Chapter 9

Two days later, Jiang Shouyi walked into Anqiu City with the two children, weeping with joy!

In the past two days, he only slept for a few hours, and spent the rest of the time on his way.

Seeing that the girl only drank the batter and water, her crying became weak, she was about to starve to death, and finally she was able to enter the city.

There are nine counties in Langya County, except for Kaiyang City, the governing office, Anqiu is the only one with a large garrison.

It is precisely because there is an official garrison that the refugees are not afraid of causing chaos, so the gates of the city are not closed.

But there are still disaster victims everywhere, and countless people freeze to death.

By the roadside in the city, countless people huddled numbly in the alleys.There were sergeants patrolling the streets, and at the same time, some stronger victims were organized to clean up the corpses outside the city and clear the way.

The victims who participated in the clean-up work will undoubtedly have enough to eat.

Jiang Shouyi sighed, found an alley, huddled with others to inquire about it, and learned that the local wealthy families in Anqiu would give out porridge every afternoon for disaster relief.

When distributing porridge, there will be stewards who will choose people from among the victims. If there are suitable ones, they can sell themselves and enter the house in exchange for a few buckets of rice noodles.

Jiang Shouyi licked his lips, thinking.

It is obviously extremely difficult for a female doll to be sold as a lover, and the current situation cannot be delayed.

That being the case, it is better to sell it to a rich family, even if it is a slave or a handmaid, at least there will be no shortage of food and clothing.

But after all, he intends to raise Yannu himself to grow up, so he won't sell himself together and watch Xue'er grow up.

If Xue'er was sold to someone else, he would never be able to see her in the future, and would not be able to help her, so he could only feel relieved when she became a lover.

But in this year of catastrophe, human life is worthless, and Xueer is a girl, who would want to be a daughter?
"Oh, try your best," he said bitterly, the child was about to starve to death, and he could only do his best.

"Old man, you two children are so good-looking, why don't you ask Zhang Yazi." The victims who were inquired saw that the child in Jiang Shouyi's arms was juicy and very good-looking, so they introduced him to someone.

"Zhang Yazi?"

Under the guidance of the victims, Jiang Shouyi found a dental clinic.

It turned out that in addition to the stewards of the local wealthy families who were recruiting people, there were also some merchants and dentists who were choosing among the victims.

Countless victims of the disaster could not survive, so selling themselves was extremely cheap. Many dental shops specializing in reselling slaves were like cats smelling fish, wandering in several large refugee gathering places.

Zhang Yazi was one of them. When he saw Jiang Shouyi, he frowned at the first sight.

What a bad old man, and he brought a baby, the baby is the least valuable, and he hasn't been weaned, so why come here, he has to be raised!
Only those who are over ten years old can be sold for a good price.

But when his gaze was fixed on the baby in his arms, after a careful look, he smiled.

"Good guy!" Zhang Yazi is old enough to do his job, he has seen countless people, and his vision is very poisonous!
Even if it's just a child who hasn't been weaned, he can tell what the surface looks like.

And these two children are like beautiful people.

The girl seemed to have been hungry for a long time, and her skin had lost some luster, but she took good care of her, and she would be a stunning beauty in the future.

"Sell the baby or invest in household?" Zhang Yazi asked.

Some disaster victims may still have fields at home, but they are good families, so even if they are poor, they can only sell their children in exchange for money and food to survive.

And some disaster victims already have nothing, so they often simply enslave others with their families, so as not to separate their flesh and blood.

"Selling a baby..." Jiang Shouyi responded softly.

He had already sold his fields before winter and joined the Zhang family in Hua County, becoming a pariah. However, during the snowstorm, the Zhang family ignored him, since there were plenty of tenant farmers anyway.

So as long as he can survive, it doesn't matter if he doesn't go back.

"Okay, put the two children down, and you can get eight buckets of rice." Zhang Yazi waved his hand, as if very generous.

Eight buckets of rice are exchanged for two children. Of course, good times are not exchanged, but now, many disaster victims around show envious expressions, because they sell their ten-year-old children for only two or three buckets of rice.Ba Dou is enough for them to last for a month.

Jiang Shouyi was stunned, and then said, "Even if you're a clay doll, you can't just sell eight buckets of rice!"

"Do clay dolls have to eat? Such a small baby, I still need to find a nanny, so I don't need money to grow up?" Zhang Yazi was very domineering, and he didn't pay attention to Jiang Shouyi at all. Killed a top player in the rivers and lakes.

Jiang Shouyi hugged the child tightly and said, "I won't sell you!"

Zhang Yazi was a little surprised, then suddenly said: "Okay, I'll give you another three hundred Wen."

He doesn't care about adding a little bit. In this year, three hundred coins may not be able to buy three buckets of rice.

These two little dolls look so good, he doesn't want to miss them.

However, Jiang Shouyi still shook his head, and now Zhang Yazi was annoyed: "Old man! Do you think you can bargain? This is my mercy! If you don't sell it, you will starve to death!"

