Chapter 003: Selling Daughters

It was already dark, and according to the rules at this time, there was no one who married a daughter in the dark, but if it was a daughter who was sold, it would be a different matter.

Why did Mei Qingqian wake up in the bathtub, because after her predecessor was beaten with rattan, her father didn't care about her life or death, and directly sold her to Liu Xi, a widower in the village, to fill the house. After dark, Liu Xi would come to pick up people, she was covered in blood, and it was always inappropriate, so the old lady of the Mei family instructed Du Juhua's mother and daughter to wash the people and change into clean clothes.

Mei Qing's shallow eyes narrowed, the mother and daughter lying on the ground were not a good thing, and they beat and scolded their predecessors behind their backs. Calculated carefully, when the predecessor was dying, he was drowned by Mei Yanxiang pressed into the bucket.

She picked off Mei Yanxiang's coat three or two times, regardless of the fact that the clothes were already soaked, put it on herself, and then put the change of clothes prepared next to Mei Yanxiang on.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps at the door, Mei Qingqian's heart tightened, and she hurriedly supported Mei Dianxiang and blocked Du Juhua, who was unconscious behind her.

The door was pushed open a crack, and a delicate melon seed face poked in, and said in a low voice: "Mother, sister, you are almost done, don't let her die, otherwise the Liu family doesn't know how to make trouble." ”

It was Du Juhua's eldest daughter Mei Xuanyan who spoke, but fortunately, she was pampered when she was a child, and she didn't want to go into a place like the stove room. But Mei Qingqian didn't dare to be careless, and moved half a step towards the door, as long as Mei Xuanyan came in, she would knock people unconscious with one blow.

"Right away." She replied in Mei Yanxiang's slightly thick voice.

"Then I'll go back to my room first." Mei Xuanyan didn't notice anything abnormal, closed the door and left.

Mei Qingqian breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the ground and seized the time to recover some strength.

Before her accident, she had met an old street artist, who was very good at imitating other people's voices, and she could imitate them once she heard them. She thought it was interesting and studied with the old artist for two months, although it was not like the old artist that both men and women could imitate, but the simple imitation of the woman's voice has been seven or eight points like it, and I don't want it to come in handy now.

Soon it was completely dark, and there was a shouting voice outside: "Father-in-law, the son-in-law has come to pick up the daughter-in-law!" ”

Also a son-in-law...... Thinking of Liu Xi in the memory of her predecessor, Mei Qingqian almost didn't vomit.

Liu Xi is only three or four years younger than Mei Qingqian's father Mei Kang, and he is a village ruffian who does not do his job, and he used to mix with Mei Kang all day long and call him a brother, but now he has become a son-in-law"?

The old couple of the Liu family were diligent, and they bought some fields in the early years, and they were also considered rich peasants in the vicinity. It's a pity that the Liu family is too spoiled, and Liu Xi has developed a lazy and unprofessional temperament, and later became infected with the vice of gambling.

Liu Xi's boss married a daughter-in-law when he was not young, and because the Liu family was willing to give a dowry, the woman's family was in dire need of silver. Who knew that in less than a year, his daughter-in-law was beaten to death by him, and the neighbors knew that Liu Xi would beat his daughter-in-law as long as he drank too much and went home.

Over the years, the old lady of the Liu family has always wanted to renew her son's strings, but how can a good family be willing to let her daughter fill the house for him? The Mei family sold Mei Qingqian, obviously wanting her to die!

"You wait a while, the person will be yours immediately, don't forget the benefits of my father-in-law in the future." In the yard, Mei Kang said facelessly.

Liu Xi chuckled, "In the future, it will be my own family, father-in-law can rest assured." ”

The old man of the Mei family avoided it, and the sound of slamming the door and shouting kept coming from the firewood room on the other side, and Mei Kang had already locked Mei Qingqian's mother and sister in the firewood room.
