Chapter 4 A world where humans are inferior to dogs
The child held the car door and cried desperately, "Oh, mother, don't sell me, I won't leave! I don't dare to ask for fish soup anymore, mother, don't sell me!"
The strong man was also ruthless, and he slashed the child on the back of the neck with a knife.
The child fainted and was put into the carriage.
The child's mother took half the bag of grain, lowered her head and ran away quickly.
“What a sin, what a pity!”
Tao Hongying kept shaking her head, and when she heard her daughter squealing, she realized that her face was red from being suppressed, and she quickly let go.
Jiayin took a few deep breaths and felt uncomfortable. She was selling her child!
Half a bag of grain can change a life!
The strong man continued to shout, "I want to exchange food for children. The girl has ten kilograms of millet, and the boy has twenty kilograms! If you have anything to exchange, hurry up and come here!"
“The girl and the boy are just a burden to escape. If we exchange for food, the whole family can survive, and they can also find a way to survive!”
A basket of millet is placed in the sun, and it becomes more and more golden, making greedy people swallow their saliva.
Some people’s family background is already weak, and they have been on the road for half a month and have no food.
As a result, more girls and boys were thrown into the car one after another crying loudly, and the family members were filled with millet, their heads drooped and their heads shrank.
Everyone in the Li family watched under the shade of the tree and sighed.
Separation of flesh and blood is a human tragedy!
Let alone Zhao Yuru and Tao Hongying, even Wu Cuihua didn't say anything unpleasant. After all, they were all mothers, and they despised this the most.
Li Jiayin hid in her mother's arms, feeling extremely cold.
Although she knew that these were troubled times these days, she worked hard to help the Li family have enough to eat.
But now that I have truly witnessed such a tragic incident, I understand the true meaning of the word "troubled times".
I would rather be a dog in prosperous times than a person in troubled times.
She subconsciously leaned against her mother's thumping chest. Tao Hongying lowered her head and saw her daughter grabbing her hair and looking unhappy, so she quickly patted her to comfort her.
Old Mrs. Li heard the noise and whispered.
“The child is young and her soul is not yet stable. If you take her to see any excitement, turn your back quickly.”
Tao Hongying sneered, wishing she could stuff her daughter back into her stomach.
Those people probably knew that what they were doing was not a good deal. After a while, without any more lobbying, they jumped on the carriage and left quickly.
Old Mrs. Li blew her pipe twice and ordered, "Invite the children to come back, hook up the car, and let's go!"
The young and old of the Li family were all busy. Li Laosi suddenly asked, "Where is Jia Xi and Jia An?"
“We were still under the tree over there just now!”
Li Jiaren raised his legs and went to look for it, but unfortunately there were still two boys anywhere!
Everyone in the Li family was anxious and looked around to shout.
The same children who robbed the fish stew last night pointed to the carriage that was running away and reminded them, "They were pulled into the carriage!"
The faces of everyone in the Li family changed.
Li Laosi quickly unloaded the cart, took the bow and arrows he used for hunting on his back, and ran away on the donkey pulling the cart.
Li Lao Er, Li Lao San and others also want to chase, Mrs. Li shouted loudly.
“Take the hatchet and sickle! I would rather see blood than **** the child back!”
Three boys, Li Jiaren, Li Jiayi and Li Jiahuan, even pulled the guy out from under the car and chased after him desperately.
Mrs. Li was worried and called Zhao Yuru, "Third daughter-in-law, look after the fourth daughter-in-law and Fu Niu'er!"
Then, she also chased after him.
Ren Yazi's carriage slowed down after passing the mountain bend. Just when he was happy that the harvest was good, Li Laosi rode a donkey to catch up.
The man escorting the cart couldn't help but laugh, "The donkey rider doesn't want to compete with our good horse in terms of leg strength."
As a result, before his words could reach the ground, a long feathered arrow hit his cheek and was nailed into the shaft of the chariot.
"Stop! If you don't stop, I'll shoot you to death!" Li Laosi drew his bow with a long arrow in his hand, and pointed it at the man driving the car while running.
The man cherished his life, and he hesitated for a moment before he ran closer.
He got off the donkey, put his hands on the carriage board and struggled, and the carriage fell to the ground with a roar!
The two men were startled and jumped aside in a hurry.
The horse pulling the cart fell sideways and also whined.
“Boy, you are looking for death!” The two big men were angry and pulled out the long knives at their waists and were about to step forward.
At this time, Li Lao Er and Li Lao San also arrived with three boys.
They rushed forward brandishing hatchets and shouting loudly.
“Fourth child, mother said she is not afraid of blood, she must get her child back!”
Li Laosi's eyes turned red when he heard this, and he kicked open the carriage door.
The children inside had been smashed into a ball, and two of them had their hands and feet tied and their mouths gagged. It was Li Jiaxi and Li Jiaan!
When they saw the family members, the two boys were crying until they had runny noses and tears, and they were whining and yelling.
The two men were also anxious and stepped forward to confront the Li family, refusing to let them save people.
At this moment, Mrs. Li arrived. She was relieved when she saw that her grandson was still alive.
“Two good men, our children are playful and accidentally got into your carriage. You are doing this business to make money, and you don’t want to get into trouble, right?
As long as you let our children go, we will go our separate ways. Otherwise, we will try our best to save your life! "
Li Lao Er and the others raised their sharp hatchets and sickles, and Li Lao Si also bent his bow and aimed an arrow at one of them.
In fact, it was easy for Ren Yazi to capture two children. After all, it was a business without capital.
How could I have imagined that this kid's family would be so united and brave?
The two of them looked at each other, and both hesitated.
“Since it’s a misunderstanding, get your children out quickly, we’re on our way!”
Li Lao Si did not put down his bow and arrow. Li Lao Er stepped forward and pulled the two nephews out. He quickly untied the rope and tore off the rag from his mouth.
The two children cried at the top of their lungs, but Mrs. Li gave them a slap in the face and immediately stopped talking.
Li Laosi saw his family take more than ten steps back, then he put away his bow and arrows, fought with both hands, and climbed over the carriage again.
One of the men looked at it enthusiastically and couldn't help but test it.
“Brother, you are so weak, why don’t you do business with us..."
Li Laosi refused to pay attention to them and strode back. The man looked bad, but he finally got into the carriage and started on his way again.
It wasn’t until the carriage disappeared that there was no shadow left, that the Li family breathed a sigh of relief.
“Hurry back, Hongying and the others are the only ones left to look after the luggage.”
Old Mrs. Li urged, and everyone realized that all the men in the family had arrived.
It was too dangerous to leave only the woman, so Li Laosi rode the donkey and ran back.
Good things don’t work, bad things work!
At this moment, next to the Li family’s luggage cart, the wheelbarrow containing grain bags was empty and overturned on the ground.
Tao Hongying held her child and Zhao Yuru closely guarded the donkey cart.
Zhao Yuru is holding a stick, while Wu Cuihua is hiding under the donkey cart.
“Anzi’s father... Where is Anzi, have you found him?”
Tao Hongying, who has always been lively and cheerful, also shed tears now.
Even the infant Jiayin tried his best to stretch his neck and look out, fearing that his cute and naughty brother would be snatched away.
Li Laosi responded quickly, "Found them. Jia'an and Jiaxi have been found. They are behind them and they will be back soon."
Zhao Yuru also started to cry, "It's good to find it. Wow, our food has been robbed! As soon as you left, those people came to grab the food bag. Hongying was pushed, and I couldn't stop it..."
