Chapter 169: One-Sided Suffering

Misfortune and blessing are relied upon, and blessing and misfortune are lurking.

Parting from her master, Xiao Wu had not yet come out of her grief, and her father was escorted home by a fat woman with four servants.

I haven't seen him for more than two years, Zhen Guang is thin and only has a skeleton left, and at first glance, Xiao Wu almost didn't recognize it, but seeing that his father was still alive, Xiao Wu was still happy in his heart.

The fat woman shook her fan, swayed into the courtyard, sat on a stool that had just been wiped by a servant, her eyes rolled around, and finally landed on Xiao Wu.

When the four eyes met together, they all looked at each other fixedly, a pair of eyes were clear and translucent, with questions and anger, and a pair of eyes were full of vicissitudes, revealing sophistication and cunning.

"Let it go! bastard, ahem, ahem......"

Niang's hoarse voice attracted Xiao Wu's attention, and when she looked back, she saw that Niang was rudely carried out of the house by two servants.

"Mother, stop it......"

Xiao Wu stepped forward angrily, raised his cane twice and knocked the two servants over, squatted down, and sat against the wall with a worried and frightened face.

Xiao Wu turned her head, angry like an enraged little beast, glared at the fat woman angrily, gritted her teeth and said word by word: "You guys, want, what, what?"

A series of beautiful movements surprised the fat woman and the four servants, the skinny little girl actually knew martial arts?

Uncle Lu Xu, Aunt Chen, and neighbors all rushed over one after another and began to point fingers at Sun Erniang.

The fat woman waved her hand to stop the two defeated servants, and was raising her fist to fight back against Xiao Wu, she glanced at the gray Zhen Guang, and said contemptuously: "Yo, I didn't expect it, you old gambler, and such a powerful daughter, hurry up...... I said that my mother is still busy."

In the past three years, Zhen Guang not only spent all of it, sold Xiao Wu as a child daughter-in-law, took away the money from the donkey at Boss Qian's house, but also owed money for gambling houses and spending a lot of money, he was forced to sell himself, became a lowly person, and became a house slave without freedom.

The fat woman is the second master of the drunken flower building, known as Sun Erniang. She values scholars, and the year before, she took a high look at Zhen Guang, raised him to settle accounts by her side, and waited for him closely.

But Zhen Guang couldn't support the wall with mud, he was greedy for wine, gambling and sex, and his body was sick, and he was finally rejected by Sun Erniang.

One day, Sun Erniang was shaking a fan and was leisurely patrolling around, and the whispers of several girls entered her ears.

"Hey, have you heard? The old gambler Zhen Guang has a daughter, who said that she has the ability to never forget, and a few days ago, she was ...... by a nobleman considered him an apprentice, and said that the noble man was extremely rich, and a jasper flute for the little girl alone was said to be worth a fortune."

"Really, what kind of incense did the old gambler burn?

It was originally a short gossip among the villagers' parents, but somehow it was spread to Fengcheng, and spread in the Huamanlou where the news was flying.

felt that Zhen Guang was sick and useless, as soon as Sun Erniang heard it, she wanted to get the jade flute, her big boss is an elegant person, and she likes these elegant things the most, if you dedicate it to the big boss, you will definitely be able to please him.

On the second day, Sun Erniang took her servants and bumped all the way to force debts.

Hearing Sun Erniang's command, Zhen Guang peeked at her, and when he saw that her face was full of fierceness, he approached Xiao Wu like a mouse seeing a cat, and looked at his daughter, who had grown a lot taller, his mouth moved a few times, but he still didn't say anything.

"You, what's the grind?"

Zhen Guang was frightened by Sun Erniang's voice, and he had no choice but to speak, "Xiao Wu, I heard that Taoist priest, recognize you...... As an apprentice, he must ...... I'll leave you money, you save Dad, okay......? Helped Dad redeem himself and went to the lowly status, otherwise, Dad ...... Only, there is a dead end".

Zhen Guang said sadly, stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Wu's hand, like grasping a life-saving straw, and his eyes were full of sorrow and pleading.

Before, the Taoist chief had kept money, and this time he recognized the apprentice, and he would leave even more money, which Zhen Guang can fully confirm.

The mother sitting at the door of the house listened, coughed angrily, gasped, and pointed at Zhen Guang to scold.

"You are a slasher, you even sell your daughter, you are not worthy of being a father! cough cough cough...... Xiao Wu, don't listen to his nonsense, is it dead or alive...... Let him go, you get out, get out! We don't have any money! No, cough cough cough ......."

Sun Erniang shook her fan, looked at Xiaowu's mother and daughter proudly, and the demon said, "Hey, if you talk like this, it's not kind, the best Langzhong in the city, the best man in the city, is far away...... They all come to your door to diagnose you, and the medicines you drink are not cheap, how can you say it...... If you don't have any money, it's natural to repay debts, and it's hard to say anything, so don't blame the old lady...... Come hard".

