Chapter 32, Beginning of Awakening
"if not?"
Wang Gang kicked Wang Cuihua angrily.
Just because I bought her five years ago, I have lost so much money now.
It's so embarrassing to go door to door asking for help.
"Stop talking nonsense to her and get started!"
Mrs. Wang was a little anxious.
What's anxious is that if it doesn't end quickly, Wang Cuihua won't be able to go to the mountains to pick wild flowers in exchange for copper coins.
It's okay to get some money back.
I never considered whether Wang Cuihua would survive afterwards.
"stop!"
"Believe it or not, as long as I don't die today, I will kill your whole family tomorrow!"
Wang Cuihua's eyes were scarlet and she looked straight at the person who was invited in the yard.
The hostility on his body almost turned into substance.
She hates!
She works so hard to live, why is it still difficult for her?
Her mother-in-law invited so many people over today, without even considering whether she could survive today.
She doesn't want to die.
If it had been three days ago, forget it, he would be dead if he died.
In the past five years, her life had been worse than death.
If I can really give birth to a son for the Wang family, my life will not be too miserable in the future.
But now, she thinks differently.
She is now working for Ji Caiyan, earning two taels of silver a month.
That's two taels of silver! With money, there is hope in life, and she wants to live.
She looked at the people wearing red ropes around her, and for the first time her eyes, which had always been docile, became fierce and full of hostility.
Anyone who doesn't want her to live is her enemy.
Everyone was startled by her gaze.
No one bent down to pick up branches from the ground.
This is the first time I have encountered this situation.
Daughters-in-law in the village who were treated like this in the past would either swallow their anger or shed tears of gratitude.
Every daughter-in-law wants to continue the family lineage, and she will bear the pain and will not refuse this ceremony.
There is really no one with such eyes.
Everyone is ignorant, but they are still simple.
"Mrs. Wang, forget it if Cuihua doesn't want to. If someone loses her life, it's hard to explain to Li Zheng."
A man silently took off the red rope from his wrist.
He was just here to help, there was no need to offend Wang Cuihua for five cents.
Moreover, Mrs. Wang wanted to borrow more blessings, so she invited more people. After this circle, people might really die.
After delaying for so long, if you go to the mountains to pick more flowers, you can exchange a lot of copper coins with Wang Cuihua.
"That's right, forget it! Old people say that sincerity brings success. If Cuihua doesn't want it, this method won't work."
The other men also suddenly remembered that Wang Cuihua was in charge of exchanging copper coins. If she was beaten for good or bad, would she still be able to exchange copper coins? Everyone subconsciously looked at Ji Shuchen and Ji Caiyan on the wall.
It was Wang Cuihua hired by Ji Caiyan's family.
"The law of the Great Flame prohibits you from slandering or hurting others at will. If the circumstances are serious, you will be punished with fifty rods and ten years in prison. Those who cause death will be beheaded!"
Ji Shuchen said word by word.
Every time he said a word, his eyes paused on everyone's face.
quiet--
The villagers opened their mouths and looked at Ji Shuchen blankly.
They were just here to help. Why did Ji Shuchen want to kill them after hearing what Ji Shuchen said? "Don't talk nonsense!"
"My daughter-in-law was bought and we can handle it! She has to listen to us. Everyone does this! Why can't she come to us?"
Mrs. Wang saw that everyone was retreating, and she suddenly became anxious.
She firmly believed that this method worked because she was the beneficiary and had been through this method when she was young.
"If it is a death contract, you can indeed leave it to the owner's disposal, but if you are a good citizen, the laws of Dayan will naturally not let everyone present." Ji Shuchen slightly arched his hands towards the crowd with an extraordinary bearing.
If anyone else said this, they would at most be kicked out with brooms.
When that person is in a daze.
But it was Ji Shuchen who spoke, and some of them did not dare to look into Ji Shuchen's eyes.
I just feel that this noble man exiled from the capital has extraordinary bearing and overwhelming nobility.
Make people believe it subconsciously.
"You did give my parents money back then. It was considered a betrothal gift. I am not a slave under a death contract."
"If something happens to me today, even if I turn into a ghost, I will take revenge on you, your wives and children!"
Wang Cuihua gritted her teeth, and red blood flowed from the corners of her mouth.
The whole person is like a ghost.
The villagers subconsciously took a step back.
To help is to help.
But if he doesn't want to, if he takes action again, it will be like killing someone as Ji Shuchen said.
Today, if Wang Cuihua didn't say a word, they could complete the task assigned by Mrs. Wang.
Unexpectedly, Wang Cuihua refused their "help" so firmly and seemed to be fighting to the end.
Just because most people are ignorant doesn't mean they have no conscience.
Besides...it's not like I don't have any sons in my family. If Wang Gang's family has no descendants, they will have no descendants!
Anyway, Wang Gang's mother and son are not popular, one drinks and makes trouble every day, and the other curses in the street every day.
"The tradition of borrowing blessings has been around for a long time. Li Zheng has acquiesced in it. Why don't you help?"
Mrs. Wang was so anxious that she wished she could pick up a branch from the ground and slap her.
"If you can give blessings to others by drawing people, why not draw the person who wants the blessings?"
"Those who can carry on the family line can directly draw the people who want to be passed on. Is it faster to pass on blessings?"
Ji Caiyan sat on the wall and spoke quietly.
quiet--
Everyone was silent again.
Ji Caiyan was stunned.
What the man was thinking was that this noble man from the capital was different from the girls in the village and dared to say anything.
If it were my own girl, I could just kick her over.
There are no waves in the hearts of men.
The old woman and young daughter-in-law who were watching the excitement at the door were stunned, and a light flashed in their cloudy eyes.
Something flashed through my mind.
Some thoughtful people looked at Ji Caiyan thoughtfully, feeling that invisible shackles were being opened deep in their hearts.
Some consciousness begins to awaken.
"Don't listen to her nonsense, won't you use this method in the future?"
"Who can guarantee that he will not use this method in the future?"
"You must help my Gangzi, otherwise no one will use this method in the future!"
Wang Gang became anxious instantly.
There is no one to carry on the family line, what will you do when you get old? He slapped Wang Cuihua, picked up branches from the ground, and gave them to the people in the village one by one.
I'm afraid that today's money will be wasted.
"Sister Cuihua is the one I invited to help you exchange flowers for copper coins. If something happens to her, or she is unwilling to do this job, I will not accept flowers from the village in the future."
Seeing everyone holding the branches at a loss, Ji Caiyan's crisp voice reached everyone's ears.
boom--
Not collecting wild flowers? A big family is a bit more agile, and they can sort out dozens of pieces of paper in a day!
This is not just a matter of five cents! This spring, everyone can pick flowers for two months, and the money they earn will cover their expenses for one or two years!
Having just experienced a cold winter, they want to wear thicker clothes next winter.
Compared with having enough food and clothing, Wang Gang's own interests are of course the most important! Ask for a recommendation ticket.
