Chapter 99: Xiaoyu

My name is Xiaoyu, and when I was born, my father and mother saw that I was a girl, so they rolled me up with a broken straw mat and threw me to the side of the road.

But I was dying, and an aunt who was passing by heard my cry and picked me up and took me home.

My life is very hard, my aunt's family is very poor, there is no milk to feed me, and I am fed with boiled millet soup.

At that time, I didn't know that my aunt picked her up, and I always treated her as a mother.

I am also very sensible, and since I was five years old, I have been helping my mother with her work.

Picking up firewood and dung, washing vegetables and sweeping the floor, even if my strength is still small, I can't carry water.

But as long as I have the strength and ability to do the work, I will do it, my mother likes me very much, and often praises me for being sensible.

It's just that sometimes when I get into trouble, such as accidentally breaking a bowl or eating an extra bowl of rice, my mother will scold me.

She scolded me very badly, either scolding me for being a debt collector or scolding me for being a little slut that no one wanted.

I'm very sad, but I know that when I am a mother, I will scold my children, and Aunt Wang next door will beat her daughter with a stick when she is angry, and I feel lucky that I have not been beaten.

In order not to make my mother angry, I would be very careful when I worked later, and I only dared to eat one bowl of rice when I ate.

However, my mother will still scold me and think that I am slow to work.

Moreover, as I got older, my mother disliked me more and more.

She thinks I eat a lot and grows fast, and last year's clothes are smaller this year.

In order not to scold me, I had to eat as little as possible, and when I was hungry, I drank cold water.

Although I also want to wear new clothes during the Chinese New Year, in order not to make my mother angry, I cut the clothes that were small before and put them back on, even if others laugh at me for wearing patched clothes, it doesn't matter.

As long as my mother doesn't get angry, it's fine.

Although I often didn't have enough food and clothing, I still lived well to the age of ten.

One day, my mother suddenly said that she wanted to take me to the county town for a walk.

I've wanted to go for a long time, and I've heard that there are a lot of fun things in the county, a lot of delicious food, and it's very lively.

My mother still likes me, otherwise why would she take me to the county seat?

My mother even made me a new dress without patches, which is my favorite red one.

My mother also washed my face and combed a beautiful braid.

I took a picture of the bucket and it was so beautiful.

My mother also praised me for my good looks, and happily took me to the county seat.

The county seat is really lively, there are everything, there are tricks, oil cakes, and sugar gourds.

I was hungry and wanted to eat it, but I knew that my mother didn't have any money, so I didn't dare to ask for it.

My mother took me around the county, and after wandering around for a while, she took me to a very good shop.

There were two big red lanterns hanging at the door of the shop, and there was a chubby woman standing at the door, holding a handkerchief in her hand, smiling and greeting the people who entered the shop.

The people who came to the shop were all men, old and young.

I looked into the shop.

I found that everyone in the shop was drinking and eating.

There are chicken, duck and fish, which smell very fragrant, and those dishes are things that I can't even eat during the New Year.

It's just, it's weird.

There are still many big sisters in the shop who are accompanying the men who are eating at the table.

They will also pour them wine and even feed them with their own hands.

So shameless!

Isn't it true that women are not allowed to sit at the table?

The women can only eat leftovers.

I only saw so much, so my mother took me to the back door of the shop.

At the back door there was a chubby lady in a beautiful dress and a lot of jewelry.

When my mother saw her, she asked me to stand still.

I didn't dare move.

Seeing that the mother happily went to find the fat lady, and then started talking.

The fat girl looked at me from a distance, and beckoned me to come over.

I passed.

Fat Xian Ma rubbed my face with the back of her hand and said, "It's a beautiful embryo, that is, it has a yellow face and thin muscles, and it has to be raised for several years." ”

I didn't dare to speak, but my mother was anxious and said, "At that price, it can't be less." ”

The fat girl glanced at her mother, squatted down with a smile and asked me: "Do you want to wear beautiful clothes in the future, eat and drink spicy food every day?" ”

Who doesn't want to wear nice clothes and be able to eat enough every day?

But I don't dare to say it, because I'm a little afraid of this fat girl.

So, I silently hid behind my mother.

But my mother grabbed me in front of the fat woman and slapped me.

Then he pointed at my nose and scolded me: "Little slut, you were picked up by me, I raised you for ten years, now it's time for you to repay my mother!" ”

I cried.

