I traveled through time, this is unscientific
Chapter 71 Liang Duo (5)
The crying in the broken house stopped, probably because they were afraid that they would miss this opportunity forever: "I won't go back, I won't go back. There are no human beings in that house."
The little girl gnashed her teeth and said, "Master Wu is about to die, and his distant relatives came and said they wanted to take me to a faraway place and sell me."
After saying this, the little girl continued to cry.
Zhou Xiaozhou actually felt quite sympathetic towards her. Her mother died early, and she had to raise her younger brother at a very young age. She was also sold by her biological father to replace her younger brother's wife, but in the end, the younger brother's wife became her stepmother. What kind of thing is this!
"No!" As soon as the old lady relaxed a little, Yun Gu came to make her presence felt again.
"Dad said that you were bought by the Wu family to carry on the family line. Master Wu felt sorry for you because you were young, so he would not let anyone take you far away."
As soon as these words came out, the crying in the broken house got louder. Then Huang Liangduo seemed to finally be unable to hold back and shrieked, "He treats me well! I'm afraid the old man is lying to you! The old man scolds me every two days and beats me every three days. Every time he beats me half to death."
The sobbing sound continued, and along with the crying, Huang Liangduo's bloody story began.
It turned out that Mr. Wu in this county had been childless for many years, and his wife died the year before last, so he began to look for a fresh and young girl to carry on the family line.
If you want to know why he had to wait until his wife died before looking for a woman, then Master Wu would not have dared to do that when his wife was alive!
Mr. Wu was originally an apprentice at the Yang Family Grain Store in the county, but was favored by Mr. Yang, who was from the same family and thought he was diligent and motivated, so he entrusted his only daughter to him. To put it bluntly, Mr. Wu was a live-in son-in-law.
After her father-in-law passed away, Miss Yang took over the family businesses. Perhaps because she was away from home all year round, she had some difficulties in having children.
Mr. Wu and Miss Yang had been married for many years and had only one child. They took good care of him, but when he was five years old, he fell into the pond in his garden and drowned. Miss Yang cried so much that she fell seriously ill and stayed in bed for several years before she recovered. Unfortunately, she never had any more children.
The year before last, after years of suffering, Miss Yang's health was finally worn out and she died of a serious illness. Only then could Mr. Wu let go and have more children.
Unfortunately, this old man is greedy and can't digest it. Huang Liangduo is already the third concubine he has bought. These three concubines are younger than the last, and none of them have children. This is not the fault of others.
In theory, this matter is no secret in the county. Everyone knows that the Wu family is a big fire pit. Even if a family wants to sell their children, they dare not let their daughters jump into the fire pit. After all, people's words are scary.
However, Huang Laoqi just wanted the high price offered. Master Wu had already said that he would give 10,000 yuan if he gave birth to a son.
Hearing this, Zhou Xiaozhou discovered what she was interested in: money, measured in ten thousand. Zhou Xiaozhou had never seen the currency in this place before. In the past, people in the village mostly bartered, like the few pieces of bacon she received as a gift.
So the currency here is money, so is it one yuan or two yuan, or one cent or two cents? It doesn't matter, Zhou Xiaozhou thinks he will know it eventually.
Because of the 10,000 coins, Huang Laoqi hurriedly tricked his daughter into the town and sent her to the Wu family's mansion. The Wu family was really a wealthy family, and they gave 3,000 coins just for selling her body, with only one requirement, that it must be written into a death contract.
The girl had already been given to someone else, so Huang Laoqi didn't care much about the life and death indenture. But the money was too hot to handle, and it might be difficult to explain when he returned to the village.
Huang Laoqi came up with a good idea. Since his son was grown up and his family couldn't afford the betrothal gift, he could just buy a girl for Huang Saner as a child bride. This would not cost much money and would not make selling his daughter seem like a helpless act.
What a genius idea! Zhou Xiaozhou even wanted to applaud him. If this guy really wanted to do something, he could make up a reason to deceive himself even if it was extremely difficult.
Sure enough, after selling Huang Liangduo and buying a worthless Yungu, the neighbors didn't say much. The matter was covered up.
Shit! Zhou Xiaozhou wanted to curse.
Huang Liangduo also had a good two days at the Wu family. The Wu family was a grain merchant, and having enough food was the minimum requirement. They could eat all kinds of delicacies, change good clothes every day, and the maids followed them wherever they went.
Huang Liangduo felt that she had fallen into a blessed nest. Even if Mr. Wu was old enough to be her grandfather, Huang Liangduo could still hold on by gritting her teeth. She thought that when the time came, she would also bring money home like her sister, and her father would look up to her.
Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. After two or three months, she still had no signs of pregnancy, and the treatment the Wu family gave her plummeted. It was then that Huang Liangduo realized that two of the maids who followed her were young, and they were the two concubines that the Wu family had taken in before.
She usually felt sorry for the two young ladies, who were often injured, and thought that the old people in the backyard bullied the newcomers. She also gave them a lot of medicine out of pity, but she didn't expect that her good days were over and she was the one who needed the most medicine.
This Master Wu is really not a human being! He is already infertile, but he is still trying to make up for it with young girls. The two concubines before him could no longer attract his interest, but Huang Liangduo had just come and was still fresh. When there was no movement in the belly, the old man was not satisfied, so he used the whip dipped in salt water to beat her. At the worst time, Huang Liangduo was beaten to death for half a month.
Fortunately, God has eyes, Huang Liangduo was able to endure, and endured until five days ago, when the old man was fighting with someone for a business, and he couldn't breathe and collapsed. Now he is hanging on to his life with medicine, and when the medicine runs out, he will be buried.
Huang Liangduo thought that when the old man died, she would be free from suffering. But who knew that a distant relative suddenly appeared and wanted to inherit Master Wu's wealth, along with the young woman he bought.
Huang Liangduo could not forget the way that man looked at her, as if she was some kind of dirty thing, the kind that made him feel disgusted at the mere sight of her.
She ran back to the village because she was tending to Master Wu in the middle of the night and heard a few words.
The young heir thought the three concubines were pretty and planned to have them packed up and sold. As for where they would end up, Huang Liangduo didn't dare to think about it.
So she took advantage of the chaos in the Wu family and ran away. But she had nowhere to go and could only hide back in the village.
But the village was in a difficult situation now, and the wild vegetables had been picked up by people. Huang Liangduo had no other choice, so she decided to pick ground beans.
She knew that this thing was poisonous, but when people are hungry, their eyes will turn green, and they may do anything crazy, not to mention that they are just eating something poisonous.
