Soul Travel: I was bought by the fierce man in the village to farm

Mao Xiaosui didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he left the West Alley.

Qin An was a little surprised, "You are quite thoughtful. What you said before seems to be right."

"Just a wild guess." Her nervous heart was beating wildly when she just said that, and she couldn't help but look back.

But there was one thing she didn't understand. Bai Heng seemed to have agreed just now, but for some reason he regretted it.

They couldn't do business at Nanxiu Pavilion, so they asked again at other shops, but they were stuck on price and quantity without exception.

Just as Mao Xiaosui was about to sigh, she was tapped on the shoulder. Li Yunshan comforted her, "Don't be discouraged. Our initial target was not in the county, so this result is not surprising."

Mao Xiaosui naturally knew that. He lowered his head and looked at the clothes of the three of them, wondering, "Is it possible that our clothes are too worn?"

It is impossible for Li Yunshan to be handsome even if he is wearing a sack.

Qin An said, "Have you noticed that the people in the county are very xenophobic?"

"It seems so." Mao Xiaosui thought about the situation just now. Most of them started to chase people away impatiently without waiting for them to finish speaking.

She muttered, "No wonder Zhang Qing and others said that business in the county is not easy."

The sun was about to set at this time, and a few people found a small restaurant to eat. After the waiter finished naming the dishes, Mao Xiaosui asked, "Does your restaurant have rabbits?"

The waiter’s reply: “We don’t have it in our store.”

Li Yunshan asked her, "Do you want to do rabbit meat business?"

She shook her head, "I'll stop by the butcher shop later and ask if they accept dried rabbit meat. There's not enough fresh manpower at the moment. It's okay in winter. It's too far away today. Let's start the rabbit skin business first and then think about rabbit meat. Qin An I also said that the county is very xenophobic. If you really want to clean up stalls here and there in the future, you have to ask clearly so as not to offend anyone."

Li Yunshan nodded.

After eating, they went to buy the so-called spicy white, which was not a radish but was bigger than a radish.

Mao Xiaosui broke off a little and tasted it, and found that the taste was quite strong, especially astringent.

Li Yunshan looked at her wrinkled face and couldn't help laughing, and asked, "Do you still want to buy it?"

"purchase."

Although it's not good when eaten raw, it's okay when fried.

He asked Qin An to carry a sack back, and he and Li Yunshan went shopping elsewhere, buying three jars of vinegar, two large bags of brown sugar, and several bags of snacks and preserved fruits.

After shopping, the basket was almost full. When she passed a butcher's shop, she went over and asked, "Do you collect rabbit meat for drying?"

The meat seller was a fat aunt who didn't look particularly good and didn't reply to her.

Mao Xiaosui asked again.

The fat woman struck the wooden board with the knife in her hand and shouted, "No."

Mao Xiaosui was not angry and said to Li Yunshan, "Let's go."

On the way back to the inn, they didn't encounter the butcher shop again, and they didn't go looking for it.

After dinner the next morning they drove back to town.

Qin An drove the mule, she and Li Yunshan drove the carriage.

This was Mao Xiaosui's first time riding a carriage. It was faster than a cart, but it was also very rocky. The only advantage was that he didn't have to be exposed to the wind or sun.

After the test drive for a while, they stopped and waited for Qin An. They waited for him to come up before heading off together.

Qin An was singing an unknown song, but Mao Xiaosui didn't understand a word of it. Seeing that he was in a good mood, he started chatting casually, "Are you married?"

"No."

Mao Xiaosui: "What did your family do before?"

Qin An: "Business."

Before she could ask Qin An again, he said, "Don't ask, there is nothing left. I am the only one left in the family."

After saying this, Mao Xiaosui didn't dare to ask further questions, for fear of poking his sadness somewhere.

Li Yunshan said, "We won't be curious after you tell us, so we can rest assured."

Qin An sighed, but there was nothing he couldn't say. "It's not a good thing to be too poor, and it's not a good thing to be too rich. The Qin family in the capital... you don't know, I have an older brother above me, and many younger brothers, but I was born by a concubine, and he has always disliked me."

