He won, he returned with another great victory.
The gongs and drums filled the entire capital as firecrackers roared in unison.
He rode his big horse through the streets, and I recognized him at a glance.
It's him, it's him …
I stood in the crowd and tightly covered my mouth. Tears continuously rolled down from my eyes. There were people who looked at me strangely from time to time. It was just that I didn't care at all.
Yes, I don't care, I don't care at all.
However, I still tightly covered my mouth. I was afraid … I'm afraid I'll open my mouth... I'm afraid that when I open my mouth, I won't be able to resist shouting out: "Son, I'm your mother! I'm your mother!"
Yes, that great general riding on a big horse, he is my son, my son born in October.
But I can't yell, and I can't let him know.
I could only silently stand in the crowd and sneak a glance at him. I stood quietly by the roadside just like that as the crowd around me slowly dispersed, leaving me alone in the end. At that moment, I felt that I didn't have any strength left. I sat limply on the ground. I couldn't tell if I was happy or upset. That feeling …
It was the same feeling as when that man did not hesitate to push me out to sell.
During that year, he repeatedly failed to pass the examinations. It was unknown what happened to the business of his family, which fell dramatically, and eventually lost his entire family's fortune. His father-in-law died of anger on the spot, his mother-in-law also returned home, and all the servants in his family ran away, leaving me, that man, and our two children behind …
I also thought about going back to my parents' home, but … But what family do I have to go back to?
After getting married, I completely cut off all contact with my family. Furthermore, I never contacted them again. In the past, he would also go for a walk during New Year's Day, but I have never been there before. After that, his home gradually became difficult, and he no longer had that thought. Furthermore, after failing to pass for a long time, he no longer had any more face, so naturally, he was even more unwilling to move closer.
I just didn't expect that a man who was so hungry could be so scary. He actually wanted to sell me out.
Yes, I'm his wife, the proper wife, and... And I still have his baby in my belly...
I cried and begged him not to sell me. When I had children, I could go to someone else's house and be a servant. I could earn money to support my children, but he didn't even bother to look at me. At that moment, I suddenly became exceptionally calm. I knew that there was nothing I could do to change that. I cried and begged him loudly. No matter what, I must raise these two children well.
I've helped him give birth to two children in six or seven years, and there's one in his belly...
I couldn't bear to part with the two children that I had risked my life to give birth to. I wanted to take another look at them, but I never had the chance to do so again.
After six or seven months of pregnancy and a long journey, as expected, I was born prematurely.
The baby was only two hands old, and he didn't even have time to look at the world before his heart stopped beating, and for a moment I thought I was dead too.
But if a man bought me for money, how could he let me die like this? In the end, even I didn't know how much I drank or how long I slept for. When I woke up in a daze, I saw that person staring at me with disgust and said, "Hmph, consider yourself lucky. I originally planned to sell you to a brothel. You're lucky this time!"
Kiln!
Although our family boasts of being a scholar and a scholar, we, the ladies, never set foot outside our family gates. After marrying into our husband's family, we even spent most of our time in the back yard, and rarely even went to the front yard, but I still know where the brothels are. And that's what I heard from that man's mouth...
After the first beautiful scene, the man finally revealed his true face. He was not a refined and refined gentleman at all. He was simply a pervert who spent his days in those fireworks lands. He even had a reputation of being a gentleman! At that time, she found out that there was actually such a dirty place that was especially used by men to play with women!
As for her …
She was covered in cold sweat, not knowing if she should be glad or worried.
Fortunately, he didn't know what was going on. What he was worried about was that if he wasn't allowed to go to that place, then where would he be taken by these people? She did not believe that these people would have any kind intentions. If they were truly kind-hearted, they would definitely not easily push people into that kind of fire pit.
For the next few days, she lived in a clean room with people serving her three meals a day. She ate with care and care; even when she was her first child, she had not been treated like this. At that time, the Fu Clan still hadn't fallen into defeat. They were well-off, and could be considered to be rich families in that area. Since he gave them a grandson, their family was extremely happy. Even the man who didn't give them any face had a proud smile on his face. That's right, he smiled complacently. He was proud that he had a successor now, so he didn't have to worry about breaking the joss stick anymore.
