A Lucky Wife Born Again From a Farm Family

Chapter 14: Want to sell people

Chapter 14: Selling someone

Qian Guangzong is the shopkeeper of a cloth shop. He is a typical unscrupulous businessman. He has long been planning to sell Gu Dashan's family.

But he asked Aunt Gu several times to persuade Old Mrs. Gu to sell Gu Dashan's family, but Old Mrs. Gu hesitated and refused to agree.

For Mrs. Gu, it is better to sell Gu Dashan's family than to have it under her nose. As a stepmother, there is nothing more comfortable than to have fun with the children of her first wife.

And if Gu Dashan's family is left behind, they can still work for their entire family, which is almost like buying a family of servants. If sold, the family's work would fall on her biological son. Mrs. Gu was reluctant to let it go, so she did not sell the Gu Dashan family for so many years.

But this time is different.

Aunt Gu said: "Mom, Gu Dashan's family got the favor of the village chief because of the water source. Today the village chief spoke for their family in front of the whole village and slapped you in the face. The third uncle and the third uncle's mother also helped Gu. The Dashan family, and that girl Xiaoyu, have become more and more aggressive after surviving the catastrophe. They have always been against us in the past two days, and with the support of the village chief, will Gu Dashan's family not be able to ride on us as time goes by? "

Aunt Gu looked around and saw Mr. Gu lying on a mat not far away, taking a nap. She lowered her voice and said, "Mom, you are the stepmother. No matter how good you are to the Gu Dashan family, you can't raise them well. Why don't we sell them as soon as possible? We can exchange for some food to survive the upcoming famine.

Along the way, there was less and less food to be found. If we walked for another half month, we might not even be able to find the leaves, grass or roots of the mountain rat. The family needed to make preparations early.

Gu Xiaomei supported from the side: "Mom, the eldest sister is right. We have treated Gu Dashan's family badly over the years. They definitely hate us. This time they got lucky and found water for the village. Now the village is helping them. With the support of the village chief and the villagers, they may not know how to retaliate against us, so it would be easier to sell it as soon as possible. You dont have to worry about having no one to work after selling their family, you can let the third brother and his family do it."

Gu Youfu is the second son of Mrs. Gu, but Mrs. Gu doesn't like this son who looks exactly like Mr. Gu. Among the three biological sons, Gu Youfu is beaten and scolded the most, making Gu Youfu's family more powerful than Gu Dashan's family. Mrs. Gu didn't feel distressed at all about the work.

Mrs. Gus slender eyes were half-closed, thinking about what Aunt Gu and Little Sister Gu said.

After a while, she looked at Mr. Gu, who was still taking a nap, and said to Aunt Gu: "Their family is in a period of prosperity now. This matter needs to be done slowly. You and Guangzong go and ask around first. If there is a suitable person, come back and tell them." I."

This is an agreement to sell Gu Dashan's family.

Aunt Gu and Qian Guangzong were so happy that what they had been thinking about for so long was finally done.

Aunt Gu said, "Don't worry, mother. I'll ask Guangzong to inquire about it in the next few days. I'll come back and tell mother as soon as I have any news."

In fact, the couple had been asking about selling people for grain and money, and had also talked to the stewards of several wealthy households, so they had no worries about finding a buyer.

Gu Xiaomei was delighted when she heard that the annoying family was finally going to be sold.

Mrs. Zheng was coaxing Gu Chengzhi not far away. She didn't know what was going on. Brother Zhi's arm kept hurting and he cried intermittently for a day. The crying made her upset. When she heard Mrs. Gu agreed to sell Gu Dashan's family, I feel a little more comfortable.

Qian Li'er was even more happy. She had long disliked Gu Jinxiu's charming son. At the beginning of last year, the son of the restaurant owner in the town met Gu Jinxiu and fell in love with her. He knew about the relationship between their family and Gu Jinxiu's family. So he came to their house to inquire about Gu Jinxiu's situation and wanted their family to help make peace.

She was furious at the time. The son of the restaurant owner in the town was one of her favorite husbands, but instead she fell in love with that **** Gu Jinxiu.

