I'm writing novels in Liaozhai

Of course, this does not mean that silver is worthless.

Mainly because of the general environment, the disparity between rich and poor has almost become polarized.

Rich people live in deep mansions and large courtyards, with rich clothes and fine food, hordes of servants, and a lot of wealth.

It may cost a few taels or even dozens of taels to buy a gadget.

As for ordinary people, many of them have never even touched silver in their entire lives, and they use copper coins on weekdays.

Eating a bowl of noodles outside usually costs three or four pennies, a steamed bun costs one penny, and a steamed bun usually costs two pennies.

The daily expenses of most families may be more than ten Wen.

Most of the current people in rich families only pay three or four hundred cash, and even only one or two hundred cash is given to those who knock on the door.

And one tael of silver is converted into one thousand Wen. It is conceivable that one tael of silver is already considered a large sum for poor people.

Because of this, this woman only dared to ask for five taels of silver when she sold her daughter, which is not as valuable as a better-looking thrush or even a cricket.

Some people in the crowd were hesitating, thinking whether to buy the little girl.

The little girl looked to be only five or six years old, not to mention dirty and skinny, her hair was messy and knotted like a bird's nest.

Therefore, some people are afraid that after buying it back, the little girl will not live long. Wouldn't it be a waste of money and bad luck?

"Everyone, please do me a favor and sell my daughter away... We really can't make it through, so we should save the lives of our mother and child..."

Seeing many people watching, the woman kowtowed mournfully.

At this time, Dongxiang couldn't help biting her lips, tears streaming down uncontrollably.

"Why? Why are you so cruel? Why did you sell your daughter? Is she your own? Tell me, tell me!"

Then, he yelled at the woman out of control.

"Mom, I'm afraid..."

The little girl was frightened, and quickly hid in her mother's arms.

The woman couldn't help crying: "Girl, this little girl is really my own daughter. If anyone has a bite to eat, who is willing to sell his own children? After all, it is the flesh that fell from his body, just like cutting himself. like meat..."

Having said that, some people wiped their tears on the spot.

"I don't believe it, I don't believe it, no matter what, parents shouldn't sell their own flesh and blood. You are too cruel. Even if you really can't afford it, why did you give birth to them? Why?"

At this time, Gu Ming walked up, gently hugged Dongxiang's shoulders, and comforted him in a soft voice: "Okay Dongxiang, I know the pain in your heart, but sometimes you really have to.

Their mother and daughter must be desperate, selling their daughter is better than watching her starve to death..."

"Thank you son, thank you son..."

As soon as Gu Ming spoke for her, the woman couldn't help but kowtowed in tears to thank her.

Dongxiang was also sad from her heart, and she fell into Gu Ming's arms and wept bitterly.

Because she remembered what happened to her.

Back then, she was also sold by her parents, so she felt angry and sad when she saw someone selling her daughter.

"Okay, Dongxiang, don't cry, it's all over..."

Gu Ming patted Dongxiang's head lightly to comfort her.

Li Xiuyuan whispered: "Teacher, how about...how about we give them some money so that she will not sell her daughter."

"Well, wait a minute, I'll ask about the situation."

After Dongxiang cried for a while, and her mood began to stabilize, Gu Ming took out a silk handkerchief and wiped her tears.

Then he said to the woman: "Okay, don't kneel down, it's already noon, you mother and daughter are hungry too, get up, go to the market to eat something first."

As soon as she heard eating, the little girl's stomach immediately "cuckooed" and there was a gleam of desire in her eyes.

Looking at her like this, you can tell that she has not had enough to eat for a long time and is seriously malnourished.

"This this……"

The woman seemed hesitant.

After all, it wasn't relative, and Gu Ming didn't say he wanted to buy her daughter, but just invited her to dinner, she felt a bit embarrassed.

"Even if you can go hungry, you have to think about your children."

"Mom, I'm hungry..."

The little girl couldn't help holding her mother's hand and begging.

The woman couldn't help but shed tears again, patted her daughter's head, then kowtowed to Gu Ming and the others: "Thank you for your kindness."

"Okay, get up."

When Gu Ming raised his hand lightly, the woman felt an invisible force coming, making her stand up effortlessly.

Now, her expression couldn't help but become a little shocked...

"Little girl, let's go, you can eat whatever you want later."

Before she could speak, Gu Ming raised his hand at the little girl.

"Gulu..." Xiaoya swallowed wildly, and said timidly, "Can I eat buns?"

Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but walked forward, not too dirty, took Xiaoya's hand and said: "The buns are not good, please eat chicken legs, roast goose, fish, meat..."

