Chapter 66: The Disgusting Statute of Selling Children
"Brother Zhang, you wait, I'll take the things and we'll go to the town immediately. I'll tell my mother. ”
Chang Shuang was talking, and someone from the He family came back.
"Yo, who is this? I said cousin, you can't take a man back to our house, people who don't know still think that there is something innocent in our family. ”
This person is He Da's son He Jiawen, he knows about his cousin's family, and when he sees his cousin talking to a stranger man intimately, he wants to laugh.
These words made Chang Zhang frown, he saw that it was a somewhat chubby man with small eyes, about the same age as himself, listening to this person's words, he was from the He family, but his heart and eyes were not good.
Chang Zhang wanted to explain, but Chang Shuang preemptively said coldly: "Cousin, this is my cousin, come to see my mother, if you want to speak out again, I will hit you in the mouth next time." ”
Chang Shuang glanced at this lazy cousin coldly, and ran to the small hut to talk to his mother.
Chang Zhang stared at him with a dark face, and it was also very unpleasant to look at this son of the He family, but he didn't say anything.
"Hey you......"
He Jiawen heard Chang Shuang say this, he was not convinced, and was about to say something, Chang Shuang rushed out of the small hut with a bag on his back, and He Xiaojuan's puzzled voice came from behind him, "Shuang'er, what is Zhang'er doing, why did you just come and leave?" Don't be in such a hurry, be careful on the road! ”
"Mother, I'll come to see you again when I'm free."
Chang Shuang saw his cousin running past him, and Chang Zhang also ran away, leaving He Jiawen confused in place, "What?" Come as you say, leave as you say, don't come in the future, hum! ”
Chang Shuang hurriedly ran out of the village, scolding angrily, "Damn the law of perversion! ”
One of the most disgusting laws of the Great Qin State is the law of selling children: if the people are so poor that they have no food to eat, they are allowed to sell their children to avoid hunger. Sons under the age of fifteen are allowed to be sold.
This disgusting law of selling children was allowed and even encouraged by the imperial court, and it was said to be a famine-relief policy. Poor families can only afford to buy food by selling their children, so that famine can be avoided.
Ahh What kind of garbage brainless emperor prescribes the statute of encouragement, did he die? Not dead, Chang Shuang wanted to assassinate him.
Chang Shuang inadvertently thought that it seemed that there was also such a period in the history of the Celestial Empire when the emperor was in power and encouraged the buying and selling of children. Which emperor is coming? It seems that Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, is a good founding emperor, and there are times when he is confused and does not do anything.
It is precisely because of this kind of fearless law that there is Chang Feng's reassuring waste of selling children to make money, and there are white people who buy and sell human beings.
"Brother Zhang, do you know the way to the town from here?"
"I don't know, it's my first time in this village, fortunately, it's not far, just ask people."
The brother and sister asked passers-by, and after knowing the route, they ran to the city with all their might. Chang Zhang has been running for a long time, she is very tired, and she gradually can't keep up with Chang Shuang, she runs very fast.
Seeing that his cousin was very tired, Chang Shuang said: "Brother Zhang, I'll go first, you can rest for a while, I will get my sister back, don't worry." ”
Chang Shuang ran first, she was in a hurry, blaming herself for her slow speed. This body is not yet able to adapt to strenuous exercise, and Chang Shuang's light work does not have much speed, but it just seems to run faster than ordinary people.
Anbei Village is closer to the city than Anli Village, and when Chang Shuang ran to the city gate, it was already afternoon, and she was tired and panting like a cow.
There was no time to rest or eat, so Chang Shuang asked where the people in the city were. Along the way, Chang Shuang heard Chang Zhang's words, what would she do after Renyazi bought someone, and she was worried that her sisters had been pulled out of the city.
