Chapter 132
No matter how sad the woman is, this day has come. From the day before offering sacrifices to heaven, Pingfan felt that the atmosphere of the whole village had changed.At noon, the clan veterans in the village called the parents of all eligible families in the village, and of course Xiao Niuniu's mother was also called.Fanfan watched his goddaughter leave with full of thoughts, and Fanfan knew what would happen next.Nothing compared to ordinary.

The words of the clan elders are very simple, because everyone knows what will happen once they are selected.

"Don't any of you speak books?"The clan elder looked at the people in the house while knocking on his cigarette bag.The cigarette pipes collided and made a rattling sound. No one dared to make a sound at this time, and the room was eerily quiet.The clan elder glanced around, and finally set his sights on Niu Niu's mother and another couple.

When the couple saw the eyes of the clan elders, they knew that their children could not escape. Fortunately, the other family had sons, and their own family only needed to contribute their daughters. My son is already five years old this year. The next time I offer sacrifices to heaven, the age is no longer suitable, so that I will have my son to support me when I am old, but I have to contribute my daughter, as a mother, I still can't help but cry.

The other child, Xiao Niu Niu, was not so lucky. In fact, he should not have chosen Niu Niu. After all, other people’s parents are there.Once the cow is lost, the woman will not be able to live alone in this world.However, only four children, two boys, and two girls were eligible for this sacrifice to heaven, and the other boy was the grandson of the clan elder, so it must have fallen on Niu Niu in the end.

The clan elder asked Niuniu's mother kindly, "Wei'er, I know it's not easy for you to raise the child alone, but we can do it, after all, if we don't hand over the child, the lord will send troops to kill our village of".

Wei'er knelt down directly, "The clan elder can't be like this, I am a woman, Niu Niu's father is gone, only a child like Niu Niu is dependent on me, if Niu Niu is gone, how can I live?"
The clan elder did not speak. "I think I understand your difficulties, but if you don't let your child go, then my grandson will die. I only have this grandson. Isn't this killing my old man?"
Seeing the tragic cries of Niu Niu's mother kneeling on the ground, the clan elder felt guilty in his heart, "Well, considering your family situation, the village will give you some subsidies to help you survive."The clan elder made a final decision, which represented the final result. Wei'er slumped on the ground and burst into tears.

Wei'er returned home in a daze, and saw Niu Niu running towards her.Wei'er forced a smile, and touched Niu Niu's head vigorously, she knew that the time left for her to see Niu Niu was running out.Tears kept falling from the corners of Wei'er's eyes.

Xiao Niuniu is very sensible, and found that his mother seemed unhappy.

"Mom, what's the matter with you, is Niu Niu being misbehaving and making you angry, mom, don't cry, and Niu Niu will not eat meat anymore when you are here." The poverty of the family makes it difficult to see meat once a year, plus It is isolated from the outside world and cannot go fishing. As a result, Niu Niu is already six years old and has eaten meat only a few times in his life.

Looking at the sensible Niu Niu, Wei Er couldn't stop crying.Niu Niu wanted to eat meat, so her mother tried to make it today, "Oh, it's time to eat meat, Niu Niu jumped up happily when he heard that there will be meat today."

"Daughter is back." Seeing Wei'er's red eyes, Pingfan understood everything. Pingfan didn't ask anything, but went outside to play with his little grandson.

The dinner was very sumptuous, besides a plate of stewed meat, there were also a few eggs, and Niu Niu happily ate it.Wei'er didn't eat a bite, but kept looking at Niu Niu with red eyes.

The atmosphere in the room was very dull, Pingfan didn't speak, although he was very worried about his daughter's emotions, but he was confident that he would be able to solve the matter tomorrow, after all, he was the one who 'really' stood at the top of this world.

After dinner, Niu Niu was tired and went to bed early, and Wei Er sat outside the house with a lot of thoughts, her heart was full of confusion, she didn't know if she could live strong after tomorrow.

Wei'er thought that when the child's father left a few years ago, he had to take Niu Niu to live a good life. He didn't expect that in just six years, the only flesh and blood of the child's father would also leave this world. Niu Niu is still so young, and he has never seen this well world.Thinking of Niu Niu's sensibility, Wei'er howled and burst into tears.

Pingfan walked up to Wei'er and patted her on the shoulder lightly, "Silly boy, there is no obstacle you can't pass, and you will get better."

Looking at her godfather's wrinkled face, Wei'er knew that only her godfather would be able to accompany her in the future.Wei'er threw herself into Pingfan's arms for the first time. "Cry, it's fine if you cry, don't worry, even if you risk my old life, you must save our bull, you believe in father."

Wei'er didn't say anything, she knew it was not easy for her godfather these years, she couldn't use her godfather's old life in exchange for Niu Niu's survival, not to mention that she couldn't get it back, she could only take one life in vain!

The next day the sun rose from the sky on time, Wei'er, who hadn't slept all night, woke up early, and prepared new clothes for Niu Niu that he had always wanted to wear.

Niu Niu, who was wearing new clothes, was very happy and turned around several times. "Mom, does it look good?"
Looking at Niu Niu's innocent eyes, Wei'er forced a smile, "My Niu Niu is very beautiful today."

Didn't see his old father early in the morning, doesn't it mean that the old father didn't want to watch Niu Niu hide for the last time.Wei'er didn't blame the old father, after all, she understood that when people are old, they can't see white-haired people giving black-haired people the most.

At this time, the sound of walking and blowing came from outside, Wei'er knew that people from the village were coming, and soon countless villagers in black cloaks gathered outside the door.

The clan elder limped up to Wei'er, "Niu Niu his mother, it's time to get on the road."In a simple sentence, Niu Niu's death sentence has been announced.

Wei'er squatted in front of Niu Niu, and kissed Niu Niu lightly on the forehead, "Niu Niu, it's the mother who is useless and can't protect you well. Don't worry, Niu Niu, mother will not let you leave alone."

Niu Niu didn't understand why her mother did this, so she burst into tears, and Wei'er hugged Niu Niu tightly in her arms, "Mother Niu Niu loves you"!
The clan elders looked at the weeping mother and daughter, but they had no choice but to sacrifice some of them for the sake of everyone's survival.

"Take Niu Niu away"...
