Chapter 44: Selling Himself to Bury His Father (2)

On the muddy ground in front of the City God Temple, a broken mat was laid out, and a skinny old man, half-eyed, lying straight and erect on it.

Alas, seeing that this old man's face was pale and full of death, he must have been the old father who had died.

Nearby, a girl in a white linen mourning dress had a straw stuck in her head, knelt beside her, and sobbed.

I thought about it, the girls who sold themselves to bury their fathers in the play book have the appearance of Xi Shi and Diao Chan, I don't know whether it is fortunate or unfortunate, when they sold their bodies, they were looked at by a few hooligans, and they were about to rob away, at this time, the crowd must stand up in due time for a handsome and dashing young man, this young man not only beat away the hooligans to relieve the girl, but also gave her the silver to bury her deceased father, the girl had nothing to repay, but had to make a promise......

However, this time, well, this girl's appearance is really mediocre, and it will be difficult to sell it.

Alas, it is also the decline of the world, the fathers and villagers of Jinling are ruthless, and when they see such a tragedy, they just look around and point around, look at the excitement, and do not see a kind-hearted person who helps each other.

Therefore, my heart immediately felt so compassionate.

I sighed again, quietly touched two peanut-sized South Sea pearls from my purse, wrapped them tightly with a handkerchief, and handed them to the girl: "Girl, you quickly pick up and bury your old father." ”

The girl shuddered, pulled her sleeve and wiped her tears, and looked up at me in disbelief.

Her cheeks were red and shy, and her eyes were full of affection.

I was slightly stunned and looked down at my chic men's clothes.

No, my Ye Rong's appearance is actually eaten by both men and women? First the white-faced scholar in that town, and then the girl who sold herself to bury her father?

Alas, as the saying goes, filial piety comes first, and so does this girl, her father died, so she looked at a ...... with affection and shyness infinitely Well, a man is not very good after all, right?

I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart, and I half-covered my mouth with my left hand, cleared my throat, and took the handkerchief in my right hand and handed it to the girl.

The girl lowered her eyes, took the veil with a red face, turned sideways and opened it carefully.

After a while, she seemed to be stiff, and then she turned sharply and kowtowed to me: "The son is very kind, and the little woman is ......."

When I landed, everyone's eyes were on me, and after a while they began to point at me and whisper.

Alas, although I, Ye Rong, like the attention of everyone, I don't want people to gossip!

I hurriedly lowered my body, covered my mouth and coughed lightly, and whispered, "Don't be so ...... girl"

The girl raised her head and said a little shyly: "With this, the little girl can bury her deceased father, even if the little woman is a slave and a maid, a cow and a horse, she must repay the great kindness of the son, and the son has bought the little woman's ......"

Oh, it's not good, after she mentioned it, I suddenly woke up, other girls are going to sell themselves! I just pulled out two beads, this girl doesn't think I bought her intentionally, right?

Alas, I did a good deed with good intentions, but I caused such a trouble, alas......

If this is seen by Senior Brother Jiu, he will not die of laughter?

Hey, why didn't he say anything this time?

I turned around in a panic to find Senior Brother Jiu.

Fortunately, fortunately, there is no shadow of Senior Brother Nine around here, so I have to quickly withdraw from here.

I got up and said solemnly, "Don't misunderstand...... girl"

Before I could finish speaking, I suddenly heard a voice say coldly: "Your old father is not dead, what are you selling?" ”
