Chapter Ninety-Seven: Selling His Body to Bury His Father

"Okay. You wait. That's the price from last time." The shopkeeper asked tentatively.

"Hmm. It's the same price as last time." Xue Ye nodded impatiently. Let's be honest. He doesn't know what that price was last time.

The shopkeeper hurriedly ran to the back and asked the boss for silver. I hurried back again. Stuff it into the hand of the man named Xue Ye for a piece of silver about two or three taels. There were about twenty or thirty copper plates stuffed into the shriveled purse that Xue Ye hung around his waist.

Stuffed up. The shopkeeper whispered in Xue Ye's ear: "The one in the purse is to honor Xue Ye alone."

"Hmm." The one named Xue Ye nodded with satisfaction. Then he said with a smile: "It's still your kid who will come to trouble. I'll pay it back next month."

"Okay. Thank you, Xue Ye. Master Xue, walk slowly." The shopkeeper immediately nodded and sent off the guest.

That guy named Xue Ye originally wanted to say something. was so interrupted by the shopkeeper. Thought about it. Didn't think about it. So he turned around and left with a few retinues.

Shop the little two after they left. He exhaled deeply. Then he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Secret Path: Deal with such people. It's just terrible.

"Little two. Checkout." A guest who had finished his meal shouted.

After the shop boy heard it. Immediately replied with a smile on his face: "Objectively, you have eaten. That's a total of 12 cents."

"Hmm. Eat well. That's twelve cents. You put it away." After the customer finished speaking, he handed over the money he had prepared to the shopkeeper. Then he joked: "Why does your boss hide behind and not come out at the end of the month. I must have been afraid of this group of people. I pushed you out to stop the disaster."

"How can you? Our hostess is not feeling well these days. The boss is helping out in the back."

This shop is a mom-and-pop shop. Usually the boss and the shopkeeper greet in front. The proprietress cooks the noodles in the back. Because the boss is too upright. Quarrel with this group of people every time. Finally there was a lot of bickering. It's himself who suffers.

Therefore. The proprietress spoke. At the end of each month, when these people collect their accounts. It's all up to the shopkeeper to deal with.

Let's be honest. The shopkeeper is much smarter than her man.

Later found out. Every time, although the shopkeeper gave the more than ten or twenty dollars to the person named Xue Ye. But their little shop never paid more to those guys.

To know. Those people are asking for a lot of money every time.

Wait until you are full of food and drink. Wang Jibao and the others paid the money and planned to go home.

I didn't expect to be far away when I just walked out of the noodle shop. But I encountered a very unfortunate thing.

There was actually someone in front. Sell yourself to bury your father.

This is one of the most classic episodes in major TV series.

Sure enough, in this era of scarce entertainment resources. Met one. It became the focus of everyone's lively onlookers and discussions.

"How pathetic. Zhao Xiucai just went. Leave behind a daughter who is like a flower."

"Isn't it? Zhao Xiucai's wife also went early. This makes Miss Zhao how to live alone."

"What else can I do. Get married. I heard that blacksmith Hu Da has always taken a lot of photos of Zhao Xiucai and Miss Zhao. It stands to reason that. It's more reasonable to marry Hu Da."

"Hu Da. Rude in appearance. The man is tall and the horse is big. How could Miss Zhao take a fancy to him. If you look at it. I have been married to Hu Da a long time ago. Why wait until now."

"I also heard that. Master Li let out a word to accept Miss Zhao as the eighteenth concubine."

"Then Master Li is about to become Miss Zhao's grandfather. I still want the old cow to eat the tender grass."

"But people are rich."

"Rich is also an old man."

“……”

There was a lot of talk. Wang Jibao and several people because of their young age. So he found a high platform in the distance and watched coldly.

To say that this woman surnamed Zhao is not very outstanding. Its face is delicate. Fair skin. There is a bookish smell on his body. Apparently read and read.

Compared with the women of ordinary people's families. Nature has a unique charm. I'm afraid that's why she's in the spotlight here.

Today, the woman surnamed Zhao is clearly fully prepared.

Although she is clothed in linen and wears filial piety. But this filial piety robe is new, not to mention. Even the clothes and pants that came out were very neat and clean.

It stands to reason that. Daddy just passed away. Children should kneel. The hem and pants should be covered with dust.

Look again at her kneeling on a clean mat. I pressed a piece of rice paper with a small stone in front of me. On it is written the four big words "sell yourself and bury your father". Handwriting is beautiful. Apparently it was written by a woman. It should be from the hand of this Miss Zhao. I think he put a lot of effort into this.

As a showman. Although there is nothing to be done. But there are many people who can make a living by running a private school or going to the county government office or government office to find a position such as clerk, master, etc.

I just don't know what this dead Zhao Xiucai used to live on. But look at Miss Zhao's style. It shouldn't be too difficult at home.

