Ruthless Host and Her Little Darling Quick Transmigration

A couple stood in the distance, watching their child being beaten. They stood there fearfully, glancing over every now and then.

Only after the wealthy merchant and his servants had gone far away did the couple dare to approach. Seeing that the child hadn't been beaten to death, they breathed a huge sigh of relief.

"You little brat, why are you running away? You've been a pimp, you'll never have to worry about food or drink. It's your good fortune that your mother even took a liking to you. You still dare to run? You deserve to be beaten like this." The woman didn't ask about his injuries, she just started cursing.

The little boy curled up on the ground, his heart throbbing with pain. These were his biological parents; they could tolerate his daily beatings and scoldings, but today they were going to sell him to that kind of place!

He's already working very hard, why is he doing this?

Yesterday, my neighbor Er Ya was also sold there. Er Ya said that there is food and drink there, and new clothes to wear. She will never come back.

But after she left, people started cursing and saying all sorts of nasty things. They said she was always a vixen, and that she was someone who would be ridden by a thousand men and slept with ten thousand. They even spat on the ground while saying this.

Now that he's going to be sold into slavery, won't everyone point fingers and curse him? Say he's been ridden by a thousand men and slept with by ten thousand, call him a vixen?

A middle-aged woman with heavy makeup walked up with two strong thugs.

She gave them a look of disgust. "Are you still going to sell them or not? You've been beaten like this, I'm going to deduct your pay." I've seen ruthless people, but I've never seen anyone this ruthless. Other people's parents must have run out of money to sell their children to her.

The child being sold was like escaping a living hell, and Yunniang looked at the two of them with even more disdain.

The little boy felt despair as he saw them chasing after him. He was too small to escape. He was like a little lamb surrounded by wolves; either way, he was doomed.

"Sell it, sell it, sell it! This kid's just a rascal. No matter how badly you beat him, he'll be fine in a few days. If you're worried, come back in a few days. I guarantee he'll be lively and energetic again then!"

The man's face was full of flattery, and the woman echoed him from behind. "They get beaten all the time, they're tough! Beat them all you want when you get back, as long as they have a breath left, they won't die." The two of them were afraid that if Yunniang left, they would be stuck with the child and unable to sell him.

"He's so young, I'll have to raise him for several more years. If it weren't for his resilience, I wouldn't have bought him." Many high-ranking officials and wealthy people like children like this, hoping that the one they buy will live a long time.

"Yes, yes, you're right. Look at this silver." The man's face was full of smiles.

"Four ounces, no more than that." Yunniang's tone was uncompromising, as if she had suffered a great loss.

The man's smile faltered. "Didn't we agree on five taels?"

"Beatled like this, who knows if any bones are broken? A doctor's visit is free! Sell it or not, it's up to you. I bought a maid yesterday for only two taels of silver, and she was from next door to you." Yunniang turned to leave.

The man quickly blocked their way. "Four taels it is. Give me the money, and I can take her away." He had heard about what happened next door; he was able to find Yunniang thanks to the help of a neighbor.

Four taels! That's two taels more than that girl's, so it's a good deal.

Listening to his parents haggle like they were buying and selling goods, the little boy's heart sank completely. His hands and feet were ice-cold, his eyes were numb, and he couldn't even feel the pain in his body.

"Sign this child's name, change the household registration at the county government, and the money is yours." Yunniang took out a few taels of silver and weighed them in her hand.

The man's eyes lit up when he saw the silver, but he looked embarrassed when he heard that he had to write something. "I... I can't write. I heard that the person next door who sold their daughter put her fingerprint on the document. You see..."

"Pah, you peasant! I have to do it myself." Yunniang haughtily took out her brush and ink and gave him a light glance.

The man immediately smiled obsequiously, gave his son's name, and offered a series of explanations, hoping to leave a good impression.

"Li Yunxiao, meaning soaring straight to the sky. This child cried loudly when he was born, so I thought he would be successful and specially asked the village scholar to help him choose a name. Little brat! He wasted five of my eggs for nothing. All he does when he grows up is eat, eat, eat."

When Qin Baobao turned back, the child was being held in the arms of a large man. He looked pitiful and endearing.

Qin Baobao, with a heart of stone, glanced at the child, walked away unmoved, and had no intention of meddling in his affairs. There are countless injustices in the world, but at least this child has all his limbs intact and can survive.

She had only taken a few steps when a child blocked her way. "Sister, save me!" It was Li Yunxiao, who had been being carried by the big man, who had somehow run over.

Actually, when the wealthy businessman hit him, he had already seen Qin Baobao and heard the man talking about the young woman. He understood that he had taken the blame for this woman. This woman in front of him was so beautiful, like a fairy, that he was willing to be beaten for her.

But he was about to be sold into that kind of place by his parents, and now the only person he could turn to was this older sister. She was so beautiful, surely she would save him? With this belief, Li Yunxiao mustered his last strength and rushed to her.

Qin Baobao glanced down at him, then at her skirt that was being held. She was a germaphobe, and the child's dirty appearance immediately made her feel uncomfortable.

"Why should I save you?" Qin Baobao's expression grew even colder.

Why did you save me? Because I just saved you too. Hearing this, Li Yunxiao lowered his head in disappointment, unable to say anything.

Hidden in the shadows, Duan Jiufeng nearly lost his temper upon hearing the word "sister." That was his title; no one else could call him that. And those filthy hands—didn't he see his sister was already angry?

If it weren't for the crowd that had gathered around him, and his desire to play the hero and save the damsel in distress, Duan Jiufeng would have already given in.

“Girl, his parents have already sold him to me. I advise you not to meddle in other people’s business.” Yunniang walked over, swaying as she waved her fan.

When I saw Qin Baobao, my eyes lit up.

What a beauty! A real beauty! If we could capture such a beauty, we could definitely make a fortune.

"Catch her for me!"

The thugs thought they were going to arrest Li Yunxiao, but when they looked up, they saw that the person Yunniang was pointing at was actually the beautiful woman next to her.

"Mom, are you sure you're not pointing to the wrong child? Isn't this the child we're supposed to catch?"

"That's right, it's her!"

"Little Flower Girl! Your mother has treated you well, why did you run away? Do you know how long your mother has been looking for you?"

"Mom, this girl has an extraordinary air about her; she's clearly not simple. What if she gets into trouble..." The thug hesitated.

"What are you afraid of? Our brothel has powerful backers. Go ahead and arrest them; I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong." Yunniang said arrogantly, confident of victory.

Qin Baobao stood there watching them talk to themselves. She had initially thought there really was someone who looked exactly like her, but it turned out he was just trying to force himself on her.

That depends on whether her fists agree!

It's been a while since I've fought. I wonder if I can knock someone down with one punch? I'm quite curious!

Just as the burly man's hand was about to reach out, Qin Baobao's fist was itching to punch. Suddenly, a person dressed in white and wearing a bamboo hat floated down from the sky. He exuded an air of superiority, very much like a chivalrous hero.

"In broad daylight, under the clear sky, how dare you force us to buy and sell? Is there no law left?"
