Chapter 20: Buying people
It's almost time to buy it, it's not too late to see if it's dark, and there is still more than an hour before the appointed hour.
An Ruyi thought about it and thought that it would be better to buy a little girl to accompany Liu Yue, and then buy a mother-in-law to cook and do housework, or buy an ox cart, so that it would be convenient to go to the town later? If you want to buy an ox cart, you also need to buy a coachman. There's no way, I'm used to living a good life in the first two lives, and now I have that condition, An Ruyi is not a person who likes to wronged himself, and he has to enjoy what he should enjoy.
Thinking of acting, An Ruyi happened to be tired of shopping. She took Liu Huairan and Liu Yue into a nearby teahouse, found a private room and sat down. I ordered a pot of good tea and a table of pastries and snacks. beckoned Xiao Er to come in, first gave one or two pieces of silver, and then began to inquire about the nearby people with a good reputation.
Xiao Er is also clever, he is in the teahouse, the news is better than others, and now he is really generous when he sees An Ruyi's move, and he is very happy, and he introduced several people nearby to him one by one.
An Ruyi was very satisfied with what he heard, and rewarded him with a string of 100 dollars.
After drinking tea and eating snacks, the mother and son went directly to the door according to the place instructed by Xiao Er.
Fortunately, the place is not far away, and the small house is no different from the general residence, and it is really not easy to find it if there is no one to guide you. For people's teeth, as long as they act in a proper manner, An Ruyi has no special bad feelings, after all, human trafficking is legal in this world, and you just can't get used to it. But for those who are secretly abducted, and do all the abductions that have lost their conscience, and even robbed young children and girls, if they meet her, they will never be merciful.
Knocking on the door, the door was opened by a strong man in his thirties, explaining his intention, hearing that he was coming to buy someone, the man shouted into the house, and soon a woman dressed up about fifty years old came out. She listened to An Ruyi's request and summoned a group of people, divided into men, women and children in the courtyard for her to choose.
Looking at the people crowded in the courtyard, Liu Huairan had never seen this formation, and looked at his mother with a little uneasiness, but he also settled down when he saw his mother's calm appearance, and Liu Yue was very excited when he saw that there were many people, twisting his hand to break free of An Ruyi, where would An Ruyi let go of her, and motioned for Liu Huairan to pick up his sister.
After all, An Ruyi had seen it, her expression was calm, and her eyes swept the crowd indifferently, looking for a suitable candidate for herself. She looked at the little girl first, and noticed that a little girl who was about seven or eight years old, with a delicate appearance and a little bit of cleverness, was very suitable for her eyes, so she pointed it out directly.
When I asked, I found out that the little girl's name was Lotus, the father and mother of the family were about thirty years old, and there was a four-year-old brother, and a fifteen or sixteen-year-old uncle were here.
An Ruyi looked at other people other than the lotus, and thought it was okay, only asked the two men who would also set up an ox cart and happily patted the board, quickly paid the money, signed the sales wedge, and went out.
The tooth woman saw that the transaction was smooth, and she was very happy to sell three or two small in one go, and saw that although An Ruyi was not dressed very richly, she was generous and did not bargain, and she didn't look like she had never seen the world, and she was immediately overjoyed and had a good impression, so she offered to waive the four-year-old child's sale silver. Anyway, it's an addition, and if you buy it back, you won't be able to do it for a while, and it's disgusting, and now that someone has taken over her, she is also happy to sell her favor, in order to buy someone to think about taking care of her family next time.
The family has actually been in her hands for almost a month, and if they open the sales channel, they will not worry, but she is a soft-hearted person, and she can't stand their repeated begging and begging to be in one place. Outcome...... If An Ruyi hadn't come to buy all the family today, she would have to be ruthless to separate them and sell them, after all, she also wants to eat, and there is no reason to support them, right? Hehe, now everyone is happy.
Out of the door, An Ruyi asked briefly, knowing that the family's surname is Chen, the older man's name is Chen Ping Twenty-nine this year, the boy is his younger brother Chen An is fifteen years old this year, Chen Ping's wife Wen is twenty-eight years old this year, usually people call the Chen family, the daughter Chen Lotus is eight years old, and the son Chen Goudan is four years old this year.
An Ruyi nodded, directly expressing his willingness to buy an ox cart. Ask them if they know the place.
The two brothers, Chen Ping and Chen An, looked a little cramped, but they didn't say much, but they also said that they knew and led the way in front. The Chen family's self-familiar temperament is full of gratitude to An Ruyi for being willing to buy her youngest son, and looking at An Ruyi's eyes is also shining.
She smiled flatteringly, and took the initiative to reach out to take Liu Yue's hug from Liu Huairan's hand: "Madam, Miss, let the slave maid come and hold it, don't be tired of the young master." ”
Liu Yue was unhappy when she watched her dodge, turned around and pounced on Liu Huairan's shoulder, looking at the lotus and the dog egg curiously with big eyes.
Liu Huairan hugged her sister tightly, changed her position to make her comfortable, looked at the Chen family and shook her head to say that she could do it, and she didn't need to take over.
The Chen family laughed awkwardly.
An Ruyi glanced at her lightly, still satisfied with her eyesight: "Don't worry, it'll be good if you get familiar with it in the future." She glanced at the dog who was holding her sister's hand and walking by herself, quiet and not crying, although she knew that the children of the poor were in charge early and sensible early, but they could be so well-behaved for such a young child, which showed that the couple usually taught them well, and their impression of this family was also a little better, and they were basically quite satisfied.
Thinking like this, his tone couldn't help but soften a little: "The coming day is long, Yue'er is good to have her brother to hold now, you don't have to worry about it." There's still some way to go, so you just need to take care of the dog's eggs first. ”
"Thank you, master. In the future, the slave and maid family will be full of liver and brain, and do things for the master. ”
The Chen family was overjoyed when she heard this, she was actually a little worried about President Lu, her youngest son was too young to hold on, but she didn't dare to show it, for fear of annoying the new master. Now looking at An Ruyi's expression when she said that she should take care of her little son, it didn't seem to be fake, not a temptation, so she felt more and more that her family was with the right person, so she hurriedly thanked An Ruyi with gratitude.
She saw that An Ruyi's mother and son were poorly dressed, and they didn't seem to be able to buy a family, but she was generous and generous, and bought her family at once, and she didn't dislike her youngest son when he was still young, he could only eat and not do things, and she was worried that An Ruyi was the new master or a servant woman who came out to do things, so she tried it in the title, and saw that An Ruyi didn't refute the current heart, although the new owner now looks inconspicuous and doesn't look like a rich and noble, but their family is not the kind of person who only stare at the rich. A person who only has a pair of snobbish eyes, as long as the family can be together, what are you afraid of in a bitter life?
She was almost sad for more than a month after being sold by the old owner's family, and she was afraid that her family would be separated, especially after so many buyers came, some people disliked their families and wanted to buy them separately, and those who could buy them all in one go disliked that their youngest son was too young to work. Seeing the Ya woman's increasingly impatient eyes, her heart twitched. It's so torturous. Fortunately, there is no end to it.
