Her marriage with Lu Yan was clearly a calculated plan.
But why, I planned to deal with Gu Lao Er, and Lu Yan...
A humble village woman, illiterate, could marry a man like Gu Linbei. In this era, how many men can promise their wives to be together forever?
At that time, Song Jiao'e's eyes were full of hatred when she looked at Lu Yan.
She is not as crazy as Wanmei.
She just stared fiercely at the elegantly dressed Lu Yan outside the shed. She even vaguely hoped that Lu Yao wouldn't see them. But...
The opposite happened.
"Fifth younger brother and sister!"
As Wanmei's urgent cry suddenly rang out, Lu Yan and Qingqing's eyes all turned to the shed.
Separated by a tattered wooden door, Song Jiao'e felt like her life was separated by a chasm.
Lu Yan and Qingqing are outside, enjoying a great life.
But she seemed like a joke.
I tried to climb out of the mud again and again, but was stepped back into the mud again and again.
"Fifth brother's wife, Qingqing, please help me." Wanmei had never looked at Qingqing like this before.
In the past, her eyes were filled with disgust and disdain.
And now, my heart and eyes are full of hope.
Wanmei recalled the past, when Qingqing's eyes were always filled with hope every time she saw her. She knew that was a child's longing for a mother.
Wan Mei understands.
She just pretended not to see Qingqing's attachment to her.
But now, in order to leave here, she used all her strength.
"Fifth brother's wife, judging by the way you're dressed, you must be living quite well, right? Life in the capital is tough. If you could rescue me... from now on, we can stick together as a family and keep each other warm. No one will dare bully you anymore."
Wan Mei said this with a hopeful look on her face.
Even the brothel worker standing nearby was stunned by this scene.
The broker looked at Lu Yan cautiously, with a bit of flattery on his face: "Oh, this guy and the lady are related? It's my fault that I didn't recognize him, otherwise..."
The broker paused deliberately.
She was obviously testing Lu Yan's attitude.
Look at Lu Yan's clothes, they are extremely luxurious.
He is definitely not a noble person from an ordinary family.
However……
Lu Yan smiled, and cast a provocative look at Wan Mei: "Who do you think you are? No one dares to bully us anymore? Do you have any other strengths besides eating?"
This one sentence almost choked Wan Mei to death.
She lay on the guardrail, but she knew that she couldn't be impulsive and couldn't break up with Lu Yan.
Wanmei's eyes were red. Knowing that the fifth brother's wife had always been unreasonable, she immediately turned her gaze to Qingqing.
"Qingqing, my daughter, my little darling..."
When Qingqing heard her words, she quickly hid behind Lu Yan.
Wanmei was so angry that her teeth were itching. She had seen it all. Qingqing was holding a candied haws in her hand. She must have had a good life.
They had never been able to eat such precious things when they were in Xiaohe Village.
"I say, Fourth Sister-in-law, just forget about it."
Song Jiao'e looked at the two people outside with a hopeless look.
"That's Lao Wu and his wife. If they hadn't been so cruel back then, would we have gotten to this point today?"
Thinking about the grievances I have suffered along the way, thinking about how I have to live despite being exhausted and desperate.
Wan Mei's grip on the railing loosened little by little, her heart and face filled with fatigue.
How did it come to this?
Didn't they live well in the past? Back then, Lao Wu hunted and supported the family. That kind of life was truly happy and fulfilling.
"Qingqing, can you help mother? As long as you... say a word... your fifth aunt will definitely be willing to take me away."
Wan Mei's eyes were filled with tears unknowingly.
She looked at Qingqing with hope on her face.
That was her child, the only child in her life.
But Qingqing looked at her and just shook her head.
"Hahaha, did you see that?" Song Jiao'e suddenly laughed at the side: "Wanmei, that's your daughter! Let Lu Yan raise her, she will only raise an ungrateful person, just like her and Lao Wu!"
Song Jiao'e's desperate look was enough to make the broker frown.
"You haven't been beaten enough, right? How can you talk like that?"
It was obvious that these two men came here sincerely to buy people. If they were offended by these two fools, it would be a loss.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Song Jiao'e smiled tiredly.
Lu Yan glanced at the two of them, and finally gave only ten taels of silver to buy three people and an eight-year-old girl, named Yaoyao.
The broker hadn't seen such a straightforward customer for a long time, and he was immediately delighted.
"Madam, if you need anything else later, you can come to me again."
He smiled so hard that his teeth were showing.
The corners of Lu Yan's mouth curled up slightly, and there was a hint of tenderness in her ink-black eyes.
"Okay, but I need your help."
After Lu Yan finished speaking, he took out another five taels of silver without hesitation.
"Madam, please let me know if you have anything to say."
The broker was very respectful.
"Those two people over there..." Lu Yan raised her chin, her face full of smiles.
Wan Mei leaned on the railing, thinking her chance had come again. She looked at Lu Yan with hope on her face.
"Fifth sister-in-law, I knew you were the best and would not ignore me."
As she finished speaking, she heard Lu Yan say, "The imperial examination results will be announced tomorrow. Let's take them to see the excitement."
For such a small matter, Lu Yan actually gave five taels of silver? This was something the broker had not expected.
