Houmen's concubine

Chapter 153

Unexpectedly, when Xiuyun was 14 years old, her body began to twitch and her features became more beautiful.

This year, during the spring plowing, the adoptive father rented the cattle from rich man Xu's family to plow the land. Who knew that the cattle went crazy, and not only injured the villagers, but also rolled from the hills into the river and drowned.

As a result, the Jiang family suffered a disaster.

It is necessary to compensate the medical expenses of the villagers, and to accompany Mr. Xu's cattle.

However, how can the farmers have any surplus silver?
After thinking about it, the only person in the family who can exchange money is Xiuyun.

Let alone Xiuyun's adopted daughter, even if she is her own daughter, she has to be sold for emergency money right now.

If you want to sell her to a brothel according to your adoptive mother, you will get more money.

The rich man Xu, who was over fifty years old, found out that the Jiang family wanted to sell their adopted daughter. He sent the butler to the door and said that Xiuyun was used to pay off the debts of the cattle, and he would give a dowry as well.

Jiang Xiaobao, who is only one year younger than Xiuyun, knows that Xiuyun is his child bride-in-law, and usually bullies her.

Every time he gets into trouble, Xiuyun will take the blame for him.

When he saw Xiuyun neither dare to be angry nor speak out, being beaten and scolded by his parents, he only felt happy after being bullied.

At this time, he disagreed, Jiang Xiaobao stared at Xiuyun's chest, a ball of will-o'-the-wisp was burning in his eyes.Said to mother: "Mother, since Xiuyun is to be my daughter-in-law, wait until next year when she and Ji consummate the house with me."

Don't underestimate the ancient boys. Children who are only 13 years old know about men and women, which can be described as precocious.

Most people in the world are afraid of ghosts, but what is more terrifying than ghosts is the human heart.

"Bao'er, don't be angry, think about it carefully, aren't you just looking for something new, but you can't sell it for a good price if you consummate the house, besides, the family is anxiously waiting for money now, why wait until next year when she will be ready to sell it?" She will find you a solid wife again, and you can get a dowry, which kills two birds with one stone, how real, dear, do you think what mother said is wrong?" Mrs. Zhang coaxed, peeled an egg and fed it to him.

No matter how reluctant Jiang Xiaobao is, he can weigh the pros and cons to be fair, and his mother is right.

The money from the resale not only makes the hand much more comfortable, but also makes it a good deal to marry a wife with a dowry!
What's more, the rich man Xu, the bride price alone is enough for their family's expenses for a year.

Knowing that her adoptive mother wanted to sell her, Xiuyun knelt down in front of her: "Mother, please let me stay, I don't want to follow him!"

Xiuyun had seen the rich man Xu with a sultry face and a fierce look. He heard that there were only five or six concubines in his family, and there were more houses.

The adoptive mother said patiently: "If you don't follow him, who will you follow? Could it be that you want to go to the kiln?"

"I can work and honor you," she burst into tears, "I don't want anything."

Even though she already knew that she would be manipulated like an object, she still couldn't accept this fact at all when things came to an end.

There was no sympathy in the eyes of the adoptive mother: "I raised you so much, it's time to repay us."

On that day, Mr. Xu, dressed in wedding clothes, beamed with joy and brought a wedding sedan chair for two people to pick up Xiuyun in person.

Xiuyun hugged the old locust tree in front of the house with both hands desperately, crying hoarsely, but she couldn't get on the wedding sedan chair carried by those two.

What a coincidence, Qin Baozhen had a whim that day, and personally rode a horse with a servant to the tea mountain at home to inspect the progress of tea picking.Somehow, they arrived at the village of Xiuyun's family.

Coincidentally, he saw rich man Xu rape the daughter of the people, and Qin Baozhen, who was quite sympathetic, immediately offered double the money to buy her.

In ancient times, the poor were afraid of the rich, and the rich were afraid of officials.

But the rich are also afraid of the richer richer than him.

Therefore, no matter how unwilling rich man Xu is, he can only let someone carry the empty sedan chair back in a desperate manner.

When Xiuyun came to the Qin residence, she was originally a servant girl.

However, in order to repay her kindness, she was willing to be Qin Baozhen's housemate.

After hearing this, Wang Tong'er could only sigh with emotion: The evil feudal society, the harmful habit of child brides!

Ugh!
Poor Xiuyun, in order to repay her kindness, she became a cheap father's housekeeper.

If you put it on yourself, you absolutely don't want to be someone else's little friend. Besides, there are several kinds of repayment, so don't repay it with your body!
Therefore, looking at the miserable Xiuyun in front of her, Wang Tong'er felt complicated and difficult to express. However, everyone has their own ambitions. She has experienced so many years of grinding, and she may be satisfied with her current life.

Wang Tong'er secretly regretted bringing out other people's unbearable past to amuse her, and at the same time promised Xiuyun: "In the future, if someone bullies you, you tell this young master, and this young master will definitely make the decision for you."

Wang Tong'er said proudly, almost patting her chest to promise: From now on, this young master will protect you!
This made Xiuyun's little face full of worries just now "puzzle" and laughed.

Qin Baozhen woke up when Xiuyun told her about her past experience, and looked at his son with complicated emotions, laughing at Yanyan with Xiao Tongfang, getting along well.

Back then when I saved Xiuyun, I didn't intend to receive the house as a housekeeper, but because I saw that the little girl was so skinny and pitiful, I bought her out of pity and took her to the house to be a maidservant.

Two years later, I almost forgot about her.

No wonder, when I bought her, she was a sallow and thin girl.

In the past two years, although I have been serving people as a maidservant, no matter how poor the food is, I still have enough food.

Qin Baozhen recalled that day when the merchants who accompanied him from other places drank too much old wine in the teahouse, his eyes dimmed, and he regarded Xiuyun, who brought him hot water for bathing, as his own small room, and slept with him, and afterward, he could only take him away. Enter the room to be his little room.

However, Qin Baozhen thought he treated her well.

She lived with another Tongfang Yonghong in the small courtyard of Qingyuan near his main courtyard, and assigned a nanny, a maidservant and a servant to each of them to serve her.

The other small rooms are all crowded together. In the small courtyard at the far corner of the backyard, each person has only one maidservant, and only one nun is assigned to manage it, while the other two servants look after the courtyard gate.

At this moment, Qin Jingjing and Qin Jingxin poked their heads outside the wing room, and asked Wang Tong'er softly, "Brother, is Daddy awake?"

Qin Jingxin followed behind and called out, "Brother."

It turned out that Qin Jingjing got up early and took Qin Jingxin to her grandmother's house, and didn't come back until now after dinner.

Before going to mother Zhu's place when she got home, she heard the nanny in the mansion tell her that the master was sick, so she hurriedly brought Qin Jingxin to visit her father first.

It's just that she is a daughter's family, and she can't just enter her father's inner room casually.

Wang Tong'er smiled at her and said, "You two sisters, come in, Daddy is awake."

When Qin Baozhen saw Qin Jingjing, who was dressed up beautifully, he felt emotional: It's better to be a son, be filial!
I put my precious daughter whom I have loved for more than ten years in the palm of my hand, and I only came to see myself now when I was sick.

　Most people in the world are afraid of ghosts, but what is more terrifying than ghosts is the human heart.

　　No matter how reluctant Jiang Xiaobao is, he can weigh the pros and cons to be fair, and his mother is right.

　　The money from the sale of the child bride-in-law Xiuyun will not only make the hand a lot more comfortable, but also marry a wife with a dowry, what a bargain!