At that time, I knew that my mother was not my own mother.

While I was crying, my mother said to the fat woman again: "If someone gave it to you, give me the money." ”

The fat woman took out a bag of money from her arms and threw it to her mother.

The bag of money seemed to be an ocean, because my mother took the bag, and I heard it ring.

My mother took the money and left, crying and trying to catch up because I didn't want to stay here.

Especially when the fat woman looked at me with a smile, I felt very scared, her smile was even more terrible than when my mother beat me.

However, my mother shook me off and left without even looking at me.

"If you don't want to be offended, just listen to me and call me mom in the future!"

After my mother left, the fat woman told me viciously.

I'm so scared, but my mother doesn't want me anymore, where can I go?

But what I didn't expect was that the fat lady who asked me to call my mother didn't do anything to me, not only brought me new clothes, but also brought me a lot of delicious food.

When I was full, my mother bathed me.

Large wooden barrels, warm water, clean and comfortable.

For the first time, I felt what happiness is.

That's it, I'm not so afraid of my mom anymore.

It's just that my mother said, I look like one in a thousand, train and train well, and I will be able to become an Oiran in the future.

At that time, I didn't understand what my mother meant.

However, since then, my mother has given me a house to live in, not only bringing me food and drink every day, but also finding my husband to teach me to read and write.

Not only taught me to read and write, but also found many gentlemen to teach me to play the piano and sing music.

Mom said that I don't have to do any work, just learn all these things.

I couldn't be happier.

I think my mother is better than my mother who has raised me for ten years.

In order to live up to my mother, I worked hard to read and write, learn to play the piano, learn to sing, as long as my husband taught me, I tried my best to learn.

Fortunately, I am not stupid, I can learn anything, and my mother and husband praise me for being smart.

Especially my mother, who couldn't close her mouth when she smiled, said that she had made a lot of money.

I don't know why, every time I see my mother laughing, I feel inexplicably scared.

When I was eighteen years old, I finally knew why I was scared.

That day, my mother said that when I grew up, she dressed me in a very beautiful dress, wore a lot of jewelry, and painted me with rouge and gouache.

Then let me put on a show for the guests.

I went.

At first glance, the downstairs was full of men.

When they saw me, they all showed cannibalistic eyes.

I was a little scared, but I was even more afraid that my mother would be upset if I didn't perform well, so I played the piano and sang a few little songs.

Almost all the men downstairs applauded me, and my mother was so happy that she asked me to go back to my room and wait.

I heard my mom in the room shouting to the men, bidding too high.

I didn't understand what it meant, but I was scared.

In the end, there was a young master from a big family, and there were two small yellow croakers.

After a while, the young master came to my room.

Then, I cried heartbreakingly, but he laughed like a jackal.

He was very proud and told me with satisfaction that I would be his person in the future, and I was not allowed to pick up anyone else.

He also told his mother this sentence, and gave his mother a little yellow croaker.

After he left, my mother came in and saw that I was still crying, and comforted me and said that even if I get married, I have to go through this kind of thing, and now I am taken by a rich young master, which is my blessing.

But I still have a feeling that I've been sold.

No, I was just sold.

That's when I realized why my mother was so good to me.

Later, the young master often came.

He was sometimes rough, sometimes gentle.

I seem to be getting used to it, especially when he is away, and I miss his tenderness, because he has more than once laid in my arms and said that he will redeem me and marry me home.

However, it was not long before he never came again.

My mother told me that the world was chaotic, and when the young master went out to do business, he was killed by bandits, which made me forget him.

How could I have forgotten him, I was so sad that I couldn't eat, drink, or sleep for days in a row.

At first, my mother would comfort me, but within a few days, she changed her face and asked me to pick up someone else.

I would rather die, but my mother showed her true face and found someone to tie me up......

As long as someone pays my mother to the satisfaction of the money, my mother will let him come to me.

I'm dirty.

Even if he survives, I won't be able to marry him.

My heart is dead.

I'm starting to get bad.

I volunteered to run for the Oiran.

Because Oiran can pick people by himself.

I just want to pick the ones that I look at well

I did it.

And then later.

The world is completely in chaos.

There are a lot of soldiers from the Sakura Country!

They killed the mother and killed the turtle father! They also burned down our shop.

But I'm lucky that the soldiers of Sakura Country didn't find me.

I secretly smeared the bottom of the pot on my face, took my gold and silver jewelry, and fled to a safe place......
