Do you know the long song of laughter?

Chapter 27 IOU

"A Niu, my eldest aunt beat me so hard, my cousin won't be broken, right?"

Listening to Li Fu's screams outside, Li Ping was a little worried.

"Brother, you didn't see that auntie didn't even try hard."

"Why are you screaming so badly if you don't exert enough effort?"

"They performed it for Grandpa, so don't worry about it. Just go pack your clothes."

Li An felt that Li Ping was a little too honest.

"Why are you packing your clothes?" Li Ping asked doubtfully.

"Didn't Mom tell you? Dad and Mom are doing some business outside and are too busy. You have nothing to do at home. Dad and Mom said they would take you there to help them," Li An said.

"Oh." When Li Ping heard this, he didn't even ask what his business was, and said, "What about this rabbit?"

"give it to me."

In fact, breeding rabbits is also a good business. Rabbits have strong reproductive capabilities. They only need to cut the grass and feed them, which is quite easy to maintain.

Li An stopped his mother because he didn't care about the extra money.

"I…"

Therefore, you can only sell your body to Ren Yazi. Ren Yazi may sell you to a wealthy family as a maid, or you may sell you directly to a brothel.

"Then I'll pack my clothes." Li Ping said and entered the room.

In the end, this matter must be solved by my grandfather getting money. Although my grandfather said he didn't care, it was just an angry word, and it was impossible for him to really ignore it.

"Mom, I refused when Uncle Shi gave it to me. I didn't want him to be angry, so I had to take it." Li An said.

Liu and Li An were both stunned when they heard this.

It seems that the slave status has certain protection in the law, and it is stipulated that the master cannot beat the servant to death without any reason. Even if the servant makes a big mistake, he must first register with the government before he can beat him to death.

However, according to the law, the punishment for a master to beat his servant to death is very light, and if he does too much, he will only be fined a small amount of money.

"If the eldest aunt is not willing, then forget it. However, if the debt is not repaid, if it goes to the government, it will have a big impact on my cousin's participation in the imperial examination in the future." Li An said.

Because the conditions of ordinary people are difficult, they have to help with work since they were young, resulting in rough skin. Hey, brothels will never want such a woman.

Once you become a slave, you have no choice but to live or die.

"Auntie, I can lend you this money, but you have to write an IOU." Li An said.

"Write an IOU?" The eldest aunt was stunned and said, "We are all one family, and I won't default on the debt. I don't need an IOU, right? Besides, I can't read either."

Da Ya doesn't talk much, and her presence at home is not high.

"Yeah!" Daya took the rabbit and held it in her arms.

Li An walked out and saw his mother and aunt quarreling. Li Fu was lying on the ground, looking up at the excitement.

"Mom, I get it. You should stew this rabbit quickly. Let's cook it early in the afternoon. After we eat it, we'll leave and don't get involved in this matter." Li An said.

"mother."

Just as Li An thought, she had no intention of paying back the money, so naturally she didn't want to write an IOU.

He was worried that his eldest aunt would taste the sweetness and resort to this trick again if she was short of money in the future.

Li An looked at the gray rabbit in his hand. Although one of his legs was broken, he was in good spirits.

Daya wiped her tears and lowered her head without speaking.

"Mom, have you noticed it too?" Li An said with a smile.

Mrs. Liu curled her lips and said: "She looks fierce, but when she hits her, she is light and airy. Can't I see it? Don't be careless with me. Remember what I just said."

A prostitute of this age will basically not be sold to a brothel.

Li An took the rabbit and said, "Let mother stew it later. Let's eat and leave early."

"Auntie, wuwu...please...help my big brother."

Perhaps because she has no daughter, Mrs. Liu is not very fond of her aunt's family, but she likes her niece Daya very much.

"You kid, do people want it for you?" Ms. Liu rolled her eyes at him and said, "Hurry up and return it."

The eldest aunt saw that her father-in-law was determined not to care, and Mrs. Liu came out again, so she took the idea of ​​Mrs. Liu again.

Mrs. Liu was silent for a moment after hearing this, and said, "Next time when you come back, Mom will bring you some money, and you can bring a bottle of wine to Goudan's father."

Li An didn't know what to say for a moment. Hearing the quarrel between his mother and his eldest aunt outside, he handed the rabbit to Daya and said, "Take it, I'll go out and take a look. You stay in the house. Don’t go out, you know?”

"Da Ya, get up quickly and tell me if you have anything to do." Ms. Liu quickly pulled Da Ya and said.

Based on his understanding of her eldest aunt, although his eldest aunt is a bit selfish and doesn't like Daya as a daughter, she is not so cruel.

Although slavery was abolished during the Qin Dynasty.

As soon as Ms. Liu took the rabbit from Li An, Daya ran in crying and knelt on the ground with a plop.

Li An finally figured it out. His aunt said she wanted to sell Daya, and she was doing it to show her grandfather.

"Haha, brothers are still settling accounts. My eldest aunt is illiterate, and my cousin is here. He has written so much and is very familiar with it." Li An said.

"Then we can't sell Daya. How old is she?" Ms. Liu said.

"What does it have to do with you if I sell my daughter? How can I pay off my debt if I don't sell my daughter? Are you going to give me money?" asked the eldest aunt.

"This..." The eldest aunt hesitated.

"Da Ya, don't worry, maybe the eldest aunt just said the angry words." Li An comforted.

The eldest aunt sat on the ground and cried: "How can I take care of so much now? Dad doesn't care. I only have a little more than three taels of silver. Why don't you, brother and sister, lend me some? I beg you."

"I'm so angry." After Mrs. Liu finished speaking, she looked at Li An and said, "Let me tell you, if you dare to gamble, I won't want your aunt to be reluctant to do it. Then I will break your legs directly."

Although being sold to a wealthy family as a maid gave her a much more comfortable life than being sold to an ordinary family.

However, when wealthy families bought maids, they usually did so through human maids.

"Uncle Shi gave it to me," Li An said.

At this moment, Mrs. Liu walked in, looked at the rabbit in Li An's hand, and said doubtfully.

"what?"

"Where did the rabbit come from?"

The brothel prefers to buy some younger ones and train them from an early age.

"Okay." The eldest aunt gritted her teeth and agreed.

Normally, even if you want to sell your daughter, you will wait until she is eleven or twelve years old.

"Auntie, my mother said she wanted to sell me to my elder brother to pay off my debt." Da Ya cried.

But there is no difference between a enslaved person and a slave.

And Da Ya thought that her eldest aunt was really going to buy her, so she panicked and went to Mrs. Liu for help.

"Isn't it better to sell her to a rich family to serve the young master than to stay at home without food, clothing and warmth?"

"Then have you ever thought about where Da Ya would be sold if she was sold at her age?"

Mrs. Liu gritted her teeth and was about to agree, when Li An stopped her and shook his head slightly at her.

The eldest aunt favors boys over girls and dislikes Daya very much. She often scolds her.

Given the eldest aunt's character, if she borrowed this money, she would probably never get it back.

"Okay, by the way, mom, is grandpa okay?" Li An asked.

"Sister-in-law is too much, I'll go find her." Mrs. Liu angrily stuffed the rabbit into Li An's arms, pulled up her sleeves, and left in a hurry.

Seeing Li An coming out, he quickly cried out in pain.

The money must be repaid, and it wouldn't be worth it if it affects Li Fu's future.
