Chapter 242: He's Really Our Father?
When the sisters woke up.
The hemp rope tied to his hand was untied at some point.
Pushed and shoved out of the carriage, Nan Baoyi looked around, only to be surprised to find that this was the deep mountains and forests outside Chang'an City.
Surrounded by countless simple tents, men and women with yellow faces and thin faces wearing heavy anklets and holding hoes, bamboo baskets and other objects in their hands, lined up in an embarrassed and difficult way to the cave not far away.
Guards with long whips, swords-wielding, were watching them.
One of the middle-aged men accidentally dropped a bamboo basket full of ore on the ground, and the guard immediately stepped forward and unceremoniously raised his whip and whipped him until his skin was cracked, and he rolled on the ground with a wail of pain.
The two of them watched in horror.
The official who escorted them over was settling accounts with a small leader.
He stroked his beard and smiled malicely: "In Da Situ's mine, there is no little lady with such a posture. I thought it was good when I first saw it, so I caught it and sent it to you. β
Leader Liu looked at the two sisters carefully and couldn't help but salivate.
He grinned, took out two silver tickets and handed them to the official: "Take them to drink for the brothers!" With these two beautiful little ladies, if you want to come to our mines, you must work harder and harder! When the mine production increases, Da Situ will definitely reward us! β
Nan Baoyi blinked.
She heard from her husband that Da Situ Wu Zhen was not only in a high position, but also controlled the ore mountains near Chang'an, and those ores were the raw materials for making Wushi San.
It turned out that she and her sister were abducted and trafficked to the Wujia mine.
She looked around.
Those poor people who were whipped must have been slaves who had been abducted and sold by the Wu family over the years.
They have no way to go, and they have no relatives in Chang'an City, even if they are abducted, the government will not know, even if they die alive and dead in the mine, no one will care......
Da Situ Mansion, it's really terrifying!
After the official left, Leader Liu coughed, salivated his old face, and said softly: "When I came here, I want to go out in this life." What is the name of the two little ladies, how old are they this year, honestly explain to Uncle, Uncle feels sorry for you, and will let you eat and drink spicy food for the rest of your life, and don't ask you to be like those cheap slaves, to do coolies. β
He said it nicely.
But Nan Baoyi and Nan Yan are not stupid.
They knew very well that the official was Wu Situ's people, who specialized in abducting and trafficking homeless people to work as coolies here, and they were sent here to work as mining prostitutes because of their good looks.
The two sisters looked at each other.
Just as he was about to speak, the middle-aged man who had been whipped suddenly rushed over with a shout!
He was unkempt and grabbed the two girls in disbelief: "Jiaojiao, Rou'er?!" β
He was overjoyed, and when he saw the two little girls stunned, he hurriedly picked up his messy hair and said excitedly: "It's me, it's Daddy!" Why are you two here, you want to die daddy! β
Daddy?
Nan Baoyi and Nan Yan were still stunned.
Nan Guang said with a shy face: "It's all because my father is vain, I saw that others were taking Wushisan, and they also wanted to catch up with the trend, so they stole your mother's medicine." After eating, I felt very good, so I went to the pharmacy to buy it on credit. I took two thousand dollars on credit, and I couldn't pay back the debt, so I was caught here to work as a coolie......"
After explaining the ins and outs, he patted the two sisters happily: "It's not a family, you don't enter a family." You two come over to accompany Daddy, Daddy is very secure! By the way, you two are also in arrears? β
Nan Baoyi: "......"
Nan Yan: "......"
Not to mention whether this man is their father or not, with his stupid appearance, even if it is their father, they don't want to recognize it at all!
Nan Baoyi whispered to Nan Yan: "Is he really our father?" β
Nan Yan: "Judging from the appearance, like." β
What's more, he called out their names.
The three of them were about to speak carefully, but Leader Liu was impatient: "It doesn't matter if you are father and daughter or what, when you get to the mine, it is the master who has the final say!" You, get out, don't delay your business! β
He pushed Nanguang away.
Nanguang stroked his unkempt hair, looked at the two baby daughters who were like flowers and jade, and then looked at Leader Liu.
He is also a man, and he understands what Boss Liu wants to do.
He was secretly angry, barely suppressed his temper, and approached Leader Liu in a good voice, gestured, and said in a low voice: "I hid some private money, don't touch them, I'll give you the money." β
Leader Liu stared at his hand and sneered: "Five taels, you also want to bribe the master?" β
"Fifty taels."
Nanguang whispered.
Lest Leader Liu not believe it, he took off his boots and took out a silver ticket from the insole compartment: "Oh, fifty taels." I was in the mine, and I hid a hundred taels. Don't spoil my daughter, I'll give you that silver ticket in two months' time. β
Fifty taels is enough to go to the ordinary flower building for a long time.
Leader Liu dusted off the silver ticket and smiled: "It's done." β
Bribed the small boss, and Nanguang also got a chance to rest.
Father and daughter sat in a mine and talked.
Nanguang gushed endlessly, telling how he missed the two sisters.
He talked for a quarter of an hour, and when he saw that the two of them were unresponsive, he asked, "What's wrong with you two?" β
Nan Baoyi is sincere: "Dad, my sister and I can't remember the past. β
Nanguang was stunned.
He opened his mouth to ask something, but he knew that it was useless to ask.
After a while, he comforted: "It's okay, when Dad finishes his coolies, he will take you home." When I saw your grandmother and siblings, I slowly remembered. β
"I can't go back."
Nan Rouge muttered.
Nanguang was surprised: "How can you not go back?" I owe only money, not life. β
Nan Yan used a hairpin to scrape the stone clothes on the cave wall.
Nan Baoyi and Nan Guang looked over.
The dull gray-brown stone coat shimmered with a dazzling golden yellow.
Nan Baoyi whispered: "Golden ......"
"The so-called five-stone loose ore veins are probably just a faΓ§ade." Nan Yan wore a hairpin, and his apricot eyes were cold, "What the Wu family is really mining is a gold mine." β
There are eight families in Chang'an City, and every family is rich and prominent.
But the wealth of the Great Situ Mansion, even if it is other families, is greedy.
This is how their wealth came from......
Nan Baoyi's face was pale: "Mining gold mines without permission should punish the nine clans according to the law." From the moment we came here, whether we saw the gold mine or not, for the sake of safety, it was impossible for the Wu family to let us out. β
The sisters are immersed in the emotions of how to save themselves.
Nanguang dragged a shovel from nowhere.
He was overjoyed: "Good girl, don't worry, my good son-in-law will definitely come to save us." You two have this sad kung fu, why don't you take the opportunity to dig up more gold! Having said that, it would be nice if the entire gold mine belonged to our family, and what kind of money village would be sold in Shu brocade, we would be developed, hahahahaha! β
He's so optimistic.
Nan Baoyi and Nan Yan glanced at each other, and they were both speechless.
β¦β¦
At this time, Chang'an City Pharmacy.
Xiao Yi stayed up all night, leaning on the shelves, fiddling with one hand to win the money.
He investigated and judged that the third uncle should have disappeared in this pharmacy.
The guards were searching for people.
Before the results were found, a figure flashed in, and it was the secret guard who was responsible for taking care of Nan Baoyi.
His face was solemn, and he arched his hand: "Your Highness, something happened to the princess!" β
