"Mom, wait for me..."

"You're going too fast!"

A little girl, probably only six or seven years old, was carrying a small backpack on her back, mumbling, and her eyes were full of dissatisfaction.

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 announced. If we don't go back soon, you won't know whether 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, I 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, looked at the little girl who had followed her, smiled, shook her head, and said nothing more.

The little girl doesn’t know, but the woman knows very well that once she becomes a master, she will 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 took the reluctant little girl and walked towards the other side of the mulberry forest.

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 the fruits they produced.

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 we can do 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 a tree. It can satisfy his craving every time in this 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 was no way, since the man's death, the whole family had not contributed much to the family, and the family's fields and some supplies had 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 will be allocated a few acres.

"mother!"

While the woman was still worried, she heard Xiao Xiu'er, who had already run out first, calling slightly anxiously.

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

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

Of course, once your son can become a master, these will not be a problem. The key is that your 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 her body.

"This guy got a thousand cuts!" A curse came out from the woman's mouth immediately: "If you don't steal the mulberries from the abundant harvest in the front, 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.

In the woman's opinion, the figure lying on the ground was that she had gone to steal something from her mulberry tree, but she missed her footing and fell 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, both the woman and the little girl made 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 were also many wounds on this person's face, and his face could no longer be clearly seen.

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 it on his own son would be a bit troublesome.

Even if he becomes a master, his status in 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.
