As soon as Liu Guiyuan's words fell, Liu Chongshan angrily dropped his chopsticks and said angrily: "Little girl, look at what you can, raise you until now, I don't know how thick the sky is!" You can make money, you can make a piece of shit! ”

Liu Hongzao and Liu Huahua were frightened, and seeing that her father was going to beat someone, Liu Hongzao dragged Liu Guiyuan hard, glared at her, and signaled her to stop talking nonsense.

Liu Huahua half-blocked Liu Guiyuan by picking up chopsticks, and said carefully: "Dad, Guiyuan was stupid, and now he hasn't made sense, don't be angry with her." ”

At the same time, he turned around and reprimanded Liu Guiyuan: "Guiyuan, don't be disobedient, hurry up and give your father a soft, do you hear?" ”

At this moment, Liu Guiyuan's mind is thinking about the ill-fated girls in "Dream of Red Mansions", because of the harsh treatment of the master and the exclusion of other maids, the last one died lonely and miserable......

She lived in a very different era from the 21st century, where there were no human rights, children could be pawned by their parents at will, women had less status than men, and the dynasty did not allow ordinary women to rebel.

With a little thought, she can guess that her future life will probably be to work at home for a few years, and then her parents will arrange to marry a man she has never met, and then continue to work in his home, and finally have a child and grow old......

However, such a fate arrangement, Liu Guiyuan's death could not be accepted, so now refusing Liu Chongshan's arrangement to go to the mansion on an errand is the first step for her to resist the unfair fate.

Thinking of this, Liu Guiyuan clenched his fists and said seriously: "Dad, you give me a month, if I can earn five hundred yuan, you will dispel the idea of sending me to Yangfu, and I will earn this every month in the future, you can't sell me." ”

"What are you that dare to talk to you about conditions? I can't sell you yet, I'll beat you to death today! "Liu Chongshan is really popular, no one has ever dared to question his decision, and today he even called a little girl to oppose it three times and twice.

He was angry, picked up the rice spoon on the dining table, and hit Liu Guiyuan's head with a spoon, the thing happened too fast, Liu Guiyuan only felt a pain in his head, and before he could react to what was going on, he was pushed aside by Liu Hongjuo.

Liu Chongshan was still angry, waved the rice spoon and wanted to beat, Liu Hua on the side dragged Liu Chongshan's arm to death, and begged urgently: "Dad, don't fight, longan is better, don't fight stupid again, let outsiders see jokes." ”

Liu Chongshan loves his son first in his life, and he loves face second, and Liu Huahua is only able to persuade him for the second point.

She pushed away her eldest sister Liu Hongjube, endured the dull pain in her head, walked straight to Liu Chongshan and said: "I repeat, I won't go to Yangfu, I, Liu Guiyuan, will not be a girl even if I die, and I will do what I say." You're either going to kill me, and I won't be saved when I'm drowning in the river!" ”

Liu Guiyuan is also completely angry, she was already aggrieved enough to wear this time and space, but now she has to be beaten like this by her original father, she is really embarrassed to death!

Liu Chongshan was hugged tightly by Liu Huasheng, and he couldn't beat people for a while, and suddenly there was a cry, and the Zhang family in the back room dragged the body that was not out of confinement and got out of bed, barely holding on to the door frame between the two rooms and standing up straight, crying and shouting:

"Guiyuan, how dare you say such a thing, you are trying to crush your mother's heart. If you die, how will your mother live? As he spoke, he looked at Liu Chongshan and complained: "How old is she, she is not satisfied at the age of eight, what kind of errand can she enter the mansion?" Reincarnated in my womb, count her fate, if you don't want her, beat her to death. ”

"You still have the face to say, this is the good girl you gave birth to, dare to disobey Lao Tzu. I knew that she was so mixed up, it was just right to fall into the river and drown, and you would take her home! Something that doesn't fight, a useless girl, a waste! ”

