How many people in their line of work are innocent? They just take what they need, and she doesn't ask why.
Moreover, Xiao Hechuan still has some status in her eyes. He is the most promising student in Baiyun Academy. Maybe one day he will soar to the sky and become a high-ranking official that she cannot afford to offend. She must not offend him.
Besides, he is good friends with the young masters of the Su and Lu families and their relationship is very close. With these two families as his backers, what big trouble could possibly happen?
However, Chen Jinhua was not an honest person. After being brought back to the dental clinic and the rag in her mouth was taken out, she started yelling.
"You are engaging in human trafficking. I will sue you at the county government office."
Her loud voice made Madam Qian feel the veins on her forehead twitch:
"Someone, come and seal her mouth again!"
If this person is disobedient in her hands, she will not be merciful. She has plenty of means to make him obedient.
Soon, Chen Jinhua's mouth was blocked again, so tightly that it hurt on both sides of her mouth.
The servants brought a chair for Madam Qian to sit on. Madam Qian held the tea. She looked a little fierce, not a good person:
"If you really like to talk too much, then I don't mind giving you some dumb medicine so that you can't speak for the rest of your life. Don't talk nonsense in front of me. It's useless. Now that you are here, don't think about having freedom in the future.
Just accept your fate. Actually, there is nothing wrong with the current situation for you. You can't even produce an identity document. You are an illegal resident. Coming to me, you can at least get an identity, even if it is a lowly slave status.
But look at yourself, wow, you are reduced to begging on the streets at your age, and you don’t even have a child to take care of you in your old age. How much of a failure are you as a human being?
Rather than living a life of starvation and cold, you might as well stay with me and learn the rules, talk less and do more, so as to avoid getting into trouble. When you go to a good family in the future, at least you won't have to worry about three meals a day, food and shelter. It's a good deal for you, don't confuse good with bad!"
Chen Jinhua was still tied up and her mouth was blocked again, so she couldn't say anything.
Nanny Qian's words that she would be given a mute drug frightened her so much that she lost her temper.
But what Nanny Qian said was not wrong. If she was a smart person, she should have accepted her fate. But unfortunately Chen Jinhua was not a smart person.
In her opinion, being a slave is the most despicable thing. There is no human rights. One is just like an ox or a horse, no different from an animal. At least she was a good citizen before. Now she is suddenly asked to be a slave. How can she agree?
She was tied up like this for a whole day and night. The skin on her hands was rubbed raw by the ropes, and she felt like her old bones were about to fall apart.
As soon as Nanny Qian came and untied the cloth in her mouth, she started yelling that she would report to the police, her mouth full of vicious words. Nanny Qian did not get angry, but called an old maid and brought in a bowl of black medicine.
"You talk too much. Do you think I'm kidding you? Do you think I really don't dare to do anything to you? See, she should be about the same age as you. She talks too much, so I made her speechless for the rest of her life. Look, now she is very obedient, isn't she?
Come here, give her this medicine. If you don't accept my offer, I will punish you. If you don't obey me, I will skin you alive!"
At a command from Nanny Qian, a group of old women came forward and held Chen Jinhua down, and began to pour medicine into her mouth. Chen Jinhua was so frightened that her face turned pale. She couldn't believe it and bit her lips tightly, but two fists were no match for four hands, and the bowl of medicine was finally poured into her stomach.
Chen Jinhua was so scared that she peed her pants. The drug worked immediately. After drinking it, she found that she really couldn't speak and could only make a hissing sound in her throat.
She was desperate, tears streaming down her face, and she lay on the ground. Aunt Qian looked at her with a look of disgust:
"I told you, I'm not kidding you, you don't know what's good for you, I'll give you one last chance, either you just listen to me or I won't mind selling you to some weird families to do work, you'll be tortured even more then!"
Nanny Qian added fuel to the fire and continued to provoke and scare her.
In fact, this mute medicine cannot make her mute for life, it is only temporary and she will recover in a month at most. Besides, Young Master Xiao has already arranged a place for her, so she is just trying to scare her and does not dare to cause anyone's death.
People like Chen Jinhua are the kind that respond to hard tactics and not soft ones.
After Nanny Qian used this trick, she became obedient and no longer made a fuss. She did whatever she was told to do and learned the rules obediently.
Actually, it doesn't matter if she figures it out. Now she has no one to rely on. If she leaves this dental business, she will continue to wander around. She is not young anymore and has no knowledge. She can only wait to die, and no one will collect her body when she dies.
A few days later, people from the Lu Mansion came. Lu Yao sent someone to buy Chen Jinhua and arranged her to live in the backyard of the Lu Mansion. From then on, she was responsible for washing clothes in the Lu Mansion.
With her was a maid. The Lu family was large and wealthy, with nearly forty people in the whole mansion.
The good news is that I will have a place to live and food to eat in the future.
The bad news is that from now on, all the clothes of everyone in this mansion will have to be washed by these two.
It is almost the coldest time of the year and the water in the well is icy cold. Winter is probably the most difficult time of the year.
…
Everyone must be curious about where Chen Jinhua’s daughter Jiang Qiaoqiao went, right?
Back to the topic, ever since Jiang Qiaoqiao had the miscarriage and the scholar refused to marry her, her reputation was completely ruined and she was later kicked out of Xianhe Village.
Chen Jinhua's brothers and sisters-in-law from her natal family were not easy to deal with. Life was not easy for the mother and daughter after they returned home, and they were looked down upon every day.
Jiang Qiaoqiao's reputation was ruined, and no respectable family would want her anymore. Chen Jinhua's brother and sister-in-law disliked her because she only knew how to eat food every day and didn't know how to work. She was clumsy and good for nothing.
When she was at home, because Jiang Sui was around, she was spoiled by Chen Jinhua from childhood to adulthood. She couldn't carry anything on her shoulders or lift anything with her hands, and was very pretentious.
So, Chen Jinhua's brother and sister-in-law thought about selling her to a landlord as a concubine. After all, Jiang Qiaoqiao was still young and had some beauty.
Chen Jinhua was certainly unwilling, but she had nowhere to go. In the end, she was unable to resist and Jiang Qiaoqiao was sold to a landowner in the county as a concubine.
That landlord had many concubines. When she went there, she was reluctant, despised his age, and pretended to be noble.
It just so happened that her little temper attracted the attention of the landlord, who doted on her for a period of time. During that time, the landlord would make beautiful clothes and jewelry for her whenever he was happy, and feed her with delicious food and drinks every day. Jiang Qiaoqiao immediately fell for him and accepted her fate.
