The Lord of Rebirth is sick

Chapter 84 Fanwai (4)

After the first rooster crowed in the morning, Shuozhou in the cold winter was still shrouded in darkness. The child curled up in the cold torn cotton on the woodpile was trembling, and his body became tighter and tighter in his sleep.

Then the woman in the bedroom next door got up wrapped in cotton clothes, and the broken door of the firewood room was kicked and slammed loudly by her, startling the sleeping child to wake up immediately.

The woman pointed at her impatiently and shouted: "Bitch girl, the rooster is crowing, don't let me sleep late, get up quickly! Cut the firewood outside, there is no water in the water tank, fill it up quickly! Otherwise Don't think about what my mother will give you to eat!"

The child's somewhat hazy eyes became clear instantly, and there was another layer of indifference in the dark and clear eyes, and he stood up trembling.

The woman glared at the thin little black figure in the darkness, cursed and went back to bed, continuing to avoid the morning chill.

The child walked out of Chaimen, shivering from the cold all over her body. She looked up at the morning star hidden in the east, with a look in her eyes that did not match her age, then picked up the hatchet, which was still a bit heavy for her, and set it Those cold and hard firewood were chopped off one by one and piled neatly outside the house.

When the twilight appeared in the east in the early morning, she breathed hard to recover from the redness and swelling from the cold, and then carried the small bucket to fetch water from the well, and carried it to the water tank in the kitchen with great difficulty.

Her slender body was not much higher than the water bucket, so she worked extremely hard. When the sun rose completely and the woman and child got up, the water tank was only half full.

The woman got up and looked at the water tank, her eyes widened with anger, her eyebrows were raised upright, she stretched out her hand and pinched the child's arm vigorously a few times: "I made you lazy again, I raised you so big, and found such a good one for you. People, you cheap girl, don't do more work for me, are you right?"

While arguing and scolding, the man rushed over and said, "Chen Yuan's wife is here, and she said it was..."

He looked at the indifferent child with some confusion, and finally said: "I said it to come and see, how is the birth, is it smart?"

The woman's ferocious face, which was originally like a yaksha, instantly stretched out, and then her face was wrinkled with a smile: "Oh, Mrs. Chen is here? Does she really mean it? That's great!"

Looking at the child with a blue face and ragged clothes, she frowned and quickly entered the room.In the end, I was quite reluctant to pick and choose, and took a set of clean clothes and threw them to the child: "Hurry up and change, and follow me to meet a nobleman!"

The child looked at her vigilantly, and refused to wear it, but was grabbed by the woman, forced the clothes on, and scolded in a dirty manner: "You really are a bitch, I don't know how to appreciate the clothes for you, and I still refuse to wear them." , what a money loser..."

"Okay, stop scolding, Mrs. Liu is waiting."

The woman gave the man a blank look, and dragged the reluctant child to the front yard.

A rich lady dressed in beautiful red and white flowers sat on a chair, and a maid was waiting respectfully beside her.

The woman looked at her, pinched the struggling child, and put on a smile all over her face: "Mrs. Liu, you're here. Look, it's this girl. How about it? Does it suit your eyes?"

As he spoke, he held down the child and let the lady see.

Mrs. Liu raised her brows, squinted her eyes and looked up and down carefully. After a while, she squeezed the fat on her face and laughed: "It looks good, but it's too thin. There won't be any diseases in this body."

The woman hurriedly laughed and said: "Look at what you said, children from poor families are somewhat thin. This girl doesn't gain weight after eating, but she is very strong. There is no disease."

Mrs. Liu feigned dissatisfaction in her eyes, and shook her head: "At least I am picking a wife for my son. Although she is a child bride, she has to be marked as worthy of my son. I can't lose face to my Liu family in the future."

The woman nodded and bowed and said yes, but secretly despised her in her heart. It's just that she has a little bit of rotten money, and it's not from a wealthy family. How much more good does an idiot son want to find?It's not good enough, it's nice to say.

