The peasant girl who escaped the famine: pick up the leak and pick up a prince

Chapter 58
It was getting late, and Yu Maimai was about to go home with his daughter-in-law and grandson. As soon as he turned a corner, he saw a group of people besieging a man. The man was lying on the ground, his face had been beaten to death.

Yu Mai stepped forward and asked the shopkeeper what was going on, and the shopkeeper said aggressively: "Look, this bastard is stealing my buns one after another. If I don't beat him, he will come again tomorrow." .”

It turns out that the shopkeeper is also a bun seller, but this is a shop, and there are many people coming in and out. This is the kind of person Yu Maimai dislikes the most. He beat him like this for the sake of two buns. It's really hateful to not let go.

"How much is a bun? If he eats a few buns from you, I will pay you back!"

The shopkeeper, chubby, wiped his face with his hand: "Oh, I also met a rich and powerful man today, who wants to be a good person, right? Well, a steamed stuffed bun is originally a penny, and now you want to be a good person If you don’t, it’s five cents a piece.”

Yu Maimai clenched his fists angrily, walked towards the shopkeeper, and threw two pieces of silver on the shopkeeper's face.

The shopkeeper bared his teeth, probably hurt from the beating, he raised his fist and rushed towards Yu Maimai, Zhang saw this, stepped forward to block: "You, what are you doing, you want to do something to my mother-in-law, I smashed it!" Your shop!"

Yu Maimai pushed Mrs. Zhang away, and hit the shopkeeper in the eyes with one punch. The shopkeeper covered his eyes and screamed: "You stinky woman, dare to hit me, come here, give me a hard beating!" This woman."

Several men around rushed forward and surrounded Yu Maimai.

Yu Maimai kicked it out, and the two men fell to the ground, clutching their waists and said, "Oh, I don't see it, this woman has a few tricks, hit me!"

Yu Maimai didn't want to waste time, she didn't know what happened to the one who stole the buns just now, so she clenched her fists tightly and aimed at their eyes, only when they couldn't see, could she really stop.

Several men lay on the ground and began to yell. Ning glanced at the man who was sitting there and stole the buns, and said disdainfully: "My mother-in-law really shouldn't hurt people for someone like you, boss! A man, even a meat bun, wouldn't he work as a coolie to make money?"

The man kept stuffing buns into his mouth, but he ignored Ning's words, and Yu Maimai rushed over.

Ning said very dissatisfied: "Mother, why did you save such a worthless person? Look, why doesn't a man of his age know how to do coolies to make money?"

Yu Mai stepped forward and asked, "You are young and strong, why do you want to steal other people's buns?"

"My mother is sick, but I don't have money to see a doctor for her. I haven't eaten for several days. I just want to steal a bun and take it back to my mother. What's wrong?"

Yu Maimai found that this young man was very filial, so he asked, "Where is your family from, and what is your last name?"

The man wiped his face and said with a mournful face, "My home is in Liezigou. My surname is Yu."

Some fragments of the original owner appeared in Yu Maimai's mind, about the original owner's natal family. This man is his cheap nephew Yu Longlong.

"Are you Longlong?"

The man turned around in surprise: "You are, are you my aunt?"

Yu Maimai nodded. Although she has never had any contact with this cheap nephew, there is the most profound part in the memory of the original owner, and it is also the past that the original owner has been lingering. She remembered that after the death of her parents, it was her The sister-in-law was afraid that she would eat too much, so she sold her to the Zhang family.

"Yes, I am your aunt, the aunt who was sold by your mother!"

Yu Longlong immediately knelt down on the ground and kowtowed continuously: "Auntie, back then, we also had three brothers, and the life of a family of five was also very difficult. In addition, my father was ill, so my mother had no choice but to give you up. It was sold. At the beginning, the money given by the Zhang family was used by my mother to treat my father, but even so, my father still left. Auntie, please, come back with me, my mother has always wanted to see you What about one side?"

Yu Maimai's face was gloomy, and the two daughters-in-law looked at the helpless mother-in-law, chattering: "Look, I said why mother never mentioned these things, so there is something hidden in it?"

Mrs. Zhang said angrily: "No matter what, I can't do such a thing. No wonder Mother didn't want to mention the matter of uncle's family for so many years?"

"Girl, don't be angry. My mother was at fault in the past, but my mother is also innocent. Now my mother's condition is serious. She just wants to see you when she is dying. Please promise me."

Yu Longlong knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing, Yu Maimai was not a cruel person, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay, get up, I'll go with you."

Yu Maimai glanced at Ning's family and said: "The second one, you take the two children back home, I will go to Laizigou with your sister-in-law, and I will be back soon."

I don't know why, this time, Yu Maimai actually called the eldest daughter-in-law, even Mrs. Zhang was very surprised.

"Mom, do you want me to go with you?"

Yu Longlong said happily: "Auntie, is it true? It's agreed, I'll find a bullock cart right away, and we'll go back."

Yu Maimai nodded: "Okay, you go ahead, we will wait here."

"Go, come with me, buy something to eat, buy something, after all these years have passed, some things should be let go."

Mrs. Zhang had a big mouth, she pulled Yu Maimai's sleeve and said, "Mother, what will Yu Longlong do if his mother dies?"

"Crow mouth, stop talking nonsense!"

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were walking in the market. When they saw eggs, they bought a basket, caught an old hen, and then bought some steamed buns, rice noodles, and a piece of meat, and staggered to the intersection.

Yu Longlong came over and said hello: "Auntie, I found the ox cart. How did you buy so many things? It's so troublesome."

"If I don't buy it, will your mother have something to eat? You've been stealing other people's buns outside, how dare you say this?"

Yu Longlong stopped talking, and lowered his head to load these things into the bullock cart. Mrs. Zhang said to the master driving the cart: "Old man, go to Laizigou."

"okay!"

Yu Maimai sat in the car, trembling on the bumpy road.

"If I really go there, I wonder if I can cure her illness?" Yu Maimai thought for a while, she has a herb library, like the last time she treated Grandma Liu's illness, can she be cured quickly?

She didn't know whether it was due to compassion or it was Yu's family after all. She still hoped that the woman who sold the original owner was still alive. If she died, what would Yu Longlong do?
