The Path of the Peasant Girl

Chapter 50 050
Granny Ya smiled and said, "Because this is a special request of the young lady, the requirements are quite high, so it is also more expensive to sell, ten taels of silver."

Wen opened his mouth wide and exclaimed.

In fact, she knew that people with craftsmanship would be more expensive, but she didn't expect it to be so expensive.

Seeing her like this, Granny Ya started to beat drums in her heart. It wouldn't be too expensive, so she shouldn't buy it.

The mother seems to love her daughter a lot, so... can't she satisfy her daughter's wish?
Wen Shi said: "To tell you the truth, my family really can't get [-] taels of silver."

Don't say whether she is willing to buy it or not, just say that they really don't have [-] taels of silver at present.

"Madam, stop joking." Granny Ya smiled, "Looking at your temperament and appearance, you're not a person without money."

She tried to persuade Mr. Wen to take the money, and continued to sell: "Don't look at his appearance, but he really does the craftsmanship that the lady said, this person can be used by a few people, he won't suffer if you buy it, don't be fooled, keep you safe No regrets."

Wen: "..."

No, don't say it, she has regretted it before she bought it back.

Wen always felt that it would be troublesome to buy such a person back.

Zuo Shi said: "Auntie, my family moved here from another place. It was a very difficult journey. I met kidnappers on the way, and my family's money was almost lost. After finally settling down, I met other people in the village. People are bullying, so I want to find someone to help us."

"My family only has my mother, and my father doesn't know where to go. Mother, with the four of us, it was very difficult. My sister is only ten years old. She is the youngest child."

"We really can't come up with so much money. If you are killed for ten taels of silver, then we can't buy this person."

As soon as Granny heard it, she knew that he was telling the truth, or that they would never pay ten taels to buy someone.

"Then you don't have much?"

"Five taels." Zuo Shi said.

Granny Ya immediately shook her head: "No, there are too few of us, at least eight taels."

Zuo Shi said: "There are only five taels, we can't take out any more, Auntie."

Granny Ya's face was fluctuating, Mai felt unwilling, and she felt a loss if she didn't sell it.

If you miss this buyer, you don't know when you will be able to sell someone next time.

She can't support this slave, can't beat, can't scold, can't throw, but also manages meals every day, and he eats a lot.

But he is still quite useful, as long as he goes out to buy and sell, there is no security problem.

"Then don't buy it." Zuo Shi said, "Find me a maid, with quick hands and feet, a hearty personality, and nothing crooked."

Granny Ya quickly picked out a few people for Wen and Zuo Shi to pick.

This time Zuo Shi didn't make a sound and stood aside to watch Wen's selection.

Wen asked about their age and the reason for being sold as slaves. After picking two that were pleasing to the eye, the candidate was chosen.

Finally negotiated the price, as long as one or two half.

At this time, Zuo Shi pointed to Lu Sheng: "Auntie, how about giving you seven taels of silver with this Aunt Rong?"

Granny hesitated.

Zuo Shi said: "This is all the money my family can afford, and my aunt doesn't want to sell it, so don't buy it."

After that, he took Wen's and Aunt Rong to leave, and waited for them to take two or three steps.

The voice of the old woman came from behind: "Okay, take it away."

Zuo Shi took Wen's head and said with a smile: "Thank you for choosing, it's a good choice, my aunt will definitely achieve what she wants in the future, and the money will flow."

Granny Ya was overjoyed by what she said, and couldn't help showing a smile on her face: "Forget it, let me borrow your auspicious words, if it weren't for your little girl. Lovely, I wouldn't sell people, just take it as a good relationship, I'll sell you a person at breakeven."

Zuo Shi smiled and praised Ya Po again, saying that if she had any business in the future, she would also hire her to do it. If she knew anyone who wanted to buy slaves, she would also be introduced here, saying that Ya Po was very happy.

On the way back, Zuo Shi and Wen shi followed Lu Sheng and Aunt Rong.

The two returned to Uncle Feng's stall, let Lu Sheng push the wheelbarrow, and Aunt Rong followed behind them with the basket on his back.

Several people got on the bullock cart in Huiqingquan Village.

Chen Changsheng, who was driving the car, was particularly surprised. Not only was he surprised, but the other people in the car were also surprised.

"Sister Wen, who are the two people behind you?" Madam Hua asked.

Wen said, "The people we bought in the town will be my family in the future."

"Bought it?" Madam Hua was taken aback, her cloudy eyes widened and she looked at the two people behind her.

When she saw the words pierced on Lu Sheng's face, she exclaimed loudly, "Oh, why are there words on this young man's face?"

Wang Daquan sneered: "Aunt Hua, you don't understand this. The sinners of the imperial court will have tattoos on their faces. The words on his face indicate that he is his own and has been assigned as a slave. This is a sin slave."

Everyone in the car was taken aback.

Madam Hua's eyes widened: "What, he's a slave?"

Wang Daquan said: "I don't know this. I heard Song Yaowen say that he is a scholar in our village. It should be right. If you don't believe it, you can ask him."

Song Yaowen?
Zuo Shi's ears pricked up and listened, as if the name was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who Song Yaowen was.

Madam Hua nodded: "That should be right, eh, young man, why did you become a slave?"

Lu Sheng: "..."

Seeing that he was ignoring others and not giving up, Madam Hua turned to Aunt Rong next to him and asked, "Big sister, is he really a slave?"

Auntie Rong nodded.

All the people in the car took a deep breath, but they didn't expect it to be true, and they all turned their eyes to Lu Sheng.

Lu Sheng was still sitting on the cow, motionless and expressionless, as if these people in the car were not looking at him, and these people did not exist.

Zuo Shi, who was looking at it with concentration, was speechless.

Everyone was stunned by Lu Sheng's performance, and they didn't dare to provoke him again, and focused most of their attention on Aunt Rong.

Aunt Rong has worked in a big family before and knows the rules very well.

No matter what everyone asked, she answered, but there was not a word of the answer that could not be said.

Wen was very satisfied, and Zuo Shi was also very satisfied.

Aunt Rong straightened her position and successfully penetrated into the group of Qingquan Village. When she got off the bus, she had a lively conversation with the two women in the car, which brought them closer. The two women said that in the future I will come to Zuo's house to visit Aunt Rong and play with her.

With the return of this car, and the fact that Wen Shi and Zuo Shi took the two back to Zuo's house, the whole Qing village knew that the writer had bought two servants.

The curious villagers of Qingquan Village have spontaneously ran to Zuo's house to see the strangeness.

After wave after wave of arrivals, wave after wave of send-offs, Mr. Wen felt that his smiling face froze, and finally sent the last wave of guests away.
