"Li Chengsan, don't bluff your aunt, this girl is a ......" Aunt Ye pointed at Cheng Jiaojiao, but looking at the girl's smooth little face, the rest of the words were swallowed back by her, and she said: "However, this girl's appearance and figure are not picky, if you really like that, you are almost thirty years old this year, it is time to marry a daughter-in-law, the aunt doesn't want you more, take ten taels of silver, this girl will go with you today!" ”

Hearing Aunt Ye's words, seeing that she was being bought and sold at will like an object, Cheng Jiaojiao's eyes were full of tears, and she shook her head with Aunt Ye.

Aunt Ye didn't pay attention to her at all, just looked at Li Chengda tightly, waiting for his reaction.

"Such a good daughter-in-law, don't say ten taels, even one hundred taels will make it, auntie, you wait, I'll go back and get you the silver." Li Chengda only smiled, his eyes finally glanced at Cheng Jiaojiao, turned around and strode out of the Ye family's courtyard.

"Tut, this Chengsan shouldn't really want to ask this little mute to be his wife, right?"

"Who's to say it's not, you see how likable this little mute looks?"

The neighbors chattered, Cheng Jiaojiao listened to those words, her already pale cheeks lost their blood, she stood there alone, her slender fingers helplessly twisted the corners of her clothes, she was very sad, she didn't even know what to do, she was not born dumb, her mother would always tell her, saying that her voice when she was a child was clear and sweet, crisp like a lark, but a high fever at the age of five made her never speak again, which became the "dumb" in the mouth of others.

It didn't take long for her to see the man again, the man with the words engraved on his forehead, she watched him stride over, and handed over a money bag in her hand to Aunt Ye's hand, Aunt Ye was not ambiguous, she opened the money bag in front of everyone, and after looking at the white silver inside, a satisfied smile suddenly appeared on her face, and she only pushed Cheng Jiaojiao to Li Chengda's side, and said: "Cheng San, auntie is a talker, you can take this little mute away, from now on, she will be your daughter-in-law." ”

Aunt Ye's words exploded in Cheng Jiaojiao's ears like a thunderbolt, the girl's face turned pale, she looked at the man in front of her, watched him walk towards her, and was about to pull herself, she was frightened, and only hurriedly hid back, she looked at the people around her, looked at the disgust in Aunt Ye's eyes, looked at Ye Yuanyuan standing there silently, and also looked at the tall man with the words engraved on his forehead, her tears finally rolled down, she turned around, and actually hit the locust tree at the door.

Someone pulled her from behind, but the corner of her forehead hit the tree with a dull sound.

"Stupid or not, to kill yourself for this?" Li Chengda's eyes were dark, and when he saw that this little mute was about to commit suicide, he immediately rushed over to pull her, but he was still a little slower, looking at the blood on her forehead, Li Chengda frowned, and quickly tore off a strip of cloth from his sleeve and tied up her wound.

Cheng Jiaojiao looked at him blankly, only to feel that everything in front of her had become illusory, and her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and she finally fainted unsupportively.

Cheng Jiaojiao didn't know how long she had been asleep, but when she woke up, she saw herself lying in a strange room, the roof was mottled, and it was obvious that she hadn't repaired it for a long time.
