Chapter 11: Buy Her Someone
"Sister Xiaobai, those people are really annoying." Lu Mi'er took Zhong Libai's hand and apologized to her, "I don't think you hate it at all, I'm sorry before, I did it on purpose, and I won't be in the future." ”
Zhong Libai smiled helplessly, rubbed her hair, and couldn't help but quip, "Are you still bathing today?" I'll fetch you water. ”
Lu Mi'er's face turned red, "Just wash it casually, you don't need so much water." ”
Looking at the child running away, Zhong Libai laughed, pinched his eyebrows, went to the backyard to check the herbs, and found that the growth was quite gratifying.
"Came back so early today?" Lu Zhiqiong was coming to water, and when he saw Xiaobai, he remembered what happened last time, and he was slightly embarrassed.
Zhong Libai snorted, took the scoop in his hand, and went to water the herbs in a row, and saw that there were weeds and pulled them out.
When she is in a bad mood, she likes to take care of flowers and plants, and if it weren't for Lu Zhiqiong being on the side, she would still talk to the plants and trees.
Lu Zhiqiong didn't leave, and kept guarding with a cane until his arm was numb and he couldn't hold it anymore and fell to the ground.
Zhong Libai heard the sound, and hurriedly came over to help people, complaining, "Why are you careless." ”
Lu Zhiqiong grew so big, it was the first time he was so embarrassed, especially in front of the little beggar, his face and neck were red with shame, but he couldn't speak, for fear of being laughed at.
Zhong Libai was awkward when he thought of the identities of the two, and called out to Lu Mu to come over and help the people back to rest, and he continued to stay and pull weeds.
After dinner, Lu Zhiqiong deliberately shouted that Zhong Libai stayed, and he stopped talking, which was very inconsistent with his image of Lu Tianxian.
"If you have something to say, say it." Zhong Libai took the initiative to speak.
"You're in a bad mood?" Lu Zhiqiong asked affirmatively.
Zhongli Bai Yan twitched the corners of his mouth, didn't say yes, didn't say no, raised his eyes to look at Lu Zhiqiong, and finally shook his head.
"It's okay, what if you're unhappy and don't make money for me?" Lu Zhiqiong began to get angry again.
Zhong Libai really wanted to blow up his hair, and he didn't want to be angry with the little hairy child, so he left someone and ran away, and asked Lu Mi'er to take a bath together.
Lu Fan saw that the three of them were working hard to sell balls, so he deliberately set up a bathing compartment in the backyard, divided into two fans for men and women.
Although it is not as convenient as a modern bathroom, at least there is no need to go to the river to wash, and the water can be boiled directly from the next door.
Zhong Libai thought, when he is free, it would be good to ask Uncle Lu to help draw a water pipe, dig a pool directly in the backyard, and get a small bathroom.
"Sister Xiaobai!" Lu Mi'er shouted several times, but Zhong Libai didn't hear it, and when he got closer, he saw that the person had fainted.
She was so frightened that she put on wet clothes, and hurriedly went to tell her brother about Zhong Libai's situation, Lu Zhiqiong came over to take a look, and noticed that the person was fine, as if he was just asleep.
Lu Mier dressed Zhong Libai and called Zhong's mother to help people to the house to rest, and the few people who were alarmed talked about it.
Zhong Libai has been very tired lately, getting up so early in the morning and sleeping so late at night, and he has to worry about this and that every day, the iron man is about to die.
It's just that there are few people in the Lu family who can support the face now, Lu Zhiqiong's situation can't help much, Lu Mi'er and Lu Mu are young, and Zhong's mother is not in good health.
Lu Fan, Uncle Lu is the second busiest person in the family, he needs to take care of the family's food, and he has to be busy inside and out.
The Lu family is really short of people, Lu Fan regretted it many times, he should have left a few Lu family members in the first place, and he would not be tired like this.
"Let's go buy a few people!" Looking at the room where Zhong Libai was sleeping, Lu Zhiqiong spoke.
It's one thing to don't like it, but Xiaobai is busy with this family, and he, the head of the family, can't say nothing!
"Now how can there be any surplus money at home to buy people!" Lu Fan refused.
"I have it in my house." Lu Zhiqiong said with a tough attitude.
What else can Lu Fan say, since the master has spoken, how can there be any reason not to buy people, he immediately made a decision, he must buy people!
The next morning, Uncle Lu said that he would go to the town with him, Zhong Libai didn't suspect it, thinking that there was something missing in the family, and asked him if he wanted silver.
Lu Fan held his breath before shaking his head and refusing, thinking in his heart that he had a thousand taels on his body, so how could he use a few taels of money.
When they arrived in the town, Zhong Libai and they still had the same itinerary, but Lu Fan was different, and he also stated that he would not go together, and after asking a few words in the town, he went straight to Yaxing.
The environment of the tooth shop is not beautiful, people are locked up like wild animals, it is very dirty, and it is very noisy.
To be honest, Lu Fan doesn't like this kind of place very much, he went with his father once when he was a child, and he didn't go to death later.
I didn't expect him to come here voluntarily today, and it's true, the flowers are similar every year, and the people are different every year.
"Hey, you're here, what do you need?" Ya Xingzi is a middle-aged man dressed exaggeratedly.
Lu Fan was insensitive to this kind of person who was dressed in red and willow green, explained his requirements, and mentioned, "Clean up first and bring it over." ”
It's good that a person in his thirties is here, if he sees something bad, wouldn't it be too spicy, and he still wants to keep his innocence!
