six-fingered peasant girl

Chapter 124
After signing the death contract, Hua'er's father took the five taels of silver given by Su Liu, and disappeared without a trace in an instant, without even looking at Hua'er, let alone saying anything.

Hua'er looked at his back and fell to the ground with a cry, unable to tell whether it was sad or crying for the rest of her life.

Su Liu waited quietly. On the table was a deed paper whose ink was still wet, with the middleman's handprint on it.Just a piece of paper, just five taels of silver, traps a person's life, and there is no more freedom from now on, life and death are at the discretion of the master, how sad?

After crying for a quarter of an hour, Hua'er was sobbing and choking, she raised her head inadvertently, and saw Su Liu looking at her with pity, her eye circles were even redder, but her lips were tightly pursed, kneeling in front of Su Liu.

"Girl, I'm sorry." She lowered her head and wiped her tears with the back of her hand.

"You have also seen today how your father treats you. In his heart, he no longer has you as a daughter, only the word "gambler." Su Liu said lightly: "Actually, I really don't want to buy you, you know why ?"

Hua'er's body trembled, her head lowered, and she said after a long time, "Is it because Hua'er has such a father?"

"That's right." Su Liu said bluntly and fearlessly: "Gambling is the hardest thing to quit. Once you get addicted to drugs, a family will definitely go bankrupt, and your wife and children will be separated. You know it very well."

Hua'er pursed her lips and nodded.

"Your mother left you like this, and now, your father wants to sell you to a building, regardless of the slightest affection between father and daughter. It can be seen that the gambling addiction is very deep. And you, even if you hate her, in your heart, Your father, is it the father who gave birth to you and raised you?"

Hua'er raised her head abruptly, with a little panic in her eyes, she whispered: "Girl."

"You don't have to deny it. If you say you don't admit it at all, then I don't believe it. That's why I don't want to buy you, because I'm afraid it will cause trouble for myself." Su Liu looked at her lightly.

Hua'er's face turned from white to red, and then from red to purple, obviously she understood the meaning of Su Liu's words.

"Girl, I..."

"You are already my Su Liu's person. No matter how much you admit your father in your heart, I don't want to see you do something for your father in the future that I cannot tolerate." Su Liu's voice was a little cold, and said: "If One day, you betrayed me, maybe every master of the Su family, so don't blame me for being cruel."

Such a blatant threat is not a warning, but a reminder before a good word.

Hua'er really felt a little scared this time, Su Liu in front of her, looked not much older than herself, but seemed to be able to see through everything about herself, which made people feel sincerely scared.

"Girl, Hua'er is not an ungrateful person, Hua'er dare not." She prostrated herself on the ground.

"Get up, don't just kneel." Su Liu waited for a while before calling out.

"How old are you this year?"

"Back to the girl, Hua'er is twelve." Hua'er said tremblingly.

"Since you have signed the death contract, you should forget your previous identity. In the future, you will be called Iced Tea." Su Liu's eyes flicked across the big tea sign on the opposite side of the stall.

Hua'er was startled, and then said: "Ice tea, thank you for giving me the name."

"Well, I'm afraid your grandmother is flustered. You go talk to her old man, go to clean up the house, and come here again. In the future, you will live with me in Da'ao Village."

Iced Tea pursed her lips, bowed her head in thanks, rushed over, and threw herself into the arms of the old woman, the grandparent and grandson cried together.

Su Liu sighed, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw Sister-in-law Yang standing at the side, not daring to breathe, and said, "Let's all go to work."

The two quickly retreated and came to the kitchen. Sister-in-law Yang patted her brother's mouth and said in a low voice: "It scared me to death. I always feel that the eldest girl is kind, so she is so mighty."

"When you are a big girl, you are young, and you have the right idea. Let's see if you dare to be a good person in the future." Sister-in-law Cheng whispered.

"I didn't think so deeply, I felt that girl was pitiful, that's why..." Sister-in-law Yang said angrily, "I really didn't think about the future."

"Take it easy, the eldest girl has big ideas in her heart, so just do our errands."

Sister-in-law Yang nodded vigorously, and from then on, both of them treated Su Liu in awe and respect.

Bringing the iced tea back to the small courtyard of the Su family, Su Liu told Chen Shi and the others about the general situation of buying this girl. The house is too small.

Now their mother and daughter live in the main room, and Chen Ye lives alone, but Chen Ye is the adopted son of the Chen family and a serious master, and his age is about the same as that of iced tea. Liu and the others arranged a girl for Chen Ye when they were young. It would be difficult to let Ice Tea live in Chen Ye's room. If it spread, what would it sound like?

The iced tea is also very cute, seeing Su Liu and the others' difficulties, they offered to live in the woodshed.

It's winter now, it's impossible to live in a firewood house, it's too cold, but fortunately the house is about to be built, so Su Liu asked Bingcha to share a room with them and temporarily build a wooden bed.

The iced tea was settled in Su's family just like that. In order to get used to the iced tea and the grandmother of the iced tea, Su Liu didn't let her go to the town with her, but stayed at home and helped Chen's with various things.

Su Liu's family bought a girl, and word spread quickly in the village. Seeing that girl follow her, doing this and that, she couldn't help being envious.

When this reached Su Chuntao's ears, her lungs exploded, especially when she saw her hands with chilblains.

Walking home with the basin of freshly washed clothes in his arms, he happened to meet Su Liu and that little maid, is this showing off?
Su Liu came back from Sun Xiucai's house with iced tea, and was ordering the iced tea in a low voice, but she didn't expect Su Chuntao to block the way.

"Hey, this is pretending to be a big head. I'm afraid that anyone who has never seen a girl will bring it out to show off." Su Chuntao looked at Su Liu wearing brand-new clothes, red coral pendants on her ears, and new jewelry on her head. There was another girl by her side, her style was just like the ladies in the city, her eyes were red when she saw it, she wished she could take off all of Su Liu's body and put it on her body.

Su Liu is just a lowly girl, why should she become a young lady, and she still has to wash her clothes, and she gets frostbite from washing, woo woo.

Su Liu looked Su Chuntao up and down, took a step closer, and said, "Who am I? It turns out to be Sister Chuntao. Why is it your turn to do the laundry? Oh, look at your hands, you have frostbite, it's pitiful." , how did it become like this?"

Su Chuntao's complexion changed slightly, she wanted to hide her hands, and said angrily, "Su Liu, don't be complacent! Do you really think you are a phoenix? You don't look like a prince in a dragon robe, do you think you are a lady if you wear good clothes? I bother!"

"What's wrong with me?" Su Liu sneered, and looked at her disdainfully: "Su Chuntao, you also have today, and in the past winter, it was our mothers who washed your clothes for you, right? Hehe, the feeling of soaking your hands in ice water How? That taste, is it good?"
