Daming female local tyrant

Sure enough, Mother Chen received the good news from Steward Fan. Lin Gensheng and his wife agreed to sell their daughter to the Shen family as a maid, and signed a contract of sale with the Shen family's aunt, in exchange for the Shen family's letting go of Ah Shan and Ah Hu who stole rice.

She happily went upstairs to report to Shen Wan. Shen Wan nodded and said that Mother Chen and Steward Fan had done a good job.

Then, she let An Dong go down with her private seal, and signed Lin Jinglan's contract of sale with Lin Gensheng and his wife.After signing the deed, the two children locked in the stable were released.An Dong agreed and took her private seal.

Shen Wan suddenly thought that it would be better for Jing Lan to know about this matter. Besides, after signing the body contract, she will leave the Lin family, and it is best to let her go down to see her parents.

"An Chun, go to the next door and open the door, and take that girl from the Lin family to meet her parents. When her parents sign a contract with An Dong, bring her back to see me."

"Yes, girl."

An Chun was also puzzled that her master wanted to buy that savage country girl next door, but it didn't prevent her from following Shen Wan's orders.

She walked to the next room, took out the key and opened the door, and went in with two little maids, so that Jing Lan, who was lying on the inner bed still aggrieved, got up and went down to meet people.

Of course Jing Lan wanted to ask who to see.

An Chun glanced at her coldly, and said, "You'll know when you go down. Also, don't think about running away. Don't forget that the two thieves are still in our hands. If you dare to run away, they will suffer." gone."

After finishing speaking, she turned around and left, and the two little maids followed after Jing Lan followed her.

Jing Lan walked all the way to guess whether her parents came, and then negotiated with Shen's family and reached an agreement, so this big maid took her down.Is it possible that I can go home in a while?

Although it's only been half a year, Jing Lan has already adapted to the life of the original owner. Although she can't say that she has deep feelings for the original owner's family, she feels that they are always better than those strangers outside.Besides, the body she occupies is only 13 years old, and she, a time traveler, was just a freshman before wearing it. Apart from knowledge, she doesn't have much social experience in her head.The combination of the two determines that she can't go anywhere except staying at Lin's house at this stage.In other words, staying at the Lin family, after adapting to the life of the original owner, observing and learning how to survive in this era, and even survive better is her best choice.

Thinking of going home in a while, Jing Lan will inevitably be secretly happy.

But she was not a child, and while she was happy, she thought that if the Shen family really let her, Ah Shan, and Ah Hu go back, it would be because the parents had satisfied the Shen family's excessive demands, and the Shen family would release them, such as paying two thousand catties of rice.

With so much rice, it is impossible to make money if you don’t sell the land. For farmers, the land is the foundation of the family’s livelihood, and no one will sell the land unless it is a last resort.The Lin family originally only had four acres of paddy fields and three acres of mulberry fields.In good years, the harvested grain can still be eaten after paying the government's taxes, while the mulberry leaves produced in the mulberry field are used to raise silkworms, and the money after selling the silkworm cocoons is used to meet the daily expenses of the family.In a year of good weather, the income of the Lin family is just enough to cover food and clothing expenses, with a slight surplus.But in a calamity year, life is very tight, just like this year.Now that they have to sell the land to compensate the Shen family who blackmailed them, isn't it worse?

Thinking of this, Jing Lan's mood became bad, and even she would have the urge to slap Ah Shan twice.

Complicated, she followed An Chun and the others downstairs, and walked to the vacant room where her parents and the Geng family couple next door were waiting. Jing Lan saw them, as well as Steward Fan, Mother Chen, and another person in front of Shen Wan. The eldest maid named An Dong.

As soon as Mrs. Xie saw her daughter, she walked towards her, but An Chun commanded two little maids to stop her, and said that she could talk to her daughter only after signing Jinglan's contract of selling herself with the Shen family.

Jing Lan's ears were sharp, and when she heard something about the contract of sale, she quickly looked at An Chun and asked her what she meant, what was the contract of sale.

An Chun turned to look at her, curled her lips, and said: "Our girl is kind enough to accept you as a servant of the Shen family, so that your family doesn't have to raise money to buy rice to return to the Shen family. Not only that, the two thieves Mi's boy doesn't have to be sent to the yamen for punishment..."

Before An Chun could finish speaking, Jing Lan had already shouted angrily: "I won't be a maid! I won't be a slave!"

She yelled and looked at her parents, emphasizing again that she was unwilling to sell herself as a slave, and she did not want to enter Shen's house as a maid.

Jing Lan looked so angry and agitated that Mother Chen hurriedly called two strong maids to come in and hold her back, fearing that she would run out if she started a fuss, or cry and make a fuss and do something irrational.

Seeing her daughter like this, Mrs. Xie just cried, and Lin Gensheng's eyebrows were also knit together.

Mother Chen was upset when she saw this, she looked at Lin Gensheng and his wife and said, "Don't keep talking, you two boring gourds, who is in charge of your family? Your daughter doesn't want to sell herself to be a maid in Shen's house, so you have the same idea as her? If a I mean, you go back now, Steward Fan will send the thieves who came to steal rice today to the yamen for punishment overnight!"

