Chapter 628 The heroine who was counterattacked (17)(1/2)
If there is a problem, there must be a problem!
Xu Changsheng has never read a book and has little knowledge, but he has animal-like intuition.
In these years in the mountains and forests, he relied on this invisible and intangible intuition to avoid countless dangers.
only……
The little maid from a wealthy family in front of him is not a savage beast. Why does it make him feel weird?
Does this person have any connection with me?
Xu Changsheng secretly felt vigilant.
Originally, he just wanted to come and take a look. If the third aunt was really in any danger, he would find a way to help.
However, looking at the fight in front of us, it doesn't look like someone is looking for trouble. Instead, it looks like relatives from a wealthy family are coming to give gifts.
It was determined that there was something wrong with Third Aunt Zi's house, and Xu Changsheng should have left in the first place.
But because of the weirdness of the little maid, he did not leave, but stood in the crowd, listening to the chatter and discussion of the people around him.
After a long while, the crowd of onlookers began to disperse, and Xu Changsheng also understood the whole story——
It turns out that the third aunt's natal sister has become rich and her granddaughter is going to be taken to the capital to enjoy the blessings. Before leaving, she came to see her sister!
And the maid that made Xu Changsheng wary was sent by the princess from the capital.
Capital?
Princess Liang?!
For Xu Changsheng, it is definitely an extremely strange and distant existence.
But for some reason, he had an inexplicable feeling.
It seemed that that place had a certain relationship with him.
This was not Xu Changsheng's random speculation. What happened next only increased the suspicion in his heart.
Mrs. Li came to her sister's house and did not leave immediately. Instead, she stayed at her sister's house for one night.
In the evening, the onlookers had completely dispersed.
Li Ermei's family sat next to Mrs. Li, asking about things curiously and enviously.
As for Mrs. Li, she enjoyed the highlight moments of her life immensely, and she was unequivocal in bragging about her wonderful baby.
Jixiang and other maids were busy in Xu's house, cleaning the room and preparing food.
As a maid from the capital, Ji Xiang was naturally much more noble than the crude servant maid Chen Fu bought in the county town, so she seemed to be the leader among them.
She did not do specific work, but was responsible for overall planning.
"Don't kill the chickens and ducks raised by my auntie. Go to your neighbors' houses to see if they have any suitable poultry!"
Jixiang arranged everything in an orderly manner.
Talking about the neighbors, standing in the yard, she couldn't help but cast her eyes to the dilapidated yard on the west side.
Xu Changsheng:......
coming!
here we go again!
This weird little maid looked at me strangely again!
"Young Master, may I ask if you have chickens, ducks and other poultry at home?"
Jixiang shouted to Xu Changsheng through the low wall.
"I, I'm not a young man, I'm just a hunter!"
Xu Changsheng looked straight at Jixiang and said in a somewhat stiff tone, "My family doesn't raise chickens or ducks—"
His family is a well-known poor family in the village.
My father, Xu Leizi, loves to eat and is lazy to cook. He will also gamble a lot when he has something to do.
The family was impoverished by him. Even if Xu Changsheng found a way to raise chickens and ducks at home, Xu Laizi would arrest him and bring trouble.
The old queen, Wang Yaksha, was lazy and greedy. She only cared about herself and didn't even want to take care of her biological son, let alone take care of the housework like a normal peasant woman.
She spends her whole day either visiting the host's house or the west's house. She would rather talk outside than clean up the house.
There are also his two younger brothers, who are also small gangsters and scoundrels.
...It can be said that in a family of five, he looks like a normal person living a normal life.
His whole family was dirty, but Xu Changsheng, who was hardworking and capable, became an alien.
And those who are different will always be squeezed out.
Therefore, Xu Changsheng has been abused by Xu Lezi and his wife since childhood.
He was beaten or scolded, and starving and freezing were commonplace.
Xu Changsheng would have died long ago if his neighbors and fellow villagers hadn't felt sorry for him and would have given him some food or taught him some trap-digging and hunting skills behind his back!
When he was in his twenties, everyone of the same age in the village had several children.
Xu Changsheng didn't even have a wife.
He also wanted to get married, but the Xu family's situation——
Any family that loves their daughters would not send their children into the Xu family's fiery pit.
Xu Changsheng is a good boy, everyone in the village knows it.
Not only is he capable, the most important thing is that he looks good.
He is tall and handsome, with handsome features. If he had not often gone to the mountains to eat and sleep in the open air, and his skin would be tanned, he should be more respectable than the rich young master in the county.
But, it’s so beautiful that you can’t eat it for food.
As long as Xu Changsheng does not leave the Xu family, no one will be willing to marry him.
Separate the family?
impossible!
Xu Lezi and Wang Yaksha are not stupid. Their family relies entirely on Xu Changsheng’s hunting.
If he is separated, what will the family of four eat and drink?
Xu Changsheng used to be greedy for family affection and had illusions about his parents.
If he makes money from hunting, he will stupidly give it to his family.
However, when he found out several times that his parents were behind his back, using the money he handed over to feed his brothers delicious food, but only hiding it from him, he knew that he was asking too much.
Later, Xu Lezi pretended to be stupid and refused to marry him, and threatened him with the words "If you dare to disobey me, I will go to the Yamen to sue you." Xu Changsheng gave up completely.
He no longer paid foolishly, but began to hide his private money.
Xu Changsheng thought about it. When he saved enough money, he would leave Xujiaping and go find his biological parents.
That’s right!
biological parents!
Over the years, not only Xu Changsheng, who has experienced it personally, but also people in the village have doubts——
"I'm afraid the child Changsheng is not the biological child of Xu Lezi and his wife."
There are reasons why everyone has such doubts:
First, Xu Changsheng was brought back from outside by Xu Lezi and his wife.
When the family returned to Xujiaping, Xu Changsheng was already over one year old.
People of the older generation still remember that Xu Changsheng at that time was fair and chubby. Although he had not yet grown out, he was delicate and good-looking.
As for Xu Leizi, he was short and thin, with scars all over his head, triangular eyes, and rosacea...anyway, he didn't look like a person.
His daughter-in-law, Wang Yaksha, was no less generous. She was short and fat, with squinty eyes, a flat nose, a big mouth, and a layer of fine hair on her lips. She was actually more masculine than a man.
Otherwise, she would not have been nicknamed "Yaksha".
It is impossible for such an ugly couple to give birth to a child as beautiful as Xu Changsheng.
Second, Xu Lezi and his wife treated Xu Changsheng very badly.
No matter how bad or bad a person is, he will be soft-hearted towards his own children, especially his eldest son.
Also, even if a man's heart is more hard-hearted, as a mother who is pregnant in ten months and gives birth once, she will be particularly fond of her own flesh and blood as long as there is no special reason.
Xu Lezi and Wang Yaksha did not show any kindness to Xu Changsheng.
They have been beaten and scolded constantly since they were young, and they ignore the children who cry when they are hungry.
Gu Jian
If Li Ermei, the neighbor next door, hadn't secretly fed the child some food when she saw how pitiful the child was, Xu Changsheng would never be alive today.
