When Li Ziyu arrived at Li Luo's house in an ox cart, Xiao Ou had already packed everything that should be packed.

In fact, the two mothers and daughters had very few things, except for some clothes, which was a purple-black wardrobe for clothes in the east room.

The house where the mother and daughter live was bought a year ago when they first arrived from out of town. Don't look at such a small courtyard, it cost seventy-eight taels of silver.

When I first bought it, the small courtyard was in tatters, and Li Luo gritted her teeth to repair it for safety, and spent a total of nearly 100 taels of silver before and after.

In order to let Li Luo rest more and speed up the recovery of her body, Li Ziyu planned to wait for Li Luo to wake up before leaving.

The main thing is how to do the house, whether to sell it or not, Li Luo has to take the charter.

During this period, Li Ziyu wrote a deed of sale, Wang Tiezhu as a witness, and the three of them signed and signed it, and it became legally effective to file this deed of sale in the yamen.

Li Ziyu asked Xiao Ou again before writing the deed of sale, and saw that Xiao Ou's attitude was extremely resolute, so he had no choice but to follow her.

Two copies of the deed of sale were written, one for the mother and daughter. The silver sold was twenty taels of silver per person, and a total of forty taels of silver was spent, which was the highest price in the Daye Dynasty.

In the Daye Dynasty, the purchase and sale of slaves was only four or five taels of silver, and the highest was no more than seven or eight taels. So, being a slave is really sad and the cheapest. But there is a glimmer of life, and no one will be sold into slavery.

Li Ziyu once wanted to bring the mother and daughter home like this, without writing any deed of sale. But Aunt Osmanthus said that if the Sun family knew, there would definitely be endless troubles.

Li Ziyu asked Xiao Ou about the entanglement between Li Luo's mother and daughter and the Sun family, and listened to Xiao Ou tell the ins and outs of this matter.

It turned out that Li Luo took over the embroidery work of the Colorful Star Cloth Village, because she had been in Shiyan Town for a short time, so she didn't know that the owner behind the Colorful Star was the Sun family.

Since coming to Shiyan Town, Li Luo has bought a house with little money. In order to survive, Li Luo took some embroidery jobs to sell.

Li Luo's embroidery work from the colorful star cloth village is not complicated, it is a cushion with flowers and wealth.

The cushions are first-class in terms of workmanship, layout, and color, so it stands to reason that there is nothing wrong with them. But when the shopkeeper was handed over, he suddenly turned his face, not to say that the embroidery did not meet the requirements and made Li Luo lose money.

This embroidery is worth six or seven taels of silver, but they didn't say that it was worth twenty taels, so they immediately asked Li Luo to take the money.

Li Luo reasoned with them and was kicked out of the door by the shopkeeper, and immediately fainted. Wang Tiezhu happened to pass by the gate of the Colorful Star Cloth Village with a guard, and he was allowed to take Li Luo home. But there is a saying in advance, if you can't pay the money after three days, let her daughter top it.

During this period, Xiao Ou took out all the money in the family, and it was only more than five taels of silver. Wang Tiehammer's family also handed over the only three taels of silver in the family to Xiao Ou, but there were still twelve taels missing.

Xiao Ou's mother and daughter have not been here for a long time, and they don't know who to borrow from, so Xiao Ou is in a hurry.

In fact, the people who live in North Lane, no one has much silver, and there is one or two or two that is up to the sky. Wang Tiehammer's family is still the living conditions of these households, and they only have three taels of silver.

Xiao Ou had no choice, so he asked Wang Tiezhu to accompany him to the Colorful Star Cloth Village to pay eight taels of silver first, and then find a way to do the rest.

Unexpectedly, he met Meng Yichang in Buzhuang, and stared at Xiao Ou with squinting eyes. said directly: "Okay, you don't need to take the money you save, just let this little beauty go with me." ”

Xiao Ou was so frightened that she trembled all over, because she recognized this person named Meng Yichang, who was the hooligan she had met on the street a few days ago.

