Fu Dalang opened his mouth, his eyes were fixed on the dust on the ground, he didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at her.

Seeing that he was silent, Li Baolu also fell silent. She didn't know how to get along with this cousin, she didn't know his character, and she didn't even know that he existed the night before.

In terms of blood only, he and Li Jun are the same, but she knows nothing about him, and never even thinks of him.

Outsiders may think that she is younger than him, and it is natural for her to have this cousin, but she knows it is not.

She has memories of her previous life, her mind is much more mature than that of a child, and she has never thought about her mother's family, which is her negligence and her fault.

No matter what kind of grievances the ancestors have, at least he is the mother's nephew, with the mother's personality, she will not vent her anger, nor will she let her nephew survive so hard.

Sensing Li Baolu's gaze on him, Fu Dalang couldn't help but clenched his fists tightly and kept his mouth shut.

Li Baolu hesitated for a moment, then stood up and said, "Think about it, if you don't want to leave Qiongzhou, then move to Xiangshan Village, I'll have someone build a house for you, and then open a few acres of wasteland, if you can Buy a shop in the county town... In fact, I still recommend you to leave. In Qiongzhou, interested people will know that you have gone out to Xiangshan Village as soon as they inquire. After leaving Qiongzhou, as long as you don't say it, no one will know that you are a criminal... "

Fame is very important in later generations, let alone here?

She didn't want him to live with that kind of discrimination all his life.

Li Baolu left space for him to consider. From the perspective of others, this matter may not be a choice, but Fu Dalang is different. He grew up alone and has a deep-rooted dependence on Qiongzhou and this place. If he wants to leave here, he will definitely feel anxious.

Fu Dalang looked up at Li Baolu's leaving back, his eyes were red, and the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed.

He is not as sentimental as Li Baolu imagined, in his world there is only food and hunger, of course he knows what choice is best for him.

But the greater the benefit, the greater the risk.

Through the hole in the wall, he saw that the young man who gave him a sense of crisis was surrounded by several old people, and a group of people were sitting on stools chatting.

Even though they were far away, he could hear what they were saying.

They were talking about how miserable his life was, how lonely he was, and how they squeezed out a morsel of food for him in the midst of all difficulties, so that he could live through winter after winter...

Fu Dalang laughed at himself, and spread his rough and cracked palms in front of his eyes. He could still guess what they would say next. They would say that the Fu family had a hard time when they first came here, and that the thatched cottage was still their ancestors. Helped build together...

He would talk about how his grandparents could not let his aunt get married, and planned to sell his eldest aunt to outsiders in order to save money for his father to marry a wife...

Fu Dalang got up suddenly, walked to the door and looked at Li Baolu who was standing in the yard thinking, "You..."

Li Baolu turned to look at him.

Fu Dalang heard the sound of the heart beating violently in his chest, and his blood was rushing up, making his face flush, "Come here, I have something to tell you."

Li Baolu was slightly surprised, but Fu Dalang plucked up his courage, turned around and staggered back to the stove and squatted down. Instead of letting her know the embellished "truth" of things from others, it is better to let him tell, if she arrives at that time Still willing to take him away...

Fu Dalang was only two years old when his father died, and his grandparents had died long ago. Naturally, it was impossible to get any "truth" from them, but his mother was still there, taking him until he was eight years old. He was often bullied by the villagers, and they would not avoid him when they insulted and talked about him, so he could naturally hear a lot about his ancestors.

Hearing and thinking about some things a lot, naturally deduces the truth of the matter.

Fu Dalang knew that he had an aunt who was married to the fifth village of Sin Village, and he also knew that she had died long ago, leaving behind only a younger cousin.

His mother kept talking about him when he was young, saying that the Fu family must have done too many crimes in the past, otherwise everyone would have died, and in the end there were only two bloodlines left, and I don't know if they can grow up alive...

There is very little communication between the sin villages, and they don't say they are hostile to each other, but they are also very guarded and will not contact easily.

In Sin Village, there are only three kinds of people who will show smiling faces to accompany them. One is officials like village chiefs;

Fu Dalang knew that his cousin was in Wucun, but he never thought of going to look for her. Why would he look for her? He couldn't take care of her even if he found her.

And if she is living well, he will not expect her to help him, because in a certain sense, they have enmity. And this hatred should be inherited from his grandparents and mother.

Although Fu Waizu usually values ​​his son, he is also very good to his daughter. He will also teach his daughter how to read and write, and he will give his daughter what the son has to eat, but that is when there is no conflict of interest.

Once confronted, Grandfather Fu is still very patriarchal.

Because the grandson is the fourth generation, he can live in the village, so Grandfather Fu is very strict about the selection of his daughter-in-law. .

In this way, when the grandchildren move out of the sin village in the future, they can be with their cousins, so that they can form a group and help each other.

