pawn wife

Speaking of her sadness, Chen couldn't help crying. She thought that her little son, who was only half a year old, would be difficult for mother and child to see each other in the future, and her heart felt as uncomfortable as if a piece had been dug out.

Probably the sorrows of human beings are not connected, Zhang Lianzi has a small face, she really doesn't understand why her mother is crying at this time, the elder brother is still in prison, she should find a way to rescue the elder brother, don't take the opportunity to talk to sister Chang Is it interesting to say this and cry about things that have passed?

Zhang Lianzi was indifferent to her half-brother whom she had never met. Compared to this, she cared more about her elder brother who depended on her for life.

After crying for a long time, Mrs. Chen didn't hear Chang Xi's comforting voice. She boldly raised her tearful eyes and saw her frowning, and she woke up. The other party didn't seem to want to hear her complaint, so she hurriedly said, "Ms. Chang Forgive me, I lost my sense of proportion when I was sad for a while, I didn't do it on purpose..."

Chang Xi looked at her, "Then what are your plans next?"

As soon as this was mentioned, Mrs. Chen became confused. Before leaving the court, she listened to her father, and after she got married, she listened to her husband. Later, when her husband pawned her to Master Lu, she listened to Master Lu. Now her husband sold her to Mrs. Chang. She, "I listened to Mrs. Chang..."

Chang Xi watched Chen think for a long time before thinking of this answer. She was really speechless. This is a woman who lost herself in the feudal patriarchal society. Thinking of this, she became more patient with Chen.

"I don't have that much time to take care of you, what you want to do, you should think about it quickly." She took out the deed of sale and handed it to Zhang Lianzi, "Lianzi, you put this away, Sister Chang's doing this is just a stopgap measure, I don't want you to be enslaved."

This deed of sale is not counted unless it is filed with the government, so Zhang Lianzi and the Chen family are still good citizens.

"Sister Chang, I can't take it. When my brother comes out, I will ask my brother to redeem it with silver..." Zhang Lianzi waved her hands and refused to accept the contract of sale. Their siblings already owed Chang Xi a lot, let alone Let her spend more money, not to mention how only their brother and sister are left, Brother Afa has gone, thinking of this, her eyes filled with tears again.

Chang Xi rubbed the top of the little girl's head, this is a distressed child, too sensible, "Don't worry, the 25 taels of silver won't be cheaper than your scumbag father, what he eats today will be what he will do in the future Spit it out, I can assure you of that."

Zhang Lianzi's eyes lit up, does this mean not to let the scumbag father go?

That's great, she hated her father, that beast who didn't care about family affection, she wished he would die on the street like Xu Dalang's mother and son, so that she wouldn't have to live in fear anymore.

However, she never mentioned these hidden thoughts to anyone. At this moment, she secretly looked at her mother. Fortunately, her mother was still looking at the street scene blankly, and did not listen carefully to her conversation with Sister Chang. She knew that her mother was very nervous. She listened to her father, so she didn't dare to bet on who her mother would lean towards in the end?
Chang Xi could see Zhang Lianzi's subtle performance. In terms of the role of mother, Mrs. Chen was unqualified. She looked at Mrs. Chen with a bit of hatred, but she knew that she could not be blamed on Mrs. Chen. , She was deeply poisoned by feudal ideology, and wanting to get rid of these shackles is no less than a new life.

There is no rush.

The group of pawn wives is very special. Not everyone has her ability and luck. The Xie family she met is not a family with no bottom line. On the contrary, the Xie family is a truly scholarly family with much higher moral requirements than ordinary people. of.

What's more important is her thoughts, which is the key reason why she can break free from the fate of pawn wife.

But old-age women like the Chen family lacked such an opportunity to emancipate their minds.

If she wants to understand the crux of the matter, Chang Xi no longer struggles with it. Change requires a process, and everything will change if she does not encourage it. Although she is eager to speak out for her female group, collective aphasia is not a matter of a day or two. It has a history of thousands of years, and it will not happen overnight.

After hearing Chang Xi's explanation, this time Zhang Lianzi did not refuse to take the ineffective deed of sale, but she still emphasized: "Sister Chang, you must get the money back from my father."

Seeing Zhang Lianzi whispering in her ear, Chang Xi finally had a smile in his eyes.

"Sister Chang, am I bad?"

Seeing the little girl's lack of confidence, Chang Xi reached out and rubbed the top of her head lightly, and gave the little girl an affirmative answer, "No, Lianzi, you did the right thing, he is not worthy to be Lianzi's father."

"really?"

Chang Xi nodded affirmatively, and then saw the light in the little girl's eyes again, yes, isn't this new generation much better than the old generation sitting over there like a dead person?

This is hope.

The carriage drove to the government office first, Chang Xi did not get out of the carriage this time, but asked someone to take Chen Shi and Zhang Lianzi to the prison to meet Zhang Yingda, although she acted very cold in front of the young man, in fact she was soft-hearted in the end No, Zhang Yingda was not in torment.

Seeing his mother walking slowly, holding his sister's hand, Zhang Yingda cried again. He knew that Chang Xi would not ignore his sister, but he didn't expect that even his mother would come back this time.

When Chen saw her eldest son, she was so excited that she burst into tears.

Zhang Lianzi didn't cry any more, but seized the time to tell her elder brother what had happened. Sure enough, she saw the deep-rooted hatred for her father in his elder brother's eyes, so she gave up, and finally choked up: "Brother, you must Hold on, my mother and I can't live without you."

Zhang Yingda nodded fiercely, he will never give up on himself, he must be strong to get through this test, as for revenge for his good brother, ten years is not too late.

Coming out of the prison, a smile appeared on Zhang Lianzi's face. Her elder brother was in good condition. It could be seen that Mrs. Chang had taken care of it secretly, so she was not abused by the jailer.

She is confident that her brother will definitely come out of here. After all, he didn't kill anyone, but just fought, and the crime is not worthy of death. After all, she listened to the education of the tea brick workshop to popularize the law every class, so she kept it in her heart .

Chang Xi didn't come forward to take care of the case, but she specially sent someone to deal with it. After taking Chen and Zhang Lianzi's mother and daughter back to the workshop, she asked Dongli to arrange for the mother and daughter to live in the back yard.

She didn't arrange any work for these two people, but Mrs. Chen was very discerning, and found herself a cleaning job, with extremely diligent hands and feet, and it was obvious that she was used to the job.

Chang Xi didn't care too much, if it made Mrs. Chen feel at ease living here, then let her go, but once or twice when she came back, she heard that Mrs. Chen taught Mrs. Chen how to read in private. It's a serious matter, but Zhang Lianzi's small face is very serious.

"Mom, can't you study hard? Sister Chang said that reading can make people wise, and studying is good..."

"Hey, I'm already at this age, what else do I study? I don't take the imperial examination." Chen didn't think so.

"Mother, you are so backward," Zhang Lianzi pointed to the older aunts in the workshop, "They also learn to read. Sister Chang said that learning is regardless of age, it only cares whether you want to or not. The cook who cooks rice is also literate, mother, do you want to live like this for the rest of your life?"
