Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1069

Hong Que lowered her head and replied with red eyes, "My parents took the money my grandmother saved and promised to find me a good family to marry into. But after my grandmother passed away for only three days, they despised me for being a freeloader and wanted to sell me off."

Shi Anxia hugged the little red magpie with heartache and coaxed her, "Okay, sell it to my house and let it keep me company."

Speaking of this, Hong Que recalled the scene of the transaction that day, "Madam, you may not know that the old lady spent a lot of money when she bought me."

"Really?" Shi Anxia had never heard Tang Chujun talk about it before.

Of course, her mother Tang Chujun was wealthy and had never cared about that little bit of money.

Hong Que nodded, "My mother wanted to sell me to Wangxianglou at that time..."

She is almost fourteen years old, and should be old enough to know things, and she should know what a brothel is.

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes. "It was the old lady who took a liking to me at first sight and said she wanted to buy me, and even offered twenty taels of silver."

Shi Anxia had to admit that twenty taels of silver could buy three ordinary maids. This price was a bit expensive.

Hong Que continued, "My mother was blinded by money, so she turned around and asked the people at Wangxianglou if they wanted to raise the price. The people at Wangxianglou were so angry that they told my mother that the maximum price was 25 taels. But the old lady directly offered 30 taels."

The Hongque who was worth thirty taels of silver was actually the little princess of the tribe. Alas... Shi Anxia felt very sad after hearing this.

But after hearing about Mu Sang's experience, I felt that it would be better for her not to be that kind of princess.

Hong Que didn't notice that her master was distracted, and continued to talk, "Wangxianglou refused to do it, thinking that we must have joined forces to set up the trap. When the old lady completed the formalities, Wangxianglou's mother came over and scolded me for a long time, saying that I was not at a loss for paying fifty taels. Guess what my mother said?"

"Your mother went to my mother to ask for silver, asking her to give twenty more taels, otherwise she wouldn't sell it?" Shi Anxia knew the expression on her face without even thinking.

"Madam, you are so smart." Hong Que said while sighing.

She clearly wanted to say it in a cheerful tone, but found that she couldn't do it at all. "Mrs. Zhong, who was beside the old lady, wanted to report to the police, and only then did she shut my mother up. She even beat her chest and stamped her feet, and told me that I must make a lot of money in the future to honor her, so that my grandmother would not let me down."

Shi Anxia propped herself up and sat up. "So your grandmother told you that they were your parents, and you thought they were your parents?"

Hong Que was confused by this, "Grandma wouldn't lie to me, why would she lie to me like this?"

Shi Anxia touched Hongque's head like she was touching a puppy, and suddenly she screamed "Ah!" because she found that Ye Baoer's head was resting on the edge of the chaise longue at some point.

Ye Baoer, who was discovered, was wagging his tail happily. Maybe he felt that the chaise longue was still very empty, so he jumped up, squeezed over, lay down steadily, and made those "hmm, eh, eh" sounds in a coquettish manner.

Bei Hui came in and took a look, wow, all these people and dogs were in a mess.

When Hongque saw Beihui coming, he stuck out his tongue, put on his shoes and went downstairs quickly.

Bei Hui didn't say anything to Hong Que. She just glanced at her master and smiled, "Madam, just let them do what they want."

Shi Anxia said, "Outside we set the rules, but inside this room, it feels like a home if we are more relaxed. Sister Beihui, you too, don't always have a stern face, smile more."

She waved her hand, pulled Bei Hui closer, and gently pulled the flesh on Bei Hui's cheeks with both hands, "Smile, smile, smile!"

Bei Hui finally couldn't help laughing and held her master's hand, "Madam, since you married the young master, you have finally lived like a young girl."
