Even Su Manman, who didn't get along with her, couldn't bear to turn her head away at this moment.

Su Rongrong didn't say anything. She only squatted down and held down her head after she kowtowed five times.

Su Qiaoqiao looked at her hopefully.

Su Rongrong's voice was still gentle, but the words she said made Su Qiaoqiao feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

"You can come back if you want, because your second brother owes Master Baili 150 taels.

I cannot possibly help you with your problem. You can only ask Master Baili for help.

He is a son of an official family. It is impossible for him to owe others a favor for a stranger like me, so I have to give him some benefits.

The price is fifty taels, what do you think? "

Su Qiaoqiao was dumbfounded. She didn't expect that her elder sister would still talk to her about money at this time.

Su Rongrong ignored her and continued, "If it's okay, I'll go find Master Baili right away. From now on, you stay at home and work, and I'll pay you.

When you earn fifty taels with your own ability, I will let you go free.

Whether you want to marry into a rich family or continue to be sold to a wealthy family as a servant, I don’t care.”

Su Manman and Su Jinhong both breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.

This is good. With the condition of owing money, Su Qiaoqiao is restrained and will no longer be undisciplined like before.

If she doesn't agree, then it's better not to have such a sister.

If you agree, there is still some hope.

They will teach her slowly later, and after a long time, when she is older, she will naturally know that what He taught her before was wrong.

Su Qiaoqiao no longer wanted to be the wife of a wealthy family. Her mind was filled with thoughts about how long it would take her to earn fifty taels.

No matter how ignorant she was, she knew that it was not easy for people in the village to save two or three taels of silver a year, even though He kept complaining about the difficulties at home.

If that's the case, then she'll be alone and have to spend her whole life making money to pay off debts, right?

She felt a little overwhelmed when she thought about giving away the few cents she had worked so hard to earn.

But she couldn't bear the thought of licking those disgusting things.

At this moment, she was in a dilemma and hated herself for being so careless.

If you had taken a good look at the indenture before putting your hand print on it, you wouldn't have put yourself in this situation.

Of course, she also had a glimmer of hope in her heart.

What if she is not a beauty but an ordinary maid?

Su Rongrong looked at her for a long time without saying anything. Not only was there no panic in her eyes, but there was even a hint of luck. She had completely lost hope.

She looked at Su Manman: "Manman, she has made her choice, kick her out.

Master Baili said that my female household will come down in the next few days and will write your name and Jinhong's name on the list.

From now on, we will live together as three people. If Jinhui comes back and is willing to go home, then we can live together as four people.

As for this one, just pretend that my mother never gave birth to him!"

Su Qiaoqiao's mouth was faster than her brain. After hearing this, she said quickly, "Sister, I promise. I promise to give Master Baili fifty taels. Please don't chase me away."

After she finished speaking, she reacted and a look of annoyance flashed in her eyes.

Why did you say that? Maybe her indenture was just for a maid.

Soon she thought again, what if she is a beautiful woman?

She simply couldn't afford to gamble, and she didn't want to be someone so humble as to be worse than an animal.

Only dogs eat shit. She is a human being, the daughter of a scholar, and one of the twins. How could she do such a humble thing?

If her second brother passed the imperial examination and became a high-ranking official in the future, she would have a chance to find a good marriage with the help of her second brother.

But once people find out that she has done such a thing, who would marry her?

Su Rongrong could tell what the girl was thinking at a glance.

If she wasn't the original owner's sister, if she wasn't really that old and there was still a chance of being saved, she really wouldn't want to bother with her.

But she still has to give it a chance.

If it really doesn’t work, then give up.

In this way, neither the original owner nor the two younger brothers and sisters in front of her will blame her.

Therefore, she chose to brainwash the little girl.

"You are smart and know how to choose what is beneficial to you.

I know you may still be thinking, maybe being a beauty isn’t the right thing to do?

But I tell you, even if a girl in a death contract is beaten to death by her master, neither the government nor us, her relatives, can do anything to that family.

Also, your second brother is a good student and will definitely pass the imperial examination and become a scholar before he turns 20.

One can pass the imperial examination and become a juren or even a jinshi before the age of thirty.

As his sister, your status will also rise.

You are more than three years younger than him. Even if your second brother passed the imperial examination and became a scholar at the age of 20, you are only seventeen.

A seventeen-year-old girl is considered old in our countryside, but in those wealthy families or official families, her age is just right.

By then, you will have more choices of marriage partners than before.

If your second brother is promising and can pass the imperial examination or even become a Jinshi at the age of 20, then you will definitely be a daughter of an official family.

So, what kind of rich family are you looking for?"

At this point, Su Rongrong saw that she was somewhat interested, so she continued:

“If you become a maid, even if your second brother passes the imperial examination and becomes a Jinshi, your options will only be downgraded again and again.

After all, among the four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, merchants are the lowest. Not only did you become a maid in a merchant's house, but you were also a beauty in a life-long contract.

This is a stain that will stay with you throughout your life.

Even if someone marries you in the future for your second brother's sake, the children you give birth to will be criticized for the rest of their lives.

When people talk about them, they always say that their mothers used to lick the filth of those merchants.

Even worse, ask them if they like it too and let them lick it too.

Qiaoqiao, you are already nine years old, think carefully, does what I said make sense?"

As Su Rongrong finished speaking, not only Su Qiaoqiao, but even Liu Miao, Su Manman and Su Jinhong all turned grim-faced.

They didn't dare to imagine the assumptions Su Rongrong mentioned. Just listening to them made them feel suffocated.

And Su Qiaoqiao herself really stopped thinking at this moment.

She is only nine years old and there are endless possibilities.

As long as her second brother is promising, or her eldest sister is more capable, she can find any husband she wants, right?

Even if she wanted to be the wife of a wealthy family, she didn't have to sell herself into slavery.

As my elder sister said, this is also one of the stains.

Not to mention future offspring, even her husband's family would definitely look down on her because of this.

Rich families basically have three wives and four concubines. If she is the legal wife, she will be ridiculed by the concubines because of this.

If I were to become a concubine, I would also be ridiculed by the mistress because of this.

By then, no matter whether she is the mistress or the concubine, if she tells the master about her past, she will sooner or later fall out of favor.

If I owe Mr. Baili fifty taels, then I only owe him.

She is willing to pay it back, and she will pay it back when her second brother becomes successful and marries into a wealthy family.

No matter what, it's better than being a maid.
