Anyway, my life is worthless, not as precious as yours, nor as wealthy as the Xue family.
"I'd trade my life for your reputation, for the future the Xue family is planning—I think it's worth it!"
Xue Mengyu never dreamed that the girl she thought was easy to control would have such a fiery temper.
Now that she's said everything, good or bad, nothing she does is right.
She and the Xue family valued Qi Mingyu's future, so they didn't care that he was currently poor.
If this lowly servant girl were to make a scene, it would be difficult for her to deal with her.
She feared that even if the Qi family was short of money and needed to rely on her family, they would step in to protect her.
After all, they had been so intense just now.
This lowly maid may already be carrying Qi Mingyu's child.
No matter how rich her family was, they were still just merchants, running a shrine shop that everyone considered unlucky.
In addition, she would let the maid consummate the marriage, thus losing her virginity and having another man's child in her womb.
She can't afford to gamble!
Despite her parents' doting on her, if she were to ruin the family's grand plan, she would surely be abandoned.
Furthermore, the unborn child will most likely end up being drowned.
Or her hair was cut off, and she was sent to become a nun...
After weighing the pros and cons, Xue Mengyu finally compromised.
Her face was somewhat ferocious, and even when she spoke, there was a hint of gritted teeth.
"Alright, I can give you silver and a contract of servitude."
However, before I give it to you, I want to watch you drink the contraceptive soup with my own eyes.
Zhao Xi didn't want to stay there a moment longer, and upon hearing this, she retorted sarcastically:
“I will drink contraceptive soup, but definitely not here.”
Don't worry, regardless of whether there are any bastards or not, I won't let it have a chance to be born.
What you cherish is, in my eyes, a disgrace.
Now, get your things ready right away, I'll grab them and leave immediately.
Xue Mengyu's expression changed repeatedly, and she felt an intense hatred in her heart.
In the Xue household, which servant didn't treat her with utmost respect?
Even if they were beaten or punished, they didn't dare to utter a sound.
Unexpectedly, she, who hunted geese all her life, would one day be pecked by them.
But now, she has no choice and no options!
Zhao Xi only walked to the table after Xue Mengyu had placed the indenture and the silver on the round table.
She kept a wary eye on Xue Mengyu, held her breath, and picked up the indenture, shaking it slightly.
She was afraid that Xue Mengyu would tamper with the contract and drug her while she was looking at it.
Having come this far, she didn't want anything to go wrong at the last minute.
Once she confirmed that the indenture was in order, she quickly put away the silver ingots.
Each of those silver ingots weighed five taels.
She needs to go to the government office first to have her slave status removed before she can decide where to go.
Going home is impossible.
Given the current situation, going back home would not only add another burden, but also make it difficult to save money.
It will surely be taken by her parents for her younger brother to spend.
Not only that, but having lost her virginity, she is also highly likely to be married off by her parents as a second wife.
As the eldest daughter, she felt that she had done enough for her family over the past ten years.
From now on, she will live for herself.
She has to find her own husband.
You should also keep some money for yourself, just in case something unexpected happens!
