Chang’an Peasant Girl

Chapter 7: being sold

   "Auntie, what's the matter with you looking for me?" Seeing that Auntie Liuhua seemed to have forgotten her business, Quiet reminded her kindly.

"By the way, you all forgot about it," Aunt Liuhua came back to her senses, "something happened, your parents sold you to the landlord Wang, and now the people from the landlord Wang's family are waiting for you at your house, wanting to sell you. You bring it back to the Wang family to be a child for the landlord Wang."

   Xiao Changyi frowned almost invisible.

  An Jing carefully thought about the memory that Lin Jing left her, and then broke into a sweat: "Then the landlord seems to be seventy, right?"

"Isn't it true? People who have stepped into the coffin with one foot even want to harm the girl. I heard that there are already ten concubines in his family, and you will be the eleventh." Angrily, "You talk about your parents, isn't that pushing you into the fire pit!"

  Quietly smiled without anger: "How much did I get sold for?"

   "Ten taels of silver."

   "So few..."

"Short?!" Aunt Liuhua's eyes widened, she couldn't believe it, "A girl better than you didn't sell for such a high price as you, last time, Ah Feng, she looked like she was very shrewd, but she had a big ass. I knew that I would definitely have a son, and I only sold it for eight taels of silver."

  Quiet: "..." Well, since the farm family here doesn't necessarily earn 2 taels a year, she was sold for 10 taels, which is already a lot.

"I heard that Landlord Wang is about to die, and wants to marry another concubine, Chongchongxi. He is so old and has many children. He doesn't care whether the girl he remarries can have children, your parents will take the initiative to sell you to The king and landlord."

  Quietly said: This father and mother Lin is really not a thing.

"Quiet, I'm here to tell you, don't go home first, avoid outside and see if you can escape. You must be a widow when you enter the Wang's house, and I have also heard about those of the landlord. The concubines are not doing well, not even the slaves."

  Quiet smiled: "The Wang family must have my contract of sale in their hands, it's useless to hide."

   "Yes." Aunt Liuhua sighed.

   Quietly thought for a while before asking, "Auntie, how many people have come from the Wang family, have you been beaten?"

Aunt Liuhua frowned and didn't understand why Jingjing asked this. She also felt that today's Anjing was different from the previous Anjing. The previous Anjing was timid when talking to her, unlike the current Anjing, who was generous. No self-pity at all.

   But Mrs. Liuhua still said: "There are two of them. They seem to be members of the Wang family. They are very strong. As for whether they have been beaten, I don't know."

   "There are only two..." Jing Jing smiled brighter.

  Xiao Changyi turned his head sideways, looking at the smile on Jing Jing's face, his pupils shrank slightly.

   Aunt Liuhua swallowed her saliva, feeling that she didn't know Quiet.

   "Auntie, let's go, I want to see how they took me." After speaking, he quietly patted Xiao Changyi on the shoulder, and Xiao Changyi immediately continued to carry her down the mountain.

   After half a column of incense.

   "Let me down." An Jing did not let Xiao Changyi enter the Lin's courtyard, but asked Xiao Changyi to put her at the door of the Lin's courtyard.

As soon as    was put down, An Jing took out the hatchet from the bamboo basket and pinned it neatly to his waist.

   Aunt Liuhua was looking into the Lin's yard and didn't notice the quiet move, but Xiao Changyi saw it clearly, and her eyes flashed with a slight coldness.

In the yard, Mother Lin saw that Jing was back, and immediately greeted her with a smile like a flower: "An Jing, my precious daughter, you are back, come, come in, come in quickly, mother has a happy event to tell you. ."
