8 Human trafficking
For a moment, Miao Cuihua even wondered if Liu Hehua had bad intentions and poisoned Cuifeng when she was not at home.
After all, she is a daughter who will eventually marry out, but Cuifeng is the real eldest son.
But she quickly overturned her speculation - even if Liu Hehua had that mind, I am afraid she would not have the courage. However, if you don't dare to ask for Cuifeng's life, will you sell Cuifeng while no one is around? But it seems impossible, Cuifeng is ten years old after all, and she has repeatedly told her that it is impossible to honestly be at the mercy of others, and it is impossible for Liu Hehua to sell Cuifeng quietly.
"You said that boy, you go east, I see that he doesn't know who he is with or who he is looking for, and he goes all the way east."
Finally, Miao Cuihua inquired about Cuifeng's whereabouts from a person's mouth, and hurriedly quickened her pace and continued to walk east.
After walking a distance, she saw a circle of people at the mouth of an alley in front of her, talking to each other and not knowing what they were talking about.
It can't be Cuifeng, right?
A shadow suddenly clouded her heart, and Miao Cuihua ran over there.
But in just seven or eight days, she has truly regarded this younger brother as her own relative.
Perhaps, it's because of the sense of dependence. Here, Cuifeng is the only person who really treats her with heart, and she is also the only pillar of Cuifeng.
As soon as she ran out of the crowd, Miao Cuihua heard the noise inside, which was indeed Cuifeng's voice. Listening to the sound was quite loud, and there was not much of an abnormality, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, it was a bit difficult to squeeze in, how could her twelve-year-old body stand against those adults over twenty.
"Hey, Aunt Zhang, your money bag fell to the ground, and the silver ingot fell to the ground!"
Who is so willful and walks around the streets with a bag of silver ingots?
Taking advantage of the fact that a group of people looked down for silver ingots, Miao Cuihua hurriedly arched left and right and squeezed in.
It was Miao Cuifeng inside.
Not only Miao Cuifeng, but also one person who is quite familiar.
"Aunt Peach Blossom? What are you doing here? Miao Cuihua glared at the woman who was holding Miao Cuifeng's collar, and glared at Miao Cuifeng who was a little afraid to look at herself. Forget it, first unanimously to the outside world, licking her lips, she stepped forward and grabbed Miao Cuifeng, and said with a smile: "Aunt Peach Blossom, you are an elder, Cuifeng, this kid has always been honest, and he can't offend people lightly, even if he really offends you, he doesn't have to beat him ruthlessly, right?" ”
Ruthless? Liu Taohua gritted her teeth, she hadn't done it yet, if she really did, she would have beaten this kid stupidly.
Seeing that Liu Taohua still refused to let go, Miao Cuihua gently grinded her teeth, do you think that my brother will become a handsome guy in the future, so you are taking advantage of it in advance? After looking Liu Taohua up and down, she suddenly grabbed Miao Cuifeng and asked, "What's the matter, where did she hit you, where did you hurt?" ”
Miao Cuifeng was stunned for a moment, and immediately grabbed Miao Cuihua's arm and cried: "Sister, I hurt, she pinched me!" It hurts me to death......"
Good boy, it's not in vain that I teach you on weekdays, this pinch is just a blink of an eye, even if no one sees it, it can be said.
"Nonsense!" Liu Taohua immediately let go of her hand, pointed at Miao Cuifeng's nose and scolded, "Dead rabbit cub, don't lie to me, I'll pull you, when did I pinch you?" ”
"Who knows if you're pulling or pinching?" Miao Cuihua quickly retorted, and at the same time pulled Miao Cuifeng behind her, wiped her tears, turned around and cried to the crowd of onlookers, "She has always looked at our sister and brother unpleasantly, and this time I don't know why she came to trouble my brother, but my brother is only ten years old, and he was bullied by her like this...... We...... We...... God really doesn't leave us with any way to live! ”
After all, this is not Fulu Hutong or Baifu Street, but Xihuan Street, Miao Cuihua's sister and brother are no different from strangers here, and some people wondered about the relationship between them and Liu Hehua.
Liu Taohua's face became more and more ugly, and from the discussion of everyone, she only felt that the situation was becoming more and more unfavorable.
Before she could explain, Miao Cuihua helped her speak first.
