There are three people in the Liu family. In addition to Li Lanzhi and Liu Guisheng, there is also Liu Sun, who is Li Lanzhi's mother-in-law. Originally, Li Lanzhi had a daughter, but on the way to escape from famine a few years ago, because she could not raise her daughter, Liu Sun, was thrown on the road by her mother-in-law Liu Sun.

Like the original owner Li Lanzhi, Liu Sun is a woman who loves Liu Guisheng as much as a treasure. She calls him heartfelt every day, and can't stand him in any way. This time, Liu Guisheng made a big mistake. Liu Sun was scared and fell ill and could not afford to rest as he was bedridden. She just drove Li Lanzhi to save her grandson. Now she is waiting at home for her precious grandson to return safely.

Although Mercury did not see the subsequent development plot, she only looked at the previous love. She knew what kind of person Liu Sun was. After all, she had seen such a mother-in-law before several stories. They all had common traits, and this trait was the scar given to them by the times.

Because only men can support a family, only labor can ensure their survival, because with men in them, they can avoid a lot of harassment, so they regard the men in the family as more important than anything else, and even more important than their own lives.

In this way, the natural class gradually continues, and becomes the default rule written in people's hearts, and then various rules for further division of status are derived.

They are all people who are trapped in this set of rules. A person's behavior is often seen in the current era. Whether it is Liu Sun or Li Lanzhi, they are all very common female images in this era.

"Sister-in-law Lanzhi, how can you explain to your mother-in-law after you go back?" The neighbor who was back with Mercury knew the situation at her home and was a little worried about her.

Mercury had no fluctuations in her heart, and a embarrassed look appeared on her face, "There is no choice but to tell her mother-in-law, hoping that she can forgive me."

Neighbor: "If there is anything, please call us."

Liu Sun usually beat or scold Li Lanzhi, and they all know this. This time Li Lanzhi killed Liu Guisheng with his own hands, and Liu Sun was afraid that he would beat her to death.

Mercury thanked the neighbors for their kindness, pushed open the yard door and walked into the Liu family, and closed the door and tied it with a bolt.

She looked around the Liu family's yard. Although the yard was small and torn, it was cleaned very clean. Li Lanzhi was very capable. She has been relying on her to support her family for the years and helping others wash clothes and sew things. There were chickens in the yard and were clamoring. These chickens lay two to three eggs a day, one for Liu Guisheng to eat, and save the rest for money.

Hearing the sound of the courtyard gate opening and closing, Liu Sun in the room shouted: "Guisheng? Where is Guisheng? Are you back?"

Mercury didn't answer, so she walked to the water tank in a corner of the yard to wash her face and hands. Her body was covered with Liu Guisheng's blood, which was sticky and fishy, ​​and it was not very pleasant.

After not hearing the answer for a long time, Liu Sun got up from the bed and walked out of the door. She saw Mercury's back at first sight, but she didn't see Liu Guisheng in the yard. She asked loudly and anxiously: "Where is my grandson, why didn't you bring him back! You, the star of the desolation, hurry up and save my grandson!"

Mercury turned her head and looked at her. The blood on her face had not been washed away, and the water droplets were mixed with red. The cold glance seemed very terrifying.

Liu Sun screamed: "Blood!"

"Whose blood is that? What about Guisheng? What about Guisheng?!"

Mercury turned a blind eye and continued to wash her face with her eyes hanging down. Even her hair was covered with blood. She had to take a cloth towel and wash the ends with her hair loose. She took a cloth towel drying on a bamboo pole.

Liu Sun rushed towards her, and Mercury easily avoided her, revealing her bloody jacket and trousers.

"Liu Gui is alive and dead. I'm killing it. The body is now hanging at the city gate." She suddenly laughed, hooked her hair and whispered.

Liu Sun was shocked by her appearance. Li Lanzhi looked good. When his son wanted to marry her, Liu Sun was not satisfied. Later, when his son died, Li Lanzhi became a widow. Liu Sun always felt that she was good-looking and was definitely not a woman of peace. In the future, she would definitely hook up with other men, embarrass her poor son who died early, so she always disliked her and was particularly harsh.

At this time, seeing Li Lanzhi with seaweed-like black hair, a strange smile, and half of her body was covered in blood, she felt fear for a moment and her speech became vague, "What kind of monster are you? You are not Li Lanzhi! What's wrong with you because of my grandson!"

Mercury: "I said, I killed him and hung him at the gate of the city. If you don't believe me, go and see it."

Liu Sun was crying and screaming, and she was a ghost, and she rushed to the door without anyone's face, and stumbled out all the way.

Seeing that her legs and feet are quite good, why did she force Li Lanzhi to block the gun before? If she went by herself, her baby grandson might not die.

Mercury closed the wide open door again, found Li Lanzhi's room to change clothes, change clothes, and cook with fire. Li Lanzhi's health was pretty good, but she was too hungry. She used all her strength to cut Liu Guisheng before, but now she was so hungry that she was not energetic.

Before, Li Lanzhi was reluctant to use oil, eggs, and brown sugar hidden in his room by Liu Sun, so he made a simple sugar-water egg to pad his belly.

After eating and sleeping, what does Liu Sun have to do with her?

