Chapter 16:

? In the middle of the night, Xiaohua woke up suddenly.
She seemed to hear someone calling her, and she looked around.
The moonlight outside seemed to be very good, shining through the slit of the window nailed by the wooden strips, and the house could be seen clearly even when it fell. Liu Ye and Cui Lan seem to have fallen asleep, and they hugged and curled up in the corner.
Xiaohua heard someone whispering to her again, and she slowly followed the voice to the window.
Looking out through the gap, I realized that it was Wang's mother-in-law.
"Mother-in-law, why are you here?"
Mrs. Wang's old face was tight, and she seemed sad and afraid of causing Xiaohua to be sad.
"You stupid girl, haven't you heard the wind worrying about you."
Xiaohua wanted to cry a little, but she was also afraid of hurting her old lady, so she smiled, "You don't have to worry about me, mother-in-law, I'm fine."
Wang Zizi finally couldn't help crying, fearing that her mouth would be heard covering her mouth, "Your stupid girl has been sold, how can it be good, but unfortunately I can't speak, I can only watch."
Xiaohua raised her head, held back the tears she was about to shed, took a deep breath, and said with a strong smile: "Mother-in-law, you despise me too. I also said that Xiaohua was sold many times. I wo n’t live that long. "
Wang Zizi was amused by crying and laughing, "Just think about it like this, your mother-in-law is afraid that you can't hold it."
Even if the king-in-law is out of sight, Xiaohua raised her fist and waved, "Mother-in-law, don't underestimate me, but I am a small wildflower in the field, the wind won't die, the rain won't die, even if it falls here, next year It can still be opened. "She blinked hard, trying to blink her tears back," Yes, mother-in-law, how do you know we are here? "
Wang Zizi wiped away the old tears. "I have stayed in this house for so many years. I do n’t know where in this house. The sellers are usually kept in this yard. It ’s a pity that the house is well guarded, this yard There are a few doors outside, or mother-in-law really wants to secretly let you out. "
Xiaohua twitched her mouth and pretended to say easily: "Mother-in-law, you are stupid. Even if you let me go, I have no place to live. In this world, where can a little girl go to live. There is no household registration, personal contract It ’s still in the hands of people, and it ’s even worse to be caught and escaped.

Wang Zizi muttered to herself, "Yeah, alas--"
She tucked a small cloth bag down the window, "You hold it, some of it eats and some silver."
Xiaohua refused, "Mother-in-law, why are you giving me money? I don't want it."
Wang Zizi anxiously said: "You stupid girl, was sold in a hurry, there must be no money on her body. With a little bit of it, there is really something that can have a self-defense."
Xiaohua thought about it too, and took it, holding the small cloth bag tightly with her fingers.
"Mother-in-law, thank you."
"Thank you, it's useless for the wife to ask for money, but it's not too much, just protect yourself." Seeing the atmosphere is frozen, Wang Zizi said: "Where have you been sold, the wife didn't ask, But one thing, the lady should not sell you to the pickled place, after all, those two were used by the four young masters. "
This idea coincided with Xiaohua, and after hearing this, Xiaohua's heart was suspended.
The two said a few more words before Wang Zizi was ready to leave. Before leaving, Qiang smiled and said: "The old lady is still afraid that you can't think about it, can have the strength you just had, and can live anywhere."
"Grandma take care." Xiaohua murmured.
"Little girl, you take care too."
After Wang Zizi left, Xiaohua nestled back to the corner. She looked at Cuilan and Liu Ye on the ground, but neither of them woke up.
She opened the cloth bag, which contained two pieces of broken silver horns, and two cakes. The cake is very small, only the slap is large, it is estimated that the mother-in-law knows that the window is not too big, so she passed it so small.
After tears for a long time, it came out at once.
She took a cake and broke it into her mouth. Chewing the cake in his mouth and burst into tears.
I kept telling myself that it ’s okay, is n’t it just being sold, and is n’t it? She is a small wildflower that can't be beaten, and can live wherever the wind blows.
When I think so, tears can't stop.
I ate a cake and put the other in my arms. Xiaohua looked at the pieces of broken silver and thought about wrapping it with that piece of cloth. She pulled a piece of cloth from her clothes and tied it to her thigh.
Fortunately, he didn't have any jewelry on his body, otherwise he didn't know where to hide it.
Packing herself up, she closed her eyes and continued to sleep, forcing herself not to think about anything.
When I woke up, the sky was already bright, and when Xiaohua was unclear, Cuilan began to pat the door there again. This time it was not to ask to see the young master, but to eat.
But no one came to call it. Cuilan saw that there was no one outside, and the location was remote. She could not hear the movement outside. She turned her head and looked at the two in horror. Are we starving here? "
Liu Ye didn't speak, but his breath became heavy.
