Disastrous year!Before the whole family is wiped out, a little blessing falls from the sky!

Chapter 169 Some people are mothers, but they don’t do motherly things!

Mrs. Tai Jijin went out to buy a coffin for the funeral and spent all the little money she had saved at home. However, her youngest son had contracted the cold not long ago and had to take some medicine.

Before Tai Jijin said anything, their mother-in-law Sun Meihua was about to sell her second daughter to support the family!

Yang Lihua and Liu Dongniang both frowned when they heard this, especially Liu Dongniang, who sighed and said, "Even if life is a little more difficult, it is better than winter! Besides, if you persist for three months, the fields will be harvested. There must be many people who value corn and sell it." You can make a small fortune from seeds, so why sell your children!
Rich families can be cruel. It is common for slaves to be beaten and scolded. How can they let their children suffer like that! "

Yang Lihua was also angry and responded, "What's the reason? I value my son more than my daughter! Now that I sell myself as a slave, I have at least ten taels of silver, which is enough for the family to eat well and live until autumn! You are worried about the suffering of your child, I am dear Don’t worry, mother!”

What she said was full of sarcasm, but she was actually angry in her heart.

Since we opened a small school at home, from the first dozen children to now there are only seven or eight left who are still persisting every day.Among them, the one who studies most seriously is either a boy from another family or the second daughter, Tai Jijin.

Just like Chunhong said, this girl is smart and can learn quickly anything she teaches. She also knows how to be grateful. She is the one who sends firewood and grass the most on weekdays.

Moreover, when Chunhong almost died of illness, it was she who was beaten by her family and came to seek help!
Yang Lihua also likes such a girl who attaches great importance to love and justice, is smart and diligent, and even asks Yong Ning to take more care of her. If there is a chance in the future, she may be someone who can be used in the family.

Especially Chunhong's talent for needlework broke out. After she started learning, Erya was trained to be good at keeping accounts and managing money. Both sisters took care of Zhuzhu.Whether it is taking care of Zhuzhu's daily life and dowry, or marrying into a wealthy family, she is a good person and a good helper.

But she had a good plan, but this idiot Sun Meihua made a lot of trouble!
At this time, there was a sudden noise outside the gate, with people banging on the door frantically and crying loudly.

Chunhong listened carefully, with sharp ears, and immediately shouted, "Mother, it's Erya who's crying!"

Instead of rushing out, she knelt down again.

Yang Lihua pulled her away and said, "Let's go and have a look!"

The three of them threw down their needlework in the house and hurried to the front yard.

Tai Jizu had already opened the courtyard door. Erya's hair was disheveled and her eyes were red and swollen from crying. When she saw Chunhong coming out of the backyard, she ran directly into her arms and burst into tears.

"Sister, wuwu, mother is going to sell me! Not to be a slave, but to be a flower girl in a flower house!"

Hualou? !
Everyone had dark faces at that time and looked at Tai Jijin and his wife outside the door in disbelief!

Tiger poison does not eat children!
Even if the family really can't survive, selling the children into slavery is still an excuse.But as long as they have a conscience, they will try their best to choose a good home for their children.

How much do you hate your children to push them into a fire pit like Hualou!

Tai Jizu loved his children the most and didn't believe there could be such cruel parents. He asked Tai Jijin sternly, "Have you been kicked in the head by a donkey! Do you really want to sell your child? Erya is your biological child!"

Tai Jijin's hands were pulling at the corners of his black tattered clothes, with his head tilted, but he was speechless.

It was his daughter-in-law and grandson Meihua who stepped forward and spoke, "Um... Erya is lying. We are biological parents, how can we harm her! It's just that the life at home is really difficult, and they want to send her to a rich family as a maid, she Being able to have enough food and clothing is also a help to the family! She wanted to be lazy and didn't want to work in other people's homes, so she ran out and made a noise!"

As she spoke, she was about to go into the yard to talk to Erya'er.

Tai Jizu blocked the door and refused to let her in, so she raised her feet and shouted, "Erya, come here! Mom won't harm you. If you don't want to go to this house to enjoy the blessings, Mom will help you find another one!" She was thinking First, Erya is tricked out, and the child is in your hands. No one can stop her.

The world is big, but is it as big as her mother?

But two people following behind them refused to agree. A man with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks said, "What do you mean by changing one? Your family has taken our deposit of twenty taels of silver. If you dare to say anything, it will not count. We will not agree." !”

Sun Meihua'er was startled, and she quickly nodded and bowed in embarrassment. She then turned to look at Erya in the yard and cursed again.

"Damn girl, get out of here! If you dare to disobey me, see if I can beat you to death!"

At this moment, the nearby neighbors heard something was going on and came out to take a look.

Some smart people, seeing outsiders present, have already run to find Mr. Tai.

Just when Sun Meihua was about to rush into Tai's house, Mr. Tai arrived, followed by dozens of people, old and young, from various families.

Not only did Sun Meihua feel guilty and timid, but the expressions of the two foreign men also changed, and they cursed in their hearts that it was bad luck.

Tai Jizu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly went out and said, "Chief, my father took the children up the mountain and was not at home. Just now, Erya from Jijin's family suddenly came to ask for help, saying that her parents wanted to sell her to the flower house. She didn't want to. But Jijin and his wife brought people over again, saying that Erya was lying and just went to work as a maid in a wealthy family! I don't know what to do. Third uncle, please make the decision."

Master Tai understood what he heard, gave Tai Jijin and his wife a hard look, and then took the lead into the yard.

Liu Dongniang handed Erya to Yang Lihua for protection, and then took Chunhong to prepare tea.

Tai Jizu moved the tables and chairs under the eaves of the corridor. Third Master Tai Ma Jin Dao sat down and then looked at the two men.

"You are guests. No matter why you are here, you are all guests of our Tai family. Please sit down and have a cup of tea first."

The man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks was still talking, but another older companion pulled his sleeve and sat down together.

Sun Meihua was scared when she saw this posture, but thinking about her son and the two taels of silver at home, she really couldn't bear it.

She bravely stepped forward and said, "Chief, we are really not harming Erya'er. Things are not going well at home, so Erya goes out to enjoy the blessings. At least she can have enough food and clothing..."

Chunhong pushed Erya, and Erya rushed over crying and knelt at the feet of Mr. Tai San.

"Grandpa Third, help me, I don't want to leave our village, I don't want to be sold. My mother lied, she didn't want to send me to work in a wealthy family, she wanted to send me to a flower house!

"I just secretly heard from these two people that Hualou gives two taels of silver more than a wealthy family! Oh my, my mother doesn't care whether I live or die for just two taels of silver!

"Third Grandpa, I can work, and I don't have much to eat. I will weave cashmere mats with my aunt in the future, and I can support myself. Please don't let my parents sell me!"

Third Master Tai sighed, patted the little girl's head, then raised his hand to stop Sun Meihua who was still talking, and finally asked the two men, "Where are you from, but are you middle-aged? It's best to tell the truth, our Taijia Village is I am poor, but I still know a few people in the city. At least the stewards of the Min family and the officials of the county government have frequent contacts."
