In her previous life, Chen Shuilin was a wicked mother-in-law notorious throughout the ten surrounding villages. Not only was she cruel to her daughter-in-law, but she was also unkind to her two du...
Once Chen Shuilian made a decision, no one could change her mind. Although they felt a little nervous, they had no say.
They just watched Chen Shuilian leave the store in a hurry.
After she left, Zhao Maizhou covered his chest and whispered, "Mom was so scared..."
Li Xiaoxing also took away all her strength and leaned on her man, "Our family is going to buy someone..."
Wang Miaomiao also trembled and repeated: "I bought someone, I bought someone..."
Zhao Fengtian was already starving by now and didn't care about the few people who were still immersed in their own world.
It’s just buying a person, is it that serious?
After a moment of shock, he had long since recovered.
Instead of being shocked, you might as well take care of your stomach that has been hungry all day.
He stood up, took the steamed bun that Chen Shuilian had left for them, and took a big bite.
It smells really good.
It tastes even better with the funny expressions of my second brother and the others.
Haha, it’s also delicious.

When the broker saw Chen Shuilian visiting again, a look of delight appeared on his face.
The boss is here again!
"Boss Chen, what brings you here today?"
Chen Shuilian: "I just opened this shop, and I'm too busy to handle it, so I want to hire two people to work in the shop. I came here today to ask you about the price."
The dentist was delighted, as he was making money again.
He immediately smiled and said, "Isn't this a coincidence? Today, a group of people came to my friend's place to sell their bodies. Would you like to come with me to take a look? The price is not expensive. The cheapest one can be bought for only five taels of silver."
Chen Shuilian originally just wanted to ask about the price, but when she heard that the cheapest one was only five taels, she didn't hesitate and said directly: "Okay, let's go and take a look now."
Sure enough, when Chen Shuilian arrived at the place, she saw that the broker had not lied to her. What he said about a group of people just arriving was indeed true.
The small room in front of me was filled with people who were forced to sell their bodies.
They all had sad faces, which made people feel sad.
Some of them were people fleeing famine, and some had family misfortunes that left them with no choice but to sell themselves.
When Chen Shuilian followed the broker in, everyone looked at her with passionate eyes, as if they had seen salvation.
Because they have a common goal, which is to survive!
Chen Shuilian looked around the room and finally set her eyes on a woman.
This woman seems to be a good worker and is very suitable for her shop.
So she raised her chin and asked, "How much does this person cost?"
The man immediately said, "You are old now, so you only need five taels of silver."
This price was within Chen Shuilian's budget, but it also made her feel deeply sad. In the face of the predicament of life, a person was only worth five taels of silver.
"It's her." Chen Shuilian decided.
When the woman heard this, she instantly showed an expression of ecstasy.
She hurriedly bowed to Chen Shuilian, "Thank you, ma'am. Thank you, ma'am."
Even though Chen Shuilian considered herself to be "heartless", she still felt uncomfortable after receiving such thanks.
They are clearly selling their bodies, but they still have to be grateful to the buyers. What an outrageous world.
Chen Shuilian waved her hand, "Just pack up and follow me."
The agent immediately made a gesture of invitation, "Then please follow me, I will take you to sign the documents."
Chen Shuilian looked around and said, "Wait a minute. I want to see if there are any other suitable candidates."
Her shop is doing a booming business, and it is definitely not enough for just one person to buy, so the woman can cook noodles and make steamed buns in the front.
But it would be better to have a young and strong man in the kitchen to take care of the miscellaneous chores in the store.
When the broker heard that Chen Shuilian wanted to buy someone else, he was delighted and said, "Take your time to look around. Do you want me to take you over there to take a look?"
