She thought that the beggar must be uneducated based on his previous words and deeds... He had been in the market for a long time and had learned the skill of "breathing fragrance". However, judging from the beggar's neither humble nor arrogant demeanor and those two sentences, her judgment mistaken.
"It's easy to talk about the rude collision. I thought you were young and lonely, and you were imprisoned for six full days. I thought you had learned a lesson, so I let it go. But, where do you start from saying that I will avenge your family? ?" Shen Tang pretended to be at a loss.
"Xiaomin's family was harmed by the Zhang family..." Beggar said this, paused, with tears in his eyes, "If it weren't for Mr. Shen, Xiaomin would have died without seeing the retribution for his family... Therefore, in Xiaomin In the eyes of the people, Lord Shen is the benefactor of Xiaomin's family."
Shen Tang softened his expression: "Don't cry, talk slowly."
She was not a compassionate person, nor would she comfort a crying little girl, but Shen Tang couldn't bear to let a poor child cry to her. So she looked at the clerk and signaled the clerk to get a mat so that the beggar could sit down. Speak slowly.
The beggar has severe frostbite on his feet.
The ankle joints are swollen and the skin is cracked.
The indoor temperature was warmer than outside. The slightest movement of Beggar's body made her feel bone-crushing itching and pain crawling up her body from her feet to her legs. However, Beggar was very tolerant and did not even frown. She endured the pain in her joints. In spite of the pain and stiffness of the limbs, I tried to straighten my spine and make myself look more dignified and decent.
Shen Tang listened to the beggar's story with a gentle expression.
It's also a coincidence.
Shen Tang had seen the case of the Beggar Family. It was the first case of seven local gangsters being tried at Gaotai, and the memory was particularly profound.
Diao, Zhang's steward, falsely accused the widow's son of stealing a fighting cock with "great military exploits" and forced the widow to disembowel the son with a knife to prove her innocence. Then he tortured the widow and flogged her for fifty years on the grounds that the widow had killed her young son. Rice slave girl.
The beggar in front of me should be the only survivor.
Shen Tang looked at the beggar's hands covered with frostbite, and the finger joints were swollen and it was difficult to bend them flexibly. Then thinking about the condition of his feet that he saw that day, he guessed that the beggar had been wandering around to survive for a long time: "But I look at the file, your Grandma Aweng should be still alive?"
Or is this old couple gone too?
Is the beggar really forced to wander when his family is ruined?
Unexpectedly, when she heard the words "Ah Weng Grandma", Beggar's eyes revealed a bone-chilling hatred. She was so excited that she ignored the pain in her hands and clenched them into fists. She tried hard not to lose her composure in front of Shen Jun. But after all, he is still too young.
I can't express my emotions and emotions.
Shen Tang then asked: "Do you have other difficulties?"
Beggar endured the moist mist rolling in his eyes.
His lips were pursed, as if he was in the midst of a battle between heaven and man.
Shen Tang didn't push him, and waited for Beggar to speak on his own.
After a while, I heard Beggar's venomous words squeezed out word by word from his back molars.
Every word is filled with astonishing hatred.
"Even if Mr. Shen beats the little people out, the little people, the little people still have to say something treacherous. The kind-hearted and poisonous little man and woman on the other side are definitely not the little people."
Shen Tang immediately became energetic after hearing this.
Her reaction was not the anger that Beggar thought, but she asked curiously: "What's the secret behind this? Were you kidnapped and trafficked here? Don't be afraid, if that's the case, I will definitely get one for you." justice."
All of a sudden, all kinds of words popped into my mind.
Now it was Beggar's turn to be confused.
She stopped talking, her eyes a little evasive.
The beggar put her hands on her knees and nervously grasped the hem of her coarse cloth skirt - Shen Jun mistakenly thought that she insulted "Aweng Apo" because she was not related by blood to "Aweng Apo", but in fact she was not.
The beggar and them are indeed blood relatives.
After Nao understood this, Shen Tang asked doubtfully: "Then what outrageous things did they do that made you hate them so much?"
The beggar was hanging his head in fear, waiting for the "judgment".
Who would have expected that Shen Tang's response would be so mild.
She suddenly raised her head and looked at Shen Tang, her eyes filled with tears again: "Shen Jun, Shen Jun Mingjian..."
The story here is not complicated.
Someone was indeed being sold, but the person sold was not a beggar but her biological mother, the widow.
The widow's natal family fell into decline before she reached her age, and all their property was sold. The once carefree girl was forced to shoulder the burden of the family and make a living by selling fabrics, embroidery, and copying books for others. Life was poor but Not bad.
Who knows, the sky may bring unexpected events.
One day, on the way home from an outing, I was abducted and knocked unconscious.
