The wicked girl

Chapter 17 The Swallow Was Sold
The two said a few more things about the future, and then went back to Ding's house along the way.

As soon as he entered the door, he heard Mrs. Mei sighing with Chunlan: "Poor Yanzi, I heard that the woman bought someone to sell to the north to be a maid for others... The world will be different in the future. I can't."

Ye Kui froze at the door when she heard that.

She knows Yan Ziniang's temperament, but she never thought that she would do the trick of betraying her daughter!Who knows what will happen if it is sold to the Northland?No, the swallow cannot be sold!
She turned around and ran outside.

A semi-old green cloth carriage is parked under a peach tree by the Peach Blossom River.She stared and ran, but her heart was empty and hopeless.Her footsteps slowed down a little bit, and a look of grief and despair gradually appeared on her little face.

She knew that there was nothing she could do...

When they caught up, the carriage was about to leave.

Ye Kui stopped in front of the horse with a small body: "I just want to say a few words to the people in the car!"

The driver with wicked eyebrows and mouse eyes spat, rolled his eyes and told her to get out of here quickly.Just at this time, afraid that Ren Yazi would have evil intentions, Mei took her away together, lost her work and chased after her, and hurriedly went to pull Yekui.

The curtain was raised, and a wrinkled face with heavy make-up protruded from the carriage. A pair of triangular eyes sized Ye Kui first, and then said to Mei with a smile: "This little lady is so disobedient. How about selling it together with me and taking it to a rich family to be a girl. It looks good on the surface, so how about giving you five taels of silver?"

Mei's face stiffened.

"Hey, that's right!" Suddenly, Mrs. Ding He, who got out of nowhere, pushed Mrs. Mei aside and squeezed in front of the carriage, shouting loudly, "I mean old sister! You are so right, I just said I heard that you came back from the field in a hurry." Ding He slobbered, and suddenly pulled Ye Kui from behind Mei to the front, "Look, look, this Is your little face tender?"

The woman in the carriage looked Ye Kui from head to toe as if looking at an animal, with a satisfied look on her face, but she said: "Tender is tender, but it can be at most six taels, no more can be added!"

Mei pulled Ye Kui back again and said, "We don't sell girls."

"Not for sale?" The old man's face trembled, and the white powder fell down. In a blink of an eye, the old woman got into the carriage again, and said impatiently: "Walk, walk, it's a waste of my saliva."

Ding He hurriedly grabbed the rein, "Hey, hey, I'll sell it! I'll sell it!"

"Hey, let me say, what are you guys thinking? Are you selling this or not? If you don't sell this, many people want to go, and it's just a joke when I'm an old woman? You are arguing here." The old lady opened the curtain and rolled her eyes.

Mrs. Mei quietly squeezed Ye Kui's arm, signaling her to go home quickly.

But this time, Ye Kui was tight-lipped, and regardless of Mei's desperate attempt to block her, she walked out from behind Mei, still looking at the woman in the carriage and saying, "I want to tell Yanzi a few words."

The woman's expression darkened when she heard this, "Tch, go away, don't block my way!"

"Little leaf! Little leaf—"

Suddenly, a head with a bun poked out from the small window of the carriage.

Ye Kui was overjoyed, and hurriedly ran in that direction, shouting as she ran: "Swallow, swallow..." But apart from the name, she didn't know what else to say.She has no way to prevent Yanzi from going with the old woman, she even has no way to protect herself.There are so many powerless things in this world.

"Little Yezi, don't worry about me. I'll be back in a few years. When I come back with money, I'll buy you food and your favorite sweet-scented osmanthus. Don't worry—" the last "heart" The word stretched so long that the horse's hooves clattered away.

Yekui could no longer see Yanzi's face clearly...

After spending so much effort, she didn't say a word in the end, but was comforted instead.

When the nose is sore, the eye sockets are red.Why do you want to cry like this?It's been a long time since I cried, right?She even once wondered if there was something wrong with her lacrimal gland.Every time I wanted to cry loudly in my heart, but her eyes were always dry without a drop of tears.Even when she encountered such a thing at the beginning, she did not shed tears.

But at this moment, the tears seemed to be unstoppable.

I don't know whether I was crying for Yanzi, or...for myself.

This time, no one knows if there will be a chance to meet.Yanzi is really just a child, innocent and fearless.But she is not anymore, so she is afraid, terribly afraid.This departure, in her opinion, was a farewell.

Seeing her crying sadly on the ground, Mrs. Mei went up to help her, and comforted her: "Don't cry, Yanzi is right, she will come back in a few years. Besides, you still have Chunlan, Chunxi, There are so many Xiaojiu and Xiaoshu, they will be fine in a few days."

Having said that, Ke Kui knew the difference.

No one in this world will treat her like a swallow again.Enduring the pain after being beaten, he showed her a bright smile, holding the candy that he couldn't bear to eat, just for her to eat.Holding it tightly, the sugar melted a little, but Ye Kui felt that it was the best sugar she had ever eaten in her life.

But all this will be gone forever.

Reaching out her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, she stood up with Mei's hand.When the tears are over, everything will go back to how it was before.

As soon as he turned around, he saw the menacing Ding He with one hand on his waist, pointing at them with the other and cursing: "I don't know, I'm afraid people really think you two are real mothers and daughters! Six taels of silver! I'm so mad!"

Mei frowned, retorting: "Mother, what are you talking about? Our family is poor, are we going to starve to death tomorrow? Then old lady, you don't know the basics, how can you say that you want to sell Xiao Yezi?" gone?"

"I'm going to fuck you, eat me and use mine to live in me, but you're still slapping your nose! If it weren't for the fact that you gave birth to a grandson, I would have asked Da Lang to divorce you long ago! Look at your own arrogance, my old Ding's family really can't afford your big Buddha!" ​​Ding He jumped angrily, ignoring the traffic on the road, pointing at Mei's nose and yelling non-stop.

When the passing villagers saw their appearance, they began to whisper to each other.How could Mrs. Mei bear such pointing and pointing, but she couldn't bear to point at her mother-in-law's face and scold back in front of everyone, so she had to pull Ye Kui home with a sullen face without saying a word.
