Farmhouse Qiaofei

Chapter 5
"Mother, look at Shao'er, she looks like she was kicked out by the Zhu family. Maybe the Zhu family doesn't want her anymore." A tall man who looked to be in his thirties , said with Liu with a smile.

Bai Shao blinked, searched hard in his mind, and finally remembered that this person turned out to be his uncle, the eldest son of the Bai family, Bai Chuanqiang.

"We signed a contract with the Zhu family. How can we say that we don't want it?" Liu was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "If the Zhu family doesn't want the fifth sister, wouldn't the Zhu family want to take our 20 taels of silver?" go back?"

Bai Chuanqiang was taken aback for a moment, and hesitated a little uncertainly, "It shouldn't be so, the Zhu family has a big business, and they don't care about our 20 taels of silver..."

"It's mother." Immediately afterwards, a young man in his twenties next to Bai Chuanqiang also smiled and said, "How old is Shaoer, can she go back to our house alone? This must be sent back by the Zhu family." Yes. Besides, since they send people back and don't enter Bai's house, they definitely don't want money."

"This useless money-loser can't even be a good maid." After hearing the persuasion of her two sons, Mrs. Liu finally put her heart back in her stomach, but still looked at Bai Shao and her daughter with a cold face, "The Zhu family It's your luck that you didn't come to ask for you. The third child, get up from the ground quickly, and don't let others say that I, a mother-in-law, abused you."

After finishing speaking, he no longer looked at Wu Shi on the ground, turned around and went back to the main room.

"It's good, it's good, Shao'er doesn't have to be a maid for someone else." A large group of people left, leaving only Wu weeping with joy, holding Bai Shao to choke and wipe away tears.

Bai Shao sighed in his heart.

Being sold to be a maid is one thing and two things.

Just now Mrs. Liu only said that she would not send her to Zhu's house, but there are other Yuanwai's.

Seeing how that miser Liu was, she asked her to sell her granddaughter for 20 taels of silver.

It is not ruled out that there will be a next time.

However, if she knew that Bai Shao was actually sold for 50 taels of silver?
Almost instantly, Bai Shao thought of a plan in his heart.

She wanted to punish the person who sold herself to the brothel, and also made Liu Shi dare not sell her again.

Whether it is being sold to a brothel, or to be a maid.

Bai Shao is not willing.

"Get up." Thinking of this, Bai Shao supported Wu Shi's arm and pulled her up from the ground, "Your head is broken, I'll take you back to the house and wrap it up."

Although it wasn't long before I met Wu Shi, the behavior of Wu Shi's nurse had already moved Bai Shao, but she didn't like to call "mother" by nature, so she omitted the word "Mother" and only had Mrs. Wu, according to the memory in her mind, took her back to the side house on the west side.

I found a wooden basin with broken corners on the ground, scooped two ladles of water into the large vat outside, took another sweat towel, put it in the water, rubbed it a little, took it out again, and twisted it halfway. Dry.Bai Shao began to wipe the blood on Wu's face.

While wiping, Bai Shao was still talking to Wu Shi, "Why is my grandma at home? Where's my grandfather? Where's my father?"

In Bai Shao's memory, she has a father and a mother, a grandfather and a grandmother, an uncle and a fourth uncle, but when she returned to the Bai family today, she did not see the old man of the Bai family and Bai Shao's father.

But in Bai Shao's plan, without these two people, her plan would be greatly reduced, that's why she asked such a question.

Mrs. Wu sighed and did not speak.

When Bai Shao was changing the water for the sweat towel, she inadvertently saw the pain and regret in Wu's eyes, and was a little puzzled.

"Shao'er, I know you hate your mother for not being able to protect you...you don't even call out for your mother...I'm sorry for you..." Wu said to herself, "this time, I didn't watch you alone, you It was sold by your milk, what about the next time, what if there is a next time."

Bai Shao suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.

She just can't pronounce the word "mother", but it doesn't mean she hates Wu Shi.

"No." Bai Shao didn't want Mrs. Wu to be suspicious, so she explained, "I don't blame you, I just want to know, where are my grandfather and father?"

"They went to your aunt's house." Wu said in a low voice, "Your brother and sister went to dig shepherd's purse, and they will be back after the party. As for your father and grandfather, they should be back today."

It turns out that Bai Shao has a brother and a sister.

This memory does not exist.

