"Ajiu, why don't you stay at my house? You can also come to the hospital to help." Wen Qingtan couldn't help but extend the invitation. He thought his wife would also like this exquisite child. The boys in his family have always wanted it. A sister.
Lin Xuanjiu paused for a moment, slowly put down the snack, and his smile faded.
The originally lively and joyful atmosphere fell into silence.
Wen Qingtan forced a smile and said remedially, "Everything depends on your wishes. Senior brother will not force you."
Lin Xuan knew for a long time that he had misunderstood, and quickly explained, "I am very grateful to my senior brother for the invitation, and I really want to agree. It's just that I still have a mother and a younger brother at home, and they can't live without me. And"
She let out a long sigh, "I still have a marriage contract, and my uncle and grandma still hope to marry me off in exchange for money."
Wen Qingtan frowned, "Why haven't I heard you mention it before? Please tell me in detail."
Lin Xuan could not resist for a long time, so he told the whole story of the engagement with the Liu family.
Knowing the greed and viciousness of the Lin family's eldest brother, Wen Qingtan was extremely angry, "Then how can the Liu family be a good person? Ah Jiu, you can't marry!"
"If my father doesn't come forward, my uncle and grandma, as elders, can take charge of my marriage."
This is where people feel helpless.
Wen Qingtan and Li Jing were not related by blood, but they treated her sincerely. But her real blood relatives treated her like a pig, a dog, or a piece of merchandise, beating, scolding, and buying and selling her at will.
Lin Xuanjiu said, "One of the purposes of Ajiu's coming to the county this time is to find my father. I wonder if senior brother knows the situation of the dock in the county?"
She originally wanted to visit the medical center, so she went to the pier to find her father.
Wen Qingtan said, "Your father works at the dock? The place is full of fish and dragons, and there are so many cargo ships coming and going. It's not appropriate for you, a little girl, to go there. I'll ask Guo Chang to help you make a trip."
Lin Xuanjiu¡¯s father¡¯s name was Lin Fu, and she also described Lin Fu¡¯s appearance and characteristics to Guo Chang from memory.
After Guo Chang left, she heard that Qingtan asked Lin Xuan to rest in the hospital for a long time and wait for the news, but she couldn't stay idle and ran to the back hall to help organize the ingredients for preparation.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The medicine boys at the hospital were all crowded round her, all busy, just to get a word or two of advice from her, not to mention her attentiveness.
Lin Xuanjiu was funny in his heart, but he didn't hide it secretly. It was rare for a medicine boy to be so eager to learn, so she taught him everything she could.
After Wen Qingtan listened for a while, he felt more and more that she had solid basic skills and was worthy of being his junior sister.
"Bran stir-frying refers to the method of fumigating and stir-frying pure or cut medicines with wheat bran, such as Atractylodes, yam, Shenqu, etc., which can enhance the curative effect. However, remember to use appropriate amounts of auxiliary materials. If the amount is small, the smoke will not be enough and the smoke will not be achieved. Requirements, large quantities are wasteful"
She pointed out all the secrets of the preparation, which made all the medicine boys suddenly enlightened and suddenly realized.
When Guo Chang came back and saw this scene, his little eyes were full of sorrow, a kind of sadness that I help you run errands, but you teach them but don¡¯t teach me.
Wen Qingtan slapped him on the head, "Aren't you usually very clever? Why can't you even distinguish between gains and losses?"
Guo Chang understood immediately that he was able to do things because he valued him. If you can win Lin Xuanjiu's love, will you still be afraid of not getting the chance to be mentored in the future?
Which one is more important, why care about the missed opportunity now.
Guo Chang immediately calmed down and quickly talked about his investigation at the dock.
¡°I¡¯ve asked all three cargo shops at the dock, and there¡¯s no one named Lin Fu among the living contract workers.¡±
As soon as these words came out, Lin Xuan's heart dropped for a long time.
Wen Qingtan also frowned, "This is troublesome!"