A few days ago, Xiao Ou went shopping on the street and met Meng Yichang at the door of the grocery store. When Meng Yichang saw her, it was like a hungry wolf seeing its prey, and with a group of thugs, he wanted to snatch Xiao Ou Dang Street. When Xiao Ou was struggling and crying, a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy stood up and scolded angrily: "Lang Lang Qiankun, you dare to rob the people's girls in broad daylight, who gave you the courage?" Are you not afraid of the punishment of the law? ”

The young man's thin body faced a group of thugs with his bare hands, and there was not the slightest fear on his face. He stood on the street with a righteous body, exuding an awe-inspiring momentum that was not angry and self-threatening, which made people dare not underestimate him.

I don't know why, when Meng Yichang saw this young man, he hurriedly restrained his domineering spirit, and accompanied him again and again: "Young Master Fu, misunderstanding, I'm joking with this young lady, isn't it?" ”

Xiao Ou is not without eyesight, she has followed her mother to many places, she is used to seeing all kinds of people, and has tasted all kinds of ups and downs, so she naturally knows that she will accept it when she sees it, so she nodded and hurried home while she was in chaos.

The only thing she was ashamed of was that she didn't thank the benefactor who saved her, and she didn't know who her name was.

How did she know that it was Fu Yingjie, the son of the county magistrate, who saved her, so Meng Yichang let her go on the spot. What I don't know is that because Fu Yingjie saved her, Meng Yichang remembered Xiaoou, so there was compensation for Li Luo's embroidery.

At this time, Wang Tiehammer hurriedly played a round when he heard this: "Meng Tou'er, you see this, you give a few days of grace first, and we will find a loan, after all, no one has so much money at home." ”

Meng Yichang glanced at Wang Tiezhu with a smile, of course he recognized who Wang Tiezhu was. I think that he let him shut down the blacksmith furnace at the beginning, but now he is the guard of the Yuan family, so why not give him a face if he doesn't look at the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha, does he dare to run?

Thinking of this, Meng Yichang coughed dryly and said, "Okay, for the sake of Blacksmith Wang's face, I will give you three days, and if you can't hand over twelve taels of silver after three days, the person will belong to me." ”

Xiao Ou didn't dare to speak, she knew that Uncle Wang was trying his best to deal with her, but the anger in her heart still came out of her eyes.

Meng Yichang looked at Xiao Ou and smiled: "You should feel honored, for the sake of Young Master Fu, I let you be my concubine, I originally just wanted to have fun with your identity, but now with the identity of a concubine, you have to be grateful to Fu Yingjie, hahaha"

Meng Yichang walked away after speaking, but his unbridled laughter was like a magic spell, gnawing at Xiao Ou's heart.

So on the way home, Xiao Ou didn't say a word and walked silently on the street. She knew that there was no reason to talk about it in this world, and that no one would defend her like her mother. She hated the injustice of the world and her powerlessness. It was his own incompetence and disobedience that caused his mother to suffer such an ordeal. Her mother clearly told her not to go out casually, why didn't she listen to her mother.

For as long as she can remember, she has lived with her mother. She has no father, no siblings, and even her residence is constantly changing.

She once asked her mother why she always moved, and her mother told her that in order to see more of the mountains and rivers of the Daye Dynasty, the characteristic scenery of various places.

She knew that her mother didn't tell the truth, and she didn't expose it, and she moved happily with her mother every time, just so that her mother could really be happy.

Fortunately, knowing that Engong's name is Fu Yingjie, even if she is a ghost, she will remember this name, the only boy who has brought her warmth in her life.

Yes, she actually has a will to die. If her mother is alive, she goes to be a concubine for that demon, which is equivalent to taking her mother's life alive, and if her mother dies, it happens to be with her mother, saving her mother from being lonely under Jiuquan.

It's just that they didn't expect that their mother and daughter should not have met the kind-hearted Li Ziyu.