"Her name is Liu Taohua, and she is my stepmother's sister-in-law, that is, my father's sister-in-law, who lives in Zhaojia Alley, Shuangxi Street." Before I came through, I read novels all day long and brushed funny jokes, and after I came through, I followed Miao Fugui to set up a stall to sell food, Miao Cuihua's mouth was very neat, "I've been widowed for a year, and I love to run to my house when I'm idle, and I don't know what she always comes to do." Seeing that my brother and I are not pleasing to the eye, I wish that our sister and brother would jump into the well and die immediately. I wondered, even if my sister and brother were in the way, it would be in the way of our stepmother's eyes, I really don't know where to offend her. To say that she is just for our stepmother, but I don't look like it, although since the stepmother gave birth to a new brother, she doesn't like to take care of us, and my father doesn't care about us, but the stepmother hasn't beaten us and scolded us, I really don't know what kind of vinegar Aunt Peach Blossom eats. Let's talk about a widowed sister-in-law who runs to her sister's house all day long, washing clothes for her brother-in-law......"
Tsk, the story that has to be told between this brother-in-law and sister-in-law is very exciting.
Miao Cuihua didn't feel that there was anything wrong with pouring dirty water on her nominal father's head, in her heart, Miao Fugui was just Miao Fugui, not her father.
Seeing that everyone was talking about it, Liu Hehua was anxious, she still planned to remarry, if there was any story, who would she marry?
It's just that before she could speak, Miao Cuifeng had already spoken out: "Sister, Aunt Peach Blossom is going to sell you!" I just came home from buying medicine, and I saw her at the intersection discussing with a mother-in-law to sell you! ”
Sold her? Miao Cuihua was stunned, she only thought that Liu Taohua had met Cuifeng and deliberately made trouble with Cuifeng, but she didn't expect that there was this layer inside, and suddenly sneered and looked at Liu Taohua: "Aunt Taohua, even if you look at me as an eyesore, if you want to sell it, it will be your sister and my stepmother Liu Lotus to sell me, when will it be your turn?" ”
Liu Taohua finally seized the opportunity to speak, waved his hand vigorously and said: "Don't listen to this kid's nonsense, how dare I sell you, his little man doesn't understand anything, and he doesn't know what it means." ”
"What does that mean exactly?" Miao Cuihua shrugged her shoulders and gritted her teeth gently.
She almost forgot that this was an ancient world with no human rights, and parents didn't have to consult anyone about selling their children. If Liu Hehua's pillow wind blows down Miao Fugui, it is indeed not difficult to sell her and Cuifeng.
Maybe she won't sell her, after all, she is twelve, and she will be able to mix up the bride price if she marries in two years. But Cuifeng is only ten years old, and he is a son, so it is hard to guarantee whether Liu Lotus will have this thought. As for Miao Fugui, there is a great fortune anyway, and Liu Lotus is not unable to continue to give birth, he is not afraid of the end.
After thinking about this, her expression became even more grim.
There will never be a day, neither she nor Cuifeng will be bought and sold like livestock.
"Sister, I just heard that she discussed with that mother-in-law and wanted to exchange you for money!" Miao Cuifeng was anxious, he was afraid that Liu Taohua would go back and say that he had moved that woman, and he would really sell his sister.
"Nonsense, nonsense, nonsense!" Liu Taohua is also anxious, she wants to be famous, but she wants to be famous by her beauty and virtuousness, but it is not an anecdote between her sister-in-law and her brother-in-law, if she doesn't break it up, I'm afraid she will have to be widowed at home for a few years. After a few big gasps, she calmed down and said: "Cuifeng, this kid is an acute child, and I don't know what gossip I heard three or two words, so I remembered it in a hurry." Don't be ashamed of what you said, in fact, I told your mother about you, thinking that you are also twelve years old this year, and seeing that you are getting older day by day, it is time to consider your family affairs, so I casually asked people if there are any good people, and I can make plans as soon as possible......"
Without waiting for Liu Taohua to finish speaking, Miao Cuifeng directly snorted her: "Give my sister to be a concubine, why don't you go by yourself?" Bah! ”
Liu Taohua gritted her teeth, why didn't she go? If she were six years younger, it would be up to her to see if she went!
