In the darkness, Gui Chun sat up and was silent.

The Gui family only has a few acres of land. Gui Chongyang knows it, and Guichun naturally knows it. In the future, even if the Gui family purchases new land, either Gui Chongyang or Gui Wu, it will be the private property of the two, and it will not be related to Guichun.

Gui Chongyang's words were frank and quick, but Gui Chun had to face this problem directly.

But Guichun is different from other people in the Gui family. He has no skill and no talent for studying. In addition, he is the eldest son and grandson. What he thinks is to respect the elders and support the elderly.

"It's not something that can be decided at the moment. Don't worry, Brother Chun thinks slowly. If Brother Chun wants to do something, just say directly that with Uncle Wu and I, I will always try my best to achieve Brother Chun's wish." Gui Chongyang said.

Gui Chun nodded and said "Yes", not thinking that Gui Chongyang was very angry.

In Gui Chun's opinion, he and Mei Duo have many difficulties, and are mostly due to fate but no destiny; but for Gui Chongyang, it is nothing.

No words all night.

The next day, Gui Chongyang went to the old house with everyone as usual.

Yang Wu was still the same as before, following Yang Jinzhu, and then followed Gui Chongyang to do some errands with Gui Chongyang.

But unlike in the past, Yang Wu was quite excited and said, "My father said that he would also ask me to go to a private school next month... and said, "I told me to learn more with my cousin."

Gui Chongyang was happy for his friends: "This is a good thing. It would be fine if there is no private school in the village. It would be a pity if there is a village school."

Yang Wu whispered: "My father and Uncle Mei and others praised you in private, saying that you are like a child in the city, sensible and polite, and are much better than us. Everyone knows that you brought a cart of books back, which is more books than Mei's family, so you brought the fragrance of books."

Gui Chongyang was quite surprised. Gui Wu stood in front of him. No deeds in Gui Chongyang fell into the eyes of the villagers. If everyone could mention it, it was just that he had just returned to Mujia Village to confront the Mei father and son. But that time he should have the impression of "sharp teeth and sharp mouths". Where did this "sensible and wise gift" start? Is it because he greeted everyone politely every day and gave them mung bean soup as introduced by Gui Chun, calling "uncle", "uncle", "bride" and so on, which are "sensible and wise gifts"?

Inexplicably becoming a "child of other people's family", Gui Chongyang did not feel happy, but instead lamented the simplicity of the country people.

"However, my father said that I was old and only asked me to read for one year. Just recognize the words completely. If I am stupid at that time, my cousin will teach me." Yang Wu's eyebrows and eyes were full of joy and satisfaction, and he was not dissatisfied or wronged because he had only one year deadline.

With such a cheerful boy, Gui Chongyang's mood also became brighter and he nodded and said, "Okay, I will study with my cousin at that time."

After the two got together and finished speaking, Gui Chongyang noticed something was wrong, looked around and said, "Why haven't you seen Xiao Ba yet? It's normal that you have arrived at this time?"

Yang Wu also said strangely: "Yes, Uncle Mei has arrived early, why haven't he come yet?"

The two friends looked at each other, hesitating whether to go out to find Mei Xiaoba when they saw Mei Xiaoba coming in with her head drooping, her eyes flushed.

"My mother, are you crying?" Yang Wu quipped when he saw Mei Xiaoba's half-dead look.

Gui Chongyang directly thought of Mei Xiaoba's stepmother, worried that Mei Xiaoba would be punished, and his heart sank: "But what's wrong with the family?"

Mei Xiaoba shook her head and said, "It's okay at home. It's not that I'm crying for myself, I feel uncomfortable."

Yang Wu said anxiously: "What's so uncomfortable? You'll tell me when the solution is, why are you crying?"

Mei Xiaoba sniffed and said, "The black girl is going to get married, and her uncle and aunt want to send her to the town as a child bride."

If a good family gets a serious marriage, how can they raise a child bride? It is either that they have physical defects or that their families are poor and cannot afford the betrothal gifts, they can only use rations to exchange for their daughter-in-law during the famine.

The Li family is not upright. Whether it is selling Li Taoer directly or giving it to a child bride, it must be for money.

Who is the one who finds the countryside to find "child brides"? You should know that there are no fewer poor families in the town than in the village. Because there is no land, some families in the town are not as stable as those in the village.

"What does Li Tao'er mean? She originally intended to be a child bride, but she was still unwilling to go?" Gui Chongyang said.

Mei Xiaoba was stunned, raised her head and said, "What's the point of a black girl? She doesn't want to help her or not, but she has to listen to her uncle or not?"

Gui Chongyang remembered Gui Wu's words and thought he should ask Li Taoer first.

Others may regard Li Taoer as their child, but Gui Chongyang, who is also twelve years old, does not regard Li Taoer as their child.

