Capítulo 1108: Chapter 1108: Captured (53)
“Isn’t that right? You also think Mother isn’t a bad person, so she loves you too much to sell you, right?” An Ning countered, feeling uneasy at the thought of Lian Shi instigating Gao Xiaoi behind her back.
“Xiaoi, don’t you know the kind of person Second Aunt is? She can’t stop gossiping, never saying a good word about anyone. Can you believe anything she says?” An Ning asked again.
Gao Xiaoi shook her head, “I can’t trust her. As long as Mother doesn’t sell , let’s separate from the family. I’ll definitely catch more bugs, gather more pigweed, raise lots of chickens and pigs, then Mother can sell eggs and pigs for money instead of selling us.”
An Ning laughed, “Don’t worry, even if we don’t have money, Father and Mother won’t sell us.”
Years ago, Yan Shi herself was almost sold; she’s not so heartless to do such a thing to others, to let them suffer what she did back then!
The next day, Gao Mutou got up early again.
All morning, the courtyard echoed with the sound of sawing and chopping wood; even breakfast lost its appeal due to his worries.
All he could think about was making money, more and more money to solve his current troubles.
Yet, making money isn’t that easy.
Moreover, fate didn’t give him many chances to make decisions.
Because the debt collectors from the town had arrived.
At that ti, An Ning was outside gathering pigweed with Gao Xiaoi, their basket not yet full, when Erniu ca running, crying, “Second Sister, it’s bad! The people from the town’s gambling house have co to collect the debt. Mother was taken away by them…”
An Ning was startled, cutting her finger as she hurried without picking up the sickle.
The cut was deep, with blood flowing from her finger, but An Ning had no ti to care.
After a few steps, An Ning asked, “The gambling debt Gao Dashu owes, shouldn’t they take Second Aunt and her daughters? Why take my mother?”
“They said Second Aunt and her daughters are too ugly, not worth even a few taels of silver together. Sister Cuicui, Fourth Aunt, and Mother were all taken by them!
Despite being a boy, Gao Erniu had never seen such chaos, inevitably getting scared.
After hearing all this, An Ning couldn’t care about anything else and hurried back ho.
Since the debt collectors have found Gao Family, what about her dad?
The gambling debt Erlaizi owes is now on her dad’s shoulders, along with his injuries, how is he faring?
And Yan Shi being taken, really making An Ning’s head spin, not knowing what to do.
“Second Sister, Mother told to tell you not to go back, or else those people won’t spare you either!”
Yan Shi is beautiful, and An Ning is even more so.
Otherwise, Erlaizi and Gao Dashu wouldn’t have set their sights on An Ning.
An Ning is still young, her looks not yet fully developed, and her plain clothing hides it.
Right now, the family is in crisis, and all the won are suffering. Out of selfishness, Yan Shi naturally doesn’t want her daughter caught up in it.
After hearing Gao Erniu’s words, An Ning imdiately stopped and turned back, shouting to Gao Erniu, “I’ll go ho and see what’s going on. I’ll be careful and won’t let them find . You take Xiaoi and hide outside for a while, don’t go back.”
