Chapter 7 Don’t lose yourself

The next day, the news that Wang Chunmei hanged herself in her courtyard spread widely in Panshi Village.

"Wang Chunmei... go up..." Hang?

Shen Zhihuan squirted out a mouthful of wild vegetable soup.

Are all women in this era so willful?

Hang yourself if you disagree.

"Sister Huan, don't be afraid. My father said that old lady Wang Chunmei is not dead, but her leg is broken." The little fat man ran to Shen Zhihuan's side and stroked Shen Zhihuan's back like a little devil. Help her calm down.

"Broken leg?" Shen Zhihuan glanced at the fat man suspiciously, seriously suspecting that the fat man had misunderstood.

Li Qiuhua also looked stunned.

How can you still break your legs by hanging?

"Yeah!" Xiaopang nodded heavily.

"I heard from my aunt and my mother that Wang Chunmei, an old lady, took a belt and tied it to the crooked neck tree at her house. As soon as she was hung up, the belt broke and she fell down."

Shen Zhihuan: "..."

Waistband...hanging?

Fortunately Wang Chunmei could figure it out.

"My father said that old lady Wang Chunmei suffered a serious fall. She won't be able to get out of bed unless she lies in bed for two or three months." Xiaopang said while gesticulating.

Breakfast ended with Xiaopang's lively gestures.

After sending Xiao Weidong and Xiaopang away, Shen Zhihuan looked at Li Qiuhua who was clearing away the dishes and said, "Mom, I want to go to the town."

"Going to town? What are you doing in town? The sun is so bright." Li Qiuhua frowned.

"I want to borrow a book from my classmates in junior high school." Shen Zhihuan smiled apologetically.

After thinking hard all morning, this excuse seemed more reliable.

Li Qiuhua thought for a moment and said, "You're just getting better now. If you don't want to take good care of yourself for a few days and rest after a few days, Dongzi and I will go with you."

Panshi Village is located in a remote place, and you have to walk for more than half an hour without stopping to go to the town for the market. The sun is strong, and the girl is so weak that she can't bear it. "Mom, I'm much better now, just let me go! I promise to go and come back soon, mom..." Shen Zhihuan hugged Li Qiuhua's arm and shook it, coquettishly.

“…”

"mother…"

“…”

"mother…"

"Your Uncle Wang seems to be going to town today to buy goods. I'm going to ask him when he will leave." Facing Shen Zhihuan's insistence, Li Qiuhua sighed lightly, and finally relaxed.

"Thank you, mother." Shen Zhihuan happily kissed Li Qiuhua on the face.

"This girl, the older she gets, the less formal she becomes..." Li Qiuhua laughed and scolded.

Before, she was a little worried that her daughter would be unhappy after canceling the engagement, but now it seemed that she was overthinking it.

Afraid that Wang Baotian was gone and her daughter wouldn't be able to catch a ride, Li Qiuhua didn't bother to put away the dishes, took off her apron and went straight to Wang's house not far away.

After watching Li Qiuhua leave the courtyard, Shen Zhihuan put on an apron and neatly put away the dishes and chopsticks.

When Li Qiuhua came back, Shen Zhihuan had already put on his backpack and was ready to go out.

Seeing this, Li Qiuhua hurriedly called to Shen Zhihuan. After a while, Li Qiuhua returned and stuffed two 50-cent cents and a food stamp into Shen Zhihuan's hands.

"Buy something to eat when you're hungry. Don't lose your money just because you feel sorry for yourself."

"Mom, I know." Shen Zhihuan nodded slightly and put the wool stamps and food stamps into his pocket.

When she got up in the morning, she threw the one dollar and sixty-eight that the original owner had saved into the resort. It was her first time to go to the county town to make a living, and it was always good to have more money.

"My classmates and I haven't seen each other for a long time. We might want to play for a while."

Before going out, Shen Zhihuan gave Li Qiuhua a vaccination in advance so as not to worry her if he came back late.
