With tears streaming down his face, he kept kowtowing, "Master Qingtian, please forgive me, please forgive me. I know my sin, and I will never dare to sell my niece again."
He kowtowed while begging for mercy, as if he thought he was being investigated by the government for selling his niece.
Mrs. Cui was very proud. She glanced at Nanny Xiang and said to Nanny: "Guo Er, you don't have to be afraid. We are not the government trying to deal with you, but we want to ask you a few questions. Your niece is among those girls.
?”
She then pointed to the side and asked a few girls to stand up from behind the screen.
How could Guo Er dare to raise his head? He was sweating profusely and was soaked to the skin. He peeked at Manager Fu.
Manager Fu said: "You don't have to be afraid, just look at it."
Guo Er then plucked up the courage to take a look, but his eyes were blank, he was dizzy and couldn't see anything clearly.
Manager Fu had no choice but to let him drink a bowl of tea, and then look again. This time he could see clearly, and he saw that the girls over there were all very beautiful, just like the fairies in the paintings.
He shook his head.
Mammy Xiang waved to a girl and asked her to bring Liniang out and stand among the girls.
She then ordered: "Guo Er, take a closer look."
Guo Er looked up again and was about to shake his head when he saw a girl with tears streaming down her face. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and burst into tears, "Lin Niang, it's all because of my uncle's incompetence. It's his fault.
You were sold to a rich family, where you are well-off and drink hot food, don't blame uncle."
Liniang burst into tears, hid her face and hid behind the screen.
Manager Fu asked: "Guo Er, how on earth was your niece sold?"
Guo Er hesitated, then asked Grandma: "If you tell the truth, there won't be any trouble. If you don't tell the truth, do you know that casual human trafficking is a heinous crime."
Guo Er shivered again.
He raised his dark sleeves to wipe away the sweat, but because of the dust, the dust on his face was washed away by sweat. Now that he wiped it, his face was already dark, and it became even dirtier.
He trembled and trembled as he recounted the story.
It turns out that his eldest brother and sister-in-law only have one girl and no son, but they have a small family fortune.
His mother-in-law had always wanted to adopt her second son to her eldest brother's family to inherit the family property, but the eldest sister-in-law wanted to wait until the girl got married.
After all, if you don't have a son, you can choose whatever dowry you want when your daughter gets married, and it doesn't matter if it's a little larger.
If you have a son, you will be restricted by your son.
Moreover, what the sister-in-law actually meant was that she would need her son to offer incense when the two of them were about to be buried. At that time, if they were to adopt the family, their own family could also directly hand over the family property to the adopted son.
The quarrel between the two families was not very pleasant.
Who would have known that later my sister-in-law got an emergency and spent a lot of money on medical treatment. Guo Er's mother-in-law stopped doing it. She said that she should not see a doctor because she was sick. So much money was spent all at once. It should have been for her son, but now
It will all be spent by my sister-in-law.
There was a lot of fuss for a while, and the sister-in-law was so angry that she died.
After my sister-in-law died, my eldest brother was in a trance, and one day he accidentally fell into the river and drowned.
As a result, Liniang was left in Dafang's family. Linniang was an orphan and had no choice but to live with her uncle and aunt.
*****
Naturally, this is not the final result. It has not been finished yet, so the truth will be revealed tomorrow.
