Farming Space: The Lucky and Lovely Lady Come to Farm
Chapter 74: Sold to you as your wife
There was no water and we couldn't cook. Every household didn't have much water left, so they only dared to take a small sip. The village chief's family also gave the mule some water, but in other households, the mule could only be thirsty.
The children didn't know anything about it, they were playing hide and seek around the carriage.
Juhua and Mr. Zhang's daughter Xiang'er were sitting on the loess wall turning over flower ropes. Juhua suddenly shouted, "Someone is coming."
Gu Fei looked over and saw a woman with a dusty face standing outside half of the loess wall, pulling a 30-year-old boy, and a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old stood next to her.
Seeing everyone looking at her, the woman smiled awkwardly: "We are fleeing from famine. Can you brothers and sisters-in-law let us ladies rest here for a few nights?"
Everyone was silent and looked at Gu Zhang.
Gu Zhang thought for a while, there was nothing to be afraid of with two women and one child. Besides, this place didn't belong to them. He nodded: "Okay."
The woman thanked her and pulled the child in from the side.
It was getting dark at this time, and Uncle Ma shouted, "Raise the fire."
Gu Sanlang lit some dead leaves with a fire stick, and added dry branches to it, and the fire quickly started burning.
Everyone sat around the fire.
The mother and son were sitting by the wall and didn't come over.
It was also dinner time at this time, and every household brought out dry food to eat.
Gu Fei was nibbling on the pancake when she suddenly heard the voice of the boy on the wall behind her, "Mom, I'm so hungry."
The woman lowered her head and remained silent.
The child said again: "Mom, I want to eat steamed buns."
The woman was silent for a long time, then suddenly made up her mind. She took the two children to the fire, knelt down with a plop, and said, "Brothers and sisters-in-law, can you please do a good thing and give us some food? It's true, yesterday I just ate some grass roots, but I didn’t catch anything all day long.”
"Thank you all for your kind brothers and sisters." The woman pulled the two children and kowtowed desperately.
Everyone who was eating dry food suddenly fell silent, and no one made a sound.
Gu Fei couldn't bear to see it, but she also understood that there were many people like this along the way, and she couldn't save them, and she couldn't save them.
She lowered her eyes and ate the pancake silently.
The woman and the two children kowtowed for more than a dozen times. The village chief couldn't help but sigh, "Stop kowtowing. Save the strength you have for walking."
"We are also fleeing famine. How can we have extra food for others?"
The woman raised her dusty face and suddenly saw the white flour pancake in Gu Sanlang's hand. She rushed towards him and knelt down in front of him, "This little brother, my Lian'er will be your wife. All you need is a bag of pancakes." Just whole grains.”
Gu Sanlang's face turned dark. Who wants a dirty girl to be his wife?
He waved his hand impatiently, "Let's go, let's go, I don't want a wife!"
Mr. Zhang next to him laughed loudly, "Sanlang, this girl is tall and her eyebrows are pretty good. She should be able to wash herself well. You can make a profit in exchange for a bag of coarse grains and a wife!"
Gu Sanlang was annoyed, "Uncle Zhang, your Donglai is now ten years old, so it's just right to buy it back as a child bride."
Everyone laughed.
Gu Fei looked at the mother and son and felt unspeakably sad.
At this time, Mr. Qian suddenly said, "You are from Xishan County, right? You girl is so skinny, and you still want a bag of grain? I heard someone said yesterday that you can buy a girl in Xishan County with a bushel of grain now." ”
