LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 59 The Huang brothers sold themselves into slavery
Yuan Chuyi didn't know that during her trip to the border, although she could bring home a variety of new crop seeds, she didn't expect that she would actually "marry" herself during this trip.
Just when Xiao Jing asked He Yutang to help write the marriage letter, she had just returned home from the border and was now busy having people move things into the house and put them away.
Seeing the seeds she exchanged from the mall being carried into the house and stacked by Zhou Dayong and others, she couldn't help but smile on her face. She could finally feel relieved! Unexpectedly, Master Zhang arrived at this time, followed by Huang Daqiang and Huang Erzhuang.
When Yuanchu thought about what Huang Yang said that day, she really didn't want to see the Huang family again. However, Mr. Zhang said that these two people were pestering him and insisted that he bring them to see him. She had no choice but to sit down at the stone table in the yard. The two Huang brothers knelt down in front of her, kowtowed to her, and thanked her for saving her life.
"Ms. Yuan, we were the bastards in the past. We did things improperly and caused trouble for you. We know we were wrong. Please forgive us!" The two brothers cried bitterly!
Yuan Chuyi raised his eyelids to look at them and said softly: "Whether you know your mistakes or not has nothing to do with me. My forgiveness or not is irrelevant to you, right? As long as you don't hang around in front of me and don't cause trouble for me! We should still stay within the same boundaries as before and go our own way!"
"Ms. Yuan, we brothers have decided that we can't repay your life-saving grace..."
Yuan Chu quickly stopped them from continuing, "Don't make any mistake, it is Mr. Zhang who saved you. I did the diagnosis for his sake. Otherwise, I would not have saved you!"
"Anyway, you saved our lives. We two brothers have thought about it. From now on, we will voluntarily sell ourselves to you as slaves and let you do whatever you want!" The two of them took out two pieces of paper and presented them to Yuan Chuyi, "Deed of Sale." We have asked the village chief to write it down, and we also ask Mrs. Yuan to accept us!"
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he took the paper and saw that it was really a contract of sale! I also pressed two red seals! She quickly pulled Mr. Zhang aside and asked what was going on.
It turned out that a few years ago, Mrs. Huang Yang saw that her children were getting older, and she didn't know what was wrong, so she went to someone to borrow some money and asked a matchmaker to marry her children. Unexpectedly, the matchmaker told their family that they would marry each other. There were girls from about twenty families, and when people heard that no one from their family was willing to come, all the money spent was wasted.
Huang Yang was very anxious when she saw that there was not much borrowed money left. When she saw how much money she could make by making dried radishes on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, she thought, why not just make radishes? Who doesn't know how to pickle them? So she spent the money. Go to the market to sell radishes and come back to pickle dried radishes. Unexpectedly, she bought the radishes at the wrong time. At that time, the radishes on the market had already sold for three cents per catty. She bought a full cart and spent all the remaining money she borrowed.
She thought that after selling the dried radish, she would have money to pay off the debt. But she didn't expect that all the dried radishes she pickled became moldy, and no one took the pickled jars to the market. On the other hand, Lin Yuniang, who has been importing dried radish to sell since the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, the supply in her stall exceeds the demand every day. This made Huang Yang very angry!
A few days ago, the money she borrowed came due, and the creditor came to ask her to pay back the money. She couldn't get a penny out of her family, but the debtor was pressing hard, and she only had to sell an acre of land at home. Return the money to people. As of now, their family only has one acre of land left.
Huang Daqiang and Huang Erzhuang knew that Huang Sanfu was the only one in their family who was good, so they wanted to leave the land to Huang Sanfu so that they could make a living outside. But they were penniless and had injuries on their bodies. Where could they go, so they thought of the first day of the Yuan Dynasty.
Mr. Zhang said that their lives were saved on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty. The consultation fee and medical expenses would only cost more than ten taels of silver in an ordinary hospital! If Mrs. Yuan gave them good medicine, the medicine would be even more expensive!
The two brothers felt that they had no money to pay for medical expenses, and there was no land for them to plant crops at home, so they had nothing to eat. On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, her family has a big business and there must be a shortage of workers at home, so why not work at her house to pay off the debt? In this way, you will have food and shelter, and you no longer have to worry about medical expenses!
But if they come to work for her, she will definitely not accept them! The two brothers worked together and decided to sell themselves to her as slaves!
So the two brothers found the village chief and asked him to help write a deed of sale!
"Ms. Yuan, these two children are sincerely repentant and want to live a good life. If you are still short of people, why not just keep them!" Mr. Zhang also interceded on behalf of these two people.
It was certain that the Yuanchu family was short of people to work, but when she thought of their mother Huang Yang, she frowned.
"Huang Daqiang, Huang Erzhuang, you are going to sell yourself to my Yuan family as slaves. Does your mother know? If I really accept you, she will come to trouble me every day!"
Huang Daqiang hurriedly shook his head, "Ms. Yuan, this can't be done. We have already told her, and the village chief has also told her. She doesn't dare to make trouble about this!"
Yuan Chu thought for a while and finally nodded, "Okay, in addition to paying for the medical expenses, I will also give you five taels of silver to go back to your mother. From now on, you two brothers will be the servants of my Yuan family. I send you, if you disobey or commit crimes, I will kill you or sell you, and I will have nothing to do with the Huang family!"
"Yes! Thank you Madam Yuan!" The two kowtowed to Yuan Chuyi happily.
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he gave them money and asked them to go back and explain clearly to their families and then come over to listen and send them!
The two of them did not expect that Yuan Chuyi actually gave them five taels of silver. After taking the silver, they kowtowed again, then quickly went home and handed the silver to Huang Sanfu, so that Huang Sanfu could live a good life. When Huang Yang saw that they didn't even give the money to him, he immediately started rolling around and crying so much that the whole village heard it. But none of her three sons paid attention to her.
Huang Sigui rolled his eyes, took the silver that Huang Sanfu had no time to collect, and said, "Eldest brother, second brother, since we got the silver, why don't we take the silver and go outside? What are we going to do in this poor village? Madam Yuan is just a little girl, what can she do to us!"
Before Huang Sigui finished speaking, a dagger suddenly flew in from the house, grazed the cheeks of the brothers and then nailed it into the pillar of the house. A cold voice came from outside the house, "You might as well try to escape!"
The four Huang brothers looked around and saw a handsome young man dressed in black who had appeared on their courtyard wall at some point. He was looking at them leisurely with a dog in his mouth. Tail grass! Huang Daqiang and Huang Erzhuang were so frightened that they hurriedly bowed and saluted, "My brother was just joking. We will go back and report to Mrs. Yuan right now."
The two brothers took the money from Huang Sigui and handed it to Huang Sanfu. They told him to live a good life, and then went out to the village. Huang Sigui felt as if someone was passing by in front of him. When he looked again, the dagger on the pillar was gone, and the little brother on the courtyard wall was also gone. He was so shocked that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
