Shen Xing knew that his sister was particularly concerned about the fact that she couldn't speak and had a scar on her face, so every time a guest wanted to see what the scar looked like on her face, she would tremble with fear, which made people feel impatient for no reason.

But Shen Xing really couldn't say anything to blame his sister. Not to mention that this scar was left by his sister when she was young to save him, how could a little girl not be afraid? How could she not be sad? How could Shen Xing not understand?

But this time was different. He could judge people very accurately. No matter the young lady sitting in front of him or the lady and young master sitting beside him, they should be easy to talk to. Moreover, Han Dong's behavior did not cause any reaction from the young lady in front of him. She even looked a little annoyed. It can be seen that this young lady is not easy to fool. She is not the kind of person who can be deceived by just a few words from anyone.

Shen Xing was really tempted by such a host, but he was afraid that if he missed this opportunity, he would never have the chance to have such a chance again.

So this time, Manager Lin didn't even need to say anything, Shen Xing had already started coaxing Shen Lu to raise her head.

"Sister, this is a rare opportunity to meet a good family. If you miss it, you may never meet another one again. Raise your head. If the host is satisfied, you and your brother can leave here today." Shen Xing lowered his voice to coax his sister.

How could a place like a pawnshop be a good place to stay? He was able to work, ate little, didn't cause trouble, and was obedient, so he was rarely beaten or scolded. But even so, how could he know how much his sister had suffered?

If they couldn’t sell it, my sister, who was timid by nature, was afraid that she would not have enough food to eat or warm clothes to wear and would be bullied.

If other girls were bullied, they could talk to Manager Lin. After all, they would be sold, and if they had injuries on their bodies or faces, it would affect the price. But someone like Shen Lu was destined to be a money-losing commodity. Who would care even if she was bullied?

This is a pawnshop, not a government office where justice is enforced!

So Shen Xing really hopes to take his sister away from here today.

"Sister, Lu'er, don't be afraid. Look up and show the master a look."

Shen Xing reached out and pinched Shen Lu's arm. The force was not too light or too heavy, so it would not hurt Shen Lu, but it was enough to give Shen Lu the courage to raise her head.

Shen Lu kept cheering himself up in his heart, just hold his head up, it doesn't matter whether the master family likes him or not, as long as he holds his head up, he will not be a drag on his brother!

Be sure to hold your head up!

Thinking of this, Shen Lu really plucked up the courage and raised her head. Although she was still very scared and her body was shaking, this time it was enough for Li Mingxia to see her face clearly.

If being unable to speak is considered a defect of the girl in front of him, then this scar is actually nothing in Li Mingxia's eyes.

There is just a scar about five centimeters long on the left forehead of my face. Because it was not treated properly, it looks a little dark in color. However, if you use scar removal medicine to treat it carefully and then apply a layer of powder, you can't see anything at all.

In Li Mingxia's opinion, telling the truth is not a disadvantage.

After his sister raised her head, Shen Xing kept watching Li Mingxia's reaction, fearing that he would see Li Mingxia's dissatisfied look. Fortunately, Li Mingxia did not have any special emotions, not even the slightest surprise. After looking at the scar on his sister's face for a few seconds, he looked away.

"What can your sister do?" Li Mingxia asked Shen Xing.

"Embroidery. My sister is very good at embroidery. She can also cook and wash clothes. As long as it is housework, my sister can do it." Shen Xing said immediately.

Manager Lin narrowed his eyes after hearing what Shen Xing said. He knew that Shen Lu was a skilled worker, but how come he didn't know that Shen Lu could also embroider? If he knew that Shen Lu could embroider, wouldn't he have found a way to sell it to her long ago? Could he have delayed it until now?

Many embroidery shops in the capital have their own embroiderers. For someone like Shen Lu who is dumb and loyal, it is easy for her to sell the embroidered items if they are absolutely excellent.

Anyway, they only need to embroider in the room every day, and they don't need to see people or talk. What does it matter what they look like or whether they can talk? As for other things, there is no need to worry. Under normal circumstances, these embroiderers will not live to be 30 years old. They work day and night. Before their bodies are completely broken, their eyes are already blind.

But such people can be sold at a very good price!

I think Shen Xing also knew about this, so he concealed the fact that his sister could embroider.

Thinking of this, Manager Lin looked at Shen Xing with an even more unfriendly gaze.

"What I want is a death contract. Do you and your sister have any objection?" Li Mingxia was quite satisfied with Shen Xing and Shen Lu, so he said immediately.

When Shen Xing heard Li Mingxia ask this, he knew that she was satisfied with him and his sister!

Very good!

Shen Xing finally let go of the worry in his heart. He really didn't want to miss out on Li Mingxia, the host. Otherwise, he would never tell anyone that his sister could embroider. If Li Mingxia didn't buy them, after today, in order to save his sister, Shen Xing would have to take out the last valuable thing on him. But that was an ancestral jade pendant in the family. Shen Xing had never thought of selling it when he had no food to eat, but when the critical moment came, Shen Xing would never give up his sister just because he couldn't bear to part with the jade pendant!

Fortunately, I didn’t see it wrong, nor did I make a wrong bet!

"No problem! My sister and I can sign the death contract!" Shen Xing said immediately.

"Okay, then it's these two siblings, and then there's Wang Hu, Zhang Liang, and Manager Lin. Call the maids and old women in and I'll choose one." Li Mingxia nodded and decided on these four people.

Manager Lin gritted his teeth, agreed, and called in the maids and servants who were waiting outside.

After a long selection, Li Mingxia and Zhang jointly decided to pick two maids and two old women.

The two old women were named Ma and Sun, both of them were strong and could do all kinds of heavy work. The two maids looked honest and capable, and they were generous in their words and deeds, not the kind of people who thought too much. All in all, Li Mingxia and Zhang were very satisfied.

Just when everyone thought that they had bought these people, Li Mingxia turned around and said to Manager Lin, "Do you have any teenagers here who look about the same age as my brother and are smart?"

As soon as Manager Lin heard this, he knew that Li Mingxia wanted to pick a personal companion for his younger brother!
