5 Selling children
Although Jiang Ye married Zhao Fengcheng and looked wronged, he actually didn't suffer much later, even if it was like this, most of the rice noodles left by Zhao Fengcheng were white rice noodles. If it weren't for Liu Xiucai, she would have saved the milled rice for brown rice, she really wouldn't eat any millet porridge, not to mention that she still added wild vegetables to boil it, so Jiang Ye was disgusted and unpalatable, Xiao Zhengtai was not suspicious, and took the bowl of small animals while drinking porridge while looking at Jiang Ye vigilantly.
And Jiang Ye was angry, but she knew that what was important now was not to find trouble with the Liu family, but how to get by, after all, she didn't know whether Zhao Fengcheng went out hunting or went to do short-term work, if they didn't come back in three or five days, would they starve to death.
Jiang Ye went out of the bedroom, although he had guessed that it was the last bowl of porridge, but he didn't expect to go out, it was empty everywhere, and there was only one clay pot in the kitchen that was missing a hole and could not be sold on the stove, Jiang Ye looked over and found that there was only a layer of water for brushing the pot, and there was only one earthen bowl next to the clay pot that could not be sold, which contained half a bowl of water for the brushing pot, thinking that it was just prepared for the child to drink for himself.
Jiang Ye took a deep breath, he wanted to find a firewood knife to go up the mountain to find prey or something, but looking at this home, presumably knives are luxuries, Jiang Ye had no choice, so he had to go and see if he could borrow someone else's knife.
Back in the room, Xiao Zhengtai had already finished drinking porridge and was licking the bowl, when he saw Jiang Ye coming in, he shook it, and then put down the bowl, he didn't feel embarrassed, but he was afraid that Jiang Ye would dislike him and be so embarrassed and beat him again.
Jiang Ye recalled several times, and finally figured out Xiao Zhengtai's action psychology, holding his breath in his heart, but he kept trying to make himself look gentle, although he understood that Xiao Zhengtai would not let down his vigilance, but he was gentle, and it was better for Xiao Zhengtai to be more comfortable than calling him with a straight face.
Jiang Ye didn't expect Xiao Zhengtai to change her attitude towards her overnight, but she was going out to find food, and she really didn't worry about such a child at home, so she watched him finish eating, and then said kindly: "There is nothing to eat at home, let's go outside and dig some wild vegetables together." ”
Xiao Zhengtai has no objections, basically Jiang Ye will agree to whatever he says.
At this time, it was the beginning of spring, and it was still a little cool outside, Jiang Ye looked at Xiao Zhengtai's dark face and wet hair, and found a dry clothes that were probably his own to dry his head, and then turned over a piece of torn clothes to wrap him, the adult's clothes were very nondescript, and it was not easy to walk, Xiao Zhengtai just wanted to speak, but was picked up by Jiang Ye.
The two walked out, and Xiao Zhengtai's body was stiff all the time, until he went out of the door, and Xiao Zhengtai suddenly struggled: "Mother, mother...... Don't sell me. ”
Jiang Ye hurriedly put him on the ground, and said confusedly: "What did I sell you for." ”
"Swap ...... Exchange for rice grain. Xiao Zhengtai grabbed the pillars of the courtyard before he dared to say what he heard.
It turned out that Jiang Ye only remembered the memories of the matter with Xiao Zhengtai, but he did not look closely at the matter with the Liu family, so the Liu family not only paid attention to let the original owner save Xiao Zhengtai's rations, but also asked the original owner to sell Xiao Zhengtai in exchange for some money.
The original owner has a hole in his brain, but he also knows that if she dares to sell Xiao Zhengtai, then Zhao Fengcheng will dare to kill her, so this matter is over, but he doesn't want to be heard by Xiao Zhengtai, he has always felt that his mother is at home, and no one dares to refute it, so he is particularly afraid that Jiang Ye will really sell him.
Especially now that Jiang Ye wrapped him up like this, saying that he was going out to help her dig wild vegetables, but it was inconvenient for him to come out with his hands and feet tied, how could he help, not to mention, Jiang Ye actually hugged him, so Xiao Zhengtai felt that there was nothing to eat at home, and her mother was finally going to exchange him for food.
Jiang Ye, who figured it out, knew that he wouldn't listen to the other party's quibble, so he could only learn the tone of the previous owner and said: "What to sell, what to sell, it seems that you are valuable, if it weren't for the fact that I was afraid of going up the mountain alone, I wouldn't take you." ”
These words sounded fierce, but they actually told him that he was worthless, so that he didn't think about it, and let him understand why he took him, so that Jiang Ye could continue to carry the child out.
