!

Anyway, no matter what, the figure lying on the ground is a thief!

The woman stretched the figure lying on the ground with a wooden stick. When she saw no reaction, the woman boldly turned over the figure lying on the ground.

"ah!"

"mother!"

When the figure was turned over, the woman and the little girl both let out a sound of fright.

I saw the figure lying on the ground with several bone-deep wounds on his chest, and even his ribs were exposed.

Not only that, there are also many wounds on this person's face, and his face can no longer be seen clearly.

The woman and the little girl were so frightened that they took a few steps back and collapsed on the ground. The little girl hugged the woman and buried her face.

With such horrific injuries, even those who came down from the battlefield were not so miserable!

Soon after, the woman recovered, patted the little girl gently, and said comfortingly: "Xiu'er, don't cry, don't cry..."

Can the little girl stop crying?

So scary!

After spending a lot of time, the woman finally comforted the little girl.

Then, the woman slowly walked towards the figure covered in wounds.

Dead people are not scary. In today's environment, women have seen dead people. There are also many thieves beaten to death by their families every year.

However, this man not only died under his own mulberry tree, but also destroyed the branches of the mulberry tree. According to the family's temperament, once it was known, taking back the mulberry tree was a trivial matter and blaming his son would be a bit troublesome.

Even if he becomes a master, his status within the family will only rise sharply, and he will not be able to transcend the constraints of the family. Otherwise, if his son can become a master, he will not send him away with a mulberry tree.

Looking at the figure under the mulberry tree, the woman's eyes showed doubts, because the woman found that it seemed that the man was not dead? ! Fupin Chinese
