Chapter 654: Ah Jiu 2 (2/3)


Chapter 654: Ah Jiu 2 (23) Ah Jiu's home is next to Crouching Bear Island, which is a half-moon-shaped island, only a dozen square kilometers, and this island has a beautiful term called Moon Half Bend.

But in fact, the moon is not beautiful, and only Ah Jiu's family lives here.

All the aquarists throughout the Thousand Star Lake don't like Crouching Bear Island, so much so that those islands near Crouching Bear Island don't like it.

The frightened Ah Jiu returned to Half Moon Bay, but she did not go home immediately, but wandered around the Moon Half Bend for a long time, until the panic on her face dissipated before walking home, Ah Jiu did not want her family to worry.

Ah Jiu's home is very dilapidated, it is a house stacked with stones and algae, every time Ah Jiu comes home, he is worried about whether the next wave comes, his home will be washed away by the lake, but it seems that after so many years, this small dilapidated house of his own family still stands on the shore of the lake in the middle of the moon.

Before she could push the door open, Ah Jiu smelled a very tempting aroma, which made Ah Jiu's eyes light up, she knew that it was the smell of chicken.

It's just that Ah Jiu is very surprised why does his mother stew chicken today?

You must know that the situation of the Ah Jiu family is very bad, they are not those high-level water tribes, they want to eat meat, they can eat meat, these land foods are only capable of being enjoyed by the high-level water tribes, on weekdays, the Ah Jiu family can only use small fish and shrimp, as well as aquatic plants to satisfy their hunger, the last time Ah Jiu ate chicken, it was back ten years ago.

But soon Ah Jiu gave up the surprise in his heart, because the moment he pushed the door open, surrounded by his sisters and sisters, Ah Jiu's mother, a beautiful girl in purple clothes, looked at Ah Jiu with a happy face: "Ah Jiu is back, I will tell you good news, you are going to have a younger brother." ” Brother?

Ah Jiu was stunned, a touch of joy appeared on his face, there are naturally clam men with clam girls, but there are very few clam men, an average of a hundred clam girls can have a clam man, the last time Ah Jiu was able to eat chicken, it was because his mother gave birth to a clam man at that time, and his father, who had always been gloomy and irritable in his eyes, rarely showed a smile, and even happily took out half of the family's savings to buy a pheasant to celebrate.

But the good times didn't last long, a few years later, her brother died because of hard labor, and the smiling face on her father's face never appeared again, and her temper became more gloomy and irritable, which is why Ah Jiu kept going to Crouching Bear Island, she hated hard labor, because almost every time she worked hard would take away her relatives.

His sisters were taken away, and his younger brother, who was also the new breadwinner of the family, died in hard labor.

For this younger brother who is about to be born, although he has never met, Ah Jiu has secretly made up his mind in his heart that no matter what, he must work harder and never let the tragedy that happened at home happen again.

Different from the dull dinner in the past, today's dinner is rare and happy in the family, and just when Ah Jiu was about to tell his family the good news that there will be another person in the family who will be exempted from labor this year after dinner, his mother coughed lightly, and looked at Ah Jiu with a complicated look of guilt: "Xiao Jiu, you are not young this year." ” Ah Jiu was stunned for a moment, and a touch of incomprehension appeared on his little face, which was still full of youthful atmosphere: "Seventeen years old, so my mother?"

” Looking at Ah Jiu's still immature face, Ah Jiu's mother, this beautiful lady in purple, touched Ah Jiu's long silky hair, and a touch of distress flashed in her eyes: "Xiao Jiu, your brother is about to be born, and the young master of Water Snake Island is willing to use the price of exempting our family from ten years of labor to make you his vassal." ” "Brush", Ah Jiu's delicate little face became pale, and dusty memories appeared in front of her eyes one by one, she remembered that Master Mu Scale, on the day of the Dragon King's Day, on that bustling street, the other party looked at herself indifferently, and then bit her best sister to death, Ah Jiu even remembered that the other party looked at her last indifferent and cruel eyes, and her ears seemed to echo the wail of her good sister before she died.

In an instant, Ah Jiu's face turned pale, she stood up, looked at her mother with a frightened face, and pleading in her eyes: "No, I don't want it!"

I'm going to be bitten to death, he's going to kill me!

” "Smack!"

Sitting in the center of the dining table, Ah Jiu's father, a middle-aged man wearing a white robe and looking very elegant and white, stared at Ah Jiu with a gloomy face at the moment, and his eyes flashed with a fierce light: "Enough!"

Young Master Wood Scale wants you by name!

Don't you agree to let your brother die of exhaustion in hard labor?

” "No, I can go to Crouching Bear Island, I can find this, I will protect my brother."

Ah Jiu took out a thumb-sized yellow crystal from his pocket in a panic, and looked at his father excitedly, his eyes full of horror and fear.

Ah Jiu's father looked at the citrine in Ah Jiu's hand, a gloomy disdain flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Ah Jiu coldly: "You can find one citrine, then can you find ten citrine?"

Besides, you have exempted your brother from servitude, what will happen to me?

What about your mother's servitude?

What about those sisters and sisters of yours?

” "There are more than 20 people in the whole family, and more than 200 citrine in ten years, can you find it?

Ah Jiu, don't be willful, you have to think more about this family. ” Ah Jiu's father slapped the table angrily, foaming at the mouth and counting Ah Jiu, the angry look as if the person in front of him was not his daughter, but a slave who worked for him.

Ah Jiu looked around pleadingly, Ah Jiu's mother was avoiding Ah Jiu's gaze at the moment, she was also very reluctant to give up her daughter, she also knew how much hard her daughter had worked for this family, but there was no way, compared to her daughter, Ah Jiu's mother valued the child in her belly more at the moment.

And Ah Jiu's sisters and sisters, when Ah Jiu needed support the most, they all chose to ignore it.

They knew that the reason why they had been able to survive the labor safely all these years was because of Ah Jiu's contributions, but no one knew if Ah Jiu would be able to collect enough citrine in the coming year, and whether he would be able to exempt everyone from servitude.

People don't kill for themselves, although they feel guilty about Ah Jiu at the moment, but thinking about the ten years of exemption from labor and ten years of good times, it seems that they don't feel so guilty in their hearts at this moment?

Looking at the closest people in front of him, thinking that he was going to an ominous place that all the water tribes in the entire Thousand Star Lake were unwilling to go to for this family, Ah Jiu felt unprecedented despair, his trembling voice, staring at his father's fierce eyes that made him tremble, Ah Jiu trembled and whispered to justify: "No...

I...

I can...

Found..."

But at this moment, no one believes Ah Jiu, who is lacking in confidence, and even Ah Jiu himself does not believe that in ten years, more than two hundred citrine, for Ah Jiu, this is an unattainable number.

Citrine is not everywhere on Crouching Bear Island, whether you can find citrine is completely by luck, sometimes you can find two a day, and sometimes you may not be able to meet one in half a year.

Looking at Ah Jiu's frightened and dodgy eyes, Ah Jiu's father waved his hand indifferently: "Enough, don't deceive yourself with lies, in short, no matter what, before this year's Dragon King Festival, you must become a vassal of Young Master Scale, okay, you can go back to sleep, don't go to Crouching Bear Island, I don't want any accidents to happen before the Dragon King Festival!"
