"Hit someone, come quickly, I'm not going to survive."
The old woman was messing around on the ground and screaming loudly, tearing apart the tranquility of the village. Many people ran over and surrounded the yard, pointing at Zhu Yunzhen and others. Some even picked up hoes and blocked the way. .
Tang Buping and Gu Yun were guarding Zhu Yunwen, but Huang Huai could no longer take care of him. Outside, where the crowd was excited and noisy, Suo Jing had ordered the sergeants disguised as civilians to look for favorable terrain and be ready to take action at any time.
Huang Huai watched Zhu Yunwen pick up the little girl, stepped forward and whispered: "Sir, this foot binding is a voluntary act by the people, and it does not violate the laws and regulations. There are many such things among the people..."
Zhu Yunwen untied the cloth strips on Sun Yatou's feet, looked at the twisted toes, and said to Tang Buping, "Is there any way?"
Tang Buping nodded slightly, put away the dagger in his hand, reached out and grabbed Sun Yatou's toes, and whispered: "Endure the pain, it will be fine in a moment."
Before Sun Yatou could say anything, Tang Buping moved his wrist and heard the sound of bones cracking. Then he stood up and said, "The toe bone is injured. It will take two or three months to heal."
Zhu Yunwen wiped the girl's tears and said in a low voice: "Huang Huai, I don't care about the villagers or the people, but they hurt my people in front of me. How can I endure it? Everyone in the world calls you a king like a father." , this child is my child, there is no painful sound of broken toes in the palace, why are there among the people?!"
Huang Huai didn't know how to answer. You can't say that your old Zhu family can't keep up with the pace of the nobility and lag behind the nobility. It can't be said that you don't know how to appreciate the beauty of the three-inch golden lotus, right?
Elder Wang shouted angrily
Said: "You are harming the child. Now she has to suffer pain once and endure it for half a year. But now, she has to suffer pain twice!"
Zhu Yunwen suddenly looked at Elder Wang. Elder Wang felt a huge majesty rushing towards him, and his whole body suddenly became cold. It seemed like a ferocious beast was staring at him. If he was not careful, his body would be wiped out!
"I adopted this child. She is my daughter now. I want to see who dares to hurt her at all!"
Zhu Yunwen shouted sharply.
A middle-aged man shouted with a sickle: "She has parents, why should you adopt her? Let the child go. If the trouble continues, we will report her to the police!"
Seeing that something was wrong, Huang Huai whispered: "Sir, it's not appropriate for us to do this..."
"Shut up!"
Zhu Yunwen interrupted Huang Huai.
I dare not say that folk foot binding has been completely popularized, but at least it has a huge mass base. They even directly link small feet with happiness and marriage. If you don't bind feet, if you don't have small feet, it will be embarrassing and embarrassing. The daughter's family is likely to marry stay home!
From this point of view, it was indeed wrong for Zhu Yunwen to interrupt the old woman. The old woman was also doing it for the good of her children, but this kind of logic and point of view could not convince Zhu Yunwen!
"Girl, what's your name?"
Zhu Yunwen asked in a low voice.
Sun Yatou sobbed and said, "Sun Zhizhi."
Zhu Yunwen nodded, smiled softly, and said, "Be my goddaughter. No one in the world will dare to hurt you in the future. Your grandma can't force you to bind your feet, and neither can your father. How about that?"
"Really?"
Sun Zhizhi's eyes flashed with tears.
Zhu Yunwen assured: "It's true."
Sun Zhizhi looked at the dead rooster on the ground.
Looking at the scattered strips of cloth and the needle and thread in grandma's hand, she took a step back in fear, hid behind Zhu Yunwen, and whispered: "Father, I'm afraid."
"Haha, didn't you hear that? She called me foster father!"
Zhu Yunwen laughed heartily.
Seeing this situation, Huang Huai quickly pulled Tang Buping and Gu Yun aside and muttered. Tang Buping and Gu Yun's faces suddenly turned ugly. Huang Huai shrugged helplessly: "I am a poor man, you are not …”
Tang Buping had no choice but to endure the pain and took out a fine jade pendant from his arms. With a flattering smile, he raised the crystal jade pendant and shouted loudly: "Congratulations to the Lord for accepting your adopted daughter. I will give you a gift worth three thousand guan." A piece of warm jade."
"What, three thousand swords?!"
Elder Wang was stunned for a moment, and other people watching also exclaimed. Who are they? How could they have so much financial resources? This Sun Zhizhi might have found a good family.
Three thousand strings, I have never seen them given away so easily in my life. This, this...
Gu Yun looked at Tang Buping who was gritting his teeth secretly, and knew that he was not lying. This jade pendant was really worth three thousand guan and was a gift from the emperor. I also had one, but it was just a ruby. But in order for the emperor not to expose his identity and successfully rescue the siege, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and take it out. Like Tang Buping, he held it high in front of him, deliberately letting the people watching clearly see it, and shouted loudly: "Congratulations, Lord." To accept my adopted daughter, I will give you a deep-sea ruby worth four thousand guan."
Wow, it hurts.
This is a reward earned for his military exploits in the undercover Chen Zuyi Pirates. He gave it away like this. It is impossible not to feel pain, but there is no way. Sun Zhizhi is now more or less a
As a princess, she has to fawn over the emperor...
Four thousand strings!
