Chapter 046: Rumors of the Town
Nie Shuyao was a little heartbroken, what a good girl, why was she sold to others as a child daughter-in-law?
"Aunt Niu, then Yuqin's mother just watched her daughter being sold?" Nie Shuyao frowned.
Aunt Niu sighed again, "Yuqin Niang is really pitiful, she was knocked to the ground by Chunliu's father with a palm, and she fainted on the spot." That Xing matchmaker is really a sin! ”
Nie Shuyao also knew that Yuqin's remarriage was all caused by Xing's mouth, but she always felt that she couldn't live up to the promise she made to Yuqin.
"If only I had bought their siblings earlier."
"Oh, that's true, no wonder Yuqin would say that." Aunt Niu shook her head and said.
Nie Shuyao thought about it and felt that she had to go and see that family, otherwise she would become ill sooner or later, and said, "Can Aunt Niu accompany me to her house to have a look?" Want to find out what the hell is going on. ”
Aunt Niu said: "This is easy to say, it is also appropriate for neighbors to go and see." I heard that Yuqin Niang was so sick that she couldn't get up, so the tiger head kid got her some food, alas! Poor thing. ”
"Aunt Niu, please wait a moment, I'll go change my clothes and come."
Nie Shuyao changed into a coarse cloth jacket skirt that was washed a little white, brought a few ready-made snacks, and finally instructed Tianxi a few words, and then went out with Aunt Niu.
Along the way, Aunt Niu was saying, how pitiful Yuqin Niang is.
In Nie Shuyao's impression, she didn't remember what this person looked like, but she only knew that their family had not had a good time in the past two years.
Their house and Yuqin's house are equal to one street and one alley, and in the middle is Aunt Niu's house. And Aunt Niu's house and Yuqin's house are not separated by a wall, and there is a family with a foundation separated by it, but there is no house, and it has become a world of firewood and straw.
When the two knocked on the door, it took a long time for Chun Liu's scolding voice to come.
She slammed open the door and said impatiently, "Who? ”
But when she saw Nie Shuyao, her face immediately burst into laughter, and she squirmed: "It's Sister Shuyao, what kind of wind blew you here, please come in." ”
Nie Shuyao and Aunt Niu glanced at each other, and they really didn't have a good impression of this Chunliu.
"Oh, Sister Shuyao, what kind of gift do you want to bring when you come!" When Chunliu saw the bamboo basket in Nie Shuyao's hand, she stepped forward and thought about carrying it in her hand.
Nie Shuyao flashed and made her pounce and asked, "What about Yuqin?" ”
This action made Chunliu's face immediately droop, and he said in a low voice: "That little slut is happy." ”
At this moment, Huzi ran out of a broken room, grabbed the corner of Nie Shuyao's clothes and cried, "Sister Shuyao, why did you come." My sister was taken away by them, saying that she was sold to people in the mountains as a child daughter-in-law, woo! My mother was also beaten to death. ”
Nie Shuyao took out a handkerchief and wiped his face, this wipe was black, and said softly: "Huzi doesn't cry, take us to see your mother." ”
"Hmm." Huzi glared at Chunliu fiercely, and pulled Nie Shuyao and Aunt Niu into a side room.
"Mother, Sister Shu Yao has come to see you."
This wing house is located in the west, although it is already a warm spring, but when you walk into this house, you still feel a cold, and there is a damp musty smell.
"Who?" A weak voice came.
Huzi walked to the bed and said, "It's Sister Shu Yao, my sister said it, Sister Shu Yao will definitely be able to save us." ”
"Really?" The voice suddenly became much more powerful.
Nie Shuyao saw the thin woman lying on the bed struggling to get up, and she and Aunt Niu hurriedly stepped forward to help her up.
This is a yellow-faced, skinny woman, no matter how beautiful she used to look, but now she can't look at it at all.
Yuqin Niang held Nie Shuyao's hand with a cold hand and pleaded: "Please save my two children, it's not good for me." They attracted wolves, but they are right, let me bear all the faults, please save them! Huzi, kowtow to Miss Shu Yao, you will be a member of their family in the future. Fast! ”
Huzi also understood the strictness of the matter, and immediately knelt down and said, "Sister Shuyao, accept me." I don't want to be sold like my sister, and when I grow up, I have to earn a lot of money to redeem my sister in the mountains. ”
"Get up, get up. Tell me what the hell is going on. Nie Shuyao hurriedly helped him up.
In the crying of Huzi and Yuqinniang, Nie Shuyao understood the general situation of the matter.
It turned out that when Yuqin came back to discuss with her mother about being a maid for Nie Shuyao, her mother agreed, but Chunliu heard this. Chunliu knew, and his father knew.
