I felt the phone in my pocket, turned on the flashlight, shining inside, froze, as the girl said, the more than 10 square meters of the house, there are cow shit and hay everywhere, some places do not know whether it is cow urine or the eaves leaking rain wet.
The girl who was locked inside was dressed very thinly, only a short sleeve with exposed arms, a black sweatpants, I do not know how many years she wore, the knees were mended several times, the pants were so short that they reached the top of the neck of the legs, the good thing is that there is a big yellow cow in the cattle pen, the girl was leaning on the neck of the big yellow cow, see us, the girl curled up, because of the flashlight, she raised her hand Blocked the light, some fear said, "Mom, you do not force me, I will die!"
The little girl beside her hurriedly said, "Big sister, she's not mommy, she's the aunt from home, the one who's going to take me to town, she's beautiful, not mommy!"
Hearing the girl's voice, the girl looked over with narrowed eyes, a clean face a little white, dry lips, it looked like she had not eaten for a few days, she opened her mouth and looked at me, there was no fear as I thought, she spoke calmly, "Is that you want to take my sister to the city? Make her contribute organs to your daughter?"
She said that I could not accept it, but when I thought about it, there was nothing wrong with it, I pursed my lips and nodded, "Yes, but don't worry, I will take good care of her."
She suddenly sneered, "Isn't that the way it should be? They don't understand, do you think I don't understand either? Blanca is only five years old, she's going to have her organs removed, she might even die, you spent tens of thousands of dollars to trade her life for your daughter's, shouldn't you take care of her?"
The girl's words are very sharp, I pursed my lips, did not respond, not afraid to answer, just do not feel the need, if I did not understand why Scott brought me over here at the beginning, now is to know something.
After a pause, she girl looked at me and spoke, "I know my sister can save your daughter's life, so let's trade off, I want you to promise me something."
I frowned slightly and spoke, "If it's reasonable, I'll consider it, but if you're unreasonably demanding, then I'm sorry."
"Take me and my sister with you and leave, I can't stay here and wait to die, my mother is going to marry me to a fool, I don't want that kind of life, I don't need you to do anything, just take me to the city, don't worry, I won't pester you or bother you when you get to the city, I just want to leave this place, I don't want my life to be accounted for here like this I just want to leave this place, I don't want my life to be accounted for here."
The girl's eyes, the future is full of aspirations and expectations, she looked at me, the gaze of true desire, if I am a little younger, I may be heartbroken immediately nodded yes.
Sent back, is considered a life, but the body is not good, there will always be a lot of problems, which is actually considered good, at least back, but some children were not sent back, those who were not sent back to the families of children will also receive a few hundred thousand dollars, so that it is considered to buy the child, just do not know that the child was not sent back is alive or dead.
Each family has more than seven or eight dozen children, a family missing one or two children is not a big deal, always regenerate is, so those who were not sent back to the children, or sent back to the sick children, others simply do not relate to what they were sent to the end of the experience.
Several families in the village moved away after making money, but the few that remained, either did not encounter a wealthy buyer, or the family daughter-in-law has been unable to give birth to, could not afford to take their only few children spoiled, so they keep their own acre of land to live well on the line.
I listened to her speak, my heart was a bit undulating, she looked at me and sneered, "Do you think these people are ridiculous? Just now you saw, my mother gave birth to nine children, I am the oldest, older, not much use for others, so she thought of marrying me out to collect tens of thousands of bride price money, just for tens of thousands of bride price, she did not hesitate to hand over to a fool who can eat shit, if I had not gone to school, did not see the life of children in other places, perhaps, I would be so resigned to fate, but I have seen. "
"Seeing clearly the children who are my age, what kind of family they live in, what kind of life they lead, so I'm not willing, I'm not willing for her to just ruin my whole life, I want to get out of here, far away."
