The daughter of the prime minister died tragically and was reborn to kill people everywhere
Chapter 347 Sell yourself
However, this was Princess Yunxi's person, and the princess was standing outside the lobby. Although she didn't say anything, he was not stupid enough to think that she was really here to watch the fun.
The county magistrate now had lost his patience and was a little annoyed by Old Man Huang's unreasonable demands.
So, he turned cold and said seriously.
"Old man Huang, I have made it very clear to you. Since you chose to sell your son, you should have known that from the moment you signed the indenture, he was no longer your son, and he no longer had any obligation to be filial to you.
I am giving you some kind advice because I see that you are old.
If you continue to be stubborn, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
When Old Man Huang saw the county magistrate's sudden change of expression, he felt a little panicked.
But when I thought of Shen An's wealthy appearance, I felt a little reluctant.
Thinking that he is already so old, what can the county magistrate really do to him?
You can't just beat him to death in court. If someone dies, he will be in trouble even if he is the county magistrate.
Thinking of this, Old Man Huang gave Old Woman Huang a look, and the two of them began to play the victim again.
"My Lord, it's not that I'm unreasonable, it's just that there are so many things going on at home that I have no other choice.
My eldest son is still in prison. If my second son doesn't support us, will he let us die?"
He sang the same tune as Old Lady Huang, and after he said this, Old Lady Huang burst into tears and snot.
The county magistrate's face became even uglier now. Was it because he was too easy to talk to that the people didn't take him seriously?
"Snapped!"
The gavel slammed heavily on the table with a loud bang, and the crying finally stopped.
"Old man Huang, I am not discussing this with you, I am informing you."
Old Man Huang wanted to say something else, but Shen An didn't give him a chance to speak again.
He took out a deed from his arms and slowly unfolded it in front of the county magistrate.
Then he bent his knees and knelt down.
The county magistrate didn't understand what he was doing and stood up quickly in fear.
Upon seeing this, the master put down his pen and went forward to help the man.
"Mr. Shen, what are you doing? Get up quickly."
Although he is just a scholar, he is more than just a scholar.
The princess has acknowledged that he is a servant in her princess mansion. Although he is not an official, it is almost the same.
Shen An did not stand up, but handed the deed to the master.
Then, he said in a loud voice, "Student Shen An begs the Lord to cut off his honors. He is willing to sell himself to the Yunxi Princess Mansion and be a slave forever."
If he could not avoid being sucked dry by that family as soon as he escaped from slavery, then he would rather be a slave for life.
Back then, he had the opportunity to make further progress in the imperial examination.
However, after passing the examination to become a scholar, he was unwilling to continue studying.
The Shen family was originally a merchant family and had sponsored many students. Moreover, he had been saved by Mr. Shen and had sold himself to the Shen family.
The Shen family intended to train him to become an official, but he chose to learn business from Uncle Shen, and eventually became a manager of the Shen family.
That is, he had already expected the character of the Huang family.
If he passed the imperial examination and became an official, then reputation would undoubtedly be very important to him. In order to get one step closer, he had no choice but to compromise when the Huang family approached him.
He didn't want to have anything to do with this family anymore, and he didn't want them to benefit from him.
Therefore, he chose the path that everyone thought was the most undesirable, but in his opinion it was the most enjoyable one.
Perhaps, he had already thought about this day.
Therefore, he prepared the indenture contract early on.
However, this time, the owner of the indenture contract was no longer the Shen family, nor was it Mr. Shen, but Princess Yunxi Mu Yunyao.
To do this, he needed to give up his status as a scholar, which was very important in the eyes of others.
But he didn't feel sorry.
The lawyer took the thin indenture, but it felt like a thousand pounds of weight.
Even though he had been with the county magistrate for many years, he was actually just a juren.
Moreover, it took him many years to pass the examination from a scholar to a juren. The road to the imperial examination is full of hardships, which only those who have participated in it know.
And the person in front of him actually gave up the scholar that others had been longing for so easily and became a slave again.
The master's eyes changed when he looked at the old couple of the Huang family again. How far must they be pushed to for them to be so cruel to him?
The county magistrate took the indenture, his eyes darkened and he sighed.
"Mr. Shen, this county has already ruled that you have nothing to do with the Huang family and the old couple. You don't have to support them. Why do you have to do this?"
Shen An smiled bitterly, "Sir, you don't know that the Huang family has always been unscrupulous in order to achieve their goals. If I don't cut off my own retreat, I'm afraid they won't give up easily.
The students no longer want to get involved with them, so it’s better to just give up the idea.”
What he didn't say was that he had deeper considerations.
That day at the city gate, Huang Dashan slandered him as a spy, but his rebuttal was not groundless.
How did they find those guys back then? There is a problem here in itself.
Although he had not been in contact with those people for a long time, when he thought about it now, he felt that many things were very inconsistent.
Maybe Huang Dashan doesn't know, but he thinks that as a father he would know something.
If he was still free, and if anything was really discovered, even if they knew he had been sold, it would be difficult for him to escape responsibility.
It would be better for him to take the opportunity to sell himself out, then he would have nothing to do with them at all.
The county magistrate didn't know what Shen An was thinking, so he tried to persuade him a few times, but saw that he had made up his mind.
Eventually it turned into a helpless sigh.
"Ugh……"
The county magistrate sighed deeply, and finally put his seal on the contract of sale.
This is the indenture with a red deed. If you want to change it, you have to go to the government office to handle it.
When Old Man Huang saw that he would rather sell himself into slavery again than provide for them in their old age, he was really disappointed.
He started cursing in class.
"You damn unfilial son, I should have strangled you to death when you were just born.
You deserve to die a miserable death, you bastard, you deserve to be your slave for the rest of your life."
"Snapped!"
The sound of the gavel slamming down finally brought Old Man Huang back to his senses.
He shrank his neck timidly, not daring to look at the county magistrate.
"If you roar in court again, Old Man Huang, I won't mind giving you twenty beatings to teach you a lesson."
When Old Man Huang heard that he was going to be beaten with a stick, he turned pale with fear and shook his head repeatedly.
"No, no, I don't dare. I don't dare."
The county magistrate was speechless seeing his bullying and fear of the strong, thinking that Shen An had been forced to sell himself into slavery again.
