The Little Dumb Wife of the Mountain People

Chapter 141 Poor people are not as good as pigs and dogs

On June 22, after two consecutive days of cloudy and rainy days, nearly 50 horse-drawn carriages drove out from Nanning County. In addition to nearly a hundred girls, there were also their belongings and sponsorship from the Wu and Yao families on the carriage.

Song Dalang has been out for nearly half a month, and he has long since returned to his heart, but this time he was entrusted with an important task by Master Liu, and he is the leader of this group.

The carriage departed from the county early in the morning. Yesterday, a lot of dry food was made, and there were so many people, it was not suitable to stay in the town for lunch. Song Dalang was only going to rest in the town for a quarter of an hour at noon.

Liu Mengyao was sitting in one of these carriages, and Aunt Wen Bao's niece Yao Lin was with her. When they arrived in town, Chen Ying, Wen Chen's niece, would join them.

"Sister Mengyao, do you really want to study medicine?"

Yao Lin is also the daughter of a merchant. Naturally, it is impossible to hide the big move of the Wu family from the Yao family. In order to show their sincerity, the Yao family not only donated rice and grain to the female school, but also brought the eldest daughter of the family together. send it.

Liu Mengyao looked at Yao Lin and nodded. If she hadn't been over six years old, she would have learned everything she wanted.

Yao Lin originally planned to learn to settle accounts. After all, Yao's family is a merchant, but after her aunt dragged her to talk to her father for two hours yesterday, she was a little shaken.

"Sister Yao Lin, in fact, you are just six years old this year, why don't you learn everything?"

"Sister, I'm seven years old."

Yao Lin made an excuse in a small voice, and Liu Mengyao shook her head lightly, "I know your birthday is young, but you were actually only six years old on your birthday in the twelfth lunar month of last year."

Yao Lin didn't know what to do with Liu Mengyao's words. She naturally understood what grandpa and dad meant. The Wu family wanted to change their families, and the Yao family also needed it. Her brother would be sent to the Wen family's academy to study next year.

Seeing that Yao Lin was silent, Liu Mengyao stopped talking, and instead closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Yao Lin watched Liu Mengyao close her eyes, and stretched out her head to take a peek at the carriage in front of her. Her cousin was in the carriage in front of her. She was still hugging her this morning, and told her how good that aunt of the Wen family in Songjia Village would do. food.

I don't know if she can learn to cook delicious food from her. My mother is not in good health after giving birth to her younger brother. She also wants to see a doctor for her mother after studying medicine.

The horse team arrived in the town before noon, and Wen Chengyong had already accompanied his uncle and led Chen Ying to wait on the side of the road.

"Brother-in-law, cousin."

Wen Chengyong called out, and Song Dalang and Wu Houye walked towards Wen Chengyong. After a few people talked, the horse team naturally stopped to eat dry food and rest.

"Ying'er, when you arrive in Songjia Village, you need to listen to your Aunt Wen, do you understand?"

Chen Ying had already set her eyes on Song Dalang's back. She had been happy for half a month when she learned that she could go to Songjia Village Girls' School.

Seeing that his niece was so excited, Wen Chengyong pulled Song Dalang and gave him some instructions.

"Da Lang, Ying'er has a temperament like her aunt, you and Bao'er need to worry more."

Naturally, Song Dalang would not refuse his brother-in-law's entrustment, not to mention that the Chen family still has a wine shop and a house in Songjia Village. Chen Ying's going to Songjia Village is like going home.

After Wen Chengyong delivered two bamboo baskets of roast chicken, Song Dalang arranged for Wu Yong to distribute it, one for the girls and one for the adult guards, before Song Dalang sent Chen Ying to Liu Mengyao's carriage.

"Daddy, Tuantuan is going too!"

Tuantuan spent the whole morning in the carriage, and now she saw that sister Ying, who was playing a few days ago, went to the carriage behind and immediately became unhappy.

"Okay, you go and listen to your sisters obediently."

When Tuantuan went to Liu Mengyao's carriage, the team continued to move forward. Chen Ying and Liu Mengyao had met a few years ago, and they were related by marriage, so they naturally became acquainted very quickly.

Yao Lin is also a relative, and the little girls got to know each other very quickly, and Tuantuan was the youngest. The three elder sisters let her go, and she quickly gained everyone's favor.

In Songjia Village, after Wen Bao learned that Song Dalang and the others were coming back today, he started making arrangements the day before yesterday.

The women's school hired a few women who cook and carry water, and started preparing dinner early this morning. In Wen Bao's words, they are all children who left home. Today, they must know that they feel the warmth of home.

Swallow, along with Song Jiao and Song Xiangtang, also waited at the gate of the girls' school early. As a native of Songjia Village, during the past half month, by going through the back door, a dozen people were pre-arranged for admission.

Of the dozen or so girls enrolled in Songjia Village this time, only three of them chose to study medicine. If they weren't of the wrong age, they would naturally want to learn anything.

"Aunt Yan, why aren't they here yet?"

Yanzi's juniors are older, although Wen Bao has told them that there will be no seniority after school starts, but Yanzi still becomes the little leader because she knows Wen Bao best.

"Sister-in-law said they won't arrive until evening."

Yanzi is very happy about being able to study. A few days ago, she finally made two sets of school uniforms under the guidance of sister Meihua.

