After Chu Fan traveled through time, the most profound feeling was slavery.

In slavery, the most hated thing is the family-born system.

None of them.

So after seeing the scene happening by the Jiehe River, I immediately instinctively judged that what Yan Yi said was true, and anger burned in his chest.

If Yan Yi really gave birth to a child, let alone property, even the life and death of himself and his children belong to the owner, he would never dare to scream on the street.

No matter who he is, if he is forced to this extent, his property will be taken away or his daughter will be robbed. It is really only possible to fight to the death.

It turned out that Yan Yi came from Qinghe Township, Yangwu County, and was indeed the family of the wealthy Zhang family.

Twenty years ago, Li Guo fought with Ji Guo. Ji Guo's army once forced into Qingyun County, burning, killing and looting.

Zhang Dahu was seriously ill and difficult to act, and was generous and righteous. He immediately dispersed all his family's wealth, dismissed his slaves, and burned the slaves in public, leaving him alone in an empty house waiting to die.

Several old slaves were grateful to the kindness of Zhang Dahu, and refused to leave their slave family. They were willing to take care of the last journey and died with him. Yan Yi and his father took Zhang Ruidong, a three-year-old young man from the Zhang family, to hide in hiding and avoiding the military.

The war lasted for three years, and finally returned to Qinghe after it was over. The grass arched on Zhang Dahu’s grave, and even the bones could be bulged. The courtyard was in a mess, the walls were tilted, and the tiles were gone.

Yan Yi's father was sleeping day and worked hard to rebuild a wealthy family business for the young master Zhang Rui on a ruin. The original slaves returned home and supported them.

After the war, all industries withered and the county was desolate. Yan Yipian worked hard to create a small grocery store. In addition to daily expenses and business capital, all the small profits were transferred back to Qinghe and used on the Zhang family's son.

Zhang Rui grew up slowly. At first, he regarded Yan Yi as his brother and Yan Yi's father as his father. All the neighbors praised him.

If the story ends here, it will be a legend of humanity with affection and righteousness.

But things in the world are often unpredictable.

Just as the copper pot holds fine wine, it becomes more mellow in the year.

But after years and years have gone through too long, some odors can't be avoided.

If copper seeps into the wine and accumulates too much, it will become a poison.

Three years ago, Yan Yi's father passed away, and Zhang Rui lost control. He hooked up with some idle men and rogues, and lived a day and lived in brothels and gambling halls. In just two years, he lost all his wealth, leaving only an old house alone. He had no livelihood and relied on his former master to extort the countryside.

Zhang Rui lost all the blessings and incense of Zhang's wealth, and the countryside complained, and gradually began to lose sight of him. He had no choice, because the former slave had already left his slave family. If he had no money, he would ask Yan Yi for it.

Yan Yi was honest and afraid of him, and cared about his past relationship. As long as he could give, he would agree to everything. He tightened his belt and lived a life tightly.

Unexpectedly, no one can hurt the tiger, and the tiger has the heart to eat people.

Just after noon today, Niu Ding led four white soldiers into Yanji Nan's goods store, saying that it was a testimony, but in fact it was a threat.

Zhang Rui took a piece of paper and said that he had found Yan Yi's father's family and gave birth to a slave. Since Yan Yi's father was a slave, Yan Yi and his daughter were of course also slaves. Yan Yi was disrespectful to his master and deserved punishment.

Immediately, without saying a word, two thugs were instructed to carry all the valuable things in the shop onto the carriage, and said that I had collected the shop for two days and resold it to Niu Ding.

All the neighbors knew about his relationship with Zhang Rui and were angry. However, when Niu Ding and the evil spirits of the white soldiers supported Zhang Rui, no one dared to get close.

Poor Yan Yi worked hard for twenty years and raised a cruel and ungrateful wolf. Once he was extremely poor, he even turned his identity back into a slave, and his life belonged to someone else.

This is not over yet...

Yan Yi has a only daughter, Yan Wan'er. She just turned seventeen this year and was born with a very beautiful woman.

It is not uncommon for girls to get married at the age of fourteen or five.

Yan Wan'er is charming, but she is the daughter of a lowly small businessman. Yan Yi doesn't want her to marry a cart, sells sludge and slaughter dogs, so she delays her until she is seventeen years old before she finds a silk shop in-laws.

