Chapter 439
439 Chapter 439 regret
The youngest, fourth mother, was only 25 years old. At 15 years old, she was sold to a rich family’s foolish young master as a wife.
This foolish young master was not a cute fool. He was the kind of fool who would go crazy and kill people. There were more than a dozen little girls who had been harmed by him.
The fourth mother’s family was not so poor that they could not afford to eat. On the contrary, she had a cousin who was studying in school. However, her parents had passed away. As she grew older, her grandmother and aunt knew that the family spent at least a hundred taels on buying a wife for their son. Therefore, the fourth mother, who had no parents or brothers, was sold.
It was even a life and death contract. Her family would directly remove her name from the genealogy, which meant that she no longer existed in this world and would not affect her cousin in the future.
When third mother met fourth mother, she had brought the first Mother, who had learned some martial arts and had some Foundation, out to Scout. They happened to be looking at fourth mother’s family, which had bought her. They happened to see fourth mother being hit in the head by the foolish young master with a blunt weapon, and blood was flowing.
The two of them didn’t say anything and directly hit the head of the foolish young master. They took fourth mother away and returned to the village after they were done scouting. A few days later, their brothers in the village came to Rob them.
They were all pitiful women. Since they had entered the village, they didn’t want to go back. They definitely wouldn’t go to their in-laws ‘house. If their parents’ family had taken care of them, they wouldn’t have been so miserable. Therefore, they abandoned their original identities and became sworn brothers with third lady Meng. They also took the Meng family’s surname. They could be considered a new life!
Gu Nian felt that they were really lucky to have met third lady Meng at the critical moment of life and death and been saved.
Moreover, Gu Nian’s opinion of Meng Meng’s stronghold had changed. At the same time, he understood why some people in the stronghold wanted to jump to other strongholds. Meng Meng’s stronghold really robbed the rich to help the thieves. They only robbed the unscrupulous rich and had a bottom line.
Because of third lady Meng’s existence, the matter of looking for the wife of the bandit chief was probably not allowed to happen.
The bandits were naturally unwilling, and those who stayed behind were people like Meng Meng.
As for Meng Meng’s fiancée, Jiang Yao, Gu Nian had found out from the conversation between the four ladies of the Meng family that Jiang Yao had fainted in the mountains outside the village a few years ago and was saved by Meng Meng’s mother. When she woke up, she took the initiative to ask for shelter. She was willing to be a slave or a maid, even if it was just a wife of a Bandit.
Meng Meng’s mother was the wife of the chief at that time. How could she let a little girl be the wife of the chief?
A few years ago, Jiang Yao was only 13 years old. She was quite pretty. Meng Meng’s mother wanted third mother Meng and the others to take care of her, but she refused. When she found out that the chief had a son, she immediately expressed her desire to marry him, and that was how they got married.
However, no one knew about Jiang Yao’s past. She said that she could not remember her future after she woke up.
When the couple was still around, Jiang Yao was pure, innocent, and kind, and the couple quite liked her.
After that, the couple died, and the people in the village were unstable, so Jiang Yao slowly showed her impatience.
Gu Nian felt that Jiang Yao probably had not forgotten her past. However, her status was probably not high. Otherwise, she would not have said that she would be the wife of a Bandit. She was only a Bandit’s wife to seek protection in this village, which had many men.
She must have never liked Meng Meng from the beginning to the end and was even waiting for an opportunity to escape.
In her previous life, didn’t she betray the village and offer herself to use the people of the village to find herself a shelter?
Gu Nian regretted that he did not see the results of the book. According to his nephew’s personality, a traitor like Jiang Yao would definitely come out and pester Meng Meng after he had achieved success.
What a pity!
