Chapter 144: Fat Girl
Shen Qingyu has often been thinking about how the story would have ended if they hadn't accidentally passed by there.
Whether it was their arrival that revealed the ending in advance, or whether Jin Fu had long looked down on his life, so he resolutely faced death, which she had no way to know, but this incident gave her a new thought in her heart, she wanted to help the people who were trapped and tortured by "death", which sounded a little strange, but it was her true thoughts, and it was also the first time she had a specific description and expectation of what she wanted to do in the future.
She knows the difficulties she has to face in her choice, but she still won't stop, isn't it something to be proud of to do her best for what she decides?
"Erya? Erya? ”
A girl's voice came from the side, and Shen Qingyu was temporarily pulled out of her deep thoughts.
"What's wrong with you? Been in a daze? The one who spoke was a girl about the same age as Shen Qingyu, the first playmate she met when she came to this Zhuangzi, surnamed Wang, nicknamed Fat Ya.
Fat girl is not fat, but very thin, looking malnourished, when standing with Shen Qingyu, if someone is called fat girl, then everyone will not think that she is the owner of the name.
The fat girl's family lives in a small village around Zhuangzi, and she often comes out to collect firewood at this time, and it is at this time that she meets Shen Qingyu who is going out.
At that time, Shen Qingyu was taking Rao Xue to familiarize herself with the surroundings, and accidentally met this girl of the same age, so they naturally chatted together.
Because Shen Qingyu is second in the family, he has the nickname of Erya, and he often collects firewood with the fat girl nearby these days.
The fat girl looked at the few pieces of firewood that Shen Qingyu had in hand, then looked at the pile she had picked up, and frowned: "How can you pick up such a little firewood every day?" ”
She gritted her teeth and said bitterly, "I'll give you some, right?" In the past few days, she still likes this little friend very much, she thinks that if she goes back with the same results as Erya, she will inevitably be scolded, and the other party will inevitably be the same, so she wants to share some with the other party.
Shen Qingyu was stunned for a moment, and reacted slowly to realize that the fat girl was worried about her, and said with a smile: "It's okay, my eldest brother has picked up enough firewood at home, and it's no problem for you to take these few sticks with me." ”
The fat girl was suspicious: "Really? ”
"Of course, my eldest brother is very good at collecting firewood!" Shen Qingyu said immediately.
Gannan, who had been following in the shadows, felt a little funny, and wondered if he would be happier or more annoyed if he heard this.
The fat girl was happy for a moment with a few more branches, and sighed again, "But I don't want to go home even after I have collected enough firewood." ”
Shen Qingyu felt that this was what the other party wanted to confide in, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The fat girl said: "In the past few days, the adults in the family have been arguing every day, and there has been no stopping for a moment. ”
"The second cousin of the second uncle's family is ten years old this year, and the second uncle suddenly had the idea of sending him to study in the school, saying that the second cousin is smart and will definitely be able to become a big official in the future and bring ...... With the deed family, we will not be ordinary people at that time, which is almost what it means. But the uncle disagreed, he said that his son was the eldest son and grandson, and he didn't have this treatment or anything, and it was impossible for the second cousin to study anyway. ”
"Then the second uncle said that the family made decisions together, and the few people listened to the many people, and they kept making trouble these days, and my father and mother were also annoyed by the noise, and they always looked for an excuse to scold me and get angry."
Shen Qingyu didn't expect that the fat girl's family was not simple, she frowned and didn't say anything, and heard the fat girl continue.
"It's nothing to scold me, but I heard that the second uncle and the second aunt were discussing with my father and mother to sell my sister, saying that they could exchange some money for the second cousin's study. I, I don't want my sister to be sold. ”
The brother sold his daughter because he wanted to provide for his son's education? How can there be such a person.
Of course, Shen Qingyu didn't believe it, and said: "Your father and mother will definitely not agree, how can you sell your daughter because of a few words from your second uncle." ”
The fat girl sighed: "But I think my father and mother are really tempted, my sister is different from ordinary people, her leg is broken, she is not able to move, her father and mother have always disliked her as a drag, always scolding." ”
No wonder the fat girl has an older sister, but she has been coming out alone to collect firewood.
Shen Qingyu asked, "Why do you think your father and mother are tempted, did you hear what they said?" ”
The fat girl thought for a while and whispered: "Father and mother said that it is not easy for a farmer to raise an idler, but it is different for a large family, not to mention that it is not good to walk, even if it can't move, it can be raised, if you can find a place for your sister to support her, the family can also be a lot more comfortable." ”
She said and pointed in one direction, "The second uncle said that he had a friend in that Zhuangzi, and said that the son of a rich and noble family came to the Zhuangzi, and he was worried that no one would call him, so he wanted to sell his sister there." My father said that my sister's leg is not good, can people want it? The second uncle said that my sister is good-looking, and if she is taken care of, everything in her legs and feet is a small problem. ”
Shen Qingyu looked in the direction she pointed, it was where she lived now, she felt that something seemed to be a little wrong, she didn't hear Shen Qinglin say that there were not enough people, not to mention the ones he brought with him, there were also a lot of servants of the Shen family left in the Zhuangzi, how could he still buy people?
Female? Looks good?
Shen Qingyu wavered for a moment, but quickly threw away his suspicions, Shen Qinglin looked old-fashioned and stubborn, he shouldn't be that kind of person.
However, from the fat girl's words, Shen Qingyu felt that the fat girl's parents did not completely treat their daughter as a burden, but really wanted to plan for their daughter's future.
Gan Nan was taken aback when he heard this, except for protecting Shen Qingyu, he spent the rest of his time by Shen Qinglin's side, of course there was no shadow of this matter, I was afraid that someone was doing things outside under Shen Qinglin's name.
In case something not very good happens that hinders Shen Qinglin's reputation, it will be a big deal.
He was thinking about it when he heard that Shen Qingyu had already opened his mouth to inquire, "What is your second uncle's friend doing in that Zhuangzi?" "Listen intently.
The fat girl shook her head and said, "I don't know, the second uncle didn't mention it." ”
Although he didn't hear the result, Gannan was not disappointed, it couldn't be easier to figure out this matter, fortunately, things haven't started yet, and it won't affect anything, but there are inevitably some waves in his heart, whether it is unintentional or artificial, such a thing must not happen again.
At the same time, Shen Qingyu was also thinking, the fat girl's second uncle instigated the fat girl's parents to sell their daughter for money, so the so-called friend was naturally for the fat girl's sister, why did he use the excuse of buying people from a big family, why did he use Shen Qinglin's name?
