In March, it was rainy. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe sky is not beautiful, and people are not happy.

A gentle drizzle washed the streets, and the washed stone bricks were crystal clear and looked so pure, and the whole street was washed very clean. The hurried footsteps of people passing by, and the thick sludge on the streets of those returning from outside the city, made it uncomfortable. A rainy day is already a dull mood, and Hongyu walking on the street looks unhappy, with a trace of sorrow on her face, unwilling to be ordinary. Walking in the rain seemed to improve her mood, but it was really unexciting on a rainy day, so she walked in the drizzle with a contradictory mood.

This town is very far away from the capital, Hongyu really wanted to go to the capital to have a look, when she was a child, her father coaxed her, saying that she would take her to the capital when she grew up, but at the age of twenty-two she has not yet walked out of this town. She likes to read, and she can learn a lot about the outside world from books, but the conditions at home are not good, and there is no decent bookstore in the town, so she can only go to the poor Xiucai's house to borrow some shabby books, and it is very easy for her to borrow books when she looks good. Hongyu also likes some things that girls like, she likes pink clothes, rubbing rouge, shiny jewelry, and some girls' gadgets. But her family conditions don't allow it, and she doesn't have any of these. She could only wear burlap clothes, wash her face with water every day, and carry a ring folded with paper on her hand, and she didn't have any of those girls' gadgets. But even if she doesn't rub her rouge face, she is just as beautiful.

At the age of twenty-two, she is already considered an older woman in the town, and she has not yet been married, and she has been pointed at by the people of the town. Every day pulling a cart to sell tofu brains along the street, although life is so unsatisfactory, she still doesn't want to be so ordinary, she feels that she has to leave this poor place at any time, but where can she go herself, a girl walks out of the town blindly to wander, she herself is a little scared. She always wants to find an opportunity to send herself out of the town, even if she goes to the county, she doesn't want to stay in this town.

The time finally came, and a group of people came to the town to recruit a few girls to be maids in the homes of officials in the capital. Hongyu felt that this was an opportunity and signed up. With Hongyu's appearance and figure, she was directly selected, and despite her parents' repeated dissuasion, she still resolutely wanted to go to the capital. She is fed up with the poor town, she wants to live a rich life, and she will definitely not let go of this opportunity.

Before leaving, her mother packed the dry food for her that she couldn't eat along the way, and although she saw her mother's reluctance, she still resolutely left. The leader of the group took 20 girls, and a large carriage loaded them all in, and when they entered, the door of the carriage was locked, and the carriage was pitch black, and the girls muttered in their hearts, why lock the door? Although they didn't dare to speak out when they felt something was wrong, the dozen or so men outside scared them. So the carriage went all the way, and when they were hungry they ate the dry food they had brought, and every two hours they were sent out to the toilet, and at night they slept in the carriage. The day and night bumps made the girls tired, and some of them had eaten all the dry food, but the capital had not yet arrived. Hongyu felt that something was too wrong, I heard that it would take ten days and half a month to take a carriage to the capital, and it had been more than twenty days, why hadn't it arrived? Hongyu was frightened, but she didn't dare to ask, the person driving the carriage outside looked very fierce.

A few more days later, the carriages were still moving, and the girls who had finished their dry rations were provided with food by the leader of the group, and they were not fed at every meal, and each of them had only a little ration per meal. The girls were scared, everyone felt that something was wrong, but they didn't dare to ask. The girls didn't communicate with each other, they all knew that they might be in danger, but they didn't want to say this idea to each other, if they said it, it would only make them more afraid, and it was better to deceive themselves like this than to be afraid, and give themselves a little psychological comfort.

The carriage drove for about forty days and finally stopped, and the end point was indeed not the capital. It's a small mountain village that looks poorer than the small town in its hometown. The girls were driven out of the carriage and stood in line, and the leader of the group stood by with a whip, and none of them dared to speak or run. After a while, the leader brought a few people dressed in rustic clothes, and the leader asked these people to choose girls. Hongyu knew that she had been sold, she had been sold to a small mountain village, she originally wanted to go to the capital, but now she was sold here, the unwillingness and grievances in her heart made her shed tears, and her tears were also full of fear, she felt that her life was simply terrible.

At this moment, there was already a girl crying, and Hongyu became more and more afraid. Seeing that the girls were chosen one by one, Hongyu's inner grievances suddenly poured out, and she cried. The strongest red rain on weekdays couldn't hold back, she cried not because she was afraid of being taken away by strangers, she cried about being sold into this poor ravine for the bleak life of the future. She couldn't live the expected life in the capital anymore, all her good dreams were shattered, and she was desperate to see the girls being taken away one by one.

Finally it was Red Rain's turn, and it was an ugly middle-aged man who took Red Rain away. The man took out a rope to tie Hongyu's hands, carried Hongyu on his shoulders with one hand, threw a bag of money on the ground and carried Hongyu away. Hongyu tried to struggle, of course it was useless to struggle, the man didn't say a word, just strode forward.

Walking to the village, the man put down the red rain. It was surrounded by stone benches and a tall platform, apparently the village square. After a while, the whole village, old and young, men and women, gathered one after another. The man led Hongyu onto the stage and shouted to the audience: "This time the goods are absolutely superior, auction, auction, hahahahaha......" Someone in the audience responded, looking at Hongyu with an obscene expression. Hongyu knew that she had been sold for the second time, and she auctioned herself like a cargo, and the sense of humiliation made her unwilling to face everyone in the audience, Hongyu turned her head, and the man grabbed Hongyu's neck and turned her head over. Someone in the audience began to shout the price, and finally Hongyu was auctioned off at a price of ninety taels of silver.

Hongyu was humiliated and taken away by the buyer, and it was two old people who took Hongyu away, and the old man took Hongyu home and locked it in the house. Hongyu's heart was sold twice before she could settle down, she didn't know what this place was, she didn't even know what happened that day, as if she had experienced a nightmare, but the nightmare hadn't woken up yet. Hongyu tried to calm herself down, where did she go to the stubborn self who was not afraid of things on weekdays, she tried to calm herself, she must find a way to escape, escape from this disgusting place.
