Chapter 3

Li Yuezhu watched as the four brothers of the Li family helped the old lady away. The old lady cursed before leaving: "You little bitch, just wait for me. Sooner or later, I will tear your face to pieces and sell you to Yihongyuan."

.”

Li Yuezhu listened to the old lady's dirty words, picked up the broom on the ground and chased her out.

When the four brothers of the Li family saw Li Yuezhu chasing him out, they carried the old lady and ran outside. When they saw the five of them running away, Li Yuezhu turned back and entered the house.

Xiao An timidly hid behind the door. He was already frightened by these people. He had never seen such a battle before.

My mother was still sitting on the ground in a daze. She had not heard from her father for half a year. She originally wanted to go out and inquire, but today she suddenly heard the old lady say this. She suddenly seemed to have lost her backbone.

"Mom, are you okay?" Li Yuezhu ran to Dudu's side and tried to help her up, but all his strength had been used up just now.

"Xiao An, come here and help your mother to the bed."

Xiao An hurriedly ran out of the house. He was small in stature and not very strong. He and Li Yuezhu stumbled before carrying Mr. Zhou back to the house.

"Mom, don't listen to that old woman's nonsense. How did she know that her father died in the war? She has never been to the battlefield. That dead old woman clearly has her eye on our homestead."

Li Yuezhu tried to comfort the helpless Zhou family. When Zhou family heard her daughter's words, she burst into tears.

"It's your mother's fault. It's your mother who didn't take good care of you. Now there's no news from your father, how can we live our lives!"

Ms. Zhou was devastated. Her husband had been gone for five years, and he would send a sum of money home every once in a while. Ms. Zhou used all the money to educate her children. If her husband died in the battle, how would they survive?

?

In the end, Ms. Zhou could not prepare lunch for Li Yuezhu. After the battle at noon, Ms. Zhou fell ill. Li Yuezhu helped Ms. Zhou lie on the bed, looked at her mother's sallow face, and sighed deeply.

Life is hard!

Finding the kitchen from the yard, Li Yuezhu walked in and saw that there was only a bowl of noodles left in the kitchen.

"Xiao An, come and help sister light the fire."

"Okay, sister."

Xiao An is very well-behaved, and his movements of making fire are very skillful. It can be seen that it is the result of years of practice. Li Yuezhu is really embarrassed to say that she can't make fire. It is really a poor child who has long been in charge.

"Sister is so brave today. Xiao An should be like her. When Xiao An becomes a general, he can protect his sister and mother!"

Li Yuezhu poured water into the pot and listened to Xiao An's lofty ambitions, "Okay, sister will wait for the day when Xiao An becomes a general."

After making the batter, Li Yuezhu served a bowl to Xiao An. The child was growing tall. Although there was no way to provide him with more nutrients, he at least had to be fed.

There was still more than half a bowl left, so Li Yuezhu scooped it up and gave it to his mother.

My mother was lying on the bed in a daze, and her face was getting worse and worse. It seemed that this incident had dealt a heavy blow to her.

Li Yuezhu woke Mrs. Zhou up, drank the bowl of porridge, and she lay down again. She was fine this time, but Li Yuezhu's health was just about right when her mother fell ill again.

Looking at the cracked bowl, the stool with missing legs in the corner, the long cracks on the wall, and not even a grain of rice in the house, one can imagine how poor the family was.

It was getting dark, and Li Yuezhu was sitting alone on the threshold. He just learned from Xiao An that all the money at home had been used to hire a doctor for her yesterday.

Looking at the stars in the sky, Li Yuezhu felt extremely embarrassed for the first time. The hero was stumped by a penny. After this meal, their family had no food at all. Li Yuezhu didn't even know what he would eat tomorrow.

Suddenly thinking of the system she saw at noon, she blinked hard again, and that system indeed appeared in front of her.

There is a product column in this shopping system. Li Yuezhu clicked it and added products. Many dotted lines appeared in Li Yuezhu's field of vision. She was surprised to find that the word "Dandelion" appeared in a corner. After clicking,

An active window appears.

【Name】Dandelion

[Function] Can be used as herbal medicine and edible wild vegetables

【Price】0.5 yuan

【Whether to sell】Yes/No

This active window only had this bit of information, and Li Yuezhu clicked decisively.

She chose to add products again, stood up and scanned the room.

【Name】Old table and chair board

【Price】Sorry cannot be sold

These things could not be sold. Li Yuezhu turned to other places and walked around the house, but could not find anything that could be sold.

Also, how can such a shabby thing be sold?

She glanced around the room again, and suddenly she saw a white fabric in the sewing basket on the table. She quickly walked over, took away other unsightly things, and placed a handkerchief made of linen inside.

This handkerchief is made of linen. It feels a little hard and has some flowers and birds embroidered on it. It should be made by his mother. Li Yuezhu looked back at his sleeping mother and Xiao An and held the handkerchief made of linen in his hand.

After selecting it, an active window also appeared in her field of vision.

[Name] Linen handkerchief

[Function] Wipe sweat, wipe tears, necessary to cover shame

【Price】30 yuan

【Whether to sell】Yes/No

After Li Yuezhu clicked yes, two products were on sale in her mooncake-loving bamboo shop.

She checked the previous store properties.

[Name] Bamboo who loves to eat mooncakes

【Product】2(2/10)

【Level】0

【Money】0

I hope this handkerchief can be sold as soon as possible!

People in ancient times usually went to bed very early. At eight o'clock, there was no one outside. Just when Li Yuezhu was about to close the door and go back to rest, a person came in like a storm from outside.

"Xiaozhu, are you okay? Are you injured anywhere?"

Li Yuezhu stared blankly at the young man who was touching her, a little at a loss. Can anyone tell him who this young man is?

This young man has a smooth and white face, with a somewhat angular profile; deep black eyes with a charming color; thick eyebrows, a high nose, and a warm embrace; he is such a gentle young man.

"What's wrong with Zhu'er? Who's here?"

It seems that the young man's loud opening of the door woke up his sleeping mother. Mrs. Zhou walked out of bed with her clothes on.

"Lan'er, why are you back?"

"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Through the not-so-bright moonlight, Li Yuelan could see her mother's slightly haggard face.

"A good friend told me that my sister was injured by my third aunt. I was afraid that something would happen to her again, so I hurried back to take a look."

Li Yuezhu finally knew who this half-grown young man was. If he guessed correctly, she should have an older brother.

"Is Zhu'er okay?"

The young man looked around and saw that Li Yuezhu seemed to be fine, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mom, tell me what happens at home. Don't let me worry outside all the time."

"You can study in a private school with peace of mind. What will happen at home?"

"Brother, mother is lying to you!" Xiao An, who woke up at some point, sat up and threw herself on Li Yuelan.

"What's wrong? What happened at home?" Li Yuelan asked immediately after hearing what Xiao An said.

"Yesterday, my sister was hit in the head by my third aunt with a hammer. Today my third aunt and her four uncles came to the house to cause trouble."

"Xiao An, shut up." Mrs. Zhou quickly pulled Xiao An behind her: "Lan'er, don't listen to Xiao An's nonsense. You can stay at home for one night today and go to a private school with peace of mind tomorrow."
