Chapter 41 Conspiracy to do something

"It's okay, it's okay, that damn old lady is gone!"

Seeing the old woman left, everyone relaxed. They are the lifelines, and they must not sell their children.

"Mom, I'm scared."

Xiao Wu was timid at first, so frightened, he hid in Lin's arms sobbing, making Lin feel as distressed as anything.

Xiao Liu also hurriedly hugged her fourth child, "Brother Hua, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, mother is here."

Brother Hua was held in his arms, silent.

Little Brother Hu put on a fierce face, and patted his strong chest, "Don't be afraid, brothers, I will protect you!"

Everyone was busy comforting the children, and even the dinner was made richer than before.

Shen Nuanning squinted her eyes as she watched the woman leave. She was doing business in places where refugees must pass through, specializing in selling children. Buying live children at a very low price was really a lucrative business.

The tragic fate of those children in the future can be seen.

How sad.

What really stings people's hearts is not the deal of one child in a bag of food, but the envy in the eyes of those who have no children looking at the person who traded with the mother-in-law, as if the mother-in-law is not a human tooth who abducted other people's children, but He is a savior sent from heaven.

Their Shen family would not fall to the point of selling their children, and they took great care of their children, but this kind of transaction was something that others could only dream of.

After dinner, everyone went to bed one after another, while Brother Hua was still sitting by the fire with a book in his hand.

Shen Nuanning looked at him, and even wanted to go over to have a look.

"Sister."

Xiaosan, who was sitting next to her, suddenly called out to her with puffy face and pursed mouth.

"I am not happy."

"Ah, are you unhappy?" She was confused.

Xiaosan became even more unhappy, frowning and not speaking.

He has always been in love with everything, Shen Nuanning was too lazy to coax him, knew what he wanted, and took out a candy from the small cloth bag.

Xiaosan's angry eyes lit up, she snatched the candy from her hand, and hummed, "Even if there is candy, I'm not happy."

"Why are you unhappy?"

As soon as this matter was mentioned, he became angry, "That old godly woman has no eyesight! Obviously I was the best-looking kid, but she just passed me and chose Brother Hua!"

"puff!"

Shen Nuanning couldn't hold back and laughed.

"Sister-in-law, you are still laughing! Brother Hua is just a nerd, meaningless at all, and he is not as good-looking as I am, so why should he be chosen instead of me!" Xiaosan was furious, he felt that he had been insulted.

She laughed even harder.

Well, nerds indeed.

Shen Nuanning took a look at Brother Hua's book. The book was very old, with traces of time, and was read repeatedly, but it was well preserved.

"Little Si, do you know all the characters here?"

Before the famine, all the nephews in the family had gone to school, but they dropped out after the famine, and only Brother Hua still carried books in his small bag.

He shook his head, "I know some, but some sirs haven't taught me yet."

The family members are also illiterate, and even though the elder brother and the second elder brother have two years more blood than him, they can't count on it.

"Do you like reading very much?"

Brother Hua nodded, then shook his head, "I... want to be a county magistrate, and studying can make me a county magistrate."

Shen Nuanning was taken aback, "Why?"

Learn literary and martial arts, goods and the emperor's family. Although the ancient scholars studied hard for the purpose of becoming an official, Brother Hua's goal was set too early and too clearly.

Hua Geer said solemnly, "Instead of entrusting your own destiny to others, it is better to control it yourself. I know that there is no need to flee famine in the first place. It is because the parents and officials are incompetent. For their own self-interest, they disregarded the people and caused so many people to die tragically. will do better than them."

In the past, Shen Nuanning only thought that he was well-behaved and sensible, never troubled his parents, but she never thought that he had such great ambitions, she was slightly shocked in her heart,
Xiaosan looked like you were all deceived, "Master lied to you! You idiot! There are so many people studying, why haven't there been so many county magistrates? He just wants to lie to us, Shu Xiu!"

Shen Nuanning said seriously, "Don't listen to Xiaosan, Brother Hua, you can definitely do it."

Only when he was in a famine could he be more aware of the dire straits of the people in Liming. If he used to talk about being an official because of his parents, now, in his little heart, the seeds of being an upright official have been planted.

She will also help him as much as possible.

"Your fourth brother at least has a goal, what about you? What do you want to do in the future?" Shen Nuanning asked.

Xiaosan's eyes lit up, "Sister-in-law, I had a dream last night. I dreamed that I was sleeping in a room full of silver. No matter how I count the silver, I can't count it all. It would be great if I could count money every day in the future."

This ambition...

Xiao Si said, "The accountant counts money, but he counts other people's money."

Shen Nuanning nodded, "You want to count other people's money?"

"No! I want to count my money! I want to make money!"

Xiaosan's bold ambition was just like this, "I want to be the richest person in Lizhou!"

"The structure is small! How about being the richest person in Dajing!" Shen Nuanning smiled.

His eyes lit up, and he shouted even louder, "I want to be the richest person in Dajing!"

Shen Nuanning sent them to bed, "Primary Four wants to learn, and Miracle Doctor Tu should be able to read, and let him teach you tomorrow."

Brother Hua suddenly became happy, "Really? Thank you, sister-in-law."

Xiao San ruthlessly dragged him away, and blinked at Shen Nuanning halfway, with a tacit understanding of "I understand you".

Shen Nuanning touched the back of her head in puzzlement.

Does this little guy know what she is going to do?

That's right, she's going to sit on the sidelines.

She greeted Shen Shi and Shen Wenhu in advance.

Although Liu Shi and old Shentou are still worried about her, they recognize her ability and don't stop her anymore. Brother Hu, as the boss of the younger generation, is about the same age as Shen Nuanning, so he has to practice hard.

"Sister-in-law! I'm here!" Xiaosan's nightmarish voice suddenly came from far and near.

Shen Nuanning turned her head and saw his figure rushing over.

His eyes were bright, "Take me with you!"

"Go for what?"

"I want to avenge the fourth and fifth brothers! Beat up that old woman!" Xiaosan said righteously.

"You little brat, someone could crush you to death with a single finger, so use your ass!"

After she finished speaking, she suddenly realized, "How do you know what we are going to do?"

"Sister-in-law, I can be the person in the whole family who knows you best!"

Shen Nuanning stared at him quietly.

Xiaosan pinched her fingers and said honestly, "I saw you conspiring with elder brother and fourth uncle to do something."

Shen Nuanning: "..."

Taking advantage of the darkness, the three of them hid in the woods behind the Shen family's camp, and then climbed up the tree.

If the woman really came to steal the child tonight, this is the best view.

The child hid alone under a thick tree, waiting for his sister-in-law's instructions.

"Little sister, will they really come?" Brother Hu turned to look at her.

She said with a stiff face, "I don't know, just wait."

silent.

"Turn your head and don't look at me."

"Oh."

Brother Hu touched the mask on his face, turned his head, and continued to stare at the movement.

There are so many treasures on my little aunt, she even has such a scary faceless mask, when those bad guys come, she will definitely scare the shit out of them and make them paralyzed.
