Chapter 53: Selling Women

Jumping off the mule cart with full joy, Qu Die said goodbye to the old man and walked straight in the direction of home, the road in the back mountain was not easy to walk, so Qu Die only let the old man send her near the old house every time he put her down.

The sun at noon was a little spicy, and Qu Die's fat couldn't withstand the exercise, and as soon as the sun was so shining, sweat beads began to appear on her forehead.

At the moment when he was about to enter the old house, a black ball-like thing in front of the door suddenly moved, and then he was about to pounce towards Qu Die.

As soon as his body froze, Qu Die instinctively reacted and was about to stretch out a palm to knock the unknown object away, but he forcibly retracted it the moment his palm was about to fall on the object.

"Wanting? What are you doing here? Although Qu Wanting is one year older than her, because of her cowardly nature, Qu Die has always called her name affectionately.

At this time, Qu Wanting had also come to Qu Die, she lowered her head and drooped her shoulders, and her whole person looked even thinner.

Slowly raising her head, Qu Die only saw Qu Wanting's current state at this time, her arms covered with bruises, and a few whip marks that were red and purple, looking very terrifying.

Qu Wanting was wiping tears and crying out of breath at this time.

frowned tightly, Qu Die's face couldn't help showing a trace of anger, and her voice sank unconsciously, "Your mother beat you?" ”

Nodding slightly, Qu Wanting still wiped the tears from her face.

Seeing this, Qu Die couldn't help but grit her teeth, and felt a little self-blame in her heart.

She knew that the reason why Qu Wanting was tortured like this must have nothing to do with herself, Qu Wen's heart was definitely not happy when she was deflated several times, and Qu Wanting became her best punching bag.

Qu Die wanted to make the Qu family ugly, but she forgot that Qu Wanting was also a member of the Qu family, and because of this, she suffered together.

Taking a deep breath, Qu Die was a little indignant about this, although she was cold to outsiders, she was like a leopard who only protects her calves, and she didn't allow anyone to hurt the people she cared about!

Gently stroking Qu Wanting's thin cheeks full of tears, Qu Die comforted softly: "You go into the house to rest, I'll go to Qu's house to settle accounts with them, ah?" ”

After that, she was about to turn around and leave, but Qu Wanting immediately became very excited after hearing her words, and hurriedly pulled her back, so she sobbed and explained the ins and outs to her.

Spraying some Yunnan Baiyao on her hand, Qu Die walked out of the door and saw Qu Wanting sitting on a chair and not knowing what she was thinking.

Rolling up one of her sleeves, Qu Die rubbed the medicine for her and asked, "Do they really want to marry you to the old man in the next village?" ”

It's not that she doesn't believe Qu Wanting's words, it's just that this matter is still confirmed, Qu Wanting is actually one year older than her, and fifteen years old is the age at which she can take marriage leave.

And Qu Wanting is sixteen this year, but the Qu family has not married her off for a long time, not because Qu Wen's family is reluctant, but because the Qu family has called her as a subordinate.

Qu Wen's body is weak, his mouth is very poisonous, and his hands are quite skillful, and he will help the Qu family do some sewing and embroidery work, but he is really unwilling to do the hard and tiring dirty work.

Therefore, after Qu Wanting became sensible, she began to take over most of the farm work in the Qu family.

And Zhao Mei is not to mention, what can be said with a mouth is full of fancies, and she coaxed the Qu Wang family, who was not very good-tempered, to believe her, but she was defeated in giving birth to a foolish daughter.

So in the work at home, she will help a little bit, but this does not mean that she will feel sorry for Qu Wanting, in her eyes, Qu Wanting is the same money-losing goods as Qu Die!

Hearing Qu Die's question, Qu Wanting couldn't help but feel a little sad, but she still didn't hide what happened that day.

"After you left, my mother was very angry, and my grandmother passed out for a long time before she woke up. Then I ...... and bit my lower lip, remembering the abuse I suffered yesterday, Qu Wanting is still trembling uncontrollably.

patted her back distressedly, and Qu Wanting continued: "In the evening, my mother and aunt suddenly said that they had promised me a family affair, and he was an old man in our village, surnamed Niu. The old man, I know, I used to hear the villagers talk about him, he was a bad old man who could only eat, drink, prostitute and poison, and the little money he had was taken from a former daughter-in-law. ”

As she spoke, Qu Wanting couldn't help but sobbed lowly, marrying such an old man, the rest of her life can be imagined, I am afraid that she will not be beaten severely, and she will have to work hard every day to make money to support the old man and spend all day drinking.

Sixteen years old is still a young girl even here, but most of her flower is about to be ruined by an old man who is about to enter the coffin, Qu Die will never let this kind of thing happen!

"It's okay, don't worry, with me, I will never let you marry that dead old man!" While wiping her face with her sleeve, Qu Die poured a glass of water and comforted her.