Lin Gensheng hurriedly said: "No, no, we will sign Alan's body contract right now. I am her father, and I have the final say in this family."

Chen's mother took a look at Lin Gensheng, pointed him to the square table where Steward Fan and An Dong were sitting, and signed Jing Lan's deed of prostitution.

Lin Gensheng bowed in response, and walked towards the square table.

Seeing this, Jing Lan struggled and shouted resolutely: "No, I don't want to be a slave, father, mother, I don't want to be a slave! If you sign my contract of prostitution with the Shen family, just wait for the body to be collected!"

She is a time traveler from modern times, and she cannot accept such things as selling herself as a slave in her bones.She felt that the life of a poor farmer in this countryside was already bad, and she would sell herself as a slave, lose her freedom, and become a slave. If so, she really might as well die.

Jing Lan's resolute words still frightened Lin Gensheng and Mrs. Xie, especially Mrs. Xie. After Jing Lan yelled such words, she ran to grab Lin Gensheng and cried, "My baby, listen, Alan said... ...said that if you signed her deed, she would..."

Lin Gensheng's thumb had already pressed the ink pad, and he was about to press it on the deed of sale written by Steward Fan. Now he heard Jing Lan's cry and was pulled by Mrs. Xie again, so he hesitated.

Geng Shi and his wife saw that Lin Gensheng hesitated, but they raised their hearts, fearing that the two of them would hesitate and miss the opportunity to let the son of the two families get away.

Heartbroken, Chai walked towards Jing Lan, knelt down two or three steps away from her, kowtowed to her and begged with tears, asking Jing Lan to think about Ah Shan and Ah Hu.If she refuses to work as a servant girl in Shen's house, then Ah Shan and Ah Hu will be sent to the city's yamen for punishment, and they will be rode at that time, maybe they will die.Because the members of the Shen family said that their family was not short of food and did not need the Lin family and the Geng family to compensate for food, so the only way to save Ah Shan and Ah Hu was Jing Lan becoming a slave to the Shen family.

Xie saw Chai knelt down to plead with his daughter, left her husband and ran over to pull Chai up, saying that her daughter couldn't stand Chai's doing so.Saying so, she cried and looked at Jing Lan again, with a sad look on her face.

When Jing Lan saw the two women who looked at her crying sadly, she felt uncomfortable, and her heart of vowing not to be a slave was also shaken at first.

She quickly thought that if she really refused to be a slave in the Shen family, her younger brother Ah Shan and brother Ah Hu next door would be sent to the city's yamen to be subjected to canes. It is possible to die from serious injuries.If something like that really happened, even if she, the elder sister, went back safely, she might not be able to stand the strange eyes of her family, the Geng family, and the villagers, as well as all kinds of discussions.And if someone really died, she would regret it for the rest of her life.

Of course, sacrificing herself in exchange for Ah Shan and Ah Hu returning home safely, she felt that she was too holy and she was not willing to sacrifice herself.

what to do?She was in a dilemma and thought for a long time.

The harm between the two powers is the lesser, after some comparisons, she finally thinks that it is easier for her to enter the Shen family as a slave than a dead person, but she is really reluctant to jump into the fire pit and become a maid like this .

Just when Jing Lan was deliberating over and over and unable to make a decision, Steward Fan started urging her again, and Mrs. Chai knelt down towards Jing Lan again, saying pleading words incessantly.

"Hey..." In the end, Jing Lan let out a long sigh and asked Chai to get up, and she agreed to become a slave in the Shen family.

After saying this, she was very sad and wept in pain.

When Chai heard this, his face lit up, and he hurriedly expressed his thanks, while Xie was startled, then sad, and wept silently.

Seeing that Jing Lan agreed, she also breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want to ruin the errands assigned by her aunt.

She asked the two strong servants to escort Jing Lan to the square table, and asked her to put her fingerprints on the body deed.Jing Lan poked her head to look at the body deed on the table, which said her net worth was 12 taels of silver. As for Jing Lan's number of years as a slave, she would be Shen Wan's slave forever.

Seeing Jing Lan carefully reading the contract for buying a slave, Steward Fan couldn't help but curiously asked Jing Lan if she could read, and if she knew what was written on it.

Jing Lan heard the words and realized that if she showed that she could read, people would be suspicious, so she said that she was illiterate, and asked Steward Fan to read the adoption document and explain to herself what it meant by the way.

Steward Fan picked up the adoption document and read it like a show off. When Jing Lan heard him read that he would be Shen Wan's slave forever, she deliberately asked, why did she write such a sentence on purpose.

"Oh, to be a servant of so-and-so forever means to be a slave for a lifetime, which is a death contract. There are also five years, eight years, and ten years, that is a living contract." Fan Butler explained.

After hearing this, Jing Lan immediately said: "I want to sign a deed of living with the Shen family. If you don't want to lose money after buying me, then promise me to sign a deed of living!"
