Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World

   The two said they were going to get married, and the big stone in Wan's heart fell, and he was very happy all day. When she looked up, she saw Bao Lu sitting sullenly on the side, as if she had infinite thoughts.

  Wan hilariously stepped forward and carried the person to the bed, and asked softly, "Did you have a quarrel with Brother Jingyun? I see that you have been a little unhappy, and you haven't eaten much for dinner."

  Li Baolu looked up at her grandmother and asked, "Grandmother, why do we have so much money to come to Qin's house? Can't we live by ourselves, just you and me."

Wan Shi felt a pain in his heart when he heard this, looked at Li Baolu with sour eyes, opened his mouth, and finally just pressed her to his chest and whispered: "Silly child, grandmother is reluctant to leave you, but this is helpless. , being able to marry Gu Jingyun and get the protection of the Qin family is the best result. You will understand when you grow up. "

   "But I want to know now," Li Baolu said stubbornly: "Grandmother, I don't want to leave you. Let's tell Uncle Qin, take the money and go back for yourself. We won't be with the second uncle either."

  Wan smiled bitterly, "If it is possible, no matter how hard or tired your grandmother is, she will be willing to raise you to grow up, but no!"

  Shi Wan hesitated for a while and said, "You may not understand what I said, but since you want to listen, grandma will tell you to listen to it. You should remember it first, and you will understand when you grow up."

  The Qin family and the Gu family are both big families, so it's not a bad thing to let Baolu get in touch with some sophistication in advance.

   "We are exiled sinners. One charge is for one head of the household. Only after three generations can we be freed from our sins, and we can move out of the sin village where we are now, but we cannot leave Qiongzhou Mansion without the permission of the imperial court."

"When your grandfather was there, he was the head of our family. Originally, the next head of the family should be your father. Your second uncle depends on your father to survive, but it's a pity..." Wan sighed in disappointment and continued: "So not only you, but also me. Without your second uncle, taxes and labor must be paid to the court through him, and our rights and obligations can only be obtained through your second uncle."

"Even if we and your second uncle don't commit the river water, we only need to pay the silver taels when we pay taxes and labor, and our grandparents and grandchildren will not be able to survive in the sin village." Wan sighed: "Children, in addition to the aborigines and some unethical people in Qiongzhou Prefecture, The merchants who are not here are all exiled sinners and their descendants, and although some of these people have been wronged here like your grandfather, they are too few."

"Their nature is bad, let alone living in a place of exile where they will die without a fight? Our grandparents and grandchildren are too weak, let alone a few more thieves or ruffians in the family after we move out, no matter how many we have Assets will also be looted.”

  There is one more thing that the Wan family didn't tell Li Baolu, their grandparents really wanted to file a bill, and they couldn't take the money with them, and Li Hong was not a fool.

   She was overwhelmed with grief at that time, so when Li Hong mentioned it, she gave him the key to the house, because he was her son!

  Although he was lazy and pretentious, in her opinion, these were not problems that could not be corrected, so she trusted him and relied on him at that time. Who knew that his heart was so cruel?

   The money she took out for Baolu's dowry was the private money her husband specially gave her.

Li Bo has always felt guilty about his wife following him to the land of exile to suffer and suffer, so every time he goes to the doctor, he withholds a part of the money for Wan's private house, and every time he accumulates a certain amount, he exchanges it for her with large ingots of silver, which is easy to hide. Some.

   Anyway, only he knows how much money he can get for each visit, and he and his wife have always managed the money at home. He is not worried that his son and daughter-in-law know that he has left private property to Wan.

Li Bo's move was just in case. After all, no matter how filial his son was, he would have his own family. Sometimes it was inevitable that he would not be able to take care of the Wan family. The foundation of Baolu's survival.

  Li Hong didn't know that her mother had such a large amount of property, otherwise she would definitely not let her take Baolu out.

Wan gave the whole ingot to Qin Xinfang as Baolu's dowry, but the broken silver was put in a purse and handed to Baolu, she said, "I originally wanted to give it to you tomorrow, but since I talked about it today, I will I'll give it to you together. Although the Qin family is good, you are a child bride, and there are times when it's inconvenient to speak. You can hide these pieces of silver, and maybe they will be used in the future. "

  Li Baolu stared blankly at the purse in her hand. She didn't expect that it would be so difficult to survive in this place of exile, nor did she expect her grandmother to endure so much pressure.

She stuffed the purse into Wan Shi's arms with red eyes, looked at her with wet eyes and said, "Grandmother, take it back and buy meat to eat, you have to watch Baolu grow up in a healthy way, and come to see me often. , otherwise I will be sad."

   She knew that Wan's health was not good, otherwise she would not have sent her away in such a hurry.

Wan Shi was about to refuse with a smile, when she lowered her head and met Li Baolu's tearful eyes, she was startled, her mouth moved slightly, and finally caught the purse, "Good boy, will grandma be half with you? "

  Li Baolu was about to shake her head, and Mrs. Wan smiled and said, "If you don't want it, then grandmother doesn't want it either. I'll give you Uncle Qin as your dowry tomorrow."

  Li Baolu didn't shake her head.

