By chance, Hou Xiangqin met a neighbor who lived on the next street. When she heard her explain that she was single, she didn't know whether she believed it or not, but she decided to introduce her to a husband's family anyway.
He said that the family had an older bachelor who was anxious to get married, and agreed to give more betrothal gifts, perhaps 100,000 yuan, and asked Hou Xiangqin to consider it.
Hou Xiangqin was not completely stupid. She had seen something similar before in Western Province. They said they were introducing the in-laws, but in reality they were selling the people. The old bachelors often lived in remote mountains, and once they got married, they would never be able to leave.
But she pretended not to understand. After inquiring carefully, a not-so-kind thought came to her mind.
The man was also a smart person. He noticed Hou Xiangqin's thoughts and kept lobbying her to marry Hou Xianglan.
Hou Xiangqin didn't agree at first, but later when she saw Hou Xianglan squandering such a large sum of money, she couldn't help but think about it.
The two sisters look exactly the same, even their ID photos are the same. As long as the business does not involve fingerprints, they can handle it alternately.
If Hou Xianglan is no longer around, I can withdraw all the large sum of money she left behind using her ID card.
In this way, all the money belongs to you.
Thinking of the amount of money, Hou Xiangqin was so anxious that she couldn't sleep at night.
But Hou Xianglan is her biological sister after all, and it was her sister who protected her and raised her since she was a child. It was her sister who pulled her out of that quagmire.
Hou Xiangqin was struggling internally, but after much thought, she finally suppressed the idea.
But a few days later, when she tried to persuade Hou Xianglan to save money as she would have to rely on this to make a living in the future, she was blocked by the words "It's my own money, I can spend it however I want."
Even Hou Xianglan was trying to persuade her not to take the money, saying that she was just a temporary nanny to help look after the children, and it was impossible for her, as an older sister, to support her for the rest of her life.
After the people left, the string in Hou Xiangqin's heart broke.
She went to her neighbors again and agreed to their proposal.
Unfortunately, that family did not agree to take the child, and there was no one who needed a daughter at the moment.
Hou Xiangqin's mind flashed with what Hou Xianglan said in the morning. Finally, she gritted her teeth and agreed to the condition.
If you don’t want it, then don’t want it. It’s just a child, why can’t you deal with it?
So that night when Hou Xianglan came back from outside, she drank a glass of water handed to her by her sister and lost consciousness.
After confirming that the man had lost consciousness, the neighbor brought a strong man over, tied him up, put him in the car, and took him away overnight.
Hou Xiangqin hid in the dark and saw everything clearly.
After the person was taken away, Hou Xiangqin received 100,000 yuan, which made up for the part of the savings that Hou Xianglan had lost during this period.
Seeing the numbers in the bank card, Hou Xiangqin finally felt that the money was hers.
The money is yours, and the child is yours too.
Thinking that all this money was exchanged for the child's mother, Hou Xiangqin was not in a hurry to get rid of Wei Mian.
After she no longer needed to be jealous, she became much calmer and slowed down her pace to raise her child in this small courtyard.
However, underneath the calm she thought she was in, there was actually no calmness.
Hou Xianglan was hanging out outside every day and hooked up with a few idle hooligans. They didn't know that Hou Xianglan had been sold, but they were just wondering why she hadn't come for a long time.
So he found the small courtyard and saw Hou Xiangqin teasing the child inside.
The two looked exactly the same. At that time, Hou Xiangqin was in her early twenties, had never given birth, and was young and pretty.
Of course she was startled when she saw the person breaking in. Seeing that she pretended not to know him, the other party thought she was acting and simply cooperated with her in a forced sale.
He even felt that it was not enough, so he called all the brothers he brought with him.
After that, a few thugs came here frequently, and Hou Xiangqin's nightmare began.
It was then that she realized that not long after the two young girls arrived here, they had been targeted by local thugs. The thugs' families had connections in the police station, and many of their evil deeds were suppressed.
Hou Xianglan discovered this and went out to look for them every day in order to find a supporter in this place.
If I get together with someone I can talk to, or become his/her lover, no matter whether it will last long or not, at least I will be able to live a much better life here.
At least some of the ruffians didn't dare to come over, and the ugly old bachelor didn't dare to hang around her.
Unfortunately, Hou Xianglan never imagined that one day she would be sold by her own sister.
After Hou Xiangqin found out, she felt like a beast. Her sister had paid so much for their future happy life, but she could not see anything because of jealousy.
In addition, the way her neighbors looked at her became more and more strange, and Hou Xiangqin felt that it was becoming more and more dangerous in this place.
One night later, she took a ride on a kind passing cart and escaped from the small county town.
Thinking of her sister's past sacrifices, Hou Xiangqin hugged Wei Mian tightly in her arms.
No matter how much she regretted it, she could not buy her sister back. Hou Xianglan must know that it was her who did it. If she came back, there was no possibility that the two of them would except to fall out.
But because she felt guilty towards Hou Xianglan, Hou Xiangqin decided to help her raise the child and raise her as her own daughter.
As for Hou Xianglan's money, she didn't dare to touch it for the time being. She planned to spend it after she found a suitable place to settle down.
Unfortunately, fate did not let her go, because the Hou family came and wanted to kidnap her and take her back in exchange for a betrothal gift.
Seeing that Hou Xiangqin had given birth to a child, the Hou family was very disgusted and wanted to throw the child away, but Hou Xiangqin refused to do so.
She wanted to go back at first, but she accidentally heard her cousin who came to kidnap her and take her back say that her mother wanted to marry her to the stupid son of a rich family in the next village, and that the family was willing to pay a dowry of 500,000 yuan.
My cousin also said that the idiot in that family liked to beat people and had killed two of them before, but his family was rich, so if one of them died, he would just marry another one and give more dowry.
Hou Xiangqin was terrified after hearing this. She knew that going back would be like falling into a wolf's den, so she negotiated with her mother.
She can give money, even 600,000 yuan, just to prevent them from taking her back.
She also said that she was the mistress of a rich man and the child was his. She was just looking for a place to hide because the original wife came to her house and beat her.
She said that when she left, the rich man gave her 700,000 yuan and asked her to find a place to live temporarily, and that someone would come to pick her up soon.
Hou's mother was very tempted by the amount of money, but she was hesitant to believe it until she saw the money.
Hou Xiangqin even promised that if she gave birth to a child for a rich man, he would definitely be willing to spend money to support her in the future and send money to her mother regularly.