The skirt with embroidered patterns and ribbons has been her favorite dress for so many years.

As the sun gradually set, the convoy finally appeared in sight, and Yanzi and others who were the first to spot the convoy immediately rushed to notify everyone.

Wen Bao led Mei Hua and a group of female students came out of the female school one after another, looking at the approaching convoy.

After seeing the familiar scenery on both sides, Tuan Tuan stuck out his head from the carriage, saw Mother from a distance, she immediately cheered and called out: "Mother, Tuantuan is back!"

The girls in the carriage stretched their heads to look at Tuantuan's voice, and they all knew that the chubby little sister who smiled cutely was the daughter of their female principal.

Wen Bao hadn't seen his daughter for many days, and hearing Tuantuan's voice already made his eyes turn red, and so did Meihua. Zhang Lian supported her waist and said, "Don't cry, it's embarrassing for the students to see."

Glancing at Zhang Lian who had already entered the state of being a gentleman, Wen Bao wiped away his tears with a handkerchief, and the first carriage also arrived in front of him.

"mother!"

As soon as the first carriage stopped, Tuantuan wanted to jump down from the carriage behind, frightening the three sisters in the carriage. When Song Dalang and Wu Houye got off the carriage, the girls in the carriage behind also got out of the carriage one after another.

Tuantuan ran in front, and the three girls behind were also chasing quickly, Wen Bao smiled and told them to slow down, and only when Tuantuan ran to the front, did he hug Tuantuan up.

"It's been so long since the smelly girl and grandma went to town."

"Hey, mother, Tuantuan misses you so much."

Tuantuan smiled and hugged Wen Baoqin, kissed mother, aunt, first aunt, third aunt, and finally stretched his neck to kiss Aunt Lian.

"Meet Aunt Wen."

Liu Mengyao and Chen Ying were the first to salute Wen Bao and the others. Although Yao Lin was also related to Wen Bao, she was not familiar with him after all.

In the end, the little girl called 'Aunt Wen' in a pretty way before she raised her head to look at the others.

During the moment when Tuantuan was acting like a baby, all the girls in the carriage got out of the carriage. There were nearly a hundred girls, so Wen Bao and the others couldn't help but focus on them.

Some of these girls are as young as four or five years old, some are more than ten years old, and no one is more than 12 years old. Also, those who are one or two years older have been married long ago.

"Daughter-in-law, the roster is here."

Before Song Dalang left, Wen Bao asked him to count the roster of the girls. Now that he was holding the roster, Wen Bao glanced at it, then took two steps forward, beckoning the girls to come closer.

The girls have experienced being cruelly sold by their relatives, and watched the outstanding sisters being picked out and bought all the way. Now for nearly a year, they have grown taller and gained a lot of weight. Maybe they will never be as depressed as they were last year. , but in their bones, they still choose to be afraid and shrink back from the unfamiliar environment.

Seeing the girls' reactions, the escorts were a little embarrassed, but Wen Bao understood their worries.

Walking into the crowd, she picked up the girl closest to her. She looked a bit like her own, chubby and cute.

"I know what you're worried about."

Wen Bao walked into the group of them, and after saying a word, the crowd became restless for a while and then returned to calm.

"Master Liu came forward, and all parties in the county planned to build this women's school. It was my proposal, and you must be wondering why I did this.

In fact, the reason is very simple, I am a woman, I have a lovely daughter, I do not want you to be reduced, because I believe that women are not born worse than men!
We may not have the strength of a man, but we have our hands and our brains. We don't need to blame ourselves for why we have fallen into such a situation.

So what if the family abandoned it!So what if the world disdains it!We are based on the world, I believe that as long as you continue to improve yourself, there will naturally be a place for our women in this world! "

The more Wen Bao said this, the more excited he became. The girls were fine at first, but when it came to being abandoned by their families, many girls burst into tears.

This is the biggest pain in their hearts. When faced with choices, these women who only eat but don't contribute much to their families are the first group of people to be abandoned.

Seeing the emotional changes of the girls, Wen Bao smiled again and said, "Of course, I won't teach you to hate your family members. There are all kinds of things in the world, and you will fall into the current situation. In fact, it is because you didn't stand on your feet. The world's ability.

Women's school is the place to teach you skills. After staying in women's school for a few years, you have the skills, you can rely on your own hands and brains instead of relying on others, and tell the sky aboveboard that you are worthy of standing on the ground. Heaven and Earth is your ultimate goal! "

After Wen Bao said this, nearly a hundred people stopped crying. Some of them clenched their fists, some squeezed their hands, and some looked up at Wen Bao.

Looking at a group of children who had regained their self-confidence, Wen Bao smiled slightly. It was pitiful for the relatives who sold them, but in her opinion, there must be something to hate about poor people.

Last year, the Hu family was also in a difficult situation, but they did not sell their land or children. Now, although they still owe money to her family, the family has worked very hard, but they are together as a family, very happy, very happy.

Wen Bao didn't know how desperate these girls were when they were sold by their families, but she knew that she would never have such a day.

Her descendants will never allow such a day!
When a family is reduced to the point where it needs to sell their daughters in exchange for what they need, even if this family is a thousand-year-old family, in her opinion, it is inferior to a pig and a dog!
