Chapter 302 Selling Women

Chapter 302 Selling Women
The family they borrowed was named Yang. The reason why they were poor was that the owner of the family broke his leg five years ago and had no money for medical treatment.

After careful questioning, it turned out that it was accidentally dropped when the Buddhist pavilion was being built on Mount Wutai.

Somewhat cold.

Zhao Jinyi bowed her head and kept silent, which fit her current status very well.At this moment, the mud on the hem of her skirt had dried, so it was not so uncomfortable.But still can't wait to clean it up.

It's a pity that Aunt Yang didn't have any extra water in her house, so she had to fetch it from the ancient well at the head of the village.Not only is there no excess water, but there is not much firewood left.Aunt Yang said, you can go to the opposite door to buy it.

Dafu picked up a bucket to fetch water, and Erfu went to the opposite door to buy firewood.

Wei Qi was frowned: "Brother Yang fell down because of the construction of the Buddhist pavilion. Didn't those monks give money to treat him?"

Aunt Yang frowns: "Yes, I have given you a lot of money, but we have no famous doctor here, and the medical workers in the town have come a few times, and the money has been spent, and the leg has not been cured."

Only two legs are worth the money!

Wei Qi was a little angry.He came to Mount Wutai before, and his journey went smoothly. Last time, he stayed at the house of a big family in the village, but he had never heard of such a thing.

But his current identity is that of a broker.

He can only say words that fit his identity: "Buddha bless you, you will get better in the future."

Aunt Yang forced a smile on her wrinkled face: "Thank you."

However, her eyes glanced at Zhao Jinyi who was locked in the corner, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "This little girl is so pitiful, how could her parents be willing to sell her..."

Wei Qi sat on the horse with a golden knife, not paying attention: "There are many children in the family, and there is no next meal, even if you sell a worthless daughter, you can last for two years. Besides, I will give her Selling it to a wealthy family, she can still eat and dress warmly, this kills two birds with one stone."

Aunt Yang gritted her teeth, and said, "I also have a nine-year-old daughter in my family. She looks good and is very hardworking. Look... can you give me a good price?"

Wei Qi was startled, but didn't show it on his face: "It doesn't matter if you say it yourself, I have to see it before I can give a price."

Aunt Yang then called: "Erya, Erya, come out quickly and let Lord Qi take a look."

The dirty and old curtain was lifted, and a skinny little girl stood timidly at the door, her frightened eyes hurriedly passed over Wei Qi's face, and she lowered her head again.

Aunt Yang stepped forward and pulled Erya to Wei Qi: "Quickly let Lord Qi take a look."

Zhao Jinyi raised his eyes and looked at Erya.Although Er Ya was already nine years old, she was only five or six years old in stature. She was wrapped in a baggy and somewhat dirty clothes, with a pair of straw sandals on her feet, revealing her somewhat dark feet.

God's poor!Erya is really pitiful.Just now Zhao Jinyi was still laughing at Wei Qi in his heart for shooting himself in the foot, but now he hopes that Wei Qi can buy Erya.Although the prince looks crazy, ah bah, looks out of tune, but Ying can still give Er Ya a good place to go.

Wei Qi pretended: "Erya is nine years old? She is so thin? What kind of work can she do? The broom is taller than her."

Zhao Jinyi couldn't help but look sideways.His Royal Highness actually knows the height of the broom.

Aunt Yang hurriedly said: "My Erya is the most able to bear hardships. Don't look at her thin and thin, but she has great strength. Last month, she followed the villagers to work at Xiantong Temple in Wutai Mountain, but she came back with a lot of wages. It's a pity There are not many opportunities, otherwise I would not be willing to sell Erya."

Wei Qi raised his eyebrows. King Zhong paid homage to the Buddha at Xiantong Temple in Mount Wutai, and Erya went to Xiantong Temple to do some work. What kind of work did he do?

