The fourth girl of the farmer

Chapter 89 The Dumb Servant (1)
"My house is at the end of this street. Let's go in and have a drink of water!" Huang Shunzi followed this group of people and walked around several stores. They only saw them asking the price, but they didn't buy anything. He didn't know what their plan was. After a while, people are almost at the door, so of course they have to say hello.

A low hut, dark and crowded, in the room, there are three children of different heights.

"Father, are you back?" As soon as Huang Shunzi entered the room, all three children ran towards him, shouting as they ran.

"Father, you're back? Where's the plum? Where's my plum?" A worried female voice came from the back room, but no one came out.

"Mother, I'm here, and I'm back too!" Meizi heard her mother yelling, and hurried in, and said as she walked, "Mother, father brought me back, and he also brought a cousin, an uncle Yang, and an uncle. Big brother, oh, no, it’s two big brothers and one sister back!”

It's good if you come back, and if you come back, it means you haven't sold it.

Who brought who?
What are so many people here for?

Are you here to take Meizi away?

After all, I still sold the plums!

The woman's heart was full of pain.

"His father, who's here?" the woman shouted towards the outer room.

"It's the old cousin. Old cousin Wang San from Li's village is here, as well as Brother Yang from their village." Huang Shunzi replied quickly.

It's a relative, and if it's a relative, it's not like taking plums away.

"My cousin is here, please sit down." The woman greeted quickly, but she still didn't show up.

"Old Cousin, don't be surprised, Wu Niang is blind, and she caught a cold a while ago, and now she can't get out of bed!" Huang Shunzi explained to Wang San the reason why his wife didn't go out to greet guests, while, He found a bowl again, ready to pour water for the group.

"Ah? How come?" Wang San was surprised when he heard this: "When did you move here?"

"Well, two years ago, Wu Niang did needlework for others to subsidize the family. At the beginning, she complained that her eyes hurt, but later, tears and pus flowed, and finally she couldn't see anything. There are many children. Look, this A few people, all depended on me. In order to reduce expenses, we moved here to live here. The rent here is cheap. Since last year, the river bed has fallen, fewer boats are docked, and there are fewer jobs. During this period, it is really... ..." Huang Shunzi couldn't continue.

This home is already in shambles.Seeing that it was noon again, this guest came, but he was unable to cook and entertain him, so he couldn't hold back on his face.

"Oh, I didn't expect these things to happen!" Wang San sighed, in the village of Li's family, he felt that life was difficult, but he never thought that the old cousin was even more difficult than himself! "Then what are your plans next?"

Shaking his head, he was speechless.What else can I plan, Huang Shunzi feels that in the past two or three years, nothing has gone well for him!When you leave, you have to sell your daughter!
"Then, let's go, alas!" After Wang San finished speaking, he patted Huang Shunzi's shoulder. The old cousin has a heavy burden, and he can't help.It's noon, so he should take the person away. Seeing the situation, he doesn't have anything to eat.

"Father, I'm hungry. Let's go after lunch!" It seemed that he didn't even eat breakfast this morning. He walked all the way, startled and frightened. Looking at Huang Shunzi's family, Yang Ziqian felt even more uncomfortable.

Want lunch?Huang Shunzi's face became hot all at once?If there is a seam in the ground, it would be nice to let him get in.

Wang San was also embarrassed, how could this old cousin have the ability to entertain this group of people.

This girl is used to acting on winks.Who doesn't know the ruin of this family.He wanted his family to have a full meal too.

Forget it, I even did the good thing of spending three taels of silver to buy people, and I don't need to worry about spending a little more money to buy a lunch.

"What do you want to eat, daddy go buy it?" Yang Danian dotes on his daughter, he is not an ordinary pet, if he has the ability, if the fourth girl wants the moon in the sky, he will pick it off and give it to her.

Look, it's not just her, Yang Ziqian, who is kind-hearted, but the father also sympathizes with this family.

"Well, whatever you want, as long as you can fill your stomach!" You can't ask too much, with so many people, it will cost a lot to fill your stomach.

"Okay, Dad, go out and buy!" Yang Danian turned around and went to the street.Along the way, I seem to have seen one or two shops selling miscellaneous grains.

Huang Shunzi felt uncomfortable spending money on lunch, but felt better after all.Thinking about it, he smiled wryly again, Huang Shunzi behaved like a real person, but he never thought that one day, a guest would come to his door, but he had to pay for his own food, what is this called!
Second brother Yang is really kind, Wang San realized now that he was going to help his cousin.

Oh, what is the old cousin's day?
He hadn't been here for several years and had three more children. Wu Niang was also blind, the river bed fell, and there was no work to do.It is estimated that people like myself have to sell plums when they go forward.

"Old Cousin, I have something to ask you!" Seeing Wang San's eyes fixed on Meizi, Huang Shunzi suddenly remembered an important matter, greeted Wang San quickly, and the two left the room.

What is so mysterious, I still don't let myself and the others know.

Forget it, no matter what he does, he is an outsider and knows a lot, but he has to keep a secret and keep his mouth shut for others, which is a psychological burden.Yang Ziqian was not afraid of anything, but was most afraid of trouble. However, she got into trouble again today. Looking at the boy standing by the door with her brother, she felt that she was seriously ill!
"You said you want the Yang family to buy the plums?" Hearing Huang Shunzi's request, Wang San didn't know what to do. people's plans. "Second brother Yang's family is not a big family, how could he buy someone?"

"Old Cousin, I think the Yang family is kind-hearted. I bought one if I didn't buy it, and I don't want one more. I don't want his money, even if it's just one or two. I just want to find a way for Meizi to survive. In this family, starvation to death is a matter of one day at a time!" Huang Shunzi's eyes turned red when he mentioned this.An imposing seven-foot man, powerful, but unable to support his wife and children, he doesn't know what use it is to live!

"They will definitely not buy any more people right now." Wang San refused the matter on Yang Danian's behalf.Thinking about it, Meizi is at home, and I'm afraid she will be sold tomorrow.In this family, I don’t want to give away the small ones to others, and I only sell plums that are sensible and can help.Why not...

"How about this, old cousin. Last year, my family also collected some grain. If it weren't for the dry weather this year, I would have been able to help you. However, the weather is dry this year. When the rent is paid in autumn, I guess it will be sad. This plum , I will take her away for a while, and go to my house to raise her for a while, when will you get better, and when will you come pick her up!" There is only one child in the family, and adding one will not eat much, besides, as long as it can be delayed.