Xiaohua couldn't bear to look at her embarrassed look, glanced at her, and said: "That wouldn't be the case, they will sell us before we starve to death. So, you better save your energy, lest Can't wait for that time. "
Cuilan wanted to cry again. When she thought of Xiaohua, she quickly stopped crying.
The three of them found a place to lie in, and no one spoke to anyone. Liu Ye and Cui Lan sometimes chuckled faintly, and the little flowers curled up in the corners, too lazy to take care of them.
The room was bright and dark and bright, and another small cake was also eaten by Xiaohua at night.
There was no vocal sound outside until the third day. At this time, the three Xiaohua had been hungry and exhausted.
Especially Xiaohua, when she was growing her body, she ate two small cakes in two days. If it hadn't been carried by the previous experience of starvation, Xiaohua would have been hungry for a long time.
Two sturdy women came in, looking serious, holding a plate of buns and a pot of water in their hands.
After coming in, he kicked Cuilan lying on the ground and told them to get up and eat.
Xiaohua's eyes were bright, and she stood up and walked staggeringly.
Pour some water for yourself before going to get the buns.
Although Cuilan and Liuye are extremely hungry, they have not adapted to their status. A man took a bun and sat on the ground to nibble. Xiaohua sees that they are so gentle, and he politely copied three buns from the plate. There were two in my arms, one in my hand, and I sat on the ground and chewed slowly.
One of the chubby and chubby women said gruffly: "Everyone hurries to eat, and after eating it is ready to go on the road."
The woman said it was scary, but Xiaohua understood what she meant, which meant they were about to be sold.
Xiaohua had expected this to happen, otherwise she wouldn't have both buns in her arms. When we got there, it was called a meal and no meal.
Cuilan ate a bun in one breath, feeling that she was not hungry, and then begged the wife to see the young master.
The chunky mother-in-law looked at her disdainfully and said, "Young Master will not see you, don't even think about it, honestly don't trouble me, I won't give you the pain."
Cuilan tried to cry and begged for a moment. She was scratched by a strong woman next to her, and immediately muttered.
Seeing the three of them eating almost the same, the two wives glanced at Cuilan and Liu Ye, and their hands passed with the eyes, pulling down the silver hairpins on the heads of the two.
Liu Ye screamed: "What are you doing, this is my thing."
The strong woman-in-law took a sip, "It's all sold back to you, and nothing is yours." He said that he and Cuilan pressed the ground together with the chunky woman, Ju Fan's valuables were dragged down.
Where Cuilan and Liu Ye have seen such a battle, they are paralyzed and weeping.
After the two wives searched Cuilan, they looked at Xiaohua again. Seeing this little girl, her skinny and thin face was gray, there was no jewelry on her head, and her small body seemed too thin to hide anything, only the chest was bulging.
Seeing the eyes of the two wives, Xiaohua immediately smiled and pulled out her bun. He pretended to be wronged and said: "Two mothers, I have just been promoted to the maidservant for a few days. I used to be a maid. I have been implicated just after a good day for two days." Woo crying.
The two wives also knew the situation, so they didn't say anything else, scolded the two of Cuilan, and let the three follow them.
I walked out of this desolate courtyard all the way and wore a few doors before I came to a small house.
At this time a fat old lady stood in the small house. When she saw the two ladies, she nodded and bowed her waist. The already vicious face was full of grinning smiles.
Xiaohua saw a very familiar dad and suddenly felt a trance in her heart.
Qian Yapo is actually her.
It was through the hands of Qian Yapo that she was sold to Beijing at the beginning. This old woman was cruel and cruel, and of course it was a slave to her. When facing the rich and wealthy housekeepers, they completely changed their faces.
"Two old sisters in charge are here, these three girls?"
The chunky woman-in-law said: "Miss Qianya, these three people will be handed over to you. Our wife confessed that she would sell Beijing and sell it far away." Thinking of the above explanation, she said again: "Sell Just be a slave-servant, you know the rest. "
Qian Yapo licked her face and smiled, "That's for sure. That's for sure. I'm doing things, and I'm at ease in my house."
She is engaged in dental business, but not only as a salesperson, but also as responsible for dealing with some private interests of some wealthy and wealthy families. Those who offended their masters will be sold to the next three places. The other kind is used by the young masters in the government, and will be scrupulous.
Sometimes she really can't figure out what those people think, and everyone has decided to deal with it, so much attention. Where to sell is not to sell it, anyway, seeing is invisible. But she did things for others, why she can deal with so many wealthy people, because she knows her duty, as long as she confessed to it, she can handle it well.
Looking at the two embarrassed but obviously ‘good seedlings’, Qian Yapo felt sorry for the pain and pain. It was a pity that the two good seedlings.
After the negotiation between Qian Yapo and the manager, she directed her entourage to drag in.
Xiaohua had dealt with Qian Yapo, and heard that the steward mother said it was sold as a slave-servant, so she went out without struggling.
Cuilan Liuye also wanted to struggle, and was slapped by Qian Yapo's wife and his wife, and the person was honest.
