Chapter 53: Selling People
Hua Yu looked sideways, this girl has been cheating and tricky in the past, of course she is not stupid, and she is not cowardly. She was afraid? Afraid of what?
"What are you afraid of?"
Hua Xiang'er only looked down at the bun and was silent for a while.
Hua Yu said impatiently: "If you don't say it, you won't say it, when I rarely know it." ”
Hua Xianger pinched the meat bun, it was so white and soft.
"I'm afraid... Grandmother sold me. ”
"What?" This is really inexplicable, Hua Yu felt ridiculous, and said with a strange smile: "You are her own granddaughter, how can she sell you?" If my family hasn't been divided yet, it would be better to sell me-" Hua Yu's face changed: "No, what do you mean by that?" ”
Hua Xiang'er twitched, didn't dare to look up at her, only stared at the meat buns: "Before... That one... Grandmother... Said... Sell... Sell..."
"Sell whom?" Hua Yu had an ominous premonition in her heart.
"Sell, sell, sell... You..."
"What?" Flower rain fried hair.
After Hua Xiang'er said the word "you", she breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that it was not so difficult to speak, so she simply said it all.
"That's it, that time... Your sister stole it, no, the time your sister was locked up for a few days... I heard my grandmother and sister-in-law discuss, saying that they would throw your sister into the field, and they would sell you to the county seat as a maid..."
Hua Yu's gritted teeth clicked: "It's really a good plan, I have a father and a mother, how dare the old woman?" ”
Hua Xiang'er glanced at her, your father, can you resist?
Hua Yu was suddenly deflated, and her father and mother would definitely be unwilling, but if the old woman pouted with the old man Hua to agree, she really couldn't say.
But—
"Isn't she ashamed to sell her granddaughter?"
"But your sister stole first..."
Hua Yu immediately understood, this was to make her family's reputation stink, no matter how she tossed, the people in the village would only say that her own atmosphere was not good, but it could not implicate the Li family?
Think beautifully!
If she really dared to do that, she would not be able to do what she wanted.
Hua Yu's eyes rolled: "It's so decent, why does the old woman want to sell me?" ”
Hua Xiang'er hesitated: "It was said that it was to save a dowry for my sister-in-law." ”
Hua Yu was so angry, she sold her granddaughter to marry her daughter, and this deal really didn't accompany her.
"By the way, I forgot, I should have asked you a long time ago, why did my sister run to the upper room to steal something? That's impossible. Is there something going on here? ”
Hua Xiang'er's eyes dodged.
Hua Yu narrowed her eyes.
"You, your sister, your sister is hungry, I heard that there is food in the upper room, and there is silver that can be exchanged for good food, so I went..."
Hua Yu narrowed her eyes even more: "Is this a set for my sister?" ”
Hua Xiang'er didn't speak.
"Did you tell my sister?"
Hua Xianger was still silent.
Hua Yu asked a few more times, but still didn't get a reply. Hua Xiang'er suddenly cried out.
Do you still need to ask? There must be something about her.
was so angry that Hua Yu split his head and covered his face and grabbed the bun: "I'm still thinking about you." ”
Hua Xiang'er cried breathlessly: "My sister-in-law said that I was not going, so she asked my grandmother to sell me." ”
"You-" Hua Yu stomped her feet, ignored her, and ran home. Before he ran, he stuffed the bun back again.
Hua Xiang'er was dumbfounded holding the bun, why did she say it all? What if Hua Yu ran home and said that the family would come to the Li family to settle accounts and tell themselves? Li still has to kill himself.
After a cold war, he hurriedly ran home with his bun in his hand.
Zhang just wiped his head and face with a cold sweat towel for Hua Changguang, and Hua Changguang hissed comfortably.
With a bang, Hua Xiang'er ran in, plunged into Zhang's arms, and cried with her mouth open, but she was afraid that Li would hear and ask, and she didn't dare to make a sound. Tears fell like torrential rain, but there was no movement, which made people look so weird.
