When it came to the most heartbreaking part, the old man couldn't stop crying.
By the side, the matron also began wiping away her tears.
That person was also intelligent and looked really handsome. Because of these reasons, she and her mother-in-law loved this Little Girl a lot.
He had originally wanted to find a good family for her, but who would've thought that she would be sold to the Chen family at a low price just because she had just grown up a little.
Afterwards, she and her boss wanted to go to the Chen family to redeem the Chen family. However, the other party had only said one sentence, and if the contract was passed on, then there would be no way for them to go back on their words. The Chen family was powerful, how could they care about it? Furthermore, Little Girl was sold cheaply by their younger brother. With a written contract, even if she felt uncomfortable in her heart as an aunt, she could only sigh helplessly.
But now, the Little Girl had returned. It was a pity that she was no longer a virgin.
Chen Nianran's tears gushed out like beads from a broken string. Her head rubbed against the mama's chest, smelling the warmth that belonged to the mama, and she kept calling out "Grandmother" again and again.
"Mm …" "Mhmm …" The old lady kept agreeing. "Mother, it's good that Little Girl is back. If she continues to cry like this, it'll be a good thing that she'll cry until she's done with it."
Finished, she sincerely pulled on Chen Nianran's hand, "Little Girl, although you said that our family is split up. But in any case, I can help you a bit. If anything goes wrong in the future, just tell me. Even if I have to go all out, I have to protect you well. "
When Chen Nianran heard this, his thoughts raced, one must know, that she was currently facing the situation of selling second things. If she had this lady and this mama backing her up, she would …
He sized up his aunt in front of him. She had a face full of affection, and her facial features were also straight. Unlike that wicked woman, her eyes, in particular, were even more unfocused and spicy.
Thinking about it, this lady in the family was indeed a capable person. When she thought of this, she kneeled down and kowtowed with all her might. "Aunty, you have to save Siya ah …"
When the aunt heard this, her expression immediately changed.
The mama quickly pulled her into her embrace. "What do you have to say to mama? This time, no matter what happens, we can't let the old man do as he pleases." "Little girl, don't be afraid. You still have your mama and your aunt."
Chen Nianran's heart was filled with emotions. For her previous self, and also for herself. She didn't expect that if her biological parents weren't good enough, this aunt and mama would still have some kinship.
She wiped her tears away and then spoke about her departure from the mansion in grief.
"Auntie, Momo, this is the situation." After we were gone, my mother dragged me into the alley. "There's someone called Seventh Madame over there …"
The moment Chen Guan heard the name "Seven Sisters," she slapped her face on the bed in anger. This pair of evil creatures … Little Girl, don't even mention it, I know what that Seventh Madame did for a living the best. "
Just then, a child came over to call Chen Nianran home.
"Aunt took a deep breath and comforted Chen Nianran by patting the back of her hand," Little Girl, you go home for now, this will save Aunt a lot of trouble. "I will make the decision for you. Don't worry, as long as aunty is here, no one will be able to make the decision for you."
Chen Nianran knew that with his Aunt's support, things would probably be much easier. At this moment, she politely bid farewell to the mama and the missus, and went home with the children who had come to call him.
The little girl that called out to her was her Fifth Sister. She was an eleven-year-old child, but she looked to be slightly shorter than her peers. His face was also extremely yellow. That hair looked even more like a pile of straw.
When the little girl saw her, she timidly called out to her elder sister.
When the two of them went back home, the Fifth girl reached out her hand timidly and grabbed it, "Sis, you're not leaving this time are you?" I still hope that you are at home, so Sixth Sister and I can't starve. "
The small hand that he was holding was so thin that it made people suspect that it was a thin bone. The cocoon in his palm made Chen Nianran's nose sour. This was the child of a poor family.
"Mmm, I won't be leaving this time." and take care of the girls. "
When the fifth girl heard that, she immediately grabbed her hand in joy, "Really? Sis, this is great. With one here, we could drink a little. Hehe, big sis is so nice. "
As she spoke, she came over. From the child's words, Chen Nianran roughly understood some of the things his previous self did at home.
So it turned out that although his previous self had been born into a poor family, he had grown up to be sensible and courteous. He was also very disapproving of his parents' actions. Thus, in private, he would secretly hide some copper coins outside while he worked.
Occasionally, she would buy bundles of sugar for her sisters to dispel their greed. Although those days were rare, in the hearts of these sisters, her status as a sister was extremely great.
As for food, if there really wasn't anything to eat, then his previous self would still think of ways to make some wild vegetable buns or game soup. Anyway, there were days when she was at home, and her two little sisters hadn't starved to death.
