Chapter 1 Selling Yourself
"A-Jiao, hurry up, people from the Lin family are leaving!"

The deafening knocking on the door and shouts woke up Ruan Jiaoyan.

She felt weak all over, dizzy for a while, and sat up with support, and saw the old gray-blue quilt covering her body, with several patches on it.

Ruan Jiaoyan was stunned suddenly, this is——

The door was pushed open, and it slammed into the wall behind. A person broke in, rushed in front of her with cold air, stretched out his hand to grab her, and yelled loudly, "A-Jiao, what's wrong with you? Don't you Hurry up and get your fingerprints, you won't be able to enter the Lin Mansion to be a maid!"

Ruan Jiaoyan subconsciously shook off her hand, but her words still exploded in her ears, shaking her into a daze.

Her eyes fell on the face of the girl in front of her.

This is--

With a palm-sized face, raised eye ends, thick lips, overly pointed chin, a plum red padded jacket, and a silver hairpin in the shape of a lotus flower stuck in her bun, this is Zhou Yin from the same village as her.

Zhou Yin.Lin Fu.Press your fingerprints and be a maid.

Ruan Jiaoyan jumped up suddenly.

Three years ago, it was Zhou Yin who brought the housekeeper of the Lin family to the village to buy slaves. The men sold eight taels, and the women sold six taels.

At that time, she never thought of selling herself as a slave, but Zhou Yin was her best friend, and knowing that she was full of General Wei, Zhou Yin encouraged her. As a slave in the Lin family, there will always be a chance to get close to General Wei in the future. With her beauty and intelligence, it may not be impossible for her to escape from slavery. Maybe she will be able to go to General Wei's side at that time.

Ruan Jiaoyan was moved by her words, and sold herself to the Lin Mansion for the sake of General Wei.

Isn't this three years ago?Didn't Zhou Yin step on her a year ago and set up a trick to marry into the Lin family?
Didn't she die with General Wei?
What about them?

"A-Jiao!" Zhou Yin saw her looking dazed, and pushed her again, "What's the matter with you? Isn't it just a little sickness? Even if you have a fever today, you have to get your fingerprints quickly! If you miss this opportunity, you will never be able to see General Wei in this life! Do you still want to be by his side, and do you want to repay his kindness?"

Zhou Yin yelled, seeing that Ruan Jiaoyan still didn't move, she simply dragged her out, "Go, go, go, now the housekeeper of the Lin family is at your door, you go out and press your fingerprints first!"

Ruan Jiaoyan was dragged out by her while she was still in shock.

Dilapidated and gloomy main room, one side of the earthen wall blackened by years of burning stoves, a table with a broken leg and a half wooden stick
This is really her home, so poor that there is no home for a grain of rice!

"Cough, cough, Jiaoyan, don't go, no matter how poor we are, we can't be enslaved, Jiaoyan." In another room, a thin girl about eleven or twelve years old helped a gray-faced woman out.

As soon as she saw them, Ruan Jiaoyan burst into tears, she threw away Zhou Yin, rushed towards them, and hugged them tightly.

"Mom! Xiao Huan!"

The bodies of the mother and younger sister were warm, and they were as thin as they remembered, and they hurt to the bones when they hugged them.

"Sister, don't go, what should we do if you leave?" Ruan Huanhuan also cried, "Some people say that to be a slave is to work for others, and you may be beaten to death, wrapped in a broken mat, and thrown away. Don't go, sister"

"Is there a girl in this family who wants to enter the Lin Mansion with her fingerprints?" A man yelled loudly at the door, "Should we go? If we don't, we can go. Although entering the Lin Mansion is to serve the master, you can also enjoy delicious food and spicy food." Wearing silk and satin, if you stay here and wait to starve to death, think about it!"
