C558 Your Family Is also Very Anxious
Xia Jie only smiled and didn't say anything.
He also did not ask who Chang'an would bring him to.
But in his heart, he vaguely guessed it.
After knowing about this matter, Chang'an and Xia Jie stayed at Natalie's house for another two days and waited for the arrival of the ship.
Chang'an also took advantage of this time to recover her body as soon as possible.
Her self-recovery ability was increasing. Although the time was very short, her mental strength was gradually recovering.
She sat on the roof, holding a grilled fish in her hand as she looked in the direction of the coastline.
Below the house, Natalie sat in the courtyard to sew her clothes.
Her elder daughter also sat beside her and cried, "Mom, I don't want to leave you. I want to be with you."
Natalie lovingly stroked her elder daughter's hair, "Don't cry. Look at what those people brought. They are all things that we don't have on our island. If you go with them, you will have a better life. There's gold everywhere, and there's good food everywhere. What's so bad about that? "
The elder daughter cried and shook her head. "Nana doesn't want gold. Nana wants her parents and brother."
Natalie sighed, "But this is our island's custom, everyone has to abide by it. Moreover, girls exchange more things than boys. If our family doesn't comply, we will be beaten to death. "
She was also very helpless.
Nana cried even more sadly, "But Nana doesn't want to leave... Wuwuwu... "
Natalie also hugged Nana and cried.
Xiao Chang'an frowned and looked at Xia Jie who was sleeping on the deck chair.
Xia Jie was lying comfortably on the rocking chair, as if he did not hear the conversation between the mother and daughter.
The two of them, who were staying in Natalie's house, gradually became familiar with each other.
They did not live in vain. Sometimes, Chang'an would help them or tell them some things outside.
"Natalie, are your parents willing to send their children away?" Chang'an asked.
Natalie raised her head and looked at Chang'an who was on the roof. She helplessly nodded, "Most of them are like this. Because the child is yours, you can make your own decision. Furthermore, if you give one to me, I can give it to you. There were also some people who would send away their own sisters or female relatives. Because girls can exchange for more goods."
Chang'an furrowed her brows." Then do you know what will happen after they are taken away? "
Natalie nodded," Some people will go to some king's castle to be servants. Some will go out to work, live in houses made of gold, and sit in four-wheeled cars that are as big as whales."
After Chang'an asked a few questions, she did not ask anymore.
Because she knew that the people here really did not know anything.
She could not hope to let a person believe something that she had never seen or did not know in a short period of time.
Only by walking out would they know what was going on outside.
However, the children who walked out needed to be able to come back. Only then would they be able to...
Hearing their conversation, Xia Jie, who was lying on the rocking chair, slightly rolled up his lower lip.
"Sister, are you planning to leave or stay on the island?" Natalie asked curiously, "If you want to leave, you can go with those people. Our boat can't go to other continents. If you want to stay, you can build a house next to us. We can be neighbors."
There had never been any strangers on this island. It seemed like they were all familiar people, so Natalie quite liked Xiao Chang'an and Xia Jie.2
Xiao Chang'an did not say anything else and casually replied, "Leave with them."
Natalie nodded after hearing that and was a little disappointed, "That's true. I guess your family is also very anxious..."
As she spoke, she also thought of something. She looked at her elder daughter and also sighed deeply.
