Chapter 139 Su Family Selling Women
Su Caicai carried her to Mingzhu Academy sweating, knelt down in front of Xie Mingzhu, begging bitterly.

Su Cai's family is a rare outsider in Xiejia Village. It was also the second day when Xie Mingzhu came to this world. She asked Aunt Su's daughter who was working in the field.

Because the Su family is an outsider from Xiejia Village, the Su family's preference for sons over daughters is even more obvious.

The Xie family is a big family, and whenever there is any matter, they have always been twisted into one rope and unanimously communicated to the outside world.

Compared to the Xie family, the life of the members of the Su family is not so good. Although they have fields and land, they are also very difficult due to various reasons.

Therefore, the Su family kept giving birth to children, and the girl who gave birth was drowned in the urine bucket because she couldn't afford it.

Although Su Caicai is 12 years old this year, she has a 13-year-old brother above her and five younger brothers below her.

Su Caicai grew up in such an environment, and was brainwashed by her parents every day to dedicate everything to the Su family.

But after arriving at Pearl Academy, Su Caicai gradually felt unwilling.

Why is the same girl, Xie Mingzhu, living so well?
Xie Xiyue was bullied at her husband's house, and her parents would come to her to seek justice for her.

But what about her?
Her parents just use her as a tool.

If it wasn't for the fact that Xie Mingzhu's water mill can only be used for free if children have to attend classes here, Su Caicai would know better than anyone else that her parents would probably not be willing to send her here.

At home, brothers and sisters always eat well, but sometimes she is so hungry that she can only drink water.

She is really envious of Xie Mingzhu's big family, even Da Ya and Er Ya eat well.

Occasionally they have eggs to eat, as well as meat.

Unlike myself, even eating enough has become difficult.

After she arrived in the big class, only Teacher Yu and Teacher Zhang said that as long as she was diligent and willing to learn, she could go to Shu County to work in the county town. If she worked, she would have her own wages.

The young Su Caicai only thought that with her wages, she wanted to buy meat, so she had a hard meal.

"Cai Cai, don't kneel down, sit down and speak slowly."

Xie Mingzhu reached out to help Su Caicai up.

Su Caicai was terrified.

She was afraid that she would really be married off by her parents?
If she is really married, her life can only be a woman like her mother.

Even when he was beaten by his father, he didn't dare to fight back, because his mother didn't have a strong family.

"Grandma, the matchmaker came to say hello to my brother. The woman's family wanted a lot of things, and our family couldn't get them out. So, my parents wanted to marry me and use the dowry money that the man gave me to marry my brother. young married woman."

Su Caicai is quite young, and she speaks quite articulately.

In a few words, he explained the whole process of the matter clearly.

In fact, such things are not uncommon.

Some people even invented another method, which is to exchange relatives. In short, two brothers and sisters become in-laws.

"How much is your brother's dowry?" Xie Mingzhu asked.

Su Caicai made a comparison, "Five taels of silver."

For ordinary farmers, five taels of silver is really a lot. The Xie family's family situation was not bad before Xiejia Village, and they have only saved a few taels of silver since they separated.

There are so many boys in the Su family, and the Su family still thinks that if a scholar is confessed, their family will be honored accordingly, so even if they are poor in food and clothing, they will all seriously confess to the scholar .

"How much is the bride price that the matchmaker gave you?"

Su Caicai bit her lip and said with embarrassment, "Ten taels."

As soon as Su Caicai came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.

They are all grown-ups, and they know more about what the Su family is planning. They think that Su Caicai is going to get married anyway, and if they want more money, it will be easier for them to manage.

"Then do you know what kind of in-law's family the matchmaker told you about?"

Su Caicai nodded and said, "It's a fool from Xiahe Village. Their family has no money, so they need to borrow money."

Everyone is also very clear that the family in Xiahe Village has never been able to marry a suitable partner because they are fools.

Even if they are fools, they must hope to marry a wife, have a baby, and receive the family lineage.

As for the betrothal gift of ten taels of silver, it was certainly not a small sum for them, and they also needed to raise money everywhere, but if they raised enough money, it meant that Su Caicai had to pay it back by herself.

If the money is not paid, the creditor will definitely refuse to pay.

At that time, Su Caicai's fate may not be good.

Even Xie Mingzhu knew that in ancient times, people with poor family backgrounds could not marry a daughter-in-law, and even invented a new profession called "pawn wife".

What is a pawn wife is to lend one's wife to another man, and return to one's own home after giving birth to a child.

This, perhaps, would also be Su Caicai's fate.

At Su Caicai's age, she is still a little girl carrying a schoolbag to school in modern times. They may also have something on their minds, but what is on their minds is, how many points can they get in the exam?What is popular among the little girlfriends?Or, your favorite idol has released a new song?

In modern times, no matter how poor the family is, a 12-year-old girl still needs to receive nine years of compulsory education.

After being successfully admitted to high school, the grades are better, and some schools will have tuition-free classes, and even the grades are better, and you don’t have to pay for it yourself, and the school will give you scholarships.

Children from poor families can still apply for student loans after they go to college.

But at Su Caicai's age, she was about to marry, and even if she married, she would be forced by her husband's family to have a baby.

Xie Xiyue, Cui Yu, Yu Qiushi, Zhang Ying and others all had a look of unbearable feeling on their faces, and they all wanted to help Su Caicai.

But how to help her?

If it's just money, it's enough for each of them to contribute a little.

However, what if the Su family refuses to follow them if they give money?

Xie Mingzhu and Qin Che looked at each other. As the prince, Qin Che didn't know that the daughters of ordinary people lived like this.

He is the prince.

He should have cared about all the people in the world.

Su Caicai is also a member of the common people in the world.

"Su Caicai, are you willing to sign the deed of sale?" Qin Che asked.

Everyone looked at Qin Che in surprise, and Qin Che didn't explain in public what he meant by saying this, but said softly: "If you are willing to sign the deed of sale, we can advance you ten taels of silver in advance, and from then on In the future, you will have nothing to do with your parents, and after you graduate from the senior class, as long as you work hard and earn 10 taels of silver for your wages, you can regain your freedom?"

Su Caicai said without thinking, "I am willing."

She would rather sell herself to Xie Mingzhu than to be a fool's wife.

"But, my parents, would they be willing?"

Qin Che smiled and asked back, "Their purpose is to exchange you for ten taels of silver. I think as long as there are ten taels of silver, they won't ask where the money comes from?"