No matter where you are, there is always a fight, and if there is a fight, there must be allies to help each other. On this point, Fu Waizu must not be short-sighted.

And the daughter-in-law he carefully selected for his son was a girl from Xiangshan Village, Aunt Fu. She was the fifth generation, and her father was the generation who moved out of Sin Village. However, her family's life in Xiangshan Village is not very good.

Although the tax has been reduced, Xiangshan Village is even more xenophobic than Sin Village, and their family's life in it is very difficult.

And her tragedy is that she was born and raised in Xiangshan Village, but she has to marry back to Sin Village. Just listening to her makes her shudder, so she doesn't want to marry even if she dies.

Her father had no choice but to promise to give her more dowry, otherwise he would have nothing to lose if his daughter really committed suicide.

As the dowry for the daughter increased, the dowry required by the Fu family naturally increased.

Originally, their family wanted a lot of betrothal gifts, but if they increased, they would not be able to get together even if they sold Fu Grandfather.

But he really can't help it. Anyone in Xiangshan Village who loves his daughter will not marry his daughter back to the sin village and continue to be a sinner. Mostly because of internal consumption, marrying in Xiangshan Village, no matter how bad they are, they can sell themselves as slaves, which is better than marrying in Sin Village.

So even though the dowry gift given by the Fu family was very high, only Aunt Fu was found after searching.

Grandfather Fu could only grit his teeth and try to find a way to make money, and the Fu family was already poor and white, and the dowry promised before had already been prepared by the family, so naturally there was no more money to be squeezed out, so Grandfather Fu could only focus on his daughter.

At that time, Mrs. Fu was already nineteen, and her younger brother was about to propose marriage, but her parents were still suppressing her marriage and resolutely refused to agree to propose marriage to her.

And Mrs. Fu also felt that there was not much difference between marrying and being in her natal family, except that the servants had changed, so she was not in a hurry to marry.

But this does not mean that she is willing to obey all the arrangements of her parents, so conflicts broke out between father and daughter very quickly. In the final analysis, Grandfather Fu was too cruel.

The head of the village at that time was the father of the head of the current village, and the old head of the village was not as law-abiding and timid as the current head of the village.

In the three acres of land in this sin village, the old head is the sky. He has power, connections, and a little more courage. It is too easy to do some secret business.

And Fu's is the goods he fancy.

She looks good, the most important thing is that she can read and write, and she is already old, unlike those twelve or thirteen-year-old girls who look like sticks...

In Sin Village, it is very easy to issue a death certificate for a girl who is not the first offender, and the people above rarely check it carefully.

And it's very simple to hide her identity outside. Those people in the Goulan courtyard have their own connections, and there are so many children abducted by human traffickers outside. Isn't there an accident?

As long as she doesn't take the initiative to mention it, no one will know that she is from Sin Village, so he pays attention to your love and my willingness in this business.

Grandfather Fu was willing, but Mrs. Fu was not. The old village chief didn't want to do bad things to her, so giving them time to think about it was also time for Grandfather Fu to persuade Mrs. Fu, but Mrs. Fu ran away and soon married Li Kang.

After that, the Fu family and the Fu family almost broke up, and she almost never returned to her natal family except when she came back during the Chinese New Year.

Fu Dalang heard the story more than once from his mother and the villagers. His mother resented his aunt for being unfilial and disrespectful, so she got married and had no children for many years; Also died unexpectedly...

When he was young, he would resent his aunt along with his mother, until he grew up and knew where his grandfather was going to send his aunt, and then he became silent, and he didn't dare to see the cousin who lost his parents just like him.

After his father died, the eldest aunt actually helped his family until she had an accident, but his mother and the eldest aunt were really not friendly before.

The reason his mother was able to marry in was because the Li family gave him a handsome dowry, but it was still far from the price of selling his daughter.

Grandfather Fu used all the money as a betrothal gift, while his grandfather withheld most of the money and gave his mother a small amount as a dowry.

So his mother felt that it was her aunt who blamed her for having such a small dowry, and the aunt also complained that their family asked for too much dowry, which made her almost betrayed.

The relationship between the sister-in-law was very bad. If his mother hadn't suddenly left him and remarried, and he had heard a lot of words belittling his grandparents and his mother while wandering around the village, maybe he would have hated his eldest aunt for the rest of his life just like his mother.

Of course he didn't want his cousin to know about these things that were not good for him, but the villagers liked to talk about it, and even if he didn't say it today, she would still know it from others.

He didn't want to lose hope after gaining hope, and despair again, so it's better to open up and tell her now, if she can't accept it, then treat it as if the two have nothing to do with each other, and if she can accept it, then it's his luck.

Fu Dalang, who lived at the bottom of the three villages since he was a child and needs to watch people's faces, knows the changes in people's hearts best. He dare not bet on Li Baolu's rage after being concealed, so he chooses to confess.
