Chapter 162 In that year, there was a girl named Shadong
"What idiot?" The master's face became solemn, and his eyes couldn't help but look into the distance.
Zhao Wuji thought that he had said something wrong, because after all, he was also the ex-girlfriend of Master Yu Xiaogang.
As a colleague, how could he say such a thing?
Lao Zhao hit Yu Xiaogang's shoulder with a hand and said, "I'm sorry, I was just joking!"
Yu Xiaogang sighed softly: "I don't blame you!"
"Then!" Zhao Wuji wanted to say something else, but Yu Xiaogang shook his head!
Yu Xiaogang didn't say it. Deep in his heart, there was indeed a girl named Silly Dong!
I just didn't expect that a rough guy like Zao Wuji would say it.
Unlike Yu Xiaogang, a noble son from a wealthy family, Shadong is the daughter of a farmer.
Shadong was born in a place called Coconut Grove. His father was a tenant farmer of a large family and rented several acres of land from the landlord's family.
In normal times, 30% of the harvest is paid as rent, 10% is the imperial grain tax, and the remaining 60% is the family's rations.
Fortunately, they live at the foot of the mountain and can usually go up and down the mountain to trap a few foxes.
My father took the fox skins to the market and sold them, while my mother sewed and mended them.
Even when Dongzi was six or seven years old, he had to go to the mountains to collect herbs to support his family.
A family of three, barely surviving!
That's it. The floral clothes Dongzi wore had several patches on them, and they hadn't been changed for several years.
Life was tight, but the family was enjoying themselves.
When Dongzi was twelve or thirteen years old, some wealthy people came to this ordinary mountain village and broke the originally quiet and harmonious family.
These people are all well-dressed, but they don’t even have a patch on their body.
The leader is even more wonderful. He is graceful and elegant.
He rode at the front, followed by a large group of people, who were very respectful to the young master.
Dongzi and his friends' eyes widened when they saw it.
This was the first time they saw such a handsome man, and their eyes widened.
The leader seemed to also see Dongzi, and immediately stopped and stared at her.
At this time, an old woman came over and scolded them: "What are you looking at? Why don't you kowtow to your master?"
After the old woman finished speaking, she put down the things in her hands, knelt on the ground, and put her hands on the ground.
Not only the old woman, but also other people in the village respected him like a god because he was the young boss of these people.
Dongzi was so frightened by this religious etiquette that he put down the medicine basket and knelt down like the old woman.
The young master smiled heartily and rode past her, while the others whizzed past her.
When I got home, I heard the watchman beating gongs and drums in the village and shouting: Everyone in the village, please pay attention. When our young master comes to our village, everyone, old and young, must go to see our young master and kowtow to his family. "
"Mom, who is Shaodong's family?" Dongzi asked his mother, who had more patches on her clothes than him.
"The young master is our young master!"
"Young Master?"
"Yes, he is Yu Xiaogang, the second young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. This mountain village and the villages with a radius of several kilometers are their family's territory.
This time he came to inspect his territory and collect rent. "
"Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus?" This was the first time Dongzi heard this name, and he was full of curiosity.
"Yes, my master's martial spirit is the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Rex. He is one of the seven most powerful sects on the continent. Even the royal family of the Tiandou Empire wants to give their family three points!"
"Mom, what is my martial spirit?"
Dongzi's mother hugged Dongzi and said, "Silly boy, cultivating a soul master is a matter for rich people. How can we have the money to train you?"
Not only does it cost money to cultivate a martial soul, but it also costs money to awaken a martial soul, and it actually costs ten gold soul coins.
At that time, Wuhun Palace had not yet started to provide Wuhun for the poor for free. Ten gold coins was definitely a considerable expense for an ordinary family.
Ordinary families cannot afford so much money.
This creates a barrier, a class barrier.
The poor cannot change their destiny through martial arts training. They can only remain farmers for generations to come.
Soul masters are always monopolized by large hereditary families, but a small number of them occupy a large amount of mountains, rivers and land, and control all key departments on the continent.
Looking at her daughter who understands right and wrong, Dongzi's mother said: "Okay, let's go and greet the young master! When we get there, we must kowtow to the young master and stop talking!"
"Yeah." Dongzi nodded understandingly.
The village chief held a grand welcome ceremony for the young master.
It was in an open space in the village. The young master was sitting high up, with many people waiting behind him.
The village chief and other distinguished people in the village sat with him, and they kept toasting to the host.
People from the village took turns kowtowing to the young master's family.
From an eighty-year-old man to a six- or seven-year-old monkey, as long as they can walk, they have to kowtow to their master.
After kowtowing, Shaodong's family distributed a bag of rice or noodles to each family to express their satisfaction.
Those who were dissatisfied just waved their hands and told them to go down.
Such people have already committed crimes, and they are all terrified. Will the village chief kill them if he turns around?
Soon it was the turn of the Dongzi family. Dongzi followed his parents and walked to the front cautiously: "The Picasso family kowtows to Shaodong's family. I wish Shaodong's family good fortune and longevity!"
The young master didn't let them get up, but looked Dongzi up and down.
Although this girl is a junior and her clothes are ragged.
But there is an indescribable temperament in her body. In the words of the people on earth, she is destined to be a queen. Of course, there is no such thing as fortune telling in Douluo Continent.
"You come to the front and speak!"
Dongzi, father and daughter looked at each other in confusion, not knowing who Shaodong asked to come forward to speak.
At this time, the village chief said: "If you have no eyesight, of course I will call you a fool!"
"Me?" Dongzi was confused. What did the young master call me for?
But the villager was impatient. He stood up and strode to Bibi Dong's side, picked up the dongzi and walked forward.
The three members of the family were all upset: "Village Chief!"
It was the young master who said, "Be gentle, don't scare her!"
After hearing what the young master said, the village chief carefully put Dongzi down.
"What's your name?" the young master asked while eating the orange peeled by his slave.
"My name is Dongzi!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the village chief said: "Open your mouth!"
Dongzi was stunned for a moment, then looked back at his father and mother.
My father and mother were also confused and didn’t know what to do.
"You are really stupid. When you restore the young master's family, you have to speak back to the young master."
It was still Shaodong who opened up for Dongzi: "Look at you, come again!"
Shaodongjia took Dongzi's hand with his greasy hands.
Dongzi's heart almost burst out of his chest. What happened to this young master?
At this age, it was the first time for her to hold hands with another man, and her heart was pounding wildly.