Labor moving goods is hard work and extremely hard. It is good to sign a living contract, but living contract labor means instability. In order to ensure the labor force, the cargo store will also hire a group of laborers who have signed death contracts.
A death contract is also called a contract of sale. Although it is not a slave contract, the owner also has very great power. As long as no one is killed, he can enslave at will.
Of course, the remuneration of dead indentured workers is much higher than that of living indentured workers.
Guo Chang could not find Lin Fu among the living contract workers. Based on the greed of the Dafang family, bullying Lin Fu is a fool, and the possibility of signing a death contract for him is very high.
Lin Xuan clenched his teeth angrily for a long time.
It turns out that not only was the weak mother and son of their second wife being bullied, but her stupid father was also being exploited. If they are all brothers born from the same mother, how could they be so ruthless as to do such a thing?
Most of the workers who sign death certificates at the dock are poor and desperate families, or homeless people who have no household registration and cannot find a living business.
A piece of paper selling oneself is equivalent to handing over one's life to the goods dealer. From now on, it will be exhausting work with no end.
But the Lin family, not to mention how wealthy they are, can at least afford to support a scholar. It has nothing to do with not being able to survive. As for doing this kind of thing like selling children and daughters?
Wen Qingtan finally understood how difficult Lin Xuanjiu's situation was. Her uncle is so cruel even to his own brother, let alone her niece who is just one floor away.
"Don't worry, Ah Jiu. I'm going to find someone to ask and confirm where your father is first. The death contract is not irredeemable"
It¡¯s just that the ransom must be ridiculously high.
¡°And the main store may not be willing to let go easily. This is the difficult part.
Those who work as cargo shops at docks like this must have a background. Ordinary people, how can they compete with others, let alone the fact that the death contract is still in their hands, they are not reasonable at all.
Lin Xuan lowered his eyes for a long time, and the hatred surging in his heart increased to a higher level.
"Thank you, senior brother. I should go back after bothering you for so long." She had to go back and think of other solutions.
Lin Xuan sniffed for a long time and tried his best to smile. Wen Qingtan was really sad to see him.
His junior sister is in such a difficult situation. She has a sick mother and young brother, and the burden of the whole family's life is shouldered on her. As the elder of the uncle's family, she has almost no way to survive.
He suddenly made up his mind, "Wait a minute, we can't solve this problem, but my senior brother knows someone. If he is willing to take action, maybe there will be a turn for the better."
Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows for a long time and before he could ask more questions, Wen Qingtan refused to say more and hurried out.
Lin Xuanjiu was left alone for a long time. She thought a lot and realized that she didn't know when she had a sense of belonging to the original owner's family.
Sometimes, she will have the illusion that she is the original owner Ah Jiu.
"If the original owner was not stupid, he would probably live a good life like me, try to live a better life, and would not let his family be bullied again.
The sky was getting darker little by little, but Lin Xuanjiu's eyes shone with a bright and strong light.
She will definitely cancel this marriage, she will cure her mother's eye disease, and she will not let this stupid father sell himself to be enslaved at the dock for the rest of his life.
Wen Qingtan came back in the evening, "Don't worry, Ah Jiu, I've entrusted someone with the news, and there will be news tomorrow at the latest."
Wen Qingtan drank several large bowls of herbal tea and happily shared the good news with Lin Xuanjiu. Fortunately, the noble man was very easy to talk to this time. As soon as he mentioned the situation of his junior sister, he agreed.
They have no clue about this matter, but for noble people, it is just a matter of words.
Lin Xuanjiu gave Wen Qingtan a big gift and solemnly thanked him, "Thank you so much, senior brother. I can't repay you for your great kindness!"
"Don't be like this, what you said is just out of touch with me. I am your senior brother and I should take care of you."
Lin Xuanjiu's heart felt sour and swollen, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he really didn't mention it anymore.
She will keep this feeling in her heart!
It may be a small favor to Wen Qingtan, but it is a rare helping hand and salvation to her. I don't say thank you for the kindness, and she will repay it with actions in the future.
