Ru Yue Shu Yun Feng Wen Wan
Chapter 50 Murong Qingyan
He then pointed to the four people on the left and said, "These four can cook." They were not much better.
He Ruxian asked, "What will you do?"
The man showed his superiority over the others and spoke first, "I used to be a chef in a restaurant, and I can do a lot of things."
After he finished speaking, someone else said, "What I will do depends on what you ask me to do. I can make it by giving me the recipe." She should be only seventeen or eighteen years old, not much different from He Ru.
He Ru was very interested in her. "So, you say who is the cook, and I am the cook. Why do I need you if I know the recipe?"
"It's hard to say. I'm very adaptable. I can become whatever you want me to be."
He Ru: Hasn't this girl experienced the harshness of society? If she doesn't buy her, what kind of life will she have? Is she stupid, or is she betting on He Ru's soft heart?
The girl next to him wasn't dressed quite as ragged, and she didn't look as worn-out. She said, "Sir, don't listen to her. She's saying she doesn't know how to do anything. Listen to me! I can make cakes, spicy hot pot, hot pot, milk tea, snail noodles, and stinky tofu..."
Wait, He Ru lowered his head, shocked. Fellow countryman? He Ru couldn't reveal they were from the same hometown before he was sure of her character. He Ru had seen countless fellow countrymen kill each other. Before he was sure of her character, he couldn't let her touch hot pot. Otherwise, He Ru believed that with so many novels' experience, he could predict that she might be difficult to deal with, difficult to kill.
When she came back to her senses, she heard the girl still chattering: "Cake is a kind of pastry, with a delicate taste..."
He Ru was very surprised: "Really? You really know so many. What's your name?"
The girl said with a touch of pride, "The clear river reveals the trees of Hanyang, and the fragrant grass covers Parrot Island. Where is my hometown at dusk? The misty river makes me sad. My name is Murong Qingyan."
He Ru judged that this person was very ambitious, but he himself was also very ambitious, which was normal.
"What a wonderful poem! What a wonderful poem! Girl, what is the title of this poem? Are there any other parts?"
The girl said shyly, "There are some more, sir, but I can't remember them clearly now."
He Ru, okay, okay, it seems that I don’t need He Ru’s help anymore, she can get out.
They chatted about their own things, and He Ru continued to ask the last woman, who was a woman in her thirties. She looked very miserable and had the temperament of the heroine in a tragedy drama.
"I, I can make some side dishes, snacks and the like, but if I don't know how, I will learn." Then he looked at He Ru pitifully.
He Ru thought that the heroine of this kind of tragic drama had a tough life. It seemed that she had only one choice. No matter whether the simple-minded girl was really simple-minded or just scheming, it would not have much impact on He Ru.
She looked at the girl and said "What's your name and how old are you?"
When the girl saw He Ru coming back, her eyes sparkled. "My original name was San Ya. If you buy me, I can be called anything. I'm sixteen years old. Just buy me! You won't suffer any loss. I don't eat much, I can work, I can carry a bucket of water with one hand, and I can wash clothes, cook, and mop the floor. Just buy me!"
Looking at He Ru with expectation, she said, "Sister, you look beautiful and kind-hearted. Why don't you buy me?"
He Ru: "How do you know I'm kind and good-hearted?"
The girl's smile became more sincere. "Do I even need to look at this? Looking at you any longer would be a blasphemy to you. I feel it with my heart. I feel that you are a beautiful person with a kind heart."
When He Ru saw her flattering him, he thought of an old friend.
He Ru said nothing more and just looked at the two martial artists.
"What do you know?"
The woman didn't say anything, but struggled hard to break the chains. She was really shaken free. He Ru took a step back. Qi Changyun, who was chatting over there, also came over and pulled He Ru away a little.
Everyone in the yard became nervous.
“This is my strength.”
He Ru said, "If that's the case, why are you still here?"
The woman replied calmly, "I'm lazy. I can leave now, but I won't have anything to eat after I leave."
He Ru took two steps forward and whispered in her ear, "That may not be the case. How about we make a bet? If you can get out of here now, I will hire you to be with me. I mean hire you, not buy you. What do you think? If you don't come back..." He Ru glanced at her and then said, "I will still buy you. The contract of sale will be invalid."
The woman was suspicious. "How can I believe you?"
He Ru chuckled. "You have no confidence in yourself, which means you are guilty. It seems that you are not that strong. I think you are still..."
The woman interrupted her quickly, "Okay, I believe you."
He Ru turned around and asked the trafficker, "How much is she?"
"Twelve taels."
He Ru looked at the woman, and she shook her head imperceptibly. Originally, He Ru just looked at her subconsciously, but she was so powerful.
"She could run away at any time. It's so expensive."
"Six taels." The woman didn't move.
The trafficker was in a dilemma. He was also afraid that if he didn't sell her now, she would run away later. "Deal."
He Ru: ...
loss.
He Ru pointed at the girl again and asked, "How much is she?"
"This, eight taels."
The woman shook her head.
He Ru was shocked. "Ba Liang! Didn't you just hear her say that she doesn't know anything?"
"I'll give you five taels." He Ru saw the woman nod, and it was five taels. No one could argue anymore.
"No, girl, I'm at a loss this way! Seven taels."
"Seven taels? She looks like a country girl. You probably spent no more than three taels to buy her from her parents! I don't want such a country girl anymore. If you don't want to sell her for five taels, forget it."
This made the girl anxious. "Sister, please, buy me!" Then she looked at the trafficker and said weakly, "Just sell me! You'll make money anyway."
The human trafficker was finally irritated by her and came forward to beat her.
He Ru said quickly: "One more hit and it will be four taels."
The trafficker made a sharp move and said, "That won't do. Five taels and half a guan!"
"Okay, deal."
The human trafficker gave the indenture to He Ru.
"The payment and goods have been settled. You can take them away now. No need to go to the government office."
The money and goods are settled, people nowadays are no longer considered human beings!
He Ru didn't quite understand. She looked at Qi Changyun, and Qi Changyun nodded.
He Ru found it even more ironic that a piece of paper could trap them. Or maybe, they just wanted to stay here because they had food to eat and a place to live!
He Ru hadn't moved yet. She was waiting for the woman to take action, and also waiting for Qi Changyun to see whether he would buy Murong Qingyan.
He Ru looked at Murong Qingyan and saw that she was talking with great interest, and was also wary of the woman behind her.
But the next second, He Ru felt the momentum of the person behind her suddenly change. He Ru wanted to turn around to stop her, but she didn't expect it to play into the woman's hands. She grabbed He Ru's waist with her right hand and her neck with her left hand, and jumped back. By the time Qi Changyun reacted, they had already reached the top of the wall.
