Chapter 108 Despair
"Hey, vixen, you're getting married tomorrow."

"My mother said that when you get married, the betrothal gift should be saved for me to marry a wife." Hu Youcai said proudly.

He looked down at Hu Zhaodi, who was curled up on the wooden board and under the quilt, his eyes full of self-righteousness and complacency.

Hu Zhaodi's eyelids twitched when she heard the words "tomorrow" and "get married".

In fact, Hu Zhaodi is not stupid.

She knew that Hu Yongquan and Zhang Guizhi were not her biological parents.

She also knew that the three members of the Hu family were not good to her.

She also knew that Hu Yongquan coveted her.

She knew that Zhang Guizhi was keeping her in order to marry her off at a high price, or to sell her off.

……

She knows a lot, she knows it all.

Just because she didn't say it or voice it out loud doesn't mean she didn't know.

married?

Of course she also knows what it means to get married?
In Dahe Village, those unfamiliar sisters and friends just "married" here.

She also saw that they were all having a hard time.

You will be beaten, scolded, and need to keep giving birth to children.

However, for Hu Zhaodi, there is actually no difference between getting married or not, except that she does not have children.

It's just entering from one devil's cave into another.

She had known that this day would come.

Here, Hu Youcai couldn't help but get angry when he saw that Hu Zhaodi didn't react at all after he said that.

He didn't come here to see Hu Zhaodi looking dead with no reaction at all.

What he wanted to see was Hu Zhaodi breaking down, crying, and even begging him.

In fact, 12-year-old Hu Youcai didn’t know why he wanted to see these.

Anyway, she just felt that seeing Hu Zhaodi acting like a dog in front of him made him happy and satisfied.

Hu Youcai felt that perhaps the stimulation he received was not enough.

So he continued, "Hey, you little girl, do you know who my parents are going to marry you to?"

"She's marrying Uncle Baolai, Wu Baolai—"

Hu Youcai even specially lengthened the three words "Wu Baolai".

"Wu Baolai, do you know who he is?"

"He is an old bastard in our village. He is almost fifty years old. He is an old man."

"He's blind in one eye."

"Oh, by the way, he was married before."

"But he beat the wife away."

"I'm telling you, my mother has agreed to marry you to Wu Baolai. Tomorrow, you will go to Wu Baolai's home."

"How about it, are you looking forward to it, haha..."

After saying that, Hu Youcai burst into laughter.

Hu Zhaodi, who was originally ill, felt dizzy and was not very conscious.

But at this moment, what Hu Youcai said forced her to wake up.

In fact, she is not very clear about who Wu Baolai is.

But she knew the old man who was blind in one eye.

Because in the past year, every time she went to the river to wash clothes, or came back from working in the fields, or at other times, she would find an old man with a blind eye looking at her.

That look was almost exactly the same as Hu Yongquan's.

Anyway, Hu Zhaodi was frightened when she accidentally met those eyes.

After that, every time I met the old man with a blind eye, I would stay away from him.

Hu Zhaodi is like a small animal with keen perception, who naturally knows how to avoid danger.

When you sense danger, stay away from it.

Can……

What Hu Zhaodi didn't know was that many times, danger was not something she could avoid just because she wanted to.

Some people stink like garbage and just keep sticking to you.

Until they achieve their goal. Hu Yongquan is such a rubbish.

So is Wu Baolai.

The same is true for Hu Youcai in front of him.

Hu Zhaodi blinked and thought with the little rationality left in her head, so was her adoptive mother Zhang Guizhi going to sell her to the one-eyed blind old man named Wu Baolai?
Thinking of this possibility, fear suddenly appeared in Hu Zhaodi's eyes.

no, do not want……

Her mouth opened slightly, but no sound came out.

Her intuition told her that Wu Baolai, who was blind in one eye, was also a devil.

A strong intuition told her that she would live a more miserable life with Wu Baolai than in her current home, and she might even die.

Does Hu Zhaodi want to die?

In fact, she had wanted to die countless times over the past decade.

When she was beaten all over by Zhang Guizhi, when she was locked in the woodshed for two days and two nights and almost starved to death, when Hu Yongquan's lustful eyes fell on her...

At that time, Hu Zhaodi felt that she was so tired.

Life is really tiring.

She doesn't want to live anymore.

She thought, if she died, she wouldn't be so tired and in so much pain.

but……

Hu Zhaodi was unwilling to accept this.

Because she knew that Zhang Guizhi and Hu Yongquan treated her like this because they were not her biological parents.

She was just bought by them.

At that time, she also secretly heard Zhang Guizhi say that she was abducted by human traffickers.

He was abducted, not abandoned by his biological parents.

Therefore, she only has her biological parents and family, and they may also love her.

She wanted to see them and thought about returning to them one day.

So, even if I was beaten every day, even if life was very hard.

Even though she thought about death and complete liberation countless times, Hu Zhaodi still persisted.

Just because of the belief in my heart that I want to find my biological parents and family.

In fact, Hu Zhaodi has been dreaming all these years.

In the dream, they were her biological family.

There was her father who would let her sit on his shoulders and take her to see his tall father, there was her mother who always held her in her arms and kissed her, and there was her brother who said he would take her out to play...

In the dream, her name was not Hu Zhaodi.

But it has a nice name: zhenzhen
Hu Zhaodi didn’t know what the specific word was because she was illiterate.

But she just thinks that Zhenzhen sounds better than Zhaodi.

She doesn't like the name Zhaodi.

How she wished everything in her dream was real.

Then, she could return to such a family, with parents who loved her and a brother who loved her and would protect her...

Unfortunately, when she woke up from the dream, she was still in the Hu family's den.

But she still looks forward to returning to her biological family.

So even though life is difficult now, Hu Zhaodi has always persisted.

She told herself that perhaps her biological family was on their way to find her, or perhaps they were also looking forward to her return.

As long as she persists a little longer, she might be able to see it.

But now...

Zhang Guizhi wanted to sell her to the scary old man who was blind in one eye.

Hu Zhaodi couldn't imagine what her life would be like after that.

Can she hold on any longer?

At this moment, Hu Zhaodi was confused and a little desperate.

Hu Youcai seemed to appreciate Hu Zhaodi's desperate and painful expression.

"Just stay here and wait to marry that old bastard Wu Baolai tomorrow."

After saying that, Hu Youcai left with a smile...