Fortunately, in the end, Aunt Gu used a trick to persuade the wife of the restaurant owner in the town to give up the idea of marrying Gu Jinxiu as her daughter-in-law, so it didn't work out.

The Gu Dashan family never knew about this incident, but Qian Lier was jealous and hated Gu Jinxiu.

After hearing that Mrs. Gu agreed to sell Gu Dashan's family, she quietly said to Qian Guangzong and Aunt Gu: "Mom and dad, Gu Jinxiu is good-looking. You can give Gu Jinxiu to the stewards, as long as they are in the rich family." Please give us some kind words in front of the master and give us more food."

Qian Li'er not only wants to sell Gu Dashan's family, but also destroy Gu Jinxiu.

Finally, she added uneasily: "You can't give Gu Jinxiu to a rich man, lest that foxy lady will charm the old man, seduce the rich man to come to us to settle accounts, and give her to a steward who has a wife." , let her be a concubine for the servants and suffer for the rest of her life!" Upon hearing what his daughter said, Qian Guangzong praised: "Li'er is smart, okay, dad knows."

Among the stewards he knew, there were two or three who were quite old but pretty.

After the Gu Dashan family exchanged water for food, they paid off the food they owed and gave Doctor Du a bowl of food as a thank you for curing Gu Jinli. The whole family was so happy that they never thought that Mrs. Gu would sell it. Their family.

After Gu Jinli and Aunt Gu and the others came to look through things, he took Gu Jinxiu and Cheng Geer to the resting place of the third grandma's house. While on the road, they made an agreement with the third grandma's family that they would eat and sleep with their family from now on.

The third grandma was very happy and had been looking forward to their coming.

Gu Dashan, who had always insisted on resting with the old Gu family because of his request for food and the beatings of Brother Cheng and Mr. Cui, had no objection this time.

The third grandma had already cooked the corn porridge and served it in a small wooden basin. When she saw Gu Jinli and the other three, she shouted happily: "Xiaoyu, bring some wooden bowls to the third grandma so we can serve the porridge."

Gu Jinli responded, untied the wooden bowl strung with straw rope, wiped it a few times, and gave it to the third grandmother. She looked at the corn porridge with only a shallow bottom and said, "It's corn porridge, this Good, raise people.

Millet is millet, which is a kind of coarse grain.

The third grandma smiled happily, filled a small bowl for each of the three siblings, and urged them: "Eat quickly, you are all starving and thin."

Looking at the children who were as thin as skeletons, the third grandma felt so distressed that she wanted to shed tears.

Gu Jinli put his bowl into Third Grandmas hand and said, Third Grandma will eat it too.

She filled a wooden bowl with a small amount and finished it in less than two sips. She smiled very satisfied and said, "The rest will be left for the third grandpa, my father, my mother, and my eldest brother to eat."

There is no organization in the village to find food tonight, but the third grandfather can't stay idle. He followed Gu Dashan and his son, and the Luo family and his son to look for food nearby. He has not returned yet.

Gu Jinli was afraid that the third grandma would persuade her to drink corn porridge again, so he took a wooden spoon to the pot next to him and stirred the food inside.

This is their family's staple food tonight. It is a stew of soybeans mixed with grass roots and leaves. Although they exchanged water for food, the road to escape was long and they had to save food.

The third grandma held the corn porridge that Gu Jinli stuffed in her hands, her eyes were red, this was the child's wish, she held a wooden bowl and ate it with big mouthfuls.

Gu Jinxiu and Cheng Geer saw her eating, so they took small bites from the bowl.

When the miscellaneous food in the pot was cooked, the third grandfather and the Luo family father and son also came back. Gu Dashan and Gu Jinan were not there. They went to deliver the food they found to the old Gu family.

Fifteen minutes later, they brought Ms. Cui over. Gu Jinli looked at Ms. Cui and felt relieved after confirming that she had not been beaten today.

Everyone dug water all night last night, and only took turns to rest for a period of time. Now they were so tired that they almost fainted. After having dinner with the third grandfather and the third grandmother, the whole family began to rest and had a good sleep. The second We continued our journey early in the morning.

On the road, Qian Guangzong and his wife were very busy. They always took advantage of their breaks to talk to the stewards of various wealthy households.
