After rebirth, the cheapskate just wants to farm

Chapter 26 Little Poor Something Happened
The geographical location of Chongyue Academy is very good. It is located in the north city of Qingyuan County, facing the county government in the south of the city. The surrounding area is quieter than that in the south of the city, but there are all kinds of bookstores and small restaurants in the surrounding area.

Dongshi was not far from the academy, so Xie Wuyu came here after strolling around.But she didn't intend to go in, so she picked a noodle stall that was nearby and could see the gate of the academy, ordered a bowl of Yangchun noodles and started eating.

The noodle stall is run by a middle-aged couple. There are many customers, almost filling the entire stall.The soup is rich and fragrant, and Xie Wuyu took a look at the yellow fried eggs that she specially asked to add, and he was hungry immediately.Afraid that I would waste it if I couldn't finish it, I asked the boss to take out another half of the clean bowl, and wait for Xie Wuyou to come out to eat.

The door of the academy is not big, but it looks very rich. On the top is an ebony plaque, with four golden characters written "Chongyue Academy", which can be called low-key luxury and connotation.

But the door was not peaceful, there were many people coming out and going in.Xie Wuyu stared at the entrance of the academy while eating noodles.

It's just that the more I look at it, the more I feel a little strange. There are not only boys and girls here, but there are also some little girls. Although the number is not very large, the clothes of these girls are also similar to those of male students, as if... They are also here. Same as school.

The proprietress is a chubby middle-aged woman with a kind smile on her face. At this time, there are no guests. Seeing her eating noodles alone, she came up to talk to her curiously.

"Is the little girl alone?"

Xie Wuyu took a mouthful of noodles and put them into his mouth, his left cheek immediately swelled up, chewing the noodles in his mouth, he replied vaguely: "No, I'm waiting for someone."

The proprietress glanced at the entrance of the academy: "Is the person waiting in the academy?"

"Yes." Xie Wuyu nodded, took a big mouthful of noodles again, this time the right cheek bulged.

The proprietress is middle-aged but has no children. Seeing such a pretty little girl eating noodles obediently and earnestly at this moment, maternal love overflows in her heart instantly, so she sits opposite Xie Wuyu with kind eyes like water.

"Do you have any brothers studying in it?"

"Yeah." Xie Wu swallowed the noodles in his mouth, and did not rush to take another bite, "Auntie, can I ask why those little girls... can also enter the academy?"

The proprietress explained with a smile: "What are you talking about? Didn't the yamen suddenly say that they want to open a girls' school some time ago? They couldn't find another good place, so they just allocated a place in Chongyue Academy to open it."

girls' school!

Xie Wuyu opened his eyes wide in disbelief, this world is too enlightened, and even opened a girls' school!

Seeing that she was interested, the proprietress continued: "I heard that it has already been established in the capital city. It was suggested by the eldest princess that women should also be able to read and write like men. Only when women know more can they be able to teach their husbands and children, and understand right and wrong." Distinguish between good and evil. In fact, I think it’s a good thing for a girl to be able to study, although she can’t take the same scientific examination as a man, it’s still a way out, isn’t it?”

Xie Wuyu was surprised: "Women can't take science exams?"

The proprietress smiled: "How can I? Although women are allowed to study now, they are not the same as men. The main thing is to learn some piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, female celebrity, and etiquette. personally taught at home."

Xie Wuyu suddenly realized that this is the case. It seems that although this world is more enlightened, it is actually a society where men are respected. However, women are treated extremely preferentially. There are no anti-human customs such as foot binding and chest binding. The degree of freedom is relatively high.

This is also very good, at least in the future, if you want to make money or something, you won't be accused of being unruly every day.And if there is a girls' school, can Xie Wuyou also be sent to try?
Xie Wuyu has always felt that Xie Wuyou's temperament is too detached, and his person is too simple, so he is easy to be deceived in the future.If you can find a teacher to teach you, you can avoid detours.

Xie Wuyu became interested, so he asked the proprietress to inquire about many girls going to school.This idea was put forward by the current eldest princess. She is the elder sister of the current emperor. She was extremely favored by the former emperor when he conquered the world. At the beginning of the chaos, the founding emperor would unify Daewoo a few years later, the tartars in the north plotted to take the eldest princess away, and before they left the customs, they were beaten to death by the emperor with a hundred thousand elite soldiers.