Although Yan Wan'er's future husband, Sanjuro, has been a few, and her legs are a little lame, she can run away if she is anxious. The silk shop is more wealthy than the Nanfu Store, and the two families can barely be considered a match. The birthday date and horoscope have been matched, and the other party has also sent a betrothal gift, waiting to marry his daughter at the end of the year.

Zhang Rui had been coveting Yan Wan'er's beauty for a long time and had never succeeded. This time, he found the reason and simply blocked her mouth, tied it up and stuffed it into the carriage and took it away.

Yan Yi was trying his best, but Niu Ding and others stopped him.

Next, it was the scene that Chu Fan saw.

...

The setting sun dyed half of the sky red.

Next to the ancient road is full of decayed leaves and dead grass, and the fields are desolate.

The three of them rode horses behind a heavy-duty car and walked slowly, with a faint whimpering sound from the car.

Zhang Rui shook his head and was very proud.

He was in a hurry in the city just now, fearing that after the matter would be a big deal, Yan Yi would go crazy and lead people to chase him. Now that he had been out of the city for a stick of incense, there was no movement. He must have been suppressed by Niu Ding and could not provoke trouble. He would sell the shop to Niu Ding in a few days. Anyway, it would be a loss if he had no business. If he had no support, today's affairs would have not been so smooth, and it would have been a confusing account to the government.

The two rascals he invited made fun of, and one said:

"Mr. Zhang, this trip has gained a lot. The goods in the car are worth at least forty or fifty taels of silver. If you sell the shop another day, you will get seventy or eighty taels of silver. Tsk, good luck..."

Zhang Rui said:

"What do you know? The shop promised Niu Ding and sold him only twenty taels of silver."

The other party smiled and said:

"With Brother Niu's help, Yangwu County can walk sideways. We can't even get to know each other. Mr. Zhang is holding a drink the next day, so will he introduce it to us?"

“That’s natural.”

"In addition to the goods and shops, Mr. Zhang also picked up a treasure, a little beauty like a fairy. What should I do about it?"

"Hahaha... I haven't thought about it yet."

"Don't blame me for saying too much. You have to think about it in advance. Shuiling's young men like this will be sold to Yichun Yard, and at least fifty taels of silver. If they are dewoven, it will be worthless."

"Well..."

Seeing Zhang Rui pondering, another rascal smile continued:

"You know, how could Mr. Zhang lose that little money? If Mr. Zhang eats the first fresh soup, I will try it out too. I would rather not have the money from now on."

"Hahaha..." Zhang Rui laughed wildly and said, "That's right, it's not impossible."

The carriages and horses were bumping, and the struggles in the carriages were intensifying, and the bang was louder.

Zhang Rui rushed to stop the car, and with two thugs, he moved to the rear of the car and pulled the curtain. He saw Yan Wan'er knocking on the wooden board with her head. But she was trapped like a rice dumpling and couldn't exert force. Her hairpin was crooked and her hair was tilted and her head was sweating, but she didn't have much damage.

Zhang Rui whipped Yan Wan'er trembled all over, grabbed the two rascals and avoided them aside, and whispered:

"This girl heard what I was waiting for, and wanted to seek death. She was tied up like this and had a towel stuffed into her mouth. She would definitely not die. But if she slammed her face, it would be unbeautiful. What are the good ideas for you?"

The two ruffians thought for a while, and one said:

"Her head must be wrapped tightly in cloth..."

Another hurriedly said:

"No, people will be suffocated to death... Once this person is determined to seek death, he will not be more careful. Even if he is tied to a pillar, he can still use the back of his head to hit the back of his head. The carriage is bumpy and full of things, so we can't get in. In my opinion, it's better to knock it out. I'm not serious about my two actions, so it's better for the young master to do it yourself."

Zhang Rui was not stupid, and said anxiously:

"No, no. If you beat someone to death, you will be useless to get a bamboo basket, and you will have to pay for the medicine if you are injured. You need to change your method."

The three of them were gathering beside the road and sneaked together. They heard a burst of rapid horse hooves coming from the direction of the county town. They couldn't help but look at each other, standing stiffly looking at each other.

After more than ten breaths, a gray horse rushed to the scene. When he got closer, he was strangled with reins. The man stood up and neighed.

The man was dressed like snow, holding a ruler high and shouting loudly:

"Bai Zheng Chu Fan, hunting down the thief and chasing the murderer. Everyone squatted down with their heads in their arms. If they dared not listen, they would be killed without mercy!"
