The first wife of the strongest peasant daughter

Chapter 14 There is no way to redeem yourself!

To be honest, when something happened to Gu Lingshan’s family, many people in the village felt sorry for Gu Jiulang. Although he was a bit weak and gentle, he was really handsome. He only heard the village children scold him as a softie, and he spoke with a strong temper. After all, he was Gu Lingshan’s son. .

Lian's mother and son walked around the village, and the whole village got to know Gu Jiulang again.Make nets, do needlework, embroider flowers.

In the countryside, there are no gentlemen who are far away from the kitchen, but the idea that the man is the master and the woman is the master is deeply ingrained.Promising boys would never do embroidery work with needles and threads!
Gu Jiulang is a sissy!

Mrs. Gu prefers her mother!

When Gu Shilang went outside to collect firewood, he heard it, pulled his face angrily, and suppressed the anger in his stomach.There is no other way for Brother Nine to play Luozi, he wants to earn more life-saving money!Grandma is eccentric, but she doesn't go to the second room every day to eat and eat like they said!Wanting to refute a few words, and thinking of Gu Chuhan's words, the only thing their family can do now is to endure, and they gritted their teeth and went home with firewood on their backs.

The rumors outside went round and round.Gu Chuhan didn't care at all, and buried her head in making nets at home. She has a bad leg injury now, so she can only make some nets to sell.The rest can only be used after her legs are healed!Earn enough money first, and redeem Gu Raniang back!
And this winter also seems to be against them, even the cloudy sky and the northwest wind make it extremely cold.

The village discussed it a few times, seeing that they ignored them and closed the door every day, gradually they stopped talking.After all, in their family's situation, if you don't fight, you really can't even eat the chaff!
However, with the number of times Mrs. Gu and Gu Shilang went to the county, more and more things were bought at home. I haven’t eaten oil for a long time. I made a can, and I can buy cabbage, radishes and vines for a la carte, and I also have them at night. The oil lamps are on, and the bones are bought every three to five days.

Gu Qilang smelled the smell of meat and came over to look at it. Seeing that there were only a few bones boiled in the water, and there was only a little bit of meat that was not cleaned off the bones, he left with disdain and ridicule.

"Qilang! Don't you want a bowl?" Mrs. Gu asked him.

"I don't want to drink!" Gu Qilang pouted.He's not a dog, so he doesn't eat bones!If you want to eat, you also eat chicken legs and meat!
Mrs. Gu also thought of it, and saw him eating chicken legs several times.He stopped asking him, and scooped up a big bowl for Gu Jiulang.

The nest of sorghum noodles and sweet potato noodles, stir-fried shredded turnip, and a bowl of bone soup, is a meal for the whole family.

Compared to the time when I couldn't get enough of bran nests and brown rice porridge, the food now is already considered excellent!
Gu Qilang said outside again that they couldn't even eat, and the smell of meat wafted from their ends for three days, it was all boiled bones!Those who are greedy have boiled their bones!I'm so poor!

However, Gu Chuhan's legs were much better than before because of the bone broth.

"Then keep drinking! Wait till we're done!" Mrs. Gu continued to buy bones.

"Hmm!" Gu Chuhan responded.In addition to playing the network, do some rehabilitation slowly.

A month and a half passed in the blink of an eye, and they finally saved five taels of silver as the New Year passed.

Gu Chuhan looked at the pieces of broken silver, and at her hands that were swollen and swollen like radishes with frostbite, and finally exhaled, "Go! Redeem the second sister first!"

The Chinese New Year is approaching, and the taste of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger. They are already missing two people, and they will die and be exiled. They will never see each other again in this life.Gu Raniang sold herself again, fighting for so long just to redeem her!Gu Pozi, Gu Shilang, and Gu Ruoniang have no objections at all.

Although Gu Ranniang is a deed of living, it has been sold for five years, and it has not expired yet. Without the grace of the master, she cannot redeem it.So both Gu Chuhan and Mrs. Gu came over.