At the age of twelve, he would have his own thoughts and decisions. Gui Chongyang got this conclusion from himself.

"When will she come out to cut pig grass? I want to ask him, if she doesn't want to be a child bride, I will ask Uncle Wu to help her." Gui Chongyang thought about it and felt that he should meet Li Taoer.

Mei Xiaoba's eyes suddenly lit up and she said, "She will be driven out to work after lunch. Her aunt is afraid that she will stay and eat. The child bride will have a good life. She is not happy. Brother Chongyang will ask Uncle Guiwu to help her."

Yang Wu also nodded from the side and said, "Anyway, my mother said before that you can't be a child bride if you are a child. You will be ordered by your in-laws for the rest of your life."

*

There was nothing to say all morning, and until noon, Gui Chongyang and others followed behind Grandma Gui, prepared all the lunches of the helpers, and then quietly walked out.

It was still at the foot of the back mountain. When Gui Chongyang arrived, I saw Li Taoer walking forward in the distance carrying a half-person-high bamboo basket.

"Black girl!" Mei Xiaoba greeted excitedly.

Li Taoer immediately turned around, with cold eyes on her dark face. Her arms moved, and the sickle turned from her side to her, which was obviously a defensive posture.

Mei Xiaoba was unresolved and rushed forward and said, "Let me tell Brother Chongyang that you don't want to be a child bride. Brother Chongyang will ask Uncle Gui Wu to make the decision for you and will not let your uncle and aunt take you there."

Gui Chongyang stared at Li Taoer's hand. Who knew whether this girl was abused and grew up and her temperament would be violent? Fortunately, when Mei Xiaoba stepped forward, Li Taoer's hand holding the sickle was hanging down.

Gui Chongyang picked on the corner of his mouth. Should this girl be careful whether she and Yang Wu are the only ones?

Li Taoer had already heard Mei Xiaoba's words and said without hesitation: "You want to go!"

Mei Xiaoba was stunned.

Gui Chongyang narrowed his eyes. Could it be that this girl was afraid of being beaten and scolded at the Li family. Any way out would be regarded as a life-saving straw? But she didn't think about it. With the character of the Li family, how could she send her to a good place?

"Do you know why the other party wants to look for a child bride?" Gui Chongyang said.

Li Tao'er's arms holding the sickle tensed again.

Gui Chongyang endured it, but his face did not change.

After a while, Li Taoer said, "There is something ugly in the Hong family and no one is married."

This time, Gui Chongyang was shocked.

Why is Li Facai related to the Hong family again?

"The Hong family is nominally marrying a wife for their son, but in fact, his son is a Tianyan. Mr. Hong is a pervert. Both of his daughters-in-laws were dirty. One of them was hanged after a strong sexual intercourse. The one who was not hanged was beaten to death by Mrs. Hong." Gui Chongyang did not modify it, and said to the truth: "Do you still want to go to such a family? This family is not a good person. If you go in as a child bride and your family receives a betrothal gift, you may not be able to live or die in the future!"

There was no sign of joy or anger on Li Tao'er's face, but her eyes became darker.

Mei Xiaoba and Yang Wu were both shocked.

Mei Xiaoba quickly waved her hand and said, "Don't go, don't go, if you are beaten to death, I will cry. I'd better ask Brother Chongyang for help. Uncle Gui Wu is so awesome, and everyone in the village is afraid of him."

Yang Wu couldn't help but persuade: "Yes, don't marry randomly just to leave the Li family. The Li family will not take your life. The Hong family sounds terrifying!"

Both faces were concerned, and they had nothing to do with the thoughts of men and women, but just kind nature.

Li Taoer looked at Mei Xiaoba, then looked at Yang Wu again, and finally her eyes fell on Gui Chongyang's face.

Gui Chongyang was afraid that she had no way out, so he decided casually, so he ignored Yang Wu and Mei Xiaoba and said, "I will ask Uncle Wu to find someone to buy you from the Li family. Don't worry, I won't let you be a slave, I just let you come out of the Li family. Then you can first place you in the town to see if you learn a craft or something else, and then discuss it slowly."

Although Gui Chongyang is a man, he doesn't think that women should be locked up at home. Not to mention others, he just said that the women in the Gui family originally had no skills in Li and Gui's third grandmother. After her husband died, she could only remarry and continue to rely on others. Yang and Mei, one is good at cooking and the other is good at embroidery. It cannot be said that they are rich and powerful, but they can barely make a living.

Mei Xiaoba and Yang Wu were only thinking about asking Gui Chongyang to help Li Taoer, but they didn't expect that he would have such a plan. The eyes of him were full of respect.

Li Taoer shook her head gently and insisted: "I'm not afraid of marrying!"
