After being married off, she was favored by the powerful official

Screams were heard everywhere, and many women covered their eyes out of fear, fearing to see the bloody scene.

But Gu Jin had already noticed the girl's movements and grabbed her by the collar with one hand.

"Madam, please don't bother me. Rather than being sold to a brothel, I would rather die to preserve my innocence!" Although the girl was born weak in character, she was extremely strong-willed, which made her even more pitiable.

"But have you ever thought about what would happen to the owner and manager of the store if you hit your head against the wall and died?"

Girl: "..."

The owner of the antique shop was helped out by the shop assistant, holding his chest with his hands. His face showed the relief of surviving the disaster.

The waiter glared at the girl and started to curse: "You damn plague star, if you want to die, can you find a place where there is no one? If you really die in front of our store today, our place will become a haunted house!

Not to mention that the boss’s shop won’t be sold, we will also be left with nothing!”

The shopkeeper took a deep breath to calm himself down. He didn't speak as harshly as the waiter, but he also said to the girl earnestly, "Girl, I know it's not easy for you, but tell me, it's not easy for ordinary people like us to make money.

My small shop doesn't make much money, and everyone in the shop relies on this little money to make ends meet. If something really happens to you here today, we might have to go down and accompany you soon!"

Although what the shopkeeper said was a bit exaggerated, there is no one who is not superstitious about such things.

Gu Jinsong opened his hand and let the girl stagger back a few steps.

"I didn't rescue you as you wished, and you tried to kill yourself in front of me. If anything happens to you today, I will spray all the people in the city into sieves tomorrow.

So if you are not well, you are going to make me well, right?"

"No, I haven't thought about it that way..." The girl was a little flustered, biting her lip and shaking her head repeatedly.

The people who had just sympathized with the girl also started talking about it.

"Although this girl is pitiful, she does things with some sense of propriety. No wonder this lady is unwilling to take her in."

"Young lady from the official family has been learning to manage the government affairs since she was young. Of course, she can judge people much better than us!"

Gu Jin glanced at the dumbstruck sturdy man and said indifferently: "Are you here to collect debts or to watch the show? I think you are staying more peaceful than anyone else."

The two sturdy men came to their senses after hearing what Gu Jin said. The scarred man grabbed the girl and said fiercely, "Don't play tricks on me. You dare to kill yourself in front of me. If you die, who will give me the money?"

"I don't want to go to a brothel, I don't want to..." The girl cried heartbreakingly and gave Gu Jin a final pleading look.

Gu Jin sighed and said quietly, "As long as you don't go to the brothel, you are willing to do anything, right?"

The girl's eyes suddenly lit up when she saw Gu Jinsong's words, and she used all her strength to break free from the strong man's restraints, "I do!

As long as Madam is willing to buy me, I will be willing to work like a slave for you!"

"How much money does her father owe you?"

The two strong men looked at each other, and Scarface raised his chin and said coldly: "Twenty taels of silver, do you want to pay for her?"

Seeing the girl's hopeful eyes, Gu Jin turned to Xie Ran and said, "Give me twenty taels of silver."

Xie Ran lowered her eyes to glance at the purse on Gu Jin's waist, and curled her lips helplessly. She really didn't want to spend a penny more.

Xie Ran glanced at Mo Yin and said, "Give me the money."

Mo Yin: “…”

There really are two different kinds of people sleeping in the same bed!

Mo Yin took out the silver, and Gu Jin said to the onlookers: "Everyone, please bear witness for me. I have already paid back the silver for this girl. If they dare to regret it in the future, please bear witness for me."

Everyone responded in unison, "Madam, rest assured. If they dare to cause trouble, we are willing to testify on your behalf."

Gu Jin nodded and threw the silver to the two strong men.

The two counted the silver and said to the girl maliciously, "You are lucky this time, someone is willing to spend money to buy you!

Even if the deal doesn't work out, we still have a bond. If you need money in the future, you can always come to us. We are still willing to do business with you."

The two men put the silver and money in their arms and left.

The girl looked at Gu Jin with tears of gratitude, "Madam, you saved my life. From now on, Die'er's life belongs to you!"

Gu Jin looked Die'er up and down. She was a beautiful girl. "Are you really willing to follow me? Will you do anything I ask you to do?"

Die'er nodded repeatedly, and Gu Jin nodded, "Okay, then you follow me."

Die'er wiped the tears from her face and followed the carriage contentedly. Ru felt sorry for her and comforted her, "Our young mistress may have a sharp tongue but a soft heart, but she is actually the kindest and most generous. She is willing to spend money to redeem you and will definitely take you in. If you follow the young mistress, you will never have to suffer again."

Ruyi said this with great confidence, Die'er nodded and smiled.

However, the two of them soon stopped laughing.

Looking at the scene in front of her, Die'er asked in disbelief, "Madam, why did you bring Die'er here?"

Gu Jin tilted his head to look at her, and said in confusion: "You want to be someone's maid, so of course you have to find a human trafficker."

Die’er: “?”

Ruyi retreated guiltily. She hadn't said anything just now.

A low laugh was heard, and Xie Ran couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.

She really is so unexpected every time.

Die'er glanced at Xie Ran, then looked at Gu Jin eagerly and said, "I can be Madam's maid."

"But I don't lack maids!"

After Gu Jin finished speaking, he ignored Die'er and said to the matchmaker, "She wants to find a rich family to be a maid. You name a price."

The matchmaker squinted her eyes and studied Die'er. "She's a little old, but she's still pretty good-looking. Eight taels of silver at most."

Die'er grabbed Gu Jin's clothes and knelt down, "Madam, I am only willing to follow you, even if I don't want to be paid."

Gu Jin said earnestly: "Miss Die'er, you see, I just met you and I paid you twelve taels of silver. What does this mean? It means that our horoscopes are not compatible and we will lose money.

I can tell you from my own experience that you should never get together with the wrong people, otherwise it will only hurt others and yourself, and the loss will outweigh the gain.”

Die'er stared at Gu Jin blankly, as if she couldn't understand why Gu Jin's heart could be so cold and hard.

Seeing that Gu Jin was really going to sell her to the matchmaker, Die'er bit her lip and said, "Madam, I only want to be your maid. If you don't want to take me in, I don't want to serve others either."

"No." Gu Jin smiled, but his eyes shone with coldness. "I spent twenty taels to buy you. You have no right to refuse me."

Gu Jin half squatted down, smiling brightly like a flower. Who would have thought that such a beauty would say such cold words, "Be good and listen, the matchmaker will find a good family for you."