The people watching were talking a lot, but looking at the white jade and ruby, it didn't seem to be fake.
A man ran out from among the people. Just as Tang Buping wanted to stop him, the man knelt down and crawled in front of Sun Zhizhi. He stared at the jade and gems: "This, this is real, it's real. Ertou, hurry up." Go call daddy and say you have a baby!"
One person ran out from the crowd.
The old woman was also stunned at this time, and for a moment she didn't know whether to continue the fuss. This is a gift of 7,000 guan, my mother, 7,000 guan is enough for me to feed myself for many years. Our family eats 7,000 guan a year. How many years is 7,000 guan?
A thousand years? !
This, what a huge wealth this is.
With such a large sum of money, and even giving my granddaughter a ghost to tie her feet, her feet are big enough for those rich kids to step over the threshold.
Seeing that the old woman had stopped making trouble, Mr. Wang Qi touched his forehead and looked around. He caught a glimpse of a house not far away, and saw a few sergeants holding long bows. He couldn't help but take a deep breath of cold air. After looking at the crowd again, there were more There are some unidentified people. Wang Qi has lived a lifetime, so he still has this knowledge. Needless to say, the identity of the man next to him must be unusual. He must be from an official family or an official family with guards.
There are not many officials with bodyguards in the world. In addition to the emperor, there are also vassal kings and some high-ranking officials with special missions.
The other party withdrew.
Elder Wang looked at Zhu Yunwen and felt uneasy. It was only a matter of words for such a person to deal with himself. In order not to offend this mysterious big man, Elder Wang hurriedly walked towards the neighbors: "It's all over, it's over. It was a misunderstanding. Misunderstanding, please reply
Go ahead. "
When the neighbors saw this, they were so envious that they didn't want to leave.
The old woman also stood up at this time, smiling: "Old lady, I'm fine. Everyone, please go back..."
The elder and the old woman both said that it was not a problem to stay here and watch, so everyone had to go home amidst the discussion.
Elder Wang kicked Sun Cheng: "You go back too."
Sun Cheng shook his head: "These jade pendants and gemstones are top-quality treasures. I will wait for dad to come and take a look."
"Why don't you look at it if it's not yours!"
Elder Wang was a little depressed.
Zhu Yunwen did not leave, but stayed at Sun Zhizhi's house. His father Sun You and mother Wang were both working at the dock. He came back after hearing the news. After listening to the old mother's nagging, he looked at his daughter again and saw that her daughter was very affectionate. He was playing with Zhu Yunwen, looking very happy, but he couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
He just went out to work. How long has it been before the child has an adoptive father?
Sun Liang hurried over, greeted Sun You, and then looked at his son Sun Cheng. Sun Cheng pointed at the ruby in Sun Zhizhi's hand and the jade pendant hanging around his waist.
"This is?"
Sun Liang was stunned.
Although Sun You and Sun Liang are old acquaintances, the two families don't move around much. After all, Sun Liang's family is engaged in big business and jewelry, while his own is just a miserable dock worker.
"Five thousand strings, can you sell this jade pendant and ruby to me?"
Sun Liang asked immediately.
Tang Buping and Gu Yun had disdain on their faces. They wanted to take away something worth seven thousand guan even though they had 5,000 guan?
Sun You didn't know it and was shocked by the huge number. Wang even exclaimed with a look of disbelief on his face.
Zhu Yunwen looked at Sun Liang and said in a deep voice, "This is my adopted daughter."
, its treasure cannot be taken away at any price, you can go out, I have something to say to them. "
Sun Liang and Sun Cheng had no choice but to withdraw first.
Zhu Yunwen took Sun Zhizhi and said to Sun You, Wang and Sun Zhizhi's grandmother: "You don't need to ask me about my identity. You just need to know that Sun Zhizhi is my adopted daughter. I will not allow her to be injured. If she is delayed by her big feet, If you want to marry her, I will arrange her marriage to ensure your satisfaction."
Sun You asked in confusion: "Why, why are you so nice to my daughter?"
Zhu Yunwen pushed Sun Zhizhi to Sun You: "Because she calls me foster father, this is enough. Let me say it again, I will not allow her to get hurt. If anyone dares to hurt her without telling me, I will be very unhappy. When the time comes, …”
The old woman quickly said: "No, we will not hurt Zhizhi, absolutely not."
Zhu Yunwen nodded, bent down, stroked Sun Zhizhi's head, and said softly: "After a while, my adoptive father will send someone to pick you up to play in Jinling, okay?"
"Okay, father and mother will go together."
"Granddaughter, take grandma with you."
"Oh, and grandma."
The old woman suddenly felt heartbroken when she heard some disappointed and complaining voices.
Zhu Yunwen stood up with a smile, walked towards the door, and waved to a few people with his back: "I will arrange for someone to pick you up, let's go."
"Father..."
Sun Zhizhi wanted to catch up, but was held back by Sun You.
Zhu Yunwen looked back, nodded slightly, and finally turned around. The smile on his face slowly faded, and coldness began to creep up his face.
On the boat, there was a crackle.
Huang Huai was trembling, and Tang Buping, Gu Yun, Xiong Wucheng and others did not dare to enter the cabin.
There was a rumor inside that the table had been overturned.
There was a sudden movement, and not long after, Zhu Yunwen walked out of the cabin and sternly ordered: "Go back to Beijing!"