"I just act like a playboy and drink wine all day long. My eldest brother also wants me to do the same. My father has always looked down on me and ignored me, but I am his son after all, and my eldest brother is afraid of me. Just to steal his property, I was plotted out of the Qin family."

"After I was kicked out of the Qin family, they targeted me everywhere. I couldn't stay any longer, so I went to Jiangnan. When I was in Jiangnan, I heard that the Qin family had been ransacked."

"Do you think this is retribution?" Qin An still looked carefree and seemed not at all sad about the Qin family being ransacked.

"Where's your mother?" Mao Xiaosui asked him.

"She was killed by the eldest lady a long time ago." Qin An said, "I have no impression of her anymore."

"My mother didn't come from a good background either. She was brought by my father from the flower house. She got a lot of favors because of her good looks. She turned into a demon herself but couldn't defeat the eldest lady, so she strangled her to death."

Mao Xiaosui found that he was extremely indifferent when talking about his own mother, as if that person had nothing to do with him.

She wondered, "Is your mother treating you badly?"

"I was forced to compete with my eldest brother for favor. He beat me and scolded me at every turn, and pricked me with needles..." After a pause, he said with a smile, "My father used to favor her, but then she became bloated and older. My father had a new love, and he even began to dislike her background. My mother felt that I had ruined her..."

"Why was the Qin family ransacked?"

"Not only the Qin family, many people were killed in the capital that year, but also many high-ranking officials in the court. I heard that it was related to the salt case. I don't know whether it is true or not."

Mao Xiaosui was surprised, "Is this thing fake?"

Qin An said, "Who knows, I have really been a playboy for more than ten years, and I have never interfered in the Qin family's affairs, but the wealthy businessmen in the capital are not as prosperous as you think, and they want to use the court's affairs to make business I am independent, but I don’t want to be controlled by the people in the court, but there is no such good thing in the world."

"Then why did you run away from Jiangnan to this little place?"

"Because I can't stay in one place forever..." He added, "My gambling skills were learned during those days."

"Xiao Jiujiu, I know the things about casinos very well. Whenever I stay in a place for a short time, I will leave. As for why I was bought by others..." Qin An said "tsk" "I was cheated when I was gambling in Liaozhou. There was a scammer in the gambling house, I was beaten to death, and I was rescued by Ren Yazi. I was penniless at the time, and he forced me to sign a deed of sale in order to avoid being caught and sent to jail."

"How far is Liaozhou from here? How could you be brought here?" Mao Xiaosui was surprised.

"They don't just stay in one place." Qin An said, "What's more, Liaozhou is not far from here, Su County is just past it."

"This guy probably thought that I could write a few words and he was being polite to me." As he spoke, he couldn't help but clicked his tongue. "I owed two taels of silver at that time, and he forced me to sign a deed of betrayal." .”

"This heart is so evil. You can give me forty taels for two taels of silver?" Mao Xiaosui suddenly became upset and asked, "What did your elder brother do to you? Can you be kicked out of the Qin family?"

Qin An sneered, "Sent his woman to my bed, do you think this is a big thing or a small thing? What's more, the Qin family has many sons, and I am from a humble background. It would be the same with or without me."

"It's my fault too. I was drunk all day long and didn't wake up. I didn't even know I was being plotted against." He didn't seem to care.

Mao Xiaosui didn't understand even more, "Since you still have many younger brothers, what does he want to do with you? Can't others still share his property when you are gone?"

"Because of my mother, she used to get in trouble with the eldest lady because of her favor. My eldest brother was pushed into the lotus pond and almost drowned when he was a child. It was all caused by my mother."

Mao Xiaosui said "Oh" in a long voice, "If your father doesn't love you, then your mother doesn't love you?"

Qin An snorted, "So what? I'm the only one who survives in the end."

Mao Xiaosui didn't think he was cruel, but thought he was really lucky.

Then he asked worriedly, "Then your identity is innocent now?"

Qin An rolled his eyes at her.