Zhang panicked and hurriedly straightened her body: "Xiang'er, Xiang'er, what's wrong with you?" What's wrong with your throat? Why can't you make a sound? ”
Hua Changguang also stretched forward in fright. Can't speak? That's a big deal. It's only been a few days since then, why did something happen again?
Hua Xiang'er cried too violently, burping violently, uh.
Zhang's face turned white, is he really dumb? Break her mouth open and look at her tongue.
Hua Xiang'er sobbed: "Mother, mother, I, I didn't, no, uh, thing, uh." ”
was so angry that Zhang slapped her on the back, "It's okay to scare your mother to death." ”
Hua Changguang also stared.
Hua Xiang'er couldn't stop her tears from falling: "Mother, I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I don't want to be sold as a maid." ”
Zhang Shi heard it inexplicably: "Maid? What do you say? Why can't my mother understand? Don't cry, make it clear. As he spoke, his face fell, isn't his own family being calculated again?
Hua Xiang'er tried to stabilize her breath and explained the matter.
Zhang and Hua Changguang were stunned when they heard this, they didn't know that there were still these things here.
Zhang gritted his teeth in hatred: "Did you hear that?" Your mother forced that family to die so much that her wife couldn't be separated, no wonder our family made such a fuss. Can someone else's mother let her go? I don't have to bother you guys. ”
Hua Changguang's face is not good-looking, and he doesn't know if it's for the Li family or for himself.
"Mother, you say, will Hua Yu bring her father and mother to settle accounts? You don't know that Hua Yun is scary, and he threw the second brother into the river with one hand. ”
Hua Changguang and Zhang's were also stunned, and after a long silence, Hua Changguang said: "No." After all, things have passed, and they are all divided, and looking at his family's situation, he doesn't want to be involved here anymore..."
Talking and talking, Hua Changguang didn't know what it tasted like. The people who had to look at their faces to eat suddenly broke free from the rope and flew out, and the better, and then looked at their own chickens, flying dogs, and jumping a lot of things all day, I can't tell whether it is regret or jealousy, it is very complicated.
Zhang poked Hua Xiang'er with his finger and said, "What are you afraid of, why haven't you learned a little bit from your mother?" What's your business? Yes? It was your grandmother and sister-in-law's bad idea, and we didn't have to suffer from it. Okay, it's better to come and find it, and it's better to report to the official. Let the official master arrest those with black intestines and rotten livers. ”
Because of the successive accidents of the people in the second room, Zhang's temper swished, and he only dared to mutter these words in his heart before, how dare he let Hua Changguang hear them.
Hua Changguang felt bad, after all, it was his own mother and sister, so he had to defend it: "Okay, keep talking." ”
Zhang sneered: "Did someone leave it for you?" Didn't you hear Xiang'er say, people are going to sell the old man's own granddaughter, your own niece, to exchange the dowry for her own little daughter. Hua Changguang, aren't you proud that you are your mother's eldest son? Why don't you know this? Didn't she get money to supplement you and marry your eldest son? ”
Hua Changguang was speechless.
Zhang then sneered: "You are still protecting." Your mother only has the youngest son in her heart, and the queue is also the third son, the second son, and the grandchildren of the two rooms. In our family, the son is not a son, the grandson is not a grandson, and people are not distressed. You can't move, Shunfeng is always injured, see how much silver she gave you? ”
It can't be said that he didn't give anything, the eggs at home are good food, and the Li family didn't stop Hua Changguang from eating. However, it is the same for those rooms, in this comparison, the Zhang family, who feels that his family has suffered a big crime, naturally feels that the Li family does not have a big house in his heart.
"It's all your unconscious sister-in-law, why don't you get married, you don't have to harm your mother's family. I have a bad reputation for her all my life, so can I see that she said good to me? Okay, it's no wonder, the little white-eyed wolf actually asked our family Xiang'er to carry the black pot for her early behind my back. Hmph, I want to make a good name for doing evil, I really deserve it..."
