Farming: I dressed up as a widow and beat my parents-in-law violently

"They have already gone to the restaurant. After breakfast, should Auntie go to the restaurant first or to the county government office?"

"Go to the county government office first. The restaurant will only open in the morning. Don't rush. By the way, bring me the deed of prostitution under my pillow." Yan Xia just crossed the threshold and remembered that he hadn't taken the deed of prostitution yet.

Let Xiao Ji go get it while she walked outside Xiao Su Xiaoqing's room.

"Bang bang—"

Because the door is not as strong as a wooden door.

So just tap lightly.

"Here it comes -" Xiao Qing hurriedly opened the door. She was wearing her coat and just woke up when she saw it.

"I'm getting ready to go to the county government office. Let's get up and wash up and then go have breakfast. By the way, where's Xiao Su?"

The two rested in her courtyard last night.

Live in the same house.

"I don't know. She was nowhere to be seen early in the morning."

Xiao Qing's words had another meaning. Yan Xia was a little surprised and stared at her briefly.

"Oh, if you see her, call her to have breakfast."

Yan Xia didn't say much, turned around and went to the pavilion in the courtyard, where there was a mahogany carved round table with different flower patterns carved on the six curved legs. The carving was exquisite and looked like real flowers.

There is also a round stool between the two table legs, which can seat six people.

It's hot and she doesn't like to eat indoors.

From morning to night, almost all three meals a day are eaten out.

Breakfast was already on the table, a bowl of thick rice porridge, two plates of side dishes, and her favorite tea eggs.

Tea is expensive, so the tea used is naturally not good.

They are all loose tea leaves.

When brewed, it tastes like good tea.

Two tea eggs have been peeled and placed on the plate.

Yan Xia took a bite of the egg, a bite of the porridge, then picked up a chopstick and stuffed the side dish into her mouth.

Although it is light, it is particularly refreshing to eat on a hot summer day.

"I've met the master——"

Halfway through the meal, Xiao Su passed by with a basin. When she saw Yan Xia, she knelt down to say hello.

Because the basin was too big, I almost fell to the ground.

"In my house, you don't have to perform such a big ceremony every day. I feel uncomfortable. Also, where did you go to pack a big bucket of clothes?"

Because she was half-kneeling, Yan Xia was able to see clearly what was in the basin.

"This slave woke up in the morning and had nothing to do, so she just wanted to help the sisters in the house dry their clothes."

Yan Xia just finished eating. She put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth. "I'm afraid it's more than just drying the clothes. Okay, there are still many days to come. Stop working now. Put the basin here and go have breakfast quickly. I will take you to the county office later."

"It's the master."

When Xiao Su heard her words, she immediately put the basin on the ground and turned to the kitchen.

Yan Xia chuckled.

It's really straightforward.

At the end of the morning, the three of them left Yan Mansion together.

Walk to the county office.

The house is not far from the county government office, so there is no need to take a carriage.

After being more than ten meters away, Zuo Li stepped forward to meet him.

"Aunt Yan, why are you here at the county government office?"

"Xiao Li, let's go in first. It's not convenient to talk outside."

Yan Xia was not in a hurry to reply to him.

There were many people on the street, so she couldn't tell Zuo Li in public that the two girls had encountered bandits.

If the people heard it, wouldn't it scare them?

What should I do if I don’t dare to leave the city at that time?

"Okay, let's go in."

Zuo Li led Yan Xia and others to the county government office and sat down.

"Didn't I go to Jiangnan County the day before yesterday? Because the restaurant reopened this morning, I was in a hurry to get back from Jiangnan County at noon yesterday, so it was inevitable that I had to walk at night. Halfway through the carriage, I encountered bandits. These two I rescued the girls easily, they are from Ningzhou City..."

"......"

Yan Xia spoke like a storyteller for more than half an hour, and the content was as exciting as possible, attracting all the officials on duty at the county government.

From time to time, he would say, "What happens next, Shopkeeper Yan?"

"That's what happened. Xiaoli, please help me clarify Xiaosu's identity. She sold herself to me and will be mine from now on. As for Xiaoqing, I won't care about it."

Xiaoqing heard that Yan Xia had taken Xiao Su's deed of prostitution and looked at her in disbelief.

Then he turned his head and looked at Xiao Su.

Seeing that she didn't react, he poked her with his arm.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Su was a little confused.

"Come out with me. I have something to tell you." Without waiting for her to answer, Xiao Qing hurriedly pulled Xiao Su to the corner outside the door.

"She took away your contract? Are you stupid? Why did you tell her about the contract? You escaped from the bandits' den and broke into the gangster's house. What if she bullies you? Come on, our deed of sale is a death contract. If you don’t want to get rid of your slavery if you have the chance, are you stupid?”

Xiaoqing's face was full of hatred that iron could not become steel.

The two of them served Mrs. Bai together and slept in the same room every day, just like sisters.

Of course she couldn't just watch Xiao Su being fooled by Yan Xia.

"Did she trick her into taking the contract? Later, you can ask the official to ask him to help you get it back. After we got rid of our slave status, we pawned the bracelets, took the money to the matchmaker, and asked her to give it to Let's introduce a good marriage. Aren't our daughter's families looking for a good marriage all their lives? If you enter the Yan Mansion, you will be a maid for the rest of your life. You are really stupid. You are already twenty. If you are older, you will not even be a widower. I want you, I didn’t dissuade you about drinking medicine yesterday, you must listen to me about today’s matter, I won’t harm you.”

There is a jade bracelet on each of their wrists.

Because the size was too suitable and difficult to take off, and the sapphire was worth more than two taels of silver at most, the bandits looked down upon it.

I didn't take it away.

The more Xiaoqing talked, the more excited he became.

Without giving Xiao Su a chance to reply, he continued to educate her.

"I'm really pissed off by you. No matter how stupid you are, you can't be so stupid. That's a contract of betrayal. To put it bluntly, even if they beat you to death, you still have the contract to protect you. You can live with your head hung up every day. , Aren’t you afraid? Anyway, I’ve had enough of this kind of life. When I get rid of my slave status, I will find a matchmaker here, marry myself, and then give birth to a big fat boy and secure my position... ....”

Xiao Su couldn't listen anymore and interrupted her.

"Xiao Qing, please stop talking. I voluntarily gave the deed of betrayal to my master. She saved my life, so I should repay her. Moreover, my master is very good. She will not beat me to death, even if she does. I, I must have done something wrong. I know you have always wanted to marry a good man, but I don’t want to. Even if I don’t meet the bandits and go to Jiangnan County, I will not leave. Originally, I I plan to stay in the Bai family and be a nanny. What’s good about getting married is to serve people. I’ll serve the wife and get a monthly salary. I’ll eat well and wear warm clothes. What can people like us who have been maids get married? A good family, besides..."

Xiao Su pursed her lips, frowned her eyebrows, and took several deep breaths before she had the courage to continue.