Originally, Chunliu's father was planning to ask Nie Shuyao for a lot of silver, but Chunliu's words made him change his attention.
Chunliu said that she was going to marry Nie Tianxi in the future, how could there be a sister who was a slave in the family!
So Chunliu's father made another plan, and in order to repay the debt, he asked Xing Matchmaker's wife to find a mother-in-law for Yuqin and collected five taels of silver. It is equivalent to selling her cheaply, and she was sold to a family in the mountains as a child daughter-in-law.
"Damn!" Hearing this, Nie Shuyao was furious, and sneered outside the door: "What is she Chunliu herself?" Also married to my family Xi'er, just her? I'm not qualified to be a maid. Put away this heart that you shouldn't have, or I'll let you know what it means to think about it! ”
She knew that Chunliu was lying in front of the door eavesdropping, and Nie Shuyao said this on purpose.
"Well said. Today's Tianxi is a child, even if it is not, we will not look for such a father and daughter who are not clear, who knows what it is. Bah! Aunt Niu also echoed on the side.
With a sigh of relief, Nie Shuyao suddenly felt that something was wrong, she was not annoyed when she left, but they were still living here.
The tiger head didn't know the danger at all, nodded heavily, clenched his small fist and said, "Miss Shu Yao said it too well. ”
Yuqin Niang also coughed a few times and said, "Don't worry about us, I can't die for the time being." If I don't open my mouth, the county government will not transfer this house to them, Miss Shuyao can rest assured. As for the tiger head, can you let him stay with me for a while longer. ”
Nie Shuyao nodded, took out a string of money and handed it to her, but was pushed by Yuqin Niang, and said with a wry smile: "Don't give me the silver money, this money can't reach me." If you can, leave it to me. ”
"Okay, I'll keep it for Tiger Head and Parsley. Don't worry, I'll ransom her when I find out where Yuqin is sold. Nie Shuyao assured.
She really pitied the mother and son, as well as the sensible Yuqin. Although her current strength is still very weak, she can still save her two children from the sea of suffering.
Looking at the snacks they brought after eating, Nie Shuyao and Aunt Niu planned to go back.
When I walked out of the wing, I saw the father and daughter of Chunliu standing in front of the door of the hall.
Chunliu pouted and glanced at Nie Shuyao aggrievedly, his eyes were full of disbehement, but Chunliu's father looked at them with a look of anger.
Nie Shuyao saw violence in him, a thin bamboo pole body with a ruthlessness that did not match, and at a glance, he knew that this person was not a good stubble.
Others may be afraid, but she Nie Shuyao is not afraid, if you can't come to the light, you can come to the dark, and the kung fu that Nie taught them hasn't fallen yet.
"Shu Yao, hurry up!" Aunt Niu was a little scared, and pulled Nie Shuyao to leave quickly.
This made Nie Shuyao swallow the words that wanted to ask where Yuqin was, and then think of a way.
When he returned home, he told Nie Tianxi about it, saying that he wanted to eliminate the harm for the people immediately. was slapped hard by Nie Shuyao on his hand, "Xi'er, you can't be impulsive in everything. This is a problem, it has to be changed! ”
"Sister, Xi'er knows. That's also Xi'er has a chivalrous heart, I'm just saying. Otherwise, let's go and beat up Chunliu Daddy. He said.
"No! This is not to be mentioned again until it is absolutely necessary. Nie Shuyao denied, she forgot that she was still thinking about beating people just now.
The next day, Nie Shuyao went to the two shops and told the shopkeeper about it, asking them to pay attention to the people coming and going. Whether it is a pharmacy or a cloth shop, there is a large flow of people, and it is the best place to inquire about news.
But almost half a month has passed, and there is still no sand breath from Yuqin. On this day, Nie Shuyao stayed in the Su Weaving Workshop for a while, but heard Xiao Shunzi talk about another thing.
That is, Landlord Li, who was in the gossip a month ago, has become the protagonist again. This time, it was his concubine who had just been taken back, but she was beaten half to death and returned.
However, the landlord Li returned the person with the front foot, and the Xiao Zheng butcher from the back foot went to propose marriage. The little concubine is Xiao Zheng's butcher's former sweetheart, and when she was sent back, she only had one breath left. But Erya's father took Xiao Zheng's butcher five taels of silver and sold it again, and he really didn't even let Erya in the door.
Nie Shuyao sighed lightly: "Another poor woman." ”
"However, I heard that the Xiao Zheng butcher no longer talked about Landlord Li when he killed pigs, and now he has changed to someone else." Xiao Shunzi gossiped again.
