Crowned with Pearls

  As soon as the chat box was opened, people from Wujiabao began to chime in one after another.

   "We also know that those sea bandits are hateful, but what can we do?"

   "Come every year, and take away many women and children every year"

  Ms. Qin didn't like it when she heard it: "You know that women and children are all taken away, so if they come back with a narrow escape, they should give others a way to survive? Why bother to kill them all?"

  This topic seems to be a taboo, and when it comes to this, Mr. Wu's face immediately sank again.

The third master of the Wu family is able to bend and stretch. Hearing this, he sighed: "Concubine Grandson, Madam Qin, we also know that you may not understand. But this is the rule of the clan. Let me tell you this, this is the rule of our clan for so many years. The established old rules, no one has ever dared to change the rules left by the ancestors, today you either kill us, or don't meddle in the affairs of those girls!"

  Everyone in the Wu family castle responded one after another, as if they were convinced by the words of the third master of the Wu family.

  Su Yao glanced at them, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there a place for us to live today?"

  She changed the topic all of a sudden, and everyone couldn't react.

  Especially Mr. Wu, he originally thought that Su Yao would definitely force Wu Jiabao to give a reply this time, but he didn't expect Su Yao to not dwell on this topic, so he was a little surprised.

  But since Concubine Taisun can take the initiative to avoid this matter, it is naturally better.

  The people in Wujiabao are not crazy, they have to fight against their superiors to be happy.

  Mr. Wu’s sleeves were secretly pulled by the third master of the Wu family, and a smile appeared on his old face: "Concubine Tai Sun is here, this is a blessing for our Wu family castle, please, please!"

  Wujiabao also received feudal princes in the past, so there is a rule to follow when receiving concubines. They quickly cleaned up the place and invited Su Yao to stay there.

  Although he stayed here, it still made people hold his breath.

  Mrs. Qin came over very uneasy and invited Su to sin: "I really didn't expect them to be so stubborn, and they didn't even give you face."

At first, I thought that it was Concubine Grandson who came here in person, no matter how unreasonable the people in Wujiabao were, they should give Concubine Grandson a face, but I didn't expect that they were as smelly and hard as the stones in the latrine He even said that he would either kill all the clansmen in Wujiabao, or kill those girls.

Su Yao was calm. Seeing that Madam Qin was very angry, she smiled: "Madam, you don't have to be so angry. I don't think the attitude of those clan elders in Wujiabao seems to be aimed at us, that is to say, this is really theirs. rules."

   It can be seen from the behavior of Mr. Wu and the others just now, what they are unhappy about is that they are afraid that Su will invite them to stop this matter.

  At first, Su Yao thought that this was a deliberate confrontation by the Wujiabao people, but now it seems that this is really the Wujiabao people's rules.

  They really felt that the girl who was taken away by the pirates died and should not come back.

   Anger is naturally angry. The lives of those girls should not be treated like this, but some things cannot be resolved by anger.

  Madam Qin was a little discouraged: "Then what should we do? We can't really kill those people, can we?"

  There are so many people in Wujiabao!

   Is it really necessary to kill them all?

  Su Yao's eyes fell on the palace lantern in the room, and he lowered his eyes lightly: "Just wait and see."

   It is said to wait and see what happens, but it is naturally impossible for Su Yao to do nothing.

  Mother Shen and Jinping came back soon.

  Seeing Su Yao, Shen's mother sat down and said softly: "Girl, we just went out for a walk and asked why."

  Su Yao motioned to her and said.

"I heard." Shen's mother coughed, cleared her throat, and told Su Yao the story: "I heard that when Mr. Wu was young, their branch was not the head of the Wu family. The head of the family was his uncle. Later, the sea bandits raided Wujiabao and took away many women, including the wife of the head of the Wu family at that time."

   Mrs. Qin stopped listening.

   She has never heard of these things.

  It is difficult for people living in temples to hear the voices below. Sometimes they are like bodhisattvas in temples, and what they can hear is what others want them to hear.

Shen's mother continued: "Fortunately, the people in Wujiabao respect the patriarch very much. Someone protected the patriarch's wife to death, and the patriarch's wife escaped from the pirates after all kinds of hardships. At that time, the Wu family Not long after the patriarch's wife fled back, she became pregnant and gave birth to a son."

   Mrs. Qin listened more and more attentively, and looked at Shen's mother with wide eyes: "Then what happened next?"

  The first time I heard this, I knew that there were many stories. I am afraid that the rules of burning the escaped women later evolved from this incident. Otherwise, why did everyone in Wujiabao agree to burn those girls to death?

Sure enough, Shen's mother lowered her voice a lot: "At first, no one said anything, that child has grown up well, and has a very good relationship with Mr. Wu, but it was only when the child was fifteen years old that he suddenly had A large number of pirates invaded Wujiabao. Unlike before, because of the high walls of Wujiabao, the pirates would rob the surrounding area and then run away. But this time, the pirates broke into the city. Those who didn’t run fast enough were all killed by them, and they almost reached the ancestral house of Wujiabao.”

  Su invites all thoughts: "Should it be related to that child?"

  Madam Qin also thinks so.

Mother Shen sighed: "Yes, I found out later that the patriarch's wife was spoiled by the pirate leader after she was taken away. That child is not the patriarch's child, let alone from Wujiabao, but actually belonged to the pirates. kind."

  The pirate leader found out the identity of the patriarch's wife from nowhere, and secretly sent many people to sneak into Wujiabao. Those who came and went did not know how to hook up with the child, and told the child about the child's life experience.

  That child is naturally afraid of his identity being exposed, so he can only be controlled by others and become an internal response.

   It was because of this incident that the Wu Family Fort was almost wiped out.

  Since then, Wujiabao has never accepted the women who escaped.

  They would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go.

  The previous lessons were so painful that they never dared to repeat the same mistakes.

  Mrs. Qin took a long breath. She also knew that there should be a reason for the matter, but she didn't expect it to be like this.

  Thinking about it this way, I can also understand why the people in Wujiabao reacted so strongly.