Zhang scolded and scolded, and suddenly saw Hua Xiang'er staring at her without blinking, and stopped in time. But the more I thought about it, the more angry I became, and then I thought of Hua Changnian's family, and suddenly said angrily: "It's a big deal to split up, I don't serve anymore." ”
What? Hua Changguang was stunned.
"Separation? Don't even think about it. ”
As soon as Zhang's words came out, he regretted it: "I just said that the two sons of our family are not married, even if they want to split up, they have to wait for their daughter-in-law to enter the door." ”
Hua Changguang thought of something else: "Hmph, points? Don't even think about it, there are so many things going on at home, what loss do you see in the fourth room? After burning a few broken books, he turned around and bought more. Who has the family given to the land they have sold every year? Not all of them have been thrown into the bottomless hole of the fourth room. How much of those lands should I share as the eldest son? Split up, there will be nothing to do here in the future. ”
Zhang squeezed his eyes, and asked hesitantly: "I don't understand this study, tell me, can his fourth uncle win?" ”
If you are a talent in the exam, you don't have to pay the grain tax, how much grain can you leave in a year, it is still good food.
Hua Changguang pondered: "I can't figure it out either." However, the fourth child must be more anxious than anyone else, and it is naturally good to be admitted, but if he can't be admitted... He had to be made to vomit. Anyway, if it's going well, you're going to find relatives, and of course the dowry has to be kilometers away, so our family won't delay things. ”
Zhang thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn't figure out the matter of reading, but he also put it aside and married his daughter-in-law first.
Hua Xianger listened for a long time, and understood a lot, seeing that the two of them stopped talking, hesitated again and again, thought of what happened when she had heat stroke, and took out the bun.
"Dad, mother, this is given to me by Hua Yu, give it to my brother and younger brothers."
The two looked at each other, such two big buns could top two fists. It's still white-faced, and one of them has already taken a few bites.
Zhang took the one that was bitten, and said suspiciously: "Doesn't she have any bad intentions, right?" He broke it open a little and looked at it, and exclaimed: "It's all meat, so his family is really developed." ”
Hua Changguang couldn't do it in his heart: "Can it be underdeveloped?" Such a large plot of land. ”
Zhang suddenly said without a head and a brain: "Is it that your family's feng shui is not good, why is his family okay as soon as it is separated?" ”
was so angry that Hua Changguang glared: "If you have the strength to fight the two big tigers, we will immediately divide them, what do you want." ”
Zhang muttered unconvinced, and couldn't hear what it was. I looked down and saw that Hua Xiang'er was still staring at the meat in the bun, and thought for a while: "When your brothers come back, you can eat together." ”
Hua Xiang'er swallowed her saliva, nodded, and was about to go out.
Hua Changguang suddenly ordered: "In the future, if Hua Yu wants to play with you, you will go." ”
Hua Xiang'er didn't understand a little, but still nodded obediently.
Zhang was puzzled: "What do you mean?" ”
Hua Changguang touched his chin: "Don't look at Hua Yu's usual appearance as a cannonball, she actually followed her father's soft-hearted temperament, and she knew to come to see Xiang'er." Alas, as the old saying goes, ten years in Hedong, ten years in Hexi, maybe one day there will be a time to ask for others. ”
Zhang's face immediately became bitter: "It's all like that, I don't have the face to go..."
Hua Changguang laughed: "Adults don't get involved in children's affairs. This means that adults can't be involved in children's affairs.
Zhang's is not very optimistic, and his own children have bullied the four of others, especially the fool Huayun.
"Okay, don't be in a daze, hurry up and get cold water to wipe my back, this time it's another layer of sweat."
Zhang's eyes rolled his eyes angrily, and while wiping his back, he taught him a lesson: "Look at you and your mother, if you can't move, it's not my daughter-in-law who serves you, but she's here to feed you." ”
