Chapter Twenty-Eight: Shooting Flowers
Ye Jinyan frowned slightly.
The couple is over half a hundred years old, but the woman is still charming, although the clothes they wear are rough and simple, but the visible smooth skin is shiny, and they don't look as poor as they seem.
And that man was very short, wearing a coarse cloth dress, a pair of eyes narrowed into a slit, and a huge face, which was indeed a little unsuitable in Ye Jinyan's eyes.
The couple walked over one after the other, and naturally sat down at Ye Jinyan's table, the woman glanced at Ye Jinyan with a smile, and took the lead in asking, "Little sister, are you alone?" ”
Ye Jinyan nodded and didn't say anything.
It's better to talk less when you're outside, and Sanniang specially emphasized it when she left.
"I haven't seen you in town, so you must be a girl from a nearby village, right? It's really good-looking. Ye Jinyan's cold attitude did not extinguish the woman's enthusiasm, she introduced herself with a smile, "I am also from the village, my name is Gui Fang, this is my father-in-law, you can call him the third uncle." ”
Ye Jinyan raised his head and smiled faintly at them, not planning to introduce himself.
The people in the town are already chaotic, especially when they are in the market, in order to protect their own safety, they still try to avoid contact with strangers.
Gui Fang retracted her smile and beckoned Xiao Er to order a few dishes casually, and the three of them ate at the same table. Everywhere else was happy, but the atmosphere at this table was awkwardly cold.
"Little girl, you don't look big, how old are you?" I really couldn't stand the atmosphere at this time, Gui Fang continued to ask.
She smiled softly, and her neck was slender, but her hands and feet were rough, which seemed to be the result of too much farm work.
Ye Jinyan lowered his head and ate his meal, and said vaguely: "More than ten years old." ”
Gui Fang groaned: "More than ten years old, did you come out at such a young age, follow your parents?" ”
Ye Jinyan shook his head and continued to eat.
Gui Fang turned his head to look at the man sitting next to him with bright eyes, stretched out his hand and put it on his chest, and said in a low voice, "What do you think of her?" ”
Their voices were very small, but Ye Jinyan could hear them very clearly because he sat close to him and had extraordinary ears.
The man lowered his head, turned his gaze to Ye Jinyan, and lowered his voice: "Yes, it is indeed a good seedling." ”
Ye Jinyan frowned slightly, although she didn't know what they were talking about, their words and deeds made her feel particularly suspicious, like shooting flowers.
Ye Jinyan touched the copper plate in his hand, and when he lost his appetite, he simply stopped eating.
She walked to the counter to settle the bill, and Gui Fang followed.
Gui Fang took out a handful of copper coins from his arms and threw them on the counter: "I paid for her, is it enough?" ”
The shopkeeper at the counter counted the money, his eyes lit up, and he nodded and said, "Enough is enough." ”
Ye Jinyan looked at her and frowned.
I don't know what she means, but she's never liked to owe favors to others, especially strangers.
She took out the money she was going to pay just now from her arms and put it in Gui Fang's hand: "I go out, although I am young, I never owe anyone favors. ”
As soon as Ye Jinyan finished speaking, his hand was clasped by Gui Fang.
"What do you owe or don't owe favors, you are our daughter, why are you so polite to your mother?" Gui Fang stretched out her hand and hugged Ye Jinyan in her arms, touched her hair, and smiled very gently.
Ye Jinyan intuitively felt danger, and stretched out her hand to push her away, but Gui Fang's hand was very strong, and the coarse cloth clothes she was wearing made her face hurt.
"Nonsense! You're not my mother! A trace of panic flashed in Ye Jinyan's eyes, and he said loudly, "What are you going to do?!" ”
The woman didn't reply, but just stretched out her hand, grabbed her two arms, and dragged her out forcefully.
The man behind him who watched all this stretched out his hand and touched the money bag, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Ye Jinyan has been struggling, but the original owner's body is too thin, and that Gui Fang may have worked for many years and has a lot of strength. finally waited for her to break free, and the man on the side also stepped forward to restrain her.
Seeing that she was about to be pulled out of the inn, when she reached a sparsely populated place, no one would come to save her even if she cut her throat.
Ye Jinyan clenched her fists tightly, raised her eyes to meet the woman's faint smile, and gritted her teeth in anger.
She looked around and shouted loudly to the peasants behind her, who were drinking and chatting, "Help! Shoot Hanako! ”
Gui Fang's face changed, and the strength of his hand became greater.
All the people in the inn looked at them, and everyone had strange faces.
Gui Fang laughed twice and said: "It's a joke for everyone, this is my youngest daughter, she is a little willful when she goes out, and she won't be allowed to go home if she doesn't buy something, so I have to take her home again." ”
Ye Jinyan's heart was cold, and he turned his head and glared at her viciously: "You let go of me, I'm not your little daughter!" ”
Gui Fang was not angry, and touched her head: "Okay, don't be angry, it's a big deal to buy you some candy to eat halfway, but you have to promise me to take good care of my brother when I go home." ”
Ye Jinyan was shocked and shouted: "She is shooting flowers!" ”
The people sitting in the seats didn't have half a point, they all believed Gui Fang's words, turned their heads to eat and drink, and didn't pay attention to it at all.
Ye Jinyan's body was weak, and he was firmly restrained by Gui Fang, and he lost the opportunity, even if he had the memories and skills of his previous life, he couldn't show it.
Ye Jinyan's wrist was tightly pinched by Gui Fang, and the pain was so painful that he didn't even have the strength to struggle.
The man then walked over and covered her mouth with his fingers.
The two of them dragged Ye Jinyan out one after the other, and the people in the inn watched coldly, and no one reached out to help.
There were not many people outside because of the heavy rainstorm, Ye Jinyan shouted loudly all the way, but they just watched indifferently as she was dragged away, as if she had come to Infernal Hell.
The couple dragged Ye Jinyan into the alley and kicked her directly to the wall.
"Dead girl, why are you so hard-mouthed? We were almost exposed! Gui Fang stretched out his hand and shook it, his brows furrowed, "As long as you obediently listen to us, we will treat you well, but if you don't listen, then don't blame us for being polite!" ”
Ye Jinyan coughed, feeling that her internal organs were broken, she slowly got up from the ground, looked at the couple vigilantly, and asked, "Who are you?" ”
"Who are we?" Gui Fang lowered her head and stretched out her hand to gently stroke Ye Jinyan's hair, with a bit of playfulness in her eyes, "Why did you forget, kid?" We are your parents! ”
Dangerous, too dangerous! I can't beat them, so I have to use my brain to do a confrontation with them.
Ye Jinyan slowly sat down against the wall, his expression calming down.
"You want to kidnap me?" She said, "But I'm grown up, I'm not a kid who doesn't remember, and I can't sell it for a few dollars, right?" ”
"Just talk well." Gui Fang squatted down, gently hugged Ye Jinyan's head, and smiled gently, but that smile made Ye Jinyan get goosebumps.
"But you may not know much about the current situation, many villages don't have a few women, and it's a good thing to sell women now." Gui Fang stroked Ye Jinyan's hair and said with a smile, "As long as you obediently listen to me, I can also pick a good husband for you." ”
