"What happened?" Xu Qing frowned and led the man into the room. "Don't cry. Speak slowly and make it clear."

"Second sister, today grandma and her mother went to buy oil, but they didn't see her at all..."

Xu Qing had a sister named Xu Yue, who married to an oil shop in the next village a few years ago. Because she had nothing to do, she was often beaten and scolded by her husband's family, and lived a miserable life.

Xu Ying said that six months ago, Xu Yue was finally pregnant. As a result, the family still let Xu Yue work in the fields on a hot summer day. A month ago, Xu Yue became red and had a miscarriage, and her child failed to survive.

Since then, Xu Yue has been ill in bed. The day before yesterday, the doctor went to see her and said that she would not be pregnant. As a result, the family not only retired Xu Yue, but also sold her to the kiln!

"Sold to the kiln?" Li Jinmei was shocked, "what a beast! They can do this kind of thing?! At the beginning, everyone said that this family was not a good thing. They asked your grandmother not to marry Xu Yue. But your grandmother wanted to be greedy for one or two silver coins, which made Xu Yue get beaten or scolded when she married. What a sin

Xu Qing asked coldly, "what do grandma Xu and your mother say? Do they care? "

Xu Ying wiped her tears and said, "grandma said it's all elder sister's life. I know they are not willing to take money to redeem her."

At the thought of her disgusted face and mother's indifferent expression, Xu Ying's heart is colder than the river water in the cold winter of September.

Xu Ying grabbed Xu Qing's hand and said, "I've made it clear that the elder sister was sold into Chunfang building yesterday. Maybe we can go now. I have five taels of silver to take out! I just don't know if it's enough... "

"Just leave it to me." Xu Qing placidly patted Xu Ying's hand, "I'm going to redeem Xu Yue now. Don't worry about the silver."

"Oh, you can't go to a place like that!" Li Jinmei said to Xu Qing, "let me go. I'll go with your brother-in-law. I have a way!"

Xu Qing's appearance is so good. Li Jinmei is not at ease when she goes to Chunfang building. She is old and thick skinned. It's better for her to redeem people.

Finally, Xu Ying is left at home to watch hui'er. Xu Qing, Li Changting, Li Jinmei and Cao Laoliu drive the ox cart to the town.

Li Jinmei and Cao Laoliu come to the Chunfang building where Xu Yue was sold. Now it's not dark, and Chunfang building hasn't started business. Li Jinmei and Cao Laoliu tell the man who opened the door that they are here to redeem people, and they put some coppers in for the man.

Although the man thinks the money is too little, seeing Li Jinmei and Cao Laoliu dressed like countrymen, he can only complain and impatiently ask the steward to come.

"Boss, I just know that my sister is not as good as the brute. I bought her. I pity that she just gave birth and is still weak. Please pity my sister and let me redeem her!" Li Jinmei cried, wiping her tears.

Steward is headache, do not know how to deal with Xu month, now someone to redeem Xu month, just solved her a trouble.

"How much are you going to pay for it?" Asked the steward.

Li Jinmei took out her purse from her pocket and carefully handed it to her: "I have brought all the money at home. There are three Liang silver in total. Do you have enough?"

The steward took the purse and roughly counted the pieces of silver and copper in it. He looked disgusted: "only three liang of silver?"

When she bought Xu Yue, she also spent three Liang silver.

"Not enough? This hairpin on my head, let's see if it's worth a few dollars? " Li Jinmei pulled the hairpin off her head.

As soon as the steward saw, the hairpin was only copper, but the style was pretty good, so she reluctantly accepted it.

"Come with me."

The steward never does business at a loss. There's a reason why he agrees to let Li Jin and Mei Hua redeem Xu Yue.

"This How can this happen? "

Li Jinmei looks at Xu Yue in the Chaifang, and her anger rushes to her head from the bottom of her feet. If Cao Laoliu didn't hold her hand, she could hardly help yelling at her!

Lying on the firewood pile, Xu Yue's face is pale, and her clothes are messy and ragged. What's more, Xu Yue's three fingers on her right hand seem to have been broken alive, showing a distorted posture, blue and purple, black and swollen.

"I asked her to pick up the guest yesterday, but she didn't follow me. If she angered the guest, the guest broke her finger. Please take her away quickly."

The steward left with a cold face. In this case, Xu Yue had to ask for a doctor, which cost a lot of money. Even if she was dead, she would have to spend a lot of money. Now someone can take Xu Yue away, which really saves her a lot of trouble.

Cao Laoliu patted Li Jinmei's hand placidly: "let's leave here first."

Li Jinmei takes a deep breath, takes off her coat and puts it on Xu Yue. Cao Laoliu carries Xu Yue on his back. They leave from the back door.

Xu Qing and Li Changting are waiting at the entrance of the lane. They are a little worried about whether Li Jinmei can make it.

However, after waiting for a long time, Xu Qing was relieved to see them coming back with a man on their back.

"Go to the hospital." Li Jinmei said.

Xu Qing thought that Xu Yue's experience would not be good, but he did not expect that it would be so miserable."Before Xu Yue got married, I can still remember that she was very good-looking at that time. A girl in shuilingling was just five years old, and she was so haggard..." Li Jinmei choked and said, "that family is not a thing! Your grandmother and your mother are not things! It's not that the family is so poor that they can't even afford to eat. Why should they abuse their daughter like this? "

Li Jinmei is also a mother. If her daughter turns out to be like this, she has to die of heartache.

Xu Qing is to understand why Xu Ying is so worried about her marriage. The original owner was forced to jump into the river at the beginning, not all because of her "Kefu".

Xu Yue was placed in the room of the hospital for treatment. Except for the doctor and Li Jinmei, Xu Qing had to wait outside.

Half an hour later, the doctor came out and said, "I've got her finger back. Fortunately, the bone is not broken. It's a great fortune in misfortune. As for the future recovery, it depends on the situation. In addition to her fingers, she also has many bruises, all of which are skin and flesh injuries. It's good to keep her. I think she's in a coma. She hasn't eaten for many days. Please cook some rice soup for her

Xu Qing thanks and borrows the kitchen from the doctor.

When Xu Yue was fed medicine and rice porridge, it was already dark.

Xu Qing is a little worried about hui'er at home. Xu Yue doesn't need so many people to take care of her here. Xu Qing asks Li Changting to send Li Jinmei and Cao Laoliu back, and then come back to accompany her. Li Jinmei and Cao Laoliu go back to the village, and she's not very worried about it at night.

Li Jinmei is sure to go back. There is a little plum waiting for her at home.

"Don't worry. I'll get hui'er to me when I get back." Li Jinmei warned, "don't walk around here, just stay in the hospital, you know?"