Xiao Wu clenched his fists to death, and said angrily: "In broad daylight, you dare!"

Sun Erniang stood up, licked the old spicy philistine's face, shook the fan, with the fat powder all over her body, shook her huge buttocks, walked to Xiao Wu step by step, squinted her eyes, slapped her with a fan, and was flexibly dodged by Xiao Wu, causing Sun Erniang to hook her lips, showing the ravines under the thick powder.

"Little girl, don't be so angry, just your three-legged cat kung fu, you can't be a hero, but no, my grandson Erniang is kind-hearted and thinks it's ...... with you I'm also a little bit eye-catching, I don't want to do things absolutely yet, let me see...... Your jade flute, see if you can ...... Enough to pay off the debt?"

Seeing that Xiao Wu turned her head and didn't pay attention to her at all, she shouted to Zhen Guang angrily, "Zhen Guang, are you a dead man?" Believe it or not, I'll let people ...... now Shoot you".

Zhen Guang was scared, after listening to Sun Erniang's words, his body was agitated, his knees were weak and he almost didn't stand firm, he hurriedly walked to Xiao Wu's side and grabbed her shoulders. There was still a wound on his shoulder that was bitten by wolf teeth, and Xiao Wu bared his teeth in pain, but Zhen Guang didn't notice it at all.

"Xiao Wu, save your father, your father is a slave, your life belongs to the master's family, you don't want to watch your father and be beaten to death, right? Xiao Wu, my father begs you, save my father's life, they really ...... You're going to kill me, Xiao Wu......"

Both father and daughter were crying, Xiao Wu lowered her eyebrows, she couldn't bear it in her heart, and began to hesitate.

Sun Erniang saw that the father and daughter were grinding, and suddenly lost patience, pointed at Zhen Guang, and instructed the family, "Hmph, I really don't cry when I don't see the coffin, this cheap slave, keeping it, can only be a waste of rice and grain, it's better to kill it, go, beat the old lady to death, save and throw it out."

"No! don't hit me, don't hit ...... I", Zhen Guang suddenly burst into tears, scared to run for his life.

"How can you say that if you hit someone, you will hit someone?"

"This, is there any royal law?"

“......”

Several family members turned a deaf ear to the angry voices of the onlookers, hula rushed to Zhen Guang, and as soon as he dragged him, he fell to the ground, and a person holding a stick was about to be beaten.

Xiao Wu frowned, stretched out his crutches, and with a crutch, he knocked the servant who was holding the stick back a few steps away.

"Stop!"

Xiao Wu shouted, straightened her back, held her chin high, clenched her teeth, and walked in front of Sun Erniang step by step, her face was full of anger, she took out the broken bamboo flute from her arms and held it up in front of her, her eyes were full of anger, and she stared at Sun Erniang.

"This is the flute that the master left me, the jade flute...... It's the master's, and it's been taken away, you see...... Can I pay my debts?"

Seeing that it was an old broken bamboo flute with a crack, Sun Erniang was stunned for a long time, thinking that Xiao Wu's words were logical, and she would not send two flutes, so she rolled her eyes and looked at the indignant Xiao Wu, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth.

"Oh? That's the case, hehe, yes, you can't even eat, how can you give a jade flute? Then, your master, will always leave you some money, right?"

The little dancer's face was full of tears, her heart was broken, she had nothing to do about such a ruined man who caused trouble, could she watch him die?

After Xiao Wu hesitated for a short time, she knew that she had no choice, she couldn't watch her father being beaten to death or dying of illness, she didn't answer Sun Erniang's question, she stared at her angrily, gritted her teeth and asked, "Say! How much?"

Sun Erniang raised her eyebrows, glanced at everyone, looked proud of the success of the conspiracy, pulled her lips and smiled, sat back in the chair, and said arrogantly: "Fifty dollars."

"Nope!"

When the little dancer heard this, her blood surged up, and after a roar, a mouthful of blood spurted out of her mouth, and Aunt Chen and several other women hurriedly helped take care of it, "You are really evil!"

"Mother!", Xiao Wu was on crutches, and quickly pounced on her mother, seeing that her mother's mouth was full of blood, tears suddenly rained down, and she was frightened by her mother's vomiting blood.

"Blackmail......! So much!"

Zhen Guang glanced at the little dancer, a trace of pain flashed, he suddenly pounced in front of Sun Erniang, and shouted loudly, he regretted buying himself as a slave, it was not a human life, he was completely treated as a mule and horse.

Sun Erniang also glanced at the little dancer, there was a bit of sympathy in her eyes, and she looked at it with disgust, and Zhen Guang, who was thin like a ghost in front of her, pointed at him and scolded

"Cheap slave, don't you eat, don't dress, don't count interest, don't want to be beaten...... Get out of the way, shit, you're not as good as a child, you're alive...... It's a burden, it's a scourge, and whoever has a little face will have already found a rope and hanged himself!

