Tribal slave slum here.

The newly arrived Han slaves were already injured because of the previous beatings, and because they were tied to the grassland and walked for a long time, they were not given any food or drink.

So it is anti-human to let them arrive at their destination and immediately plunge into heavy labor, and physical overload simply cannot do it.

At this time, in the working crowd, two more people fell down with two more pops.

When someone fell, his head hit the edge of the pot, and blood flowed all over the ground, but the other Han slaves didn't even look at it, and everyone looked like a numb living dead.

Can't look, don't dare to look.

As soon as they dared to glance at the past to feed the water, not only would the whip fall on them, but the man's rations would be deducted from their mouths. and the work of the man who falls today shall be upon them. Whoever dares to look at it will belong to whomever it is.

He himself had to work for nearly ten hours, and only two hours were left to eat, sleep, and if he took over the work of others, he would die in a few days.

The slave owners here believe that exhausting slaves to death is the greatest value of squeezing them dry, and this kind of slaves who will be exhausted to death after a few days of work are already rotten in their own bodies and should be eliminated. Keeping it is also a waste of food.

Even their own tribesmen are the fittest, and they consider it a natural selection.

And whenever someone falls, Xu Youtian's heart is pinched up today.

He was afraid that the next one to fall would be Tian Xin's uncle.

He could see that his brother-in-law Ah Yuan couldn't hold on a little, but as a "manager", he still had to find fault to make matters worse.

Only the more they look down on Ah Yuan, the more comfortable those supervisors will be to arrange for Ah Yuan to live closer to him. I'm going to have to arrange accommodation soon.

And Ah Yuan's performance, if he doesn't do it, others will do it.

Xu Youtian waved the whip in his hand, his wrist tried to control the strength as much as possible, and the whip sound was very loud, accompanied by his scolding voice: "You have to finish it when you kneel, and if you can't finish it, drag it out to feed the wolf!" ”

“…… Yes, yes. Ah Yuan held his head to avoid the whip, his knees weakened, and he immediately knelt on the ground.

He guessed that his brother-in-law was trying to remind him, so he stood still and quickly knelt down to do it.

That night, Ah Yuan was assigned to a place a little closer to Xu Youtian, and as long as he could hide from the slaves who were higher than them, that is, from the Han slaves who taught the Chinese language of the tribe, he could see the slaves "in charge" of his brother-in-law.

His brother-in-law has already mixed in with the management, Ah Yuan spent two days observing, the position where his brother-in-law lives seems to be no longer a real slave, there is a single room, and four dry food a day without soil and sawdust are distributed to the bowl of vegetable soup.

Two days later, in the second half of the night, Ah Yuan was almost scared to death by his brother-in-law.

"Don't rub your back against the stone, hold it close to me." Ah Yuan has blood on his back.

Xu Youtian covered his brother-in-law's mouth with one hand, so that he couldn't scream, and while taking Ah Yuan to avoid everyone's surveillance, he found a proper place to speak.

There was still an hour left, and those men were going to get up and supervise the work and nod their heads.

Uncle Tian Xin was shocked, even if it was dark, he couldn't see anything clearly, but his brother-in-law's speed made him feel that he was not missing a foot.

It's still there, isn't it? Even if he was hot, he could feel that his brother-in-law was running fast......

"Don't touch it, it's gone, get down to business."

The first thing to do was that Xu Youtian dragged Ah Yuan, who was checking his feet, and gave Ah Yuan a dry food from his rations, so that he could eat it quickly, with the salt and sugar water he had soaked in advance. The sugar melted the Oreo cookie filling. Salt and sugar water for energy.

The reason why I gave one was because Xu Youtian had to set aside "dried buns" every day, so as not to run out of food on the way to escape in the future.

While using the purification tablets prepared in advance, purified water, Ah Yuan cleaned and wiped the wound. He gave his brother-in-law half a packet of herbs he had saved: "Chew and eat, your body is too hot." ”

As for why the brother-in-law is here.

