Chapter 3
Zhou Banxia woke up completely, staring at the beams of the room with half a stick of incense, but still feeling a little confused.

She knows how to water.

It's just that the flood came too fast. I wanted to push Xuanzi to the surface of the water first because he was trying his best to protect her, but I didn't expect that the unruly man in the water would make a sneak attack again.

When she woke up again, she was possessed by this little girl who looked exactly like her. Even the memories were heavily integrated into her limbs and bones, and the ups and downs were vividly visible in her mind.

The little girl, also named Zhou, had two elder sisters and a younger brother when she was five years old. Her parents went to the city to find another doctor for her younger brother who was suffering from the cold. After that, she and her second elder sister were sold.

The second sister disappeared on the way, and when I arrived in Fucheng, it was time for Gaofu to purchase a maid.After entering the mansion, she was picked by Aunt Zhou to enter the sewing room, and half a year later she became her teacher in private.

When he was ten years old, he rescued the old lady on the Ghost Festival. The guardian Youen was transferred to the old lady's side. At the age of 12, he became the second-class maid in charge of the old lady's small study.

Grandma Zhou passed away the year before last, and the Gaofu family no longer had a master they cared about.It's a pity that the success is saving the old lady, but the failure is also here. The old lady still has no intention of letting her out of the house.

Fortunately, the little sister tipped off the news and the family was going to Beijing the following year. Over the past six months, she had dreamed many times that her second sister asked her to tell her to take good care of her parents and younger brother.

After painstaking planning and the help of little sisters, the old lady was convinced that she really dreamed, so she was merciful and let her go out of the house to reunite with her family without even asking for ransom money.

I am planning to settle down my family at the end of the month, and go back to Fucheng at the beginning of next month to buy a small village for "Mama Zhou" to provide for her in her old age, so that she can buy a man to be her husband and take charge of the family.

Unexpectedly, when she arrived at the river this afternoon, a wild dog suddenly rushed out and pounced on her. In panic, her foot slipped and fell into the river, and the breath of drowning was taken over her body.

Although it was not her intention, it was nothing to let a big sister who was twice as big as her take away the little girl's body.The cause and effect is too great, and I really can’t afford to shoulder this debt...

Without thinking much, someone was walking around outside the house, as if they were deliberately moving lightly for fear of disturbing others.Zhou Banxia turned around and found that it was the little girl's mother, Mrs. Li, who was gently lifting the door curtain and coming in.

The originally loud whistling voice could no longer be heard since she woke up, leaving only the same soft voice as at this moment, repeating words such as God's blessing.

As soon as he saw her, his eyes turned red. Fortunately, he didn't wipe away the tears this time, but he still kept tucking her in. Zhou Banxia almost went crazy from the torment.

She is not a little girl. A mother who can't even protect her daughter is worse than her mother who gave birth to five sisters and two brothers with a big belly all her life.

Li came to discuss marriage with her.

Previously, the Zhou family had originally chosen two families, the second son of a family in the same town, and the eldest grandson of a landlord's family. She was waiting for her to decide which family to hire in the past two days.

It's hard to make a choice now.

When the young man who rescued her saw her sinking to the bottom of the river, he ignored the precautions of men and women and rescued her.There were a lot of people there at that time, and some of them were gossiping.

Li's words were cryptic, but Zhou Banxia understood it clearly.

Although the doctor said that she didn't have any fractures, but that the cold invaded her lungs and she was crushed and that she would have to recover for a while, but judging from the fact that her ribs were aching slightly now that she was lying on the kang and taking a breath.

There must have been physical contact when she was being treated by the powerful young man. This situation is normal in modern times. In ancient times when men and women were not seated at the same table at the age of seven, it was a major matter that damaged the reputation.

Bullshit!

"...Mom doesn't want you to get married early." Li said, "You have been away since you were five years old, and it took ten years for you to come back, and you have to go to someone else's house.

But this time, even if those two families said they didn't mind, we couldn't believe it.Besides, you are almost seventeen and you are a big girl. If you are later, it will be even harder to find someone. "

clear.

A so-called good family will not want a girl with a bad reputation when looking for a daughter-in-law, even if she has no substantial contact with the person who saved her.

What’s even weirder is!
This country of Daliang, which did not exist at all in history, also had a cheating law, which stipulated that if a woman was unmarried after reaching the age of 16, she would have to pay double the head tax.If you are not married yet, no matter how much you pay in taxes, the government will force the marriage.Pretending to be dead and absconding?When traveling far away, you need identity badges and road guides.

Without these two things, once caught, you will be a gangster.Their status is equivalent to that of slaves, and they will be directly beaten into official slaves by the government and sent to be sold or exiled to military camps.

Even female households were established.

The law also stipulates that a woman must leave her natal family or her husband is dead before she can leave independently. Otherwise, she will be considered a violation of the law and will be imprisoned.

Xiao Banxia was frightened by these laws. She was thinking of getting rid of her slave status and leaving the house, and she also wanted to buy a husband who was easy to control and take charge of the family.

poor child.

Such a terrible ancient time!

No human rights were granted at all, and there was not even toilet paper. Zhou Banxia had never been so aggrieved.Let her get married, or just die, that's it.

"... Even if I recruit you a son-in-law, those talkative women may still tell you how to arrange it. They say that you used to be a maid and were screwed by the master. Otherwise, why don't you find a good family to marry?"

Can't live anymore!

"Fourth child, open the door quickly, parents are here! Fourth child——"

"Damn it!" Mrs. Li's expression changed, and she jumped up from the edge of the kang in fright, "Why did this bunch of bad guys come at this hour? Your father is not at home -"

Zhou Banxia was shocked, "Why are you panicking! I came just in time, I was planning to settle accounts with them tomorrow morning. Let them come in, I want to see what they want to do!"

Li was stunned for a moment, "Sanya?"

"Let them come in. I have remembered everything that happened back then. Go open the door first and don't let them escape." Zhou Banxia waved her hand to refuse Li's wish to help her get off the kang.

"Third Sister—" Six-year-old Xiaohe quickly ran into the west room on his short legs with a panicked look on his face, "There are many people coming to the old home. Big brother tells you to hide quickly."

"Don't be afraid, they can't beat me." Zhou Banxia touched the little guy's head comfortingly, whispered a few words, and continued to take out the things from the cage and scatter them on the ground.

"...You are a disobedient and unfilial prank. I want to look at your face when I go to my son's house! You rotten hooves, you bitch, what are you guys doing in the boss's house standing still!"

As soon as Zhou Banxia came out, he saw five or six people, men, women, old and young, standing in the main room. Among them, the old woman who was pinching her waist and shouting was the dead old woman who sold two or three ya.

very good!

Well done!
Seeing a strong woman lunging towards Mrs. Li with her teeth and claws bared, Zhou Banxia kicked her away, pulled the boss Zhou who was blocking Zhou Yujiang, and threw her over her shoulder.

"what!"

"Daddy!"

"Bitch girl, I will fight with you——"

Zhou Banxia kicked off and stood in front of 12-year-old Zhou Yujiang, thinking that he could not let the little girl, the eldest brother, bear the name of unfilial piety and punch him.

Come and beat up two, come and beat three, in one breath, no matter old or young, they all will be given a beating.Listening to the wailing on the ground, I felt much more comfortable.

"Fight, you guys fight the other way around. Come on, you idiots, let's have another fight. Don't you want to take advantage of my aunt's fall into the water and her half-life to grab something?"
