Chapter 3 I Like Selling People for Money
Hao was shocked and asked in surprise, "Cuihua, what happened? Zhuang Yan is still sick and can't get up. How come he was sold all of a sudden?"
Jiang Cuihua also looked helpless and angry, "I don't know, I heard that Boss Zhuang has already received the money. Let's go and take a look."
"Maybe it can be salvaged!"
Hao frowned and was about to follow, but suddenly remembered that Liu Shiqi was still there.
It’s my daughter’s first day home. How could she just abandon her daughter and not care about her?
Let her daughter think that she doesn't care about her...
Hao hesitated.
Jiang Cuihua was anxious, and even though she saw Liu Shiqi, she couldn't care about him for the time being.
She urged, "Afu, hurry up, it will be too late if you are any later!"
"When Zhuang Yu left, he asked us to take better care of Zhuang Yan..."
Hao was a little embarrassed, "Cuihua, you go first, I, I'll be there in a while..."
Jiang Cuihua frowned, but nodded and left quickly.
Liu Shiqi saw that Hao was obviously anxious to go, and knew that it was because of her that she was delayed, so she said, "Mom, I want to go and see too, can I?"
When Mrs. Hao heard her calling her mother, her eyes immediately brightened and she held her hand even tighter.
"Of course, of course you can. Mom will take you to see it!"
Old Man Zhong also wanted to go and take a look, so he approached the two of them and said, "Shi Qi, grandpa will go with you to take a look too!"
Liu Shiqi quite liked this spirited old man. She smiled and nodded, "Okay, let's go together, grandpa!"
Old man Zhong immediately burst into laughter.
He decided to give the heirloom to his youngest granddaughter Liu Shiqi!
Who says she is the most likable?
Seeing how happy they were, Liu Changying felt a little envious and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.
Liu Shiqi looked at him and asked, "Dad, do you want to go with us?"
Liu Changying froze. He wanted to nod, but finally shook his head and said, "Dad will go back and cook! We'll eat when you come back."
He had no friendship with the banker and was not willing to join in the fun.
Hao's eyes were full of tenderness. "Husband, let's have noodles at noon. Today is our daughter's...birthday!"
She thought of Liu Shiqiao and still felt sad. But he quickly calmed down.
"Kill the old hen at home and stew it too!"
There was warmth in Liu Changying's eyes, and he also thought of Liu Shiqiao. I feel bad too.
"Okay! I'll listen to you!"
"I'll go to Zhou's house again and exchange some pork or eggs!"
Old Man Zhong didn't want Liu Shiqiao because he never liked that girl.
He said with a smile, "Changying, stew the mushrooms I dried! Let's have a good meal today!"
Liu Changying nodded, "Okay, Dad, you guys go quickly!"
Liu Shiqi followed Old Man Zhong and Mrs. Hao and quickly went to the banker's house.
On the way, Hao explained to her, "Shi Qi, your elder brother and second brother probably won't be back until the evening."
"Your third sister is helping out at your cousin's house and won't be back today."
"Don't mind it. They are all shocked and feel sorry for you when they find out about you!"
"I want to see you as soon as possible!"
Liu Shiqi nodded, "Mom, I know!"
On the way, there were a few villagers who heard the news and went to the Zhuang family together. They were all talking about the Zhuang family.
Seeing that Liu Shiqi was curious, Old Man Zhong quickly explained to him.
"The Zhuang family has three sons, the eldest, the second and the third. The family was very poor and could barely make ends meet. The second son, Zhuang Yu, was sold away. I heard that by chance, he entered the palace and became a eunuch."
Several male villagers were silent for a while.
"Later, Zhuang Yu became quite popular. Even the county magistrate here had to be respectful to him when he saw him."
"More than ten years ago, Zhuang Yu brought back a child from outside and named him Zhuang Yan, saying that he was the one to carry on his family line, and asked Zhuang Lao Da and Zhuang Lao San to help raise him."
"The eldest and third brothers of the banker were unwilling at first."
