Chapter 170 The Yang Family's Sin
She asked what they did at home.
"We do everything at home, collecting grass for the pigs, feeding the chickens and ducks, cooking, and making clothes."
"I...I can embroider..."
Qu Jingyao looked at the slightly older girl next to her. She was the oldest and most outstanding looking one among them.
"Okay, from now on, you will change your name to Xiuchun, and your sister will be Xiuxia. You will all learn embroidery in the mansion. As for the three of you, change your names to Yunxiu, Yunqiu, and Yunzhu. I will make arrangements for you when you return to the mansion."
Qu Jingyao stretched out her hand and pointed at them one by one. Several people looked at each other blankly, not knowing what to say.
At this time, Baiguo, who was outside the carriage, came back and gave orders to several people in a cold voice.
"Why don't you thank the master quickly? From now on, you must call yourselves slaves in front of the master."
The slightly older Xiuchun cleverly pulled her sister to kneel in front of Qu Jingyao.
"Thank you, Master."
"Thank you, Master."
Qu Jingyao nodded slightly and asked everyone to sit down.
Baiguo handed several indentures to Qu Jingyao.
"Master, the indentures of these people have all been signed."
"Well, let's go back to the village."
Baiguo lowered the curtain and whipped the carriage towards the city gate.
The carriage was swaying along the official road.
When passing a small village, Xiuchun's expression changed slightly, and the two sisters looked in that direction reluctantly through the car window.
"Which village are you from?"
The two sisters were startled, then nodded with red eyes.
"Is there anyone else at home?"
Xiuchun didn't expect her master to ask this, but she still answered truthfully.
"Reply... reply to the master, we still have mother and a brother at home. Our father died a long time ago."
Hearing her tone of reluctance, Qu Jingyao said softly, "Then their mother and brother at home should be very good to them, right?"
As soon as she said this, the two sisters could no longer hold back and knelt down in front of Qu Jingyao and kowtowed violently.
"Please, Master, please save my mother. Grandpa and grandma said that after selling my sisters and me, they would marry my mother to the butcher in the next village. That butcher has already beaten three of his wives to death."
Qu Jingyao was suddenly stunned. She didn't expect that the two sisters were always worried about their mother...
"How do you want me to help you? And why should I help you?"
"Please, Master. Xiuchun knows that you are a kind-hearted person. You bought us because you didn't want us to end up in that brothel.
My mother used to be one of the best embroiderers in town, but ever since she married Daddy, she has been bullied by Grandma and Auntie all day long. After Daddy passed away, they became even more unscrupulous. I’m afraid…”
When Qu Jingyao heard Xiuchun's words, she casually asked Xiuchun if her mother's embroidery skills were good.
"Yes, it's very good. In the past, many people came to my house to ask me to embroider things for them. Later, my mother got injured and could no longer continue embroidering for a long time. That's why grandma disliked our family even more."
When Qu Jingyao heard this, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes, and she asked Xiuchun to lead the way to her home.
"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master. I... your servant will lead the way right away."
The two sisters kowtowed heavily to Qu Jingyao, quickly turned around and walked out of the car, came to Bai Guo's side, and carefully pointed in a direction.
The carriage slowly drove into the small village.
Xiaoshi Village is not a big village with only about ten households, but it is indeed very poor.
At this time, angry shouting and crying were heard from the Yang family courtyard in the village.
This scene happened so often that the neighbors were no longer surprised. At first, some people tried to persuade them, but the old woman from the Yang family was a sharp-tongued woman.
She would stand at the door of anyone who tried to persuade her and curse them. The villagers were quite dissatisfied with her, but no one wanted to mess with this family of scoundrels.
"Listen, it's started again. That girl's mother also had a miserable life. Her husband died early, and she had to raise three children alone.
I have to work like a slave for the Yang family, but I have been in poor health in the past two years and have lost my value.
Fortunately, that old lady Yang is now asking to sell the girl every day."
"I saw Old Man Yang taking his two granddaughters out today, but he came back by himself."
The couple looked at each other and felt that something was wrong. They might really be sold.
"Hey, what a sin!"
The woman stepped forward to persuade her mother-in-law not to get involved, otherwise the Yang family would really...
Qu Jingyao's carriage stopped outside the Yang family courtyard.
The curious neighbors around were attracted.
"Oh, who is this important person from the Yang family? He actually came in a carriage."
As soon as he finished speaking, Baiguo lifted the curtain of the carriage and the first people to get out were Xiuchun and Xiuxia.
When the people around saw that they were the two granddaughters of the Yang family, they all stepped forward to ask the two children what was going on?
"Whose carriage did you take back here, big girl?"
"It belongs to my master. My grandfather sold us sisters."
Xiuchun looked at the familiar faces around her and her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
"Go in and take a look. It seems your mother has been beaten again."
When the two sisters heard this, they turned around and looked at Qu Jingyao who was slowly getting off the carriage, their eyes full of anticipation.
"Go."
Qu Jingyao said in a soft voice.
The two sisters nodded heavily, then held hands and ran towards the yard.
"Mother, mother..."
"You bitch, I'm telling you, you have to marry me today, whether you want to or not. I've already sold those two money-losing pieces, so don't worry about them anymore."
Old man Yang pointed at his daughter-in-law who was slumped on the ground with a sinister look on his face.
"Bang" the door was suddenly pushed open.
Old man Yang and his wife saw their two granddaughters who had been sold running back.
He was so scared that he stood up quickly, pointed at the two sisters and started yelling and cursing.
"Why are you two running back here? You've already been sold to someone else. If you sneak back and cause trouble at home, I'll beat you to death."
Old man Yang took off his shoes and threw them at the two sisters without asking any questions.
Old Lady Yang standing by also had a gloomy look in her eyes, looking at the two sisters with a mean look.
"Dani, Erni, you're back. Woohoo... Mom thought I'd never see you again."
The mother, her two daughters, hugged each other and burst into tears.
When the shoes in Old Man Yang's hand were about to fall on the mother and daughter, they were blocked by his grandson.
"Grandpa, what else do you want to do? Do you really want our whole family to die?"
"Pah, you bastard."
Old Lady Yang slapped her grandson in the face quickly.
Seeing that the eldest grandson of the old family is going to propose in two days, these two money-losing guys came back. Isn't this asking for trouble?
Just as Old Man Yang was about to attack again, Qu Jingyao's cold voice came from outside.
"Who dares to move my people?"
The Yang family all looked towards the door, only to see Qu Jingyao, dressed in a purple dress and with a stunning appearance, slowly walking in, emitting an irresistible aura.
