Chapter 42: The Redemption of the Handmaiden

"I can't do it, I can't do it." Gong Lao waved his hand in a panic,

"Your Highness, do you want me to take you there? Can you know the way? ”

"Don't be busy, Gong Lao, I brought the guards, this trip is to hide my whereabouts, come over tomorrow, please have a drink in a small bar." Phantom Xiqing said.

"Okay, okay, I'll take the first step" Gong Lao was busy with things, and after speaking, he turned around and went back, and said softly in his mouth: It would be good if that little girl could come over.

Huan Xiqing has a hunch that the woman who took the thing will be the same person as the woman in the palace elder's mouth...

He was curious.

"Xiaochan, I'm back." Bai Xiaomuxuan easily flew up to the second floor, her dress was elegant, and her hair was flying.

There was no tea back and forth, and she felt hungry when she looked at the good dishes.

"Girl, you're here." The speed was so fast that she couldn't see the figure, and she almost cried.

Tsk~ delicious, the tea is still warm, the tip of the tongue is soft and magnetic, and the fragrance is very refreshing.

Bai Xiaomuxuan sat down unhurriedly, took the teacup handed by Xiaochan, and slowly put it into her mouth from under the veil and tasted it.

The tea water goes down into the throat, which can completely release the depression of the previous second.

"It's just right that you don't come back, what does Xiaochan do?" I took two more sips, I don't know what kind of tea water, it's extraordinarily delicious, is it because I was in a bad mood just now, and I gave feedback? Heh, she's going to look down on herself.

"Girl, the slave has nothing to say, she is a free person who can't choose, but in comparison, I am still a little better than others." Xiaochan was sold by her father and mother to be a slave, she didn't understand it when she was very young, although the family was broken, she could also be beautiful.

There is only one younger brother, who is not as good as several babies in other people's families, and his father and mother also have the skills to be self-reliant, not to mention abundant food and clothing.

She knits every day, raises chickens and dogs, grows vegetables, does everything she can do, does what she can't do, eats and drinks and can maintain, how can she end up with a deed of sale?

"It's useless to complain, when you are older, slaves and maids know that it is better to rely on yourself than on anyone." She can now eat two meals a day, basically support herself, it's okay, just don't have to worry about anyone at home, lonely, happy to live alone, laugh when she wants to.

"Where's your father?" Bai Xiaomuxuan's vague eyes couldn't see what she was thinking.

"They are in the countryside, and with their younger brother here, they must be able to live in peace." Xiaochan has no sorrow or joy, as if her family is like a stranger in her mouth.

"Don't hate? Don't want to? "Nod your head and agree.

"I have my own way, and they have their bridge, but they are parallel lines." Don't bother each other, don't interfere with each other, don't owe each other, say what you hate or don't hate, but they gave birth to her, from the time they took the money from the deed of sale, she is not herself, let alone the daughter they gave birth to.

Is there a way out for a lifetime of helping others, washing and cleaning other people's clothes?

The deed of sale is recorded, escape, where to flee? She doesn't like this kind of day, so she can only bear it silently.

"If I can help you, how are you going to stay?" Bai Xiaomuxuan put down the cup and put her palms flat on the table.

"I don't..."She wanted to say no, the deed of sale is the same in anyone's hands, either die of old age, or be given away by the master to get married.

How did you know that Bai Xiaomuxuan had a heart in her heart, interrupted Xiaochan's answer and shook her head.

Bai Xiaomuxuan looked at the bowl of dishes on the table that was already cold, and when she flipped it with her bare hands, her spiritual power surged, and the holy light shone on her half-covered face, making her phoenix eyes more sacred.

Xiaochan looked at the past, as an ordinary person, the meal could become steaming without fire, she felt very novel,

"This...?" I can't describe how shocked she was right now. Cultivators, the kind of class above ordinary people, she can only hear about them in her life, but she can't see them with her own eyes.

"What do you think, isn't it amazing?" Warm a few bowls of dishes, she can still do it at will,

"I'm different from a cultivator, to put it simply, I'm even higher than this kind of person." It's not just the level, it's the martial arts, or the way.

What the? Xiaochan was so frightened that she couldn't move, and her nervous hands were trembling slightly.

"I can help you, what about you?" Again said the previous question, Bai Xiaomuxuan didn't want to worry about meaningless things, everyone in the world has it, no one is easy,

Indeed, as Xiaochan said, she is so calculated, eating, drinking, sheltering, and traveling, and her safety is guaranteed, even if she is tired, the slaves and maids who have lost their human rights will be beaten and scolded, but the wind can't blow or rain.

Bai Xiaomuxuan doesn't need to be an ungrateful person anymore, what she likes is Xiaochan's future development, which can not only maintain her innocence in the sludge, but also move up in the predicament.

"I...? Of course, only the girl is the first to look forward. She didn't think about it, as if she was grasping a life-saving straw, she was afraid that there would be no second opportunity, so she couldn't be reckless, pulled Bai Xiaomuxuan's sleeve, and immediately knelt down.

"Stop, don't do this, I won't help you anything, it's up to you." Kneel at every turn, and his heart is already manic.

