Past Events 7
Sun Wuya's heart was pounding, she couldn't tell what she was feeling, but a strong intuition urged her to leave quickly.
The eldest sister was a little confused. The two of them were just cuddling together and chatting, but why did Sun Wuya suddenly become emotional? She wanted to speak up to persuade her, but saw that Sun Wuya had a serious expression on her face.
Thinking that Wu Ya must have suffered a lot of grievances during her absence, the eldest sister stood up and planned to leave with Wu Ya overnight.
Suddenly, there was a whisper of voices outside. Looking up, I saw a torch looming among the trees.
Seeing this scene, Sun Wuya's face turned pale. With trembling hands, she grabbed her elder sister's sleeve and whispered, "Let's go, elder sister, let's go quickly."
The eldest sister also knew that someone was chasing them, so she pulled Sun Wuya and carried the package, and the two of them sneaked out from the back door of the dilapidated temple.
Hearing the voices behind her getting louder and louder, she looked back and saw that the group of people had already arrived at the ruined temple and were looking for them everywhere. Thinking of the outcome of her last failed escape, Sun Wuya murmured in her heart, she must not be caught and taken back. She must not be caught and taken back.
The two men ran around in the woods, ignoring the branches and weeds, fearing that the people behind them would catch up.
Seeing the distance getting farther and farther, Sun Wuya was about to put her mind at ease when she suddenly heard a few dogs barking in the distance, and her heart instantly rose to her throat again.
what to do?
"What do you think we should do?" Sun Wuya looked at Li Pingan.
Li Ping'an knew that this was the familiar "knowledge quiz" session. If these dogs had really smelled Sun Wuya's scent and could track her, then there was no point in running around. He could only rely on something to cover up the smell on his body. "See if there is any feces of other animals nearby, and smear it on his body to cover up the smell." Although it sounded a bit disgusting, and was even more disgusting in practice, at a critical moment, he didn't care so much.
After hearing Li Ping'an's words, Sun Wuya was silent for a moment. After a while, she raised her head and looked at Li Ping'an with a complicated look in her eyes. "I didn't expect that."
Just as Sun Wuya said, the situation was urgent at the time and her head was full of panic. She only thought about covering up the smell on her body, but forgot how to cover it up more appropriately.
In desperation, Sun Wuya pulled her elder sister into the river. She was not a good swimmer and became sober as soon as she entered the river. She wanted to climb ashore, but she had no way and could only splash around in the water in the middle of the river.
The eldest sister was better at swimming. When she saw Sun Wuya's situation, she wanted to go over and help her, but Sun Wuya grabbed her shoulders. As they were about to sink to the bottom of the river together, Sun Wuya suddenly woke up and realized what she had done. She quickly let go of the eldest sister and pushed her to the other side with her strength, "Go, go."
Hearing the noise coming from not far away, the eldest sister wanted to come back and pull Sun Wuya, but she heard Sun Wuya shouting at the top of her lungs: "Go away!"
Watching her elder sister swimming to the other side, Sun Wuya breathed a sigh of relief. Listening to the footsteps coming from behind her, she gritted her teeth and thought that she would never fall into his hands again, even if she died.
So he gave up struggling and let himself slowly sink into the water, being washed away by the flow of the river.
Sun Wuya was woken up by someone. Looking at the furious old man in front of her, her first reaction was that she was not dead yet.
When the old man saw Sun Wuya wake up, he was immediately furious. He slapped her in the face and pointed at her with a shaking finger, "You rebellious son, money-loser, bitch..."
Sun Wuya listened to the familiar curses, closed her eyes, and said, "Whatever you want to do." The old man became even angrier when he saw her like this, but suddenly laughed out loud while he was angry.
When Sun Wuya heard this laugh, she thought he had finally gone mad. She opened her eyes and looked over, only to find that he was just staring at her, his eyes full of the satisfaction of revenge. "Don't blame me for being cruel."
As if to deliberately make Sun Wuya miserable, the old man squatted aside and said, "I found a place for you, a secret door." It's not that there is no better place to go, but the old man hates Sun Wuya so much now, and he is afraid that she will not be able to live a good life one day.
Afraid that Sun Wuya didn't know what the secret door was for, he carefully explained to her, "This is different from the brothel your elder sister went to. This place is dirty and smelly. As long as you pay a little money, you can go there."
"Just lie in bed until you die."
After saying that, the old man kicked Sun Wuya again and was about to leave. Unexpectedly, Sun Wuya, who was lying on the ground, suddenly asked in a dark voice, "Are we still your daughters?"
Why did he hate them so much? This was the way he treated his enemies.
The old man paused, but said nothing and continued walking out.
