Chapter 724: That Child Is Not the Night Family's Great
agitated as well. I heard her voice: "Smash! Smash it hard! Better smash that scumbag to death! If I could control my body right now, I would bite him to death! Since he won't give me back my life, le...The convoy came to a halt, and someone shouted at the woman who had stopped them: "Do you know who Fourth Sister is and dare to stop the carriage You're being utterly reckless!"Another person asked, "Who is this person Is she from our Ping County Where are her family members Hurry up and take her away!"The woman became agitated as well, and shouted loudly at Ye Wenyan's carriage: "I won't leave! Fourth Sister Ye, please save me. Except for you, no one can help me! Fourth Sister Ye, please save me! I am only nineteen years old, I don't want my life to end like this!"The heavy rain dampened some of her cries, but Ye Wenyan still heard them clearly. 。Feng Zhaolian let out a surprised "Eh" and then, "Does this count as stopping the carriage and crying injustice" Quan Qinghua lifted the curtain of the carriage window to glance outside, and then asked Ye Wenyan, "Do you want to speak" Seeing Ye Wenyan nod, she then shouted towards the outside, "Let her go, and let her come over" 。The man who was holding the woman back was taken aback, but he still let go. 。As soon as she was released, the woman rushed forward and clung to the carriage, urgently saying: "Is Fourth Sister in the carriage Please, Fourth Sister, save me!" 。My foster parents want to marry me off to an old man in his fifties, I don't want to get married, but no one can help me. 。"Sister Four, please, you're the only one who can help me!"
This woman was very thin, especially thin. Her face was sallow and her hands, which were clutching the carriage, had particularly prominent knuckles.
His hair was very thin and stuck to his scalp from the rain, clearly a sign of long-term malnutrition. 。That woman said: "Because they are sick and need money for medicine." 。That old man promised them fifty ounces of silver, and they decided to sell me. 。Sister Four, please save me! I'm not their biological daughter, I'm just their adopted wife. I was sold to them when I was eight years old. 。At first, they only gave my family three taels of silver, and it took three years to pay it all off. 。Their son fell seriously ill at first, and someone wicked suggested finding a child bride to appease the gods. But I hadn't even been in their house for five days when their son died. 。From then on for eleven years, I did all the chores at home. Because of those three ounces of silver, they treated me like a slave and wouldn't even give me enough to eat. 。This year I am nineteen years old. They have kept me at home to take care of them until they die, and they won't let me get married. I accept all of this. 。Now they want to sell me to an old man over fifty, just for fifty taels of silver! Fourth Sister, please help me. I'm willing to work and earn silver to pay for their medical expenses. I don't want to get married!" The rain outside poured into her mouth, but she didn't spit it out; she swallowed it directly. 。At nineteen, the age of a flower, she lived like a woman in her thirties, even with wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. 。 At this moment, Ye Wen suddenly thought, in his previous life, the five hidden families secluded themselves. Only the medical family, Feng Family, entered the world. Those who traded traded, and those who practiced medicine practiced medicine 。She knew Feng Yu Heng had saved many people, and she possessed a medical lineage passed down through generations, with the belief of healing the sick and saving lives. 。But when had her meridians ever been sought out for help She did indeed have a mission when she came to this era, but she had never thought that in her repeated lives, she would become, in the eyes of the world, a savior who alleviates suffering and stands up for the wronged. 。
Is she a kind person She was dazed for a moment, then quickly came to her senses and asked the woman in front of her: "Why do you ask me for help"
The woman immediately replied: "Because Fourth Sister, you are a great benefactor. You run a clinic in the capital city to heal the sick and save lives, and you even helped the people through the crisis when Earth Dragon turned over."
People who can do these things must all be great people! Besides, since you are able to take charge of Ping County, you will be the future empress. As long as you say a word, no one will dare disobey. 。"I'm truly desperate, that's why I stopped your carriage!" "Kind sir!" Ye Wenyan chuckled, she was really taking him as a kind person. It seemed some things she hadn't thought too much about had taken on a different image in the eyes of the common people. 。She asked the woman again, "Why not report this to the authorities" The woman shook her head. "Reporting to the authorities is useless. This is a family matter. Even if we reported it, the county magistrate could only send someone to mediate." 。"If my adoptive parents insist on not complying, the county magistrate won't be able to punish them! Besides, our family isn't from Ping County originally; we only moved here a few years ago. My adoptive parents... if the government gets involved in this, they will take me and leave Ping County to return to our hometown." 。I can't go back home with them, it would be even worse. 。"Fourth Sister, please help me!"
Fēng Zhāo Lián also came over at this time, looked at the woman for a while, and asked her: "Where are your biological parents"
Woman: "They've been dead for a long time" 。Initially, I sold myself to get three ounces of silver to buy medicine. As a result, it took three years for my family to come up with the money. My parents couldn't bear it and passed away. 。”
Night Wen blinked and asked again, "How was it when you sold them Was the silver paid in installments over three years"
"No! At first, it was agreed to be paid all at once, but since I've already come here, they said they didn't have money and only gave me one tael..."
"That's breach of contract!" Ye Wenyan laughed, patting her hand. "Don't worry, it's fine. They don't have the right to sell you. You don't even have to call them father and mother anymore." 。Because they breached the contract first that year, if this is true, your relationship with their family would be invalid. 。Since neither party has any relationship with you, why would they sell youHowever, based on your one-sided account alone, I can't make a judgment. So, let me ask the magistrate of Ping County to give you a verdict! Rest assured, I will send someone to take you to the county office, and I will also ask the magistrate to protect your safety. 。Before the case is finished, you will stay at the county office. You do not need to contact that couple again. 。Until the case is closed, if what you say is true, then you are free. 。" Really " The woman initially didn't believe it, but seeing Ye Wenyan really instructing those around him, she immediately became happy. "Thank you, Fourth Sister, thank you, Fourth Sister" 。Please rest assured, sister, everything I say is true, not a single lie. 。I bow to my fourth sister and thank her for her great kindness. 。"
She kowtowed, kneeling directly in the rainwater and respectfully knocking her head three times. " 。Jiedu held an umbrella beside her, waiting until she finished kowtowing before saying, "Let's go, I'll take you to the county office." 。Don't worry, since the master of my house has taken charge of this matter, the magistrate of Ping County is bound to handle the case properly. 。"That woman stood up and nodded: “The county magistrate is a good official. If it weren't for my foster parents threatening to report me and take me back home, I would have gone to beat the drums and appeal my case." 。"She was a little lost again. "Maybe I shouldn't have beat the drum, am I being wronged here"
Jiedu pulled her along. "Don't worry about whether it's right or wrong, now you can definitely be examined. Let's go!"
"Okay"
She nodded, and just as she was about to turn away, she suddenly remembered something. She pushed open the carriage door and ran after Ye Wenyan's car— "Fourth Sister, wait a moment! I have something to say!" The carriage stopped again. She tiptoed and leaned against the window, her voice a whisper, "Fourth Sister, I have one thing to tell you..." 。" Ye Wenyan let out a surprised "Eh" and leaned forward, "You" 。The woman said, "There is a young master in my family. It is said to be the great-grandson of Old Master Ye, but in fact, he is not at all. That child was brought back by Old Master Ye from outside the county. I saw him when I went out of the city to collect medicine..." 。grown man. You're over four hundred years old, why are you still holding grudges against your great-great-grandchildren"Shi Lifeng's red glow gradually faded, his face wasn't exactly happy, but it was...
