Chapter 513: Fighting wits and courage
Qi Chengfeng immediately hugged Su Wanwan into his arms, turned around, protected Su Wanwan into his arms, his steps were light, his feet stepped on the hoe on the ground, his voice rose sharply, and he said angrily: "Don't do it here!" If it hurts my wife and children, I will make you look good!" ”
The villagers were immediately silenced, and the villager who was holding the hoe was trampled on the ground, and the black and red marks appeared on his hand holding the hoe, although he was angry in his heart, he still withdrew his hand, and when Qi Chengfeng and Su Wanwan entered the house, they wanted to pick up the hoe with their hands, but they found that they couldn't hold it with their hands!
There are several broken hand bones!
The villager was so angry that he spat at the door and immediately ran home.
Su Wanwan, who was in the room, could clearly hear what the people outside the door were discussing, and when she heard the content clearly, Su Wanwan was so surprised that she was stunned!
The villagers are discussing how to sell their daughter for a high price!
These fools!
Su Wanwan looked at it angrily, and entered the house angrily, as the so-called out of sight and out of mind, Su Wanwan knew that she couldn't stop it, so she thought it was better not to hear it.
After entering the house, Su Wanwan lay down, always feeling very uncomfortable, but still sat up in front of the window with a stool.
A group of men in cloth clothes picked up gongs and drums and several carriages and appeared outside, and as soon as they struck, a hearty voice came out, saying, "Is there a family that sells daughters?" Come here! I want all my unmarried daughters from eight to fifteen years old, and one will cost at least ten taels of silver! If it's good-looking, I'll give you an extra tael of silver!" ”
The villagers dispersed in a hurry, and I don't know how long it took for a group of people to come over with their daughters, and the adults were smiling, while the daughters were crying and chirping, not knowing what to do, crying and begging, but it was useless.
Su Wanwan looked at this scene, her heart sank, she wanted to stop this status quo, and she knew that her strength was meager and she couldn't get rid of the ignorance of these people, but she still couldn't hold it back, and walked over, but was stopped by Qi Chengfeng before she went out, Qi Chengfeng said, "What are you going to do?" They think that it is better to sell their daughters for some money than to disappear, and those women are also afraid of death, and they feel that going missing is more terrible than being sold, this is their choice, and you can't stop it. ”
Su Wanwan was silent for a long time, raised her head, looked at Qi Chengfeng, and said, "Xianggong, if it is a daughter who is born, and there is a disappearance case in the village in the future, tell me, what will you do?" ”
"My daughter, I naturally want to spoil her, I will definitely protect her, send a hundred guards to surround her, whoever wants to steal, whoever wants to buy can't touch a hair of her! I wouldn't sell her, my daughter, sold, that would seem so useless to me! ”
As soon as these words came out, the haze in Su Wanwan's heart disappeared, and her eyes looked at Qi Chengfeng faintly, which gradually became moist, Su Wanwan slowly leaned her head into his arms and said in a low voice: "It's really good to be fair." ”
"You are naturally the best man in the world." Qi Chengfeng laughed lightly, raised his hand and rubbed Su Wanwan's long hair, and the two stood by the door, which made many people envious, they were really a couple.
Fang Cai Qi Chengfeng's words were impassioned and righteous, and many villagers blushed, but helplessly, they didn't have that ability, they couldn't afford to raise their daughters, and they would rather sell their daughters at the risk of losing them!
Su Wanwan thought about it, but she still couldn't bear to let these women be sold, and said loudly: "I am willing to pay a tael more than Ya Po to buy these women!" ”
"What do you mean, lady?" When the tooth woman heard this, she was very angry, walked over to Su Wanwan, and angrily took the paper that she had almost signed and drawn, and said, "Madam, you are young, do you also want to do the work of buying and selling human beings?" Isn't that bad? I'll see you be your wife quietly! ”
"I'm going to buy it, what can you do with me? Anyway...... I have more money than you! Su Wan said in a cheerful voice.
The tooth woman hesitated, thinking that the money given by the proprietor was only given fifteen taels of silver, a girl, if she raised the price again, she would not earn much silver!
But if she can't buy a girl, she won't have a single silver! Ya Po thought for a while, and said angrily: "I'll pay twelve taels of silver to buy a girl!" ”
The villagers on the side all watched, they were silent, but they were very excited, anyway, they were selling their daughters anyway, so it was better to sell them to people with high prices!
Su Wanwan said again: "Thirteen taels of silver!" ”
The maid was so angry that she said, "Fourteen taels of silver!" ”
“……”
Su Wanwan thought for a moment, and was about to speak again, Qi Chengfeng held Su Wanwan's hand and said to the tooth woman: "I wish you a prosperous business." ”
What are these words? This is obviously not to mention the price!
Thinking about it left and right, it seems that it is deliberately asking Ya Po to pay a high price! The tooth woman was very angry, looked at Su Wanwan, and was so angry that she didn't fight anywhere, and the person on the same side whispered: "Since she doesn't buy it, you don't expect me to raise the price, a girl is still ten taels of silver, and it can't be more!" ”
Although she spoke in a small voice, Su Wanwan knew it clearly, and said, "If she doesn't sell fourteen taels of silver, you can sell it to me for thirteen taels of silver." ”
"Great!" The villagers cheered.
The tooth woman was immediately very angry, and could only buy a lot of girls for fourteen taels of silver.
To Su Wanwan's surprise, someone was willing to sell their daughter to Su Wanwan, but after a long time, Su Wanwan didn't get eight girls.
The woman bought more, no more than twenty, and then stuffed the girls into the carriage and drove away.
After signing the contract, Su Wanwan arranged how to live in the girls she bought, and then went back to the house, Qi Chengfeng sighed, she didn't expect her own lady to be so impulsive, and was about to remind a few words, so she heard Su Wanwan say: "Let's go, at this time we should go and see the people behind the scenes!" ”
Qi Chengfeng was stunned for a moment and said, "Do you know who is behind the scenes?" ”
"Hmm." Su Wanwan nodded and said, "Let's go, go to the place where we didn't find anyone today, then Gongzi Che thinks he will give us a perfect explanation." ”
With that, Su Wanwan and Qi rode out arm in arm, and went straight to Prince Che's residence.
The two of them went over, opened the door and only saw a few maids, but they couldn't see the three sons, a maid came forward and said, "Madam, our sons went out to collect wind, all of them went to paint, if you want to come, come back tomorrow." ”
"What do you do? It's in this house, why don't you dare to show up? Su Wanwan sneered, immediately pushed the maid away, and walked to the inner room, only to find that there was no one!
Did the man really leave? So how is she going to chase it? Su Wanwan grabbed the maid in the room in a deep voice, and said, "Liu Ying, you tell me the truth, where is your son!" ”
That maid is Liu Ying! However, Liu Ying was startled, her face was as pale as paper, and she suddenly lost her proportions, and Su Wanwan said, "Say!" ”
