Mingyue sent away Su Hongtu, who was chattering endlessly, like a magic sound, and looked back at the table, the clams had fallen to the ground, stained with a trace of dust, Mingyue hurriedly picked up the clams cautiously, and gently wiped the dust until it was as clean as new, Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief, such a mussel shell is worth two hundred taels of silver, can buy ten Ming pine plus ten cute little donkeys, lose a penny and have to compensate, how can this clams be milled, grinded, and soaked after seven days without losing a penny? Wei Zhixing, the black-bellied guy, clearly wants to trick himself, let his new debts fill the old debts, make up for the east wall and the west wall, and owe him forever.

Mingyue lifted the stone pound for the second time and smashed it again, but when it hit the clodium, it suddenly lost its strength, and the stone pound smashed to the ground again, Mingyue flashed in time and did not hit his foot again.

Mingyue was stunned, looking at the intact clams like dementia, and couldn't return to his senses for a long time, the greed he had for himself was like a wheat that was plucked, crazy long, how could it not be overlooked, this clams, worth ten Ming pines, plus ten little donkeys, then I will definitely buy back a cui'er, right?

Although Song'er gradually integrated into the Yin family, there was a melancholy look in her eyebrows, Mingyue knew that he was thinking about his mother, his sister Cui'er, and his sister-in-law.

Huanxi voluntarily followed Wei Zhixing's side, and Mingyue couldn't force it; Cui'er was sold to a brothel by his own father, the kind of purgatory in the world, one day late, I am afraid that I will suffer a little more humiliation, I can't think of it, I am afraid that I can't stand it for a day.

Mingyue held the clams in the palm of her hand a little hot, where is this clams, it is clearly hot life-saving money, it is a little girl's hope, and even life.

Mingyue took a deep breath, rolled her eyes, wrapped the clams in a small cloth bag again, turned back to the house, and said to Liu that the county seat contacted and sold the second pickles, changed into a set of clothes that Yin You wore before his death and went to Chaoyang County.

Mingyue's heart was extremely worried, and her hand was tightly covered with the clams, for fear that it would run away with long legs, and when she arrived at the county seat, she became more and more nervous, like holding a piece of hot red iron, and her eyes were dripping and rolling.

I didn't dare to go to the jewelry shop in Kidnapping Hutong, and found a relatively remote jade shop, the shopkeeper was a shrewd fat man, although there was a smile on his face, his eyes were scanning the bright moon up and down, and finally staring at the basket like a blood-sucking bat.

Mingyue made up her mind a little, the shopkeeper of the jade shop was all the reincarnation of Sun Monkey, with fiery eyes and an extraordinary sense of smell, and before she took it out, the shopkeeper kept his eyes on the basket, indicating that this clams were his favorite, and it was bound to be obtained.

Mingyue carefully lifted the blue cloth, showed a clams, and then the little family quickly covered it, and shrunk and said: "The shopkeeper, the little grandfather died of illness, and his mother was driven out by the eldest uncle, there is nowhere to stay, no rice to put in the pot, only secretly took out a few ancestral treasures, the small one did not dare to go to the pawnshop, fear of violence and destruction of heavenly things, you are always a knowledgeable person, make a price." ”

The shopkeeper cushioned the weight with his hand, nodded and said briskly: "Eighty taels of silver." ”

Mingyue's heart felt like a crack had been cut, knowing that the price was suppressed, but she didn't expect it to be pressed one and a half times faster. Mingyue shook her head and said: "The shopkeeper, a fixed price, one hundred taels, waiting to live, you nod, this business will be done, if you shake your head, my little third son will not say a word, and go back to find another buyer." ”

The shopkeeper's face hesitated slightly, but his heart was happy, some time ago, there was a son looking for clams, and he could sell it for more than two hundred taels of silver, which was really a rich deal.

After thinking for only a few moments, the shopkeeper agreed to Mingyue and took out a tray with ten silver ingots neatly placed on it.

Mingyue threw all the silver into the small basket, which was covered with blue cloth again, and no one could have imagined that a poor and sour young man, a worn-out basket, and a broken blue cloth with oil sticky, there were hundreds of taels of silver in it.

took the silver, Mingyue didn't dare to delay for a moment, and went straight to Yixiangyuan to ask the old bustard to see Cui'er. The old bustard looked at the poor young man with disdain, and had no intention of calling people at all, until Mingyue owed the basket a crack, revealing a shining silver light, and the old bustard sent Mingyue to Cui'er's house with a smile.

As the name suggests, the little cuiren is wearing emerald green clothes, with a beautiful melon seed face, slightly pale and thin, big but dull eyes, and the young age is combed into a woman's bun, and the youthful atmosphere that a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl should have is gone, replaced by the numbness of old age and the despair of dying.

When Mingyue was led into the house by the bustard, Cui'er was holding her cheeks, looking at a piece of sandalwood lit on the table stupidly, and with the red incense on it, the embers drooped down.

The old bustard snorted lightly, waved the handkerchief in his hand, and said in a strange manner: "Cui'er, you don't have to be bitter today, you are a handsome little brother, serve well, maybe you will marry back to be the lady of the main door." ”

The old bustard twisted his round ass and went out of the room, looked back with no trouble, and closed the door from the outside.

Cui'er only raised her eyes to look at Mingyue, and there was no wave in her eyes, as if it was commonplace to see this battle. The girl lifted it gently, picked up the half-lit incense, and burned it deeply on her wrist, and a black incense mark appeared.

