Rebirth of farming for a living

Chapter 749: 1 point of regret

The two brothers are not too young anymore.

But he never got married.

It's so miserable now because their mother passed away a few days ago.

My seriously ill mother passed away, leaving behind a pile of debts.

When the two of them failed to pay, the creditor emptied the house of their belongings and occupied their house.

It's just that after calculation, I still owe the creditor five taels of silver to pay back.

But the house is gone, the land is gone, and creditors come to collect debts from time to time.

The creditor also wanted to sell the two of them, but since they were the creditors, they must have known each other before.

Although I also occupied houses and other things.

If you sell people, things will go too far.

The two of them also wanted to work as coolies, but if they didn't have enough to eat, how could they have the strength to carry big bags?

The contractor shook his head when he saw them.

Relying on the help of their old neighbors, the brothers managed to survive this winter.

There was really no way to survive, so the two of them decided to sell themselves out.

Because of this, a fierce quarrel broke out between Mao Tou and Mao Dan.

The boss said, keep the second child.

The second child said, keep the boss.

The two argued endlessly.

He was about to starve to death.

The green hills that are left are not afraid of running out of firewood.

It's better for both of you not to suffer any more and sell them all in order to survive.

Surnames are not very important when it comes to living.

It's a pity that the two people who finally made up their minds found that the price offered by Yaxing was shockingly low!

Both of them sold it, but it was not enough to pay off the debt.

Even if you want to live, you can't abuse people like this!

Oh my god, is there still a way to survive?

Huang San knew the two of them at that time.

He also felt sorry for the two of them.

Huang San felt that filial people would not be too bad, so he helped him twice.

Nothing good, just some ordinary food.

It's a pity that when they saw that he had dealings with Mao Tou Mao Dan, the creditors turned to Huang San for debt!

Huang San is kind, but he can't be taken advantage of.

His family doesn’t need anyone.

You can't just pay off the debt and still take these two healthy people home, right?

My wife must not be anxious with him.

Not only that, all the creditors found Huang San.

Huang San didn't dare to help the two of them anymore.

For that matter, Mao Tou and Mao Dan didn't feel any resentment at all.

On the contrary, the third brother and the third brother still call each other affectionately.

Of course, this brother didn't call me in vain.

Li Qiuyan said that he wanted people to farm the land, but Huang San immediately thought of them!

Moreover, the problem of leaving the same surname that Maotou and Maodan have been struggling with can also be solved.

There is a difference between long-term employment and selling oneself.

Selling one's body means selling oneself into slavery. Life and death depend on the master's family. Of course, one's surname must also follow the master's family.

The children born will be slaves for generations to come.

As for long-term workers, they don't have to sell their lives for money. They only need to take care of food and shelter, and some low wages are enough.

Admittedly, it was more cost-effective to sell oneself into slavery.

However, relatively speaking, long-term workers still have a certain degree of freedom.

Huang San had told Li Qiuyan all this before coming.

Li Qiuyan also thinks it's feasible, but he just needs to see the person first.

Of course it’s okay to look at people.

No, Huang San brought him here.

But according to what Li Qiuyan said, he didn't say he was looking for a permanent employee at the beginning.

Still talking about buying people.

When they heard that these two girls were the owners who wanted to buy people, Mao Tou and Mao Dan became visibly nervous.

Li Qiuyan coughed twice: "My family is not rich. I bought people to do farm work. Farm work is very hard. What do you want?"

The two nodded at the same time.

Is it hard to do farm work?

Of course it's hard work.

But it is even more difficult to live without a fixed place, not enough to eat, and with people chasing debts.

"I don't know, I wonder how much money we get for selling ourselves?"

Mao Tou boldly asked Li Qiuyan.

"Just follow the market price, four taels."

The market price is naturally more than four taels.

In fact, all the boys in Fucheng were sold for seven taels of silver.

But that's after training, and the cost of dental surgery.

Considering that Li Zhong's family of three only spent ten taels of silver, Li Qiuyan felt that four taels was enough.

Of course, she wouldn't admit it with a bad heart. This was a test.

As soon as the price came out, Maotou was stunned.

The price is pretty good.

You know, the price given to them by Yahang is two or two.

They also felt that even if both brothers were sold, it would still not be enough to repay the debt, so they refused to go to the dental shop.

Although Li Qiuyan's price was high, he still had to sell both of them...

Just sell it, there is no other way.

Mao Tou and Mao Dan looked at each other and then stepped forward to kowtow to Li Qiuyan.

That's all. If you pay back the money earlier, you won't be chased for debts, and you can live in peace, then you can rest assured.

Thinking of their dead mother, Mao Tou and Mao Dan's eyes turned red.

Previously, others, including my own mother, had advised their brothers not to undergo treatment.

The two of them still have their days to live.

But, that’s my mother.

It was an egg that was divided into two halves for their brothers, but the mother couldn't bear to take a bite of it herself.

How could the two of them bear it?

Although it is true that both people and money are lost at the moment.

But I feel at ease and have no regrets.

But, I still can’t keep my last name.

There is a little bit of regret, really, just a little bit.