However, even then, he had never eaten such a good thing or even used such a good thing.
I'm very worried about this kind of treatment …
However, he couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the heavens finally couldn't bear to see me suffer like this and came to save me?
Alright, at that time, I was still too young. It was easy for me to think of unrealistic things randomly. Especially when I was in despair, I would think of the heavens and think of the heavens as an eye-opener.
But in the end, these things were all illusory and ethereal …
In the end, the heavens did not save me. I was sent to a mysterious place with a group of people, and then we were interrogated and selected by special people.
I don't know what the purpose of such an examination and selection is, but I still try very hard to cooperate.
I don't know why, but I have a thought in my mind. If I am chosen, I will be able to leave this sea of fire. If I am not, then maybe … Thinking of the sinister warning from a human, I felt a sense of fear …
There were about twenty of them, and I was not the youngest or prettiest of them all. Although I always thought I looked good when I was young, after six or seven years and having three children, I was no longer the young man I once was.
It's a good thing that I know how to read and write. In the end …
Apparently, those people didn't expect that there would be someone who knew how to use words. Thus, I was chosen as I wished.
We'll just have to bring them away together. As for where we are going to go, I don't know, neither do they know. We can only silently wait for the fate that awaits us. Other than me, the other three came voluntarily. I also slowly got the news from them that we were chosen to be a wet nurse.
Yes, nurse.
As a wet nurse, I must have just given birth to a baby. No wonder that person said I was lucky.
Yeah, that makes me really lucky. During the journey, I only had six or seven months in my stomach. At least two more months before the birth of the baby, so I became the person who just had the baby. No wonder I ate so much during those days. Actually, I should have noticed this a long time ago. After all, I was a person who had two children, and now that I think about it, those people really do eat breast milk, but …
Nanny...
Hmm, thinking about it, he also seemed to have a pretty good appearance.
At least it's better than selling it to a brothel. After knowing the truth, I gradually relaxed.
But soon, I realized that the wet nurse only needs one person, but we have a total of four people here. At that time, only one person will be left, and the other three will all be sent back.
After learning of this matter, I immediately lost my cool.
No, I cannot be sent back. If I am sent back, then the one waiting for me must be the brothel mentioned by Teeth, so … Thus, at that moment, she had already made up her mind. No matter what, I must stay … Compared to me, the other three came voluntarily. Their families didn't force them, it was only because they had a child and they had to find a wet nurse to give them enough money that they came here to give it a try. Therefore, the four of them would only choose one or two people to stay, while the other three would be eliminated. From their point of view, it was a very normal thing, and they did not have any other thoughts as they waited obediently.
But I can't. I can't sit still.
In my heart, I silently told myself that the one left behind must be me, not the others.
If they were to be sent back, they would at most be sent back to their own homes. But I was different, I was sold, and if I were to be sent back, I would definitely be sold off immediately. I saw this as a chance given me by God. Since the heavens have given me such an opportunity, then I must seize it …
Very quickly, the other three wet nurses started to get sick and have diarrhea without anyone noticing …
When we finally arrived at the place our master had agreed upon, the other three were already thin and sallow. I ate well and slept soundly along the way.
As expected, I was left behind, and the three of them were naturally sent back. Before they left, I even had a meal with them, since we were all working together along the way, I hope that everyone will be alright.
In their hearts, they were also unspeakably grateful towards me …
However, they would never know that the reason why they were sick and had diarrhea was not because of the soil and water, or because their health wasn't good, but because … Hehe, I am someone who has two children after all. The most important thing is that I know how to read and write. Ever since I was young, my favorite thing is to stay in my grandfather's study room.
I know very well what can make you feel dizzy and want to vomit, what can make you feel weak day by day …
And on the way, over the mountains, although we spent most of our time in the carriage, I still had a chance to find what I wanted.
