Chapter 233 - 162: Bullying by Power_1
The elder sister with grass in her hair, upon seeing Liang Jinzhao, Song Huaijin, and others dressed splendidly, knew they could definitely afford to buy her. She then kowtowed and cried out to them, "Please, young master, buy me, please show mercy and buy me. My younger brother is so sick, he’s about to die, and my mother and younger sister are nearly starving to death, please buy me."
The younger sister also followed suit, kowtowing and pleading, "Please buy my elder sister, so we can get treatment for our brother, he’s close to death. You can buy me as well, I do a lot of work and eat very little, please."
An older servant named Song said, "Sigh, we always encounter this kind of thing as soon as we step out. If we keep being so soft-hearted, there won’t be room enough in the house for all the servants."
The implication was not to buy.
Song Huaijin cursed, "What the hell does it have to do with you, slave?"
That’s what he said, but he stopped short of actually saying he would buy them. Although he was a significant heir of the Song family, he still didn’t feel much belonging here, after all, this home was under his step-grandmother’s control, not his own family in Capital City.
Liang Jinzhao also found himself in a tough spot, as the Song Mansion was only his wife’s family, and it wouldn’t be proper to just bring a maid home. If it really wouldn’t work out, he thought of buying her and sending her to the Wuxi Tea Building.
While they hesitated, Qian Yixiu remembered that her family was actually looking to buy a servant, and her stepmother had specifically asked her to purchase a maid. The sisters, despite being emaciated, had delicate features, and seemed quite clever from their words just now.
She then spoke, "My family is looking to buy a servant. However, we live in the countryside, would you be willing to go there with us?" After a pause, she added, "There’s no problem with getting enough to eat, but if you’re expecting to eat meat and wear silk every day like the wealthy, that’s not going to happen."
Then she quietly asked Qian Yeejin, "Brother, what do you think of them? If they’re suitable, let’s buy them."
Qian Yeejin looked at the two sisters and nodded, "If you like them, sister, then buy them."