"But Zhuang Yu built a big house for the Zhuang family, bought good farmland, and left a lot of money. The Zhuang family once became the richest family in the village. The eldest and third sons of the Zhuang family happily supported Zhuang Yan."
"But in recent years, I don't know what happened to Zhuang Yu outside. I haven't heard from him for several years. I haven't given him any money either."
"Zhuang Lao Da and Zhuang Lao San were kind to Zhuang Yan at the beginning, but as time went on, they became less and less fond of him."
"I was not allowed to read books, and I had to wear clothes left over from the eldest child in the village, and I could barely eat."
"I do dirty and tiring work every day and can only sleep in the woodshed."
Old Man Zhong stroked his beard and said coldly, "They have determined that Zhuang Yu will not come back! That's why they are trying to torment Zhuang Yan."
"I heard that Boss Zhuang's third son wants to get married, but the gift is not enough."
"Zhuang Lao San is also planning to arrange a marriage for his son..."
"That's why I'm planning to sell Zhuang Yan to raise money!"
Mrs. Hao was a little angry, "The Zhuang family's house and land were given to Zhuang Yan by Zhuang Yu."
"If they don't want to raise Zhuang Yan anymore, they can just split him up and live on their own. Why would they sell off a healthy child?"
“It’s absolutely heartless!”
Someone couldn't help but say, "Back then, they sold Zhuang Yu for money and supported the whole Zhuang family. Now, aren't they selling Zhuang Yu's child?"
Several other villagers also echoed, "No matter how their family lives, they like to sell people for money..."
"Don't you remember? The mother of the three Zhuang brothers was sold by their father as a pawn wife."
"Oh, what a piece of shit..."
Liu Shiqi frowned, [Zhuang Yan? 】
[Why does it sound so familiar?] 】
[I think I’ve heard of it before…]
[Why can’t I remember it!] 】
[Maybe, he is just an ordinary person!] 】
[Just like my original self, I am just a cannon fodder...]
[I feel a little sympathetic towards him...]
Old Man Zhong: Just a passerby? cannon fodder? What is it?
But Zhuang Yan is indeed worthy of sympathy.
Shi Qi is such a kind-hearted child!
Hao's heart was trembling, she heard her daughter's voice again!
She was indeed ill...and very ill!
Her mind was a little confused.
Could it be the retribution for stealing vegetables from Mrs. Li’s house before?
The Zhuang family lives at the east end of Haojiagou Village. They have five large tiled houses and are indeed very conspicuous in the countryside.
The door of the dealer was already crowded with people.
Hao directly pulled Liu Shiqi, squeezed into the crowd, and stood at the front. Old man Zhong followed behind them.
As soon as Liu Shiqi entered, he saw several people in the field.
Jiang Cuihua was holding a half-grown boy in her arms. He looked about the same age as her and was very thin.
[Oh my god, a super beautiful boy who is as weak as a willow in the wind!] 】
Liu Shiqi screamed inwardly, but he appeared calm and composed, not showing it at all.
[Too good to find such a beauty in a place like this! 】
[Oh my god, I really want to kiss you, hug you, and lift you up high...]
【Let me comfort his wounded heart! 】
Liu Shiqi smiled like an auntie and looked at Zhuang Yan quietly.
When Mrs. Hao and Old Man Zhong heard her inner thoughts, they both froze.
Mrs. Hao was ashamed. Fortunately, she was the only one who could hear her daughter's voice, otherwise it would be... a bit embarrassing.
Old man Zhong stroked his beard, squinted at Zhuang Yan, and then at Liu Shiqi.
My granddaughter likes her, so why not find a way to bring her back and give her to Shi Qi to play with?
Just consider it as Shi Qi’s birthday present?
When this kid grows up, he can marry into their family!
Old man Zhong has made up his mind not to marry Liu Shiqi.
Zhuang Yan's face was pale and he was trembling in Aunt Cuihua's arms.
Suddenly, a sweet girl's voice came into his mind, a voice he had never heard before.
