It's not scary to travel through a book, you can change your fate as a cannon fodder by yoursel

"Don't worry, I'll keep all the good stuff for you. When you pass the Autumn Examination, they'll all be gifts for you."

"How can that be? You are so stingy. These toys are not enough as gifts."

"I'm stingy? Do you know how much this box of toys can sell for? Over a hundred taels, brother! You are a playboy who has no idea of ​​the sufferings of the world!"

Over a hundred taels, are things for children so expensive? Since the things were already given to him, he would not be cheated on this. Ouyang Hua selectively ignored the word "dandy" and immediately gave Weng Xiaoxiao a bright smile.

Fearing that he would be robbed, he climbed onto the carriage holding the box.

"I appreciate your kindness, brother. Thank you very much. Take care." The gentle and elegant Tian Runze clasped his fists and saluted.

"Good brother, don't talk about this. Just don't let it affect your studies."

Tian Runze smiled and shook his head. What was a little hardship if he could earn money? Many poor scholars were copying books outside to earn money. He didn't dare to do this job just for the sake of his family's reputation. He would only suffer if he insisted on saving face. He should be more down-to-earth.

Look at Weng Xiao's life now. He has no money to support so many servants? Even Ouyang County Magistrate praised him highly. Who would look down on him just because he does business?

After the car drove away, Feng Gu came over and asked, "Aren't you going to tell them your identity?"

Weng Xiaoxiao shook her head. She didn't want to get involved. If she revealed her identity, given the gender difference, their friendship would be ruined, just like Lu Yaowen in the past.

From the time we first met to the time I interacted with them, it was purely because we got along well and there was no interest involved.

Even though she later made friends with Ouyang Zhen because of Ouyang Hua, it was only a stepping stone. It was not enough to just rely on the title of Ouyang Hua's friend. She paid with real money. In view of her special status, her relationship with Ouyang Zhen was just superficial and there was no personal friendship between them.

They are busy with their studies now and can only see each other two or three times a year, so let's just let it go.

Apart from not revealing her identity, she did not do anything to let her friend down.

Weng Xiaoxiao was a very opinionated person. She had her own plans, and it was not a very important matter, so Aunt Feng just reminded her and did not give her much advice.

......

Weng Xiaoxiao wanted to go to the farm on the twelfth day to meet with the drivers and listen to their opinions. Of course, she couldn't go empty-handed, so she wanted to discuss with Qiuyue what to prepare.

"Qiuyue, Qiuyue?"

"Master, Qiuyue went to the shop and hasn't come back yet."

"It's already this late, and she hasn't come back yet. Is she alone?"

"No, Brother Shunsui followed."

Qiuyue had to visit several shops every day, and it was impossible for her to wait until all the shops were closed before going there. If she did, the bank would have closed long ago. So, she started from the farthest shop every day and collected money all the way. When she arrived at the bank, she would just handle the last transaction. This was also what Manager He had specifically told her, that she would wait for them even if it was late.

With Shunsui following her, Weng Xiaoxiao no longer worried about her safety.

But when it was time for dinner, the two had not returned yet, and Feng Gu could no longer sit still.

Weng Xiaoxiao was just about to ask Pei Jun to arrange people to go out and look for her when she heard a noise outside the door.

Qiuyue's hair was disheveled and her face was covered with tears. Shunsui, who was dressed in a cold and stern manner, was not much better, his clothes were torn apart. At the back was a middle-aged couple who were timid and hesitant.

After entering the house, Qiuyue was no longer afraid. She ran to Weng Xiaoxiao and knelt down directly, "Master, please help me. I will not go back to marry."

Are those Qiuyue’s parents?

"Get up first and stand behind me."

Chunxia was very tactful. She went into the room and brought a chair for Weng Xiaoxiao. How could she let her master stand while talking when dealing with such a matter?

Weng Xiaoxiao sat down calmly and asked with a serious face: "Who are you?"

Seeing that the boss was a handsome scholar, Qiuyue's father plucked up his courage and bowed, "Hello, boss. I am Erya's father. She is old enough to get married. We have found a good match for her. I would like to ask for your grace to let her go back."

"I didn't see your attitude of begging for help, but I saw my people being beaten to a pulp by you. If there were no guards following you today, would you have planned to kidnap the people directly?"

"I dare not, I dare not." Qiuyue's father shrank back.

"The Erya you are talking about is my maid Qiuyue. She has signed a death contract. She has already been sold, and you still want to marry her off?"

"We sold her for ten taels of silver in order to redeem her."

Weng Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sneer twice, "You want to redeem it, so I have to sell it?"

"Do you want to occupy my daughter?" Qiuyue's mother screamed.

"You signed the contract to sell me. You took the money and kept me. The government has recognized this. Why do you want to accuse me of usurping my power?"

Being in charge of so many subordinates, Weng Xiaoxiao's power naturally increased day by day, and the scholar's glare was also very scary.

The man said quickly, "We said the wrong thing, please forgive us. We have inquired about it, and you are a kind-hearted boss. You will not embarrass us ordinary people. Please be kind and give Qiuyue a way out."

After he finished speaking, he knelt down and kowtowed, making loud kowtow sounds.

If Qiuyue was willing to go back, she would release her without asking for the indenture money, but it was obvious that Qiuyue was unwilling to do so.

After hearing Qiuyue talk about her family's situation, she is the "money-loser" who is neither loved by her father nor her mother. Would such parents really make good plans for their daughter?

Weng Xiaoxiao didn't believe it.

She guessed that the betrothal money this time was probably higher, and she wanted to sell Qiuyue again to make some money.

Weng Xiaoxiao looked coldly at the man who was still kowtowing, "Get up, don't try to threaten me with this, I don't want to be a good person."

Pei Jun winked at Li Qiu and Zhong Shan, and the two of them went over and lifted the man up.

"You have nothing to do with my sold daughter. If you dare to kidnap her, I will report her to the authorities. The money from selling my body has supported your family. I have already repaid Qiuyue for her kindness. Go away. If you dare to harass me again, don't blame me for being rude."

Qiuyue's second uncle went to Yangzhou city for business and accidentally saw Erya now. With her demeanor and dress, she looked like a lady from a wealthy family. Her second uncle was shocked but did not dare to recognize her. He went back and told Qiuyue's father.

Qiuyue's father heard that Mr. Wang wanted to marry a girl from a wealthy family as his second wife, and was willing to pay a dowry of fifty taels of silver as long as she looked good.

The fifty taels of silver touched his heart, and he did not consider at all that Mr. Wang was already over fifty years old.

After much deliberation, they finally decided to sneak the person away first. If the boss came after them, they would return the ten taels of indenture money. If no one cared, that would be even better.

But they never expected that a guard's kung fu was so good that the two of them were unable to do anything to him. After being kicked, they almost couldn't get up.

What to do now? !