Liu Sun cried all the way to the city gate. When he saw the body of his baby grandson hanging there floating around, he fainted on the spot. Unfortunately, no one passed by the city gate at this moment. She lay there for most of the day and was awakened by the rain. She sat in the heavy rain and patted her thighs and cried heartbrokenly. It was almost dark before a passing man discovered her and sent her back to death.

Mercury had woken up and was counting the property in the house. When he saw someone bringing Liu Sun back, he put a worried look on his face and let the person in.

"Oh, Guisheng is dead now, Grandma Sun must be sad. You have watched her a little recently, don't let her go out and run around. If I didn't pass by, she was afraid that she would spend a night outside the city and be taken away by wild beasts on the mountain."

This man was also one of the people who had shouted in the audience that he wanted to burn Liu Guisheng to death, but he had no objection to Liu Sun. After all, although Liu Sun was very harsh to Li Lanzhi, he was very polite to others. Perhaps because his family was rich in the past, he was quite generous in his actions. Most of the nearby leaders had a good relationship with her.

This is how people are. People who are good to themselves are good people, and people who are bad people are bad people. For Li Lanzhi, Liu Sun lost her biological daughter and spoke ill of her every day. She is undoubtedly a bad person, but she is also a good person in the eyes of others.

Mercury smiled and sent the person away. When he turned back, Liu Sun had already recovered and stared at her with a muddy and hatred gaze, "You, you damn monster! Return my grandson to me!"

Mercury: "Your grandson can't pay you back. If you want to see him, I can send you to see you."

After she said that, she returned to Li Lanzhi's house to rest.

It rained heavily at night, and thunder sounded, and Mercury suddenly woke up. She heard the sound of the chair being pushed at the door. Li Lanzhi's door could not be locked. She pressed it against the chair before going to bed. Now the chair was being pushed away.

Amid the thunder, the sound of the chair moving was not very loud. A short figure appeared outside the door. When the lightning fell, the knife in the shadow's hand flashed with a sharp light.

It was Liu Sun, who pushed her door with a knife in the middle of the night, and it was definitely not for her to shave her head.

She is here to kill her.

This was a bit beyond Mercury's expectations. She didn't expect that such an old man would dare to kill someone. It seemed that Liu Guisheng's death really made her feel desperate.

Mercury sat up quietly in the darkness, touched the belt on one side, and slowly turned from the other side to behind the door with a low body.

Liu Sun's eyes were like most old people. They were almost blind at night, and only saw shadows in vaguely. She walked without sound at all. She tiptoed to the edge of the bed with a knife, her body trembled slightly, and she chopped off hard to the vague arched quilt.

The old man with a ravine smiled and pleasure on his face, but after the knife was chopped off, she was shocked. This was not right! At this moment, her hand hurt, the knife in her hand had been kicked out, and her neck was suddenly trapped.

"Well--"

Liu Sun wanted to scream in horror, but her neck was tightly tied and she couldn't scream at all. She lifted her feet and kicked a stool beside the bed. The broken guttural sound and the movements made during the struggle were covered by heavy rain and thunder.

After a long time, the thunder stopped.

Mercury let go of his hand, and Liu Sun's body rolled to the ground.

【The main character Liu Sun died】

When Liu Gui was alive and dead, there was also a system notification. Generally speaking, two characters died in one world, and this system will soon let her go to the next world, but now, the system has no reaction.

She stood quietly in the dark for a moment, bent down and dragged Liu Sun's body up and sent it back to her own room, then took off Liu Sun's belt, hung her body up and hung it on the beam of the room.

The next morning, the clouds cleared up, and the days of clouds disappeared, but although the sky was clear, the spring was still chilly. Uncle Zhu, wearing an old blue-gray cotton jacket, stood at the door and discussed the thunder last night with people.

"That thunder was so scary last night, the door frames and windows were shaking."

"Yes, this was not the case in previous years. Thunderstorms in February may cause drought this year."

As the two said, they suddenly heard a woman's scream from the Liu family yard next to them. The two were shocked and ran over to take a look.

News of Liu Sun's suicide by hanging himself quickly spread throughout Liancheng. No one found it strange. Liu Sun regarded his grandson as his lifeblood. If his grandson was gone, it was normal for her to commit suicide. No one suspected Li Lanzhi. She lived in Liancheng for several years and treated Liu Sun even more with her than her own mother. She beat and scolded her. No one thought about her killing Liu Sun.

She held a simple funeral and buried Liu Sun on the mountain outside the city. Mercury sold her to the Liu family's yard and packed her bags and left Liancheng. She was going to find a place where no one knew Li Lanzhi to settle again. Liancheng was too small and there was no place to work in the city. If she wanted to support herself and find a more suitable job, she had to go to a bigger place.

It was a war and there were disasters everywhere. Liancheng was only scrapped by the invading army not long ago. There were many people who lost their homes and had to flee abroad. Mercury alone brought weapons and food, and made himself look like a sallow face and a pockmarked person. He followed the official road to Mei City in the south.

It is said that there is the safest place at present, and the invading army will not go there for the time being, because the Provisional Government signed a ceasefire contract there, and there were troops from two other countries stationed there. The situation was very chaotic. It is precisely because of this chaos that many people can survive in the crack.

After walking on the road for two months, I finally arrived in Mei City before I ran out of money.

It was indeed lively here. I only looked at the cars and well-dressed crowds on the street. It seemed to be two different worlds from the war zones she saw along the way.