"No, no, no, really, just a few steamed buns for the little girl to eat."

The woman quickly waved her hand.

"It's okay, let's go."

A group of five people walked into the small market, and Gu Ming found a restaurant and walked in.

"Guest officer, please come in!"

Seeing Gu Ming, the staff greeted him warmly immediately.

As a result, after the mother and daughter walked in, the waiter immediately darkened his face: "Go out, if you want to beg, go outside and don't disturb the guests."

"Man, their mother and daughter are our guests."

Gu Ming said coldly.

"Ah? This...but..."

The guy glanced at the other diners with a puzzled look on his face.

"Who cares about your customers, what are you doing in such a dirty restaurant? It affects everyone's appetite."

"That's right, get some food for them to go out to eat, don't be an eyesore here."

Several diners immediately shouted.

This time, Dongxiang was enraged, and immediately took out a silver coin and put it on the table: "Your account book girl is finished, if you think it's dirty, go out."

"Yo, this girl is delicious!"

"Hahaha, it's spicy and generous, I like it! Girl, why don't you come over and have a drink together?"

A big bearded man laughed at Dong Xiang.

"You do not deserve!"

Dongxiang said coldly.

"Bitch, what are you talking about? Do you know who I am?"

The bearded man immediately slapped the table, got up and walked over.

The two men at the table with him also followed closely, looking like they were going to take the opportunity to get mad.

At this time, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but said: "I advise the three of you to calm down and sit back at your table and eat well."

"Hahaha, boy, are you threatening me? When I was messing around, your baby was still at your grandma's house."

"Things that don't have long eyes, Lord Tiger, do you dare to mess with them?"

The entourage behind Hujiahuwei gave a loud shout.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Li Xiuyuan's figure moved, and he rushed to the face of the cheeky man, grabbed the opponent's belt, and raised it with one hand...

"Bang~"

Then it was thrown to the ground again.

"Master Tiger, right? I think it's a bug."

"You kid..."

Seeing that Li Xiuyuan was so powerful at such a young age, the two attendants couldn't help being a little frightened.

However, the guy named Master Hu was a little unconvinced, and said hoarsely: "You trash, what are you doing in a daze? Hit me!"

Hearing this, the two subordinates had no choice but to stiffen their hair, each grabbed a stool and threw it at Li Xiuyuan.

Gu Ming didn't move, just watched with cold eyes.

How can such a small scene use his hands?He believed that Li Xiuyuan would be able to settle things down.

But Dongxiang was afraid that Li Xiuyuan would be injured, so she rushed forward and kicked one of his subordinates away.

The remaining one, Li Xiuyuan raised his hand, did not dodge or dodge, and smashed the stool with a punch...

After all, although he is young and has not been practicing for a long time, he has a high starting point, which is equivalent to cultivating immortals rather than martial arts from the very beginning.

So how could these reckless people be his opponents?

After showing such a move, the bearded three were finally frightened, knowing that they had met an expert, they knelt down and begged for mercy.

After all, Gu Ming hasn't moved yet.It seemed that he was the leader.

"roll!"

Dongxiang shouted at the three of them.

"Yes, yes, let's go, let's go."

After this commotion, all the diners behaved themselves, and no one dared to shout anymore.

A few who found it dirty quietly paid their bills and left.

"I'm sorry to cause you trouble..."

The woman looked uneasy and apologized to Gu Ming repeatedly.

"It's okay, sit down. Dude, bring your specialty dishes to the table one by one."

"Yes, yes, a few guests, wait a moment..."

Where do you dare to talk too much, buddy?Quickly ran to the kitchen.

After a while, the food and wine began to be served on the table, and the table was filled with piles of piles.

"Wow~"

Seeing so many delicious food, Xiao Ya's eyes sparkled and she swallowed wildly.

However, it was very well-behaved, and I didn't rush to reach out to grab it.

"Little sister, you're welcome. You can eat whatever you want. Come, eat a chicken leg first."

Li Xiuyuan grabbed the biggest piece of chicken leg and handed it to Xiaoya.

"Thank you brother."

The little girl smiled sweetly, and then started to eat voraciously.

Wiping her tears, the woman apologized, "I'm sorry, I made you laugh..."

"It's okay!" Gu Ming waved his hand: "My eldest sister, although your mother and daughter are in trouble, you must have been not an ordinary family before, how did you fall into the current situation?"

"This……"

When this matter was mentioned, the woman couldn't help crying.

"Eldest sister, tell me what difficulties you have, and we may be able to help you."

"Let's eat first, and talk while eating..."

"Thank you, you are all living Bodhisattvas..."
