Seeing that Qingwan had given up her idea of escaping, Xiaohua felt a little dazed, and she didn't know whether what she was doing was right or wrong.
Maybe it's better to run away
She didn't know, her heart told her that she didn't want to die, so just stay in peace.
Qing Wan seemed to have made up her mind, she stayed calm, and no longer wanted to run away. It's time to eat, drink, and continue to be aggrieved. It seems that after these days of begging for life in the hands of others, she also begins to know how to make herself feel more comfortable.
It's just that the living environment is too poor after all, in order to save trouble during the driving process, Ya Po provides very little food. Each person only has one cake a day, and only two mouthfuls of water.
The people in the car gradually lost weight, especially Xiaohua herself, who was originally a thin body, but now she feels a little skinny. But the thinner her body is, the brighter her eyes are.
Lin Qingwan had a shocking feeling when she looked at the skinny little girl in front of her.
The smell in the car was unpleasant, mixed with the smell of sweat to form a strange smell.
Lin Qingwan and Xiaohua were nestled in the innermost corner of the carriage. Both of them closed their eyes to save their energy. Sometimes they wouldn't say a word for a day. Most of them just made eye contact. It's not that they don't want to talk, but the more they go to the back, the more dry their mouths are. The water supplied is too little, and everyone's mouths dry up and crack open when they move.
Yu Ziman nestled in the corner of the carriage and looked at the absurdity in front of him, often unable to calm down.
She actually traveled through, and traveled to such a place. What was even more embarrassing was that the body she traveled through was a young lady from an aristocratic family, but she was sold to Beijing because of the resentment of her younger sister. When she woke up, it was in this convoy from the capital to the northern Yapo, which was full of sluggish slaves.
She, a woman in the new era of the 21st century, has actually fallen into such a place.
After experiencing all kinds of struggles, Yu Ziman, who should be called Lin Qingwan now, decided to give up his escape plan. That Xiaohua was right, in such a feudal society, where can a lonely and weak female escape go. The final result is nothing more than living on the streets, or being abducted by traffickers and sold to brothels.
Can't go back home.
I have to say that the method of the younger sister is really poisonous. A young lady from an aristocratic family, even if she is from a concubine, disappears and then goes back, but her reputation will be ruined, and she will 'die from illness' at home. Not to mention that the mother-in-law has always looked down on her, and 'she' is just a little transparent in her father's eyes. If she was really stupid and went back with all the hardships, the mother-in-law must be more than happy to see this situation.
It's just that in such an unfamiliar world, although the original owner has the memory of the original owner, the original owner did not go outside the door. How to survive
The only thing that is fortunate is that Ya Po doesn't seem to be going to sell her to the place where she is pickled, but to be sold as a slave or a maid, or as she heard in a coma, to be sold to Mud Legs to be a mother-in-law.
But no matter what, she could only grit her teeth and insist, and then move according to the situation. I just hope that God can have mercy on her and not push her into a desperate situation.
I was so hungry that I didn't even cry, only the burning pain in my stomach. A pair of small hands stretched out beside her and secretly stuffed something into her palm.
Lin Qingwan turned her head to look at Xiaohua, who winked at her. She didn't speak, just silently stuffed the small cookie into her mouth and chewed it slowly. As soon as his mouth moved, blood gushed out from his lips. She ignored these, and swallowed the blood together with the pancake as a condiment.
She is still not as good as this tough little girl. She gives so little food each time that normal people will gobble it up after getting it. Only Xiaohua, never, like a little hamster, always saves a little, and then when she is too hungry, she will take it out to appease her stomach.
After Lin Qingwan finished eating the cake, she squeezed Xiaohua's hand with her fingers, thanked her silently, and made up her mind to learn from Xiaohua in the future.
In extreme hunger, it’s really important to eat small, frequent meals so your stomach doesn’t hurt. It's just that she's still not used to this kind of situation, so she didn't expect to come here.
Qian Yapo's team does not have the opportunity to hit the top every night, and often has the experience of sleeping in the wild.
At this time, all the carriages with people will form a circle, and then they will be closely guarded, and even thugs will take turns to watch the night.
I thought this night would be spent quietly as usual, but I didn't expect someone to escape in the middle of the night. And Xiaohua and the others were woken up to watch what kind of punishment the person who escaped received.
The one who escaped was a girl in a car in front of the convoy. The car was said to be filled with 'good seedlings' from the hands of Qian Ya Po. Time to sell a brothel for a good price.