"Crack!" Jiang Shouyi took out a consistent amount of money and said, "Introduce me to a good family who can take her as my daughter."

He didn't want to sell the baby for money, but he really couldn't support himself. After the conversation just now, he knew that Xue'er could not be sold to this person.

"Hey, you old man!" Seeing that he was giving him money, Zhang Yazi was a little confused.

Sell ​​your baby if you have money?He immediately looked at Jiang Shouyi carefully, and suddenly froze.

It turned out that Jiang Shouyi had been sleeping in the snow all the way. When he first arrived, he was like a snowman, no different from the disaster victims outside.

But just now, Zhang Yazi saw the old man's fur coat clearly after shaking off the snow on his body just now.

Although it's just sheep fur, the workmanship is good. This outfit is worth two or three coats, and it's not something ordinary people can afford to wear.

Co-authoring is not a refugee selling a baby, but a business?

Zhang Yazi, as a well-known dentist in Anqiu, mainly works as a middleman.

"So that's how it is. I was rude. The old man comes with me. We'll talk inside... come and serve tea!" The usual introduction fee was already worth his smiling face.

Jiang Shouyi entered the back room and made his intentions clear. Zhang Yazi immediately frowned.

My good fellow, the supply of servants exceeds the demand these years, and you still expect someone to buy a baby and go back to be a daughter?

If you lack a son, maybe you can introduce him, who wants a daughter?
"Old man, you've already sold your baby, so you don't care if she's a good citizen? Well, I can think of a way for you, boy."

Jiang Shouyi was mentally prepared for Zhang Yazi's words, and immediately said, "It's really impossible, I won't sell it for the time being... I'll hire a nanny for a few days first, this baby is starving."

"This..." Zhang Yazi was a little reconciled, he didn't want to miss such a beautiful woman.

As long as he sells to a wealthy family, he can make a lot of money backhanded, even if he is just a middleman, he can make a lot of money.

"Old man, why are you so obsessed with good citizenship? Wouldn't it be nice to be sold into slavery by nobles from aristocratic families?"

"Let me tell you, just a few days ago, Anqiu Zhu's family was going to buy a baby girl, and they didn't know what to do. The price was extremely high, and the requirement was good appearance."

"I sent one at the time, which was also a beauty embryo, but compared to the porcelain doll in your arms... Hey! That's incomparable at all!"

"I don't know if they still want it, old man, if you agree to sell it to the Zhu family, at least you can get ten guan!"

Zhang Yazi tried his best to seduce him, hoping to sell the baby girl to Zhu's house.

Jiang Shouyi sighed, "Being a slave?"

He was very entangled. Of course he knew that his request was ridiculous, so it was really impossible, and he could only be sold to a wealthy family as a servant.

Zhang Yazi replied: "What a waste..."

He was about to say nonsense, but he rolled his eyes and changed his words: "If...you have to say...the Zhu family didn't say that they wanted slaves..."

"The Zhu family is a wealthy family in Anqiu, the head of the clan is Zhan Shi, the prince of the dynasty, and Junxiuli of the younger generation, one is the magistrate of Anqiu County, the other is the captain of the Wuying Commandery of Langya County... they are all great celebrities. Talent."

"This rich family has no shortage of servants. This time, they want to buy an adopted daughter...to prepare for their future marriage! This is the only requirement for appearance, and only a baby!"

As he talked, Zhang Yazi himself believed it.

In fact, it's all guesswork about adopting a daughter, but it's not impossible. Anyway, it's just to trick the old man, so he just said it seriously.

Jiang Shouyi was overjoyed, adopting a daughter is fine too!He doesn't care about marriage or anything, at least they will raise their children well!
From now on, everyone will be a lady, a noble girl from a famous family!What else is there to say, I can't find such a good thing even with a lantern!
This was already Xue'er's most perfect destination that he could imagine!
"Really? You said before that it's impossible for anyone to..." Jiang Shouyi doubted for a moment.

Zhang Yazi blushed and said without panting: "That's because of such a good thing, I have already missed it! I sent a baby girl, but yours is better! I think you can ask! Anyway, one is for adoption, two One is also raising!"

"Okay, okay...Ask! Hurry up and ask!" Jiang Shouyi was ecstatic and nodded repeatedly.

Zhang Yazi grinned: "Follow me!"

He called someone to drive, and led the old man straight to a wealthy mansion in the city.

When they arrived at the place, Zhang Yazi got out of the car first, adjusted his clothes, and knocked on the doorman: "Tan Weng, are you there? The villain is Zhang Yazi..."

This is the small backyard gate of Zhu's mansion. An old porter came out and looked down at Zhang Yazi and Jiang Shouyi.

"What's the matter?"

Zhang Yazi bowed humbly, and said with a smile: "Tan Weng, a few days ago, Miss Xiangyun asked the villain to find a baby girl for your mansion, and the villain found a better baby today. Compared with the one sent last time, It's like a firefly compared to Haoyue!"

