Chapter 5
Mrs. Cai is a matchmaker from the next village, specializing in human trafficking.In the past, when people in the nearby villages couldn't survive, they would take the initiative to come to find Mrs. Cai. Mrs. Cai had a wide range of roads and gave a lot of money. If she was good-looking, the price would be even higher.

Yu Shi was still sleepy a second ago, but when he heard Ruan Shi's words, his eyes lit up: "How much can this person sell for?"

Ruan thought for a while and said, "It depends on what kind of goods you want. In the past, if you sold a girl like Gu Yueniang in the village to become a 'common wife' in the mountains, you could get five taels of silver. It's worth ten taels of silver, the man I saw in Mu Mian today is very handsome, probably worth more."

Mrs. Yu nodded, that gentleman is really good-looking, if he sells it in Nalaoshizilou, he will definitely be the number one.

Feng Dalin, who had been silent all this time, said at this moment: "Mother, wouldn't it be nice to sell the second sibling and their reputation?" He is a child, so he can't ruin his reputation.

Yu stared at him: "It was Gu Yueniang who disrespected my mother-in-law and beat me. If Gu Yueniang's behavior would go to court, she would have to be punished. She was wronged. What do we have to be afraid of?"

Thinking of this, Yu Shi said to Ruan Shi: "Leave this matter to you, but you have to do it for me."

The Ruan family agreed, and Feng Dachuan accompanied her back to her natal home overnight.

In the early morning of the next day, a middle-aged woman wearing gold and silver came into the courtyard of Lao Feng's house with Ruan. Behind her was a man who looked like a servant, and he looked very handsome.

Early in the morning, the neighbors were still at home, and everyone came out to watch the excitement.

The sharp-eyed person recognized Mrs. Cai, and clicked twice: "Mr. Cai is a well-known matchmaker in all towns and villages. She only picks beautiful girls and boys to sell in the county. This old Feng's family doesn't seem to be short of money on weekdays. Who is this going to sell to?"

"Bah! What's the lack of money? The lack of morality is almost the same. Although the age is not fair now, it is not to the point of selling children and daughters."

"."

Mrs. Yu didn't hear what the neighbor said. When she heard that Gu Yueniang could sell it for ten taels of silver, she happily took Mrs. Cai to Kapok's room.

At that time, Kapok was still sleeping soundly due to insomnia the night before, Mrs Yu gave Mrs Xu a wink, Mrs Xu nodded and was about to hit someone.

Granny Cai on the side hurriedly stopped her: "This girl's skin is the most precious, so don't let it go."

Granny Cai said slowly, "Just take a basin of cold water and wake up."

With a sound of "wow--", in the morning of late autumn, this ladle of water was poured down, and the kapok was completely cooled.

She sat up startled, and saw a group of people surrounding her, the woman in front looked her up and down even more, and then said to Mrs Yu: "Old Madam, your daughter Jingui, I give you a gift of 20 taels of silver. "

bride price?Could it be that Mrs. Yu "married" her again?

Kapok was at a loss, but she knew that there would definitely be a tough battle to fight today, so she wiped the water from her face with her hands, got dressed and got out of bed calmly.

Seeing the majestic appearance of kapok, Mrs. Cai said again: "I see that your daughter is my favorite, so I will give you 30 taels of betrothal gift."

Mrs. Yu was delighted when she heard that, 30 taels, that's enough for the whole family to chew for five or six years, if it was Dalang's Shuxiu, it would be enough for two or three years.

Mrs. Yu nodded again and again: "Cheng, Cheng, Cheng——"

Seeing this, Mrs. Cai came to pull kapok: "Good girl, let's go with Mrs. Cai."

Mu Mian snorted coldly, shook off Mrs. Cai's hand, and walked out of the house by herself, and walked straight to the courtyard. When she saw Gu Yueniang and the two younger ones, she stood still.

Seeing that the courtyard wall was already full of people, Mu Mian said loudly: "Dare to ask this Granny Cai, what is the dowry you are talking about? I just got married yesterday, why does my grandma want to accept your dowry and ask me with you?"

Mrs. Cai's complexion was as usual. Ruan had told her about the situation before she came, and she still smiled kindly: "Good girl, my mother-in-law took you to enjoy the blessings, not to harm you, don't be afraid, just go with my mother-in-law."

Kapok laughed angrily: "You're just a trafficker, why do you still think you're a Buddha? With a heart so rotten like you, no matter how good you say it, it smells bad."