Ah Yuan has always remembered what Xu Youtian used to say, there is no prodigal son in the family, where does the wealth come from.

Tian Xin's grandmother was diagnosed with a very serious illness after the Chinese New Year last year, and after asking, she had to prepare at least thirty taels to barely get enough money for medicine, and she couldn't cure it, so she went to the big city in the south to see, saying that the medicine was also cheap.

Ah Yuan reconciled and left, his daughter-in-law was good-looking, and the person was better, he gave the house that was only worth three taels of silver to his wife, so that while he was only twenty-one years old, his mother-in-law had asked his daughter-in-law to run, saying that he had already told the next family, Ah Yuan gritted his teeth and took the old lady out of the town and ran to the south.

When leaving, Ah Yuan thought that the poor would die with his mother, and he would not be saved at home anyway.

If you can earn a few more trips to the bloodthirsty money, the rich will return to the hometown after treating her mother's illness. If his wife is already married for the second time, he will throw some money and let him continue to live a good life with that person, but he must have private money, and stop being single-minded with men.

Go to Erdaohe again, he has never dared to show up for so many years, he imagines a niece who is really an uncle, and can have the confidence to say to Mrs. Xu, aunt, these years, my sister and brother-in-law are gone, and it is not easy for you to pull Tian Xin to grow up. He kowtowed, threw some silver coins, and dared to say to his niece: "I will go to my uncle if I have something to do in the future." Before, your grandmother was going to cry blind when she thought about you, but she didn't dare to look at you, and the family was too poor at that time. ”

Ah Yuanzhao planned, and relied on Xu Youtian's memory of smuggling goods before and fleeing to check the city documents, and successfully arrived at the relatively chaotic big city. After several beatings and several tests of helping to kill, he gained the trust of the leader.

The first time he sold goods, including the reward for helping to kill people before, he earned fifty taels of silver, bought thirty taels of medicine for his mother, which he could eat for half a year, and the remaining twenty taels used ten taels to buy a lot of food and pay the rent. Ten taels to the mother for fear of an emergency, let him wait, this trip will be back for half a year, and when he comes back, he can bring back another fifty taels.

Then they would go home to see their mother's longing granddaughter.

It was dawn, and what Ah Yuan and Xu Youtian didn't know at this time was that Xu Tianxin was receiving a gift from other places in Erdaohe.

Because after Ah Yuan left, the old lady gave the medicine boy the benefit fee, and secretly asked the medicine boy about her illness, do you have to continue to take another 30 taels after taking the 30 taels of medicine? got the answer that she had guessed in her heart, the old lady was getting sicker and sicker, and she thought why she should drag down her son.

I don't toss to go back to see my granddaughter, take a look, and the cost of eating and drinking all the way is also big. I simply saved it for my granddaughter.

It just so happened that there was a young man who was very good with her son, who often helped Ah Yuan to see her and told her to take medicine.

The old lady gave him all the money in her hand with confidence, refunded the rent, packed up the food and brought it to her granddaughter, and let her tell her grandmother that she was in a hurry before and did not say hello, and now she is enjoying her happiness in the field.

Then the old lady felt that it was time for the sun to go down, so she found a place closer to the yamen, and did not eat or drink in the midst of the people, and died of illness by herself without eating or drinking.

She thought that there would be a servant who would have to collect her body, so that she could give Ah Yuan a sum of burial silver. The yamen will not waste money on inspections for a small role like her, and will directly conclude that she died of illness, and she was already sick. When her family Ah Yuan comes back, she won't be too sad.

Xu Tianxin was asking the visitor: "My grandmother, let you pass it on to me?!" ”

"Yes, you are Xu Tianxin, your grandmother said in Jincheng that she was very worried about you, so I must pass it on to you."

In addition to the silver money and grain, there are also two small flowers that Tian Xin's grandmother bought for Tian Xin, which are new and new. (End of chapter)
