NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 5 Alone
A trace of interest flashed in the eyes of the old bustard, and he twisted the handkerchief around his fingertips and said tentatively, "Although these two look like they are from poor families, the one inside looks like he has read a book."
For women to study, that was a treatment reserved only for powerful families. In the past, the girls they bought were ignorant, or had strong personalities and no education like the spoiled women.
Lao Wang nodded repeatedly, "It is indeed a serious purchase, and there is also a deed of sale signed by their family. The one inside is the widow whose husband disappeared, and the one outside is the daughter of a butcher. She has been killing pigs since she was a child, and has a rough personality."
"It doesn't matter, she looks quite fair, and after a little training and training on her body, she can still make all those gentlemen docile." The madam raised her eyebrows proudly, and her eyes paused on Zhou Xiaoyuan, feeling a little hesitant.
She gave Lao Wang a look, and they walked to the corner.
"My old lady has met countless people. Although the woman's clothes are shabby, her temperament is extraordinary. Just now she said something shocking. If you kidnap and traffick a woman from an official family, both you and I will lose our heads!"
Lao Wang was shocked, "You wouldn't dare even if you gave me ten courages!"
Seeing the sincerity in his eyes, the madam decided to carefully investigate Zhou Xiaoyuan's identity before making a decision.
"Place the two of them in another room." The old bustard ordered, and before locking the door, he did not forget to say, "Keep an eye on them, and don't let them hurt themselves."
There were only two people in the room, Zhou Xiaoyuan. She looked at the other woman and said, "Do you feel that the madam's attitude towards us is a little different?"
"Isn't she just interested in our ability to attract customers? Naturally, she has to keep a close eye on us."
The woman sneered.
, after finishing speaking, he went to the corner to close his eyes and rest.
Zhou Xiaoyuan still felt strange. She clearly saw the Madam and Lao Wang looking at her meaningfully after the exchange.
Before she could think about it, a wave of sleepiness hit her. Without holding on, she went to the corner to rest against the wall. The night was quiet except for the chirping of cicadas.
Zhou Xiaoyuan was sleeping very lightly, and the rustling sound in her ears became louder and louder, forcing her to open her sleepy eyes.
The woman in front of him was cutting the broken stick, deliberately exposing the sharp corner.
Zhou Xiaoyuan couldn't help but ask, "Are you going to fight out alone?"
The woman paused and nodded, "When the time comes, just hide behind me and seize the opportunity to escape if you can."
She wanted to trade her own risk for Zhou Xiaoyuan's safety.
Zhou Xiaoyuan's heart softened and she advised, "It's too hasty to escape now, we still have to think of a foolproof strategy."
"No, the children at home are still waiting for me, and they won't take good care of them."
The woman's hands were already bruised, red and swollen from the sawdust, but they still didn't stop.
Zhou Xiaoyuan was silent, that little face with red eyes from crying appeared in her mind, and her heart couldn't help but twitch.
"me and you togather."
Under the woman's surprised gaze, Zhou Xiaoyuan took the wooden bar from her hand and used the candlestick on the table to speed up the sharpening.
The two of them prepared their things and hid behind the door, one on the left and the other on the right. Zhou Xiaoyuan lowered her voice and said, "I will pretend to be unwell later, and you can take this opportunity to take down the guard who came in."
"it is good."
The guards at the door saw that the two of them were no more than weak women, so they took turns assigning one person to be on duty, while the other one was lazy and slipped away.
"Ouch, my stomach hurts so much. Come here quickly, your food will kill me!"
"
