Chapter 158: Selling Myself
The snow was heavy that night, and she stepped on the snow with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and the snow covered her calves, and the cold wind blew on her face. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Excuse me, where is the medical center? My son is sick, can you help me? Her hair was messy, and she pulled a passer-by and asked.
The man let out a displeased snort, shook her off, and said, "Blind man." ”
Xiaobao in her arms almost fell to the ground, she frowned slightly, turned Xiaobao upside down again, and covered the child with her clothes in a haphazard manner.
Megumi didn't know where to go, she was so anxious that her tears couldn't stop flowing, so she wandered on the street, grabbed a passerby and asked, "Can you tell me where the hospital is?" My child is sick, I'm blind, please, take me to the hospital, okay? ”
Another person shook off her hand.
She didn't let go, she pulled the man's shirt tightly and knelt on the ground and said, "Please, even if you show me the way, Xiaobao won't cry, please!" ”
The man may have been pulled by her in a hurry, kicked her on the shoulder and said, "Don't go home after curfew, you wait to be caught!" ”
Caught, caught?
It's okay to be caught, at least the official will send Xiaobao to see a doctor!
With a glimmer of hope in her heart, she sat on the street with the child in her arms, hoping that an official would come over.
"Mother." A soft child's voice came.
Hui Hui put her cold hand to her lips and sighed, then stroked Xiaobao's hot cheeks and said, "Is Xiaobao uncomfortable?" ”
Xiaobao's face was red, his lips were pale, and he said angrily: "Mother doesn't cry." He lifted his small, soft hand to wipe the tears from her face.
But this time, she only felt guilty and sad, and her tears couldn't stop, she held back her tears and said with a smile: "Xiaobao is obedient, my mother will take you to see the doctor." ”
So saying, she got up again and walked on a rampage around the city, shouting as she went, "Doctor! Doctor! Help me! ”
In the past, when the Chen family was wealthy, all the neighbors cared about it, but now, his Chen family is in a lawsuit, and the man who owes foreign debts and his life and death is unknown, no one wants to meddle in his affairs.
On the empty street, the snow was falling heavier and heavier, and she walked forward with a deep foot and a shallow foot, the snow pouring into her shoes and pantyhose legs, and the cold wind pouring into her clothes.
She had never been so desperate, and she hated Chen Jingyu for the first time in her heart.
At this time, the door of a room opened, looked at Huihui, and the old man who opened the door said, "You are the woman of the Chen family?" What's wrong? ”
It was the old turtle of the Liu family who opened the door.
Megumi walked over as if she had met a savior, followed the voice, leaned over and saluted, "The dog is sick, I, I..."
"Okay, I know, you wait!" When the old turtle man said this, he turned around and went into the courtyard, put on the carriage and drove out.
Hearing the sound of the carriage, the old man said, "Get in the car quickly, I'll take you to the hospital." ”
"Thank you, Elder, thank you!" Hui Hui thanked her again and again, and got into the carriage with Xiaobao in her arms.
The old man helped knock on the door of the medical hall, but the doctor stroked his beard but shook his head and said, "Your child has died a long time ago, what are you still doing here!" ”
Megumi's sky has fallen, why did she die?
Just now while talking, Xiaobao also wiped his tears with his little soft hand, this is only a while? How could he die?
She pushed the doctor away, held Xiaobao in her arms, and roared like a crazy old hen guarding her chickens: "You just died!" You're dead! My little treasure won't die! Get lost! Get lost! Get lost! ”
The doctor is used to seeing life and death, how could he allow a madwoman to mess around in the store with a dead child, and scream while calling the apprentices to blast her out.
"Bad luck!"
"Chen Jingyu! Where are you? ”
"Look at us two!"
"Jingyu!"
"Xiaobao!"
This night, the snow was so heavy that it seemed to tear open the roof.
On the empty street, the old man drove the carriage not far away and sighed.
Even if one person reaches out to help, even if one person shows her the way with kindness, how can this child die of such a fever!
The old man couldn't help but feel sad, carried the bodies of Huihui and Xiaobao who fainted on the ground into the carriage, passed by the coffin shop, and ordered the child's coffin and pulled it back to Chen's house together.
The Chen family was even more empty, even if the door was open, no one went in to steal it.
Except for this square house that can't be taken away, it is a few worthless clothes, who will steal it?
When Hui Hui woke up again, there was some noise in her ears, she groped for the couch, and a sharp female voice came: "Chen! This is the end of the year, and the money you owe should be counted! ”
Another old man's voice said: "We have settled it for you, and the total is three hundred and five taels of silver, and this debt cannot be delayed today." ”
Hui Hui staggered and fumbled, shouting, "Where's Xiaobao? Where's my little treasure? ”
The woman said, "Your dead child is in the coffin at the door, and I tell you, if you don't pay back today, I will burn your dead child." ”
A dead child, every word pokes her heart!
But she didn't dare to be angry, and said: "Please forgive me a few days, for the sake of me as a blind man with a child, give me a few days, don't burn Xiaobao, I beg you." ”
Hui Hui was already a little beautiful, and this begging for mercy was even more pitiful, and several men were a little soft-hearted.
One said: "Otherwise, let's give it a few more days." ”
The woman said: "You men will look at the face, doing business is to win and lose, afraid of losing money, what to do business!" It is natural to repay debts, I don't care what orphans and widows she has and her dead children, if the debts are not paid off today, I will burn her dead children as interest! ”
A middle-aged businessman looked at Hui Hui's slender white neck and said with a smile: "Chen family lady, if you are willing to go home with me, I will let you be a concubine, how about I pay this debt for you?" ”
Hui Hui frowned slightly and did not answer.
The man continued: "This is not a loss, you are a blind woman who has given birth to a child, and you may end up on the streets outside." ”
Huihui bit her lip and stood in front of everyone, only to feel as if she was not wearing clothes, her whole body was stiff, her heart was angry and hateful, she groaned for a long time, she raised her head, straightened her back and said: "Today's debt really can't be delayed any longer." ”
She wiped the tears on her face, straightened her messy hair, touched the edge of the couch along the wall, sat down with her hand on the couch, turned her head and raised her chin, and said slowly: "If you want money, help me invite the grandmother of the Liu family." ”
The Liu family, who doesn't know who doesn't know, said to be a good family, who ushered in and sent to high-ranking officials and nobles?
What people have in their hearts is that they are a secret prostitute.