"Yes, I'm a waste, I don't have the ability, I didn't give birth to a son to your Liu family." Zhang's tears fell, and he said: "There are a total of four girls, except for one who is breastfeeding, none of the three are idle, are you still not satisfied?" If you are angry in your heart, don't beat the child, I'm always incompetent, if you want to beat me, you will kill me first, and then you can find a capable son! ”

"Okay, all of them are against me, right?" Liu Chongshan waved the rice spoon and pointed at Zhang, and then looked at Liu Guiyuan: "Okay, earn five hundred yuan a month, if you can earn it, you don't have to go to Yang's mansion, if you can't earn it, just wait to enter the mansion as a girl, I don't have money to support you." ”

After saying the cruel words, Liu Chongshan threw away the rice spoon and went out angrily. Zhang, who was leaning against the wall, stared at Liu Guiyuan with teary eyes at this time, and said cryingly: "Guiyuan, our women's lives are hard, no matter how hard you are, it's useless!" You don't know, there are a few daughters in our village, because they can't afford to sell them to others, you just be a child for a few years, and you can still go home. ”

Liu Guiyuan knew that the Zhang family in this era had been biased towards her as much as possible, but she still wanted to explain: "Mother, it is easy to enter the Gaomen Mansion and difficult to get out, if I really go in, this life will be ruined." You say that women's lives are miserable, I don't believe in these, I have to live a good life on my own, and see who still despises us women. ”

Liu Hongzao felt that there was some truth when she heard it, and said helpfully: "Mother, I think that the people of Guiyuan are careful and right-minded, and they dare to think more than me, anyway, she is still young, so give her a chance and let her try it." It's a big deal, peanuts and I eat less and save some rations for longan. ”

Liu Huahua was distressed and went to help Zhang's, and said: "Mother, go in and lie down, still in confinement, you can't see the wind, the lotus seed is still in bed, she can't do without you." ”

After appeasing Zhang, Liu Guiyuan picked up the crooked bench, sat on it and gasped heavily, feeling mixed feelings in his heart for a while.

The result of her willfulness is at the cost of the food and clothing of the eldest sister and the second sister, the two sisters have been paying for this family, and now they will continue to work for her, is she too selfish?

No, Liu Guiyuan shook her head violently, the only way out at the moment is for her to fight her fate first, and when this step is smooth, she will slowly guide the two sisters and her mother Zhang.

But then again, how can she earn five hundred dollars on her own in this place in this era? That's not a small amount.

As far as she knows, a farmer like them who is shaving in the field does not have dozens of dollars in their hands all year round, no wonder Liu Chongshan sent her to work on an errand, and there are 6,000 yuan a year, which is converted into six taels of silver.

Liu Guiyuan mobilized his brain and tried to think of a way, not to mention how to take out the things in his backpack logically, that is, he really took them out and sent them to the pawn shops in the city and town, and it was a problem whether people accepted them or not.

A few changes of clothes, a few bottles of skin care products, some souvenirs bought during travel, these things have never been seen by the pawnshop, how can it be possible to estimate her? In case you see that she is holding a bunch of strange things, it will be more than worth the loss if you lie to her.

In ancient times, peasant families, in addition to cultivating the land all year round, wanted to engage in some side jobs were nothing more than silkworm raising, fishing, digging herbs, especially skilled people, would weave a basket, weave a step shoes, embroider some patterns and send them to the city, what can she do?

"You're really stubborn!" Liu Huaanhua sent Zhang to lie down on the bed, and when he turned around, he counted her down one by one: "You don't want to go out on an errand, tell your father and mother, what is our father's temper, I have already told you, everything has to follow him, you have to fight with him to the end, what good fruit can you eat?" ”

"What's good now, where did you get the ability to get so much money in a month? If you can't get the money, you have to go to the Yang Mansion obediently, in case the Yang Mansion can't go, our father will look at you even more unpleasantly. ”

Liu Hongzao cleaned up the table on the side and interjected: "Okay, don't talk about her, she doesn't feel good in her heart." Walked up to Liu Guiyuan, touched her head and said, "Guiyuan, you see that when your father comes back and dissipates his anger, you go and compensate him, let's beg him again to see if we can stop going." ”

"Eldest sister and second sister, I know you are kind, let me be quiet first." Liu Guiyuan was a little annoyed at this time, she should have extended the period of earning money, after all, one month is too short, and it is not enough for her to be familiar with the situation here.

