Chapter 517: Slums
It's too dirty here, there is no good road under your feet, and there was a little light rain last night, and the yellow mud path is full of mottled footprints.
Su Ying didn't want the two children to follow, but Xiao Ying didn't get in the way.
His original words were, "One is the eldest princess, the other is the eldest son of the emperor, they can't only see countless prosperity, they should know the suffering of the people." ”
Su Ying felt that Xiao Yan still had some ideas in terms of education.
The husband and wife took the child's hand and walked along the path, Xiao Yan walked in the middle of these houses, directly a head taller than these houses, how can this place be comfortable.
"You dead girl, don't lose money, you don't want to work every day and think about eating, I knew you were so useless when I was born, I should have drowned you in a urine bucket!"
"Ah, mother, don't fight, I didn't steal sweet potatoes, I didn't steal my brother's sweet potatoes."
They didn't go far before they heard a shouting and scolding in front of them, and suddenly, a thin figure rushed towards this side, maybe she was trying to dodge the people behind her, but she didn't notice Su Ying and them, and they bumped into Xiao Yan's leg at once.
Seeing this, the forbidden army behind immediately stepped forward vigilantly, and Xiao Shen waved his hand to signal that they didn't need to be nervous.
"Ouch!"
The skinny girl was about to fall to the ground as soon as she stumbled, but Su Ying quickly scooped her up to prevent her from colliding with the stones on the ground.
It's just that when she grabbed the little girl's arm, she was still shocked by her thinness.
The little girl looked at Su Ying's eyes, and was so frightened that she broke free from Su Ying's hand and retreated again and again.
"You dead girl still dare to run, see if I don't kill you!" The scolding woman chased after them, and without noticing Su Ying, she raised the broom in her hand and hit the little girl.
"Ahh Mother, don't fight, don't fight. The little girl screamed in pain.
Su Ying frowned slightly, thought about it and reached out to stop the woman, "What mistake did she make?" ”
The woman raised her head to look at her when she heard Su Ying's voice, and when she saw her clean eyes, she shrank a little, which came from the inferiority complex in her bones.
"She, she's stealing her brother's sweet potato."
"I, I didn't, I didn't steal it, yes, it was my brother who finished eating it himself, I didn't steal it......"
"You still said you didn't steal it, so where did your brother's sweet potatoes go?"
Su Ying blink an eye saw a boy who looked younger behind him, and found that he still had the residue of sweet potatoes on his mouth, he walked up to the woman and grimaced at the little girl, his eyes were full of pride, and he seemed to be very satisfied with the girl's lesson.
"Lie and deceive people, and you're not afraid that wild dogs will eat you?"
The little boy glanced at Su Ying and shrank behind the woman timidly, "I, I'm not lying. ”
"Not lying, where did the sweet potato dregs in your mouth come from?"
When the little boy heard this, he quickly reached out to wipe his mouth, Su Ying knew that he deliberately framed the little girl.
At the beginning of man, nature is evil, and it is so.
The woman also realized that she had wronged the girl, but she still stiffened her neck and said, "You money-losing goods don't work all day long, you want to run out to play and be lazy, see if I don't kill you!" ”
This time, Su Ying directly dodged the woman's broom and threw it to the ground, "You already know that it's not her fault, but you still don't want to let her go, she is also a person, not your punching bag." ”
The woman was annoyed and angry by what Su Ying said, "She eats me and drinks mine, what happened to me when I beat her?" If it weren't for me, she would have died. ”
"If it weren't for you, she wouldn't have come to this world to suffer!"
"You, who are you, why do you care about my family's affairs, if you want to care, then spend money to buy her, buy it back, you can do whatever you want to do to her, even if you treat her as a baby, no one will say anything about you."
As soon as the little girl heard that her mother was going to sell her, she cried and begged and grabbed her leg and shouted: "Mother, mother, please don't sell me, I won't eat it, I will eat a sweet potato a day in the future, please don't sell me." ”
Su Ying even saw a look of anticipation in the woman's eyes, "Are you willing to go with me?" ”
The little girl looked at Su Ying's eyes full of strangeness.
Dabao and Erbao's brows are furrowed tightly, they have experienced exile and were almost sold at the beginning, so they can especially empathize with the little girl's experience.
"Don't be afraid, my aunt is a good person, if you are willing to go with us, you will be able to eat enough in the future."
may be children of the same age, looking at Dabao and them, the little girl is not so scared, especially when she heard that she could eat enough, she subconsciously swallowed her saliva.
"But, can you eat enough?"
"Yes, you can eat to your heart's content, there is rice, and meat buns, they are delicious."
The little girl was moved.
The woman took the opportunity to offer the price, saying, "Buy five taels of silver if you want." ”
"It's not so expensive for me to buy an adult, two taels, and there won't be more for one."
But the woman said forcefully, "No, not even one or two." ”
"Then don't buy it."
Su Ying looked at the woman's eyes with weakness, but she still pretended to be tough, she no longer bargained, pulled Dabao and they turned around and left.
When the woman saw Su Ying and them leaving, she was a little panicked, but she didn't want the duck in her hand to fly, so she hurriedly said that she would sell it.
Su Ying didn't look back, but asked the forbidden army to do it, and the sale of human beings also had to be registered.
"After the people are taken away, they will be placed in the academy, and put them in the youngest class."
"Yes."
"Do you want to go?" When something like this happens, their mood becomes bad.
"Let's go."
Xiao Shen answered, picked up Erbao and continued to walk down.
The more you walk, the narrower the path becomes, and occasionally you can see children playing on the path outside, all of them are dirty, with two tubes of snot hanging under their noses, and they are staring at Su Ying with big black eyes.
Most of these houses were old people, women and children, and the adult men should have gone to look for things to do during the day, so they didn't see much.
"Huh? Isn't that the older sister who bought the cake in the morning? Sister? ”
When Su Ying heard the sound, she turned around and saw the little girl who was selling cakes in the morning, she remembered, her name was the moon.
"It's Sister Moon."
Moon smiled and walked up to them with some doubts, "Sister, do you also live here?" ”
Su Ying shook her head, "No, just passing by here to have a look." ”
"That's just right, my sister came to my house to be a guest, my mother said that she wanted to make sweet dates for us to eat, and the sweet dates made by my mother are better than those sold in the dim sum shop, my sister came to taste them."
The Moon family lives here, and they must know more about the situation here, she glanced at Xiao Ash, Xiao Ash nodded, and they followed the Moon with two treasures.
"Dad, mother, there are guests at home."
