Chapter 4: The Righteous (2)

As he was talking, many children were washed, boys and girls, five or six years old, were basically naked, and only teenage girls knew that they were ashamed, covered with tattered clothes, and squatted in the yard to eat nest heads.

Some of the children who were taken out and shaved their heads thought that they could not eat the nest, and they screamed and scolded and kicked in anger, like angry little beasts. Some of the children had experienced too much hardship on the way to escape, and when they saw the crying, they immediately began to howl, forgetting to eat the nest in their mouths, and their faces turned black and yellow with saliva.

Where has Bai Wendi seen so many dirty children, he frowned, dodged the hands of a dirty child, and his eyes were full of disgust.

Boss Qi laughed, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Okay, Old Five, you are busy with your going, I have left all the things here, you can't interfere in these things, you are a great talent, if you want to think more about those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, you must tear off their paintings." ”

After Bai Wendi left, Boss Qi waved his hand and asked someone to bring these children together: "Pick out the ones that look pleasing to the eye, it's all money!" ”

When he left, he took away a cartload of grain, although it was the result of the people of Shanghai raising funds and donations, but their alliance also contributed a lot of money. These children are all brought for nothing, some are dying orphans, and some are parents who saw the convoy passing, knelt down and begged to leave a way for their children to live, Boss Qi calculated, the children did not spend money, and they ate a lot along the way, more than 30, and half a nest for one person had to eat dozens a day.

"We are opening a charity hall, but we can't bear this reputation in vain, you will take someone to ...... tomorrow"

Boss Qi whispered a few words in the ear of a confidant, and the man nodded busily: "Boss is really a good person, he can give them a way to live!" ”

Early the next morning, Meihua was taken by car to a closed courtyard with three children of her age.

These four children are all in their teens, they are good-looking, and they are white and clean after washing, which is very eye-catching among all the children.

Boss Qi picked and sent the children out, and touched the bare head of the plum blossom and said, "Good boy, don't forget your Uncle Qi when you enjoy happiness in the future." ”

Meihua is grateful to this uncle.

The family escaped, and at first her father carried two baskets with a flat pole, in which sat her brother and sister, and she helped her mother all the way, and in front of her was a person who could not see the head at a glance. Behind is also a black pressed person, passing by the trees have no bark and leaves, she looked at someone hungry and couldn't help it, lying on the ground to eat Guanyin soil, and then her stomach swelled like a cauldron, fell to the ground and never got up.

Walking, walking, then her father's children were gone, and then she woke up in a daze to see that her mother was gone, her father's face was full of tears, sitting on the ground and wiping his eyes vigorously, he no longer had the strength to cry loudly. Keep walking, if you have a breath, you have to leave, you can only survive when you have a place to eat, and if you stop and have no strength, you will be eaten by those who have strength.

She remembered his father's words, and she had to climb slowly, and one day it was raining heavily, and her father was covered in muddy water, shivering and panting, and convulsed until midnight when he lost his breath.

She thought, I'm also dead, what is the way for the family to be left alone?

At this moment, Uncle Qi came, their people set up a shed, someone was standing outside with a stick and a machete, one person could only go over and carry a broken bowl with two spoons, someone grabbed a spoon and poured it into his mouth, and the porridge was boiling hot! The man who watched the porridge shed carried a stick, and hit the man with a clatter, and click, the man's bones were broken, and he rolled all over the ground, reaching out and scratching his chest, and screaming in pain.

Uncle Qi looked at the frightened plum blossom with a smile, and suddenly reached out and pinched her chin: "Little girl, where are the adults in your family?" ”

Plum blossom said indifferently: "It's all ...... He's dead. ”

"Okay, come with me and find a place to eat and drink."

Now, the plum blossom who was pushed and sent into the small courtyard thought, is this a place to eat and drink?

The four girls were sent in, you look at me, I look at you, huddled together, and no one dared to go forward.

"Oh, what are you picking for me, like a little nun, can't you pick a few neat ones? How long do I have to raise this skinny one? ”

A fat woman in a cheongsam came out of the back room dangling a handkerchief, looked the plum blossoms up and down, and made a smacking voice: "This skinny, when can you smoke a strip, and you need a hundred more?" Pit people. ”

"Honggu, look at what you said, these children are afraid of lice, so they have shaved their hair, which is also to cause you less trouble. It's good to eat a few full meals, you look at your appearance, you almost didn't starve to death and still look like this, Shui Lingling's eyes are thin and white, and she is definitely a little beauty when she grows up, not much for a hundred yuan, just like this, after a few months, someone will hold thousands of people begging you. ”

The man pulled the plum blossoms, and asked the plum blossoms to open their mouths to show the red girl's teeth: "Look, how neat these teeth are, there are too few teeth of a poor girl who are so good, this can be used up and down, and it will be liked by people." ”

Plum blossom didn't know what they were doing with their mouths, and when she saw people buying livestock in her hometown, she said unhappily: "Where is this?" Uncle Qi said to find us a good place. ”

She is a little older among the children, and she heard them at dinner yesterday that they were going to be sent to the troupe to learn opera, and if they don't learn well, they may be sent to a bad place by the troupe, but Meihua is very confident, she feels that she is not bad, and she is a little older, so she will be able to have eyes, learn drama well, do things well, and strive to stay in the troupe and not be sold.

But this ...... She looked around, there was a strong smell of fragrant powder in the yard, and she couldn't breathe, and through the window, there were beautiful women looking at them. Those women are dressed like fairies in the sky, there is no babbling and no huqin sound here, this is not a troupe.

"This is the place where you eat and drink, as long as you are obedient and obedient, you look good and attractive, and your upper and lower mouths are full."

Honggu laughed, handed over the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other.

The plum blossoms were brought into the house, and several beautiful women gathered around Hulala, twisting their waists, reaching out and pinching their little faces, and looking at them carefully.

A woman said, "My family is really willing to do this." ”

Honggu saw that these four children looked neat and white, and she was very happy: "These people from the yellow flood area are estimated to be dead." How good is this, I will stop thinking about it in the future and concentrate on earning money for me. She looked at a girl: "You remember it for me, in the future you will be the girl of my yard, I will be your mother, you have to do whatever I say, the obedient have to eat, drink and wear beautiful clothes, and the disobedient will be killed and thrown outside to feed the wild dogs." ”

Plum blossoms are a little dizzy, these women ...... No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a serious person. So this is not a troupe, it is ......

She looked at her surroundings, and Honggu's mouth was still talking about her rules. Suddenly, a word entered her ears, it was said by a woman, the woman swallowed melon seeds and laughed in a low voice: "This famine year is good, how many good girls have entered the kiln." ”