The Emperor Shengzu was furious, so he went straight to the Tartar's hometown and rescued the princess. The eldest princess was already a very noble person since she was born. Children are brought up in general, she has what men have, and she still has men without men.

The eldest princess is enlightened and righteous, the eldest princess is gentle and martial, and the eldest princess has a respected status.

Xie Wuyu rubbed his chin and pondered, this eldest princess is obviously cheating, it's as if she took the script of the heroine.

But according to the proprietress, it is because of the existence of the eldest princess that Daewoo's female status has been improved like a fly, and many rights are equal to men.

It is said that the Emperor Shengzu directly changed the "marriage law" in order to ensure his daughter's life after marriage, that is, if the husband and wife reconcile, the man must compensate the woman for half of the family property so that the woman can remarry smoothly.

This law is wonderful. Xie Wuyu's eyes lit up when he heard it. Such a law can be implemented successfully. It seems that the Emperor Shengzu is indeed very courageous.

After chatting with the proprietress for a while, Xie Gui and the others finally came out, but Xie Wuji stayed in the academy, and if he wanted to see him, he had to come to the county to visit in person, or he had to wait for the kid Xiumu.Li's eyes were still red when she came out, Xie Gui kept coaxing in a low voice.

The location of the noodle stall was good, and one could see where Xie Wuyu was at a glance. They settled their lunch directly at the noodle stall, and then went to meet the two aunts who had entered the city, and went straight back to the village.

On the way, Xie Wuyu told Xie Gui that a big customer had ordered strawberries, and they would deliver them to his door three days later, and he also handed over all the money he got from selling strawberries today to Xie Gui.

When Xie Gui heard that this wild mountain fruit called strawberry can be sold for twenty yuan a catty, his jaw almost fell to the ground in shock. Looking at Xie Wuyu like an alien.

Xie Gui and Li Shi were stunned for a long time before they came back to their senses, and then they were so happy that they didn't know whether to praise or worry, in short, they were pleasantly surprised.

However, when Xie Gui proposed to do strawberry business for a long time, Xie Wuyu specifically told him about the performance of the two aunts, and explained that unless they cultivated by themselves, the villagers would sooner or later pick strawberries like them and sell them. If there are too many people, their family will not be able to earn much money, and the strawberry field is so big that many people can't help picking it.

Xie Wuyu was eager to try and expressed that he wanted to find a way to grow strawberries by himself. At that time, Xie Gui had recovered from the windfall, and indulged Xie Wuyu to "play around": "Okay, when I go back, Dad will clean up for you. to the yard."

Xie Wuyu pursed his lips and smiled: "Thank you Dad."

While on the bullock cart, Xie Wuyu told everyone the news he got from the lady of the noodle stall, saying that he would definitely send Xie Wuyou to the academy to study for a few years if he had the opportunity, which scared Xie Wuyou so well that he was very cute all the way , I didn't dare to show an air, and as soon as I made eye contact with Xie Wuyu, I showed a flattering smile.

The whole family laughed secretly, they never thought Xie Wuyou, a little monkey, would be afraid of reading.

This has strengthened Xie Wuyu's determination to send his younger sister to the academy. Poor Xie Wuyou still doesn't know how miserable his fate will be in the future. At this moment, he can only smile tremblingly at his sister and pray for her Can hold her hands high and let her go.

The relaxed atmosphere came to an abrupt end when they returned to the entrance of the village. A small group of people gathered together with excitement on their faces, saliva spraying from their mouths, talking excitedly, and ran towards the back of the village while talking.

Not only that, but many people ran out of their homes, with gossipy, distorted excitement on their faces, running in the same direction with the flow of people.

Xie Gui helped his wife and children get out of the car, and stopped a running man in confusion and asked, "What happened in the village?"

The person who was caught replied, "I don't know who is going to sell the child" and ran away eagerly.

Xie Gui frowned and looked at the direction of the flow of people, "What age is it now, are there still people selling children? Beast."

Xie Wuyu's eyebrows twitched without warning, feeling a bad premonition in his heart.In the next moment, before she could feel anything, she saw a black figure running against the flow of people in the distance, rushing to Xie's house without stopping, if Xie Gui hadn't pulled Xie Wuyu, she might have been arrested people hit.

Xie Wuyu looked at the person who came, and had a strange premonition in his heart—something might have happened to the poor little boy.

