The girl remained on her knees, not saying a word, just quietly and indifferently looking at the wooden sign that had fallen to the ground.

Ji Xia walked over slowly and lifted the wooden sign on the ground. He took out ten taels of silver from his bosom, leaned down slightly, spread out the girl's palm, and solemnly put the silver in her hand, "Go and bury your father!" After saying that, he helped the girl up.

The girl suddenly burst into tears, and was about to kneel down and kowtow, but was stopped by Ji Xia.

"Don't kneel to me, it's important to go and bury your father."

The girl cried and said in a trembling voice, "Miss, you have bought me, and I will be your slave and maid from now on, and I will repay you for your great kindness as a cow and a horse." ”

Ji Xia hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I helped you completely to see that you are pitiful, not to buy you." ”

As a modern person, Ji Xia has been rooted since he was a child, and he has learned to be rich and strong to the people, the Lord, fairness and justice, but he can't do the ancient set of buying and selling people as goods and calling people.

"Does Miss dislike me for being clumsy? Don't look at my young age, I can do laundry, cook, carry water and chop firewood! As he spoke, he began to cry again.

"I am originally from Jeju, three months ago, my hometown was flooded, my father and I fled to the capital to look for relatives, but my father contracted a bad disease on the road, and when he woke up one morning, he was already cold. In order to see a doctor, my body has long been exhausted, and I have no money and no place to go now...... Please have mercy on me, and take me in. ”

After listening to her experience, Ji Xia recalled that she had lost her relatives when she was as old as her, and she couldn't help but empathize, but she didn't know how to refuse at the moment.

Just wait for yourself and Gao Han to finish the matter, take her to Taoyuan County, and then find a place for her to settle down!

So he said: "I still have things to do now, why don't you go and bury your father first, and then buy a few clean clothes and shoes with the rest of the money, have a full meal, and then come to the Yunlai Inn to find me, my name is Ji Xia." ”

When the girl heard that Ji Xia was willing to take her in, she gradually stopped crying, smiled and nodded, and then turned to leave.

The sunset was waning, and a sunset was smeared on the horizon.

Ji Xia walked on the way back to the inn.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a man dressed as a farmer and an old woman jumped out, grabbed Ji Xia's arm, trying to drag her somewhere. The bags of candy and pastries in Ji Xia's hand all fell to the ground.

The man and the old woman didn't look strong, but they had great strength, and no matter how hard Ji Xia struggled, he couldn't break free.

"Who are you! Let me go! ”

The people on the road surrounded Ji Xia after hearing Ji Xia's cry for help and pointed at them.

"What is this doing?"

"Let this girl go!"

"In broad daylight, pulling and pulling ......"

"If you have anything to say, say it well!"

……

Just when Ji Xia thought that he could get rid of the two with the help of the masses, he saw that the woman sat on the ground with her butt and played a scoundrel and said, "What do you know, what do you know!" ”

The mouth cried endlessly, but the hands that were holding Ji Xia's arms never let go, and they were still tightly clamped!

Her cry aroused the curiosity of the surrounding crowd, and they pricked up their ears.

I saw her crying and complaining: "She is my daughter-in-law!" She has no conscience, she thinks our family is poor, and she secretly ran out! We've found her, but she still won't go back with us! ”

"What do you say, I don't know you! This lady, you have recognized the wrong person! ”

"How can you turn black and white upside down like that? The children at home don't care anymore, and the children cry and cry every day to find their mother...... Everyone is here to judge! The old woman cried even harder!

Seeing this, the surrounding people began to accuse Ji Xia.

"Girl, how can you do this, how can you ignore the child!"

"Lady, get up quickly!"

……

Ji Xia is really speechless. "I don't know them, I don't know them!"

"Daughter-in-law, although our family is poor, I promise you that I will work hard to make money! For the sake of the children, come home with me! ”

"Yes, for the child's sake, let's go back with him." The surrounding people should be peaceful.

"Thank you, everyone, everyone is a sensible person, I will persuade my daughter-in-law again." The old woman had a kind look on her face.

"I don't know you at all! I don't know you at all! ”

Things have developed so far, Ji Xia has guessed that these two people have recognized the wrong person, and it is clear that they are robbing the people's daughters in public.

These two are "human traffickers!" ”

"I don't know them at all, and I don't have any children, I beg you to believe me......" Ji Xia was very scared at this time, his whole body couldn't stop shaking, and he couldn't help crying.

But none of the people around her believed what she said, which made her feel very helpless.

The crowd gradually dispersed, the old woman changed her miserable face of crying and crying, smiled coldly, took out a rag from her arms, and stuffed it into Ji Xia's mouth.

Immediately afterwards, she tied Ji Xia's hands with hemp rope very quickly. And the man was not idle, and picked up Ji Xia and carried it on his shoulders.

No one will come to save her, and even if anyone hears it, they will only think it's a "family matter".

The feeling of despair, like a tide, surged into Ji Xia's heart.
