Qingben beauty

Chapter 3

The man and my father from the same village took a truck and rode for a few days and nights to the place called Pengcheng, but neither of them had any education, so they could only work as simple brick movers on the construction site.

Two months ago, my father was moving bricks on the construction site. Because the scaffolding suddenly collapsed, he fell from it and died.

Grandma howled at that time, grabbed the man, and said that the man took father out, and now that father is dead, he must be held responsible.

The man came out with a backpack and said that he came back two months late to find an explanation for his father. Because it happened on the construction site, the other party finally paid [-] yuan in compensation.

Thirty thousand...

For the people of Tiantou Village at that time, it was a huge sum of money!
The grandma immediately beamed with joy, and she didn't even take the ashes of her father, only took the bag of money, and then thanked the villager repeatedly.

The man sighed and shook his head, put father's urn on the table, glanced at me, then turned and left.

As soon as the man left, the stepmother quarreled with the grandma, saying that the money should go to her, and that if it didn't go to her, she would take her son away!
Grandma drove me out and dragged my stepmother into the back room.

That night, I huddled in the woodshed, watching the lights in the old house come on in the middle of the night, and I also silently shed tears in the middle of the night.

There was no sound of crying, but just crying like that, even if I told myself not to cry, I couldn't stop the tears.

Dad is dead...

The two sentences on the remittance slip that sent the money back are always one sentence I am fine, and one sentence Is the girl okay?dad died...

I got up before dawn the next day, made breakfast, fed the pigs, chickens and ducks, and cleaned the yard.

I know that my father is dead, let alone studying, if I don't do more things and show that I am still useful, then my grandparents and stepmother will definitely not keep me.

But I'm still naive.

When the sky was bright, the door opened, and the stepmother came out with a smile, raised her eyebrows and looked at me, grabbed a handful of melon seeds, leaned against the threshold and knocked, while throwing the melon seed shells on the ground I had just cleaned.

I lowered my head, not looking at the smug look on her face, and took the broom to sweep the floor over and over again.

"Niu, I will take you to buy new clothes." My grandfather came out of the house, glared at my stepmother, and said to me in a pleasant manner.

I was a little surprised. Ever since I could remember, my grandpa and grandma never gave me a good face. After my dad left, all my clothes were worn out by my grandma and stepmother. I, new clothes, I dare not even think about.

Is it because his father died, so he remembered that I am also his granddaughter?
At that time, my eyes were red, but I didn't dare to cry. I was afraid that I would make my father angry after crying, so I quickly put down the broom and ran to him obediently.

"Look at this virtue, you can pretend!" The stepmother snorted disdainfully, threw all the melon seeds in her hand on the ground, and said loudly: "It's boring to look at, you even killed your father. From now on, you will be happy!" Go beat someone else's!"

Grandpa turned his head and glared at the stepmother, then grabbed my hand and dragged me outside.

When I got to the gate of the fence, I looked back towards the old house.

Grandma also came out and stood beside the stepmother, both of them had strange smiles on their faces.

I was a little uneasy, but I didn't dare to ask my grandfather's face, so I could only stumble along with him.

When I was seven years old, I ran all over the mountains next to the village, but I never left the village.

That day, I got on a tractor, and my grandfather took me out of the village. After walking for more than three hours, I arrived at another village.

The mountain in that village is not as big as ours, and there is a cement road passing outside the village, and the houses in the village are more beautiful and newer than ours.

At the entrance of the village, there is a grocery store of more than ten square meters.

Grandpa took me off the tractor, led me into the grocery store, and shouted to the inside: "Is Lao Ge there?"

"Yes, yes!" A man in his 40s reeking of alcohol leaned out from inside, glanced at Grandpa, then stopped his gaze on me, and asked, "Who are you?"

"Old Ge, I'm Guo Ni's father-in-law." The grandfather said with a smile, "It's the daughter of the Guo family in the next village. She's married to my eldest son."

"Oh." Lao Ge looked me up and down, and said indifferently, "What's the matter with you?"

"My daughter-in-law said, you want to find a child bride-in-law, do you think she will do it?" Master said while pushing me forward.

Fear welled up in my heart, and I subconsciously wanted to hide behind, but Grandpa blocked me firmly, and even pinched me hard on the back.

Lao Ge laughed, looked at me more unscrupulously, and said: "This child is so thin, my family doesn't need someone who can't work."

"Don't look at her as thin, she may be able to do anything, she can do anything! It's easy to raise, you just need to take care of her one meal." Grandpa said with a smile: "I'm 11 years old now, and in a few years she will be You can have a baby!"

11 years old?
Although I haven't read a book, I still know that I only live for seven years, seven years old!

Lord, what do you want to do!

My heart tightened, my body trembled unconsciously, and I turned my head to look at Grandpa.

"11 years old?" Lao Ge laughed twice, shook his head and said, "Forget it, this girl looks good, but I can only give you 1000 yuan."

The master's face darkened, and he said, "Isn't that right, Lao Ge, my family Guo Nicole said, you just let the wind say 2000 yuan!"

"Then your girl is really 11 years old?" Lao Ge's face also sank.

"Yes!" Grandpa said loudly: "Besides, you don't care how old she is. You have been talking about it for three months. Who doesn't know that stupid son in your family? Is there any family that will give you a baby girl, that is, my family?" Guo Ni, it looks like you are all from the next village, I have pity on you! It’s only two thousand, or I’ll take them away!”

As the master said, he pulled me to prepare to leave.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly turned around and wanted to run to the tractor.

"Okay, two thousand is two thousand, people stay." Lao Ge shouted from behind.

My heart sank, and before I had any other thoughts, my master pushed me to Lao Ge who came out of the door, and said with a smile: "That's right, don't worry, we don't lie, and you will know this when the time comes." The benefits of a girl."

"Okay!" Lao Ge grabbed me tightly, took a stack of banknotes and handed it to the grandfather, saying: "This baby will belong to my family from now on, you can go."

"Grandpa! Grandpa!" I couldn't help but yelled out: "Grandpa! I can do anything, I just eat one meal, I can take care of my brother, I can take care of grandma and you, please, don't Sell ​​me! Please! Don't sell me!"

Grandpa scoffed, licked his fingers in his mouth, quickly counted the stack of banknotes, and said to me: "Girl, you know, your father is dead, our family is poor, we can't afford you, you Mom is also right, sending you here can be regarded as finding a way for you to survive, Lao Ge’s family is much richer than ours, and I’m afraid that you won’t be able to drink spicy food in the future, and you will enjoy some of it!”

After finishing speaking, Grandpa put the banknotes in his pocket, hummed a little tune, and walked towards the tractor.

I stood there in a daze, watching his back go away, watching him get on the tractor, watching the tractor chug away.

My mind was blank, nothing.

Only the words that Dad said when he left echoed in his mind.

"You're an interesting girl." Lao Ge grabbed my arm tightly, dragged me to the village, and said with a smile, "You don't cry or make trouble. You have a good temper. Let's go and come home with me."

When I was seven years old, I was sold to Huangguan Village, where I became a child bride-in-law for a fool who broke his brain the year before last and knew about it ten miles away.
