Chapter 1216 Wu Xiaoan (2)
Tian Rongrong chuckled. "Don't you think it makes sense?"
"But... that's unfilial..." Wu Xiaoan wanted to nod, but she couldn't. They had been influenced by filial piety since childhood, and those who were unfilial were not even allowed to enter the family ancestral hall.
"Your so-called filial piety is that if your parents want to sell you, you will be sold obediently?" Tian Rongrong disagreed with this idea. "Are you sure this is not foolish filial piety?"
"But...but they are my parents?" Wu Xiaoan felt that her cognition was challenged, and she really wanted to say that what Tian Rongrong said was wrong.
But in her heart, she felt that what she said made sense.
Do you think that if your parents want to kill you, you will have to stand there and be killed by them?
"So what? No one denies that they are not your parents! But you are a human being, not an animal. No matter what they do, they cannot control you." Tian Rongrong said. "They clearly want to sell you for money. How can such people be worthy of being parents? What kind of parents would sell their own daughter? Tell me?"
"..." Wu Xiaoan had nothing to say. Her parents were about to sell her.
"If we save you, you will still go back to that family. If something like this happens again, they will sell you off again." Tian Rongrong said firmly. "If there is one, there will be another. You will always be a commodity in that family."
"Then where can I go...will I be homeless?" Wu Xiaoan's eyes turned red and he could no longer hold back his tears.
The world is big, but there is no place for her.
"You said you would be taken away tomorrow. Do you know where all the girls are?" Ji Xiaomu asked Wu Xiaoan.
Wu Xiaoan nodded. "When we were sold, we were taken to an open space in the village and carefully examined by the merchant. There were about twelve girls sold at that time, including me. We were sold by our relatives and were depressed and desperate, so we didn't communicate."
"Then how do you know you have to leave tomorrow?" Ji Xiaomu asked again.
"I heard the merchant talking to his companions, saying that they would leave tomorrow after the goods were ready." Wu Xiaoan lowered his head. "We were placed in a dilapidated temple. They held our indentures in their hands and said that if we dared to escape, they would report us to the authorities and break our legs if they caught us..."
Ji Xiaomu frowned. This was because she knew that they were homeless, so she acted recklessly. She was not afraid that they would run away, because they had nowhere to go even if they wanted to.
"But I still escaped. I didn't want to run away, but to find someone who could save us." Wu Xiaoan looked at Ji Xiaou expectantly, and Ji Xiaou smiled. "How do you know me?"
"Don't say you've seen me. I have impressions of people I've met, but you... I've definitely never seen you." Ji Xiaou looked at Xia Xiaoan. She had a pretty face. Although she wasn't stunningly beautiful, she became more and more attractive the more you looked at her. Moreover, her eyes were lively and cute, like a little rabbit. If Ji Xiaou had seen her, she would definitely not forget her.
"...Guo'er told me." Wu Xiaoan glanced at Ji Xiao'er anxiously, "Guo'er persuaded me to go to your embroidery workshop. I really wanted to go, but my mother wouldn't let me go..."
"Don't be angry with Guo'er..." Wu Xiaoan was afraid of implicating Wang Guo'er, so he quickly said to Ji Xiaomu.
Ji Xiaowu chuckled and shook her head. "What's there to be angry about? Don't worry! I won't be angry with Guo'er. She did the right thing."
