Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

Chapter 185 Teeth

The brother and sister snuggled together, admiring the starry sky and chatting about life and the future.

An Yue felt very warm inside, and she hoped that this moment could be frozen.

Two days later, early in the morning.

An Yue and the village chief set out on the journey to the county town.

It was already noon when we arrived at the county town on a donkey cart from the town.

An Yue found out from the coachman that the pawnshop was on the street behind the government office.

"Yueyue, uncle will accompany you to the dental shop first. After your business is done, we will go to the county government to get silkworm seeds."

An Yuetian smiled and nodded, "Alright, let's go directly to the dental clinic!"

So they took a donkey cart directly to Yahang Street.

After getting off the donkey cart, I looked up and saw all kinds of brokerage houses, including horse brokerage, cattle brokerage, donkey brokerage, slave brokerage, etc.

An Yue walked to the outside of a slave shop, and a matchmaker who was about the same age as the village chief walked towards them.

"Big brother, please come in!" The matchmaker greeted the village chief into the shop and ignored An Yue who was walking beside him.

An Yue's face instantly turned black, and she said in dissatisfaction in her heart: [I am a living person, and she can't see it? ]

The matchmaker ignored her presence. An Yue coughed twice to clear her throat.

The matchmaker then turned around and noticed An Yue.

She looked at An Yue, her eyes lit up and she said, "Oh, this girl is so pretty. If she hadn't spoken, I would have thought she was some rich girl!" The matchmaker said flatteringly.

An Yue pretended nothing happened and ignored her.

The matchmaker smiled flatteringly and asked, "Are you two buying or selling?"

An Yue said unhappily: "We are here to sell."

"I wonder who you're selling it to?"

An Yue pointed at the village chief behind her and said, "Sell him."

The village chief looked confused, "Yue girl, what are you doing?"

The matchmaker was confused by An Yue.

It really doesn't make sense that a girl who is not even of marriageable age would be sold to an old man who is nearly fifty years old.

An Yue smiled awkwardly and whispered something into the village chief's ear. Only then did the village chief understand.

An Yue asked calmly, "How much silver is he worth?"

The matchmaker began to look the village chief up and down, and then went forward to check the village chief's teeth.

"Brother, you are so old now. I am afraid that even if I dare to accept it, no one will dare to buy it!"

An Yue burst out laughing, but was still trying hard to hold back her laughter.

After checking the village chief's teeth, the tooth-smoker pursed her lips and said, "Tsk tsk... At his age, he's only worth five taels of silver!"

As she circled around the village chief, she said to him, "Brother, you seem to be in good health. Why don't you come with me? I'll find a good place for you."

As she said this, the matchmaker came to pull the village chief, who was so scared that he quickly dodged away.

The village chief waved his hands nervously and said, "No, no, no, I am not selling myself. It is this girl who came here to buy a slave."

As he spoke, he pushed An Yue forward.

An Yue probably tried to find out the price of buying a slave.

The matchmaker was stunned, then she started laughing: "Haha, girl, don't joke with me! How can you afford to buy a slave at your young age?"

An Yue straightened her back and said loudly, "I have plenty of money, but I don't know what kind of servants you have here. If they are good, I will naturally not be stingy." Seeing this, the matchmaker's eyes lit up and her attitude became more attentive.

"Girl, I can guarantee that the servants here are all the best in this street. The men are strong and healthy, and the women are considerate and gentle."

Then she led the village chief and An Yue to the backyard.

"Look, you two. This guy is young and strong. He's a good worker."

Then, the matchmaker pointed to the iron cage in the corner and said, "Also, that one over there, she is the daughter of a criminal, and she is proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy, and painting."

Then, the matchmaker pointed to the other iron cages behind her and introduced them to An Yue.

An Yue looked at them and felt a little disappointed. Although these people looked good, they were not the ideal candidates in her mind.

What she wanted was someone who was illiterate but could carry heavy loads, do manual labor, and preferably also help her with housework.

"These are not suitable, are there any others?" An Yue asked.

The matchmaker thought for a moment and said, "Yes, there is, but I'm afraid she has a personality that cannot be controlled by this girl!"

The matchmaker led An Yue and the village chief towards the small dark room.

The matchmaker opened the door, only to hear a sudden "ah" coming from the small dark room.

The sound sounded like it came from the nasal cavity, and An Yue was startled. When she looked closely, she saw a woman with disheveled hair and a disfigured face. The woman's eyes were extremely fierce.

"This is the cheapest one we have here, but if the girl buys it and trains it well, it will definitely be a good seedling." The matchmaker said with a smile.

An Yue looked at the woman in front of her. She was tall and thin, with dark yellow skin and rough fingers, as if she had been working all year round.

Although her mouth was tightly blocked by rough cloth, her eyes revealed a stubbornness and ruthlessness, unlike the gentleness of the women in the yard.

An Yue asked the matchmaker about the woman's background.

It turned out that this girl was sold here by her gambling father to pay off a debt, and now she is only fifteen years old.

She had been to the dental clinic three times and had been bought twice. Not long after, her owner sent her back to the dental clinic again and sold her there.

As for why the item was being bought and sold back and forth, the matchmaker glossed over the matter and refused to say more.

This girl is cheap. Although she has a weird personality, she is obviously good at farm work. An Yue decided to buy her.

"How much silver is this?" An Yue asked the matchmaker beside her.

The village chief standing nearby saw that An Yue wanted to buy her, so he quickly bent down and whispered in An Yue's ear:

"Yueyue, this is not appropriate! She has a weird temper and is hard to tame. She has been sold many times. You and Nian Nian are still young. If she strikes back, you will have a hard time dealing with her!"

An Yue pulled the village chief aside and explained in a low voice: "This is a bargain. Seeing her hands are also working, please trust Yueyue..."

"But..." The village chief wanted to say something else, but seeing An Yue was so confident, he couldn't refute it and had to stop talking.

"Young lady, you really know what's good. I'll sell it to you at a low price. Only ten taels of silver will be enough." The matchmaker smiled happily.

"She has been bought and sold many times in your dental shop. I guess it must be a headache for you, grandma?"

The matchmaker smiled calmly and said, "What are you talking about, young lady? As the old saying goes, 'Everyone has their own taste.' For those of us in this business, there is no slave that cannot be sold."

The matchmaker pulled An Yue's arm and whispered, "If you really want to buy her, then pay nine taels of silver!"
