General, the lady escaped again

Chapter 1218: Selling Dog Meat Under the Pretense of Sheep (2)

"He's selling dog meat under the guise of selling mutton!" Bai Yichen gritted his teeth and said, "He's buying and selling women under the guise of buying mountain products."

"In this world today, people can't even fill their stomachs everywhere. Will anyone still buy them?" Mother Ji looked at Bai Yichen and asked in confusion.

The world is in chaos now, how could anyone want to buy these girls? Moreover, fifty taels per person is an absurdly high price.

"Some places have not been affected." Bai Yichen glanced at Ji Xiaowu and explained patiently. "Girls like them may be scarce in other places, especially those like them who have just reached the age of marriage and are in their prime. They are the best-selling ones."

"...In order to continue the family line?" Ji Xiaomu looked at Wu Xiaoan. After hearing Bai Yichen's words, all the blood seemed to disappear from Wu Xiaoan's face.

"It depends on how he sells it." Bai Yichen said slowly. There is no fixed answer to this question. The situation in each place is different. Some people buy it to continue their family line, some just for pleasure, and some even to satisfy their own selfish desires. All kinds of reasons can appear.

As long as those people can make money, they will sell, no matter the reason.

Bai Yichen's words were clear enough. Ji Xiaowu patted Wu Xiaoan comfortingly. Bai Yichen looked at Wu Xiaoan. "Do you remember where you were imprisoned? Can you take us there? If you are scared..."

"I can." Wu Xiaoan said first, nodding seriously to Bai Yichen. "I can take you there. I'm not afraid."

Bai Yichen looked at Ji Xiaomu, who nodded slightly. "Be careful."

"Sister-in-law Jiu, I'll leave the role of sister-in-law to you." Bai Yichen said respectfully to Tian Rongrong beside him.

"Don't worry! I will send my sister-in-law back safely." Tian Rongrong replied with a smile.

"Get in." Bai Yichen jumped onto the carriage and said to Wu Xiaoan.

Wu Xiaoan bowed to Ji Xiaou and hurriedly climbed onto the carriage. He did not dare to go inside for fear of offending the noble, so he sat next to the disciple of the Bai family who was driving the carriage.

Just in time to show him the way.

The carriage slowly moved in the direction Wu Xiaoan said, and Tian Rongrong sent Ji Xiaomu back to the Ji Mansion.

Before leaving, Tian Rongrong held Ji Xiaomu's hand and whispered, "Thank you for enlightening us, sister-in-law. I know you said those words on purpose to divert our attention and make us stop being obsessed with the child."

"We are all family. If anything happens, don't keep it to yourself." Ji Xiaomu patted Tian Rongrong's hand and said sincerely.

"Okay." Tian Rongrong nodded.

Tian Rongrong did not enter the Ji Mansion, and Ji Xiaomu did not force her. After seeing Tian Rongrong off at the gate of the Ji Mansion, Ji Xiaomu turned around and was about to enter the mansion when Fang Chen rushed towards her. "What's going on? Yi Chen said that you met a girl trafficker?"

Ji Xiaomu couldn't help but curse Bai Yichen in her heart, and talked nonsense in front of Fang Chen.

"Don't listen to him, he's talking nonsense again. When I was in Xiaohe Village, a young girl wanted to see me and begged me to save them..." Ji Xiaomu slowly told Fang Chen the truth and told him about Wu Xiaoan.

After Fang Chen heard this, his brows were filled with disgust. "Those who kidnap and sell women should be executed."

Ji Xiaomu looked at Fang Chen in surprise, who was showing such strong disgust. She didn't know what he had experienced or what bad memories he had. She rarely heard Fang Chen say the word "kill" so decisively.