Ya Xingzi answered, and within a moment, dozens of teenagers and girls over ten years old and under fifteen years old were arranged to come out.
They were wrapped in rags, and the girls were fine, at least their clothes were intact, and many of them didn't even have tops.
Lu Fan said his requirements, picked a few questions, and took a fancy to four, three men and one woman who were about the same height and outstanding in appearance.
Ya Xingzi said the price, a good-looking boy is one hundred and twenty, a girl is two hundred and two, and the four people have to pay five hundred taels, and sign the deed of eternal sale.
Lu Fan negotiated with Yaxingzi, and finally bought four people for four hundred and eighty taels, spent ten taels to buy a few of them a new line, and bought a few large bundles of coarse cloth for the remaining ten taels and sent them back to Yaxing.
It was the first time that Ya Xingzi had seen a repeat customer deliver clothes, thanked Lu Fan for those slaves, and welcomed him to come back next time.
Lu Fan didn't wait for Zhong Libai, he took Xu Mao's car back first, anyway, it was okay for him to stay in the town, just come and pick up people in the afternoon.
"Childe, the person has already bought it back." Lu Fan explained the buyer's experience and returned five hundred taels.
"You take it first." Lu Zhiqiong waved his hand too lazy to take it back, and said again, "For the rest, you can look at it and give it to Xiaobai!" ”
Lu Fanxin said sure enough, squinted and laughed, "Do you need to say that it was given by the son?" ”
Lu Zhiqiong was silent for a moment, and waved his hand again, "Whatever you want." ”
As for the subordinate who bought it back, he couldn't use it, so naturally he didn't need to look at it, anyway, with Lu Flip's critical eye, he could see whether the subordinate was good or not.
Before Zhong Libai returned to the village, he learned that Uncle Lu had brought four people to his home, and he was somewhat prepared in his heart, but he was still shocked when he heard that it was a slave bought back by the family.
As a good citizen, if there is no accident, Zhong Libai will never be exposed to such a thing as human trafficking in his life.
The reality is ...... Experienced it for yourself.
"Give them a name!" Lu Zhiqiong called Zhong Libai to the inner hall, and asked her not to be busy first, and take a look at a few people.
Zhong Libai glanced at the three men and one woman, and asked him curiously, "Why did you let me take it?" ”
Lu Zhiqiong directly stated, "If you buy it for you, you will naturally choose the name." ”
Zhongli Bai Huoqi came up all of a sudden, "Master Lu, I am also a descendant of the Lu family, so you should take it yourself!" ”
said that he would buy someone, and he didn't discuss it with her, and he didn't take himself seriously at all, although she was also a subordinate here in Lu Tianxian, at least it would be good to say hello first.
She's not the kind of person who is unreasonable, there is a shortage of people at home to hire, and she will buy someone if she doesn't agree, so she is a little frightened, okay?
"I command you to name them." Lu Zhiqiong said fiercely, threw a few pieces of paper on Zhong Libai's body, and went back to the house with a cane.
Zhongli Bai kicked the table next to him angrily, "I'm not angry, what is he angry with me?" ”
Lu Fan, who watched a play, picked up the deed of sale and handed it to Zhong Libai, "Childe is in a bad mood again, don't worry about him for now." ”
He explained to Zhong Libai how to buy people, and even she didn't miss out when she was tired and fainted last night, and corrected his son's name.
Looking at the five hundred taels of silver tickets and the deed of sale handed over by Uncle Lu, Zhong Libai's face turned red and white, white and red, she actually misunderstood the immortals just now.
I thought that Lu Zhiqiong was not used to the countryside and was used to being served, so he spent money to buy people to enjoy it, but who knew that it was because of her who bought it.
Also, if Lu Gongzi needed someone to serve him, he would not have allowed the Lu family to go back before, and there was no one in the family some time ago, so he survived.
Zhong Libai asked Uncle Lu to bring the four newcomers down first, she had to coax Lu Tianxian, otherwise the person would make trouble at night without eating or drinking, and it would be others who would work hard.
"Master Lu, I'm in." After Zhong Libai finished speaking, he directly pushed the door and went in.
Lu Zhiqiong sat at the table, as if he was writing something, when he heard the door ring, he stroked the writing a few more strokes, and looked sideways.
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood you." Zhongli Bai honestly admits his mistake.
She took a few steps forward, took the initiative to help someone grind the ink, and showed weakness again, "It's me who is wrong, can you forgive me, Master Lu?" ”
Lu Zhiqiong didn't make a sound, but after a pause in his writing, the words became beautiful, and it was not difficult to see that his mood had improved.
Zhong Libai showed a smile that had succeeded in his plan, but was grabbed by Lu Zhiqiong, who suddenly raised his head, and the two of them were stunned at the same time.
One is because of embarrassment, and the other is because of stunning.
Zhong Libai is not the original owner after all, she has been traveling over for almost half a month, her soul and body are highly integrated, and her appearance and characteristics have gradually changed towards her original appearance.
The original owner's eyes are very dark, and there is no difference between happy and unhappy, just a wooden person, and he usually doesn't like to talk much, so he looks very ordinary.
Zhong Libai is different, she is a dazzling existence in herself, especially when she laughs, her eyes seem to be full of stars, especially bright, looking at people who are shining.
"Little beggar." Lu Zhiqiong suddenly shouted softly.
Zhong Libai didn't hear clearly, but still nodded and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Lu Zhiqiong handed over the pen in his hand, "Can you write your name?" ”
