Chapter 161 The Father Who Sells His Sons and Daughters 3

Chapter 161

As the night fell, all kinds of grunting, grinding teeth, and talking in sleep sounded around me.

After several days of traveling, I was exhausted, and Yao Chunlin quickly fell asleep.

Only Qin Xiaocui was left, secretly taking out some grass roots from the bag, throwing them into the bamboo tube and mashing them up, and feeding them to the children.

"Mother, I'm hungry..." the youngest son, Yao Erdan, sobbed.

If it weren't for the hungry crying at the beginning and being beaten by Yao Chunlin, I would probably have burst into tears this time.

"Chew some tree roots, swallow them and go to sleep, and you won't be hungry when you sleep."

Qin Xiaocui touched the withered yellow hair on his head distressedly.

…………

After eating some, a pair of sons and daughters endured hunger and fell asleep.

The next day, after dawn, the city gate was still tightly closed, and only those who paid the money could enter through the small gate.

Yao Chunlin and Qin Xiaocui didn't know what to do, they could only sit in a daze with the others.

Until the city gate suddenly opened, three carriages came out from inside, and a group of people dressed as servants and servant girls stepped out of the carriages.

The leader was a middle-aged man dressed as a housekeeper. He said with a straight face, "I am the housekeeper of the Liu House. Our Liu House wants to buy someone. If you are willing, you can come and line up to negotiate the price and sign the contract of sale."

"Housekeeper! I'm going to..."

"Housekeeper, and us!!"

"Housekeeper, what do you think of my daughter?"

"Housekeeper...my wife is good at female celebrity and good at cooking, can she do it?"

Butler Liu frowned and shouted angrily: "Everyone line up for me! Anyone who squeezes in, don't want them all!!"

That being said, those crazy refugees calmed down a bit.

Started to line up in a hurry, holding the crying child tightly in his hand.

An old lady pinched the girl next to her and cursed: "Damn girl, why are you crying? Mother sent you to enjoy the blessings! When you go to Liu's house, you will have food, water and a place to live." , what's wrong?"

The girl shook her head and cried, she knew it was selling herself into slavery, not what the mother said at all.

Yao Chunlin looked at the Qin family, the daughter-in-law is not good, and she has to take care of the males of the Yao family, then...

His eyes fell on Yao Daya who was shivering at the side.

After all, they have been married for several years, how could Qin not know what he was thinking.

She knelt on the ground and kowtowed, begging: "Sister-in-law, don't betray me! She doesn't eat much, I will find roots for her to eat, and I will take her with me! She will be fine..."

"Oh, don't sell her! Do you have a fee to enter the city? Besides people, what else is valuable in our family?"

Yao Chunlin got up, picked Yao Daya up and left, no matter how much Qin begged and how much the Daya struggled, it was of no avail.

He carried the child in front of Steward Liu, and asked obsequiously, "Housekeeper, how much do you think I can sell for this girl? She is very obedient, she can do everything, and she still looks good."

Yao Chunlin wiped Yao Daya's dusty face with his dirty clothes sleeve.

Originally, Steward Liu didn't intend to have such a small child, and it would take him a few years to raise her to work, so what do you want her for?

However, seeing that the little girl looks a bit upright, after thinking about it, the young master in the family needs a personal maid, which is fine if she was cultivated since childhood.

"Okay, one tael of silver."

"This..." Yao Chunlin was a little hesitant, and he begged: "Housekeeper, you are rewarded for being a good person, can you add one or two more? My girl is really well-behaved."

Butler Liu was unmoved, "No, at this price, if you don't sell it, get out of the way, and there will be more people selling it!"

"Master, let's not sell it anymore! One tael of silver is not enough anyway, let's go." Seeing the opportunity, Qin rushed up and dragged Yao Chunlin away.

Yao Chunlin hesitated for a moment, looking at his weeping wife and daughter, he was right after thinking about it, one tael of silver was not enough.

The wife cannot be sold, and she has to take care of their father and son, and the son cannot be sold, as he is his only male.

"Hey, forget it..."

Butler Liu saw that this person really left with the child in his arms, so he stopped him after thinking about it, "You! Wait."

"I?"

Yao Chunlin looked around, and after confirming that he was called, he walked back holding the child in his arms.

This made Qin's heart jump out of fright.

"If it weren't for you, girl, who is indeed a bit upright, I would definitely not take advantage of you. Take two taels of silver and press your fingerprints."

Steward Liu wrote a contract in displeasure, and then threw a small piece of silver to Yao Chunlin.

"Thank you, Butler Liu!"

Yao Chunlin was overjoyed, nodded and bent down to press his handprint, and then handed Yao Daya, who was crying and struggling, to the mother-in-law of Liu's mansion to hold her.

"Mother! Don't you, mother!!" Yao Daya stretched out her hands and struggled in Qin's direction, yelling heart-piercingly.

"Big girl, mother's big girl! Head of the family, I beg you, don't sell big girl! Let's not go to the city, okay?"

Kneeling at Yao Chunlin's feet, Mrs. Qin desperately tugged on his trouser legs and begged.

"Girl, do you want to find a smoker? Let go! That's not your big sister, that's the Liu family's big girl!"

Hearing this answer, Steward Liu stroked his beard in satisfaction, and asked the mother-in-law to take the girl away with a smile.

…………

After Yao Daya was sold, it didn't help that Qin's crying heartbreakingly while hugging his son.

After Yao Chunlin dug out the money in the package, he took out some money from his bosom, added the two taels of silver, and made up three taels of silver.

After paying three liang of entry fee, he brought Qin's mother and son into the city.

The city is very prosperous and lively!But there is no place for them.

With the remaining two coins, Yao Chunlin gave the two coins to guide the child after entering the city, and then rented a small room in the back alley of Yanhua Street.

It’s the kind where several rooms in one yard are rented separately.

Even for this kind of house, the monthly rent is one yuan and sixty yuan.

With 38 wen left, Yao Chunlin bought three big buns, and the water in the two bamboo tubes was gone.

Then he asked Mrs. Qin to go out to work, "I've already asked, the girls in the Hualou next door will ask the nearby women to help wash clothes, you can pick up the work tomorrow."

"What? The head of the house, you want... I go to pick up the work in the flower building?" Qin looked at the man in front of her in disbelief.

Yao Chunlin didn't take it seriously, "What's the matter? Aren't you also sold? I didn't ask you to pick up customers."

Hearing her husband's humiliating words, Qin wished she could hit her head to death on the spot, but she couldn't let go of the ignorant young son and the life-or-death daughter in her arms.

As for Yao Chunlin, after eating and drinking enough to give orders, he lay still on the bed.

There was a missing daughter in the family, and he didn't even feel sad at all...

.........

In order to let her son have something to eat, Qin went to Hualou the next day and begged hard to get a job.

She washes clothes in the backyard of Hualou every morning, and returns home after paying her wages in the afternoon.

Because the water is so precious now, there is no water to wash clothes in the yard she rented.

But in the backyard of Hualou, there is an ancient well. It is said that it has a history of many years and has never dried up.

 I am broken, my heart is broken () I will make up this overnight, everyone will watch it tomorrow morning~
  Cool it down, cool it down, hey!
