When Xiaowan discussed this matter with Ling Chaofeng, Ling Chaofeng said that he would go out to run errands in two days, and he would just stay in the capital for a day, and then he would tell Ershan in person that he would try to see if he could improve the situation.

Xiao Wan heard from Xiang Gong that the second princess of the Emperor Taishang married into the Jin Kingdom, and the first thing she changed for the Jin Kingdom was to prohibit the random buying and selling of women and children there, but this is not allowed by the law in Daqi, but the territory is vast, and the emperor always has a time when the whip is out of reach.

Naturally, if Ling Chaofeng wants to stay in the capital for a day, just counting the distance between Baisha County and the capital, this time the prince will be able to go home for at least ten days.

Before and after giving birth, the couple hadn't been separated for so long for a long time, and Xiaowan was very reluctant. But she understands that in order to protect herself and her children, Ling Chaofeng has delayed a lot of things, and there are people who have helped him in these days, and the favor must be repaid.

"Xianggong, Su Su said that the sesame candy in the capital is delicious, I want to eat it, can you buy me some? Buy more and save it for the winter. Xiao Wan smiled and said leisurely, "When I go back, I'll ask Su Su which one is delicious." ”

Ling Chaofeng knew that his wife was considerate, so he kissed Xiaowan: "Don't worry, I will handle this matter for you." ”

Xiaowan asked: "What about Sanniang, she has been staying in our store?" ”

Ling Chaofeng said: "Her mother-in-law can't catch up when she goes out, she will definitely come to the inn to find trouble, and send the Buddha to the west, I think about it, but it is just a loss of some silver, so it is better to leave Sanniang with us, and wait for her mother-in-law to let her go, and then let her think of finding the child by herself." We don't have a shortage of people in our store, and we can't really keep her here. ”

"Xianggong, you are such a good person." Xiaowan said gratefully, "I hope Sanniang can find her daughter smoothly." ”

In this way, before evening, the mother-in-law, as Ling Chaofeng said, really found it again, and saw her daughter-in-law sitting in the hall, and rushed up with two slaps, so Aunt Zhang and Uncle Biao rushed to pull her away.

Aunt Zhang said: "If you beat someone again, don't blame us for being rude, sending you to the yamen is just a meal." ”

The mother-in-law is also a powerful character, rolling up her sleeves and using her palm as a fan, she was sweating all over her head, and said hatefully: "I want to see how you say to the official messenger that you are hiding my daughter-in-law, what happened to me when I came to ask for someone?" As for me beating her, she was born as a person in my family and died as a ghost in my family, which mother-in-law doesn't care about teaching her daughter-in-law? ”

Sanniang curled up behind people, and her mother-in-law's voice was loud, and she trembled.

Xiaowan stood upstairs with the child in her arms, she heard Su Su say that the childhood sweetheart of the previous husband followed the family, and in the end, it was the bloody Lingxiao Inn.

A weak woman killed a family of three with her own hands and disappeared with her daughter. And what provoked her to kill was not her own abuse, but her mother-in-law's desire to sell her daughter as a child bride to save the family's business.

Why is a girl's life so worthless, although there are also boys who are sold, compared to it, it is less after all.

Thinking about it like this, her father treated her well, and he once loudly threatened the Xu family that he would never allow his stepmother to sell him, otherwise......

Before Xiaowan could regain her thoughts, there was a commotion downstairs. The mother-in-law is very powerful, she didn't dare to do anything in the morning, and her daughter-in-law was here, she felt that she was taking advantage of it, and her waist was hard, and she made a lot of noise downstairs, and Uncle Biao threatened her, so she sat on the ground and cried and laughed.

There were a few guests in front of the door who wanted to come in, but when they saw this scene, they all quickly ran away, and it seemed that this woman would not stop until she reached her goal.

But seeing Ling Chaofeng coming from behind, he took a piece of paper and a bag of money, put the paper on the table and said, "This is a contract, we ask your daughter-in-law to work in the store, how much silver do you want?" ”

The mother-in-law blinked her eyes, looked at the people here, and said, "Five hundred taels of silver." ”

It was still one hundred taels in the morning, and it became five hundred taels after half a day, such shameless greed for money, it can be seen that people like Xu's in the world are really endless.

Ling Chaofeng smiled coldly: "One hundred taels, press the handprint here." ”

The lady spat and scolded: "One hundred taels, you sent Hanako?" ”

Ling Chaofeng said lightly: "Either take a hundred taels and leave, or sink the corpse in Baisha River, you can do it yourself?" ”

The woman was stunned, but felt that they didn't dare to do such a thing as killing people after all, so she raised her nostrils and snorted: "Five hundred taels, not a copper plate is missing." ”

Ling Chaofeng glanced at Uncle Biao, Uncle Biao smiled, rolled up his sleeves and walked towards the woman, so frightened that she stepped back and screamed loudly.

But Uncle Biao pulled off his belt, tied her hands and feet in the blink of an eye, carried it on his shoulders, and said to Ling Chaofeng: "I will tie a few more stones and sink her to death." ”

"Let go of me, let go of me......" the woman screamed, and finally begged for mercy, "a hundred taels, just a hundred taels." ”

Ling Chaofeng said coldly: "Ten taels of silver, take the silver and leave, don't take the silver and sink into the river." ”

"Ten taels ......?"