At the back door of Qin's house, it was heard that they were looking for Gu Raniang. A woman asked them to wait and went in to call Gu Raniang.

After waiting for a long time, Gu Raniang trotted over, "Grandma! Jiulang! Why are you here?"

Seeing her, Mrs. Gu was wearing a dark orange gown and trousers, with her maid's hair tied up, her eyes turned red, "Mother Ran! We have saved enough money to redeem you! Tell Master Qin and Mrs. Qin, we will redeem you." Home! Let's go home for the New Year!"

Gu Raniang was also excited when she heard it, "That's four taels, how did you save it!? It's almost Chinese New Year, have you bought enough food for the New Year?"

"I bought it! It's enough for the New Year's Eve! I can eat it until February! Now I'm waiting to redeem you for the New Year's Eve!" Mrs. Gu said with red eyes.

Gu Chuhan took out the silver bag and showed her, "Although the deed of life has not expired, let's add one or two more, tell them, and redeem you to go home!"

Gu Raniang couldn't hold back the tears when she saw that the silver pieces were broken, "Jiulang's leg isn't healed yet, first take the silver and let Dr. Han treat it for Jiulang, and let's talk when it's completely cured! "

"I've already seen it, it's almost ready! Redeeming you is the top priority now!" Gu Chuhan said.

Mrs. Gu also urged, "Mother Ran! There was no other way before, but now we have saved enough money! We are all at home waiting for you to come home!"

Gu Raniang burst into tears, stopped talking, nodded repeatedly, wiped away her tears, and went back to the mother in charge to plead for mercy.

She had only been working in the Qin family for less than two months. When the mother in charge heard about the redemption, she immediately turned pale, "If you have no money, come to the Qin family to sell yourself. Tang? Or do you think that the deed of sale with your fingerprints is fake!? Your family has the final say in this Baihe County!?"

She asked several questions one after another, and Gu Raniang's face turned pale after drinking, "Mother Chen! I...my family is really difficult, and my family is now..."

Mother Chen snorted angrily, "Your family is in trouble, whose family is not!? Your family is in trouble and you are justified!? Your family is poor, so we have to give you money!?"

Gu Raniang opened her mouth, unable to speak.

"Even if you sold the contract of employment, you sold it for five years, and you didn't even work for five months. If you want to redeem yourself, there is no way!" After Chen's mother finished speaking, she turned around and left.

Gu Raniang burst into tears.

The maid who shared the room with her came over to persuade her, "You have already sold yourself anyway, here you can eat and drink, and you don't have to worry about food and clothing. The money may be earned by the family. Now it is not yet the age limit, and you are not allowed to redeem yourself. You might as well stop thinking about it and let your family take the money and go home to handle urgent matters! Isn’t your family still in debt? Jia Ansheng!"

Gu Raniang bit her lip and clenched her fists tightly for a long time before she came out to find Mrs. Gu and Gu Chuhan.

Seeing her expression, Gu Chuhan knew that the redemption was rejected, "Don't worry, I'll find a way!"

"Should we add an extra tael of silver and not let us redeem ourselves?" Mrs. Gu asked anxiously.

"I... I've been sold for five years, and I've only been employed for fifty days. I can't redeem it!" Gu Raniang was about to say that she forgot to add more money, but after thinking about what her roommate persuaded her, she changed her words again, "Actually, I'm pretty good at the Qin family. Good! There is food, drink, and new clothes to wear! I heard that money will be given out after the New Year! You don’t need to rush to redeem me, first fix the house!"

Mrs. Gu stomped her feet anxiously, "Why don't you let the ransom be redeemed!"

Gu Chuhan held her arm and told her not to worry, "I'll figure it out!"

"What can you do? Can you give them more money?" Mrs. Gu asked hurriedly.

Gu Chuhan shook his head.
