Mother Shen never relented, she turned her face away.

"What you did in the past, if someone else had already cut off the relationship with you, I still miss your old relationship with your father, and I have raised you for so long, are you so ungrateful?!"

The sharp voice and piercing questioning pierced Shen Yuexi's heart like a knife.

Her heart was full of pain, but the action of kowtowing and begging for mercy gradually slowed down.

“…… Okay, I, I promise. ”

Shen's mother gritted her teeth, didn't speak again, and immediately pulled Shen's father to talk about money with the housekeeper Liu on the side.

"Your daughter looks thinner, our lord can't look down on it."

Shen's mother panicked, and hurriedly said: "Please accept her, she is very capable, and the amount of food is small, so it doesn't cost much." ”

"One or two, one or two will do!"

The housekeeper Liu thought for a while, and showed a reluctant expression, "It's okay." ”

He took out a tael of silver from his sleeve, "Take it, this child will have nothing to do with you in the future." ”

"Thank you, thank you, your lord!"

Mother Shen accepted the money and thanked her repeatedly, her eyes flashed with joy, "It's so good to be in charge, Yuerong has suffered a lot recently, and everyone has been hungry and thin, with this money, the children should be able to eat enough for a while." ”

"As for the crops in the field...... Let's find another way, we have encountered insect infestations in previous years, haven't we survived? ”

The two didn't look back at Shen Yuexi again, and let her be taken away by the steward of Liu Zhai.

With tears in her eyes, her vision blurred, and Shen Yuexi had to raise her hand to wipe away her tears in order to let herself see her father's back.

She finally silently recited "Father, Mother", and was silently taken into Liu's house.

"Brother Yubai, I really can't stand it, you! Your father and mother have gone too far. ”

"Yes, Brother Shen, no matter what, you can't sell your own flesh and blood!"

"If it was Shen Yuerong, the Shen family would be reluctant in every way, how could they change people, and their attitudes would be very different? Isn't that partial? It's already biased to the bone! ”

or questioning, or sarcastic words drilled into Shen Yubai's ears, making him feel disgraced.

He opened his mouth, his throat was a little blocked, and his Adam's apple rolled a few times, and then he said with difficulty: "At that time, the peasant family was not having a good time, only those big families were living as well as ever, and my father and mother did this, in fact, it was also to make Shen Yuexi's life better." ”

This almost convinced even himself.

One person's fluttering words made Shen Yubai like a lightning strike: "If it's really good for her, why don't you sell Shen Yuerong?" ”

In fact, her own child, who is not raised under her nose, is always worried that she will suffer from hunger or be bullied.

Shen's father and Shen's mother were in pain before, so Shen Yuerong went to live in Master Li's house for a while, and they all made decisions with great difficulty.

If they really want to sell Shen Yuerong for a little silver, they really can't do it.

Sell your son? That's even more unlikely.

After thinking about it, the only way to do it was to sell Shen Yuexi, who was in the middle.

The Liu family is also a well-known rich man in the town, and they made a fortune by reselling porcelain a few years ago, although they are not as rich as a rich businessman like Master Li, and their family background is not bad.

It is already an established fact that Shen Yuexi was sold here, and everyone can only secretly pray that what Shen Yubai said is true, hoping that Shen Yuexi can live a prosperous life for a while.

However, the picture that appeared on the light curtain quickly disappointed everyone, and they felt heartache for Shen Yuexi.

It turned out that after Shen Yuexi was sold into Liu's family, he was called as a subordinate, and he didn't even give him a stutter, and his life was not as good as Shen Yuexi's days as a helper in the medicinal herb shop, at least he could barely fill his stomach.

In order to satisfy her stomach, Shen Yuexi had to secretly go to the kitchen to eat leftovers.

The next day, the servants in the back kitchen found out about Shen Yuexi's behavior, beat him directly, and then poured the leftovers into the pigsty in front of Shen Yuexi.

"See, it's just feeding pigs, and you don't deserve to eat these things!"

These subordinates were in a good mood to play Shen Yuexi.

Under everyone's mocking gaze, Shen Yuexi was silent, quietly reddening her eyes and refusing to let tears fall in front of these people.

She knew it would only make them more excited.

"It's boring, like a dumb person, tsk!"

"Forget it, let's go, I heard that there is a beautiful maid newly bought in the backyard, we can't get started, let's get addicted!"

A few subordinates smiled and walked away.

Until she couldn't hear the voices of those people, Shen Yuexi finally quietly raised her head and looked uncontrollably into the pigsty.

She couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

It took a long time for Shen Yuexi to slowly leave the stinking pigsty.

"Hey, come here! Yes, it's you, come here. ”

After going out, he didn't walk a few steps, and a maid who was cleanly dressed and wore a maid's bun suddenly stopped Shen Yuexi.

The maids of the Liu family dressed like this generally serve the master of the house, and it is impossible for a rough maid like Shen Yuexi who does hard work to have such treatment.

"Sister, is there anything I need help with?"

Shen Yuexi wasn't sure what was going on with the maid stopping her, so she asked cautiously.

Seeing her trembling appearance, the maid was a little sympathetic, and her voice softened: "When I saw you, I thought of me before, and I suffered a lot." ”

The maid may have remembered the past, and her eyes became dark.

She grabbed Shen Yuexi's hand, then took out some money from her arms and stuffed it, "It's not a lot of money, you can take it and buy some food to fill your stomach." ”

"As for the rest, I can't help you with anything."

After saying this, the maid didn't wait for Shen Yuexi to react, and left in a hurry.

If she is seen by someone with a heart, she will fall into the handle, and maybe she will even be affected by the master who is serving, so even if she sympathizes with Shen Yuexi, she can only help so much.

Shen Yuexi's uncontrollable tears finally broke the embankment.

Some people feel that they are very strong and can hold back their cries no matter what they face, but once they face the kindness of others, the grievances in their hearts can't help but vent.

Holding the money given by the kind maid in her palm, Shen Yuexi wiped her tears with the back of her hand and cheered up again.

After finishing the business in hand, Shen Yuexi bribed the janitor and went to the market with the money.

Everyone didn't know Shen Yuexi's purpose, and guessed that she should want to buy some food to satisfy her hunger.

In the next moment, I saw Shen Yuexi walk into the medicinal herb shop where she worked before and buy some insect medicine.

Handing over the medicine to Shen Yuexi, the old pharmacist did not forget to remind: "Pay attention to the dosage, and be careful not to let people eat it by mistake, otherwise it will kill you." ”

Recently, there has been an insect plague, and in order to cure insects, this is a high-dose version of the insect medicine specially prepared by them.

Shen Yuexi listened carefully to the old pharmacist's explanation of the precautions, and her humble and respectful attitude made the old pharmacist praise him.

It's just that the people outside the light curtain were puzzled by this and couldn't help but whisper.