Mrs. Cai was still not annoyed, on the contrary, she was pleasantly surprised. Is she going to find a treasure this time?This little girl is good-looking, smart, eloquent, good at training, and she will be sent to the capital in the future, no, even if she is sent to the palace to be a nobleman, it will not be a problem.

She said softly and softly: "My daughter, why do you have to say it so badly? Everyone else is begging your mother-in-law to come. What good can you do by staying here? Follow your mother-in-law, and you will be a nobleman in the future."

"What a shameless person, he can do everything!" Mu Mian looked at Yu Shi and the others with sharp eyes, "Grandma, are you going to sell me and my mother today?"

Mrs. Yu is a smart one. She sat down on the ground and howled: "Folks, my second daughter-in-law is not a human being. The old woman just said a few words to her yesterday, and she beat me up. Look, I am The wounds all over the body, and my eldest daughter-in-law, were all beaten up by their mother and daughter--it's not that I was cruel to sell them, it was their mother and daughter who disregarded filial piety and hurt others--"

Everyone stretched their necks to see, sure enough, Mrs Yu's cheeks were red and swollen, and Mrs Xu's outstretched arms were also black and blue.

Mu Mian said coldly: "Grandma, are you ashamed to say that my mother beat you? Who in this village doesn't know that my mother has a good temper and allows you to bully her every day? All uncles, aunts, grandpas and uncles, look at my mother, how can there be a smile on her face?" Are you in good health? Look at my two siblings, they are covered in wounds on their heads and bodies."

Gu Yueniang's injuries were not easy to show, so Mu Mian took off Feng Junbao's clothes for everyone to see.

Feng Junbao's skin was white, and his thin skin was covered with red marks and bruises. Seeing the five-year-old boy skinny and skinny, all the people present gasped when they saw it.

Feng Junyi was already scared, so she burst into tears and shouted with puckered mouth: "You hit me, you scold me, I won't cry and I won't shout—don't betray my mother—don't betray me mother--"

Feng Junbao on the side imitated the example and started crying too.

Gu Yueniang also rushed to the side of the two babies, crying out of breath.

Seeing such a scene, those kind-hearted eyes immediately turned red, and someone took the lead in scolding: "You have no conscience, you are not afraid of thunder and lightning, what are you bullying people into? That skinny, It's really pathetic—"

Everyone was whispering again, most of them were scolding Mrs Yu, but it saved Kapok's tongue.

Mu Mian was relieved, but Yu became anxious, she jumped up and cursed: "Li's, what nonsense are you talking about, it was the child who fell and fell by himself, not us!"

The person who took the lead in scolding turned out to be from the Li family. Hearing what Yu said, the Li family said loudly: "Bah! Who doesn't know you, Yu Qiushuang? It's not a day or two for our neighbors to see you, Dashan daughter-in-law. How are we living with the children, can we who live in the next room know?"

Mrs. Yu spat: "I sold my daughter-in-law, what do you have to do with you outsiders, get out of my way, and take care of other people's affairs when I'm full. My mother has raised them for so many years, today is the time for them to repay their favor!"

At this time, noisy voices suddenly sounded outside the crowd, and after a while, the crowd dispersed automatically, and Feng Dashan was carried by two villagers with wooden boards.

When he arrived in front of Mrs. Yu, Feng Dashan struggled to sit up: "Mother, I beg you, don't sell Yueniang and the others, my son saved you—"

Feng Dashan seems to have injured his foot, and his upper body is prostrate on the ground, boom, boom, boom——

Holding back the tears, I kowtowed my head a few times, and the blood oozed out immediately. The scene was really pitiful.

Those who were still holding back their tears couldn't help turning their heads away. The one who suffers the most is Feng Dashan, a filial son!

Yu's heart is hard-hearted, she said quickly: "What's the matter with your legs?"

Feng Dashan raised his eyes, foolishly thinking that his mother was caring about him, his eyes lit up and said: "I'm worried about Yueniang and the others, they were a little anxious when they went down the mountain, and accidentally rolled down the mountain, mother, don't worry, my mother It's okay, but the right leg is injured, it may be broken."

"Snapped--"

Yu's slap slapped Feng Dashan's face: "I'll kill you trash! I'll kill you trash!"

The eyes of the tall and mighty man like a mountain bag dimmed, and he continued to plead with red eyes: "Mother, please don't sell Yueniang and the others, I will definitely make a lot of money, make a lot of money to honor you, please, don't sold them."

"How can you make money after you have a broken leg? My Feng family has no money to treat your illness! Waste of money, you're going to piss me off!" Shi Yu raised her hand and slapped him.

Suddenly, a slender hand grabbed Yu Shi's wrist.

"Snapped--"

Another slap sounded.
