Chapter 8 Selling Children

   Such a rare encounter, not to be missed, and he couldn't wait to bind with it when he was excited.

  After binding, it was discovered that the owner of this soul was just a milk doll.

  But within a few days, he accepted this fact. Whether it is a doll, it is just a blank sheet of paper. As long as he guides it secretly, and his soul is pure, he will definitely become a person of great merit in the future.

  Thinking of this, he is not in a hurry. Anyway, he can wait for a thousand years, and he doesn't mind waiting for a few more years.

  —

  In ancient times, peasant households didn’t have much entertainment at night, and oil lamps were expensive. When it got dark, they all lay in bed.

  Because of being frightened during time travel, Zhao Zhitong is unwilling to sleep alone these days, and always clings to Sun Mei to sleep together.

   And Sun Mei and Zhao Dong were worried about her sleeping alone, so they agreed.

  Sun Mei sprayed some toilet water on the mosquito net, drove the mosquitoes out with a fan, and then put down the mosquito net.

The little girl who just took a bath, like a small ball, got in with a swipe, and she didn't forget to remind: "Mother, I will go to school with you tomorrow, and I want to play with Zhao Yue. "

In the past, Sun Mei worked as a cook in the private school of the Wei gentry’s family in Xiaoyi Village next door. She only cooked one lunch a day, and the work was very easy. After Sun Mei traveled through time, she was afraid of being suspected, so she continued to do it. .

  Because there is no one at home to take care of Zhao Zhitong, so when Sun Mei goes to the private school to cook, she will always take her with her.

  Sun Mei pressed the edge of the mosquito net under the straw mat, then lay sideways next to Zhao Zhitong, coaxing her to sleep: "Okay, okay, then go to sleep."

  Zhao Zhitong thought he had made an appointment with his mother, so he nestled into Sun Mei's arms, closed his eyes, and fell asleep happily.

   On the second day, not long after the rooster crowed, Zhao Dong and Sun Mei woke up. The movement of the two of them getting off the bed seemed to startle Zhao Zhitong who was beside her. She turned over and sat up with a twitch: "Mother, are you going to school?"

   "It's still early, you sleep a little longer, mother will call you later."

  Before Sun Mei finished speaking, Zhao Zhitong lay down again, slipped into the quilt with his little **** and fell asleep.

  Farmers always get up early. When Sun Mei and Zhao Dong put on their clothes and went to the yard, the village had already heard the sound of dogs barking and villagers going out.

   Waiting for voices to come from the yard, Zhao Zhitong climbed off the bed, opened the door, and saw her mother was sending Tian Cuihua out: "Mother, are you leaving?"

   "Oh, why panic, it's still early."

  Send off Tian Cuihua, Sun Mei came back, picked up Zhao Zhitong, and walked into the house: "Let's put on clothes first, how can we run out wearing a bellyband, are you ashamed?"

   "Hey, what is daddy doing pushing the cart?" Zhao Zhitong looked at Zhao Dong who was busy in the yard and asked.

   "Your father is going to earn money."

  There is a bazaar today, Zhao Dong is going to the bazaar to sell bamboo baskets, so as to see what business opportunities there are.

  It is early in summer, and the farmers also get up early. If they go to the market, they get up even earlier. Zhao Dong also plans to go early.

  At that time, he had already piled the bamboo baskets on the cart.

  Sun Mei had baked the cake, boiled a pot of water, made three bowls of egg tea, added a spoonful of sugar, Zhao Dong drank the egg tea in a few sips, took the cake, and hurried out the door.

   "Tongtong, come back and eat the eggs."

  Zhao Zhitong stood at the door, looking at the direction Zhao Dong was leaving, very reluctant to give up, and when he heard Sun Mei's call, he turned and trotted back to the kitchen.

   "Mother, I also want to go to the market."

  Sun Mei put the egg tea on the dining table, turned around and hugged the little guy to the stool, and gave her the spoon to eat by herself.

