Chapter 248 Meditation

Several granddaughters of Mr. Sun’s family, when they heard that they were going to be sold, all of them cried and their eyes turned red. The man hid in the corner, silently wiping away tears.

  Sun Feixue went out from the hall and went directly to find Yu Xiaolian. She is twelve years old and was among the few people who were sold.

   She and Yu Xiaolian got on well along the way, and now only Yu Xiaolian can save her.

  Yu Changhe didn't expect Fourth Master Sun to change his mind so quickly about what was discussed just now.

   It seems that we have to go over and discuss it again.

  Yu Xiaolian reassured Sun Feixue, she promised that she would not be betrayed, and then followed her parents to the hall.

When Fourth Master Sun saw Yu Changhe coming in, he made his decision. He didn't want his children and grandchildren to become slaves. Although he had never raised slaves, he had heard that slaves in Daliang couldn't take part in the imperial examinations. , let alone intermarry with common people. Although there are no serious scholars in his family, if he changes his slave status, then his grandchildren will only be able to marry maidservants, and common people's girls will not marry.

  Yu Changhedao, "To be honest with my fourth uncle, the dental shops in Los Angeles are overcrowded, and people... are the least valuable thing now.

  If you want to sell them girls for more than a hundred taels, that's impossible.

   If you don't believe me, you can go to the dental store to inquire about the market.

  Now a girl is only worth six or seven taels of silver, and a girl with better looks may be worth ten taels or eight taels. "

   Fourth Master Sun hesitated for a moment, and said, "Is it the only way you said?"

  If the parents change their status as slaves and their children and grandchildren cannot take the imperial examinations, then this pulse will never be reversed for the rest of their lives.

  Yu Xiaolian took a step forward, "Fourth Grandpa, becoming a slave now is just a stopgap measure. When you have money in your hands, tell my father, and my father will return the bond of sale to you.

  I believe that you should trust my father. If you didn't like my father, you wouldn't come all the way to join my family.

  We have discussed briefly just now, if you agree to become a slave, then we will go through the normal procedure, go to the government for filing, and put our fingerprints and seals on the deed of sale.

In the future, if you help my family with work, we will also give you monthly money. When you save some money and feel that you can buy a house and land, then we will return the deed of sale to you, and you can take it to the government office to eliminate the case That's it.

  Of course, if there are people who don’t want to sell themselves to our family, we won’t force them. If anyone of you thinks you have the ability to break through outside, I support you. "

   Fourth Master Sun fell into deep thought.

  Sun Wuye called Yu Changhe, "Since you left, a school opened next door, and my family Manzhi also went to school for a few days. Can you make him a Baiji?"

   "Father, what can we do if we don't belong in vain? We don't have any money to pay for Manzhi to go to school now." Sun Erji's daughter-in-law said.

   They eat and live in other people's Yu's family. Does the old Yu's family still have to send their children to school?

  They are not the living ancestors of Lao Yu's family.

   Sun Wuye blushed, thinking that what his second daughter-in-law said was reasonable, so he kept silent.

  Yu Xiaolian can actually make these people all white, but she has seen the fact that if these people are all white, then they can't be bothered at all, and it will be bad for management in the future.

   Especially Sun Dalin's wife and Sun Manbo, I don't know what trouble it will cause them. It's different to hold their deeds of sale in their hands. Are you obedient?

   If you are disobedient and betray you, although you will not really sell you, but if you use this to scare people, there is no one who is not afraid.

   Fourth Master Sun was still thinking, as if he couldn't make up his mind.

  Yu Changhe said, "Let's not be in a hurry for these three days or two days, just think slowly."

   After finishing speaking, he turned around and asked, "Is there any good food?"

  Sun Daji's wife said, "The meal is ready, it's been a long time, and I'm just waiting for everyone to discuss and finish the matter!"

  Yu Changhe waved his hand, "Then what are you waiting for, let's eat first!"

  The dining room in the main courtyard is not small, but it is full of people who squeezed into it.

  Yu Changhe greeted Fourth Master Sun and the others to sit at the dinner table.

  As for other people holding their own bowls on the road, eating food, or squatting or sitting on the ground, they also ate deliciously.

  Grandma Gao made three big pot dishes, potato stew, fried cabbage slices with meat, and braised pork. Although the taste of the big pot dishes made by Gao Granny was mediocre, they were quickly eaten by everyone in the Sun family.

  The three pots of rice were also eaten, and there was not even rice quack left.

  Sister Yu Xiaolian and Zhao Erya ate in their own room. Zhao Erya set aside meals in advance and brought them into Yu Xiaolian's room.

  Yu Xiaolian asked, "Did Su Xiucai's share go to the house?"

  Zhao Erya replied, "I'm eating. Master Jing Yue brought it to the house, and Master Hu also ate with them."

  Yu Xiaolian nodded.

  Just finished eating, Zhao Erya cleaned up the dishes and said, "That Sun Manyu is still lying in the yard, do you want to untie it for her? Let her have a meal."

  Yu Xiaolian said, "Don't worry about her, I didn't let her be tied up."

  It was her grandfather who asked her father to tie her up, and she didn't care if the roper was needed to untie the rope.

  Zhao Erya took down the tableware, Zhao Sanya didn't help her second sister, but went to Yu Xiaolian.

"Sister Xiao Lian, I was helping in the kitchen just now, and I heard a woman speak ill of you. She said that the reason why you went to pick them up was to find free servants, and she also said that our family is so big, it is impossible to have no money for them. Bai Ji, say that you deliberately manipulated them."

  Yu Xiaolian asked, "Is that woman thin and short, with her teeth protruding a bit?"

  Zhao Sanya tilted her head and thought for a while, then nodded with certainty, "Well, she is wearing a gray dress with a short blue jacket over it."

  Judging from her clothes, she is Sun Dalin's wife, that's right. I didn't expect to start making small moves on the first day after arriving home. She really wanted to open the door and throw her out for such a picky person.

Yu Xiaolian grabbed a handful of candy from the drawer of the dressing cabinet and gave it to Zhao Sanya, "Sister Xiaolian knows, our Sanya is really good, you continue to pay attention, listen to what they have to say, and then come back tell me."

  Zhao Sanya took the candy happily, and said in a crisp voice, "I will definitely be able to complete this task, don't worry, sister Lian."

  Little guy, you still know the mission. It seems that the words she usually blurt out have also subtly affected the Zhao family sisters.

  In the hall, after eating, the women were busy removing the dishes and cleaning the kitchen.

  Yu Changhe persuaded Fourth Master Sun and Fifth Master Sun to lie down and rest. There is no rush to settle the household registration.

   To put it bluntly, as long as no one reports and the government doesn’t come to investigate, it’s fine all the time. Even if you don’t have a household registration, it will be difficult for you to come in after leaving the city gate.

   In the past, the inspection might not have been so strict, but now there are too many refugees coming here from the north and the south. Without household registration or road guides, it is impossible to enter the city.

  Household registration is equivalent to a modern ID card.

   Please recommend tickets, monthly tickets, thank you!
