On the way back, Ding Azhuang also decided that he would try his best to take care of the old lady in the future.

But I didn't expect that the old lady passed away after they left, and Ding Azhuang acted as his son to perform filial piety.

On the way back, Mao Xiaosui was thinking that the old lady might not be able to let go. She had met the person she wanted to see and apologized, so she went to see the person she wanted to see...

Ding Pingshun went directly back to the breeding farm, and Ding Ping'an and others did not follow him in the end.

The door of the shop was open. When he opened it, he found Qin An lying on the sofa in the shop again, everyone was asleep.

Li Ankang went up and whispered in Qin An's ear. Qin An was frightened and looked at them over Li Ankang, "Back?"

Several people sat down and Li Yunshan took out the papers in his arms.

Qin An read it over and nodded, "It hasn't been changed." Then he wrote Li Yunshan's name on it, and Li Yunshan pressed his fingerprints to finish it.

"Is there any business in the shop?" she asked.

Qin An shook his head, "There was a shop in the town that wanted 200 skins, but they didn't want them because they were too expensive. The shopkeeper of the tavern came over."

There was no rush at the pub, and a few people went home first.

There was a lot of dust in the house after not living in it for a few days, and it was already evening after just cleaning it.

Mao Xiaosui cooked some frozen dumplings and then went back to the house to sleep.

He slept until dawn, and it was snowing outside again. The door of Li Ruyi's room made a scratching sound.

She opened the door and let Xiao Huihui out. Li Ruyi was still sleeping soundly on the kang. Mao Xiaosui went in quietly and lit the stove. When Li Yunshan swept away the snow in the yard, she prepared the meal for Li Ankang. Just came out of the room.

Mao Xiaosui went to wake Li Ruyi up and scrambled eggs and cabbage to make steamed buns in the morning.

After the meal, several people went out and walked in when passing by the medical clinic. The old doctor already knew her and asked, "How many more things do you want?"

She nodded and added, "By the way, take a look at my son. He only eats and doesn't grow."

The old doctor waved to Li Ankang, checked his pulse and pinched his arms and legs, and finally said, "It's okay." Then he went to get some food for Mao Xiaosui.

After coming out of the medical clinic, a few people wandered around the stalls on the street and bought two cans of sesame oil.

Entering the alley, he saw Widow Qian at the door of his house. When he got closer, Mao Xiaosui saw that she seemed to have new injuries on her face. He thought she had been beaten again, so he asked, "Auntie, what's wrong?"

Widow Qian looked around and asked her in a low voice, "Can we go in and talk."

Mao Xiaosui let the two children go back to the house. When they sat down, they saw Widow Qian rubbing her hands all the time, looking around but not speaking.

"Tell me." Mao Xiaosui asked again.

Widow Qian then said, "I want to borrow some money."

Mao Xiaosui almost guessed it and said bluntly, "We don't know each other well enough to borrow money. I just hired you to work and the money has been settled. There is no need to blame me for your family's troubles."

"I can work for you." Widow Qian said immediately and urgently, "I...I can write an IOU."

Mao Xiaosui shook his head, "I know your family is in trouble, but it has nothing to do with us, and your troubles are not caused by us."

"I beg you." Widow Qian suddenly knelt down and cried bitterly. "They want to sell my daughter, I beg you." As she said this, she began to kowtow.

Mao Xiaosui stood up and hid, saying unhappily, "Rather than begging someone who has nothing to do with you, you should beg the person who sold your daughter."

"They want money, they want money... I used to only get two taels per month. Twenty taels, I really have nothing to do, there is nothing I can do..." Widow Qian cried hysterically, "That's my life, what should I do?" Live..."

Mao Xiaosui sighed, "Even if you give them money this time, they won't stop there. They will only push for more. How capable are you? How long can you protect them? Twenty taels this time, what about next time? Or give it to me?" You won’t want any more after buying these twenty taels?”

Widow Qian fell to the ground in despair, obviously knowing that it was impossible.

Mao Xiaosui: "Unless they are willing to sign the contract, they will eventually be sold. You can't protect them. No matter what they decide, you will compromise."

"The reason why you came to me is because you can't borrow money from others, because everyone knows that this money cannot be borrowed. If you borrow it, it will be gone."

"What should I do, what should I do..." Widow Qian cried.

"Sell it yourself. At least you can choose a good family." Mao Xiaosui suggested.

Widow Qian shook her head, "They are still so young..."

"Then take them and hide."

"We haven't separated, we can't leave."

Mao Xiaosui reminded, "You have no other choice. Your two daughters were sold. Do you think you can survive?"

Widow Qian said nothing and sat on the ground for a long time. When Mao Xiaosui wanted to help her, she left without saying a word.
