"You damn girl, why do you think so? There's no one here anymore. Is it possible that you're still here to be a mother-in-law to a few sluts?" Ms. Wei had already recovered. Although half of her front teeth were broken, her speech was a bit leaky, but she didn't speak at all.

It didn't affect her speaking speed, "You're still young, you can get married again when you go back..." She hasn't consummated the marriage yet, she's still a young girl, and now that she's grown, the price will definitely be much higher.

Chu Xia suddenly showed an excited expression: "Really? That's great, but I signed the deed of sale, so you should quickly give me money to redeem me. I've asked, twelve taels of silver will be enough."

, there is no need to go to the Yamen to report, just give me the money and I can leave..."

The three members of the Jiang family were dumbfounded. What? You want to redeem someone?

"Mom, dad, eldest sister, what's wrong?" Chu Xia pursed her lips, "The contract you signed with the Song family was a sales contract, not a marriage contract, so the redemption money is indispensable."

The laws of the Southern Tang Dynasty had strict regulations on the purchase and sale of human beings. Ordinary civilian families were not allowed to purchase slaves and maidservants. They could only buy slaves if they had achieved fame. For example, a scholar had one quota for slaves, a scholar had two quotas, and a scholar who passed the examination had four quotas.

quota.

Of course, if you have an official status, there is no limit on the amount. Even if you are a scholar and become an official, you can buy slaves in large quantities.

But for the rich, that's another matter, because they can buy slaves in the government.

In short, it is easy to do things if you have money.

There is currently no one with a good reputation in the Song family, so the original purchase of Jiang Pandi was not reported to the government and was a private transaction.

Private transactions are not protected by the government. To put it in layman's terms, if Jiang Pandi runs away and the Song family can't catch him, then they can only admit that they are unlucky. But if the Song family catches someone, they will be beaten to death. Jiang Pandi

Di could only admit that she was unlucky.

However, because she has a contract to sell her body, even if she runs away, she can only be a gangster. Moreover, if a woman runs away without money or power, the best outcome will be to starve to death, and the worst outcome will be to be caught and sent to prison.

A place like a brothel, so this is why Jiang Pandi worked hard and refused to run away for four years.

But now, as long as the Jiang family pays double the ransom as required, they can take the person away.

"I only got six taels of silver from selling you." Wei Shi screamed, "Why is it only twelve taels of silver now?"

"This is what you agreed upon when you made the deal, right? Anyway, I heard Song Laoer talk about the contents of the contract." Chu Xia looked at Wei with wide eyes, "Or are you planning to take me away? But do you think we

Can you escape from Dawang Village?"

Wei was speechless and couldn't help but look at Jiang Danian. If they couldn't escape, the consequences would be something they couldn't bear.

Jiang Danian coughed. It's okay to sell your daughter to make money, but how is that possible to pay for your daughter?

"Pandi, let's talk about this later." Mrs. Wei laughed twice, "Twelve taels of silver is too much, we have to go home to make up for it... We just came to see you, now let's see how you live.

It’s not bad, so we feel relieved.”

"I'm not doing well." Chu Xia suddenly pursed her lips, "I waited four years and ended up becoming a widow before I got married. I have three younger siblings. I probably won't be able to get married in the future. I'm only ten years old.

Seven years old, I want to go back, I want to get married..."

"Pandi, please stay well for now. We'll come back in a few days." Jiang Danian didn't listen to his daughter at all. While comforting Chu Xia, he took his wife and daughter away in a hurry. No, ran away.

"Mom and Dad, come back quickly and take me away..." Chu Xia called from behind.