Wan ripped open the purse, poured out half of the broken silver from it, and put it in a random bag. The purse was still handed over to Li Baolu for storage, "Don't spend this money easily, you have to use it when it's urgent, you know?" Worried about the kid taking money to buy snacks or something.

  Li Baolu was not a real child, so she nodded earnestly.

After solving the doubts in her heart, Li Baolu was a child again, and she fell asleep almost as soon as she lay down. Mrs Wan leaned on the bed to look at her and couldn't help touching her cheek. It was Kanger's flesh and blood, just now. Just like when Kang Er was a child, he looked at her with wet eyes.

  Wan felt that everything he did was worth it.

  Wan's family was in a hurry to go home. Even if the Qin family wanted to hold a big engagement ceremony, it was too late, so Qin Xinfang had to use the money to go to the village's butcher Wang to buy half a pig for a banquet and invite the whole village to eat.

   Now everyone knows that Qin Xinfang bought a child bride for his nephew, and she is a child bride after a criminal.

   Everyone sneered, and someone asked Qin Xinfang rudely, "Is Mr. Qin planning to take root in Qiongzhou for the rest of his life? To find a daughter-in-law for his little nephew in such a place."

   Qin Xinfang said with a smile: "I think Qiongzhou Mansion is very good, with beautiful scenery and warm climate, it is not bad to live here for a long time."

  The man sneered and said, "You officials like to talk about these nonsense. If you hadn't been exiled here, I don't believe you would still come."

  Qin Xinfang glanced at him slowly, and said, "If there is enough time, I will really come. After all, I am different from Your Excellency. I live in the same place for a long time, and it is inevitable that I yearn for green mountains and green waters."

   "You scold me!" The man slapped the table and jumped angrily.

   Everyone knows that he is a bandit in the green mountains and green waters!

   Qin Xinfang cupped his hands and smiled: "Don't dare, don't dare!"

   Gu Jingyun saw that there was a lot of noise over there, as if he was about to fight, he immediately snorted coldly, stepped forward and said, "The chief is coming, won't you go meet me, uncle?"

The pretentious childish voice successfully stopped an impending brawl. The former bandit boss Zhang Dachui thought of the friendly relationship between Qin Xinfang and the rior, so he had no choice but to swallow his anger and sat on the chair viciously staring at Qin. Xinfang, turned his head to stare at the short, stout boy again.

   Gu Jingyun didn't seem to see his gaze, turned around and walked slowly to his fiancee, Li Baolu, who was a head shorter than him.

   Qin Xinfang had already got up with a smile and went to greet the largest official in the area, Mr. Lichang.

  Li Baolu slowly closed her open mouth, turned her head and asked Gu Jingyun, "Everyone doesn't seem to be very friendly."

  Gu Jingyun nodded expressionlessly, "There are only nineteen families here, and their relationship with each other is not very good."

   "Then why do you want to invite them to a banquet?" Li Baolu asked with wide eyes. Usually, shouldn't this kind of happy event be invited to a close family or relative?

   Gu Jingyun asked Li Baolu in surprise, "Can we not invite them?"

   In his limited memory, it seems that everyone in the village invites everyone who has a big event together. Even during the Chinese New Year, everyone has to get together for a meal. Although there will always be quarrels and other emergencies, but...

  Gu Jingyun stared wide-eyed and asked, "Isn't this a custom? Isn't that the case in your sin village?"

   Li Baolu said helplessly with her shoulders on her shoulders: "Who told you that this is a custom? Who would formulate such a strange custom? Our sin village is not like this."

   Gu Jingyun asked, "Which village are you in?"

   "Five!" Li Baolu taught her to memorize the address before coming here, in case she couldn't find it when she had something to look for in the future. In fact, their address was really easy to memorize.

   I don't know who named it. All the villages where the exiled prisoners live in Qiongzhou Mansion are called Sin Villages. They are ranked by numbers, and it is said that they have been ranked nineteen now.

   And the descendants of the prisoners after the third generation can choose to leave Sin Village to live in Xiangshan Village, where all the descendants of the prisoners live in exile, and they are also arranged in numbers.

   Of course, they can also choose to stay where they are. After the sinners in the entire sin village have reached the third generation, the sin village can be renamed.

The yamen does not have strict restrictions on these people, and they can also apply to change the name of other villages with the head of the district, but I don’t know if everyone is lazy or they are used to such names. .

   So they just need to memorize the numbers, so they don't have to worry about finding their way home.

   Gu Jingyun, for example, if he goes outside to play and forgets the way home, he just needs to pull a random one to ask where the village is, it's simple and easy to remember.

   Gu Jingyun frowned and said, "Perhaps the customs of each village are different?"

   "Maybe." Li Baolu couldn't think of any other reason besides accepting this explanation.

  Li Baolu looked at the table of the gobbling children, poked at Gu Jingyun and asked, "Where are your good friends? Shall we go talk to them?"

   "No," Gu Jingyun said blankly: "You just need to talk to me, don't care about other children."

   "What are you two doing here?" He Zipei turned around and saw the two children whispering together, so he stepped forward with a smile: "Let's go to dinner soon, we will meet in a while."