"The person has arrived, please tell Tan Weng to tell one or two, the villain is waiting outside the door."

The so-called Miss Xiangyun is actually the personal maid of the wife of the eldest son of the Zhu family, but with such an identity, Zhang Yazi has to be called Miss.

Tan Weng was taken aback: "Looking for a baby girl?"

"You don't know?" Zhang Yazi blinked and said, "Two days ago, the villain brought a baby girl, and it was Miss Xiangyun who came out to pick it up... Oh, you weren't there that day..."

As he talked, Zhang Yazi also felt something was wrong.

He remembered that Xiangyun had warned him to forget about this and not to tell outsiders.Could it be that even the people in the house have lied to it?
"Wait!" Tan Weng turned back and entered the mansion.

And Zhang Yazi was outside the door, shivering, the more he thought about it, the more he felt wrong, the more he thought about it, the more scared he became!
If it is a maidservant, there is nothing to hide. If it is an adopted daughter, it is enough to hide it from outsiders. Tan Weng, as the concierge, is naturally a trustworthy person in the mansion, so there is no need to hide it.

So hiding it from Tan Weng is actually tantamount to hiding it from the whole government!

This must involve the secret affairs of the backyard of the Zhu Mansion, but he actually got involved.

"It's over! It's over! It's a disaster! I'm so besotted!"

Zhang Yazi hated himself for not thinking of it so long ago that he told Jiang Shouyi for the sake of money, so forget it.

In the end, he eagerly led someone to find him, and passed the matter to the concierge again.

The people in Zhu's mansion want their own lives, isn't it like killing a chicken?
"You just wait here... I'll come as soon as I go." Zhang Yazi smiled stiffly, comforting Jiang Shouyi to stay, while he ran away immediately.

He didn't even drive the car, lest Jiang Shouyi be suspicious, he asked Jiang Shouyi to block the knife first and delay for him.

Jiang Shouyi felt strange and grabbed him directly: "You have to stay, what's the matter with you leaving me here?"

"Damn, isn't it over for you to inspect the goods yourself? Let go!" Zhang Yazi was a little anxious, but he couldn't break free from Jiang Shouyi.

It turned out that Jiang Shouyi had eaten and drank enough in the past two days, and Chen Hu's medicine was really good, and his injuries were almost healed, so his strength was not comparable to that of a puffy guy like Zhang Yazi.

Zhang Yazi was cold and sweating on his head, which made Jiang Shouyi more and more suspicious, but he didn't know what was going on, so he didn't let him go.

"All right, let's go! Let's all go!"

"Xiangyun is looking for a baby girl. It's not that the Zhu family wants to adopt a daughter. This matter is hidden from the whole family. I'm afraid it will involve a struggle in the backyard. I'm afraid that Mrs. Fang will use Li to replace the peach..."

While Zhang Yazi was speaking, he had already made up countless scenes in his brain, specially preparing a baby girl, probably to replace the son born by other women?

"You're wrong." Suddenly a cold voice came.

Zhang Yazi turned his head tremblingly, and saw a girl in blue with a sword came out, with a plum blossom with a delicate fragrance stuck in her head.

"Xiang...Miss Xiangyun, the villain is wrong..." Zhang Yazi's legs and feet were weak, and he knelt directly on the ground.

Xiangyun's face was as frosty, and his voice was cold: "Tan Weng also knows his mistake, what are you?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yazi's teeth trembled, his despair reached the extreme.

Tan Weng was the concierge, but he didn't come back, so he must have been killed.

Even an old man like Tan Weng would kill him if he wanted to, how could Xiangyun spare him?
"Run!" Zhang Yazi knew that he was doomed, so he didn't talk nonsense, and ran away desperately.

However, after running a few steps, Xiangyun raised his hand slightly, and saw a flash of red light, and Zhang Yazi fell to the ground.

At the same time, there was also a blood-stained petal on the ground!
"Hiss!" Jiang Shouyi gasped, it was so fast, he didn't even see how Xiangyun flew out of the petals!

This is the petal!It was the plum blossom on Xiangyun's head. At this time of year, if a woman wants to wear a flower, only Aoxue Hanmei is the only one.

Xiang Yun had planned to kill people with this for a long time, but he didn't know when he lightly put a flower petal in his hand, probably because he didn't want to dirty his sword.

Such a fragile thing could easily wipe a person's neck, which was beyond the imagination of people like Jiang Shouyi.

The fragile and soft petals kill people quickly like a flying knife. After killing people, they are not damaged at all, and even fall gently, flying farther without any spare power. Everything is just right.

Everyone knows that behind this is extremely brilliant kung fu, how old is Xiang Yun?Teenage?Is this the real warrior from a wealthy family?

Feeling the murderous aura coming towards him, Jiang Shouyi knew that he was next, and couldn't help but despair.

But he was not afraid of death, so he shouted quickly while he was still able to speak: "I really don't know anything, Miss, you can kill me, and please adopt these two babies, whether it's a slave or a handmaid..."

……

 PS: sorry.
