Chapter 517 Selling Oneself
Aunt Ni grabbed Ni Ruiniang's hair and cursed: "You are a rip-off bitch. You haven't helped your family get even a tael of silver, and you dare to stop your parents from getting rich. I'll beat you to death for making money!"
Uncle Ni was also very angry with Ni Ruiniang. He slapped Ni Ruiniang in the face and said, "You little bitch, if you dare to harm your own father and mother, I will beat you to death today!"
Ni Ruiniang was severely beaten by them, and she didn't fight back at first. But when she heard them scolding her so harshly, she cried out, punched, kicked and bitten Aunt Ni and Uncle Ni.
"Who taught me how to do this? It's all because of you two money-hungry bastards who instigated me." Ni Ruiniang cried and scolded Uncle Ni: "You can't do your own business and make life difficult for your family. I want to You want to use me to control Wanjia, but now that Wanjia has failed and I have lost my health, you will despise me because you are not human!"
Then he scolded Aunt Ni: "You hurt me like this and you also scolded me for having broken shoes and being unable to give birth. Is this how you see me in your heart? OK, OK, now I can clearly see how ugly you are, and I will sever ties with you today!" "
"Ah! You are the only one who still wants to sever ties with us. I tell you, there is no way. Tomorrow I will go to the dental shop in the county and find someone to sell you. I need to earn back the money the Wan family owes the Ni family."
The three Ni family members were fighting in the alley, and Haizi, the yamen servant from Silifang, shouted next to them: "Stop, if you don't stop, I won't be polite."
But the three people of the Ni family were beating you to death, and no one paid any attention to him. They let him shout and wouldn't stop.
Although Luo's father was good at boxing and kicking, he did not go to help. He was afraid of being bitten by the Ni family. He asked a man watching the excitement: "Lao Cai, what happened to the Ni family? Why did they start fighting at the back door of Wan's house?"
Lao Cai was the shopkeeper of a snack shop in the town. He often went to Gu's Restaurant to buy seasonings and spices. Seeing that it was Luo's father who was asking questions, he told him about the fight between the three Ni family members.
"The Ni family couple were too greedy. They wanted to take advantage of the Wan family's house before it was sold, so they could come in and buy some valuable things. How could they have met Ni Ruiniang? This Ni Ruiniang seemed to have changed her temper. Instead of protecting her parents, she informed them on the spot. Haizi and Kangzi opened the door to Wan's house and dragged them out."
"The Ni family hated Ni Ruiniang so much that they started to scold her as soon as they left the door. If they couldn't scold her, they would start beating her. Kangzi had already gone to Si Lifang to call for help and was expected to be back soon. Let's continue watching the show and leave Ni alone. Family, this family is not a good thing anyway."
Ni Ruiniang came to Wanjia because she wanted to get her own things. Her clothes, shoes and bedding were all in Wanjia. Although they were not good things, she was poor, so it would be good if she could take them back.
But she was stopped by Kangzi and Haizi. When she was begging them, she heard the movement in the house and immediately informed Kangzi and Haizi.
After hearing this, Father Luo and the others shook their heads. This family has really had enough.
Gu Dafu was a little angry. The Ni family really didn't treat their daughter as a human being. If his sister Mei was still alive, he would definitely not beat her like this.
"Stop! Stop it!" Lao Kong hurried over with his men and hit Uncle Ni directly with a scabbard knife.
After a few bangs, he beat Uncle Ni until he was in pain and let go. He raised his foot again and kicked Uncle Ni over. He said to Kangzi and Dasheng who came over, "Tie up the Ni family and his wife and take them to the county government office." .”
Aunt Ni panicked when she heard this and wanted to run away. After being tripped by Kangzi, she twisted her hands and tied them up.
Aunt Ni shouted: "It's unfair. We didn't do anything. We just came to Wanjia to take back the things belonging to my Ni family. Don't arrest us."
As she spoke, she started crying again and wanted to accuse Lao Kong and the others of arresting people randomly. Lao Kong blocked her mouth with a linen ball and cursed: "She is really a stupid and bad cunning woman. She was caught on the spot and still dared to accuse people unjustly." . You husband and wife, please listen to me. You went to the sealed house to get something privately. This can no longer be treated as theft. You have to be taken to the Yamen and let the adults go to court for trial. May you be lucky."
Aunt Ni cried out after hearing this. Uncle Ni wanted to beg for mercy, but it was too late. Lao Kong didn't give him a chance to speak, so he directly sealed his mouth with a linen ball and took him aside.
As for Ni Ruiniang...
"Did you discover them?"
Ni Ruiniang nodded and kept crying. She was hurt by the words Uncle Ni and Aunt Ni scolded her.
Lao Kong said: "In that case, Si Lifang won't arrest you. But everything in this house has been confiscated. You can't get your things. Go home quickly."
Going home?
Ni Ruiniang couldn't stop crying. Does she still have a home?
Her biological father and mother all despised her and publicly called her a shabby shoe who had been slept with and was incapable of giving birth... Her biological brother even accepted Wan Li Fang's money and pushed her down, causing her to have no child. I can't give birth in this life.
Would she return to a home like that?
Ni Ruiniang finally went home, but she didn't stay home long. After she went back and beat her brother violently, she went to the county dental shop the next day and sold herself.
She told everything about herself: "My body is broken and I will never be able to give birth in this life. My family is poisonous. No one cares about my life or death. I have no worries. You can sell me wherever you want." become."
A woman from a dental shop bought her for half a tael. Although the price she paid was cheap, she found a good place for Ni Ruiniang to work as a maid for a rich family's wife.
Because Ni Ruiniang could not give birth, she was very loyal. Relying on this loyalty, she became a confidant nanny all the way. Not only did she survive the subsequent war disaster, but she also adopted a servant as her grandson when she was old, and lived a good life. It’s the day when someone is dying.
After Uncle Ni and Aunt Ni were taken to the county, they each received ten slaps and a fine of five taels of silver.
The couple had to sell two acres of their land in order to pay the fine. After that, the family's life became even more difficult.
After they paid the fine, they remembered that Ni Ruiniang was missing. The Ni family searched for Ni Ruiniang for a while, but gave up when they couldn't find her. But when life was hard, Aunt Ni would scold Ni Ruiniang, saying that without her, she would lose the three taels of money she earned from selling herself.
…
It was only later that several families heard that Ni Ruiniang had been sold into slavery. They went to the county town on the day Ni Ruiniang sold herself to see Wan Lifang beheaded.
There was a big fuss about Wan Lifang's beheading, and many people went to see it. This was what Ming Shaoqing wanted.
Ming Shaoqing said to County Magistrate Xu: "Zou Youlian's case has had a great impact on the village. It needs some blood, otherwise the people will follow suit in the future. What's the point?"
The fact that Wan Lifang was beheaded really suppressed some people with bad intentions in the county and made them dare not do evil again.
The day after Wan Lifang's death, village chiefs and villagers rushed into the county town to hear the trial.
There are too many people involved in the case of selling men for labor service. The old officials of the town's Silifang, the old village chiefs, and the old village chiefs all committed the crime. However, Ming Shaoqing was worthy of being the young minister of Dali Temple. He had already read the files and clarified the case clearly. He cut the knot quickly and sentenced Zou Youlian's case of selling men for labor service.
