Chapter 144 We will help you
Su Rongrong frowned when she heard this.
Isn’t her mother with Su Ye, so how could she be in the hands of some old woman?
Baili Zheng saw her doubts and continued:
“The two men said that the old woman meant that your mother had a tough life and was unlucky in marriage and childbirth. All the family members were killed by her.
She was really scared and had no choice but to sell the person.
He also said that as long as they were strong and not afraid of being suppressed, they could buy it for a hundred coins.
He also said that your mother went a little crazy because of the great blow she suffered from the loss of her husband and son.
As long as they take good care of her and don't let her run away, nothing will happen.
By the way, the old woman also told them that your mother is very fertile. Less than a year after giving birth, she can get pregnant right away. "
Hearing this, Su Rongrong couldn't help but say, "Brother Zheng, why does it sound to me like this old woman is an acquaintance?
Otherwise, how did she know that my mother was fertile and could get pregnant less than a year after giving birth?
And what about Su Ye? What’s going on?
It's impossible that my mother finally escaped and then fell into the hands of this old woman, right? "
Baili Zheng didn't know either. What he was saying now were the results of the interrogation.
“I don’t know either! But I can find an artist later and ask those two to describe the old woman’s appearance.
After I draw it, see if you recognize it.
It's best to know her, so that we can get news about Su Ye from her as soon as possible.
If you don’t know him, I will have to send someone to check.
By the way, that old woman may have a grudge against your mother.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have told those two people that your mother isn’t too old, and asked them to work harder and try to have two babies in three years!”
When Su Rongrong heard this, she was completely horrified.
She wanted to ask something, but before she opened her mouth, Baili Zheng seemed to see through her thoughts and said, "Don't worry, your mother is fine and innocent.
The two men said that because they were strong and your mother was too thin, they were afraid that they would torture her to death, and since she would be alone at that time, they wanted to take care of her first.
Wait until you gain some weight before having sex.
But who knew that your mother was crazy and wanted to run away as soon as she got the chance, and she became thinner and thinner. "
Su Rongrong didn't care whether this was true or not, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she heard it.
She thought that Jinhong, Manman and others would like to hear such an answer.
"Brother Zheng, thank you for the portrait.
I have to take Manman back to the village today and move all the things that need to be moved here first.
Also, I want to buy a car, but I don’t know whether a mule or an ox cart is better. Do you know anyone who knows about livestock?”
Baili Zheng knew why she wanted to buy a car as soon as he heard it, so he replied readily: "Okay, I know someone.
Do you want to buy it today, or two days later?"
"I'm fine with either. It depends on when the person you know is free."
She was afraid that she would be traveling back and forth between Sujia Village and Lanxia County for some time in the future.
It is really inconvenient that my family does not have a car.
“Then I’ll go find someone now, and when the time comes, I’ll rush back to transport the things.
You can also learn how to drive a car on the way."
"it is good!"
After Baili Zheng finished talking to Su Rongrong, he left in a hurry again.
Su Rongrong came out of the study and just saw Liu Miao and Tao Ya hiding in the corner whispering to each other.
When she saw the person, her eyes lit up and she walked over quickly.
Liu Miao had already met Qi Jiaying. Seeing this person who was so thin and crazy, she felt very upset.
At this moment, she was telling Tao Ya that if there was a stall here after the New Year, she would come over to help.
Seeing Su Rongrong coming over, she said without waiting for her to speak, "Rongrong, you've come at the right time.
I told Tao Ya that you are setting up a stall after the New Year and I will come over to help.
When the time comes, you can let Manman go back to the village with you or go outside. After all, that girl is braver and more careful than me.
Although she is young, Taoya and I can feel at ease when she is around.
At home, you can rest assured with my aunt and Jinhong."
She didn't wait for Su Rongrong to answer and continued, "Auntie, in your current condition, how many days can you use one ginseng?
Is it true that the older the ginseng is, the better it is for her?"
After she finished speaking, she stuffed the personal allowance money she had brought with her into Su Rongrong's hand.
“My silver, you know, that’s all.
I know I can't help you, but you should take it first."
Seeing this, Tao Ya hurriedly said, "Rongrong, I have all my money at home.
I'll bring it to you when I get back.
You can use it first, and don't worry that your aunt can't afford the medicine, we will help you!"
Su Rongrong looked down at the purse in her hand, then smiled and stuffed it back into Liu Miao's hand.
“No need, Miaomiao, I’m still well off now, so you don’t have to worry about the money for my mother’s medicine.
Taoya can testify for me on this point!
As for the stall, we will do as you said and open it after the New Year.
I will pay Taoya the same salary as before, and she will be paid the right amount.
But by then, I may not be able to stay at the stall for too long, so I'm sorry to have to trouble you!"
When Tao Ya heard this, she waved her hands quickly and said, "No, no, it can't be the same as before.
My mother said that I shouldn't have taken this silver.
I'm helping you just to learn a skill, so why should I ask you for money?
Look at the county town, which apprentice doesn't work for his master for a few years for free before learning the craft?
In this way, for the first few years, I was just doing odd jobs and was not taught any skills at all.
And you taught me step by step, not to mention that the food and drinks are all better than when we were at home.
When I went back this time, my mother said I had gained weight."
Liu Miao, who was standing aside, didn't know how much money Su Rongrong gave Tao Ya this time, and just thought it was the two hundred coins agreed upon before.
Then he also said: "Tao Ya's words make sense, Rongrong, you don't have to give us money.
In the county town, your food and accommodation are all paid for by yourself. Now that you are learning a skill, how can you ask for more money?
You said you have enough money now, but that is only temporary.
You see, Jinhong will have to spend more than ten taels, or even more.
If you set up a stall, you have to pay taxes to the government.
Another thing is that this house requires rent every month.
In addition, your mother has to use ginseng every month.
And your aunt and the others are also relying on you...
Even if you are a good earner and have a decent financial situation, you cannot afford this.
From now on, there will be too many places to spend money, so let's save as much as possible.
Taoya and I are not really that much different from you.
If we learn your skill well, won't we be able to earn money ourselves if we need it in the future?"
Su Rongrong was deeply moved when she heard this.
They both said no, but there was no way she would really not give it to them.
Otherwise, they probably wouldn’t be able to explain to their families.
Even though Tao Ya said that her mother said she shouldn't take the money, she guessed that Tao Ya's mother must be very happy about it!
Besides, we are talking about the post-New Year affairs now. The stalls haven't been set up yet. There is no point in arguing about wages here.
We’ll talk about everything after the new year!
