Chapter 2: Coming Back

"Tsk, look at this little appearance, that family of crooked melons and cracked dates, it's not easy to give birth to such a beautiful little girl!"

A man in his forties, with a slightly regretful smile on his face, sighed and took his rough hand and pinched it on a delicate snow-white flour surface.

Lying flat on the bottom of the carriage was a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old, very thin, with a slightly dull yellow face, but very delicate features, she was lying unconscious with her eyes closed, and her breathing was soft and shallow.

Xu is the big man's hands were too rough, and it stung the girl, and her eyelashes flickered twice, and they opened suddenly.

There was a buzz in her head, Hongchen was sore and groggy, and she vaguely saw the black roof of the car and the two men who were staring at her with wide eyes, and she couldn't help but smile bitterly...... Everyone says that before people die, they will recall the experiences of their lives, and she is now about on the verge of death.

It's just that she didn't expect that she would have such a deep memory of the thing that once brought her endless suffering?

She thought she wished she could forget it forever.

For a moment, I was in a trance, and suddenly I felt a chill on my calves, and the numbness and swishing sensation rose from the center of my feet all the way to my back.

The feeling of coldness makes people feel like they are in water.

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and get to work."

A slightly young man sitting on the right frowned when he saw Hongchen open his eyes, carefully took out a red pill, lifted Hongchen's head with one hand, pinched her chin, and pinched her mouth open.

The sudden pain instantly brought Hongchen back to his senses.

Yes, when she was fourteen years old, she asked two traffickers to sell her to Qingqing and Lou, but fortunately, her father chased after her, so she didn't fall into the fire pit, but because she was redeemed from the building, her reputation was ruined, and she couldn't hold her head up for the rest of her life......

Although she later asked a barefoot doctor to check her body, she didn't find anything wrong, but Hongchen still instinctively didn't want to eat this thing, shrank back, bit her lip hard, and raised some strength, she sat up violently and grabbed a blue-black dagger wrapped around her calf, and poked viciously at the arm of the man who was holding her.

"Whew!"

The man bared his teeth in pain, and the medicine in his hand suddenly fell, he was shocked and hurriedly lowered his head to take it.

Taking advantage of this moment, Hongchen threw himself towards the car door.

"Catch her, can't let her run."

The young man clasped his arm with one hand, his face turned dark when he saw this, and he said angrily.

The other one is obviously also blinded, the things explained by the master have not been done, if this girl escapes, he simply don't go back, and it is happy to be killed directly, thinking of this, he can't think about it much, and pounces on it, but he didn't expect that Hongchen is not as flexible as a weak girl, and he is also bold, so he can't see it well, and he directly broke through the window and rolled down.

The carriage has not yet left the village.

It's spring ploughing season.

Outside, in the fields, there were many farmers and peasant women bending over to work.

Hearing the commotion, many people straightened up and looked around.

Seeing two big men jumping down and pounced on a girl who was rolling on the ground and covered in dirt, they were all very surprised.

Hongchen sighed, and while running desperately, he shouted loudly: "Help, they are human traffickers, human traffickers are coming!" ”

This voice was earth-shattering, and everyone was vigilant.

"Hey, isn't that the second girl of Jiang's blacksmith family?"

Seeing that it was an acquaintance, several farmers hurriedly grabbed the guy in their hands and quickly gathered around here.

Jiang Jiazhuang just lost two children last month, and the children's father and mother are still in pain, and everyone hates human traffickers so much that they are killed directly when they see them.

It's the same this time.

The two of them looked at each other, their faces changed, and they rushed over to catch Hongchen, but she was holding a dagger, and she still had a bit of discipline, and she couldn't hold it for a while.

And the villagers have already flocked to it.

As soon as they heard that they were human traffickers, and when they saw that these two people dared to commit murder, the villagers were filled with righteous indignation, picked up their shovels and beat them on their heads and faces.

The two men have some skills, but they are just ordinary thugs on the street, bullying the weak and the young, so that a group of villagers who are five big and three rough, who are used to doing farm work, will not be able to resist after a while, and their heads and arms are full of injuries.

After being beaten again, I was afraid that I would really be beaten to death, and the two of them finally couldn't stand it, and one of the men shouted loudly: "Misunderstanding, we are not human traffickers, stop, stop, it was this girl's mother who sold her to us, really, stop it!" ”

As soon as the two of them shouted, the surrounding villagers were a little surprised, hesitated slightly, and eased their hands.

Hongchen gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, you obviously want to sell me to the building, how can my mother be so ruthless?" ”

As she spoke, her tears rolled down: "My younger brother wants to study, I said that I would go to Wang Yuanwai's house to work to help the family, and my father agreed, besides, forcing good people to become prostitutes is a felony in our big Zhou, and those who want to cut off their heads are not allowed to ...... How could my mother be, how could I ......"

She spoke extremely quickly, not giving the two men a chance to refute at all.

A group of villagers were surprised when they heard this, and they all frowned, obviously believing that the girl who grew up in their own village was ready to move the farm tools in their hands again.

"Don't say anything, take the people down and send them to the government."

"Yes, arrest it first."

Crowd sentiment surged.

The faces of the two men changed suddenly.

If they are really sent to the government, the master above their heads will definitely not allow them to live, maybe it will be worse than death.

The two of them glanced at each other, and one of the men hurriedly took out a piece of paper from his arms and said loudly: "Don't, don't, this is the deed of sale signed by the girl's mother, you can take a look." ”

As he spoke, he held up the paper to show the people around him, how illiterate the villagers were, or this man read it aloud: "Black and white, clear, we really bought this girl." ”

As soon as the deed of sale came out, Hongchen seemed to be stupid, knelt on the ground, cried bitterly, and stumbled and cried: "It's not true, my mother won't sell me to the building, I must have been deceived." ”

But there was a clear hesitation in the words.

The surrounding villagers were hesitant and a little unbearable.

Hongchen gritted his teeth, raised his head, and showed a tear-dappled face: "Uncle, uncle, you help me find my father, if my father has to sell me, I, I can only die here, anyway, I won't go!" ”

An old man in his fifties who led the way sighed, looked up and said, "We don't know if your deed of sale is true or false, besides, it's all men who are in charge, what can the second girl do?" ”

"That's it, wait for Blacksmith Jiang to come."

Hongchen's father Jiang Zhuang is a blacksmith, although he is a craftsman, but he is also a good family in the village, Jiang Jiazhuang is in good weather, even if the year is bad, it is a big deal to not eat much oil and water, but he can still support his children, and he will not sell his children.

Jiang Zhuang is an honest person, everyone knows it.

The villagers also hugged together to protect their shortcomings, compared to strangers, they must protect Hongchen, so when they made a fuss, Hongchen breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that this first hurdle should have passed.

Although she was probably in a dream at this moment.
