Inside the house, Jiang Mengliang's family was talking.

"Huihui, when we came back today, we found that someone was following, and we happened to meet my brother-in-law selling flour again, so I joined him to hide his eyes and get rid of those who were following, and came here." As soon as Jiang Mengliang entered the house, he immediately reported to Zhou Huihui.

Zhou Huihui was a little stunned, how could they be followed?

"Did you offend anyone in town?"

Jiang Mengliang thought for a while and said: "No, I haven't been to other places except for going to the grocery store and the Qian family's restaurant, and I haven't offended anyone, you also know that I never argue with others." ”

"Did you get rid of them completely? Just don't get my dad in trouble. ”

I don't know what the purpose of the people who are following them is, but since there is such a thing, it is better to be careful, if they follow here, there is no indication of what will happen.

"Don't worry, my brother-in-law and I really got rid of them and didn't come here." Jiang Mengliang patted his chest and reassured.

The noise outside was still there, Jiang Xiaonian thought of the little girl who was about the same age as her, and asked suspiciously, "Mother, what happened just now?" Why are they in front of Grandpa's house? ”

Zhou Huihui became angry when she remembered what Widow Fan said, and said indignantly: "That widow of the Fan family, I knew that she didn't have any good intentions, and actually slandered my family's Xiao Nian as a concubine for the lord of a big family in the town, and shamelessly brought her daughter over, let us introduce her to others, so that we can sell her daughter, and I don't know what she has in her head!" ”

Although Zhou Huihui has been living a poor life, she has never thought of selling her daughter, even if she starves to death, she is dignified, and now when she encounters this, she is so angry that her heart is pounding in her chest.

"Then what did she do with that little sister? It's a pitiful look. Jiang Xiaonian pouted and looked outside.

She was indeed moved by compassion, such a young child, actually have to suffer like this, looking at her dress and figure, she must have been starved and frozen, and now she has to be beaten, she was beaten so that she didn't know how to resist at all, showing her usual state at home, she must have been beaten a lot, and she was numb.

Zhou Huihui's eyes also dimmed, and she sighed and said: "In recent years, there have been more children who have been beaten to death by their parents, and they are all poor in the family, but I pity that child was born in such a family, and I just hope that she can have a good birth in her next life." ”

Jiang Xiaonian listened to the crying and cries of pain outside getting weaker and weaker, gritted her teeth, and said to Jiang Mengliang and Zhou Huihui: "Dad, mother, why don't we buy her, it can be regarded as a virtue, she can't eat much food as a child, so she just bought a maid at home, how about it?" ”

Zhou Huihui glanced at Jiang Xiaonian in surprise, then turned to look at Jiang Mengliang, and said, "Our family still needs a maid?" Doesn't this make people laugh out of their big teeth? ”

Jiang Mengliang was also embarrassed, his family was just a little better, so he put on the appearance of a big family, and the people in the village must not despise them.

Seeing that they were hesitating, Jiang Xiaonian hurriedly added: "Daddy, the main thing is that I also want to have a sister of the same age as a companion, I have also grown up, and it is not good to let my brother help me with some things, is it okay for her to accompany me?" ”

Jiang Mengliang and Zhou Huihui stared at each other for a while, and discussed for a long time before nodding: "Okay, since that's the case, we'll buy her and give you a companion." ”

Jiang Xiaonian got their consent and ran out happily.

"Stop fighting, don't fight!" She ran to the door and shouted at Widow Fan.

When Widow Fan saw Jiang Xiaonian come out, she stopped, looking tired, and looked at her with her waist crossed and panting.

"Little lady, what's wrong?" Her face was no longer disrespectful as before, Jiang Xiaonian was still a concubine of a big family in her eyes.

Jiang Xiaonian pursed her lips when she heard her title, and said, "I'm not a lady, and I haven't been a concubine for others, if you still slander like this, I won't buy your daughter." ”

Widow Fan wanted to despise her when she heard the first half of her sentence, but when she heard Jiang Xiaonian say that she wanted to buy her daughter, her eyes lit up suddenly, and she quickly showed a flattering smile: "Miss Jiang wants to buy my little flower?" ”

Jiang Xiaonian sneered in his heart, but he changed his words quickly.

"Yes, your daughter has no chance to be the concubine of a big family, and I don't know any big families in the town, but instead of being beaten to death like this, it is better to go to my house to be a little maid, although she is not rich and rich, she will not starve to death after all."

Fan Xiaohua on the ground looked at Jiang Xiaonian in a daze, and there was finally a glimmer of light in her dim eyes.

Widow Fan's eyes rolled slightly, and after thinking about it for a moment, she said with a smile: "It is also her blessing that Xiaohua can go to Jiang's house as a maid, my Xiaohua grows smart, and when she grows up, she can also be a concubine for Xiaogongzi, and give birth to a big fat boy for Xiaogongzi, which is absolutely practical!" It's just that this silver ......."

Jiang Xiaonian, as a new woman in the 21st century, was very unhappy with her words about objectifying the little girl, and couldn't help but roll her eyes and said: "She is still so young, she can't do any work, and she has to eat my family's food for nothing, a price, a tael of silver, how about it?" ”

Originally, she wanted to buy it for two taels of silver, but now, she didn't want to spend a penny more.

Widow Fan was not very happy, scratched her forehead and said, "This tael of silver is too little, right?" I heard that the big families in the town buy maids for ten taels of silver. ”

Jiang Xiaonian didn't like Widow Fan, so she was a little meaner when she talked to her: "You don't look at what people buy?" They are all teenagers who can work, just like your daughter, not to mention the thin body, and so many injuries, if you buy it home and the wound worsens, and the feet kick into the sky, my silver will be lost, and only if we are kind-hearted, we will spend money to buy her, if it is someone else, I will not look at it more. ”

Although the words are mean, they are not unreasonable.

Widow Fan looked constipated and stood in place hesitating.

Jiang Xiaonian snorted lightly and said, "If you don't sell it, I'll leave, anyway, you won't get a penny if she is killed." ”

Seeing that Jiang Xiaonian was leaving, Widow Fan was anxious, and hurriedly stopped her and said, "I'll sell, I'll sell!" A tael of silver is a tael of silver! ”

A tael of silver can buy a year's worth of food, and it is better to have something than nothing.

After the two reached an agreement, they signed the deed of sale, pressed the handprint, and handed over the silver, and Fan Xiaohua was a member of the Jiang family.

When Jiang Xiaonian helped Fan Xiaohua up from the ground, Fan Xiaohua's whole body was still trembling, and she didn't dare to look up at her, so she only lowered her head and made a voice the size of a mosquito: "Thank you, Miss." ”

As soon as this incident made trouble, the rumor that Jiang Xiaonian was a concubine for a big family was self-defeating, and everyone was even more convinced that the Jiang family was lucky and prosperous, and they were envious one by one.
