Chapter 1864 (1/2)
Qixuan fanwai (27)
aunt Dou helped Qixuan to bed, and then put things together. By this time, it was already dark.
The meal was placed on the table, and Qixuan had no appetite, but he ate it slowly.
Looking at Aunt Dou, who was still eating well, Qixuan couldn't help asking, ”why don't you get angry when they rob us so much?”
Aunt Dou's heart was shocked, but soon she adjusted: ”how about anger? Can they give us back things if they are angry? Now I'm worried that the village head's wife won't take me up the mountain any more. ”
Qixuan's attention was shifted: ”I can go now. When I recover, I will accompany you to the mountain! ” The people here are savage and domineering. He doesn't want to contact with them more.
Hearing Qixuan's rejection of AGA people, aunt Dou said, ”no way. If we have a bad relationship with them, they will not take you out of the village to buy things. Then we will have no salt to eat. ” Oil, so precious, they haven't eaten it for a long time.
Qi Xuan wanted to be tough, but he couldn't be tough when he thought about the cliff and the beasts in the mountain. The cruel reality forced him to have a low and noble head. Otherwise, we can't survive here.
The next morning, aunt Dou went to the village head's house. Qixuan looks at her back and doesn't speak.
More than half an hour later, aunt Dou came back. I didn't come back empty handed. I brought a fish with me.
Aunt Dou said with a smile, ”this is from the village head's wife. We will have a good luck later.”
The village head felt that Aunt Dou was not only a man with high eyebrows, but also a city-state, who could not be underestimated. So he wanted his wife to make friends with aunt Dou.
Of course, the village head thought aunt Dou would be NiTi's daughter-in-law, or else she would be on guard rather than making friends. Although Qixuan's injury has greatly improved, the village head doesn't think Qixuan can beat Nitti.
After more than half a month of non-human torture, Qi Xuan's pride has been completely consumed.
Seeing the fish in aunt Dou's hand, Qixuan lying on the bed said guiltily, ”Qiao Niang, have you been wronged?”
Aunt Dou was stunned at first, then she said with a smile: ”the village head's wife didn't give me a look, and there was no grievance. In the past, when I met the tricky guests on the fishing boat, I had to not only scold but also greet them with a smile. In this way, they may not pay us all the ship's money. At that time, I felt really aggrieved. ”
”Must have been bullied a lot at that time?”
Aunt Dou nodded and said, ”I remember when I was ten years old, a guest hit me. He not only didn't apologize, but also slapped me to the ground and scolded my parents. My father and mother accompanied him for a while, and asked me to kneel down and kowtow for him, so he gave up. ” Her face was beaten and swollen for several days.
It's also a very deep memory, so aunt Dou hasn't forgotten it yet.
Qixuan didn't expect aunt Dou's life as a child to be so difficult. At present, Qixuan couldn't help asking, ”it's so hard. Why don't you go back home? It's better to do something at home than to run a boat. ”
In the Ming Dynasty, the two emperors worked hard, and now the people live and work in peace and contentment. As long as it's not easy to eat and lazy to do, you won't be hungry.
Aunt Dou smiled, and the smile was full of bitterness: ”my grandfather's bad gambling, not only sold the house and the farm property, but also owed a lot of debt. He took my 14-year-old aunt to pay off the debt. When these people wanted help at home, my grandmother happened to be helping others with her parents. When she got the news, my grandmother ran out with my father and aunt. Because I ran out in a hurry, I didn't bring anything, and I didn't have a household registration. At that time, it was often a meal of hunger. It's been a very difficult time. ” The girls who have been paid off are all sold to the kilns. Once in a place like that, it's ruined for life.
Qi Xuan is no longer worldly, but also knows that it's not easy for a woman to take two children to live outside.
”My grandmother fell ill because she was afraid and did not have enough to eat every day. Seeing that my grandmother couldn't survive, my aunt found someone to sell herself. At that time, my aunt wanted to be a servant girl in a big family, but the big family liked to use their family to have children, and even if they wanted to buy it, they only wanted to buy the younger ones for such convenience. ” With that said, aunt Dou looked at Qixuan and said, ”you think it's hard now, but when you can't help watching your relatives suffer, it's really hopeless.” This is what her aunt told her.
Qi Xuan's heart was raised and asked, ”what happened later? How is your aunt? ”
Aunt Dou said: ”the man told my aunt that there is only one way to save my grandmother, that is to marry. Fortunately, the man was kind-hearted and found a generous family for my aunt. Although my uncle has a lame leg, he has been very good to my aunt these years. ” Aunt Dou's aunt is not bad. If she didn't open her mouth and ask for twenty liang of bride price, there would be no dowry. No one would dare to marry her.
”In this world, there are still many good people.”
Aunt Dou nodded, ”yes! My aunt would have been ruined in her life if she met a black heart In fact, it's not all luck. Aunt Dou's aunt doesn't just ask for someone to sell herself. She asked about the man's reputation before she found him.
Qixuan also became interested and asked, ”how is your aunt doing now?”
”It's not good, it's not bad. It's just that I worry about firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea all day.” In fact, if you are as noble as the empress dowager, you have to worry about this unfilial son!
