53 Here are the words
"Sir, let's go and see, something seems to have happened!" When Zhu Yujiao heard this, she immediately suggested to Zhang Mingwei.
Zhang Mingwei listened and nodded, in fact, it is also in front, no matter whether it is fast or not, it will be seen soon anyway.
I saw a group of people around the city gate, including soldiers guarding the city, and people in ordinary clothes, all of whom were watching the excitement.
When Li Ruolian saw it, he immediately signaled his two subordinates to overtake Zhang Mingwei and Zhu Yujiao by one horse head on the left and one on the right, and look at the front to prevent accidents. And he himself also got close to some Zhang Mingwei and Zhu Yujiao.
Zhang Mingwei They were sitting on horses, relatively tall, so although they were on the periphery of the crowd, they could still see the situation inside.
I saw that inside the crowd, a tall man stood with a grim face, and beside him, a woman was half-squatting on the ground, desperately holding two children about five or six years old, crying there: "If you really want to sell your sons and daughters, then sell me!" ”
A boy and a girl were crying there, hugging the woman equally tightly.
"You think I want to sell! Are they not my children? The man said with a pained expression, "Am I usually not good to them?" You don't want to think about it, what is the use of just drinking water after three days without eating? Look at the two of them, if you do this again, you'll starve to death! sold them, so that they could survive, and they could exchange for a bucket of food, and they could also see a doctor for their mother. ”
"Then sell me, sell me too!" The woman cried loudly and replied, "You ruthless, the two of them are so young, and if they are sold, they don't know what those masters will do to the two of them?" Sell me for food, you take two children with you! ”
"What about that mother?" The man howled in pain, "If you are not there, who will take care of the mother, and who will take care of the two of them?" And my mother is still having a fever, so I have to ask Lang Zhong to take a look immediately. ”
"Have you had enough of arguing?" A man in brocade clothes in front of them was a little impatient, and immediately asked, "It's a matter of whether you sell it or not, don't delay Lao Tzu's time!" ”
Speaking of this, he paused and then added coldly: "In this year, there are people over there who sell, if you don't want to sell, get out of the way!" ”
"Sell!"
"Not for sale!"
The tall man and the half-crouched woman replied aloud almost at the same time, but the answer was the opposite.
When Zhu Yujiao saw this scene, she immediately turned her head to Zhang Mingwei and said in an angry tone: "This man is really not a thing, why didn't he sell himself first?" ”
Zhang Mingwei actually knows the misery of refugees. Now that he really saw a living thing of selling children and daughters in front of him, he was still shocked.
However, he was not as angry as Zhu Yujiao, because he knew that just like the Lan Tianbao family, sometimes, they were originally good people, but they may be forced to a point of no return by the world.
Zhang Mingwei has not experienced this kind of experience, but he is an adult, and he has written a lot about the end of the Ming Dynasty, so he naturally knows too much!
However, Zhu Yujiao is different, she grew up in the palace, as the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty, she naturally grew up in care, and she does not have to participate in the struggle for imperial power, it can be said that she is a flower in a real greenhouse. Suddenly, seeing this kind of selling of children and daughters, her anger is equally understandable.
Zhang Mingwei thought so in his heart, and before he could respond to Zhu Yujiao's words, he heard the voice of an old man who was weak but extremely firm and angry from the other side of the city gate: "If you sell my grandchildren because of me, I will kill you!" ”
The tall man was taken aback when he heard this, and immediately turned his head to look, then shouted "Mother", and hurriedly ran over.
Zhang Mingwei looked when he heard the sound, but saw an old woman holding on to the city gate, as if she couldn't stand steadily.
