Wei An saw it clearly, Shen Chen's fingers moved, followed by the fat woman, and she groaned as if she had tripped over something and fell to the ground.

She turned her head to look at Shen Chen, and saw that Shen Chen's brows were furrowed.

The little girl on the side of the road was a little at a loss, the wonton in her hand was still steaming, she hesitated for a moment and then put the thing on the table next to her without hesitation, and reached out to help the woman who had fallen.

The woman didn't appreciate it at all, she fell like this in front of so many people, she was ashamed and ashamed, she stood up and slammed a chisel on the little girl's head: "You mourning star, broom star,, what kind of sin did we create in our previous life, God wants to send a mourning star like you to collect debts!" ”

She lay down while talking, scolding with dirty words over and over again, scolding the little girl back and forth for being a mourning star, saying that she had lost her errand, and the family had no subsidies after a few good days.

There were many people coming and going in the street, and the stall owner had already shaken his head and sighed and came to persuade him, but the woman just wouldn't listen.

The stall owner was also a little annoyed: "The little girl said that her sister wanted to eat, so she came to buy a bowl, which also cost a few dollars..... It's really not possible, this bowl of wonton, even if I give it to you, can't it? What about this street, people come and go, I still have to do business, you can do well, the girl is also big, and you also want to be faced, you are a mother, it is not appropriate to curse your daughter like this? Do you say? ”

As soon as the woman heard that she didn't want money, she really stood up with her eyes shining, stretched out her hand and poked the little girl's head for a moment, and scolded with round eyes: "Did you hear that?" Why don't you hurry up and get it served? How rich is your sister? If you don't eat at home, you still have to eat these wontons, what kind of girl do you really think you are?! ”

While speaking, he scolded the little vendor and went to get the five coppers.

Although this face is too ugly, Wei An has not seen it, when she went to Beizhuang, when she brought Su Ping and Wenxiu back, she saw a lot of such scenes in the vicinity.

Many places do not treat girls as human beings, and always feel that girls are here to collect debts, especially mothers, but they also deduct the most ruthless from girls.

She sighed, and when the girl walked to the side with her head down, she whispered to her, "Your hair is loose." ”

The little girl thanked her like a mosquito, and when she heard the woman in front of her turn her head and scold again, her face turned red all of a sudden, and she glanced at Wei An gratefully, and hurriedly chased her out.

The woman's scolding voice continued to be heard in the wind, but the girl's complaint was not heard from beginning to end.

Wei An was keenly aware of Shen Chen's depressed mood, and when the Han Bo in front of him found a place and came over to invite them, he asked him, "Haven't you seen this scene before?" ”

Shen Chen helped Wei An sit down, shook his head and frowned: "I really haven't seen it much, in the eyes of people like us, it is indeed a very incomprehensible thing to toss so desperately for a few coppers, and to be completely shameless." ”

Wei An thought for a while, and said: "My grandmother once told me that there is nothing more bitter than a girl in the world, that is, when you are in your mother's house, you can live a comfortable life for a while, and when you get married, you have to serve your in-laws, have children, and manage the middle ......"

Wei An lowered his head and laughed, a little melancholy: "This is still an excellent life, it is a good family background, and the family that married in the past is also the right person chosen by the parents, so that you can live such a life." And more, it is those girls who are not very good at home, they have to take their younger siblings with them when they are at home, and they have to start washing and cooking at a young age, chopping wood and making fires, and when they are older, they are sold at a good price by their parents, and then they continue to live such a life at their in-laws' house, and they meet good in-laws and husbands, and if they meet bad ones, they will ......live like that for the rest of their lives."

She raised her head and looked at Shen Chen seriously: "So what you see is just a microcosm of the poor girls in this world." ”

Shen Chen sighed: "As you say, girls don't seem to have any happy time in their lives." ”

"That's what happened." Wei An laughed self-deprecatingly: "Think about it, is there no female household in the Great Zhou Dynasty?" Think about it again, how many cases have there been over property? How many families have not given birth to sons, and when they die, the family wealth will be robbed by the clan or relatives, but the daughter is penniless? In this world, it has never been fair to men and women. ”

Shen Chen didn't refute, but Wei An didn't have the heart to eat wonton, she stood up, thought about it and said to Shen Chen: "Since that girl is here to buy wonton, she must live not far from the neighborhood, looking at these words of the woman and the stall owner, it seems that they also know each other, why don't you go and ask, see if there is anything we can help, that girl is about the same age as me, and it is time for Xu to kiss......"

Although this is the general environment in this world, it can always help a little bit, and change some things if you can.

Shen Chen agreed, got into the carriage with Wei An, took a turn on Zhengyang Street, and went to Phoenix Terrace first.

Phoenix Terrace is now Xie Liangcheng in charge, and he laughed first when he saw Wei An.

Wei An was also happy to see him, and when he went upstairs, he asked him, "Why are you here today?" ”

Phoenix Terrace is equal to Shen Chen's intelligence department, most of the information is sent here and then to Shen Chen's hands, Xie Liangcheng is also very busy, and when he is almost free, he can rarely be seen here.

Xie Liangcheng smiled, ordered someone to serve tea, sat opposite Wei An and smiled, and said, "Of course, I heard that you will come, so I deliberately stayed here and waited." ”

After the joke, he glanced at Shen Chen, then at Wei An, and then said: "It's the Hou Ye who is afraid that you are worried, so he specially called me to tell you that the prince is going to enter Beijing immediately, about the past few days, the Ministry of Rites and the palace have people waiting on the dock these days, once the prince comes back, someone will report immediately, and you can rest assured." ”

It has been nearly half a year since King Zheng's affairs were dragged back and forth, and he could finally hear the exact news, Wei An was really relieved, and hurriedly said: "Then I have to go and talk to the princess, there has been news recently, but the road has been delayed for some reason, and I always can't receive people, and the princess always suffers from gains and losses, for fear that something will happen." ”