Mrs. Liu also spit secretly when she saw her flattering virtue, but she was very satisfied with the child, her eyes were full of aura, if this appearance is taken care of well, it might be a sign of growing up.These two people don't look good, but they gave birth to a pretty good daughter, she is really blind, if she grows up, she will definitely be able to marry into a good family.

His face darkened, and he said impatiently: "I won't beat around the bush anymore, just like her, even if it is given to a human trafficker, it is not worth a few dollars. I see that your family has worked hard, so if you give me two taels of silver, just say, sell it or not. .”

The woman was taken aback when she heard this, but then she felt ecstatic and her expression changed. Two liang of silver is enough for her family to live well for a year!

Lest she would regret it, the woman nodded hurriedly.But the eyes of the child who kept bowing his head in silence were full of grief and anger. This Mrs. Liu is the richest family near the beggar's den. Her son has been demented since he was a child, and he has a crooked nose and a slanted mouth.Although she was young, she was always begging outside and had heard everything, so she naturally knew what a child bride was, so she bit the woman hard at that moment.The woman felt the pain, and let go of her hand with an "ouch".

The child suddenly pushed Mrs. Liu aside, and ran away.She didn't know why she suddenly had such courage and wanted to completely break with this cold and heartless family.

It's not that she is not hopeless about the treatment she received in the past, but she is still nostalgic for having a home. Even if she has little clothes and food, she still has a tile to cover her head.Although her parents are not kind and her brothers are not close, she is different from those orphans anyway, so she has been bearing it silently.

Or, precociously, she knew that she would never be able to give up this not-so-reliable dependence.But now, she knows that she has been pushed to the extreme, and she understands even more that her decisive courage comes from the beautiful child who was very gentle and kind to her yesterday, because she said that she would let herself be her school boy.She wants to be her companion, not a child bride for a fool!

She had already learned not to trust others easily, and she didn't know where her trust came from at this moment, but she still did it.

Braving the cold wind and rushing all the way, she felt a little bit of anticipation and a little bit of panic in her heart, and she was in a state of confusion. When she turned the corner of the street, she bumped into a tall body and fell to the ground hard.At the same time, there was a crisp sound, and the child who was a little dizzy from the fall saw a blood-colored jade pendant spinning on the ground not far away. One of the big hands picked up the jade pendant very quickly, and a male voice said angrily: "Little brat, I'm in a hurry to reincarnate, if it's not in the first month, I'll beat you to death!" He spat.

The child ignored it, endured the pain in his body, struggled to get up, grabbed the man's arm, stared at the jade in his hand, and forced himself to calm down: "Where did you get this jade?"

There was a little panic in the man's eyes, and he said viciously: "It's none of your business! It's in my hands, of course it belongs to me, go away!"

The child was still stubborn and said: "You are talking nonsense, you are a thief, this jade is not yours, you stole it from a child, right?"

The man suddenly became furious and wanted to shake off the child, but the child refused to let go. He looked at the passers-by who stopped and pointed, his face was sweating, and then a sternness flashed in his eyes: "Damn girl, You deserve a beating."

He stretched out his foot and kicked the child aside, turned around and wanted to leave, but she grabbed the hem of his clothes again.

The child gritted his teeth, endured the pain, and still didn't let go. Looking at the onlookers, he became wise in a hurry, and shouted loudly: "You return the jade, I know this jade, it is the Su family who has given away the porridge and clothes these days." The jade pendant of the young lady, I saw it when I was receiving the porridge. The Su family is the benefactor of many people in Shuozhou, how can you do this!"

More and more people gathered around, some people went to collect things, received the favor of the Su family, and many of them also knew the good name of the Su family. Immediately, some people became agitated and began to discuss continuously. It seemed that they were suspicious, and there was even someone on the sidelines stop him.

Seeing that he was disturbed, the child jumped up and bit his wrist fiercely, snatching Yu away.

Panicked and angry, the man stretched out his feet and kicked the child to the ground. He kept kicking and beating him, and said viciously, "Little bastard, you can't steal my jade. I kindly let you go, but you beat me upside down. I'll beat you to death!" You, let you talk nonsense, let you slander me, return the jade!"