"Think about it at home, I'm going to East Lake to hunt pigweed." Liu Huaanhua saw that she couldn't listen, and she was also angry in her heart, and she was about to leave with a dung basket outside.

"Second sister, wait, take me to East Lake to have a look." Liu Guiyuan doesn't want to sit still, it's better to go out and take a look, maybe there will be a way to make money.

Liu Huahua walked in front with a dung basket on his back, bowing his head from time to time to pick up two handfuls of wild vegetables, and Liu Guiyuan followed slowly and looked around.

The direction of East Lake is all the way to the east, passing through crooked cottages, turning along the winding path, and soon coming to the edge of the green East Lake.

In addition to the villagers' fields, there are also many idle wastelands, which are overgrown with all kinds of weeds, which are very luxuriant, and there are children watching the sheep grazing not far away.

When Liu Huahua arrived at the destination, she didn't care about Liu Guiyuan, put down the dung basket and began to weed, which piece of wild vegetables grew luxuriantly, and shoveled it off with a shovel if she couldn't get rid of it. Liu Guiyuan still had no clue, so he simply continued to walk along the path between the heavens, and walked to a big river.

This big river is spacious enough, the width of the eye is about fifteen meters, the river is rippling, there are a few wild lotus flowers in the center, and there are two locust trees planted on both sides of the riverbank, which are now old and thick, and can be climbed or cooled.

Liu Guiyuan sat under the shade of the tree, the bright sunlight through the thick green shade, sparsely imprinted on her body, for a moment she seemed to return to the carefree childhood, with her friends by the river to touch the snails, with earthworms or reed leaves to fish......

Wait, touch the snail? It's a great idea! She can touch some more, wash them and sell them in the town, although she can't make a lot of money, but no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat.

Besides, there must be fish in this river, she can also make a net, throw it under the current, and wait overnight to ensure that she can catch fish and shrimp!

"Guiyuan, what are you doing, don't fall again!" As soon as Liu Huahua looked up, he couldn't see Liu Guiyuan, so he hurriedly looked around, turned his head and saw her standing on the edge of the Huashi River, hunched over her back to go down, so frightened that she dropped the shovel in her hand, shouting and running.

"Second sister, I'm fine, I want to go down to the river to touch some snails." Liu Guiyuan grinned and comforted the panicked Liu Huaan.

"Oops, it scared the hell out of me!" Liu Huahua raised a slap and slapped Liu Guiyuan's back, and said with palpitations: "You just fell into this Huashi River and almost drowned, did you forget?" If it weren't for our mother to catch you up, would you still have your life? ”

Speaking of Liu Guiyuan's falling into the water, Liu Huaanhua feels evil when she thinks about it now, because she has been stupid since she was a child, Liu Chongshan feels embarrassed, never asks them to take them out, and most of the time is locked up at home.

That day, she remembered that she had just slept with Liu Guiyuan before going out, and closed the somewhat cumbersome wooden door of the hall before leaving, but the stupid Liu Guiyuan opened it, and walked out of the gate to the outside, came to the East Lake by mistake, and finally fell into the Huashi ditch.

From the front of the village to the East Lake Huashigou at the back of the village, the road is overgrown with weeds, and there are many intersecting paths, why did Liu Guiyuan just walk to the front of Huashigou?

"Second sister, what's wrong with you, are you scared by me?" Liu Guiyuan stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her face, a little weak, how did she know that this was the place where she fell into the water.

"It's okay, you won't come here in the future, in case my mother knows that I brought you, you have to worry." Liu Huahua was about to leave, but was dragged by Liu Guiyuan, lying on his ear and saying what she thought.

"Will this work?" Liu Huahua was a little unoptimistic when he heard it, after all, this black snail is less troublesome to eat meat, only the greedy children at home will take a little to eat home, and they will be beaten by their parents.

"Try it, why don't you try it?"
