Zhang Sanni looked up, her voice was trembling because the mother of Li Zheng was there, “Yes, yes.”

 

Zhou Wang Shi liked straightforward girls. Watching someone hesitating and stammering was annoying, and she couldn’t be bothered to look at her for another moment. Anyway, she would eventually find out why the Zhang family’s child had come. It was better to go home sooner. The old man was waiting. “If you have something to say, I’ll be heading home.”

 

Zhulan, “Auntie, walk slowly.”

 

“Go back to the house!”

 

“Yes. “

 

Zhang Sanni saw that xiùcái niángzi1 really turned around and wanted to go back to the house. She was anxious and ran forward to stop her, “I, I.”

 

Zhulan had never come into contact with Zhang Dati’s children, but she had heard a lot that Zhang Dati could sell his daughter. It could be seen at first glance that the girl was worth something, she didn’t look thin, and she had never been hungry. This girl was thirteen and had grown up. Not to mention that the children of Zhang Datie’s family were all good-looking, and Zhang Datie won’t let her work hard and her skin is white to cover up all her ugliness. The intention of Zhang Dati and his wife was too obvious, this was the girl who was going to be sold.

 

Zhulan didn’t feel any emotion in her heart. Even if as a woman she felt sorry for her, she couldn’t sympathize with her. Rong Chuan didn’t get any help from the Zhang family. The girl in front of her had never secretly given Rong Chuan food. It showed that she was cruel. You guessed it. What this girl wanted to say, she refused, “Girl, what do you want to ask for? I can’t help you, go back!”

 

Zhang Sanni had tears in her eyes, “Please help me, I don’t want to be sold.”

 

The people of the Zhou family had soft hearts; they were willing to take in even those on the brink of death, let alone someone like her who was in good health. She had always believed that as long as she was obedient, her parents wouldn’t sell her. However, to her surprise, her parents still decided to sell her, and they had even found a buyer willing to pay a high price—twenty taels of silver. It must be a bad place.

 

Zhulan’s face remained indifferent. She knew well whom to show compassion to and whom to extend a helping hand to. This child was indeed pitiable, but there was nothing she could do to help. Besides, she didn’t believe she could make a difference. Buying this girl was not allowed. According to the legal code, only those with the status of a jǔrén or higher were permitted to use servants. Otherwise, there could be fines or even imprisonment. Bringing the girl back to raise was not a feasible option either.

 

Help pay the money? She wasn’t foolish enough to get entangled in this matter. Once involved, it would be hard to shake off, and she couldn’t set this precedent. There were too many unfortunate people in the village, and it would lead to endless troubles. She wouldn’t be staying in Zhouji village for much longer, and she didn’t want to complicate things for herself. She just wanted to follow her own preferences.

 

“Girl, the person you should seek help from is your parents. I can’t assist you. Hurry back home!”

 

Zhang Sanni had always been cautious and pleased her parents at all times. She was the best at reading people’s faces. When she saw the eyes of xiùcái niángzi were looking bored, she knew she wouldn’t help, so she said anxiously: “You can help Rong Chuan, provide for him to go to school, provide him with food and drink, why don’t you help me, I can help with the work, please help me.”

 

Zhulan looked directly into the little girl’s eyes, “We can help whoever we are willing to help. You can go back!”

 

The girl’s eyes were full of jealousy, but she didn’t say that she wished Rong Chuan was dead. She guessed that when Zhang Datie and his wife came back, they only had one son, Rong Chuan. Naturally, the baby was rare. It was normal for the little girl to be jealous. Later, Rong Chuan was abandoned. The little girl ignored Rong Chuan’s struggle and lived. It should be said that she was indeed Zhang Datie’s child. Cruel-hearted.

 

Zhang Sanni didn’t want to leave. Li, who had heard the commotion, came out and listened for a while. She didn’t like this girl and was even more unwilling to see her clinging to her mother-in-law. It was time for her to step in. Holding a broom, she said, “You still have the nerve to bring up Rong Chuan? If his elder sister had protected him a bit, he wouldn’t have almost died. If you don’t leave, should I throw you out? Hurry up and go, don’t dirty my place.”

 

While Zhulan felt satisfied with the situation, she couldn’t help but feel helpless about Li Shi’s mouth. That mouth was truly spiteful.

 

Zhang Sanni also pretended, biting the corner of her mouth and going out. Just as Zhulan was about to take a step, the door next door opened. Wang Ru leaned against the door and said, “Look at what a pitiful little sister, the Zhou family is cold-blooded. I pity you.”

 

Zhulan, ” .”

 

When Li Shi saw Wang Ru leaving with Zhang Sanni, she said blankly: “Isn’t Wang Ru stupid? This girl is obviously not a good girl. Isn’t she bringing trouble to the family? Zhang Datie’s family is not easy to deal with!”

 

Zhulan smiled, and couldn’t help but pinched Li Shi’s fat face, “Close the door and go back to the house.”

 

Li Shi touched her face stupidly. Oops, my mother pinched her face, the head of the house also likes to pinch her face, the head of the house said he pinched it because he likes her, and so mother liked her too!
