Chapter 402 My Wife is So Wise
Mrs. Wang's hands trembled, and she felt sweat in her palms and her face looked gloomy.
She stared at Zhou Ruijia and asked,
"What preparations do you want to make? Do you also want me to release your bond?"
Zhou Ruijia was so frightened that she quickly waved her hands.
"Second Madam, that's not what I meant. I dare not. I will be Second Madam's for all my life."
At this point, she lowered her voice and said, "Second Madam, what I mean is, if the house is confiscated, do we need to hide something?"
Mrs. Wang smiled coldly, as if covered with frost and snow.
"My brother is the commander of the imperial guards. I already knew that."
"If it comes to that, everyone in the family will have to walk through the jail,"
"It's good enough to have a few sets of clothes left."
"You still want to hide, but you will only suffer more physical pain."
"At that time, living one day more or one day less would not make any difference. The only thing I was afraid of was that I could not die and had no way to live."
Mrs. Wang spoke slowly, but every time she spoke, Zhou Ruijia's heart and face would beat a few times more, and she was trembling with fear.
Please don't let this happen!
But if such a thing really happened, as a slave, I would just be sold from one owner to another. What difference would it make?
……
Outside the second gate of Jia's house,
Hua Zifang, running with sweat all over her forehead, came to see Xiren.
"What's wrong? Is something wrong, sister?"
Xiren held a small bundle in her hand and handed it to her brother.
"Brother, here is some silver I saved."
"What if something happens to the Jia family? If I am sold, you can buy me back!"
After saying this, Xiren's eyes were filled with tears.
How could everything change so drastically in just a few days?
Hua Zifang pinched the bundle with his hands, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"What? Is it real now?"
"Why don't you go and ask Madam for help now? Aren't there only kindhearted people in the mansion?"
"You said your wife has been a vegetarian and chanting Buddhist scriptures for many years, and she is the kindest person."
"Wouldn't it be better if I redeemed you now?"
Xiren smiled sadly and shook her head.
"That's impossible. Madam won't issue anyone's indenture right now."
"Madam is kind-hearted, but this kindness is because I can serve the Second Master."
"If I don't have this function anymore, then what's the difference between me and an ordinary maid?"
At this point, Xiren felt very sad. Her desire to be strong and to win had been extinguished.
After all the fighting, what did you get?
Seeing her sister so sad, Hua Zifang also looked unhappy.
"What do you mean? Now Master Bao has set his eyes on another girl?"
"That's not the case," Xiren waved her hands repeatedly.
"Master Bao now only cares about books. He doesn't care about any other girls. They are just objects!"
"Oh! I thought something was wrong!"
Hua Zifang breathed a sigh of relief.
"That means Master Bao has made progress!"
"Even if something unexpected happens to the Jia family, as long as Second Master Bao works hard, he will have a bright future."
"You followed him through all the hard times. Think about it, when he becomes prosperous in the future, will he treat you badly?"
"I heard that Master Bao is not an ungrateful person."
At this point, Xiren didn't want to mention Jia Baoyu anymore. She asked her brother Hua Zifang,
"What about the Lin family that I asked you to keep an eye on last time?"
"Stop talking. There are at least half a million people eyeing the Lin family right now. They are crowded together all day long. I can't even get to the front."
Hua Zifang tucked the bundle under her armpit and gestured with her hands.
"But I really saw that Qingwen!"
"Last time you mentioned Qingwen, I felt like it sounded familiar, but I couldn't remember where it came from."
"Now that I remember, that Qingwen has become so majestic."
"The head shopkeeper Qingwen has opened a Qingwen Brocade Shop in the downtown area."
“Business is booming!”
Every time her brother said something, Xiren's face darkened a little. When Hua Zifang finished speaking, Xiren felt that her face had merged with the night.
Her hands trembled a few times, and her voice trembled a little as she said to Hua Zifang,
"Brother, if you have time, please help me keep an eye on Qingwen. Also, regarding the redemption of my body, once you are sure, you can come and buy me when we are ready to sell me."
"If you haven't sold it, don't even mention redeeming it."
After saying this, Xiren closed her eyes and a tear rolled down from the corner of her eye.
Qingwen is now rich and powerful, so she can redeem herself.
Isn't she just a woman who runs a small business?
If the family can't make ends meet, who knows where he'll sell himself to?
I am getting older and older, and I have lost my virginity. No family would accept me, so I have to do manual labor.
It would be better to just stay like this and serve Baoyu, and you can also get a reputation for being loyal and righteous.
With Master Bao around, I believe that even if Qingwen hates herself, she will not do anything to her. After all, Master Bao was really good to her back then.
When she heard that her sister had decided to continue following Baoyu, she knew that she would have to sell herself off.
He was also somewhat happy.
After all, it would be difficult for me to redeem it.
What kind of family should she be married into? How can she live an ordinary life after being used to a rich life?
It’s better this way, follow Baoyu for the rest of my life!
Since it has been finalized, Hua Zifang didn't stay any longer.
He carried his bag and left under the moonlight.
……
When he got home, he opened the bag and saw
The white silver, the golden nudes, the various jewelry...
Hua Zifang was frightened. Her sister had struggled a lot!
Young ladies from ordinary families can’t compare to her!
Xiren went back step by step, following her own shadow.
The same moon shines on hundreds of people. The brighter the moon, the more terrifying the shadows.
……
"Please use those empty boxes," Jia She said to Mrs. Xing, staggering on his crutches.
"Tomorrow we will open the warehouse and find my mother's dowry. It will be huge. You won't have bought these boxes in vain. My wife is a wise person."
"I knew I had bought a bunch of empty boxes in advance."
As he spoke, Jia She pointed here and there with his fingers, counting "one, two, three, four, five..."
Mrs. Xing's eyes were full of mockery and confusion. This was really the old master from the past.
You want to escape but you don't want to give up your money. If you really want to escape, then just take the two banknotes and run away. Is this about life or money?
When it comes to greed and snobbery, I am nothing compared to him.
While she was watching Jia She counting the boxes, she winked at Wang Shanbao's family.
Just make the necessary preparations, as a few people from my mother's family are coming.
And from now on, I will follow my best daughter,
Yingchun is promised to the Lin family, so what else do I have to worry about?
If the house is divided again, the old man will run away.
I……
The days started to shake.
Mrs. Xing had never felt that her future was so bright.
Until Jia She said again,
"When the time comes, you will come with me and we will find a beautiful place to live in seclusion."
