Take a fool to farm

Chapter 59 Meeting in a narrow road

The eighteen bends of the mountain road are rough and difficult to walk, even so, so what, I personally agreed to the old lady, besides, I have been watching the child grow up all the time, so I am worried if I can't find anyone.Which Zhuangzi will that poisonous woman of the Lin family send her to?Madam Hu counted that this was the eighth Zhuangzi in more than three months. In the early years, the old lady was in charge, and only these Zhuangzi were known.There is no one here, so I have to go back to Changzhou City, and I have to try my best to find out where the other Zhuangzi of the magistrate's family are.She doesn't believe in evil anymore, how many living people disappeared for nothing?

Nanny Hu pulled the burden over her shoulders, leaning on a bamboo stick to continue walking.Since leaving the mansion, I have been to several Zhuangzi in a row, and sometimes I regret that I should not have been tempted by Lin's ten taels of silver. I have been greedy for ten taels of silver, and now I am doing well. I have spent all 20 taels of silver and have not found anyone. .If this goes on like this, if all the money on my body is spent, I will have to pawn jewelry.Afraid of encountering bad people, after leaving the mansion, I also found a hidden place to hide the jewelry. Alas, people are useless when they are old. After thinking about it for a while, I can't think about it for the rest of my life, so I have to go back to get the jewelry!

"Wow, woof, woof, woof..." Just as Madam Hu was walking and concentrating on her calculations, a mangy big yellow dog suddenly jumped out from the door of the house and barked its teeth at her.

"Don't come here, don't come here, I tell you, this bamboo stick of mine is not a vegetarian!" Mother Hu raised the bamboo stick in her hand in shock and shook it.

"Woof woof woof woof woof woof woof" the dog couldn't understand human words, and seeing the bamboo stick raised by Madam Hu barked more and more, it frightened her enough!

"Rhubarb, keep an eye on the door. If the person who pays the bill comes, bite him to death. If you bite to death, I will eat the soup!" A woman's voice came out in the room, "I don't believe it, who can do it?" Money is more important than life, the people outside the door listen, if you want money or not, if you want a life, it depends on whether the life is the old gambler's or yours!"

"Sister-in-law, I'm not asking for a bill, I'm just passing by, please help me to stop the dog, it's really biting me, I can't move, so I have to stay at your house!" Mother Hu heard The yelling and scolding were dumbfounding, everyone said that the vicious dog was in power, but they didn't think that this vicious dog was really the family's loyal watchdog.

"Rhubarb, you yellow-eyed dog, you can't even tell the people who are going to pass by, why are you biting so hard?"My old lady is about to eat human flesh and you still have something to eat!The woman was cursing in her heart and still went out. Since when did people pass by in this poor mountain village?When he looked up, he froze for a moment.

"Nurse Hu?" The woman blurted out, raised her hand to wipe her eyes and shouted again: "Nurse Hu, how could it be you?" Yes, it was really her, although she was not as dignified as she was in the mansion He looks good, but his face has not changed and he is energetic, but he is dressed in dust and dust, and he is really on his way!

"You are?" Madam Hu narrowed her eyes and looked again and again, and then looked around at the mountain village and the thatched cottage in front of her. She never expected to meet an old friend in another land!It's just that the person in front of me is somewhat familiar, and I really can't remember who it is because I'm getting older: "Sorry, I'm forgetful, who are you, how do you know me?" At the time when I was in charge, it didn't matter if everyone recognized me. The old lady has been out of business for many years, and she has lived in seclusion in the second line. How could a woman know herself?
"Hahaha, Mother Hu, if you say you are a nobleman, forget about things!" The woman kicked Rhubarb and said, "Go away, this is my old acquaintance!"

With a sound of "Woo!", Rhubarb wailed, and sure enough, obediently burrowed into the kennel under the eaves of the thatched roof, sticking out only one head, sticking out its tongue, and panting continuously.

"I said, Mother Hu, it's true to say that you are a noble person who forgets too much!" Seeing that Da Huang left obediently, the woman slapped her forehead and laughed loudly: "Actually, you are not considered a noble person at all. You have been a slave for a while, and now you have left the Wang family like me!" The difference is that the old lady you met returned her life deed before she died, but the old lady was sold to an old gambler by that vicious Lin family. .

The magistrate, the Wang family, and Madam Hu took a closer look. The woman in front of her was indeed very familiar, but she just couldn't remember who it was.Although they are all slaves, slaves are also divided into three, six or nine grades. A first-class slave like myself is raised as half of the master. It is common for hundreds of slaves in the magistrate's family not to remember.What's more, the servants of the magistrate Wang's family are all slick and smooth, but the woman in front of him is sallow and thin, who remembers who you are.

"Hey, that's not right, Mother Hu, didn't you go out to look for relatives? Why, your relatives are in this mountain?" The woman suddenly screamed loudly: "Oh, I remembered, my old gambler said , when he was young, when the disaster came, he had no food or clothing. His parents sold his sister and left him alone. Later, his parents starved to death in order to save a morsel of food for him, and he was the only one left in the family. Oh, Madam Hu, don’t you think you are the old gambler’s older sister!” Thinking of this possibility, the woman stepped forward with excitement and took Hu Nanny’s hand and dragged her into the thatched cottage: "Come on, come in quickly, why don't you come in when you get to the door of the house, if you want the old gambler to know that I have neglected his own sister, he must beat me to death!"

One mouthful of an old gambler, one mouthful of a real sister, Mother Hu is a smart person, and she is said to be confused.Who do you think has a sick mind and is fed up to recognize an old gambler as his younger brother!Don't say it's impossible, even if it's possible, I don't want to admit it.A lifetime is very long, and a lifetime is also very short. A long lifetime has come with the old lady, and it may not be possible to have a relationship with an old gambler in a short period of time. Then, do you want to live a quiet life for a few days?
"That, I'm not!" Madam Hu struggled to get rid of her hand, but it wasn't enthusiasm but arrogance that she was grabbing tightly and pulling her into the room.Madam Hu thought about the seven or eight places she had traveled in the past few months and did not encounter the robbery she imagined. She will probably be robbed by a woman today!It's not right, she worked as a slave in the magistrate's back house, and she knows her face well, so she shouldn't rob herself no matter what.Or, is it someone who was punished by the old lady when she was in charge of the house, holding a grudge and waiting for an opportunity to retaliate?
"Oh, wait for my old gambler to come back and check it out!" I couldn't get enough of pulling with one hand, so I simply dragged forward with both hands: "Besides, I think you are tired from walking, so even if you don't Dear sister, because we have worked together for so many years, I won't charge you if I come in to drink a bowl of water!"

I am not afraid of taking money, but I am afraid that you will take my old life!No matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't get rid of her hands. These hands were rough and cracked but very strong. It looked like someone who was used to doing farm work and doing coolies.Although she doesn't have a lot of money, since she knows that she works in the Wang family, she must also know that she has a lot of money, and she is most afraid of encountering a greedy person who seeks money and kills her.