The thin body curled up tightly on the ground, letting the foot kick on the body, and grasping the ground tightly with his hands.

And here Su Liushang, accompanied by Su Yan, swayed with a dejected expression on his face, but refused to go home.

Su Yan knew that the little master was unhappy, so he said with a worried face: "Little master, don't be sad, I have already notified them to find jade for you, don't worry, I will definitely find it back. The little beggar you are looking for, as long as Go look for it in the beggar's den over there, we'll definitely find it, let's go back first, or else my wife and master will be worried."

Su Liushang's small brows were tightly frowned: "But that jade, father said it is very important, it is a family heirloom, if I lose it, father will be angry. And why didn't she come, she clearly agreed yesterday, why? You can lie to me." Her small mouth was slightly constricted, her eyes were red, and she was about to cry.

Su Yan knew his little master like a little adult, but this time his eyes turned red, I'm afraid it's really uncomfortable.Heartbroken, he was ready to coax, but when he turned around the street, he saw a bunch of people making noise, and men were cursing, it seemed that something had happened.

Someone couldn't help saying: "This is too much, such a small child, beating so hard."

Su Liuzhang could hear clearly, but at this moment she was a little curious, so she hurried over, and Su Yan hurriedly squeezed in protecting her.

But seeing a tall and strong man still kicking and kicking the thin little shadow lying on the ground, the people beside him hesitated to make a move, the child was almost silent, Su Yan suddenly became angry.

Su Liuzhang couldn't see someone bullying a child the most, so he immediately shouted: "Stop!"

Su Yan stepped over and bumped into the kicked foot of the man. With his inner strength, he directly ejected the man and fell.

"It's really a shame for a big man to beat up a child in the street!"

Su Liuzhang hurried over, helped the child who was curled up together, looked at the somewhat bruised face, and was stunned: "Why is it you? Why did he hit you!"

The man got up from the ground, and when he saw Su Liushang, he panicked and ran away from the crowd.

Hearing the familiar child's voice, the child was overjoyed, and hurriedly spread his clenched palms, handed the blood-red jade to Su Liushang, and said softly, "He..."

Su Liuzhang came to his senses immediately, his heart was burning with anger, and there was a majesty in his immature voice: "Su Yan, bring him back!"

After hearing this, Su Yan immediately jumped over the crowd, and landed in front of the man with a slash, choked him, and threw him over.

Su Liushang's face was filled with cold anger, and he walked over and stomped on the man's feet: "You bastard, who allowed you to beat her and steal my jade!"

She frowned and shouted, "Su Yan, kick him for me!"

Su Yan was a little amused, but still lowered his eyes and kicked the man's leg. The people around him heard a "click" clearly, and the man howled miserably, hugging his leg and repeatedly begging for mercy.

Su Liuzhang looked at the children who couldn't stand, hurriedly supported her, and said anxiously: "Su Yan, hand him over to the government. And take her to see a doctor, let's go back."

Su Yan nodded, and gave some money to the two men beside him: "Please send him to the official, and say that he stole the heirloom jade pendant of the young master of the Su Mansion by provoking trouble in the street."

When the few people heard that it really belonged to the Su family, they hurriedly agreed and dragged them over.

Su Yan walked over, ready to hold the baby.The child trembled, shrank a little, hid for a while, and tightly grabbed Su Liushang's sleeve.

Su Liushang hurriedly coaxed her: "Don't be afraid, he is not a bad person, you are injured, let him hug you, I will take you to see a doctor, be good."

Seeing her small appearance, Su Yan was only a head taller than this child, and the words she said were just like his wife coaxing her, and she almost laughed, but she held it back in time.

But the child obviously trusted her very much, and was obedient, so he obediently let Su Yan hug her.

The child was hugged by Su Yan, and his expression was a little sluggish. It was obvious that he had been beaten hard, but he kept his eyes open and turned his head to look at Su Liushang who was walking beside him. His eyes were full of mist, but he was restrained in joy.

And Su Liushang thought she was in severe pain, and acted like a little adult, so he kept comforting her.

On the street, three people, one big and two young, actually formed an indescribable picture.
