The Reliance Village was located in the northeast, with its back against the south mountain. As a result, it was named.

Although the villagers' days were short, they had never sold out their children before.

It was already late autumn, and a cold wind was blowing on Tian Yuqiao's palm-sized face. It was like a small knife that was about to cut her in half.

However, what made her most uncomfortable was not the cold autumn wind, but the so-called relatives by her side.

Seeing that the village chief had arrived, Tian Yuqiao's lips curled up into a faint smile. The result was that her face twitched in pain.

That damnable Gao Clan actually took advantage of the time they were tying her up and pinched her body a few times. Hmph, I will remember this grudge.

"Mom, where's my sister?"

Yutang saw née Wang lying on the ground, but did not discover her sister. She hurried ran over, crying, to help née Wang up.

At this moment, Lady Wang's eyes were lifeless, as if she had been shocked silly. No matter what her son asked her, she wouldn't answer.

"Yo, what happened to this River Wife? "I say, elder sister, what you're doing is not right. Our backer has always been a simple and honest villager. You being cruel to your daughter-in-law and granddaughter like this, aren't you afraid of the heavens' retribution?"

The one who spoke was a rather stout old lady who was slightly younger than Madame Li. This was Aunt Ju Hua, and she was related to the Tian Family in many ways.

"I say, Tian Ju Hua, don't just stand there and talk. I'm going to discipline this junior. What does that have to do with you?" My daughter-in-law is disrespectful to me, so what if I teach her a lesson? "Besides, those two bastards from her family are not filial, especially that kid from Yutang who beat up his aunt. Since he has the time to watch the show, he might as well take care of that old hen who doesn't know how to lay eggs."

Aunt chrysanthemum was so angry that her face turned red. Lady Li was actually peeling their family's scars in front of everyone in the village.

Lady Gao hurriedly covered her fat buttocks and even deliberately twisted her waist that was as thick as a bucket. She bared her teeth and cried out, "That's not right. That little Mourning Yutang guy actually dares to crash into me!"

Yutang, who was hugging his mother, did not know what to do. His voice turned hoarse from crying and he could not say a word.

"Bang! Bang!" A knocking sound came from the woodshed. Who knew how much effort Tian Yuqiao had put in to make this sound?

Everyone's gaze moved over to the Tian Family's firewood house. When Lady Li saw this, she hurriedly put on a fake smile and began to drive them out, "Alright, big guys, what should we do now? Stop standing here and quickly go home to cook."

Aunt chrysanthemum did not care about her, directly rushing into the vegetable patch.

Relying on his great strength, he knocked aside the two dilapidated firewood doors and saw Tian Yuqiao inside with his hands tied behind his back and a rag stuffed in his mouth.

The old man's heart ached so much that he began to cry, while Madame Li intended to cover it up. The Village Chief was not so easily fooled. He waved his hand and the women behind him went over to help him carry them out.

Poor Tian Yuqiao. The foreign object in his mouth had finally been removed. He could feel fresh air seeping into his nose and breathing. How wonderful!

Tian Yuqiao was carried away. The moment the rope on her was untied, she held onto the Village Head's calf weakly and began to cry, "Village Head Grandpa, save, save me! "Milk them, kill me and sell me to a phthisic."

After saying these words, she fainted. She was hungry!

When the surrounding people saw this, they became even more displeased with Madame Li and the others. Tian Yuqiao successfully showed a wave of sympathy.

Aunt Ju Hua was someone who could not bear to see a child suffer. She picked up a big broom and was about to fight with Lady Li.

"Wait a minute, all of you be quiet. How is it proper for you to be making such a ruckus?" Yutang, hurry and invite Doctor Lin to let your sister and your mother have a look. "

Although Yutang was crying and gasping for breath, he still heard the Village Head's words. He hastily wiped away his tears and snot, then spread his legs and ran towards Doctor Lin's house at the foot of the mountain.

Fortunately, the distance was close. Otherwise, just these two runs alone would have been enough for the little guy to choke.

"I say, village chief, you can't just hire a doctor. Our family doesn't have the free money to pay the bill for the medicine for these two people."

Madame Li had a fawning expression, but her tone was filled with sarcasm.

Aunt Ju Hua raised her broom again and stared at Madame Li with an aggressive look. She was so frightened that she didn't dare to continue speaking.

"Hmph, good you, Madame Li. You should discipline your wife and grandchildren, but you can't put a person in your place to deal with. You are simply disregarding human life."

Wang Heng's face was cold as he assumed the posture of a village chief.

Madame Li was naturally afraid of the Village Chief, but when she thought of those twenty taels of silver, her heart immediately steeled.

"Village Chief, look at this, our family is about to fall out. So what if I'm selling my granddaughter?"

"Pfft, I, this old lady, have truly experienced it this time. There's also someone as shameless as you. You really have lost face for our village." "Who doesn't know what's going on? When your second brother goes to join the army, you treat them like mother and son. But now, you're trying to sell such a good Qiao'er to a phthisic ghost for joy."

The one who spoke was the Tian Family's neighbor, Widow Li. She had lost her husband two years ago, and had left a legacy son for her.

"Stop with your nonsense, do you have anything to do with my family? You're a tough man yourself, and you've killed your husband. I live next door to you, and I still feel like I should. " Madame Li scolded.

Tian Yuqiao's head ached from the argument and slowly woke up. However, in order not to get involved, she chose to continue pretending to be unconscious.

Yutang soon pulled over an old man with a white beard. The old man was so dragged by him that he staggered.

"Yutang, slow down a bit. I, Grandpa Lin, can't keep up with you."

"Grandpa Lin, we're almost there. My sister and mother are waiting for you to save them. I'll carry your medicine chest for you."

The two families lived very close to each other, and only a few houses away from each other, Doctor Lin soon arrived.

Aunt Chrysanthemum and another woman carried Lady Wang into the run-down house they had always lived in. This house was not much better than the woodshed.

Tian Yuqiao also felt her body lighten before being placed on a rather flat bed.

The smell of her pig dung matched the musty smell in the room, stimulating her sense of smell.

Dr. Lin was also a little speechless from the smell of Tian Yuqiao's body. She hurriedly ran through her pulse before getting someone to scrub her and change into patched and patched clothes.

"Why is this child so dirty?"

"This I know, Doctor Lin. Their families are not kind people. They sent such a young child to clean up the pigsty, but in the end, an old female pig that was about to give birth was in a bad mood and ended up pushing the child over."

"Ahh, what a sin. This child has injuries on his head. I'll write a prescription and let her eat it for a few days to see." Doctor Lin pinched his beard and said.
