Mother-in-law Han did not react when she saw her daughter, and misunderstood her, thinking that she was reluctant to sell her son.

Also, which mother in the world is willing to sell her child, especially her only son?!

However, the eldest daughter has to be willing even if she doesn’t want to.

First, as Mrs. Han said, her precious son needs money and food.

Secondly, they are on the road to escape from famine, and multiple children are just a burden.

Nowadays, it is difficult to meet people who buy male babies. After all, even on the way to escape famine, most of the people who are sold are women and female babies.

So when people buy people, they basically just buy women and girls.

As for the male baby, it's not that Ren Yazi doesn't want to buy it, but that a family will not sell a male child easily even if the family is ruined or desperate.

But this time, Ren Yazi, who came to select people for the escape team, actually directly said that he wanted to buy a boy between four and ten years old.

And Mrs. Han’s cheap grandson, He Xiaobao, the eldest daughter’s only son, is exactly six years old this year and fully meets the requirements.

Not only did that person specifically ask for a male baby, but the price he offered was quite low.

A qualified male child can be sold for two guan.

Of course, copper coins are not easy to use on the road to escape.

If the person selling the child doesn't want copper coins, he can exchange them for grain, which is enough for a bushel of coarse grain.

Save some food, it's enough for one person for half a month.

Mrs. Han had already inquired about the price, calculated it in secret, and then ran to discuss it with her precious son Tian Yaozong.

So, at noon that day, Tian Yaozong complained that he was "sick".

Mrs. Han ran to wipe her tears with her eldest daughter, He Tianshi, and kept saying the same thing over and over again -

"Big girl, Lao He's family is not prosperous. Your brother is the only one in the family. Don't dare to break it!"

"Your father and I are both old and can no longer have children. If your brother has another problem, our family will become a destitute family."

"...I know you are married, but even if you are married, you still need support from your mother's family. If you have a younger brother at home, the men in your family will not dare to bully you!"

"Don't worry, your father and I will remember your kindness and we will never treat you badly!"

Tian Da Niu, now He Tian, ​​has been brainwashed since she was a child, and her views have long been distorted by the Tian family.

He favors sons over daughters and dedicates everything to his natal family. He would rather starve his own son than provide for his natal family...

These are daily operations.

Nowadays, there is a famine in their hometown, and there has been a wave of banditry and military disasters. There is really no way to survive, so the people in Tianjiawa went out together to escape the famine.

As a married daughter, He Tian was able to stay with her mother's family. On the surface, it seemed that her mother's family really gave He Tian shelter.

In fact?

Haha, the He Tian family's grain reserves were tightly controlled by Mrs. Han, and the barking donkey raised by the He family became Tian Yaozong's exclusive car.

Even the thick clothes of He Tian and his son He Xiaobao were taken away by Mrs. Han and distributed to her daughter-in-law and grandson!

The most important thing is that He Tian is capable. She is a woman, but she is stronger than men (especially Tian Yaozong), and she can do as much work as the three of them.

Taking her with you means bringing a strong laborer who brings his own dry food but is reluctant to eat enough.

Mother-in-law Han is the most scheming, she has already knocked out the bones of her four daughters and sucked out their marrow!

At the beginning, she married off her other three daughters far away in exchange for high betrothal gifts, but she only married her eldest daughter closer to her husband. She just wanted her obedient and capable eldest daughter to help her parents' family.

Of course, Mrs. Han's little calculations were rattling in her heart, but she was coaxing Mr. He Tian like this——

"Big girl, my father and mother care about you the most. Of the four girls, only you married to Hejia Village, which is closest to home."

"He Erniu is a good person. The bride price he gave you was lower than that of your other three sisters, but your mother still married you to him. Why, not for you?"

"When you go to the He family, there is no mother-in-law above you and no sister-in-law below. You can become the head of the family as soon as you enter the door. How happy will you be?"

"Also, Erniu is capable and strong, and he can also box. During his spare time, he can go to the city's escort agency to help others. He can also save a lot of money throughout the year!"

"My parents have considered everything for you. You can't forget your roots. You can't forget your brother."

"Your brother is pitiful. He has fallen into the hands of incompetent parents and can't even afford to go to school..."

