The group pet is three and a half years old, and the koi milk bag is cute and sweet

Chapter 23 Zhao Di Was Sold
Today is the New Year's Fair, and there are so many ox carts and horse-drawn carts on the road, even the old Liu Tou, who drives the ox carts in Taohua Village, has been going to the county to pull people in the county since dawn, running back and forth once or twice.

After arriving in the town, the coachman parked the carriage at the gate of the city and waited, and Ah Li and his family walked to the market.

Today's county town is very lively, selling flowers, jewelry, and food.

The peddler selling candied haws shook the snakeskin drum and yelled "Dong Dong".

"Sweet --- candied haws!"

Ah Li was instantly attracted to the candied haws, and something crystal flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Feeling her slowing down, Mrs. Pei followed the direction she was looking, knowing that she wanted to eat candied haws, so she couldn't help but smile.

"Carp wants to eat candied haws!"

Ah Li licked the saliva from the corner of his mouth, wrinkled his little nose happily and nodded.

Who can resist such a cute baby!
Mrs. Pei took everyone to the candied haws stand.

"How much is a bunch of candied haws?"

"Auntie, for a string of two pennies, our candied haws are delicious, and they are also sprinkled with sesame seeds to make them fragrant."

"Okay, then give me five skewers."

She also treats her five children equally.

At this time, Ah Li pulled Pei's little hand and raised his head and said, "Mother, can you buy another bunch, I want to give brother Ling a bunch."

"Of course." Mrs. Pei turned her head and said to the vendor, "Young man, bring me another bunch."

"okay!"

Ah Li happily held the candied haws, making Mrs. Pei bow her head, tricked her into opening her mouth, and then stuffed a candied haws into her mouth.

Then repeat this method and feed one to Lin Changlu.

Seeing this, Lin Dalang and Lin Erlang also took out his own candied haws and stuffed one for each of Lin Darong and his wife.

The family happily shared the delicious food.

There are a lot of things to buy, so Mrs. Pei asked Dalang Erlang to lead Ah Li, and she and Mrs. Lin Changlu and Mrs. Zhang went shopping.

Meat, firecrackers, melon and fruit sugar tea, candles and snacks, last year they could only grit their teeth and buy less of these things. This year, because of the appearance of A Li, they have enough money to live a good year.

Ah Li likes to eat, so Lin Changlu and his wife will buy more of what she likes to eat.

When the market is almost full, they have to buy some grain to go back. This year, because of the flood, there is no harvest, and the grain at home has bottomed out.

Lin Darong and his wife sent the things they bought in the market to the carriage, and Lin Changlu and his wife took Ah Li and the others to buy grain.

When they arrived at the food store, there were too many people inside, so Mrs. Pei asked Da Lang Erlang to wait for them at the door with Ah Li.

At the entrance of the grain store, there are couplets and blessings written for survival, and Dalang Erlang leaned over to read them with great interest.

Ah Li ate the last two candied haws in his hand and looked at the passers-by.

At this time, she saw Huang's big belly not far away, holding Li Zhaodi's hand and talking to a thin woman.

She looked at the candied haws in her hand, took the last one off the bamboo stick and held it in the palm of her hand.

After a while, Mrs. Huang took a piece of silver from the skinny woman, pushed Li Zhaodi into the arms of the skinny woman, looked at the silver in her hand and walked away with a smile.

Li Zhaodi looked at the back of her mother leaving, silent tears flowed into a line, dripping on the yellowed clothes.

She didn't cry loudly, because she knew that crying would not change her mother's decision at all.

The skinny woman dragged Li Zhaodi to walk in the opposite direction.

Seeing her crying, Ah Li let go of Da Lang's hand, and quickly followed in the direction Li Zhaodi was walking.

Seeing that they reached the gate of a courtyard, a middle-aged man opened the door.

Suddenly, Li Zhaodi bit the skinny woman's hand, and ran towards Ah Li.

When she saw Ah Li, she was stunned for a second, grabbed Ah Li's hand and shouted, "Li Li, run quickly."

Ah Li didn't know what happened and ran along in a daze.

They had short calves, and they were quickly caught up by thin women and middle-aged men.

In desperation, Li Zhaodi turned a corner in the alley, hid Ah Li in a pile of hay next to her, and told her not to come out or make a sound.

As soon as she finished speaking, she was caught by the middle-aged man who caught up.

"Snapped"

The skinny woman walked up to Li Zhaodi and slapped her hard.

"Smelly girl, run away! See where you can go. Your mother sold you to me and you are mine. If you want to survive, you have to be obedient to me."

She looked around again and asked, "Where did the little girl you dragged just now go?"

"I don't know her. I wanted to ask her for help, so I grabbed her and ran away. Just now she ran out of the alley and said she was looking for her mother."

Li Zhaodi's cheeks were swollen, and the corners of his mouth were still bleeding.

"It's a pity, but that girl looks really good."

After the thin woman finished speaking, she and the middle-aged man took Li Zhaodi away.

Ah Li heard that there was no sound outside, and crawled out of the grass.

At this time, the Lin family was in a hurry, and Lin Changlu and his wife came out after buying food, only to see Dalang Erlang watching others write couplets.

Not seeing A Li's figure, Mrs. Pei was so anxious that her heart ached. She held back her discomfort and told Da Lang to wait here, fearing that A Li would not find anyone if she came back.

The adults searched everywhere.

When Ah Li came out of the alley, he hurriedly bumped into a woman dressed as a maid.

She looked up at the woman in front of her, and said, "I'm sorry sister, I didn't mean to." She was about to leave.

As soon as the woman saw Ah Li, she recognized her and grabbed her.

"It's you, little girl! It's easy for us to find, but I didn't expect to meet you here."

"Sister, do you know me?" Ah Li asked suspiciously, tilting her head.

"You may not remember me. Back then you picked up something in the bookstore in front and returned it to my wife, and said that my wife was pregnant with a boy."

When Ah Li thought about it, it seemed that there was such a thing.

"You little girl is really accurate. My wife gave birth to a young master half a month ago. My wife asked us to inquire everywhere. I want to thank you very much!"

Ah Li wanted to save Lin Zhaodi, so he said to the woman, "Then sister, can you do me a favor?"

"Little girl, just tell me if you need any help."

"My elder sister from the same village was taken away by what my mother said. Can you save her?"

Hearing this, the maid hurriedly said: "I'm just a little maid and may not be able to help you, why don't you go with me to the mansion to find your wife, she can help you."

Ah Li immediately became vigilant when he heard this, "Then forget about my sister, I'd better ask my mother for help!"

She doesn't want to be taken away by bad guys like sister Zhaodi.

The maid couldn't help but lament that Ah Li is so smart at such a young age, and knows how to guard against others.

Kneeling down and smiling, he said, "little girl, don't worry, I'm not a bad person. Why don't I go with you to find your mother first, and then go to your wife? If you're such a small doll, you won't be able to see it if you are caught by someone's teeth." It's your mother's turn."
