The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times

As for where the woodshed was, he didn't know.

Wang Gui took a few deep breaths and forced himself to calm down.

He had to figure out the whole story before he could figure out a way to save himself.

My thoughts drift back to this morning.

Today is Dazhuang's day off from school.

He packed up his carriage early in the morning and set off from Baoshan Town to Yining County.

After arriving in Yining County, I picked up Dazhuang smoothly.

He lied that he helped an old man on his way back last time and received calligraphy and paintings from the old man.

After selling the calligraphy and paintings, he received nine hundred and fifty taels of silver.

Da Zhuang was overjoyed when he heard the news.

After the excitement wore off, my first reaction was to pay my elder sister back first.

Wang Gui was satisfied with Dazhuang's reaction.

Regardless of other things, this child at least has good character.

When large families educate their children, the most important thing they value is character.

Wang Gui smiled and told Da Zhuang that he had returned the money to Daya.

Only then was Da Zhuang successfully brought to the shop to buy things.

To be honest, in his opinion, Dazhuang is missing too many things when he goes to school now.

This is not just about the material level, but more about the vision and spiritual level.

In his experience, if you want to read books well.

In addition to the books taught in school, you also have to read a lot of other books to expand your knowledge.

Often, the reason why it is difficult for poor families to produce noble children is also in this aspect.

Whether it is the previous dynasty or the current dynasty, the collections of books controlled by the aristocratic families are far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

However, books are not so difficult to deal with.

He has a lot of knowledge in his mind, and when Dazhuang reaches that stage, he will naturally teach him.

The only difference is that times have changed and he needs to go to the bookstore to find out what books are popular on the market.

Wang Gui followed his previous plan and took Da Zhuang to the bookstore first.

After learning about the books that today's literati value, I picked out some unfamiliar books and bought a few.

Then he picked out several things he would need for school and asked his assistant to pack them up.

Da Zhuang was stunned watching from the side and tried to stop him several times but failed.

Unfortunately, the bookstore clerk was right next to him, so he couldn't say many things directly.

After finally leaving the bookstore, Dazhuang told the current 'Boss Lu' about his original Boss Lu's principles of frugality.

Wang Gui looked at this little adult-like child and just smiled as he pulled him into the car.

After leaving the bookstore, the two went to a clothing store.

Not only did Dazhuang need to buy a few more sets of clothes for school, he was also not used to wearing Boss Lu's linen clothes.

Wang Gui looked around the clothing store and directly skipped the silk and satin clothes that he most often wore in his previous life, and instead bought a cotton coat.

After being in this era for so long, he saw that Daya and others mostly wore cotton cloth.

Although it doesn't look very good in appearance, it is still more comfortable than hemp clothes.

Therefore, Wang Gui picked out a few more sets of cotton clothes and shoes for himself and Dazhuang.

This time, when the two of them went out, he vaguely felt that something was wrong.

But I looked back twice and didn't find anything unusual.

He thought he was overthinking it, so he drove with Dazhuang to a restaurant he had seen before.

In Boss Lu's memory, Dazhuang has never eaten anything delicious since he was a child.

Wang Gui felt sad when he thought about the child's appearance during the period of fleeing famine.

He had been to restaurants countless times in his previous life and was very familiar with the restaurant's procedures.

After arriving at the small restaurant, he handed the carriage to the waiter at the door.

Then, he took Da Zhuang directly to a secluded corner of the hall.

After listening to the waiter announce the names of the dishes, Wang Gui picked out the ones that children could eat and ordered a few.

During this time, Dazhuang's little hands were under the table, pulling at his clothes.

Coupled with that anxious little expression, you can tell without even looking that she doesn't want him to have more.

Seeing Dazhuang's anxious look, Wang Gui controlled himself and only ordered four dishes.

However, he didn't know that the four dishes that seemed very simple to him were too luxurious in Dazhuang's eyes.

But the dishes had already been ordered, and Dazhuang could only accept it with a painful heart.

The two of them finished the meal, and as expected, there were leftovers on the table.

This time, Dazhuang spoke before Wang Gui and packed up the remaining food to take away.

As a result, when the two were walking towards the city gate and passing through a secluded alley, several little beggars rushed out and stopped their carriage.

Wang Gui thought they were children begging on the road, so he thought about packing up the leftover food from lunch and giving some to them.

Who would have thought that as soon as he got off the carriage, several ragged adult men rushed out of the alley.

Before he could resist, he was hit on the head with a stick.

Before he fainted, he only heard Dazhuang calling "Dad" in fear.

When I woke up again, I was tied up in this woodshed.

He carefully recalled the appearance of those men and vaguely felt that their faces seemed familiar.

Before he could recall any more, Dazhuang slowly woke up.

I wonder if those people forgot that Dazhuang’s mouth was not blocked by the cloth.

Before Dazhuang spoke, Wang Gui nodded to indicate that there might be someone outside.

Da Zhuang immediately understood what he meant. He moved his bound hands and feet, approached Wang Gui, and whispered in his ear:

"Dad, I saw the people who kidnapped us. They are the beggars who beat you so badly last time!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Gui searched Boss Lu’s memory and found that passage.

After careful recollection, I confirmed that it was those people.

However, there are more people this time than last time.

At this moment, Da Zhuang was a little annoyed.

"Dad, it's all my fault!

Before, if I hadn’t snatched food from those little beggars.

You wouldn't have been hit on the head, and we wouldn't have been caught here this time."

Dazhuang looked at the blood on his father's head and said in a crying voice:

"Dad, are we going to die here?"

Wang Gui looked at Dazhuang and shook his head firmly.

He tried to turn around and put his tied hands close to Dazhuang's mouth, indicating that Dazhuang should untie the rope with his mouth.

But I don't know how the knot was tied, and it's very difficult to untie.

The two tried for a long time but couldn't solve it.

Seeing that Dazhuang had no strength left, Wang Gui had no choice but to give up.

At this moment, voices were heard outside, followed by the sound of unlocking.

Wang Gui quickly lay down and motioned Dazhuang to do the same.

Just as the two of them got into position, they heard the door creak open.

Two men came in and spat at them when they saw that the two men were still unconscious.

"What's going on with these two guys? Why haven't they woken up yet?

"Third brother, you guys won't use too much force and kill him, will you?"

The young man called the third brother stepped forward to take a look. Seeing that the two men's faces were covered in blood, his heart trembled.

He stepped forward and sniffed the two people's breath. After sensing the presence of breath, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said to Brother Cai with a flattering smile:

"Brother Cai, don't worry, we all knew when we attacked, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with him."
