The father who sells his sons and daughters XIX
At night, a family of four lay on a wooden bed, a little crowded but warm.
The two children were already asleep tired, only Yun Fei and Qin Shi were still with their eyes open, looking at the thatched roof.
She suddenly said loudly: "Boss, do you say that I am really the daughter of this family?" If I wasn't, would Qin Xing still be waiting for her family to find her. ”
"First of all, you have to consider whether you are willing to accept these sudden family members, and if you want to accept it, then go out and see more in the next few days.
Maybe when you meet a familiar person or thing, you can think of something. ”
As for not having any impression of this courtyard, it is not surprising, after all, after she was lost, Qin Dazhuang and they were assigned to live here.
"What do you think of them, boss?"
Yun Fei thought for a moment and said: "At present, although the family is poor, they are quite simple and kind, and it can be seen that they are really guilty of their daughters. ”
"I think so too, especially at dinner today, my heart! It hurts, it hurts. ”
"Well, if you want to admit it, you can admit it, anyway, if you want to settle down again, it's the same wherever you fall."
Yun Fei's words undoubtedly calmed the heart of the Qin family to the greatest extent.
Oh, yes! If it's really family, then admit it, if not, it doesn't matter, she still has her husband and children.
…………
The next day, when they woke up, there was already movement in the courtyard.
Qin hurriedly got up and ran to the stove room, wanting to help Xiao Liu cook porridge.
Xiao Liu smiled lovingly: "You don't need you here, just let my mother come, go back to the house and rest, and my mother will warm the water for washing your face in the pot." ”
Qin squatted down a little embarrassed to help light the fire, "I can't sleep, I'll help you light the fire." ”
At this time, Qin Lin had already struggled to carry a load of well water back, and also asked the Qin family to go back to the house to rest, "Eldest sister, you can go back to the house to rest!" It's all home, so there's no need for you to do all this work.
Third brother! Did you finish feeding the chickens? After feeding, hurry up and help my mother light the fire. ”
"Your three brothers, now that they are all older, they can help my mother with a lot of work! You don't have to worry about this, go back to the house and wait for your aunt and the children. ”
Under the urging of Xiao Liu's loving gaze, Qin could only return to the house helplessly.
Yunfei had already gotten up and was getting dressed, and the two children were still asleep in bed, their faces were all over the place, and they slept soundly.
It's a bit of a roll in ancient times! He, a worker, didn't get up so early.
"You can sleep with the kids in the house, I'll help."
The farmhouse yard was small, and there was no soundproofing to speak of, and he could already hear their conversation.
"Okay."
"Don't think too much about it, let's walk around the village later and see if we can think of something."
………
Yun Fei saw that the water tank was already full, so he simply went to the backyard to help chop firewood.
He has great strength, and with that somewhat blunt wood knife, he can chop firewood quickly and neatly.
Qin Mu was beside him, and said with some envy: "Brother-in-law, you have so much strength. ”
"Haha! Ok, natural. ”
"If only I had the strength......
Yun Fei smiled, continued to wave the firewood knife, did not continue the topic, and instead asked about some situations in the village.
"Our village, it's almost an hour's walk from the town, I haven't been to Fucheng, I heard that it's two hours' foot.
The people in the village don't have much to make a living, just farming, and when it's not busy farming, the men go to the town to find work.
There is a big river near us, and there is a wharf in the town, and we often ask people to do the work, and when our family is busy with spring planting, I will also go to the wharf to pick up some work. ”
"What about your second and third brothers? What do you usually do? ”
From Qin Mu's mouth, he learned that he usually followed the villagers to work in the town.
And Qin Lin is responsible for taking care of the two acres of land that the family has obtained, as well as the two acres of poor land that he has cultivated.
He is also in charge of growing vegetables at home.
The housework is all done by Xiao Liu, Qin Sen often helps, and he is responsible for staying at home and taking care of his father and mother.
After all, their mother's eyes are not good, and they are afraid that she will be too busy to take care of her father at home.
When Xiao Liu is free, he will let her take care of her father, and he will go to the foot of the mountain to dig some wild vegetables to feed the chickens, or catch some insects, pick some wild fruits and the like.
In short, everyone has their own work, although they are not rich, but the family is very harmonious.
………
The multigrain porridge eaten by the Qin family in the morning was paired with Xiao Liu's own pickled side dishes, and what was made for them was the brown rice porridge cooked with chicken soup and chicken leftover from yesterday.
The rice porridge is a little greasy and a bit of a throat scrape.
However, the Qin family and the two children ate very fragrantly, after all, their previous days were probably not as good as this.
If there is something delicious, you have to give priority to the original body.
After breakfast, everyone went to get busy, and Yunfei and Qin took the two children around the village.
Let's see if the Qin clan can think of something more.
A family of four, passing by many houses along the way, also met some villagers, and said a few polite words in a friendly manner.
"What's your impression?"
Qin shook his head and said with some disappointment: "It feels familiar, but I can't remember it." ”
The two continued to walk until they came to a mud farm at the west end of the village.
There was a peach tree growing out of the fence yard in the yard.
It was also when he saw this tree that Qin remembered something in his mind that he couldn't remember clearly.
It was winter, and there were a lot of people coming in and out of the yard.
There were still many people crying, and she sat under the tree in fear, until an old woman walked in and glared at her with resentment.
She didn't remember what happened after that, but she remembered that she was locked up in a dark room where there were many children about her age.
was abused, beaten, disciplined, and refused to eat if he couldn't learn the rules.
When she was ten years old, she was sold to a rice shop, and the shopkeeper's wife became pregnant and needed a maid to do housework.
She was named Xiaocui.
I took care of my wife for three years, and then my wife's child died of fever, and people went crazy.
The shopkeeper sold her to the shopkeeper again, and the deceased father-in-law saw that she was honest and cowardly, so he bought her home and gave her to the father-in-law as a wife.
With the status of a slave like hers, it is already a gift from heaven for someone to be willing to let her be a wife and change back to the status of a good citizen.
Where did she get the face to complain that she didn't do things.
………
After remembering some of the pictures, Qin Shi excitedly pulled Yun Fei and said, "Master, I remember...... When I was a kid, I really lived here.
It's this house, it's the tree, and there's a very scary old woman. ”
At this moment the door of the wooden courtyard was pushed open, and a somewhat plump old woman came out, and after a few puzzled glances.
Cai said disdainfully: "Yo, this is an apricot!" I haven't seen you for so many years, why do you look as poor and sour as your father. ”
It's still disgusting, fanning the smell that doesn't exist in the air.