Sun Wuya just lay on the muddy ground, staring at a centipede not far away. Crawl over here, crawl over here, crawl into her ears, then into her head, and help her get rid of it.
Even though Sun Wuya begged him, the centipede kept walking away.
Sun Wuya turned her body slightly and changed into a more comfortable position. She thought positively, it didn't matter, at least her eldest sister escaped, and she knew how hateful the old man was and would never come back.
Sun Wuya seemed to have compromised. She stopped running away and making a fuss, and was being scrutinized like an animal.
Suddenly, a cry came from the distance. It was her eldest sister. Sun Wuya immediately turned her head, her face full of worry. Why? Didn't she escape? Why did she come back?
The old man had obviously heard the voice as well. He squinted his eyes and looked outside. After seeing who it was, he suddenly laughed, "Are you here to buy your sister?"
Listen to what a human being said: A daughter buys another daughter from her father with money.
The old man didn't care. He had already thought that since the eldest girl was able to escape from the brothel, she must have some money with her. He had been eyeing the money for a long time.
Sun Wuya was originally worried that her elder sister would be eaten up and then sold to the secret society along with her. Fortunately, her elder sister brought a man with her.
Obviously, the eldest sister was also disgusted by the old man's words. She frowned and asked him, "How much do you want?"
The old man stroked his dry, yellow beard and said in a timid manner, "This man wants to give me one ounce and five cents of silver. How much can you offer?"
The eldest sister touched her purse and said firmly, "I'll give you two taels of silver."
The old man nodded after hearing this, and seemed satisfied. He exchanged a glance with the madam of the secret door. The madam suddenly said, "She looks good to me. I can offer two taels and one cent."
Everyone present could see what she and the old man were planning, but they couldn't do anything about them. The eldest sister had no choice but to continue, "Two taels and two cents."
"Two taels and three cents,"
"Two taels and four cents,"
…
The price slowly increased to three taels. The eldest sister's face was solemn. Sun Wuya shook her head with tears in her eyes, begging the eldest sister not to pay any more.
But the eldest sister didn't listen. When she shouted "three taels and two cents", there was despair on her face.
Seeing this, the madam looked at the old man and nodded.
The old man immediately became excited, coughed, and pretended to be a gentleman, "Since you offer a high price, your sister will be yours."
"But let's make it clear: we pay for the goods."
When Sun Wuya was held in her elder sister's arms, she cried inconsolably.
Unable to stay in this place any longer, the eldest sister brought Sun Wuya to the city.
After venting her anger along the way, Sun Wuya's emotions stabilized a little. The man had left, and now only Sun Wuya and her elder sister were left. Sun Wuya choked up and said, "Eldest sister, don't worry, I will definitely return the money to you."
The elder sister stroked her hair and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? My money is yours."
Sun Wuya didn't say anything else, but just lay on her elder sister's legs and secretly made up her mind that she must return the money to her elder sister in the future.
The eldest sister rented a house with a small yard. The location was not good. There were many ruffians nearby who often harassed nearby residents. The eldest sister comforted her and said that when she made money in the future, she would move to a better place to live.
After escaping from the old man, Sun Wuya looked at the city in front of her, which was much more prosperous than the village. She was full of fighting spirit and believed that she could make a name for herself here.
But after walking around, Sun Wuya was confused. She couldn't even recognize the words here, let alone write them. There were places recruiting female workers, but she didn't meet the requirements. She volunteered to find a job in a restaurant, but was kicked out by the boss.
Everything was different from what she had imagined.
Seeing that Sun Wuya was frustrated, the eldest sister comforted her like she did when they were children, saying, "It's okay, take it slow, don't worry."
But looking at her elder sister's appearance, Sun Wuya became more and more anxious. She was not a child, and she could observe that her elder sister had no money at all. At this moment, she regretted very much that she should have found a chance to take out the ten copper coins buried under the bed.
Sun Wuya had been trying during this period, and finally, she came up with an idea: to sell breakfast on the street. There were not many styles, but mainly vegetable cakes made from seasonal vegetables.
This vegetable pancake is relatively new to the people in this small town. At the beginning, the business was relatively good. But later, more and more people learned to make it and came out to compete for the business, so Sun Wuya's business became a little worse. But it doesn't matter, at least she can still make some money every day.
When she had some extra money, Sun Wuya was thinking about adding a new trick. But one morning, Sun Wuya stood in front of the stall for half an hour, but no one came to buy cakes. Instead, they avoided her.
Sun Wuya was puzzled and thought that her colleagues were causing trouble, so she shouted even louder, but still no one came to buy her things.
Finally, it was an old customer who secretly told her and asked her sister if she came from a brothel, saying that what she made was not clean.
