Chapter 70 She Always Hooks Up with Other Women
Bai Xiaozhu buried her head in the ground and closed her eyes, her hands trembling and tears falling.
She had no way out. If this person didn't help her, she would die.
This is the only way she can take at the moment, and Bai Xiaozhu wants to fight for herself.
Regardless of success or failure, she wants to give it a try this time.
Growing up, she had to give in to her brother in everything. She endured the beatings and scoldings from her parents and brother, and never said a word.
She thought that if she was well-behaved enough, her parents would pay more attention to her and her sisters.
She still held such naive thoughts until her sister was sent to the Zhang family and her body was carried out.
Bai Xiaozhu had seen her sister's body. There was not a single piece of good flesh on her body. She had been tortured horribly.
Just by looking at those injuries, she could already imagine what kind of torture her sister had suffered.
But my parents acted as if they didn't see anything. They took the money and buried my sister hastily, and even thought she was unlucky.
From then on, Bai Xiaozhu knew that they, the daughters, were nothing in the eyes of their parents.
Just like her sister, she is the same.
Their lives are not as important as Bai Yaozu's ability to have a meal of meat.
So asking Chu Yian for help is her only chance at the moment. No matter what, Bai Xiaozhu wants to give it a try.
Chu Yian didn't expect that she would take the initiative to sell herself into slavery. He opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Bai Xiaozhu's heart sank when she didn't hear Chu Yian's voice.
She thought of Mr. Zhang, her sister, Bai Yaozu, and her parents again.
Despair filled her heart again, and she felt as if she was in an ice cellar, her whole body cold.
But at this moment, Chu Yian's voice fell above his head, like the sound of nature, pulling Bai Xiaozhu out of the hell of despair.
"Have you thought it through? Once you sign the indenture, you'll be a slave."
Chu Yian originally wanted her to help in the shop and then advance her some money for emergencies, but she wanted to sell herself into slavery.
Bai Xiaozhu raised her head abruptly upon hearing this, a light gleaming in her eyes she had never seen before: "Miss, I am willing! I am willing to sell myself as a slave. I want to live, I don't want to be tortured to death. Please help me, Miss."
Chu Yian sighed, bent down and helped her up.
This time, Bai Xiaozhu did not refuse to get up, and stood up straight with the help of Chu Yian.
There was a gleam in the little girl's eyes, as if she had found a new direction in her life.
Chu Yian patted her head, trying to make his expression look gentler, and said, "Okay, I'll sign with you."
The moment Chu Yian said this, Bai Xiaozhu felt her heart tremble and tears fell.
She hurriedly wiped her face and wanted to kneel down to Chu Yian again, but was stopped by Chu Yian.
Chu Yian smiled and asked, "How old are you this year?"
Bai Xiaozhu choked up and said, "Miss, my name is Bai Xiaozhu, and I'm 12 years old."
12 years old...
He was so young, just a junior high school student in modern times, but in this cannibalistic ancient times, he was given away by his biological parents as a plaything.
Chu Yian suppressed his reluctance and asked, "You said you wanted to sell yourself as a slave, so how much silver are you willing to pay to sell yourself to me?"
Bai Xiaozhu was stunned. She just wanted to survive and had never considered this problem.
But Bai Xiaozhu knew that human life was worthless, and buying and selling maids was worthless too.
It's just a few taels of silver.
A few taels of silver... Bai's parents probably wouldn't buy it. For the sake of their precious son, they would take any risk to come find her and make her restless.
Bai Xiaozhu fell silent, his hands tightly clutching his sleeves.
Seeing her embarrassment, Chu Yian took her hand.
Her hands were very rough. She was only 12 years old, but her hands were already covered with calluses. She must have been a very hardworking girl.
Chu Yian said: "I will give you the money for selling my body according to the market price. If you are short of money, I can lend it to you without you having to pay interest."
"When you've paid me back and saved enough for your release, I'll use the money you sold yourself for today to buy you back. How do you do that?"
Bai Xiaozhu was stunned and looked at Chu Yian again.
Tears began to fall again. No one had ever been so nice to her in her life, never.
She could tell that Chu Yian was taking care of her. Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult for an ordinary person to redeem her freedom after selling herself into slavery.
Even if I could redeem it, I don't know how much more money it would cost.
But Chu Yian said that he only wanted the money from her selling her body today.
But how much can you get by selling your body?
It’s just five taels of silver.
This young lady was kinder than she had imagined. Bai Xiaozhu didn't know what to say. She took advantage of Chu Yian's distraction to kneel on the ground and kowtow.
Chu Yian: ...
Bai Xiaozhu was afraid that the night would be long and that Chu Yian would change his mind, so she wanted to quickly complete the sale of her body.
After all, tomorrow is the day she will be brought into the Zhang family...
Chu Yian could understand her anxiety. Since they had almost finished playing for the day, he simply got on the carriage with Sheng Nianyao and returned to Shengjing.
In the carriage, Sheng Nianyao was depressed and didn't say a word.
Chu Yian was puzzled and tugged at her clothes: "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
Sheng Nianyao said sourly: "Is Sister Chu so nice to everyone?"
Chu Yian glared, these words touched her sensitive nerves: "Nonsense, I am only so good to girls, those stinky men are not worthy of me treating them like this."
Sheng Nianyao: ...
Sheng Nianyao glared at Chu Yian, her tone becoming even more sour: "Sister Chu, you, you are always so naive, wanting to help everyone you meet."
"But, but there are so many people suffering in this world, how can we help them all?"
Hearing Sheng Nianyao's words, Chu Yian was stunned. He looked into her eyes, and that glance seemed to see into Sheng Nianyao's heart.
Sheng Nianyao's heart trembled, and she knew she had said the wrong thing as soon as she spoke it. She avoided Chu Yian's sight.
She bit her lip, lowered her head and stopped talking.
Chu Yian was very puzzled: "Nian Yao, what happened to you today?"
I always feel that something is wrong with Sheng Nianyao today.
Sheng Nianyao shook her head, her tone inevitably disappointed: "Sister Chu always seems to be distracted by other things every time she is with me."
Chu Yian frowned: "You just said that there are so many people suffering in the world, and not everyone can help them."
"I know my abilities are limited. If I hadn't encountered him, I would have let it go. But now that I have, I'll definitely help if I can."
"Nian Yao, it's already difficult for us women to survive. If even we have to make things difficult for other women, then won't our living environment be even worse?"
Sheng Nianyao opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
That wasn't what she meant, she just... hoped Sister Chu would look at her more.
She could also help Bai Xiaozhu solve the problem, and even solve it better, but Bai Xiaozhu just kept pestering Sister Chu.
Sister Chu didn’t notice that Bai Xiaozhu’s eyes had changed when he looked at her just now.
Maybe he is just grateful to her now, but who knows what will become of her in the future?
For some reason, Sheng Nianyao had a hunch that maybe one day in the future, Bai Xiaozhu would come to snatch Sister Chu from her.
When she thought of this, her heart felt choked up, and she didn't want to pay any attention to Chu Yian either.
She is married, but she is still hooking up with other women...