Looking at this Miss Zhao, although kneeling there and crying. But there is no sense of sadness. The ingredients of the drama are even more ten.

Not much. Wang Xu pulled the placket of Wang Jibao's clothes.

Wang Jibao lowered her head and asked, "What's wrong, Brother Xu."

"Little aunt. She's so pathetic. Let's buy her back." Wang Xu is so big. I've never seen anything like this before. So compassion overflowed.

"Then what are you going to buy it back for?" Wang Jibao asked with a smile.

"Be a girl." Wang Xu replied as a matter of course.

"Then our girls will be matched a lot. You know what."

Wang Xu thought about it carefully. It seems that I used to have a girl who was released the year before last and was married to a small girl. This is what his nurse Du Mama told him. That girl is probably seventeen or eighteen years old.

So Wang Xu replied, "I'm about seventeen or eighteen years old."

"Brother Xu knows how to observe. Think about the problem. That's good." Wang Jibao touched Wang Xu's head with satisfaction. Said approvingly. Then he asked, "Then you see how old this Miss Zhao is this year."

This is a bit difficult for him. Wang Xu thought about a few girls around Wang Jibao and a few girls in his yard. I compared it with a few of them. "About fifteen or sixteen years old."

Wang Jibao nodded and said, "You guessed right."

"Really." Wang Xu's eyes widened. Sparkling. He actually guessed right.

"Yes. Brother Xu is amazing. But have you ever thought about it? We bought her back, and in two years, we had to match her with a small house. Will she do it?"

Wang Xu asked in surprise, "Why don't you do it. Aren't all the maids and servants in our house like this?"

Every few years. The Heshun Marquis Mansion will be equipped with some older maids and small servants. It's conventional.

"You didn't hear what I just said. She didn't even take a fancy to Hu Da, a blacksmith who took great care of their father and daughter. How can you be willing to match a random servant?" Wang Jibao said this. He smiled coldly.

That's a big heart. I want to marry into a rich family. I don't want to be a concubine for the old man yet. For what is already clear.

Wang Jibao is understood. But. She also wants to use this to educate Wang Xu. By the way, give Lin Xi a reminder.

In case Lin Xi also encounters a similar so-called miserable woman in the future. I was soft-hearted and helped others. People are saying that in order to repay the favor, they plan to make a personal promise.

So he continued to analyze with Wang Xu: "You say. She has hands and feet. As long as you are willing to work hard. Can't you feed yourself yet. You see that although she is wearing linen and filial piety today. But the fabric of the clothes that is exposed inside is not very good though. But it's better than the people next to you. Look at the silver bracelet in her hand. That's probably more than enough to send her father. Don't tell me anything, it's a relic left to her by her mother. She can't sell things like that. To know. People can't live anymore. Who cares about foreign objects. Look at her again though she is crying and crying. But there is no sorrow. Apparently not because of the death of my father. Grief to the extreme. If it's really filial piety. I'm afraid that as long as someone is willing to help her bury her father. She'll say yes. You see she's picking and choosing there."

After analyzing it, Wang Jibao asked again: "I said so much. Do you still think this man is really pitiful?"

This person was clearly using her father's death to gain the best for herself. This is clearly a typical scheming woman. Such people. Who gets home. Whoever is making himself uncomfortable.

I'm afraid it's those who are fascinated by women. Under the guise of saving people. In fact, in order to find a good reason for his concubine. I'm going to do it.

Anyway, after the fact. Not only will it not be criticized. On the contrary, there is a good story.

Wang Xu listened to Wang Jibao's analysis. I think it really makes sense. So he nodded emphatically and said, "It does look like it's pretending."

And from the free play came to the conclusion that women are really troublesome.

Thinking of this, he looked up at Wang Jibao with a little weakness. Belch. Except for the little aunt.

"What kind of eyes are you looking at?" Wang Jibao finished speaking. He habitually bent his fingers and knocked on Wang Xu's head.

Wang Xu immediately decided to retract the sentence that had just been excluded.

Belch. As long as it's a woman, it's all troublesome.

Wang Xibao educates Wang Xu in this side. There was an old, thin old man walking over there. He was followed by a few housekeepers.

He looked around Miss Zhao and said with a smile, "How about Miss Zhao. Have you figured it out. I'll pay fifty taels of silver to buy you back and be my eighteenth concubine. Since then, I have followed the master to eat and drink spicy. Master, I promise that I will spoil you alone in the future, can't you?" After speaking, I wanted to stretch out my shriveled hand to pull that Miss Zhao.

Miss Zhao dodged the old man's groping hands in disgust. Angry eyes widened; "Master Li. Please be respectful."

Master Li snorted coldly and said, "Respect. Who you sell to is not selling. Sir, I am kind enough to buy you is your blessing. Don't be embarrassed."

Miss Zhao said righteously: "I just sell to pigs and dogs. I won't stop selling you this old pervert."