He glanced at Zhao Jinyi, and saw the obvious curiosity in the latter's eyes.Seeing his gaze sweeping over, he quickly lowered his head again.

Oh, little girl.

Wei Qi said: "How much do you think the second girl is worth? Now, the little girl I bought is born strong, and it's only ten taels if I buy it out."

Zhao Jinyi bowed his head, very well-behaved.

Aunt Yang was a little puzzled.Zhao Jinyi looked taller, but if he wanted to be strong, he couldn't tell.Look at her slender arms and legs, what strength can she do?I'm afraid that if a fire is started in the kitchen, the fire will not ignite.Oh!She understood that the broker must be bargaining with her!

So she tentatively said: "How about the same price as hers? Ten taels of silver, no less. In my family, there are still five children waiting to support."

A look of disappointment flashed across Erya's face.A Niang is determined to sell her.

This Aunt Yang was too cruel, she even bargained and sold herself in front of the child.

Wei Qi originally wanted to put on a show, and bargained with Aunt Yang, but seeing Er Ya's face full of disappointment, he softened his heart: "You can think about it, once you sign this contract, there is no turning back. You will no longer be her parents. , no matter whether she is alive or dead, we can't look for her again."

Aunt Yang hurriedly said: "Okay, okay. Seventh Master, look at our family, how can we find her? I just hope that she can meet a good family in the future..."

As he spoke, there were tears in his eyes, and he was choked up and unable to speak.If the family is doing well, why sell your daughter!
Wei Qi, however, quickly took out a stack of papers from his bosom: "Come on, press your fingerprints, after these two girls, you will be my seventh son."

Zhao Jinyi stared: This prince is really good, he has everything.

Just as the Yang family was selling their daughter, Er Fu successfully entered the courtyard opposite.

The family background of the opposite door is obviously much better than that of Aunt Yang's family.Outside the kitchen, a wall of firewood was stacked neatly.His family name is Zhang, and he has three sons, all of whom are in their prime.Uncle Zhang is simple and honest: "The surname is Zhang, but it is the common surname in Zhangjiatun. Hey, how much firewood do you want?"

Er Fu was about to speak, but saw a tall figure coming out of the stove.

When the man saw him, a sharp gaze passed him quickly, and then turned away quickly.

A young woman followed closely behind and said with a smile, "Brother Song has a really good appetite." Turning around and seeing Er Fu, she frowned slightly and asked Uncle Zhang, "Father, who is this?"

"Borrowing a guest who lives in Yang's house to buy firewood." Uncle Zhang replied casually.

Er Fu smiled at the young woman.Without any scruples, the young woman looked Er Fu up and down, seeing Er Fu's plain appearance, she didn't look at Er Fu again.

Er Fu also had no time to pay attention to her, so he bought fifty Wen of firewood with Uncle Zhang and carried them back to Yang's house.

There is a lot of firewood at fifty renminbi, and Er Fu couldn't carry it all at once, and was about to divide it into several hugs, but saw the young man whom the young woman called Song Xiaoge just now came over: "I'll get it for you."

Er Fu wanted to refuse, but felt that it was too obvious. It is very normal for country people to help each other, so he just smiled and said, "I'm sorry, brother Song."

The two were holding firewood and were about to walk out of the door, but the young woman followed closely, holding some firewood in her hands, and said in her mouth: "Father is also true, the Yang family came to buy firewood, so don't send a few more, just Let me send it over."

Er Fu turned his head and glanced at the woman.The woman's fiery gaze pressed onto Brother Song's body so tightly that it could burn two holes.

Brother Song followed him into Yang's house as if he didn't feel it.

At this time, Aunt Yang just printed her finger prints on Er Ya's deed of sale, and Wei Qi took the paper and blew the ink on it.

The three of them came in with firewood in their arms.

Zhao Jinyi raised his eyes and saw Song Jingxing and the young woman following closely behind him.

The fire that had boiled in her heart before became more and more vigorous.
