Traveling through famine years, peasant girls hold space in their hands to store food

Because it is an official house, the deed is much simpler and easier. All you need is someone from the office to handle it.

Lu Qingqing later bought two more farms. They were large in area and not far from the capital. Crops could be planted in those fields in the spring.

Moreover, all the slaves inside were sold to her together, which saved a lot of trouble.

Soon the servants from outside came with a group of women, including many young girls, but their faces were all pale.

"These distinguished guests are all good at embroidery." The waiter said, pointing to the rows of women standing in the yard.

Lu Qingqing put down the book in her hand and slowly stood up and walked towards the door.

She saw that some of them had the word "Slave" branded on their foreheads, and there were still blood stains on them. Looking at those weak bodies, she felt like they could fall down at any time.

Seeing Lu Qingqing's frown, the boy quickly stepped forward to explain:

"Dear guest, those are all sin slaves. They were all before..." The boy's words made Lu Qingqing instantly understand who these people were.

She looked at a soft-looking girl inside, who also had the word "slave" branded on her forehead, but Lu Qingqing could see a hint of perseverance in her clear eyes.

Although his body seemed thinner than the others, he stood upright and his face was pale but not timid at all.

He's an interesting person.

"Whose family did that belong to before?"

She pointed at the girl and asked the boy beside her. She saw him looking in the direction of Lu Qingqing's finger, and then sighed.

"The guest you are talking about is the one you are talking about! She was Master Lu's legitimate daughter before. Speaking of Master Lu, she was also unlucky to be implicated." As he spoke, the boy looked around, then reached out and patted his mouth.

Speaking of this, Miss Lu is also a well-educated and wonderful person. She has a good temper, not to mention her appearance.

Recently, many dignitaries came to buy her, but she stubbornly refused. In the end, she would rather be branded a slave than become a plaything in the backyard of her father's former classmate.

Before the boy finished speaking, Lu Qingqing slowly walked up to the girl: "Will you come with me?"

The girl looked at Lu Qingqing, her eyes flashed slightly, and then she respectfully said, "Sin slave has met the Lord of Anning County."

"You know me?" Lu Qingqing was so surprised that she had never seen this Miss Lu before.

"Well, I've seen it before at a palace banquet..."

Seeing Miss Lu responding to her words in a neither humble nor condescending manner, Lu Qingqing asked again if she was willing to follow her.

"The sin slave has nothing to offer, so he can only do embroidery. If Anning County doesn't mind, the sin slave is willing to leave with the county master."

Lu Qingqing's lips curled up and asked her to step out first, and finally selected five or six that she was satisfied with.

When she was about to pay the money, Miss Na Lu stepped forward and knelt down in front of Lu Qingqing, and kowtowed three times. Blood seeped out of her already disfigured forehead.

"Please ask Anning County Master if you can buy the sin slave's sister together."

Lu Qingqing turned to look at her. Seeing the blood stains flowing down her forehead and onto her cheeks, she frowned slightly.

"Where is your sister?"

The boy next to her didn't wait for her reply, and immediately took over: "To tell you the truth, Miss Lu Er was attracted by Mr. Fu Ge from Beijing because of her good looks and... she was a young girl. She wanted to Take it back to the mansion."

When Lu Qingqing heard his words, she looked at Ziyao next to her. They both saw a trace of disgust in each other's eyes, and then ordered the servant to bring him to her for a look.

"This...this is not good."

Ziyao took a step forward and asked the boy coldly: "What's wrong? You sold it to my master and bought it. Is there anything against the rules? Or is it that the money my master paid is not high enough?"

When the boy heard Ziyao's words, he quickly waved his hands and explained that she didn't mean what she said. He had just promised Mr. Fu Ge before and was afraid it would be difficult to explain.

"Is there anything difficult to explain? Isn't Mr. Ge too shameless? Aren't you afraid that others will tell the Emperor that he likes to play with young girls?"

After careful consideration, the boy agreed to bring him.

Miss Lu thanked Lu Qingqing profusely. She looked at Ziyao beside her, and Ziyao took two steps forward and shouted.

After a while, a servant came in with a girl in a thin green cotton robe. The girl looked trembling and looked around with a pair of frightened eyes.

The servants behind her pushed her into the courtyard.

"Hurry up and go, the noble man is still waiting."

Miss Lu looked towards the entrance of the courtyard. When she saw clearly that it was her sister, she didn't care much, stood up quickly and rushed towards the girl.

"Huan'er! How are you? Woohoo..."

"Sister...sister? Huan'er finally sees you, wuwu... Huan'er is scared."

The two sisters hugged each other and cried bitterly.

Ziyao returned to her master and asked in a low voice, do you really want to accept this girl?

At this moment, Miss Lu was still calm. She pushed her sister away from her arms and pulled her to kneel down in front of Lu Qingqing.

"I beg Anning County Lord to buy the guilty slave and my sister together, otherwise my sister's fate would be worse than being hanged with a piece of white silk."

Lu Qingqing's eyes became sharp, and she asked Miss Lu why she wanted to help her, and what benefits could her sister bring her?

Miss Lu froze. She didn't expect Lu Qingqing to ask such a question, and she didn't know how to answer.

I saw her younger sister, who was actually quite smart, kowtowing to her: "Sin slaves can do anything, and those who don't know how to do it will work hard to learn. I beg the county master to accept this slave. I don't want to be separated from my sister." ... I only have my sister as my only relative.”

When Miss Lu next to her heard her sister's words, tears fell heavily from her eyes, and she hugged her sister who was lying on the ground tightly with her hands.

"Can you do whatever I ask you to do?" Lu Qingqing said with a slight smile in her tone.

When the girl heard her words, she lowered her head and continued to kowtow, and finally said firmly that she would do whatever her master ordered her to do.

Even if you sacrifice your life!

Lu Qingqing laughed "haha", reached out and patted her palms, and told the boy beside her that she would also accept this person.

"Let's count the money together."

"This...this girl..."

Before the boy could finish what he said, the girl picked up a sharp stone on the ground and was about to scratch her face.

"If you don't agree, then I'll scratch my face and see who is willing to pay for it."

"Huan'er!"

The young man was frightened when he saw this. He didn't expect that the women from the Lu family were so strong, so he could only grit his teeth and report a price to Lu Qingqing.

"Young lady, noble lady, you also know that the price is certainly not cheap."

"Ah! Don't Huan'er!"

When the boy looked over, he saw that the girl had a deep scar sliding down her cheek, and blood immediately spurted out.