"Hmm." Biting her lower lip, Qu Wanting took a sip of tea very obediently, only to hear Qu Die say again at this time, "I see that you are also tired, don't go back, leave me to sleep for one night, huh?" ”

If she went back, Qu Wanting would definitely be beaten again, and she wouldn't slip out so easily, so Qu Die thought about simply taking Qu Wanting in.

After crying for a whole morning, Qu Wanting's spirit was indeed a little tired, and she did not object to Qu Die's proposal, just when Qu Die persuaded Qu Wanting to go to sleep first.

In the end, she couldn't help but grab the corner of Qu Die's clothes, and asked with some concern: "Qu Die, are you really, really?" Even the milk agreed to this matter, and ...... The old man didn't hesitate at all after hearing about this family, and directly gave my mother a deposit, and my mother will definitely not regret it. ”

Shaking his head and sighing, looking at Qu Wanting's spirit that was starting to be wrong, Qu Die's heart was unspeakably uncomfortable.

If you want to say that Qu Wanting is at such an age in modern times, she is still an underage child, and if she marries hastily like this, Qu Die will not be able to die no matter what.

finally soothed Qu Wanting's emotions, and Qu Die couldn't help but have a headache.

Moved a chair and sat quietly in the courtyard alone, Qu Die's thoughts began to drift far away - just a few nights ago, she suddenly had a dream, a dream that seemed to be experienced by the original owner Qu Die.

Unconsciously frowned, Qu Die now remembered that dream but it was a little blurry, and now she could only vaguely remember that it seemed to be at noon, when the sun was about to set.

There was a hand, a rough and wrinkled palm, that took her small, tender little hand, and ...... Where? The owner of the palm led her to a place, a place that was somewhat familiar.

Then before following the man, she seemed to see ...... A little doll.

There are a pair of bright eyes embedded in the small thin face, but at this moment, those beautiful eyes are full of fear.

For some reason, Qu Die just felt that the look of fear was extremely familiar, as if he had seen it just now.

After opening his eyes and thinking about it carefully, Qu Die's gaze unconsciously turned to the house, and an answer was instantly formed in his mind.

Letting go of the horror in her heart, Qu Die couldn't help but feel that it was necessary for her to have a good chat with Qu Wanting.

After sleeping peacefully all night, the Qu family knew that it was only now that they began to notice that something was wrong.

Viciously threw the shovel in his hand onto the stage, Qu Wen's whole face became hideous now.

"Where the hell did that dead girl die if she didn't come back all night!" While scolding, her heart couldn't help but start to feel a little uneasy. Only then did I remember that since I heard that I was going to get married yesterday, the girl began to feel wrong.

"Damn it! This dead baby won't run away, will it? As soon as this idea appeared, Qu Wenshi became more and more nervous, and hurriedly put down the work in his hand and rushed out like a rocket.

Here in the old house, Qu Die and Qu Wanting had a good meal just now, and they were planning to take a mule cart to the town to continue selling tea eggs.

Qu Die's craftsmanship was still good in ancient times, coupled with the help of modern seasonings, Qu Wanting was exhausted from crying yesterday, and she had a great appetite to eat several bowls early this morning.

Although she still couldn't let go of that matter in her heart, following Qu Die made her feel unprecedented peace of mind, and seeing that the Qu family hadn't come to the door yet, she obediently obeyed Qu Die's orders.

The two of them had just stepped out of the courtyard and walked in the direction of the mule cart, but when they saw Qu Wen's family running towards them from afar.

As soon as she raised her eyebrows, Qu Die turned her head and saw Qu Wanting's face that suddenly changed color, stood in place and waited for a while, Qu Die quietly watched Qu Wen's family walk forward with the Qu family.

During this period, there was even Qu Die's father, Qu Jiang, who has rarely appeared.

As soon as he came up, Qu Wenshi pointed at Qu Wanting and couldn't wait to start scolding, "I knew that you cheap girl was here to die, are you sincere in going against your family?" Do you still expect this dead girl to save you? ”

Completely forgetting how Qu Die embarrassed them before, Qu Wen's family was only full of anger now, although the old man was not rich, but he could be regarded as an upstart.

Woe to the dowries of his previous daughters-in-law, how can I say that he still has a little money, and most importantly, the old man is lustful and old!

In order to be able to marry Qu Wanting, she gave a large deposit! Qu Wen's family originally hoped that after marrying Qu Wanting, he could not only earn money to buy his daughter, but also maybe he could give the rest of his money after the old man died.

Unexpectedly, Qu Wanting was so ignorant, she secretly ran out while she was not paying attention, and now she is still with Qu Die, whom she hates the most!

The more Qu Wenshi thought about it, the more angry he became, and regardless of Qu Die's presence, he raised his hand and wanted to give Qu Wanting a slap, but Qu Die held his wrist tightly.

"What are you doing!" Qu Die's strength is really great, Qu Wen's thin body can be said to be very weak in front of Qu Die, and Qu Wen's scream of pain screams, Qu Wen's began to struggle constantly, but the more she struggled, the tighter Qu Die's grip.