  Hearing what Zhao Zhitong said, he laughed: "Why do you want to go everywhere, your father is here to make money, what are you going to do?"

  Zhao Zhitong: "I'm going to make money too."

   "You? Haha, it's not bad for you to spend money." Sun Mei didn't take Zhao Zhitong's words to heart, and turned and entered the kitchen.

  She is going to knead some dough, and when she comes back from school, the dough is fermented and she can steam steamed buns.

In ancient times, there was no yeast powder for the fermentation of steamed buns, and old yeast noodles were used as the raw material for the dough. The yeast noodles were generally fermented dough left over from the last time steamed buns were steamed, so they were also called old yeast noodles or old yeast. Heads, which are usually kept in farmers' homes.

  They had just separated, and there was no old leavened flour in the house, so they hadn’t steamed buns all the time, and it was uncomfortable to eat bread every day.

   And just now Tian Cuihua sent her the old yeast head. During the chat yesterday, Sun Mei asked by the way, but she did not expect her to send it here today.

  Sun Mei couldn't help but sigh in her heart, this Tian Cuihua is really a warm-hearted person.

  —

  It was not so early to go to the private school to cook. Sun Mei kneaded the noodles and then washed the clothes in the yard. Because there was washing powder in Zhao Zhitong's space, Sun Mei seldom went to the river to wash clothes.

   And Zhao Zhitong squatted in front of the house and played by himself.

  At this moment, she suddenly heard a burst of crying, and talking loudly. She looked up and saw several adults standing at the gate of the courtyard of her uncle's mother's house.

  Zhaozhai Village is the largest village among several villages with a radius of several miles. There are a total of sixty-nine households, and the houses are all built together.

  The yard where Zhao Dong's family lives is at the end of the village, and the yard shared by Zhu's mother and son is not far from them. They are all in an alley, separated by two families.

  Sometimes at home, you can hear Zhu's voice beating and scolding the children, so Zhao Zhitong knows that this aunt is very fierce.

  At that time, when I heard the cry of the child, I thought the auntie was beating the child again.

   Sure enough, in the next second, I saw the uncle pulling a little girl out of the house with one hand, followed by two boys.

  These three children are the sons and daughters of the uncle's mother. Zhao Zhitong recognizes them. The girl is Zhao Ya, and the two boys are Zhao Cheng and Zhao Yu.

I saw Zhao Ya holding Zhu Sanniang's arm tightly, crying heartbreakingly: "Mother, mother, don't betray me, I will be obedient, I won't eat, mother, woo woo, please, mother."

   Zhao Cheng and Zhao Yu, who ran out behind, also cried and begged for mercy: "Mother, don't sell out your sister, don't sell out your sister."

   "Why are you crying, don't you want to eat meat? If my sister sells it, we will have money to eat meat." Zhu Sanniang broke Zhao Ya's hand cruelly, and ruthlessly pushed it to the head of the human tooth woman.

  Zhao Yu grabbed Zhu Sanniang, looked at his helpless sister, and begged, "We won't eat meat anymore, mother, don't sell your sister."

The woman grabbed Zhao Ya, looked at the family, and said with a humming smile: "Don't cry, your sister won't be able to live a good life in your family. It's better to be a maid in a rich family. It's not as good as your whole family. Starve to death."

Speaking of which, the human tooth woman checked Zhao Ya, and after finding no physical defects, she nodded in satisfaction, took out the silver from her bosom, and handed it to Zhu Sanniang: "Take the three taels of silver, I will take it away , there are still things to sell in the future, come to me, five taels of silver for male dolls."

   As he spoke, he glanced at Brother Zhao Cheng, and they were so scared that they forgot to cry.

  Zhao Zhitong, who was not far away, saw the woman grabbing the crying cousin, and then gave the uncle money, stood up in fright, screamed, and rushed to the house.