Lan Tie supported his knees and panted violently, his face was twisted into a ball, and his eyes were fixed on Xie Wuyu: "Quick, hurry up and save people, the wild child will be sold."

Xie Wuyu's brain exploded with a "boom", and he was dizzy for a while.

Fuck, she knew nothing good would happen.

Xie Wuyu squeezed past Xie Gui, pulled up Lan Tie and ran towards Wu's house without stopping.

"Hey, hey. Let me rest for a while..." Lan Tie hadn't even breathed yet, and fell into running again.

Xie Gui and Li Shi were dumbfounded, Li Shi held Xie Gui to stabilize his body, "What, what's going on?"

Xie Gui came back to his senses, picked up Xie Wuyou and pulled Li Shi to stride forward, gritted his teeth with a gloomy face and said angrily: "I don't know, there must be something wrong with the Wu family, Xiaoyu is rushing up to beg No good."

Li was surprised and angry: "What's the hurry, Xiaoyu? Wu Laolai is not easy to dismiss. Let's go, hurry up, we can't let Xiaoyu suffer."

Xie Gui's face became even more gloomy. He had reminded Xie Wuyu a long time ago, but he didn't expect that the little girl would take his words as empty air and dare to defy her. Very good, very good.

Xie Wuyu couldn't take care of anything else at this time. Although there were not many things about selling children, the excitement that made the villagers so excited and rushed to watch was not simply selling children.

Scolding in her heart while running, Xie Wuyu felt like her heart was about to jump out. She hadn't run so violently since she recovered. She wanted to ask Lan Tie what was going on and why he was so flustered, but she just opened her mouth. The cold wind poured into her mouth, choking her eyes and nose sore.

Before arriving at Wu's house, he saw Wu Yangyang from a distance, Lan Tie couldn't run anymore for a group of people, Xie Wuyu left him and tried his best to squeeze into the encirclement, and the people who were squeezed complained mournfully.

"Who is it? Crowd what? You'll die if you don't watch the excitement?"

"I'm sick, what are you rushing to reincarnate?"

Xie Wuyu was anxious, she saw the little poor lying motionless on the ground in the crowd, she wondered if she was still alive.

Don't die, you just found your savior and haven't repaid your debt of gratitude, so if she dies, who will she cry to?It suddenly appeared in front of my eyes that when I was surrounded by zombies in my previous life, I also looked like this, with no gaps in the blackness.The base was right in front of her eyes, but she was suddenly surrounded by twisted and terrifying zombies. How did she feel at that time?
Desperation, inescapable despair, since she was a child, she has worked so hard to live, to live a better life, and finally her life has changed a bit, but she is facing the end of the world.

If she hadn't just met the savior's team, she would have died long ago or simply became as unconscious as a zombie.

If it weren't for him...

"Let's go, let's go, I have something urgent..."

"Thanks, Wu, Yu!"

Accompanied by the voice of subdued anger every word, Xie Wuyu's neck tightened, and then a burst of force pulled her out of the encirclement.

"What do you want to do?" Xie Gui was still holding Xie Wuyou in one hand, while the other hand was tightly grabbing Xie Wuyu's back collar and shouted in a low voice, "What does this have to do with you? What are you capable of?" Take care of it, huh?"

Xie Wuyu froze, his mind was half awake.

Her father is right, how can she manage this matter?Poor little girl was adopted by the Wu family with a certificate from the government. With the same parents and children, Wu Laolai and even people with relatives in the Wu family can deal with a child of a few years old. She is an outsider, what can she do?
She hurriedly hugged Xie Gui with both hands and pulled her collar, and asked in a fast and chaotic way: "Daddy, daddy, can you help me, help me? Poor little girl is about to be beaten to death." If it is really sold, I’m afraid it won’t last long.”

Now is not a few decades ago, when the land was divided and the princes went to war and the people had no means of living. Now is the time when everything is waiting to be done. The emperor has given the people a lot of preferential treatment. The life is not particularly good now, but there will be almost no starvation in every family. situation, so the phenomenon of selling children is not much.

So now it costs a lot of money to buy a child. The boys and girls who are sold are better to be sold to a rich family as servants or maids.If he was sold to Goulanyuan or the palace, his life would be worse than death.The girls who were sold to the palace were lucky, but the boys might not survive.

Xie Wuyu was also in a panic, that's why he felt chills all over when he thought of those consequences.

