Chapter 157: Desperate Escape from the Blind Mountain Prison 04

Agui's mother is already an old lady in her sixties, but she is still in good spirits, and her movements are as neat as those of a young man in the city, and a pair of mung bean-like eyes are shining on her thin sallow face.

The atmosphere of "ghost talk" that Bai Lu had deliberately created dissipated as she entered, and the old lady's gaze staring at Bai Lu was sharper than that of Ah Gui, the kind of meaning that she wanted to take off Bai Lu's skin to see inside.

For A Guiniang, a daughter-in-law who has been a mother-in-law for many years, what she wants is a daughter-in-law who can not only give birth to grandchildren, but also work hard and wait for her in-laws.

Bai Lu could see that Ah Guiniang was dissatisfied with her, and naturally knew that in the eyes of the old lady, men should sit and talk, and women should stand and listen to orders, and the current scene is completely opposite.

If it is an experienced salesman, he can even suppress the impatience in his heart at this time, and greet the old lady sweetly to win a small favor, but Bai Lu has not yet practiced to that point, and is even in the panic and disgust of the status quo.

Bai Lu told herself that she was just a mountain village woman, and she didn't know a lot of words, in comparison, she was full of poetry and books, and knowledge was power... Culture is power......

In fact, this autosuggestion, Bai Lu himself does not believe it, after all, it is not the occasion of the score, Xiucai meets soldiers, it is unreasonable, the rules of civilized society and the natives of the mountain village are also said in vain, let you talk about it in a fanciful way, people don't believe it at all.

Bai Lu barely squeezed out a smile, but it was actually stiff. All she can do now is to talk nonsense, and when she is persuaded by herself, she will be convinced.

"I'm not talking nonsense!" Bai Lu argued, she needed a strong basis, she didn't have the congenital conditions, so she could only shape herself: "Mr. Zhou has lived to be ninety-six years old!

Every old man hopes to live a long life, and those who live to ninety-nine still want to reach a hundred, so Ah Guiniang plans to listen to Xiao Niangpi for the time being.

"Mr. Zhou said, if I get married in or before the Ghost Month. If the husband's family is hard, it's fine. But it will definitely be transferred to his fellow countrymen. ”

Bai Lu didn't have anything like alum, potassium chloride and other pretending to be ghosts, so he had to expand to all aspects of celestial phenomena and visions.

"For example, the dogs of the same village will bark in the middle of the night, the well water will become turbid, and the things in the crops will be inexplicably missing...... "Bai Lu has already developed a rich association, everything that may happen, but the reason for the time being, will be a "ominous" sign of her marriage before the ghost month and the ghost month.

"Children will vomit and diarrhea, women will have unclean water, and the elderly will suddenly have joint pain. And ......"

"Don't say it!" the old lady interrupted Bai Lu with a sudden remark.

Bai Lu was frightened by A Guiniang's scolding. She was so close to believing herself that she had just said that.

Ah Gui Niang told Ah Gui to go out. It is estimated that the mother and son have something to say.

Bai Lu was left alone in the house, and she could feel the nerves in her temples beating bulgingly, and the heat brought by the rising sun outside was gradually becoming apparent. The chirping of cicadas in the mountains, which I didn't care about, seemed to suddenly sound in concert, and the listeners were upset.

Looking at this situation, she wants to fool not only Agui, but also Agui's mother and father, and even a whole village.

Nima's, she usually conquers only one or two, when it is a little difficult, she meets a family of three who are all superb, but she can still count them with her fingers~ And now, she has to fight the wonders of a whole village, and the span should not be so big!

Spit on the verge of danger is a way to relax and relieve tension on the spot, Bai Lu tries to let herself jump out of the game to look at the problem, otherwise the immersive fear is too great, and she can't calm down, at this time, faintly, you can hear the local dialect outside the house.

"Mother, what's wrong?" asked Agui.

"What did the little girl tell you?"

"As far as my mother just heard, she said that our family was deceived by her eldest brother, and she couldn't marry before the ghost moon and the ghost moon. ”

"Didn't you say in the morning that it wasn't her eldest brother, why did you admit it again?"

"I don't know. ”

"When she says this, she doesn't want to run, right? Ah Gui, my mother told you, you can't be soft-hearted when you marry this wife, you should beat it, you must not be like Ah Tu who is reluctant to beat and scold, marrying a mother-in-law is the same as offering a mother-in-law. ”

"I know my mother, if she runs away, I will break her legs! Tie a rope around her neck and tie it to our livestock shed!" Ah Gui said to his old lady with a swear.

"How can you tie it to the livestock shed, this is what I and your father have hired for most of our lives, if she sleeps with the livestock, then our family might as well buy a few more pigs!

"Yes, yes, mother, you're right!"

"This little lady said that the ghost moon can't marry someone or something, but I haven't heard that you can't marry before the ghost moon, this matter will wait for your father to come back from the ground, you just need to keep it at ease for the past two days, and the most important thing is to take care of people!"

……

Bai Lu didn't know that Agui outside the house wanted to tie a rope around her neck and hang it in the livestock shed, but this was not an unusual thing in Ligou Village.

The location of Ligou Village is partial, not to mention the fields that can be planted, and the soil quality is not good, so the harvest is not good, and the villagers have been in the ground for generations, so they have been poor from generation to generation, and they have not changed for hundreds of years.

Such a poor village naturally marries girls to rich villages in exchange for dowry, so boys in the same village will not be able to marry wives, so the age is getting older and older, if there is a sister in the family, you can also "exchange relatives" with other villages.

In order to pass on the family lineage and save money, each family married their own daughter to the other's son, as if they were exchanged for the same price.

But a person like Agui, whose family is too poor and has no sisters to change relatives, has to fight as a single, otherwise he would not marry a wife until he was forty years old.

Speaking of the so-called 3,000 yuan "dowry" in Agui's family, part of it was saved by Agui's father and mother for decades, and the other part was borrowed from someone else in the village.

And the matchmaker who introduced his wife was He Sangu, a matchmaker who was very famous in several places such as Ligou Village, He Sangu first took half of the dowry to talk to the woman's mother's family, and after the negotiation, let the woman bring the girl who said goodbye to the village to see each other, if it could be counted.

At first, Zheng Huansha would never have thought that it was the woman's parents arranged by He Sangu to bring people to "see each other" when she went into the mountain to buy medicinal materials.

Hu Yanyan and Manager Huang are responsible for the "supply of goods", and He Sangu is responsible for "export sales", which is essentially a gang of individual traffickers-
