Chapter 1520 Falling in love with the down-and-out scholar at first sight

Big Mouth was overjoyed and quickly asked: "Really? Did they really say they would come to pick me up?"

"As I said, we all signed the contract. Otherwise, do you think your family's one tael of silver every month is free?"

"What?! One tael of silver per month?!" Big Mouth was shocked, "How can I give you so much? You are robbing me. Even if I eat and drink, I can't eat more than one tael of silver in a month..."

"Do you think that by sending you here, we will just take care of you for free and don't need to work hard for your money?" The man gave you a look of disdain.

"Isn't this a nunnery? How can you, a monk, be compassionate and ask for our money?"

"So, this is called 'incense money'."

Big Mouth:...Didn’t you just say it was hard-earned money?

It's a pity that they didn't dump her at all. After explaining the rules, they threw her into a room and ignored her.

At first, Big Mouth thought her life was pretty good, as she didn't have to work and had white-flour steamed buns to eat, but she just felt sorry for her one tael of silver. When she goes back, she will definitely settle the score with those losers.

However, she soon discovered that she was overthinking it - she didn't have to work for the first three days because she had just arrived and was given an "adaptation period".

After the adaptation period passed, people began to arrange living arrangements for her.

Clean the yard, cut firewood, tend vegetables, pick fruits...

In short, she used to be able to direct her daughter-in-law to do the work at home, but now she has to do it all by herself.

"I won't do it!"

Big mouth throws things away and is unwilling to work.

They didn't talk nonsense to her, they just didn't do it and sent her directly back to the house.

Big Mouth thought he was smart and escaped the hard work, but to his surprise, there would be no dinner that night.

"What do you mean, where is my food?"

The man looked at her coldly: "If you don't work, where will you get food? Do you really think we are the kind of nunnery that saves lives and saves all sentient beings? We are a nunnery here that 'takes in' people who have made mistakes.

, just for you to change..."

No matter how loudly she cried, saying that her family gave her money, it was still one tael of silver every month, but they just ignored her.

The screaming was so annoying that I didn't even give her water to drink.

The first person who couldn't hold it back was the big mouth. He was old and had limited energy. In addition, crying was a waste of his voice and energy, so he stopped eating very quickly.

The next day, the man stood at the door and asked, "Are you going to work today?"

Big Mouth looked at the white flour buns and water in her hand, and swallowed the almost dry saliva: "If I don't work, won't I even have breakfast?"

"Um!"

Big Mouth just wants to cry. She has said so. How dare she refuse to agree?

In fact, the work is not heavy, that is, cleaning the yard and washing vegetables. However, the yard is a bit big and there are a lot of vegetables to wash.

Big Mouth, who had not worked like this for a long time, soon couldn't stand it anymore, and she thought of "escape".

She didn't believe what the nun who was responsible for guarding her said at all. What kind of deep mountains and old forests were infested with big insects? If that was really the case, how could they go out on a regular basis? Aren't they afraid of being bitten by big bugs?

So on a moonless night, Big Mouth prepared an escape plan.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, it’s the right time.

Big Mouth quietly opened the door and came out smoothly.

But soon, she ran back in a state of embarrassment - because she met a wolf on the road, with a pair of green eyes and a low growl, which scared her so much that she almost peed her pants.

Why are you running? Life is more important.

"Haha! Run, why don't you run?" As soon as the front foot came back, the back foot saw the man appearing with his arms folded.

Big Mouth was startled: "You...why are you here?!"

"Someone is trying to escape, so of course I have to help her look after her. Why are you back so soon? Are you lost, or have you forgotten something?"

"Who's running away? That's nonsense. I got up at night and went to the hut..." A big-mouthed duck has a tough mouth, and he won't admit it until he kills him.

The man raised his chin and asked her to look at himself: "Then what happened to you? Did you fall into the latrine?"

"When I was going to the hut, I accidentally stepped on a stone and fell down. Can't you do it?" Big Mouth lowered her head and found that there were weeds and other things everywhere on her body. She quickly brushed them off. She also made excuses, but she just refused to admit that she had "

"Escaped".

"Okay! But in my case, going out without saying hello is 'escape'. I should have told you that running away will be punished, right?" The man said with a cold expression, "Starting from tomorrow, your

The white flour buns are gone."

"I paid for that..." Big Mouth was anxious, what would she eat without the white flour steamed buns?

Are you like those wives, eating whole grain cakes?

Oops, the rice bran inside is so hard that it could kill someone.

"Also, you will wash the clothes from now on." The man added.

Big Mouth was not convinced and wanted to make a fuss, but they bundled her up and threw her into the woodshed without giving her anything to eat.

After a few hungry meals and a taste of dizziness, I no longer dared to speak loudly.

She finally discovered that this old nun has the same character as the old pious woman she hates most, and she will starve you at every turn. But in a place like this, she can't do anything to her every day, and she can't do anything to her. Apart from being "obedient",

There is no choice.

After washing the clothes, she realized that there were not many nuns in this nunnery, but there were so many clothes that she couldn't finish them in one day.

For several days, she suffered from back pain and was so angry that she beat her clothes several times.

result……

As a result, the clothes were torn and the punishment was doubled.

Big Mouth: "..."

It's okay to wash it when the weather isn't that cold, but when it gets cold, your hands can't stand it.

Once your hands can't stand it, it will be even harder to wash your clothes.

The more poorly the clothes are washed, the more severe the punishment; the more severe the punishment, the more poorly the clothes are washed, and it becomes a vicious cycle.

Big Mouth was trimmed so that he lost his arrogance and cried several times.

But after crying, the clothes still have to be washed.

The worst thing is that on a very cold day, all the tears were blown to my face by the wind. After a day, it cracked and it was extremely uncomfortable.

Big Mouth looked at his red and swollen fingers, it was neither right nor wrong to cry, it was extremely frustrating.

"How much time is left?"

She asked the old nun angrily, and the old nun also helped her do the math seriously, telling her that it was still early. She had only been in the past three months and had not celebrated the New Year yet. By the time she was picked up, spring would have started.

And as far as her current performance is concerned, there is no sign of improvement at all, and her family may not necessarily pick her up when they come.

Big Mouth was shocked and threw the clothes in his hands into the basin: "What do you mean?! Didn't you say that my situation is special and they will come to pick me up in half a year? Why are you saying now that they

You may not take my hand?"

The old nun's expression remained unchanged and said: "I told you, it depends on your performance. If you behave well, they will come to pick you up in half a year, and you can leave directly. If you do not behave well, what do you think will happen in half a year?

Will they still come to pick you up?"

Big Mouth despaired: "You still have to behave well?! What does it mean to behave well? I have worked so hard to help you wash your clothes, what else do you want... In this cold day, there is not even a basin of hot water.
