Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Great Event

"Hmph, I think she is becoming more and more rampant now, she even doesn't care about her father and mother when she gets married, she just wants to drive us away, she can't tell who her relatives are, and she is better for the wild seeds she picked up than for us."

Xiang Yue wiped away tears as he spoke, not thinking about whether what he was doing was something that a mother could do.

Xiang Li Chang was also annoyed in his heart, and he gritted his teeth and cursed when he heard Xiang Yue's words: "Hey, it's really a white-eyed wolf who can't be fed, this time we have to find a way to sell her no matter what, and then we can go into the city smoothly to have a good meal and a good place to live." ”

When he said this, he didn't have the slightest guilt or hesitation in his heart, in his opinion, Xiang Jiuling was his daughter, and his blood was flowing on her body, so it should be handled by him, and there could be no objection.

In front of outsiders, he didn't forget to count Luoxiang Jiuling: "The one who has no conscience, her mother just asked her to find something to eat, but she drove us away, regardless of whether we live or die." ”

People who don't know the inside story have listened to the words of Xiang's father and mother, and then said that Xiang Jiuling is not.

Soon, the person Xiangmu was looking for before brought news: "I told that person about your daughter's appearance and age, and the other party was very satisfied and was willing to pay fifty taels to buy her as a concubine." ”

Fifty taels?

Hearing this number, Xiangmu's heart suddenly blossomed, and the depression in her heart also decreased by more than half, a full fifty taels, which is the income of ordinary people for many years.

With this money, their family of three would be able to go to the city and enjoy their happiness.

Xiangli was also a little excited, and he nodded again and again: "Okay, it's her blessing that someone looks at her, you go back and tell him, and we'll send people over when the time comes." ”

"Okay, it's decided, this matter can't be sloppy, that old man is not someone you and I can offend."

After the man left, the couple looked at each other and smiled, and quickly observed the location of Xiang Jiuling's family, for fear that it would be difficult to deal with the person when the time came.

Xiang Jiuling, who had already been sold, didn't know that danger was coming, and he was still doing his best to help the children eat.

The sun would set, and the dim light would fall on her, gilding her with a gentle light, and a face would look like a cloud.

Wen Xi looked at her side face and couldn't help but be stunned, he didn't seem to have taken a serious look at her yet.

"What, there's something on my face?"

Looking up at Wen Xi's gaze, Xiang Jiuling unconsciously reached out and touched her cheek, and doubts appeared in her eyes.

Wen Xi paused slightly, and looked away: "You have a leaf on your head." ”

It's not a lie, she does have a withered leaf on her head, and from a distance, it looks like a natural headdress.

He looked away and said that he would go back to find some firewood, but Xiang Jiuling didn't stop him, now that the weather is getting colder and colder this night, he needs to pick up more firewood.

Who knew that not long after Wen Xi left, Xiangyue hurriedly came over.

"What are you doing again?"

Dabao frowned and stared at her vigilantly, he didn't like Xiangmu, he thought she was more cunning than a weasel, and he liked to sell their hard-earned food.

Xiang Yue didn't want to pay attention to a child, and only looked at Xiang Jiuling: "Xiao Jiu, there is a happy event, it is a great happy event." ”

Just hearing this, Xiang Jiuling felt that something was wrong, they didn't have any happy event, and disappearing in front of her was the biggest happy event.

"It's a good thing that you're not here."

was stabbed, Xiang Yue couldn't help but be angry, but as long as she thought that as long as she got the fifty taels of silver, her family could enter the city, and she endured it again.

"Hey, what did you say about this child, how can there be parents in this world who don't love their children, my father and I think your life is miserable, we can't bear to see you suffer, so we discussed, so we specially asked someone to find you a good family. The other party is a rich landowner, as long as you marry in the past, you can enjoy happiness, you wear gold and silver, and keep you comfortable, it must be better than the current days of no fixed residence. ”

It turned out that this was the happy event in her mouth, Xiang Jiuling's eyes narrowed slightly, she didn't speak, and just looked at her quietly.

Although Sanni was young, she also sensed that something was wrong: "No, my mother can't leave us, we are together!" ”

"You...... What do you little girl know, you are cumbersome, do you know what cumbersome means? ”

Listening to her talk more and more, Xiang Jiuling suddenly said: "Don't say this in front of the children, you come with me, let's talk slowly to the side." ”

Erbao was also a little anxious suddenly, and grabbed Xiang Jiuling's sleeve.

"Mother!"

Unconsciously, he also became dependent on her, and she couldn't go with them or marry someone else.

Seeing Erbao like this, Xiang Jiuling smiled slightly, and patted his little hand soothingly, "Okay, good, I'll come over and get you food later, you play first, don't run around." ”

After a cup of tea, Xiang Yue couldn't help but scold: "This is a family affair that we finally found for you, but you refused, where is this up to you, we will come tomorrow." ”

"You seem to have forgotten that I am married, and you set it for me in the first place."

Xiang Jiuling replied lightly, she didn't remember the original incident very clearly, but she also knew that her marriage with Wen Xi was also forced by the Xiang family, and now she still wants to repeat her old tricks.

Xiang Yue's clan naturally didn't listen to this, they decided to follow Xiang Jiuling first, anyway, the left and right people can't run, and it's not easy to find food at the moment, there are people fleeing the famine everywhere, and they can't go, the best way is to go into the city, otherwise it's the same everywhere.

Wen Xi had already come back when Xiang Jiuling went back, but he didn't ask anything, Xiang Jiuling naturally didn't say anything, Xiang Yue's words were just a joke.

was lighting a fire and preparing to cook, when he saw Liu Yao running over in a hurry, "Oh no, no!" ”

Seeing that Liu Yao's family was so anxious, Xiang Jiuling hurriedly stepped forward to support her, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?" Don't rush, just take your time! ”

Liu Yao's eyes were full of panic, and he pointed not far away, panting for a long time and unable to say a word.

"Yes...... There are bandits! ”

"What?"

Xiang Jiuling looked at Liu Yao's finger in shock, but he didn't see anything, so he could only ask, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, say slowly, where are the bandits?" ”

Liu Yao slowly stabilized his breathing under Xiang Jiuling's comfort, and hurriedly told what he saw.

It turned out that she went to the mountains to look for food, but she saw a lot of bandits chasing and killing the people, but fortunately she reacted quickly and hid, otherwise she would have been murdered.

Xiang Jiuling, who heard the news, was also a little heavy, in this troubled world, those bandits are all characters who kill people without blinking, if they find out where they are hiding now, they don't know what chaos will happen at that time.
