Xianyu Infrastructure, I have a lot of troops in my hands
Chapter 98 Betting on Dogs
Who is Xie Xian? She doesn't need anyone to hold her back, because she can cut off her own useless hind legs.
Ju was a maid who cleaned the house in a big house. In previous years, every time her monthly salary was paid, it would be taken away by her brother and sister-in-law, either because her mother was sick or because her nephew wanted to eat meat.
She used to be muddle-headed, thinking that she could just wait until she was older and find someone to marry to escape from her misery.
But one day, someone told her that there was a place where she could use her monthly salary to learn some skills. She couldn't let her skills be taken away by others! Ju was a person who listened to advice, so she went there with the mentality of giving it a try. There she met many girls like her.
There were maids from the front and back yards, as well as little girls, and the Second House Junior School took them in without hesitation. Apart from not being allowed to violate the junior school's rules, whether or not one could learn a skill depended entirely on oneself.
Ju was very skillful since she was young. With the knowledge she had learned, she drew her first embroidery picture in her life. She cried with joy, but not long after, her mother sent someone to tell her that her family wanted to marry her off for money.
Just because his brother got addicted to gambling, Ju felt like she was struck by lightning and cried all night.
"I told my mother that I can make money by doing embroidery to pay off my brother's debts." Ju's eyes were full of sadness.
"But they still want to sell me, they still want to sell me!" She didn't understand. Ever since her father passed away, her brother and sister-in-law have been in charge of the family.
Her mother's words went unheard, and her last ray of light was shattered.
Ju's little sister also felt the same way, "Can't someone help Ju?"
"Who can help? Your mother has to rely on your brother and sister-in-law for her old age. I can't help even if I want to." said an older maid.
She has seen too many families like Ju's. The rest of a daughter's life depends entirely on the character of her family members.
"Ju, which branch of the clan are you from?" asked a smart little girl.
Seeing that she seemed to have thought of something, everyone looked over.
Ju sighed, "The second branch of the family, from the Su family!" Her grandfather's generation followed the second branch's guards and was responsible for logistics. But later he retired, bought property, and became a farmer.
If the queen recruits soldiers in the future, her family can also have a quota, but now most people are not optimistic about being a soldier. Not only is it dangerous, but the salary may not be paid on time.
Nowadays, only those with military families can join the Blackstone Guard through recommendation. Ordinary people can't even get close to them.
When the little girl heard what Ju said, her eyebrows curved and she smiled faintly with dimples on her face: "Then we can report this matter to the Discipline Hall!"
Everyone was puzzled, but someone was quick to respond, "Yes, the discipline requires us to stop gambling!"
"This is a good idea! This way Ju can be saved!"
"But this is not good!" Ju whispered. She was weak-willed and felt that informing on her brother was a bit beyond her rights.
The girl with curved eyebrows frowned, she was a little confused: "But my mother said that gamblers will lose everything in the end, and even their wives and mothers may be sold!"
The reason why she knew so much was that Xie Xian not only executed people in front of the Discipline Hall every day, but also had the charges read out before each execution. This became a good place for the tribesmen to watch the fun on weekdays.
But at first some people didn't understand why there were rules and regulations, and why this and that were not allowed.
But after a few days, I realized the harm that prostitution, gambling, etc. bring to the people involved, as well as their families and relatives.
Everyone was silent. They only knew that these were not good things, but they had no idea how bad they were. But an example is selling children, houses and land.
In the second example, a man kidnapped a relative's baby and sold it. He was found out and slashed his father, and his family broke up. The third example, the fourth example......
They seemed to understand the significance of discipline, and some even brought their entire families, young and old, to watch.
The tribesmen went from watching the excitement at first to being shocked and sweating in the end. They even thought about all their relatives and friends in their minds.
On the second day, when Ju was brought to the door of the Discipline Hall, she saw her elder brother tied to a pillar, and her sister-in-law and mother lying on the ground.
A look of surprise and bewilderment flashed across her face. She looked at her brother who was beaten to pieces. But she felt relieved. She suddenly remembered what the little girl had said to her yesterday before she left: I will help you!
Then today, his brother was beaten.
She also knew the man who was talking about losing money. He was the cousin of the lady. She listened to him muttering in a daze: "Liu Da, bet on February and lost 20 taels. Sell five acres of land and want to sell his sister."
The villagers who knew Ju turned their eyes to Ju.
The guilt that had just arisen in Ju's heart disappeared instantly, and she lowered her eyes. Yes, she was the thing her brother wanted to sell but didn't.
Suddenly, the woman on the ground got up and slapped Ju hard: "Are you a bitch who informed on your brother, you lowly thing! @! @! ¥!"
Ju staggered from the blow, half of her face flushed. She looked over coldly. Ever since her brother wanted to sell her, she was no longer a member of this family. "Sister-in-law, who do you think will be the next one after I'm sold?"
"Is it Douwazi? Is it the mother, or is it you?" Since the sister-in-law thinks she deserves to die, let her tell us who deserves to die the most.
The woman's fierce face froze, she took a step back and cried heartbreakingly. But she knew that what Ju said was right.
Xie Qiyan frowned. These days, these family members have been making a lot of noise. He has grown rapidly from being panicked at the beginning to being calm and composed now.
He warned: "Don't make noise during the execution, or you will be beaten together!"
An elder from the village who often came here reminded her, "Dou Wa's mother, this is not the place for you to act like a spoiled child." Liu Da's gambling addiction was closely related to his wife's younger brother.
Xie Qiyan continued: "The third crime, Liu Da was deceived by his brother-in-law and became addicted to gambling. He wanted to sell the students of the junior school. His crime is one level higher. He will be sentenced to three months in prison in Heishiwei after being caned."
The woman lying on the ground was suddenly panicked, "General, what are you doing following the Black Stone Guard?" She was afraid that her husband would never come back and she would become a widow. A family cannot do without a man!
"Wow, Liu Da is also going to mine for reform!" The villagers were shocked! Because a few days ago, there were gamblers who were sentenced to Black Stone Guard for one or two months. But none of them were as heavy as this time.
Xie Qiyan, seeing everyone's confusion, explained: "Students of the Lady Sovereign Junior School are under the protection of the Lady Sovereign during their studies. No one can bully them without reason, not even family members!"
"So because his sister went to kindergarten, Liu Da wanted to sell his sister and was fined for two extra months?" Everyone felt mixed emotions. "What a blessing! He is protected by the Queen!"
"What do you think you will learn in primary school? You learn a skill in primary school so that you can serve you in the future, not be sold by your family!" Xie Miao stepped forward.
Xiao Li'er, who was following behind her, smiled faintly at Ju.