After chattering away nonsense, Mrs. Han seems to be an extremely good mother who cares about her daughter.

Mrs. He Tian was really moved and expressed her heart to her family.

After getting married, there was no mother-in-law, no sister-in-law, not even a close elder. He Tian became the mistress of the He family.

I go back to my parents' house every now and then, and every time I go back I pack a lot of things.

Mrs. Han would also flatter her, praising He Tian every day for being a filial daughter and a good sister who loved her younger brother.

The neighbors around her were envious but couldn't help but secretly complain: He Daniu is not a filial person. She often uses money from her husband's family to supplement her parents' family, and she has kept the whole family well!

The Tian family is so poor. They are all at the bottom of the family in Tianjiawa.

But he built three large tile-roofed houses by relying on the sale of his daughter, oh no, the betrothal gifts of his three daughters, and the subsidies from his eldest daughter.

Tian Yaozong was actually able to go to town to study.

It's a pity that Tian Yaozong is an inexperienced person. After studying for several years and spending more than ten thousand dollars on repairs, books and other expenses, he can only recognize a few words.

Want to take the imperial examination?

dream!

He's not even qualified to be a bookkeeper for someone!

However, Mrs. Han refused to admit that her son was stupid. She said that her family was in trouble and she really couldn't afford it, so--

Pooh!

Not everyone is He Tianshi and Tian Da Niu.

Some villagers did not believe what Mrs. Han said.

Difficulties at home?

Huh, if the Tian family is really in trouble, will they raise Tian Yaozong to be fat and fat in vain?

Also, Tian Yaozong did not go to school, but he wore a brand-new gown and frequently went to town to drink with others.

It's called a poetry meeting or a small gathering, but in reality it's just a place of fun and debauchery.

However, He Tian was a fool. He believed his mother's words, tightened his belt, and lost a child, but he still wanted to work as an ox and a horse for his mother's family and his own brother.

It was He Erniu who discovered the problem and did not go out as a escort for a year, but stayed at home to look after his wife. This made He Tian calm down a little.

He Tian also gave birth to his only son, He Xiaobao, in this year.

For the sake of his son, He Erniu was a little more tolerant towards his wife.

Because he has a son, He Erniu is also more motivated - I want to make money, I want to provide for my son to study, build him a new house, and get a wife!

So, He Erniu continued to go out as a escort, working hard to make money.

He Erniu was not completely at ease with He Tian, ​​but he thought that when a woman has her own child, even if she doesn't feel sorry for her husband, she will feel sorry for the piece of meat that fell from her body.

However, He Erniu still underestimated the power of senior Voldemort.

However, because of He Erniu's previous tantrum, He Tian was frightened.

It's not that she has stopped supporting her family, but that she has changed from being flamboyant in the past to being sneaky and has learned to disguise herself.

When He Erniu was at home, He Tian pretended to be nice and was willing to give his son eggs, meat, refined grains, and make new clothes.

He Erniu mistakenly believed that his wife had really changed for the better.

Sometimes, He Erniu feels a little sorry and feels that he should not lose his temper with his wife.

As a woman, it’s normal to miss your mother’s family.

If He Tian had to undergo incision with his mother's family after getting married, and still ignore his mother, father, and younger brother, He Erniu would also be murmuring in his heart.

Of course, "guilt" only lasts for a moment, and human nature is selfish.

He Erniu saw that He Tian was willing to live a down-to-earth life instead of thinking about her parents' family every day, so he felt relieved about her.

He gave all the money he earned to his wife.

As a result, trouble occurred!

In the winter of this year, the imperial court wanted to build river embankments, so it conscripted labor.

According to regulations, He Erniu, the only adult male in the family, had to do hard labor.

However, building river embankments is too painful, and it is free of charge.

With this time, He Erniu could go to Fucheng for a escort trip, and earn twice as much money as he did back and forth.

In previous years, He Erniu would spend money to deal with this situation, and this year is no exception.

However, when He Erniu asked He Tian to take the money, He Tian's eyes dodged and his words were hesitant.

Finally, being pushed to the point of panic by He Erniu, He Tian said in tears, "No money!"