After getting the information, Chen Nianran facepalmed once again. It was as if her burden had increased by two girls.
When the two siblings reached home, Chen Nianran saw that the room was filled with malnourished people, and her heart was sweating profusely.
Who would have thought that there would be so many people in this family! The eldest and second brother were married. His eldest daughter-in-law was pregnant, and stood beside Chen Ning with her stomach puffed up. Those towering cheekbones and the tail of her eyes made Chen Nianran feel that this woman was probably the same kind of snobbish eyes as Chen Ning.
"Oh! Little Four, you're here! Dinner is starting! Dinner is starting!" Chen Ning passionately stepped forward and held her hand, beckoning for the meal to start.
The others talked for a while with her sister, the eldest sister. It had to be said that in this large family of more than ten people, only the two girls liked him a little.
One of them was Zhou Zheng, a few years old who was a little fat. This opened Chen Nianran's eyes.
After that kid came to her house, he only glanced sideways before raising his head to sit at the head of the hall.
F * * k, everyone has their own seat in the seat of honor when they eat. However, in this family, there was only an eight year old child who sat at the top seat!
A peasant family member could still grow so white and fat, and his clothes were also clean and tidy. From this, it could be imagined how good this kid's treatment at home was.
A woman quickly served a bowl of rice. Chen Nianran watched as the youngest Sixth Sister scooped up rice for everyone.
On the table, there was a bowl of stir-fried cabbage without oil, a few pickled vegetables, and a large bowl of clear water porridge. It could be seen that the porridge was made from some coarse rice stalks and some wild vegetables.
He could even see people with porridge. How could he be hungry after eating such a meal? Chen Nianran finally understood why the two girls were so thin and yellow!
Chen Nianran did not use her chopsticks, but watched as her family drank the soup. The child opposite her had not eaten yet, just like her.
At this moment, Xiao Budian raised his chin and looked at her with disdain. Until Chen Ning brought a bowl of white rice onto the table, covered with two pieces of even and fat meat, Chen Nianran finally understood why this whole family was looking so pale, while this leader of this family would actually grow up to be white and fat …
Chen Ning saw that Chen Nianran was looking at this child, and laughed awkwardly on the spot. "Oh Little Girl, your little brother here has been talked about too much by Teacher, he's a smart child. So our whole family is gritting their teeth to make him read. This, from the time I entered the academy at the age of four, I have always been praised by the Elementary Scholar! "
When Chen Nianzu heard this, he immediately raised his chin, "Mister praised me yesterday, saying that I read well, and my writing is not bad."
Chen Nianran was puzzled, based on her appearance, could he really write a good character? However, she only held this question in her heart and didn't ask it.
When Chen Ning saw this child, she happily prodded him, "What son, hurry up and tell your sister, let her know that you are a good student."
The child was chewing on a large piece of meat, greasing it with oil.
At the other big table, especially the two girls with Chen Nianran, they were all looking at the foam at the corner of his mouth, their throats constantly rolling …
"Gulp …" After the child swallowed down the rice and meat, he proudly swept his gaze across everyone on the table. "In the beginning, people were naturally kind-hearted …"
When Chen Nianran heard this, why was she still reciting the Three Character Classic after reading for so many years?
"This is the Three Character Classic. Can you recite something else?" Chen Nianran did not drink the soup. Ye Zichen looked at the Eldest and Second Sister-in-Law, then looked at the piece of meat in their bowls.
His wife, who was pregnant, held her stomach and kept swallowing her saliva.
"Analects?" No, sir did not. " When the child heard, he was stunned, but soon became furious. He looked at Chen Nianran sideways and said, "What do you know, Mister Qing Yin said to learn it well and to write it well, if you can't write it well, you can't learn it later."
With that said, Chen Nianran went silent. She had studied emotions for four years and was still learning this most basic of the Three Character Classic of Enlightenment. No wonder they said they wrote well amongst a bunch of brats and read well. After four years, she had at least learned a little bit.
Actually, it would be hard to tell how it was written. After all, this family didn't know how to read or write. Good or bad, wasn't it because of this kid's words?
was even more disappointed in the Chen Ning now that she knew that this brat was just an idiot.
He stopped asking questions and obediently drank his food.
Because their family was too poor and had too many people, Chen Nianran slept with the two girls that night.
To be honest, looking at the bed covered in grass and mud, she really couldn't lie down. Unfortunately, that was the condition at home. He couldn't just go outside and sleep for the night, right?
"Sis, come up. This blanket is for you." The five-year-old Little Sister was very happy as she continuously pulled on her rotten blanket that could even blow through the wind.