Mingyue took a closer look at the girl's wrist, she thought it was an ebony bracelet, but where was the bracelet, it was clearly an innumerable incense print, circled into a whole wrist, at first glance it looked like a black bracelet on the woman's wrist, but up close it looked like countless ants biting her wrist at the same time, which made people suddenly feel a sense of fear and horror.

Seeing the pity in Mingyue's eyes, the girl's face eased, she stood up from the table gently, and without saying a word, she first faded away a layer of tulle outside, and the rest of the emerald green low-cut silk dress inside.

Cui'er had already reached out to untie the knots of the silk clothes, Mingyue couldn't help coughing, and said straight to the point: "I'm not a benefactor, I'm Song'er's own sister." ”

Cui'er's hand that was about to untie the knot froze there, stunned for a few moments, and tears suddenly fell like beads with broken threads, and whimpered: "Cui'er, are you okay?" Rejoice? Where was my dad sold? Is my mother still beaten? Grandma's illness is cured and there is no ......."

Mingyue pulled the anxious Cui'er to sit down, shook her head and said: "I don't know about their current situation, I only know that when they broke up a few days ago, your whole family, along with chickens, pigs, and even the waste cubs in the corner, were all caught and sold by your father. ”

Cui'er choked for a long time, sobbed and said, "Thank you for coming to tell me the news, and thank you for taking good care of Song'er, my mother and Song'er are safe and sound, and I will be at ease." ”

Mingyue sighed, the ancients said that life is unsatisfactory nine times out of ten, Cui'er is, and so is herself, but compared with them, she is lucky, she has her mother and sisters, although she can save the danger even if there is occasional danger.

Mingyue patted Cui'er's heart on the back and said firmly: "Cui'er, Song'er is the most relieved is you, several times begged me to redeem you, are you willing to leave this place of laughter with me and go to live a hard life in the countryside?" ”

Cui'er looked at Mingyue in surprise, her hands trembled as if she was blown by a cold wind, and said excitedly: "You, what you said is true, you, you are willing to redeem me......"

While excited, Cui'er pushed away Mingyue's hand, drooped her little face, and said in frustration: "I don't want to." Master Ge is willing to pay fifty taels of silver to ransom me as an outer room, the old bustard, the old pious woman desperately raised the price to seventy taels, Master Ge is thinking about it, and there has been no information for two days. Therefore, according to the greedy personality of the old godly woman, it is impossible to buy me back at the original price of twenty taels. Besides, I am already a remnant of flowers and willows that can be picked by others, and it is not worth redeeming me with all my wealth, with this silver, it is better to send Song'er to read poetry and books in the future, so as to glorify the ancestors. ”

After speaking, Cui'er suddenly remembered that Mingyue was Song'er's own sister, and Song'er was bought back, so she naturally recognized her ancestors and returned to her ancestors, even if she was a grandfather, the glory was no longer the Xu family.

Mingyue's throat suddenly choked, although both of them are Song'er's sisters, they are not as good as Cui'er, they can save Song'er desperately, but they can't endure humiliation like Cui'er, it is Song'er's luck and their own luck to have Sister like this.

Mingyue took out seventy taels of silver from the basket, placed them neatly on the table, took Cui'er's hand and walked out, and just reached the stairs, she was blocked by the old bustard and a gorgeous woman in fiery red clothes.

The old bustard raised his arms, stretched out his hand to block most of the staircase aisle, and said like a dominatrix sweeping a thousand times: "Cui'er, what's the matter?" Why do you want to elope after taking a fancy to the little white face? Have you ever asked me to know? ”

Mingyue snorted lightly, pointed to the direction of the room upstairs and said: "Seventy taels, one point is not much, one point is not much, if you agree, everyone is happy, if you don't agree, Li Zhutou is a small relative, you look at it." ”

The old bustard didn't believe Mingyue's nonsense, and glanced at the woman in red, and the woman in red entered the room arrogantly, holding out seven silver ingots in both hands, and was so surprised that the bustard didn't close his mouth for a long time.

The woman in red squinted at Mingyue disapprovingly, and seemed to persuade Cui'er kindly: "Little girl, sister, don't blame my sister for not reminding you, here, I am happy to accompany the gentlemen, and I can earn a year's chew from the farmer in one night, eat the best white rice, and wear the best Ayaluo, if you go back to live a hard life, I am afraid that you will have to beg your mother to come back in two days, and at that time, the benefactors who swore to stay with you have already tasted the new chicks, how can it be your turn to eat back grass?"

Cui'er's face turned white and red when she was said, it was so exciting, Mingyue was afraid that Cui'er would regret it, so she held Cui'er's palm tightly with her hand, and gradually sweated.

Mingyue also held Mingyue's hand tightly and said firmly to the woman in red: "Sister Hongshao, no one is as good as a thousand people, and no flowers are red for a hundred days." Just like my sister, there are countless rich sons who are jealous of my sister, and the poems and songs that please my sister are endless, and the gold and silver sent are as soft as flowing water, but relatives are against each other, lovers are fake, friends repel each other, and every day you have to play and disgust that Xie Zhichun, Sister Hongshao, are you really happy? ”

Red Peony's face was flushed, and she didn't know how to refute Cui'er, as for whether Cui'er was right or not, she was the only one who knew it.
