Eight mosquitoes are busy Here comes her daughter!Wang Po's daughter is here! Wang Po can sit on the riverside with a fishing rod and fish!The wrinkles on her face didn't grow or shrink.This proves that she still hasn't changed much, and she still has to live. At night, the sound of frogs by the river is deafening.Mosquitoes set out from the grass by the river, buzzing and noisy, permeating every family.The sun is also hot during the day!The sun burns on people's skin, and in summer the people on the Grange hate the sun as much as they hate a vicious violent man.Throughout the field, a big fireball rolled there.

But the queen always welcomes summer.Because summer has fat green leaves, a fat garden, and summer night will arouse Wang Po's poetic heart, she should start telling stories to Xia Ye.She didn't say anything this summer! She snuggled up under the window as if she was asleep, facing the deep sky. The cry of frogs shatters everyone's loneliness; the harassment of mosquitoes cannot stop. It was the usual June, and it was the harvest time of last year.Mrs. Wang's family didn't plant any wheat fields this year.She is more sad and silent!When she passed the wavy wheat field with her fishing rod, she coiled the line at the end of the rod, raised her head, looked at the sky, and passed the wheat field without paying attention.

Wang Po's temperament is even worse!She was drinking again.She fishes every day.She doesn't mend the clothes of the whole family, she just cooks fish every night, eats wine, gets drunk, and spins around the yard and house; gradually she wants to spin around in the woods. Sometimes in the wine glass she thought of her former husband; she was sad to see her lonely daughter by her side, anyway, after drinking, she liked to think about it even more. Now she is almost ridiculous, sinking in the courtyard like a stone, she is used to sleeping in the courtyard at night. Sleeping in the courtyard is surrounded by mosquitoes, just like ants dragging rotten flies.She is no longer in the mood!Never live in the mood again!

Wang Po was eaten by mosquitoes, her face was covered with clouds and her skin was swollen. In the wine glass, Wang Po also recalled the day when her daughter first arrived, and her daughter was lying in Wang Po's arms: "Oh my god! I think you are dead! Your mouth is foaming, and your fingers are cold!  …Brother I died, and my mother died too, where can I go to beg for food!... When they drove me out, they forgot all the burdens they brought, and I cried... I fainted from crying... Mom, they are bad-hearted, They didn't tell me to watch you for a moment..." Later, when the child stood up from her mother's arms, she said something more meaningful: "I hate them! If my brother is alive, I will definitely tell him to beat them to death."

The last girl wiped away her tears and said, "I must be like my brother..." She bit her lip when she finished. Wang Po thought how could a girl be so violent?Or a child in the middle? Wang Po suddenly stopped drinking. Every night, she began to teach her daughter a lesson in the forest. In the quiet forest, she said sternly: "I want revenge. I want to avenge my brother. Who killed your brother?" The girl thought: "The official kills my brother." She heard her mother say, "Whoever killed my brother, you want to kill..." After thinking about it for more than ten days, the girl hesitated to her mother: "Who killed my brother? Mom will lead me into the city tomorrow to find that enemy. When I meet him later, I can kill him."

The child spoke childishly and made the mother laugh!Make mommy heartache. On the night when Wang Po quarreled with Zhao San, the water of the Nanhe River rose out of the river bed.Nanheyan yelled: "The water is rising! The water is rising!" People came and went by the river, and Zhao San shouted at home: "Tell her to go, she is not a child of my family, and I will not keep your cub. The next day, the wheat of the family will be delivered to the wheat field. The first When harvesting wheat, people would have a meal of wine to celebrate.
