Chapter 124 Begging the Girl to Buy It

Chen Fan smiled and said, "We have given it a new name, called Cotton. Everyone makes a cotton coat, and you all have it too."

"We have it too?" Xiu Niang's eyes turned red.This is a precious thing.

"When the big field is planted with cotton next year, we will have more cotton to make winter clothes."

The embroiderer excitedly accepted the job of making cotton clothes.

Chen Fan was about to leave, but Xiu Niang opened her mouth and held back.

"Do you have something to say?" Chen Fan looked at her.

Xiu Niang hesitated for a moment, then knelt down: "Please buy my niece."

Chen Fan didn't speak.She is not used to people kneeling in front of her and talking like this, and she doesn't want people to ask her to do something in front of her.

Xiu Niang lowered her head and said: "My elder brother and sister-in-law have never been very kind to her, beating her and scolding her. She is the eldest in the family, and she has two younger brothers and a younger sister. This time her family wants to sell her. "

"You are in Wangjiadun every day, how do you know about your brother's house?"

Xiuniang hesitated for a moment: "The sister-in-law of Wang Xiaoshan's family in front of the village married into my mother's village. She came to see her sister and told me about my brother's family. Wang Xiaoshan's daughter-in-law told me."

That embroidered lady suffered a family change.Her husband often drank heavily and beat her when he was drunk.Even though she was pregnant, his fists showed no mercy.She had a miscarriage and bled profusely.Seeing that she was half dead, the man wanted to sell her.She used to work at the Liu family's Xiufang, when Xiufang learned about her family's affairs, she sent someone to beat up the man, and signed a letter of resignation.When Chen Fan wanted to find Xiuniang, the Liu family asked her to come along and asked Chen Fan to sign a death contract with her.

She was alone, following Chen Fan safely, and lived in the countryside.

"Your brother and sister-in-law are so virtuous?" Chen Fan sneered.The embroidered lady buried her head even lower.

"What are you going to ask her to do?" Chen Fan asked her.

"She is 14 years old, she can do any job, and she cooks delicious food. The family will sell her to an old squire to be a concubine. That old man has some tricks, and several concubines have been tortured to death. I am also anxious, You talk too much in front of the girl, please punish me."

"Chu Sheng!" Chen Fan shouted.Chu Sheng came over.

"You tell her the name of the village and the location of your brother's house, and she will check it out." Chen Fan said to Xiuniang.

The embroiderer thanked repeatedly.

"Don't thank me in a hurry, Chu Sheng wants to check. Get up." Chen Fan left after speaking.

She went to Zhang Ci and talked about preparing to travel.The sweet potatoes at Yema Mountain and Qijiadu are almost ready to be harvested, and the rice needs to be checked.The two children of the Liu family have already gone home to report the application to the adults.

"I went there recently. The sweet potato vines are very lush, and the villagers would pick some and fry them. The rice grows very well, but it feels very short, shorter than any rice I have seen." Zhang Ci is very strange.

Chen Fan has been there several times, inspecting the growth of sweet potatoes, teaching the villagers how to turn the vines and pick the tops, and told them that the vines of sweet potatoes can be picked off and eaten as vegetables.The nursing home on Zhuangzi over there also feeds pigs with sweet potato vines.

Many villagers have asked Chen Fan why the rice is so short.She only said one sentence: "Good things are different. Then you will understand how good it is."

Chu Sheng came back in half a day, and the situation was similar to what Xiuniang said.

"How should this girl be arranged?" After all, the embroiderer is 20 years old, and the sculptor is also a lonely middle-aged man. Buying them just happened to give them a shelter and a place to work.The little girl was only 14 years old, even if she was asked to work in a snack bar, Chen Fan felt uncomfortable at this age.The risk of simply hiring is too great, and the best relatives are endless troubles.

"Just buy it. There are many teenagers who work outside the home. Meeting a kinder master is also a kind of protection for her. It is much better than being tortured by others." Zhang Ci said.

There are still many people who are slaves and handmaids at the age of seven or eight.

Chen Fan was relieved.She can't change the system, so just be a kind host.To open a shop requires manpower, and if Xiu Niang asks her, she will appreciate her.

Hong Feng snatched the little girl over the next day.Yes, snatched it.Hong Feng "passed by by chance", thought the little girl was pretty, and got into a fight with the old squire.In the end, Hongfeng frightened them, gave the family five strings of money, and threatened Xiuniang's elder brother and sister-in-law that if they dared to have any thoughts that they shouldn't have in the future, they would break their legs.

Chen Fan looked at the little girl, she was so thin, her face was pale.If you take care of it better, its appearance is also pitiful.

She was still in a state of being frightened and stupid. Seeing Chen Fan just knelt down, she didn't know what to say.When she saw Qin Xiuniang, it was like a dream: "Guy? Where is this?"

Xiuniang hugged the little girl, tears streaming down her cheeks: "This is a good family, you won't be tortured like that."

The little girl looked at Chen Fan and Zhang Ci, and guessing that they were the owners of the house, she kowtowed twice and said, "Thank you, Mr. and Miss, for saving me. My surname is Qin, and my name is Qin Daya. Be like an ox like a horse, and repay the kindness of the son and the girl for saving each other."

"You don't need to be an ox or a horse, just work hard and be loyal to the Lord. My surname is Zhang, and the girl's surname is Chen. This is Granny Zhou. You learn to cook with her first."

Chen Fan looked at her: "From now on, your name will be Qingtang."

Xiuniang took Qingtang down.Chen Fan went to Han's house.

Chen Fan asked how Wang Dazhu's leg was doing, and he said it was much better, so he went into the room.

"It's really thanks to the girl, otherwise we don't know if we can get through it." Han has said this several times.

"God will not treat good people badly. You are kind-hearted and hard-working, so you will be able to live happily ever after, and you will come through all hardships."

Most of the fields of Wang Dazhu's family have been rented out to others, and they didn't care about them during that time.When Dazhu's health improved, Han would earn some money by doing embroidery work.

"I'm going to open a small shop in the city and make some food. Uncle Wang's legs are not convenient for carpentry. If he is willing, I hope he will come to the shop to help. Some jobs still need men to do it. You can also Work in the store. There are a few rooms in the backyard where you can live in the store."

Han's eyes lit up, then darkened again: "Can we do it? My cooking skills are very average."

Chen Fan smiled and said, "Your cooking tastes pretty good. Granny Zhou also knows some cooking methods, so you can follow along first. It will be a while before you leave the shop."

Han happily agreed.

"Would you like to go to Widow Shen's house? Both she and her mother-in-law are cool people."

Chen Fan nodded: "I'll go and have a look later."
