Lin Guang looked at him and felt a little sad.
Although this child has only been with them for more than half a month, he is indeed a good child.
No matter how tiring the work was, he always rushed to do it and never complained. He also ate the least at meals and refused to ask for even a little more.
How could such a good child be treated like this?
Qiaomei had recovered by now, and her tears began to flow again. She struggled to see the wound on her brother's back.
"Brother, does it hurt? Qiaomei is so useless. She can't protect you."
Chen Shuxu shook his head lightly, "Brother is fine, don't think too much, it doesn't hurt, it will be fine in two days, stop crying, you will feel uncomfortable soon."
As they were talking, Zhao and the others had already caught up in a hurry.
"Huh~ That's so satisfying! Those two have been taken away by the government. It's a good thing you didn't live with them, otherwise who knows what kind of life you would have had."
Let's go, let's go back first. Don't worry, you two brothers and sisters, there will always be a way out. If you really can't get out of this, just continue to follow us, there will always be a bite to eat for you."
Chen Shuxu didn't say much. It was not appropriate to talk on the street now, so he took his sister and followed the Lin family back to the city gate.
After Zhao paid the money for the grain, she started talking about Chen Shuxu.
Lin Feng felt somewhat speechless and sighed, "This world is so big and full of wonders. There are actually families like this.
Mom, you're right. It's a good thing they didn't go. If they had gone, I don't know how their lives would have turned out!"
Zhao also looked down on such a family, "Who says it's not? Anyway, I don't think they are a decent family.
"Little Bell's words are the most accurate. Just thinking about someone who can do such harm to his own parents sends a chill down his spine."
Chen Shuxu listened quietly, but was thinking about what to do next.
They now have only two choices: either he does hard labor to take care of his younger sister, or he sells himself to be a servant.
However, his younger sister's illness was also a source of worry for him. He was not afraid of hard labor, but he felt that his younger sister would suffer if she followed him.
If you sell your body, it's okay if you meet a good master, but if you meet a bad one, you may be forced to do nothing.
His best option now is to sell himself to the Lin family. He doesn't want money, just to provide them with food.
The Lin family is kind-hearted and will never treat them harshly. That's enough.
So he gently put Qiaomei down, turned around and knelt down in front of the Lin family.
The Zhao family and others were just talking about the scene of the couple being sent to the authorities when they were interrupted by their kneeling.
"You kid, why are you kneeling down again for no reason? Get up quickly! You're still injured!"
However, Chen Shuxu insisted on kneeling, and two or three people were unable to help him up.
"Grandma Zhao, Grandpa Lin, please let me kneel. I have something to ask of you."
Lin Changshu had lived for decades, so he naturally knew what he wanted to say. He sighed and said, "Okay, go ahead."
Chen Shuxu felt a little ashamed. He had been so kind as to lead them along the way, but now they were relying on him.
To be honest, he felt guilty and even felt that he was shameless, but he had no other choice.
It wouldn't matter if he became a beggar, but he had a younger sister who suffered from heart disease, and he couldn't afford to gamble.
The Lin family is like his last life-saving straw.
As long as he can get through this period of time, he is willing to spend the rest of his life repaying the Lin family!
"Grandma Zhao, we want to sell ourselves to the Lin family! We don't want money, and we don't want wages in the future. As long as we can provide for my sister and me, it's fine.
I'm willing to do any job! From now on, my younger sister and I will be the servants of the Lin family. You can assign any job to us!
We can definitely do it, please ask Grandma Zhao to buy us!"
Zhao had guessed this from the moment he knelt down, so she wasn't surprised at all.
Before she could speak, she was pulled aside by Sun, "What are you doing? Are you going to agree?"
Zhao looked at her helplessly, "What should we do? Can you just watch and do nothing? After all, they are just two children!"
Sun glared at her angrily, "Don't come on, you think you're being kind? Don't you think about it? We're fleeing! Fleeing, do you understand?
We are all struggling to make ends meet, yet you are so generous. Although it is free, we have to feed two mouths after all.
That young man is fine, but he has a sick sister to take care of. How much work can he do? This is obviously a losing business!"
Of course Zhao knew about it, but she couldn't just throw it aside and ignore it. In fact, she also had her own plans in mind.
The eldest grandson Lin Wen loves reading and will definitely take the imperial examination in the future.
Chen Shuxu is about the same age as Lin Wen and has good character. Now they know each other well.
If her eldest grandson graduates in the future, she will feel relieved to have Chen Wenxu as his servant.
As for Qiaomei, she is rather weak now, but with the help of the miracle doctor, she will gradually get better.
She is about the same age as Xiao Lingdang, so wouldn't it be perfect to keep her as a playmate for Xiao Lingdang in the future?
This will save the time when all the grandchildren go to school and leave Xiao Lingling alone at home and bored.
So, in the final analysis, she was also doing it for her own children.
Otherwise, if I really wanted to buy two servants, it would cost at least ten taels.
This can be considered as the best of two worlds, as it not only saved the brother and sister, but also saved money for the family.
Zhao whispered her plan again, and Sun was obviously not as disgusted.
Her eyes swept over the brother and sister and landed on Qiaomei, who was crying loudly.
For some reason, she always felt that the girl was not a good person.
But this girl hadn't done anything after all, so she couldn't say much and could only let Zhao make the decision herself.
Lin Changshu was speechless after seeing them talking for such a long time. The child was still kneeling here!
"Oh, that's enough! You're talking endlessly, and these two kids are still kneeling here!"
Zhao slapped her thigh and hurried over. "Oh, I forgot, forgot. Hurry up and get up. We agreed to this. You will stay at the Lin family from now on."
Although Chen Shuxu knew that the Lin family was kind-hearted and would not refuse, he only breathed a sigh of relief when he actually got the confirmation.
He helped his little sister stand up and said, "Grandma Zhao, please help me find someone to write a contract to sell my body.
Since you're selling yourself, you have to follow the rules. You write it, and we'll put our fingerprints on it."
Zhao was stunned for a moment. "We haven't seen this indenture yet, so we don't know how to write it."
Jiang Xinian came forward when he heard this and said, "In that case, let me write it. I've seen it. Wait a moment."
