Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Gou'er was speechless. His mother had already guessed this result, and she still wanted to show off to him, leaving him completely unprepared!

But there was nothing he could do, he was still too young, and his mother wouldn't let him drive a carriage, let alone learn how to drive a carriage, so she had no choice but to take care of the baby.

Fortunately, my sister was still young and easy to fool. He took out a rattle and coaxed her to behave for a while. After that, she drank a bottle of milk and went to bed obediently.

Although I woke up several times due to bumps, I saw that my brother was always with me, so I didn't cry and fell asleep again after a while.

But even so, the dog was very tired.

Because he didn't know when his sister would wake up, he had to stay awake at all times, otherwise his sister would cry again when she woke up and saw that he wasn't watching over him.

Jiang Jiuniang sat in the passenger seat for an hour. Lu Baichuan was already very proficient. She came back to the small bed at the back and watched over her children. She stroked the dog's head and said, "Go to sleep. Mother will watch over my sister."

The dog was already so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes. He nodded and fell asleep.

Jiang Jiuniang didn't let Lu Baichuan drive all night. Lu Baichuan drove the car in the first half of the night, and Jiang Jiuniang went to drive in the second half of the night. The main reason was that she wanted to take advantage of the night to travel more and avoid the hassle of riding in a carriage during the day.

No matter how bumpy the RV is, the equipment is much better than that of a carriage, and it has a shock-absorbing effect. The bumps are not as uncomfortable as riding in a carriage. Naturally, I would rather drive at night and rest during the day.

Lu Baichuan originally wanted to spend the night, but was scared away by his wife's look.

Let the wife say whatever she wants. He is a wounded man and needs to be "pampered".

Walking like this day and night for two days, we arrived at the city next door.

However, they didn't plan to stay here long, they just wanted to have a good meal and continue their journey in the evening.

On the way into the city, I met a couple. From a distance, I could hear the woman crying.

"I just got my salary, and there is no food at home. I need to buy some. The weather is getting colder, and I also need to make some thick clothes for the children. I really can't give you this money! You have pity on the children! The head of the house, I I beg you!"

The woman's pitiful cry is uncomfortable. How desperate must one be to make such a cry?
Jiang Jiuniang opened the car curtain and took a look, just in time to see the man throw the woman away, raise his hand and slap her in the face, angrily chased after her, and kicked the woman twice.

Lu Baichuan couldn't see it, so he speeded up and passed by, and threw the riding crop on the man without mercy.

The man was hitting his wife when he suddenly felt a pain in his back and the force was so strong that he was thrown away.

Jiang Jiuniang jumped out of the car, helped the woman up from the ground, looked at her crying face, and said helplessly: "When you meet a man like this, you have to know that it is useless to beg him."

The woman wiped her tears and felt very helpless. As soon as she opened her mouth, tears fell again: "I really have no choice. I really can't open the pot at home..."

The man grinned in pain, finally got up, and cursed: "Who are you, and why do you care about me..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Baichuan kicked him again, then pushed the person to the ground and took out a money bag from his arms. He felt that there were probably a few pieces of silver in it. He handed it to Jiang Jiuniang, who took it. When he was about to give the money bag to the woman, he found that the embroidery on the money bag was very good. He couldn't help but said: "This pattern is really beautiful. Did you embroider it yourself?"

As she spoke, she gave the woman the purse.

The woman opened the purse and looked at it to make sure that the money was still inside and had not been secretly hidden by her husband. Then she nodded and said, "Yes, I came from a good family when I was young. I studied embroidery and spinning for a few years. Now I often embroider some." Take the purse and handkerchief and sell them at the embroidery shop to make some loose money."

She said it was just loose money, but because her husband was lazy, the whole family relied on her little money to survive, and these few pieces of silver were all the family's possessions. "Thank you two nobles for your help. I, I don't have anything good here. I just brought a few handkerchiefs with me. If Madam doesn't mind, please pick a few and take them away."

She took out all the handkerchiefs from her arms. The materials used were not the best, but they were not bad either, but the patterns on them were very delicate and beautiful, different from those seen elsewhere.

"Did you trace this pattern yourself?"

Jiang Jiuniang looked at each piece and liked them all very much. She thought it would be best to use it as a mouth towel for her daughter.

"Yes."

The woman nodded timidly, not daring to look at Jiang Jiuniang.

Jiang Jiuniang stretched out her hand towards Lu Baichuan. Lu Baichuan understood and took out a five-tael silver coin and handed it to her. Jiang Jiuniang gave the silver to the woman and said, "I like it very much. I bought it all from you."

When the man next to him saw the silver, his eyes lit up. He wanted to grab it but was afraid of Lu Baichuan, so he could only watch anxiously from the side.

But the woman was startled and waved her hands repeatedly: "There is no need for so many. Madam, if you like it, I will give them all to you. Thank you for helping me."

As she said this, she glanced carefully at her husband next to her, fearing that Jiang Jiuniang and the others would leave soon and her husband would come and grab the money again.

Jiang Jiuniang naturally thought of this, forcefully handed the money to the woman, and said with a smile: "We are about to enter the city, so you can come with us."

The woman looked at the fierce-looking man not far away, then at the smiling Jiang Jiuniang, nodded vigorously, and followed her into the carriage.

After getting in the car, I found that there was a little boy and a baby in the car. I couldn't help but praise: "Madam, your child looks so good-looking!"

She had no education and couldn't find any beautiful words to praise others, so she tried her best to say these words.

But Jiang Jiuniang could feel her kindness and smiled and said thank you.

Gou'er was very discerning and went out to sit with Lu Baichuan, leaving only the woman and Jiang Jiuniang and her daughter in the car. There was no one else around, and the woman was obviously relieved.

Jiang Jiuniang chatted with her for a few words and briefly learned about the situation at the woman's home.

The wife's name was Danniang. She used to be a young lady from a wealthy family. Later, her family fell into decline and she had no brothers. In order to prevent others from being deprived of her family, she recruited a son-in-law to come to her house, hoping to keep the little remaining family property.

Unexpectedly, the husband he hired was not only a lazy man, but also a gambler. Within two years, the family fortune was ruined. Even the big house they used to live in was mortgaged by the beast. Now the whole family is crowded together outside the city. She struggled to survive in a thatched hut, selling some handkerchiefs from her purse.

In addition to the three children in the family, there is also Danniang's mother, who was so heartbroken when the family was in decline in her early years that she even cried her eyes out. Now that she has encountered such a gambler, one can only imagine how difficult that family's life must be. sad.

"It's been like this, haven't you ever thought about leaving?"

Jiang Jiuniang couldn't bear it anymore, so she asked.

The woman was stunned and looked at Jiang Jiuniang in surprise. This was the first time she heard someone persuade her like this. (End of chapter)