When she woke up, she was already far away from her hometown. She was sold at a high price to a father and a brother in a small mountain village as a "sharer" and "wife" to continue the blood of this family. Naturally, the widow refused to give in, so she seized the opportunity to abort her biological father, who is unknown. 's children.
This family often beat and scolded her.
After a stalemate for three years, they sold it.
The next buyer is the beggar's Aweng.
The widow still refused to accept her fate.
However, she was not very clear-headed, and although the beggar's father was stupid, he was not as prone to beating and scolding her as in the previous family. Her parents-in-law were still watching her all the time, and the days went on day by day.
After the widow gradually regained her senses, she gave birth to two children.
The widow couldn't let go of her parents who were worried about her, so she asked a businessman who went to her hometown to do business to help find out the news, but she learned that her parents had died of illness many years ago. She was now a rootless duckweed, and had no choice but to stay in Heyin, so the widow had no choice but to accept her fate.
A few years later, the man became seriously ill while serving and died.
The widow had to work hard to make a living with her two children at a young age, and endured the criticism and curses from her parents-in-law from time to time. The neighbors knew her past from nowhere, and they insulted and ridiculed her whenever they had the chance. Her relatives also felt ashamed of her.
If the widow hadn't known a few words and could enlighten the children in the village, there would have been no place for the widow and her two children.
Shen Tang also knew what happened next.
The widow's son was falsely accused of stealing chickens by Diao, the steward of the Zhang family. The widow was calm, or the emotions she had suppressed for many years completely exploded. She was unconscious and cut open her son's stomach with her own hands. After that, she was flogged and sentenced to pounding rice as a slave girl. She chose to commit suicide within two months. .
Shen Tang listened quietly to the story of blood and tears told by Beggar, and her heart was shaken, but there was one thing that puzzled her - Beggar's hatred for her grandma seemed to exceed that of her enemy's family.
After the widow was sentenced to pounding rice, the beggar, as the only strand of blood, was treated well, but it wasn't too bad, right?
But judging from the appearance of the beggar, she was not doing well.
"The traffickers and the couple who sold my grandma... are my two aunts... aunt, grandma..." Beggar shouted out those two titles with some difficulty, with hatred still surging in his eyes.
It turned out that the widow had nothing to do in the first family for three years and refused to give in no matter how hard she was beaten and scolded, which completely angered the father and brother of that family. They approached the criminal who sold them the "goods" and demanded a refund. If they didn't return the goods, they would pay for it. The officer arrested them.
After much fussing, I had no choice but to agree.
It happened that the stupid son at home did not have a wife, and the widow was tortured for three years and still retained her beauty. This shows how good her natural foundation is, and she was "exchanged" half-heartedly. The three fathers and brothers of the family were happy to have a new wife who could give birth to babies. gone back.
The widow had a very vague impression of the trafficker who captured her. It was also that time when Diao caused trouble and the widow was forced into a desperate situation, she suddenly remembered the true identity and face of her "parents-in-law". The combination of various factors led the widow to perform the act of disemboweling her child. .
What she wanted to prove to the world was not only her innocence that "her son never secretly ate fighting cocks", but also her own innocence.
Beggar lowered his head, his voice a bit erratic and vague: "Actually, Aniang still wants to kill Xiaomin..."
It's just that she's hiding.
Grandma also discovered that she was hiding.
The beggar will never forget the look in her mother's eyes when she found her. Her face was ferocious and twisted. Every time she looked back in her dreams at midnight, she would wake up with sweat. She didn't know much, so she just tried her best to cover her mouth and try not to cry. Killed for making a sound.
Maybe her request really moved her, or maybe she saw her own reflection in her. She held the knife and turned around indifferently, with endless complexity in her eyes.
After that, A Niang was whipped and sentenced to pounding rice to serve her sentence. Beggar once secretly visited her. It was only a few days since the last meeting. In the impression, A Niang always carefully maintained her black hair and smiling eyes. A withered old woman.
His hair is gray, his body is stooped, and his hands are swollen.
In the past, A-Niang lived a delicate and decent life, so that no one could tell her actual age. If she pretended to be unmarried, some people would probably believe her. At this time, A-Niang is so old that no one can recognize her. Both mother and daughter looked at each other with the same dull expression. Holding each other for a long, long time.
The widow told her daughter all her experiences.
This daughter is young but smart and sensible.
When I saw her eyes, I thought of myself.
[I wanted to kill you...]
The beggar trembled after hearing this.
The horror of that day came to mind.
Auntie said in a hoarse old voice: [...but after thinking about it, I let it go. It’s not that I can’t bear it. I just want to see how you struggle in this world. Someone should repay the suffering I have suffered in this half of my life, right?
Bar?】
She gave birth to this daughter well.
But he is also the seed of this dirty family.
She cannot love completely.
It is impossible to hate completely.
