On the official road outside Fukuzawa Village.

Two figures, one big and one small, walked and stopped.

Seeing that his daughter stopped again, Liu Shu frowned and walked over: "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Daddy, I... I've got pebbles in my shoes. Song Min took off the dirty cloth shoes on his feet and poured out the pebbles in the shoes.

In fact, this small pebble was secretly put in by Song Min while Liu Shu was not paying attention.

"Okay, hurry up."

Seeing Song Min slowly putting on his shoes, Liu Shu scolded lightly.

As a result, not long after the two left, Liu Shu looked back and saw Song Min squatting down again, covering his stomach, looking uncomfortable, and his eyebrows were raised directly: "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Daddy, I... My stomach hurts and I want to go to the hut. Song Min's eyes were a little evasive.

Liu Shu couldn't see Song Min's little trick, and completely lost his patience, dragged her squatting to stand up, and said, "Hold it first, and when you enter the county seat, I will find a place for you to relieve yourself." ”

After speaking, he pulled Song Min forward.

"Daddy, it hurts... It hurts..."Liu Shu grabbed too hard, the child's wrist was already tender, Song Min shouted that it hurt, and tears came out.

Liu Shu pretended not to hear, regardless of it, and forcibly pulled Song Min forward.

Seeing that there was no way at all, Song Min couldn't hold back any longer, and cried: "Daddy, I don't want to enter the county, don't enter the county, Daddy... Please, please don't sell me, I will listen to you well in the future, and I will never make my father angry again......"

Liu Shu paused, looked back at Song Min's pitiful appearance, and felt a little unbearable in his heart, but thinking that keeping her could only be a burden to himself, wasting food, and selling it to Qinglou for some money, he immediately relented, but he didn't say it too directly, but said:

"Daddy won't sell you, just take you to a fun place where you can eat and wear without worry."

"But I... Didn't want to go there, just wanted to stay with Daddy. ”

"If you don't go, you have to go, it's not up to you." Liu Shu lost the last trace of patience and showed an angry face, and then no matter how Song Min cried or struggled, Liu Shu didn't care anymore, and dragged her forward.

"Stop." At this moment, a loud cheer came from behind.

The voice was extremely familiar, Liu Shu looked back, and saw that it was really Chen Mo, and his expression froze instantly.

When Chen Mo approached and saw the knife in his hand, Liu Shu's face turned pale, and he quickly let go of Song Min, who was still crying, and sneered: "Brother Mo, Brother Shui, why are you here?" ”

Chen Mo looked at Song Min, whose eyes were swollen from crying, and his red wrists, he couldn't help frowning, and said in a low voice, "Where are you going?" ”

"I... I took Min'er into the city to play. Liu Shu said.

Chen Mo looked at Song Min, who wiped his tears, nodded, and whispered, "Daddy is going to take me... Go into town and play. ”

Children don't lie.

The deception here means that it is easy to see.

Chen Mo could see at a glance that Song Min was lying.

He took Song Min aside, then squatted down and touched Song Min's head: "Min'er, you tell Brother Mo, why are you crying, is your father bullying you?" ”

"No, no?"

"Then why are you crying like this, is it that your father doesn't want you anymore, you tell Brother Mo the truth, maybe Brother Mo can help you persuade your father." Chen Mo said with a smile.

Song Min pursed his lips lightly, snorted, and looked at Liu Shu.

Liu Shu naturally heard Chen Mo's words, and his expression suddenly panicked.

"What, your daddy is going to sell you!" Chen Mo brought his ear close to Song Min, and then raised his tone sharply.

When Zhang He heard this, he immediately kicked over.

Zhang He has been exercising with Chen Mo for so long, there are fish and meat every day, that strength is not a joke, Liu Shu was directly kicked to the ground.

Zhang He said viciously: "If you draft it, you even sell your own daughter, you are still not a human being." ”

"Ahem..." Liu Shu covered his chest and coughed painfully, he thought that his daughter had told Chen Mo, so he didn't quibble immediately, and said with a few courages: "I sold my own daughter, what does it matter to you?" ”

"You still dare to be cross-ferving." Zhang He shouted fiercely, saying that he was about to kick it over, but at this time, Song Min ran over, protected Liu Shu's face, and said, "Don't beat my father, don't..."

But Liu Shu didn't appreciate it, he didn't dare to be fierce against Chen Mo and Zhang He, but he dared to say to Song Min: "You are so obedient?" ”

Song Min pinched the corner of his clothes: "Daddy, I... Didn't say. ”

"Stop." Chen Mo asked Zhang He to stop, then walked over and said, "Min'er didn't say it, I guessed it, but I didn't expect it to be true." ”

He came to Liu Shu and said in a low voice: "I don't understand, I gave you two times of food, which is enough for the two of you to eat for two months, and you don't have to worry about food and clothing, why do you still sell your daughter?" ”

Liu Shu was afraid of Chen Mo's obscenity and was silent.

"Damn, Brother Mo asked you." Zhang He snorted.

"It's useless for me to want her, she has done everything, and she is dragging me down, it's completely a burden, why can't I sell it?" Saying that, Liu Shuhe glanced at Chen Mo weakly: "I gave it to you two days ago, but you don't want it." ”

"Hey, you still dare to blame Brother Mo, and it is reasonable to dare you to sell your daughter." Zhang He rolled up his sleeves.

The Great Song Dynasty had a clear law, and it was illegal to buy and sell wives and daughters.

But the law is the law, and it is very common for people to sell wives and daughters, as long as they are not human traffickers engaged in trafficking, they also belong to the people, and the officials will not be prosecuted.

"Daddy..."Liu Shu's words brought tons of hurt to Song Min's heart.

When Chen Mo heard this, his eyes were closed.

He originally thought that Liu Shu was just a lazy man, and felt that by receiving their food, Liu Shu could take his daughter to live well, and it was precisely because of this that he would refuse when Liu Shu brought his daughter to get married.

After all, he really didn't have any thoughts about a ten-year-old girl.

And because of the shame of the Song family, Chen Mo couldn't bear to accept a little girl as a maid, but hoped that she could grow up and live like a normal child.

But he never expected that Liu Shu, as Song Min's biological father, would actually sell his biological daughter.

After all, with his help, the Song family has not reached the point where they can't survive.

His small gesture can make such a big difference.

This reminded him of Chen Dalin and Chen Hu.

If he had lent grain to Chen Dalin in the first place, the latter might not have gone to poach fishing and would not have died.

If Chen Hu hadn't been killed, the Song family would not have suffered this disaster.

In such a troubled world, he felt how powerless he was.

A grain of sand in the times is a mountain on the shoulders of individuals.

He tried to knock it down, but it caused even more suffering.
