In the quiet mountain village, a bullock cart suddenly drove up.

By this time, every household had finished their dinner and was about to go to bed, except for the occasional barking of dogs.

The bullock cart passed through the quiet village and stopped in front of a small bridge. A couple in their mid-twenties and an eighty-nine-year-old boy picked up the baggage and got out of the cart.

The man paid the fare and asked the driver again: "Is that the right yard after crossing the bridge?"

The driver came from Xiahe Village, a place he often came to. He took the fare with a smile and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, that's Mr. Qin, the housekeeper."

The coachman was curious and asked one more question: "Are you her relatives?"

The couple shook their heads and had no intention of answering. They thanked the coachman and led their son, who was looking around curiously, towards the small courtyard on the other side of the river.

Qin Yao's house is busy right now.

Dinner started a little late today, and the children at home had to do their homework, and the adults had endless work to do. I had just finished dinner and were sitting at the dining table to eat. Except for Awang, all the other six members of the family were moving. No.

The four Dalang brothers and sisters were discussing how Sanlang and Siniang's exquisite new hairstyles today caused a discussion in the school. Liu Jigang had learned new knowledge for a day, and when he heard this, his mind felt restless and dizzy.

Just as he was about to shout and go back to their own room to make noise, a strange voice sounded outside the door first.

"Dong dong" there were two knocks on the door, and a gentle-sounding male voice said loudly:

"General Manager Qin, my servant Song Yu, Mr. Song ordered my servant to come and report. I was delayed for a while on the way. I just arrived at this time. I hope General Manager Qin will open the door so that my servant can come and apologize to you in person with his family!"

The family of six in the main room looked at each other and fell silent instantly. Then Liu Ji and the four siblings looked at Qin Yao, who was lazily lying on the chair.

After all, the person calling him was Manager Qin.

When Qin Yao left the county government yesterday, she told Song Zhang not to forget what he had promised. She was leaving in a hurry and only heard from a distance that Song Zhang would make arrangements on the day of the announcement.

But she didn't see anyone coming from morning to night today. She thought Song Zhang was delayed by affairs and had no time to make arrangements.

Unexpectedly, he actually did what he said.

Although the sky is completely dark now, tomorrow will be in two hours.

But after all, it is within the promise.

Qin Yao stood up and called Awang to open the door first.

The door opened, revealing a young couple with a little boy about the same age as Erlang.

The three of them behaved so intimately that they looked like a family of three.

Song Yu led his wife and children through the door, and when they saw Qin Yao, they knelt down together.

"My slave Song Yu, along with his wife Li Shi and their son Xiao Laifu, come to see my wife, master, three young masters and young ladies!"

After that, the three of them kowtowed together.

The four Dalang brothers and sisters who were following Qin Yao saw Little Laifu knocking him hard and subconsciously wanted to step out and pull him.

However, with this thought in mind, the four siblings did not act rashly.

After following A Niang for a long time, under Qin Yao's words and deeds, the four siblings have learned to think twice before acting.

Song Yu took out two body deeds from his baggage, raised his hands above his head, and presented them to Qin Yao.

"Madam, this is a deed of sale to the Xianu family. You are now the master of the Xianu family. If the master needs anything, Song Yu and his wife Li will do their best to handle it!"

Qin Yao raised her eyebrows and lowered her head to look at the two status deeds handed over by Song Yu.

The light in the courtyard was dim. Liu Ji didn't know when he brought the candlestick from the house and immediately raised it high so that Qin Yao could see clearly. These are two deeds of sale, with Qin Yao's name written on them.

With these two physical contracts, the fate of Song Yu and his wife will be in Qin Yao's hands.

She wants them to live and they cannot die. She can sell them to others at any time. Even if the family of three escapes, they can rely on this contract to recover them with the help of the government.

The couple, two living people, had become her private property.

Because they are slaves, the lowest class in Shengguo.

This was the first time in Liu Ji's life that he saw such a contract of betrayal. His eyes flickered back and forth between the paper and Soong Yu's family. It was novel and incredible.

The three members of Soong Yu's family are dressed neatly and freshly. Their clothes are all made of cotton and don't have a single patch.

The three of them are still healthy and healthy, which shows that the food was not bad in the past.

Dressed like this, in Liujia Village, it is more glamorous than the common people in Liujia Village. How can it look like a slave?

If Song Yu hadn't revealed his identity himself, who would have known he was a slave?

And if you listen to this statement, he is actually quite knowledgeable.

If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, Liu Ji would like to ask: Do nobles today have such high demands on slaves?

Of course, as a master, he cannot show cowardice.

Under Qin Yao's nod, Liu Ji raised his hand and called Song Yu's family of three to get up from the ground, "The first rule of our family is that you are not allowed to kneel."

But that doesn’t include me, the eldest man. Liu Ji's heart was filled with tears.

Song Yu and Li immediately nodded and said, "Yes."

There was no surprise or asking why, and complete obedience made people feel that they were trustworthy.

Qin Yao handed the deed of sale to Awang first and signaled Soong Yu and his family to follow her into the main room.

"Awang, cook three bowls of noodles for Song Yu and the others." Qin Yao ordered.

By the way, he introduced it to the family of three: "This is Awang. He is responsible for all matters in the family. If you have anything you don't understand, you can go to him first."

Song Yu and his wife immediately called Awang politely and flatteringly: "Butler Awang."

Li said: "Madam, I'd better go by myself, and follow Butler Awang to get familiar with the kitchen at home."

Song Yu also said: "Madam, the slave came late and disturbed the master, young master and ladies. It was my fault in the first place. Madam, not only did you not blame me, but you also took care of us. I am grateful to you, how dare you?" Please trouble Butler Awang again."

"It just so happens that Li is a good cook. Let her prepare it. The white flour is fine and too expensive. All you need is three bowls of multigrain porridge."

Mrs. Li looked over, with a provocative and probing attitude.

Qin Yao narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "You don't need to test me. I don't have that much attention in the countryside here, and I can't afford to pay attention to these rules."

"I don't know how you are treated in the Song family, but here, you eat what I eat, you wear what I wear, and you use what I use."

Qin Yao solemnly added: "What I want is someone who can help me with the work. There is no shortage of slaves to serve others."

With that said, he motioned to Awang to continue doing what he said, turned around and strode into the main room.

Liu Ji pulled out a Taishi chair for her. Qin Yao sat down, and he took a seat in the other one.

Although the couple sat in the same position, Song Yu and Mrs. Li could tell at a glance who was the master of the family.

Qin Yao winked at Dalang, and the four siblings, who had been waiting politely, started to move and enthusiastically came forward to greet Xiao Laifu. They were all children of the same age, and the five of them quickly started playing together.