I didn't expect Qian Yapo to be so ruthless, and she could be so ruthless when dealing with 'good seedlings'.
This is a typical example of killing chickens to warn the monkeys, and has placed countless eyeliners in the 'mass'.
There are more than ten people in a carriage, and everyone has different thoughts. Even if you want to escape, you have to hide it from the people around you. After all, no one wants to be seated for a few days without food or drink. It will kill people. Everyone was silent, some were so scared that they cried, and some, such as Lin Qingwan, let go of the idea of running away but were still a little unwilling, but they let go of the last bit of unwillingness in their hearts, while Xiaohua watched with determination, people. It was never uncommon for teeth to beat slaves. The more I saw it, the less sympathy I felt, because I was too busy to take care of myself.
The convoy walked for another ten days and finally stopped in Yangcheng, the capital of Yunzhou.
Xiaohua and the others were taken to a large yard and locked in a room. There was still a lot of shops in it, but the ropes that had been tied to everyone's wrists for a long time could finally be untied.
Xiaohua guessed that this should be Qian Yapo's destination this time.
Sure enough, from the second day, the people in this room began to be led out. Some did not come back, while others went back to the house.
It's about himself, someone asked the girl who was taken out and came back, and then everyone knew that those who didn't come back were picked away.
**
In the Daxi Dynasty, there were many kinds of yabo industry, such as housing, land, and goods transactions, etc. The middle people who played an intermediary role in it belonged to the yabo. Qian Yapo is considered to be the top tooth in the tooth industry. Of course, the work she does is one of the most unseemly in the tooth industry, which is commonly known as the human tooth.
Human teeth, that is, people who traffic in human beings.
But no matter whether she is decent or not, at least Qian Yapo has a very big business, and she is also quite decent in the wealthy family in Beijing. She is not only responsible for sending slaves to rich people, but also responsible for helping some rich people deal with some unruly servants and privates. During the years, the two sides have a tacit understanding with each other. Therefore, under the same conditions, many wealthy people like to find money to buy people. It's better to be raw than to be familiar, it's human nature.
After Qian Yapo's business has grown, it is not limited to Beijing, because helping to deal with some people who sell as far as possible, will inevitably leave Beijing. Qian Yapo people are very shrewd and never give up. Today, they have developed a series of offline people, and everyone communicates with each other.
For example, the yamen here in Yunzhou will give some good seedlings to Qian Yapo and bring them to Beijing to sell at a good price. Similarly, Qian Yapo will also give some good seedlings in her hands to these people. A maid from a wealthy family, in a remote area like Yunzhou, is considered to be an extremely good servant.
Of course, everyone who deals with Qian Yapo understands the taboos of Qian Ya, that is, where she says these people are suitable, they can only go there. Being a toothpaste only seeks money, but no one wants to offend the nobles who work for Qianya. Since Qian Yapo said this, it means that the nobles have the taboos of the nobles.
Therefore, the yamen who have cooperated with Qian Yapo many times are very clear in their hearts, even if they see the best 'miaozi', if they are labeled as servants, they can only be sold to people as slaves.
The big yard where Xiaohua and the others stayed was actually a transit station. Qian Yapo brought people here, and then some around her who had dealt with her would come to choose the goods on their own.
There are many types of people in the hands of human teeth, such as male coolies, these are coolies that can be sold at will; for example, the little girls wanted by wealthy families, as long as they are young girls who are old enough, they can be bought and sold without any training. ; Another example is the servant girl that some officials and eunuchs need, this level needs to be higher, the most basic etiquette must be understood, and a newbie who used to be responsible for buying people has to worry about going back to training.
Everyone wants to save trouble, and some other big families also pay attention to decency, even if the maids beside them are not bad. In this way, a girl who can come out from a wealthy family and grow up well-behaved will be extremely sought-after.
As a maid from a big family in Beijing, Xiaohua has also been taken out and picked many times. I don't know if she disliked her skinny appearance at this time, and she was so dirty that she was picked a few times and she was not picked away.
During this period, Qingwan was also taken away by Qian Yapo and never came back.
But Xiaohua was not worried, because Qingwan had leaked to her, saying that she would probably be sold to Mud Legs as a wife. As for why it was such a strange arrangement, Qingwan didn't say, and Xiaohua didn't ask. She thought there must be a lot of tricks in the middle.
There are fewer and fewer people in this room, most of them have been picked out, and only a few people are left, all of whom are not very picky.
Finally one day, Qian Yapo brought them together and handed them over to a man, Xiaohua and the others were caught in a carriage and taken to other places.