After seeing Xie Gui, he felt that there might be another way, for example, it would be good if he bought Xiaopoor himself. After buying it, he would be able to break up with the Wu family and have nothing to do with it. This is the best ending, isn't it?
Xie Wuyu's eyes were red, and he looked at Xie Gui earnestly and eagerly: "Father, can you buy him, he will die, he will definitely die."

Xie Gui hugged Xie Wuyu, and his generous big hands kept soothing her back and head: "Don't worry, don't worry. Do you know how much no one wants?"

Xie Wuyu clasped Xie Gui's shoulders tightly with both hands, and was stunned.It's not cheap to buy a person now, the younger the child, the more valuable it is, at least ten taels of silver for a poor one.

Xie Wuyu's hand holding Xie Gui's shoulder slowly tightened, and he said with some shame: "Father, didn't we just sell ginseng? It should be affordable, right?"

Xie Gui sighed, and said earnestly, "Have you ever thought about what to do next? It's not easy to raise a person. Do you care if he will have a family and start a business in the future? What will people in the village think of our family if we buy him? Do you wonder why our family has so much money?"

Xie Wuyu was completely stunned. She had never thought about it. Their family lived in a village. There was no partition between skyscrapers, and there was no principle of not disturbing each other. No matter how good the relationship between neighbors is, they like to see other people's jokes , saliva can drown people.

Xie Wuyu's tears fell without warning, because she always thought everything was too simple, but...

"Ouch! Hurry up, hurry up, catch that little bastard, don't let him get away! Fucking bastard, see if I don't kill you."

"Let go of me! Let go of me!"

The child lying on the ground suddenly jumped up, and rushed towards the crowd like a trapped beast trying to escape.The person who came to buy someone was a thin and dry old man, holding a long black and shiny cigarette in his hand, and a similar black cigarette bag was dangling on it. His tone of voice was an unfamiliar calm, commanding people Catch kids.

"Be quick with your hands and feet, and don't hurt the child again."

This man's voice was also hoarse and dry, and it sounded like a whisper from hell in the ears of a child.

He turned around and rushed to Wu Lalai, knelt on the ground with a plop and grabbed Wu Lalai's trouser legs: "Don't sell me, please, I can work very well, and I don't eat much. Don't run away anymore, please don't sell me out."

Xie Wuyu froze on the spot, tears streaming down her cheeks, and the little pitiful's desperate cries filled her ears, she slowly clenched her fists.

Wu Laolai spat, shook his legs and kicked the child away viciously. Seeing the child, he rushed forward and mercilessly slapped his feet. The child lay on the ground without moving for a long time.

Ren Yazi frowned: "Okay, it won't be easy to take care of if it's broken."

Wu Laolai nodded and bowed with a smile: "Yes, yes, stop kicking, isn't it because the child is disobedient?"

Ren Yazi hummed without moving, and his subordinates pulled the child up and held it in his hands like a cargo.

"I said you are too stubborn a kid, why don't you just follow me, your appearance is destined to make a fortune, in the future, Qing will wait for fame and drink, wouldn't it be a dead end to follow your adoptive father, hehe."

"Wu Laolai, what you are doing is inhumane. If the village chief comes back, he must report to the officials."

Wu Laolai stared at the speaker unexpectedly: "What does it have to do with you if I sell my child, even if I buy him into the Goulan courtyard, you don't care."

"Hey, why don't you know what to do? The village chief said before that no human trafficking is allowed in our village. You dare to do such a thing while the old man is away. Aren't you afraid that the village chief will punish you?"

Wu Laolai's expression was not very good, but when he saw the person carefully counting the money that was about to be handed over, he immediately smiled happily.

A handful is not too small, and it is strung heavily on the rope.The child's whole body hurts, and the eyes of the pain are black, but even if he bites the tip of his tongue, he doesn't want to faint. He wants to remember everyone here, who sells his, buys his, watches the excitement, gloats, And the string of money, he must keep it all in his mind.

Wu Lalai was so excited that he rubbed his hands and was about to pick up the money.

At the very moment, a person rushed out from the crowd and slammed into Wu Lalai, with such force that he knocked Wu Lalai over, and the money that should have been in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter. into the mud.

The child opened his eyes wide, looking at the people rushing out of the crowd, a faint hope ignited in his heart:
"Help me, save me—"