She killed several children with her own hands, and the daughter in front of her was the only survivor, the one she had devoted countless efforts to. The beggar saw hatred in her eyes, but there was also love and reluctance. For a moment, he felt embarrassed and ashamed.
.
I don’t know how to face this biological mother.
She couldn't hate her biological mother who had murderous intentions. She wanted to apologize, but it was useless. The thief who deserved the apology the most was the one who relied on Zhang's power and prosperity, and the rest still blamed "Aweng Grandma"
The name - beggar has become the most embarrassing existence.
Mother and daughter sat facing each other for a long time.
Until it was time to meet, Aniang slowly stood up, tried to straighten her body, raised her chin slightly, and was indifferent.
[Forget what happened today, just pretend that I, the sinful woman, never said anything. Even if I did, it would be nonsense.]
At the end of this scene, we met again with the widow's body that was returned - it was covered in spots and had a strong smell.
He is older than the last time we met.
The beggar saw with his own eyes that she was simply wrapped and buried casually in the wilderness. No one came to pay homage to her—including the children whom Aniang had taught enlightenment over the years. They listened to the gossip of adults and thought that this woman was dirty, vile, and vicious. Even they
My parents also gritted their teeth and spoke dirty words.
The so-called "grandma" reluctantly took out a small amount of money from the coffin book, bought a boy who was smart at first glance, changed his surname, wrote a genealogy, and became their precious grandson, and then took out his heart
Feed him with all your heart.
He always kept saying "My old Zhu family has a daughter".
As for the beggar who was really related to them by blood, they were abandoned. At first, they had the patience to give her a bite of food. Within two months, they planned to sell her to an old widower in a village as his wife, and the money from the sale would be given to his grandson.
It will be used for enlightenment in school in the future.
The beggar is luckier than her mother.
She was on guard and escaped halfway.
In order to make a living, she wandered all the way to Fugu City.
Although Fugu City is very poor, it is a "city" after all, and the public security is much better than outside. The beggars are begging for a living while keeping an eye on Zhang's movements from time to time. As the external situation deteriorates, Fugu City's security situation is much better than outside.
Life is getting more and more difficult.
The beggar thought he wouldn't survive the winter.
Until, she waited for Shen Tang.
When she heard the news that the Zhang family was overthrown and Diao was executed, she was sick in the ruined temple and could not get out of bed. After she got better, she was able to go out and do some activities. The high platform had been demolished. She was a little angry that she had not seen that family with her own eyes. His head fell to the ground.
He became very interested in Mr. Shen as he was known to the common people.
But she knew that she was a beggar and he was a county guard, so the possibility of meeting him was very slim. The biggest crisis before her was not to meet Mr. Shen, but to survive.
She has to work hard to survive this winter.
Although Shen Jun sent people to beat gongs and drums everywhere to recruit labor, she was too young and would definitely not be selected.
When I was so worried that I didn't know what to do, I saw Shen Tang.
To be precise, it is the familiar jade ornament worn by Shen Tang on her waist!
One of them she had seen before.
On the head of the Zhang family!
OK, Zhang’s fish slipped through the net!
The beggar weighed the situation, hesitated and decided to take action. He first snatched the jade ornaments to exchange for winter food, then grabbed the face of the man with flowers, and howled a few words to attract the surrounding people, and then he could take the opportunity to escape. But Wan Wan did not expect--
As an ordinary person, she couldn't tell the inscriptions on Shen Tang's waist accessories. As for Kang Shi???
This person has to be polite in life, and he can't be beaten at the first glance!
As a result, all efforts fell short.
When the beggar was caught, he had already thought of various ways to "die together" until the petty official called Shen Tang "Shen Jun".
She was completely dumbfounded
(ˉ▽ˉ;)…
The beggar spent the past few days in anxiety and worry. Not only was he not scolded or beaten, but he was also fed with coarse grains every day, and even had warm water to wash himself and put on new clothes... It was his mother who went there these days. Afterwards, she lived the most peaceful days.
If you can do this for the rest of your life, it won't be a big deal if you are locked up in a woodshed.
Afterwards, she was brought to Jun Shen by a petty official.
Shen Jun also listened gently to her past. When he heard about A Niang's experiences, he didn't show disdain like others. There was pity in his magnanimous eyes that moved her.
Beggar subconsciously straightened his body up straighter.
Finally, Shen Jun spoke.
"so--"
Shen Jun paused for a moment before speaking.
Beggar felt nervous.
Shen Jun motioned for her to relax: "You hope your uncle...ah no, how did those old couple die? If the situation is true, I can avenge your revenge..."
Beggar: “!!!”

The widow’s story has nothing to do with the hot search. Shiitake is not making arbitrary comments or insinuations, let alone trying to gain popularity. It’s just a plot that has been arranged for a long time.
If I insist on talking about the prototype, just think of it as an old lady saying it while dancing in the square.
