MTL - The Reborn Lady is Farming-Chapter 14 spread

   That night, the two teams separated. Uncle Liu chased to the south. The other party had a carriage. Although he was dragged by a group of children, he was still much faster than Uncle Liu who only walked on two legs.

Uncle Liu obviously knew this. He only took a day off and only rested for more than an hour before getting up and running after him. Uncle Liu Wu, who followed Uncle Liu, was almost exhausted, but seeing his cousin like this, he didn't dare to ask for a rest, so he could only hold on with his teeth. At noon on the third day, he caught up with the donkey cart of the Yellow Tooth.

   His daughter Erniang and youngest son Liu Xing were among the twenty-three children.

  Uncle Liu's lips were dry and he could hardly speak. He could only kneel and kowtow in front of the Yellow Tooth Man, and said in a hoarse voice, "Master Huang, please be merciful, I want to redeem my children."

Huang Yaren looked at Liu Sanshu in surprise, and then looked at his haggard expression, he could hardly even kneel, he knew that he was catching up overnight, Huang Yaren frowned and said, "Who are your sons and daughters? Let's just say, this redemption money can't be less than the price I bought them before, you know, they also cost me a lot of money for food and drink these two days."

Seeing that the third cousin was speechless, Uncle Liu hurriedly said: "It's certain, it's certain, it's just Mr. Huang, our family is poor, and the children under them are ignorant, so he secretly brought his younger brothers and sisters out to sell. You have spent most of the money, you see, can you be tolerant of one or two."

When Liu Wushu said this, the Huangya people knew who they were talking about. Among the people he bought, there were three pairs of brothers and sisters, but only the pair in Qili Township was sold by a nine-year-old brother. He was still amazed. He just felt that the child was so bold that he dared to sell his younger brother and sister alone, but he only bought people, but he didn't care what happened next.

  The Yellow Fang thought for a moment, and said, "No matter how little it is, it can't be less than twelve taels, otherwise I will lose this trip."

  Uncle Liu's face was full of sorrow, and he didn't know if the family could make up twelve taels of silver, but seeing that the man with yellow teeth was impatient, for fear that he would get angry and leave, he eagerly went to see his third cousin.

  Uncle Liu gritted his teeth and said, "Twelve taels are only twelve taels. Master Huang might as well stay for a day. My family will soon catch up with money."

The yellow-toothed people saw that they had nothing, and knew that most of them were chasing after the news. How could the country people get so much money all at once, and they had to go and borrow it. After thinking about it, today He couldn't go very far, so he agreed to stay in the town in front of him and wait.

   Uncle Liu and Uncle Liu breathed a sigh of relief, and Uncle Liu took the opportunity to ask, "Master Huang, I don't know if I can see my daughter and son. They were suddenly sold, I'm afraid I'm panicking."

   The Yellowfang looked at him with a frown.

Uncle Liu hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Mr. Huang, I don't dare to run, my home is in Linshan Village, Qili Township, as long as you ask, you will know, not to mention that you have so many people guarding you, your little hands and feet are weak, and you are carrying two The children can't run far, I just want to see them."

  The yellow-toothed man frowned and agreed, and asked someone to lift the curtain and find Liu Erniang and Liu Xing from the donkey cart.

Liu Erniang and Liu Xing were thrown to the Yellow Tooth by their brother. They were terrified for three days in a row. They were suddenly taken off the donkey cart and wrapped in a ball. They looked at them in horror, but saw their father kneeling on the ground, full of grievance and fear. It suddenly turned into a howl, and the two children threw themselves into their father's arms.

  Uncle Liu was also full of tears while holding a pair of children. The fear and anger of the past few days made this man kneel and cry in the middle of the road.

   Even the hard-hearted yellow-toothed man could not help but turn his head and sigh.

  The originally quiet children in the car secretly lifted the curtain of the car to see, all kinds of envy and jealousy in their eyes, and they could only cry silently.

When their father and son had enough crying, the group went to the nearest town. Uncle Liu hadn't rested much for two days and three nights. When he found the child, he was in a state of wandering spirits, but his hands were tight. Holding a pair of children tightly, Liu Erniang and Liu Xing were also frightened, and they didn't feel any pain in their hands, and cuddled tightly beside their father.

   Until Mu Shi and Liu Dazhuang came with the money, Liu Sanshu breathed a sigh of relief.

  Mu Shi paid twelve taels of silver to redeem them. He stayed in the town for one night, and only hired a donkey cart to drive back the next day.

   Aunt Liu saw that her children had returned safely, and hugged them and cried.

After Liu Yong bought the book and pen, ink, paper and inkstone, he only had five or two and a half coins left. The remaining six and a half coins were taken out by Mu Shi, and one or two and a half coins were collected by each family in the clan. .

  Uncle Liu promised: "I will pay back all the money you owe as soon as possible."

  The patriarch looked at Mu Shi, the big head was on his side, and each family in the clan had a few hundred wen, which was not bad.

  Mu Shi said: "I'm not in a hurry with the money here, the third cousin will take it slowly in the future."

  Uncle Liu forced a smile.

  People have been rescued, so what will Liu Yong do?

   In the end, he was his own son, and he was the eldest son whom he had always loved. Although Liu Sanshu and his wife hated and resented him, they couldn't be ruthless. Shu Wanniang and Mu Shi also said that he was still just a child, and he would gradually learn to be good.

  Uncle Liu could only beat him, and then he was not allowed to go to learn to read again. He took the books he bought to the bookstore and returned them, but the pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc. could not be returned.

  Niang Shu had a soft heart, so she asked Mu Shi to buy that set of pen, ink, paper and inkstone for three taels of silver, so that Uncle Liu’s family also relaxed a bit.

Liu Yong's actions this time have had a great impact on the patriarch and the elders in the clan. Although he was not well-behaved and smart before, his temperament is not bad. He usually takes care of his younger brothers and sisters, but he was born like this after learning to read. His delusions came, the patriarch believed that it was the book that made him change his temperament.

   If the rich and noble people can provide him with reading, it is fine, but they are not, he has delusions again, and this has changed his temperament like a demon.

In this case, it is better not to read and write in the first place, and to stay on your own for the rest of your life. It is worse than thinking about things that do not belong to you. Therefore, the patriarch stipulated that children in the clan are not allowed to read with Shu Wanniang, and even warned the parents, If you don't have the ability to study the imperial examinations for your children, then don't send them to read and write easily, so as not to have delusions.

   Therefore, even if Liu Lang and the others were Mu Yangling's cousins, they still wanted to learn to read, and they did not dare to go to Shu Wanniang for advice.

   Mu Yangling dare not say that the patriarch must be wrong, but this precaution means that the Liu family will never be able to come forward.

She is a child who grew up under the red flag. Her education and life experience since childhood told her that knowledge can change her destiny. Although it is not necessarily a bright side, her choices will be broader, which is better than being shackled to the land and being slaughtered by others. .

  Liu Lang is already eleven years old, and he may get married and start a business soon. He is a very smart child. Mu Yangling hopes that he will have one more choice after reading and calculating.

Mu Yangling said to Liu Lang: "When you come to me, I will take you to Shankou, where the soil is very loose, where I will teach you to read, and you can still cook pork dishes there. My brother is there. study there."

   Liu Lang's eyes were bright as stars, "Then it's settled, I'll find you tomorrow."

   "I'm afraid it won't work tomorrow. Tomorrow my father is going to the county seat, and I want to go with me too."
