Chapter 1976: On the way to escape famine, the kid I picked up became the emperor 23
Hearing this, the madam glanced at the patched robe on the girl's body, with a trace of disdain in her eyes. She raised her hand, and a piece of paper appeared in her hand. She said, "Your indenture is here. Even if it is reported to the government, I am still right. Little girl, you should just come back with me."
Cheng Rui was illiterate, so she didn't believe it was true, and she turned around and wanted to run away.
Seeing this, the madam narrowed her eyes and said, "You ungrateful little girl." After she finished speaking, she waved her hand, and several servants rushed forward and grabbed Cheng Rui.
"Haha, you still want to run?" The madam came up, sneered, and warned, "If you dare to run again, don't blame me for being rude!"
Hearing this, Cheng Rui raised her eyes angrily and began to struggle frantically, "Let me go!!"
"Hmph! Let you go? I spent twenty taels of silver to buy you! You want to leave? No way! Unless you return the twenty taels of silver to me intact!" The old procuress put her hands on her hips, glanced at Cheng Rui with her triangular eyes, and the words she uttered were as sharp as a knife.
Hearing this, Cheng Rui was struck by lightning, her body trembled violently, and a trace of despair flashed in her eyes.
She widened her eyes and shouted in disbelief: "Impossible! There is no way my second brother would sell me out!!"
However, her voice was drowned out by the impatient scolding of the madam.
The madam was too lazy to listen to Cheng Rui's nonsense. She waved her hand and ordered bluntly, "You guys, quickly shut her mouth and take her back to the building! Don't let this little bitch run away! If anything goes wrong, I'll punish you!"
Before he finished speaking, several strong servants quickly surrounded him.
One of the servants deftly took out a dirty handkerchief from his arms and stuffed it into Cheng Rui's mouth without saying a word.
Several other people rushed forward, grabbed Cheng Rui's arms and shoulders tightly, and dragged her back.
The madam looked at the scene in front of her with smugness, waving her handkerchief, twisting her fat body, and walking away with a figure-eight step.
Cheng Rui was like a lamb to be slaughtered. Although her heart was filled with resentment and anger, she was powerless to resist the brutal actions of these people.
In this way, Cheng Rui was dragged all the way back to Yihualou.
Along the way, her eyes were always fixed on Yihua Tower which was getting closer and closer in front of her, her eyes were full of confusion and pain.
Even when she stood in front of the vermilion gate of Yihua Tower, Cheng Rui still could not accept the cruel reality - her most trusted second brother actually sold her to a brothel.
Just before Cheng Rui was about to step into the building, suddenly, a hand as dry and wrinkled as a dead branch reached out and grabbed her arm tightly.
"Where did this old woman come from? Are you looking for death?" Several servants frowned and started cursing.
Hearing this, Yun Qian's eyes darkened. She snatched Cheng Rui back from the hands of several servants and handed her to Boss Cheng behind her.
"Xiao Rui? It's really you! Why are you here?" Boss Cheng weighed the things on his body and freed one hand to help Cheng Rui take off the handkerchief in her hand.
Cheng Rui burst into tears. Seeing her relatives, she could no longer hold back and burst into tears, "Wow! It's my second brother! They said my second brother sold me out!"
"What!" Boss Cheng's face changed. "Second Brother? Where is he? How dare he do such a beastly thing!!"
"Woo woo woo! I don't know ..."
