"Okay, we want it!"
Jiang Wan quickly took out the money. The price was indeed not expensive, and she was too lazy to waste time.
The hawker immediately smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, happily accepted the money, and even said:
"There is a horse-drawn carriage seller and a tooth shop in front. The family in the back is the most affordable."
"Thank you!"
Jiang Wan touched the horse's head. The horse seemed to know that this was its new owner, and gave Jiang Wan a friendly glance.
The two of them followed the road directed by the hawker to a carriage shop not far away. Since the family had a large population, Jiang Wan naturally chose the largest carriage.
She bought it with twenty taels of silver, and the hawker also helped install it. Jiang Wan looked at the newly minted vehicle with satisfaction.
"Sister-in-law, you are so amazing!"
Song Jiuli couldn't put it down and touched the horse. Just as he was about to climb onto the carriage, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.
Jiang Wan noticed that she looked stunned and asked, "Li'er, what's wrong?"
"Sister-in-law, that girl is my former personal maid Xia Chan."
Song Jiuli stared blankly at the girl not far away. Xia Chan looked a little embarrassed. Jiang Wan followed her gaze and looked over.
Suddenly he met the man's eyes. The man was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Song Jiuli.
"Miss!"
She shouted and was about to run towards Song Jiuli, but was suddenly pulled back by the little girl next to her.
"Girl, you can't wander around."
"Miss, save me!"
Xia Chan yelled crazily. Jiang Wan noticed that Song Jiuli next to her was a little moved, but she remained silent.
Until Song Jiuli couldn't help but said: "Sister-in-law, can I go over and take a look?"
"Go ahead."
Jiang Wan pulled the carriage and stood there, watching Song Jiuli go away. She didn't know what the two of them said. When she came back, Song Jiuli looked disappointed.
"Sister-in-law, Xia Chan was sold to a brothel, and now..."
When the house was confiscated, all the servants were sold together, and it seems that the women were all assigned as prostitutes.
"She asked you to help her redeem her life?"
Jiang Wan had actually guessed the other party's request. For those who enter the brothel, this is her lifelong wish.
"yes!"
Song Jiuli lowered her eyelids, "Xia Chan and I grew up together. Although we are master and servant, we are better than biological sisters.
But now...I really can't help her. "
As she spoke, tears filled Song Jiuli's eyes, and Jiang Wan thought that if she had not saved Xia Chan, she would probably feel guilty for the rest of her life.
"This is the money your brother gave me. It's up to you whether you want to save me or not."
Jiang Wan was not from the Holy Mother, but the money in her hand belonged to the Song family, and she told it honestly.
As for the choice, it's not hers to make, it's up to Song Jiuli herself.
"Xia Chan said she wanted fifty taels."
Song Jiuli bit her lip. To her before, fifty taels might have been a pair of earrings.
But for her now, fifty taels is enough for many days.
"Yes, there is."
Jiang Wan handed her a banknote, "It's your own choice to save people, and you have to bear it yourself if anything happens in the future."
Jiang Wan couldn't guarantee whether people who entered the fireworks venue could maintain their original intentions.
"Thank you, sister-in-law!"
Song Jiuli clenched the banknote in her hand excitedly, "Just think of it as borrowing money from my eldest brother and sister-in-law.
I will definitely pay you back in the future, and I believe in Xia Chan. "
"Um."
Jiang Wan did not express any other opinions. If it were her, she might have saved such a child.
But she will not trust him wholeheartedly like Song Jiuli, because the human heart is always the hardest to figure out.
Song Jiuli walked away anxiously, not knowing what to say to the other party.
Soon after returning with Xia Chan and the little girl, Song Jiuli said hurriedly:
"As you know, this is my sister-in-law. The money that saved you belongs to her."
"Thank you, Princess!"
Xia Chan was so excited that she was about to kneel down, but Jiang Wan immediately stopped her, "You don't have to do this when you are away from home.
You can take us there to find someone who can take charge of the brothel. "
"Okay." Xia Chan quickly led them to the door of a brothel. She went in for a while and then came out with an old madam.
The madam's eyes were looking at Jiang Wan and Song Jiuli, which made people feel uncomfortable for no reason.
"Are you just here to help Xia Chan redeem her life?"
The madam held a handkerchief in her hand and stared at Jiang Wan with a smile, almost glaring at her.
"yes."
Jiang Wan frowned, gave Song Jiuli a look, and handed the banknote to the madam.
"This is silver."
"This Xia Chan is no better than others."
The madam carefully checked the banknote and said, "She is a servant sold by the sinner's family. Fifty taels of silver is not enough."
"You want to raise the price?"
Jiang Wan was a little angry. It was obvious that the madam had done this on purpose. She snatched the money back.
"Forget it, we just want to see how pretty she is. If you don't want to, just keep her."
She blinked at Song Jiuli. Although Song Jiuli didn't know why Jiang Wan said that, he still cooperated and turned around to leave.
Xia Chan shouted hurriedly: "Girl, girl..., don't leave!"
"Hey, hey, don't leave in a hurry."
The madam wanted to pull Jiang Wan, but Jiang Wan deftly avoided her. Her eyes fell on the old madam coldly, and the madam frightened him and retracted his hand.
"Okay, you can take the person away."
In fact, she only spent a few taels of silver to buy this girl, and her beauty was only average, so she just wanted to redeem her.
"Jiuli, take people away."
Jiang Wan handed the banknote to the madam, who smiled and said to Jiang Wan:
"The girl is pretty, why don't she come to our building and be a busker?"
"Bah, bah, bah, my sister-in-law won't come to your building!"
Song Jiuli scolded the old madam angrily, "How can you dare to persuade a good girl to become a prostitute?"
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, let's go."
Jiang Wan was too lazy to waste time here and took Song Jiuli and Xia Chan away.
The madam still stood regretfully at the door of the brothel, watching the carriage drive away.
"Then mom likes pretty girls. Princess, don't take it to heart."
Xia Chan spoke cautiously, fearing that Jiang Wan would be angry, and Jiang Wan would not make herself angry over such a trivial matter.
She bought a lot of food and daily necessities in the town, and then met Xiao Deng at the gate of the city.
Seeing Xia Chan, Xiao Deng was a little confused. Jiang Wan explained casually: "This is the person we just bought."
It can't be said that he went to a brothel to redeem himself.
"oh oh."
Xiao Deng didn't take it seriously, and everyone rushed towards the large army. Jiang Wan was driving the carriage outside, and Song Jiuli was warning Xia Chan from behind.
"Now my sister-in-law is the one who makes the decision in our family. You should respect her and don't do anything that goes too far."
"Don't worry, girl, Xia Chan will save it."
Xia Chan lowered her head in despair. In the past, when she was still innocent, she dared to think about the location of the backyard of the palace.
Now that she has come out of a brothel, she still dares to think anything wrong.
In fact, Song Jiuli didn't know that Jiang Wan had a good ear and listened to their conversation word for word.
But she pretended not to hear.
When returning to the main team, Jiang Wan seemed to see someone kneeling in front of Song Jiuyuan and the others from a distance.
