第一章(5/6)

                                                                                      黄脸婆小心奕奕地收拣起被蝎子精踢散的金条和银锭：“是啊，是啊，这小丫头虽然白养了这么多年，少卖了不少的钱，可是，用她换了咱们两口子的命，也是值得的啊，呵呵！”
                                                                                                                                                                “只是不能按时交货，买主又得罚咱们钱喽！”
                                                                                                                                                                这对应该遭天杀、雷劈的狗夫妇，拎着沉甸甸的、装满金银的布口袋，怏怏地转回家去，突然，路旁隐隐约约地传来一阵女童的哭涕声，也许是职业上的习惯，这对狗夫妇不谋而合地循声溜下道路：“有小孩子，快看看去！”
                                                                                                                                                                “哈，没准，又会来一桩好生意喽！”
                                                                                                                                                                一个破衣烂衫的农民，领着一个面呈菜色的女童，一脸苦涩地走来，黄脸婆立刻迎上前去，以小商贩老练而又狡猾的口吻问道：“喂，是卖孩子的吧？”
                                                                                                                                                                “嗯，”农民点点头：“家里孩子太多了，天大旱，庄稼都死了，什么吃的也没有，眼看着孩子一个接一个地饿死了，只好把这个小的卖掉，或者是换掉也行！总不能让全家人都饿死啊！”
                                                                                                                                                                “哟，”狗男人按住女童的脑袋，黄脸婆掐拧着女童的身体，那动作、那表神，俨然是在挑选一只猪仔、鸡雏或者是羊羔：“哟呀，这是啥啊，瘦得皮包骨头，气色也不好，连五斤肉也称不出来啊，不要，不要！”
                                                                                                                                                                黄脸婆嘴上说着不要，而狗男人则乘机压价：“呶，”他掏出数块散碎银子，“怎么样，不少了？足够买十斤面粉的喽！”
                                                                                                                                                                “行行好，再给点吧，”农民喃喃着，以乞求的口吻道：“再瘦，脸色再不好，管咋的也是一个人啊，如果不是要饿死了，谁会出卖自己的亲骨肉哇！”