It seems that it really fell on the head, and the memory was smashed into pieces.

Bai Shao touched the big scab on the back of her head, and couldn't help sighing.

Wu's gaze also followed her hand and landed on Bai Shao's face.

Only then did he put all his heart and soul into keeping the child, but he didn't notice that a good little girl was beaten like a pig's head.

That immature little face was covered with bruises, it was as pitiful as it could be.

Wu's eyes that had just dried up were filled with tears again.

"My son..." She hugged Bai Shao and burst into tears again.

Perhaps the voice was too loud, which alarmed others.Liu's angry voice came from the main room, "Why are you crying? You're back. If you cry again, get the hell out of here. You're upset."

Wu hurriedly stretched out her hands to cover her mouth, suppressing her crying, but because she couldn't suppress it, she let out a strange choking sound.

Such a strong mother-in-law, such a cowardly daughter-in-law.

Bai Shao sighed, twisted the sweat towel in his hand to dry a little, and continued to wipe Wu's forehead carefully.

In the middle of the rubbing, there was a sound of opening the door outside the house on the west side. Bai Shao turned her head and saw a girl about eleven or twelve years old leading a boy of the same age, putting a basket full of shepherd's purse on the ground .

Xu Shi saw her, and the girl came over with a look of astonishment, "Bai Shao? Why are you here? Didn't you go to the second aunt's house?"

Bai Shao blinked and smiled, "No, I'm back."

Others, but refused to say more.

Bai Shao is a sensitive person, and she can tell at a glance that this sister's attitude towards her is not friendly. Although she doesn't know what happened, she is obviously not someone who puts a hot face on a cold ass.

On the other hand, Mrs. Wu suppressed her sobs, and said in a low voice, "You don't know, Wei'er, your sister was not sent to your second aunt's house at all, but was...sold to Zhu's house as a maid by your nurse..."

"Sold?" Bai Wei was stunned for a moment, and a complex light flashed in his eyes.

After a while, she pursed her lips and said indifferently, "You deserve it if you sell it. Whoever made her so close to the people in the main room deserves to be sold and count the money."

"Wei'er." Wu Shi looked at Bai Wei with some reproach, "Shao'er is your younger sister, she is still young and ignorant... It's also my fault, I can't always protect her, that's why she wanted to talk to her uncle. Mother, get close to her grandma..."

"It's because you can't protect her, mother, so she gets close to auntie, and even looks on coldly when you are scolded by my grandma, and even adds insult to injury. Then such a girl, don't mind." Hearing Wu Shi's words, Bai Wei was furious. Once she came out, "Since she wants to get close to my aunt and my second aunt, she should go to my aunt and my second aunt and cry and complain to my aunt if she is sold, what she is doing in our house."

Bai Shao listened to their conversation, a little dazed.

It turned out that Xiao Bai Shao was not close to Wu Shi and Bai Wei.

Moreover, it seems that he is so fond of Bai Chuanqiang's daughter-in-law, Qianshi, that he has separated from his own sister Bai Wei.

But even so, just now, Mrs. Wu kowtowed desperately to Mrs. Liu, just to keep Bai Shao.

Bai Shao was a little shocked by this all-inclusive maternal love.

"I was wrong." She held the sweat towel in her hand and murmured, "I was wrong, mother, I was wrong before..."

Her "mother" yelled until Wu burst into tears.

"You, you haven't called my mother for a long time..." Wu choked up and said, "I thought you were going to hate me for the rest of your life... I'm sorry Shao'er, I'm a useless mother, I can't protect you you……"

Bai Shao clenched the sweat towel in her hand, let it go after a long time, and finally clenched it tightly again.

"No, mother, how could it be?" Bai Shao smiled, squeezed out the water in the sweat towel, and continued to wipe the wound carefully for Mrs. Wu, "You are my mother, the one who gave birth to me and raised me." , it’s too late for me to get close to you, how could I hate you... In the past, I was ignorant..."

Wu Shi loves Bai Shao very much, so she is very easy to coax, but just admitting a mistake and saying a few good words, she is very satisfied and let go of the past.

But Bai Shao's eldest sister, also known as Bai Wei, is very difficult to deal with.

"Who wouldn't say nice words? Besides, you're called so nice because only your mother is protecting you in the entire Bai family."

The last sentence, Bai Wei seemed to be gritting his teeth.
