After being driven back to the countryside, the fake daughter farmed and became a group favorite

Chapter 126
A few people do what they say.

One by one, they talked about their plans and arrangements and finally decided on the results.

"That's it!!" Sheng Xiaoju made a final decision with a palm.

She slapped the table hard, "Go! Let's go now!!!"

When the door opened with a creak, everyone froze for a moment, their faces turning pale.

"Ling...Ganoderma lucidum...Sister."

Sheng Xiaoju kept backing away, looking at Axia and Magpie anxiously.

But those girls were not much better, their pale faces lowered their heads, wishing they could burrow into a hole like a gopher.

"Who stole it? Stand up for me!" Sheng Lingzhi walked in with a cold face.

After crossing the threshold, she locked the door with a bang.

In an instant, the surrounding people quieted down.

Sheng Xiaoju trembled slightly, and quickly hid behind the magpie, her eyes rolling around.

Suddenly, her eyes froze on the table for a few seconds, then she poked her head out from behind the magpie, and said weakly, "It's not stealing, it's me, it's the book we've studied for so long, just now, I stumbled through a passage just now. The story, just, I want to perform a storytelling on the first day of the new year."

Seeing the sincerity of what she said, Sheng Lingzhi was dubious.

But this new year's day, she has to understand.

After Sheng Lingzhi left, a few people were afraid that she would not believe her, so they performed.

If she hadn't seen her crying heart-piercingly just now, with tears crackling, Sheng Xiaoju would have suspected that the person just now was not her.

"I still have more." Steward Zhang immediately asked someone to carry them back, and brought another ten boxes.

"Let me show you the bottom of my press box." Steward Zhang mysteriously opened the box, took it out, and said, "These ten boxes are all one book, and it's not finished yet. These are just the first half. When you finish reading it, come back. Change it."

"One book?" Sheng Xiaoju's mouth twitched, "I spent half my life writing it, why did I write so much?"

"I don't know if there are many or not, but this book is very complicated. When you read it, don't read it in the wrong order, otherwise you won't understand the plot."

"Uh-huh."

Sheng Xiaoju nodded, and returned home excitedly. Mrs. Lan saw the boxes brought back one after another, and hurried over to ask, "What's wrong, she won't accept it?"

"..."

Sheng Xiaoju was embarrassed for three seconds, glanced at Magpie, and found that his face was dark, so she had no choice but to explain, "Take it, and change the book."

"..."

Sister-in-law Lan was speechless, looked at those things, and then at Sheng Xiaoju's stomach, "Xiaoju, take the book to my room, you have to read it before you get it."

"It's so troublesome, just leave it there."

"Your house hasn't been refurbished yet, why don't you take a look at how the house is burnt?"

"...Listen to sister-in-law, let sister-in-law stay."

At night, Sheng Xiaoju, who had no books to read, tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. All she could think about was the story and the characters in the story, and then, the next day, she went to the doctor with dark circles under her eyes.

"Sheng Xiaoju, what's wrong with you?" asked the woman seeing a doctor.

"Oh……"

Sheng Xiaoju rubbed her temples, "I didn't sleep well."

After a busy day, Sheng Xiaoju ran out immediately, as if a dog was chasing her.

"Sister-in-law"

With her heart hanging in her throat, Ah Xia rushed over to grab her, "Sister-in-law, slow down."

"fine."

Sheng Xiaoju, who was in a hurry, didn't listen, she said something perfunctory, and hurried home.

When she arrived at the side door, the servant didn't open the door, so she knocked on the door impatiently, "Why do you want to eat? I'm already back and you still don't open the door?"

As soon as the door was opened a crack, Sheng Xiaoju pushed it open, and hurried to Aunt Lan's yard to ask for a book.

Seeing this, Aunt Lan frowned, with a look of disgust on her face: "Axia, your sister-in-law is very irritable, you should find some people to take care of her."

Ah Xia was not very happy, "How can others be as careful as me?"

Sister-in-law Lan: "If you are more careful, you are only one person, with a pair of eyes and hands. If you have something urgent, what should you do if something really happens?"

Sheng Xiaoju, who was enjoying reading, raised her head, "Axia, it's not that you can't serve us when we hire people? You can keep an eye on them every day. If anyone doesn't take good care of me, you roll up your sleeves and cut her!"

"Ok."

Axia reluctantly agreed, "Then let's look for it tomorrow."

"it is good."

The next day, Heng Shantang invited two doctors from the Imperial Hospital to sit in for a consultation, and the three mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went to find hardworking people to invite them.

The capital city is not like theirs. At a glance, there is not a single prostitute. After walking for a day, everyone is exhausted when they return home.

"It seems that this is fate." Ah Xia couldn't bear her excitement, "We should stop looking for it, and let me take care of sister-in-law."

"It's not fate." Sheng Xiaoju supported her forehead, Axia was probably waiting for her to let her speak, but the family really needed a few polite servants.

She said, "I originally planned to hire someone, but now it seems that I should buy someone."

"Ah?" Ah Xia and Mrs. Lan glanced at each other, and then asked together: "How do people buy?"

"Tomorrow you will know."

Sheng Xiaoju approached Butler Zhang to ask about the door, introduced a toothmaid, and later bought ten slaves.

Looking at them is like seeing myself in a previous life.

Sheng Xiaoju couldn't help trembling while holding their contract of prostitution.

"Xiaoju..." Steward Zhang held her hand and said softly, "I know you are kind-hearted and think buying and selling slaves is not good, but this is the way to survive. Don't tear up the contract of sale just because you see someone pitiful. That way no one will thank you, and it’s easy to offend people.”

"I understand." She sniffed, tears rolling in the frame.

It turned out that she had really become the person she hated the most.

"I still won't buy it." Sheng Xiaoju retreated.

"No." Zhang Butler said, "Don't look at them poorly, but this is their fate. After being a criminal minister, being a slave can get a good master, which is also a blessing they cultivated in their previous lives."

"After the guilty minister?" Sheng Xiaoju's eyes widened, "What if he is really a child of a good family and is sold?"

"His parents sell it, and it's their fate." Butler Zhang said, "Xiaoju, everyone has his own fate, so don't meddle in your own business."

"..."

It turns out that in front of real nobles, the hope of slaves is so ridiculous.

In an instant, Sheng Xiaoju didn't want to buy it.

Butler Zhang tried to persuade him to no avail, and left angrily.

After walking a few steps and coming back, he whispered a few words in his ear worriedly, and finally said: "This is the only way to make an example of others. Don't be soft-hearted."

"Ah."

Sheng Xiaoju was perfunctory, sent the people away and came back, and saw a group of bought people kneeling in front of Aunt Lan, crying and shouting that they were tricked into selling them, not slaves, but good family members, begging for forgiveness They go home.

At that moment, Steward Zhang's words rang in his ears before he left: "They will catch you for being soft-tempered, please let them go, don't be soft-hearted!"

Looking at them, he instantly woke up.

If you buy someone and let them go, and your temper is manipulated, wouldn't you be a slave whose mind is controlled?
Thinking of this, Sheng Xiaoju said to Axia: "Axia, the time has come to stand up, you can do whatever you want."