Xiao Wu kept tears and wiped the blood from the corners of her mouth for her mother, she was very scared, but she also knew that she could only rely on herself to support the situation in front of her, she had to solve this matter, remembering that the master let her brain use in trouble, and understood that Sun Erniang had asked for a lot of money, wiped her tears with her sleeves, and walked to Sun Erniang again, glaring at her angrily.

"I can give it all to you if I have less than twenty dollars, and this is the last time I think of him...... I have the grace of fertility, so I did this, and there is also a jar of rock cliff wild honey, which can be worth a little money, this is me who went up the mountain and almost lost my life...... You can also take what you get back, there is only so much, you can either take the money and leave, or take the people...... Get out of here. ”

Xiao Wu didn't shed tears, because she knew that it was useless to shed tears, her spine was straight, what she said was really not pretentious, she was poor, but she was poor and had backbone!

After hearing these words, Sun Erniang was in a trance and looked at the little girl in front of her with admiration. Zhen Guang is worthless, and he is afraid that he will be sick when he puts it around, and he feels bad luck even when he looks at it, and he has already made a lot of money by getting twenty yuan. There are more and more people gathered around, and now King Zhou pays the most attention to law and order, and she doesn't want to cause trouble.

Sun Erniang smiled meaninglessly, and said lazily, "Look at your little girl, you are also honest and sensible, twenty is twenty, you take the money, I will release the person."

Facing Sun Erniang's gaze, Xiao Wu replied coldly, "Money, tomorrow, there will be someone...... It will be delivered to you, and please be ready...... Instruments of release and deeds of sale".

"Oh hey, little girl...... It's amazing!"

Sun Erniang was shocked, she couldn't help but applaud, the fan in her hand covered her mouth, her fine eyes flashed, and she looked at Xiao Wu carefully, her eyes flowed with incredible appreciation, she couldn't believe that what she said just now came from the mouth of a girl who was more than seven years old.

It's really different!

In the past, Sun Erniang only heard that the little girl had an extraordinary memory and could read and write, but today's performance really opened her eyes, looked at Xiao Wu in front of her without flinching, and whispered: "Okay! Little girl, then let's ...... There will be a date later. Let's go, take that crap with you."

Zhen Guang was pulled by the servants, afraid that Xiao Wu would only say nothing, so he turned around and shouted urgently, "Xiao Wu, you must come, Dad, you can't ...... anymore Be a cheap slave, my father will die, Xiao Wu will save me ......".

Under the discussion and pointing of the villagers, the group walked away.

Uncle Ji, who came over later, walked up to Xiao Wu with a melancholy face, sighed and said, "Alas! Xiao Wu ......", Uncle Ji shook his head and couldn't say any more.

Xiao Wu burst into tears at this time, thinking, why is it so difficult for herself? When the master is gone, she is already very sad, this family is like this, the master does not let her go up the mountain again, but can she learn her skills with peace of mind?

"Uncle Grande, Tomorrow's ?......"

"Leave it to Uncle Auntie"

"Uncle I'll send the money and honey to ...... later."

"Alas, well!"

Xiao Wu was so aggrieved and sad, she threw herself into her uncle's arms, crying and exchanging tears, crying that the master left, crying for her father's ruthlessness, and crying for her mother to be sick again......

"Little dancer......", Aunt Chen's exclamation attracted everyone's attention.

Xiao Wu turned her head sharply, and saw her mother fall into Aunt Chen's arms, as if she was dead, she didn't react at all, the first time she encountered such a thing as death, Xiao Wu was very afraid!

"Mother, what's wrong with you? Open your eyes and see, I'm Xiao Wu...... Mother, you can't die, don't leave Xiao Wu behind, mother......"

Uncle Ji's eyebrows twisted into pimples, he stepped forward and pulled Xiao Wu up, and arranged in his mouth, "Xiao Wu, your mother is not dead, she just fainted, get out of the way, I will let your mother be carried to the bed."

The mother was in a coma until Lang Zhong was invited and pricked a few stitches with a silver needle, and the mother exhaled a long breath, "ah", and woke up quietly.

Xiao Wu has been with her mother, and she didn't dare to cry, she was afraid that her mother would be more sad, so she persuaded the grief-stricken mother with good words, saying that the master left a lot of money, and there were a lot of them, afraid that the mother would not believe it, and dug out ten coins from a corner of the house, and after coaxing her mother to sleep, Xiao Wu sat alone under the lonely lamp, silently shedding tears.

Uncle Ji took twenty coins and a large jar of wild honey, and went to Sun Erniang's Huamanlou in person to help Zhen Guang redeem his cheap status.

Zhen Guang, who was free, didn't go home with him, he sneaked away while his uncle was not paying attention.

Uncle Ji came back and said that before Zhen Guang left, he cried bitterly and repented that he was sorry for Xiao Wu and her mother in this life, he couldn't give anything to the mother and daughter, and he didn't want to drag them down anymore.

Dad left quietly.
