Chapter 159: 1 Silver Per Month Is Okay
Chapter 159: 1 Silver Per Month Is Okay
"No need." Bai Tao waved her hand: "I'm not at a disadvantage, just let them do as they please."
Even if they do fight, it won't matter. The people of Taohua Village won't suffer any loss.
Bai Tao didn’t think there was anything wrong with being so biased, because people are biased by nature.
When Bai Dashan heard this, he agreed.
"Yes, auntie, don't worry, they will definitely not suffer any loss."
Bai Tao knew that even if Bai Dafen and the others won the debate today, it would not necessarily change the status and situation of women in this society.
But it’s okay, as they say a drizzle moistens everything silently.
As long as Taohua Village grows stronger, in a society dominated by the strong, the ideas that Taohua Village identifies with will sooner or later replace the previous ideas of inequality.
Bai Dadan, Bai Dafen and others not only won the argument and left happily, but also left an indelible seed in everyone's heart.
That night, many people suffered from insomnia.
Since it is my own problem, why should I suffer that injustice?
"Yes, yes, is that his grandson?!"
"Okay, okay, just say it straight."
Many women who had a bad sleep got up with a tired look on their faces to cook, but they were no longer as timid as before.
When Bai Dadan heard that, he immediately understood what was going on.
Generally, those sold are boys. Once a boy is separated from his family, who knows where he will be sent to or what cruel things he will encounter.
"You, well, you are a good person." The old woman stammered.
I saw a woman with two dirty boys wandering around outside, so I shouted, "Look how many times they've been walking back and forth. What are they trying to do?"
"Who, who is looking for you?" Bai Dabao had just brought fish soup to his daughter-in-law, and when he heard that no one was looking for him, he came out.
No one has ever told them that it is the man who decides whether to have a son or a daughter.
Yao Fanbi came back to his senses from his shock, you found your voice and said angrily: "That's his grandson, he just used you to exchange for money?"
"He, okay, wait a minute."
"Aunt, it was that young woman who found him." Yao Fanbi pointed, with an indescribable look on his face.
"You, you are here to send someone to them."
No matter how poor the family is, as long as they can eat one meal and go hungry the next, they can always grow up safely. But if they are sold, they will be either alive or dead.
You came here early in the morning with the two little girls, but you kept coming back for more and more and still couldn't see the old lady.
The mother-in-law didn't seem to notice that Yao Fanbi was angry. You smiled and said, "He gave the money, so he is no longer his grandson."
"Those are your two grandsons from outside your family. Let him pick one. If he dislikes both, you can give him both."
So, what the Baijiabao caravan said was correct.
"I heard him say yesterday that there is no grandson in the family, which is a pity." The old woman said, and pushed the two boys standing on your right and left back.
When the others heard this, they did not panic, nor did they plan to take the opportunity to search further away to see if they could find something to exchange for supplies with the caravan.
Besides, I hate people who are hygienic.
Bai Dadan frowned and asked, "What does he mean by that?"
Yao Fanbi wanted to say something else but was interrupted by the old woman.
Today, Bai Dadan is leading people to guard the camp gate.
The old woman's body was dirty, and you could vaguely see head lice. If the infection spread to your body, Yao Fanbi would not dare to think about how long it would take for him to listen to the old woman's stories with the villagers.
After saying this, the old woman counted on her fingers and said slowly, "But if he wants both, he will have to pay more."
The old woman nodded, as if it was a matter of course: "Yes. Let him choose. You are all very obedient. See if he likes the eight-year-old or the four-year-old."
Baijiabao is such a big caravan, and those who are both literate and martial naturally know more than these uneducated farmers.
When the old woman saw Bai Dabao coming out, she smiled and took a few steps back, but was quickly stopped by Bai Dabao who raised his hand: "No, no, no, he shouldn't step back. If he has nothing to say, just stand here and talk. You can hear it."
The old woman begged and said all kinds of bad things.
The old woman said: "Yes, but if the old lady dislikes it, just pick one and go. If she wants both, that's fine."
One tael of silver a month, that's less than 17 taels of silver a year. If it's seven or ten years, this...
I was shocked: "He's saying that he's going to give his grandson away?"
Send someone?
Women are even more troubled. What they have heard since childhood is that it is their problem if they cannot give birth to sons, and they are useless.
Bai Dadan quickly called upon a villager who was passing by Yingkou to help call Bai Dabao out.
Bai Dabao was shocked. You pointed at yourself and then at the two aggrieved and frightened boys: "You? You guys?"
Are you trying to steal something?
The old woman nodded: "Yes, yes."
"You also want him to pay seven taels of silver a month, and he only needs to pay one tael of silver a month."
You don't have a daughter-in-law who just gave birth to a child, so you are still strong.
"But the four-year-old is also wrong. He can help with work outside the home, eat less, and save trouble."
"It took several years of bad rice to raise those two little girls in your family. It would be nice if you had more." When she mentioned them, greed flashed across the old woman's face.
It’s because the people in Taohua Village were angry. Even though our lives became harder later, we never thought of selling our children.
"If you want to tell me, although eight years old is old, it is worse to be too old, and to be raised closer."
Bai Dadan's shout immediately frightened the old woman, and the two boys quickly shrank in front of her.
The men thought back to what happened today, feeling angry but also a little suspicious. Could it be that they really didn't give it?
Because there were no women giving birth outside the village last night, the people of Taohua Village decided to stay here for two fewer days.
So, the next morning.
The woman who was beaten and scolded for not being able to give birth to a son felt more and more aggrieved the more she thought about it, and the aggrieved feeling turned into anger.
Seeing that Bai Dadan was willing to listen to you, Xiao Yue also drew his crossbow. The old woman was less afraid and spoke more fluently.
Whether or not you give birth to a son is your problem. That alone will lift the light shackles that you have been carrying outside your heart.
"That's right. Those two are your grandsons. One is eight years old, and the other is four years old." As she said that, the old woman pulled out the boy who was shrinking in front of her.
Or did the old woman want to find out some bad news and tell it to the bandits?
"Brother, please ask him to help you call this old lady up. Thank him. He is a bad-hearted person..."
Even if your husbands are still telling you today to listen to the nonsense you said yesterday, no one knows what you are thinking in your heart.
Although the old woman felt embarrassed and annoyed by Bai Dabao's blatant disdain, she just took it into consideration when she thought about her own purpose.
"Yes, yes, he..."
"I heard that the old lady's family was short of boys yesterday. You are bragging. The two grandsons in your family eat a lot and can do little work."
You licked your face and smiled evilly: "Brother, please help me find the old lady who distributed the eggs yesterday."