I don't know what I thought she was doing, Bai Xiaomuxuan dragged Xiaochan up, with a smile in her eyes.

"I'll talk to the shopkeeper later, and I'll fill my stomach first, okay?"

"Yes, yes, girl, please use it slowly." Xiaochan's palm hanging down on the side of her leg was secretly straining, and she felt the stinging pain, and then she felt real.

Being stared at with the eyes of a bright god, the kind of face full of worship, made Bai Xiaomuxuan very embarrassed, in fact, she didn't do anything, but she was Xiaochan's savior-like existence in this life.

He quickly ate his stomach, took a handkerchief, lifted his veil and wiped the scum from the corner of his mouth.

It's no longer interesting to sit, and I'm going to inform Ah Tiekui, but he naturally comes over when he's hungry.

casually drew a sound transmission bird in the air with spiritual power, took a piece of rune paper from the space, and patted it gently, and the two became one.

Go ~ mouth shape silently said a little,

Fluttering Spirit... Like a real bird, it spreads its wings and flies away, turning into a green shadow.

"Let's go, take me to the shopkeeper." Moved to Xiaochan across his legs and said lightly.

"Okay." Xiaochan adjusted her mood, no surprise, Bai Xiaomuxuan was already her god, she only had full respect.

There are fewer people on the first floor, close to the time between Shen and You, and after another hour in normal times, all families should be on the table together, drinking and eating meat, laughing and frolicking.

"Shopkeeper, is it convenient to talk?" Xiaochan was a little afraid, and her restless heart was beating uneasily.

She knew that when she met this woman, the road would be completely different, and she had to spare no effort to strengthen herself.

"But what's wrong with us?" The shopkeeper thought that Bai Xiaomuxuan was dissatisfied, after all, only a rich lady was so generous: it was just a silver ticket.

"No! Xiaochan is very good, and I will also discuss her affairs with you. Bai Xiaomuxuan's eyebrows tilted slightly, and her expression of dissatisfaction really did not mean dissatisfaction.

"Okay, please come with me." looked at Xiaochan who bowed her head, the shopkeeper was puzzled, and stretched out his hand to invite.

Bai Xiaomuxuan walked more than ten steps, and followed the shopkeeper to a room in the backyard, the door was wide open, and there were chairs on both sides, and there was an elderly chair carved from sunken wood on it.

The two sat down in the guest chair facing each other, and Bai Xiaomuxuan didn't talk much nonsense, and went straight to the point:

"Xiaochan wants to leave, I plan to redeem her body, the price is negotiable."

"The guest doesn't look like the kind that lacks a maidservant, and Xiaochan is not a very clever one, are you sure?" The shopkeeper thought for a while, and then asked:

"It doesn't matter if the price is or not, I also saw that she was really pitiful at the beginning, and it was already displeasing to recruit her into the door, and I could only turn a blind eye to her being bullied in secret."

The corners of Bai Xiaomuxuan's mouth under the veil hooked: "I don't care what she has experienced, from today onwards, she will only live according to her own ideas, and everyone has the right to choose their fate." Isn't it? ”

She won't force it, let Xiaochan do what she wants, to put it bluntly, she wants nothing, Xiaochan wants nothing, what can she covet this kind of person?

The shopkeeper was shocked by the innocence of this ignorant person, what kind of life now, the restaurant he experienced was about to be unbearable, and someone spent money to redeem a maidservant.

He can't afford to offend this kind of rich and powerful lady, but she's just a maidservant, what else can she do besides washing things and cleaning?

"Well, since Miss really likes this servant, then I can only cut my love in pain." The shopkeeper pretended to be uncomfortable, supported his forehead with one hand, thought for a while, and said:

"Xiaochan was bought by me from someone else, and I gave them one hundred taels at the time, and now it is worth two hundred taels..."

Bai Xiaomuxuan didn't say a word, and directly threw out the two silver tickets, and the shopkeeper instantly changed his face, and hurriedly took it, took a look, and touched it.

"I'll go, what about you, what slave is worth so much money?" In the space, the small palms of the machine spirit, both of which were clenched into fists, and they wanted to come out and beat this kind of person angrily, they looked good on the surface, why was it so dark behind their backs?

"A businessman should be true to his word, pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other." Bai Xiaomuxuan hooked his hand and signaled that he wanted to sell his body.

"Miss, wait a minute, I'll look for it." The shopkeeper was delighted, and did not forget to put the silver ticket in his chest clothes, put it away and patted it.

"This old man is simply open-eyed when he sees money, and he thinks he is a good person!" The aura of the machine is happy, just now I thought he was so soft-hearted.

"It's all the same, it doesn't work, can people still be stupid enough to buy a maidservant for no reason?" Most of the people who buy handmaidens are either for sex or for the interests of power.

Bai Xiaomuxuan sat quietly, and after a while, the shopkeeper took out a box.

When he came over, he opened the box, and it was full of black and white paper.

Some of them are still the seal of the government, with red fonts and squares with candle drops together.

The shopkeeper flipped through it, and when he reached the bottom floor, he saw:

"She came here when she was very young, and I don't know how many times she sold it, and this one has no official record, so just take it."
