Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

The person who woke up again was Xu Han.

As soon as Xu Han came through, she was beaten by Old Lady Xu. She saw a lot of people gathered outside the yard, and the low wall of the farmhouse could not stop the crowd of onlookers.

In a daze, I saw a tall man, this man was Lu Chuan.

At the same time, Lu Chuan also saw Xu Han. The two looked at each other, and suddenly Lu Chuan's heart tightened, as if he was about to lose something.

People also subconsciously rushed into the yard, grabbed Old Lady Xu's stick and said, "Stop hitting her!"

Old Mrs. Xu was also startled. The man was very big and had a fierce look on his face. She couldn't help but shiver!

"This is my granddaughter and I can beat her if I want. Is it any of your business?" Old Mrs. Xu said fearfully.

Lu Chuan snatched the stick from Old Lady Xu's hand and threw it to the ground, then turned around and helped Xu Han who was lying on the ground.

At this time, Mrs. Xu finally reacted and said, "Who are you?

How dare you break into my house and insult my granddaughter's innocence. How can I get a good price if this gets out?"

That's right! Mrs. Xu was just thinking that after this money-losing thing came of age, she would find a widower or an old bachelor to sell it to, and then she could get some money for free.

That's why he has never been sold to human traffickers. After all, the price offered by human traffickers is too low, and it is more cost-effective to sell it to a widower or an old bachelor.

This was Xu Han’s grandmother’s true thought, and no one else in the Xu family tried to stop her.

Even though Old Madam Xu had beaten someone so badly just now, no one from the Xu family came out to stop it, which shows how unwelcome the original owner was.

Hearing what Old Lady Xu said, Lu Chuan asked: "How much do you want? I'll take her away!"

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she opened her mouth loudly: "You need ten taels of silver, not a penny less."

When the people around heard this, they couldn't help but gasp. Ten taels of silver was enough for an entire family to live on for ten years, and even if they were frugal, they could still spend less than ten taels of silver.

After all, the betrothal gift from an ordinary family is only one or two taels of silver, or only a few hundred coins.

In this era, although the weather has been good in recent years, an authentic farmer, relying solely on the output of his family's land and odd jobs in town, can hardly save even a tael of silver in a year after deducting the family's food and clothing.

This old lady Xu is so bold to ask for it!

There was a kind-hearted person who couldn't help but say: "Mrs. Xu, you are too bold to ask for such a high price!

Look at your granddaughter's small body, she can be blown away by the wind. If someone has ten taels of silver, he will buy your granddaughter! You can't pick a good girl casually, you can get whatever you want."

Others also echoed: "That's right! Look at how badly you beat your girl. She's exhausted. I don't know how much money it will cost to marry her home and buy medicine for her."

At this time, someone with sharp eyes saw that the village doctor was also here, and hurriedly said: "Doctor Liu, please help take a look at this girl, her injuries are not light."

Doctor Liu also saw Xu Han lying motionless on the ground, and hurried forward to feel her pulse. Lu Chuan looked at Doctor Liu nervously and asked, "How is it?"

Doctor Liu said with difficulty after taking her pulse, "My medical skills are not good enough. This girl has a high fever and was beaten. In addition, her health is bad and she hasn't had enough food. I'm afraid it will be difficult to save her!"

Doctor Liu's voice was loud enough for everyone around to hear.

Everyone said that Old Lady Xu was too black-hearted. Although the villagers usually thought that Xu Han was unlucky, they also stayed away from her.

After all, Xu Han's parents are both deceased, and the villagers are more or less superstitious.

But after all, they don't have bad intentions. I have never seen any family torturing their granddaughter like this. Although there are some people who favor boys over girls, there is no such thing as starving them of food!

Old Mrs. Xu is so cruel.