In the end, under the crying and wiping tears of Sanniang's mother-in-law, she pressed her handprint, took ten taels of silver, and left in a gloomy manner.

The mother-in-law finally left, Sanniang was busy kneeling down and kowtowing to everyone, thanking everyone for saving their lives, Aunt Zhang suddenly remembered that it was time to interrogate the mother-in-law and where she sold the child. Uncle Biao got the order, ran out immediately, and arrested the woman again.

She made a lot of noise and asked them what they wanted, and when she learned that she was asking about her granddaughter's whereabouts, she smiled: "If you want to know, bring the silver, and I'll tell you if you bring the silver." But if I say, do you believe it? ”

Ling Chaofeng said: "You are honest, after finding the child, I will send someone to your house to send a hundred taels of silver, if you don't tell the truth, we can't find the child, you and your man's son, just continue to be a family under the water together." If you don't believe me, you can give it a try, even if you run to the ends of the earth, I can find you. ”

The woman was suspicious of her heart, and when she heard the words that she was about to drown in the river, she felt in her heart that this was probably retribution, and for a moment she trembled and said, "Child, child has been ...... I sold it and sacrificed it to the god of the river. What I said is true, or I will not die a good death. ”

Sanniang convulsed, jumped forward and grabbed her mother-in-law's arm and asked, "Sacrifice to the river god?" …… You, you ......"

Hearing that her daughter was sacrificed to the river god and was no longer alive, her grief-stricken mother fainted, Su Su and Aunt Zhang hurriedly helped her up, Ling Chaofeng felt a chill in his heart, and glanced at Uncle Biao, who angrily threw the person out.

Sanniang was helped upstairs to rest, and when she woke up, her eyes were dumbfounded, not crying or making trouble, as if she was dead. Su Su prepared porridge and rice tea for her, but she didn't eat or drink, so she put it aside and let her eat it herself when she was hungry.

After that, until it was dark, Sanniang didn't move, in the middle of the night, Fei'er and Ji'er cried again, Xiaowan and Ling Chaofeng hugged one by one and walked around the house.

When I turned to the door, I saw that the room on the second floor was lit up, Xiaowan and Ling Chaofeng glanced at each other, and Xianggong went downstairs to check and came up to tell her that Sanniang was eating.

Xiaowan sighed: "She's so pitiful, there's no hope now, how will we live in the future, we can't take her in." ”

Ling Chaofeng said: "Arrange a place for her to go, just let people go like this, maybe it will fall into the hands of her mother-in-law again." ”

Xiaowan's heart is warm, her husband is so kind-hearted, which makes her feel so relieved, in fact, she is very worried that she is too soft-hearted and will embarrass her husband, but since she got married, she often feels that in fact, Ling Chaofeng is the kindest person.

One night was peaceful, and the next morning, when Xiaowan came down for breakfast, Aunt Zhang and Sanniang were sitting at the table talking. Seeing her, Sanniang stood up and bowed, and Xiaowan hurriedly said: "Don't be so polite, you are weak, sit down." ”

After eating breakfast, I heard Aunt Zhang say that Sanniang wanted to ask them to help find a good family that wanted to use a nurse, and she wanted to continue to help others take care of their children.

Her own child will never be able to eat, so feeding a child who can't eat enough and bringing that child up in the future can be regarded as a comfort in her heart.

"Otherwise, I don't know what I mean by living, I don't want to go back to that home, my man and my mother-in-law are not things." Sanniang said, but she stopped crying.

"And what about your mother's family?" Xiaowan asked.

"I was sold to this house as a child daughter-in-law, and I don't remember whose daughter I am for a long time." Sanniang smiled bitterly, "I don't have a mother's family." ”

bought a daughter-in-law and sold her granddaughter, that mother-in-law really doesn't make a loss-making business, why can that kind of person live with peace of mind.

Xiaowan saw Ling Chaofeng coming downstairs, so he told Xianggong about it, Ling Chaofeng looked at Sanniang, sighed in his heart, and said: "I'll ask someone to ask, but this is not something that can be done immediately, in a few days, will you ......?"

Ling Chaofeng was embarrassed to say those words, but Aunt Zhang said: "Yes, will it be back to milk, when the time comes, people will find it, but you can't feed it, it's not in vain." ”

Sanniang shook her head in a daze, I don't know what Pei'er did to her brother upstairs, Ji'er's cry came down through the stairs, Ling Chaofeng frowned and wanted to go up to clean up Pei'er, on this side, hearing the child's cry, Sanniang's chest was wet.

She clutched her chest in embarrassment, Xiaowan secretly envied in her heart, if she could be so abundant, she would not worry about the two children not having enough to eat.

However, she really didn't plan to let someone else feed her child.

Two days have passed in the blink of an eye, Ling Chaofeng should go out, looking for other people's affairs, he has already sent someone to do it, and there is no news for a while, but his affairs can not be delayed any longer, so he can only leave Sanniang at the inn for the time being, and leave first.

Xiaowan hugged Fei'er to see her husband in front of the door, Ling Chaofeng kissed her daughter's little hand, and said to Xiaowan: "Don't work too hard, take care of your health, I'll be back in a few days and bring you sesame candy." ”

Xiao Wan pouted, and she also wanted to kiss her father-in-law, Ling Chaofeng said angrily: "On the avenue, you are not ashamed? ”