I saw the tall man holding the old woman and said sadly: "Mother, they are all children who are not filial, but your disease must be cured, and you can't wait any longer!" ”
The old woman seemed to have a great opinion of her son, and wanted to shake him off, but she had no strength at all. So, she raised her head, looked at the man in brocade, and said firmly: "The people of our Liu family, we want to die together, we want to live together, not for sale!" ”
When the half-squatting woman heard this, she cried with joy, and hurriedly shouted, "Mother!" ”
However, at this time, the man in brocade clothes changed his face and said coldly: "Dare to tease Uncle Ben, come here, and snatch those two little cubs for me." ”
"Yes!" When his henchmen heard this, they immediately stepped forward and went to the woman's arms to snatch her.
"Mother, father......" The two children were snatched and cried out in fright.
Although the woman had not eaten for several days, she did not know where she got the strength to hold the two children firmly, so that the two family members could not snatch the children away for a while.
With a "snap", I saw the old woman slap her son, and shouted, "Why are you still stunned? ”
The tall man was beaten, and hurriedly ran over to stop him, and at the same time said: "Don't sell it, don't sell it!" ”
"Hehe, you said that if you don't sell it, you won't sell it?" The man in brocade sneered, and then ordered sharply, "Dare to entertain Uncle Ben, it's really shameless, don't want a grain of grain, give me a beating!" ”
So the man's remaining three or four men immediately swarmed over. But I didn't expect that the man was so good that he couldn't help him. When the two people who robbed the man saw it, they gave up robbing the person first and followed him to beat the man.
When the woman saw this, she immediately took the two children in her arms and retreated to the cave of the city gate, and put a pair of children beside the old woman, and without saying a word, rushed into the crowd to help her husband.
The crowd of onlookers was just watching, and even the guards were just watching the excitement. Most of them looked uncomfortable, but they didn't speak. There were only a few of them, who seemed to whisper something, but when the man in brocade heard the sound and looked over, he immediately lost his voice.
The couple must have been hungry and had no strength, and the man whom they had knocked down immediately rose up and pounced on them. After a while, the couple had no power to parry.
When the tall man arrived, he hurriedly protected his daughter-in-law behind him and took the fists of those men alone.
"Alas!" A few people sighed, couldn't bear to look any longer, and turned around to leave.
"Stop!" When Zhang Mingwei saw this, he shouted loudly.
When the man in brocade heard this, he turned his head to look at it and shouted sharply: "Who dares to take care of Uncle Ben's idle affairs and live impatiently? ”
But when he saw that the people who spoke, including the people around him, were all riding high-headed horses, he was suddenly a little stunned, and then changed his tone and explained: "I am Xu Yunchao, the steward of Jiading Bo's Mansion, and being teased by these Diao people, which is really unbearable!" ”
It seems that he is the weaker side!
On the Jiading Bo Mansion? When Zhang Mingwei heard this, he immediately thought, what a coincidence!
When Zhu Yujiao heard this, she was also a little surprised, but immediately her face sank and she said: "People don't want to sell, why do you want to rob other people's children?" And to beat others, that's how your master taught you? ”
When Xu Yunchao heard this, he was immediately unhappy, and his face changed and said: "When will it be the turn of outsiders to point fingers at the affairs of Jiading Bo's Mansion?" Hehe, you are just a maid, isn't it that the master didn't speak, but he was blind to himself, how did your master teach you? ”
Zhu Yujiao was stunned when she heard this, and couldn't help but think in her heart, she really exceeded her duty as a maid?
When Xu Yunchao saw her like this, he thought that they were afraid of Jiadingbo's identity, so he became a little proud.
But he didn't have time to speak, but Wang Erbiao was angry, and hurriedly said: "Be bold, what is the crime of speaking wildly?" ”
When Xu Yunchao heard this, he was stunned and angry, and immediately shouted: "I do things in Jiading Bofu, who dares to care?" Today's two little cubs are designated by the young master! Whether you sell it or not, I'm going to decide! The words are here, who cares, who is unlucky! If you don't believe me, try it? ”
Although the title is not very high, but with the current queen and the crown prince, even if it is from the Guogong Mansion, it is impossible to get along with the Jiading Bo Mansion for the sake of refugees!
The group of family members who were beating the couple originally stopped, but when they heard this, they all started to start again with a cruel smile.
