Chapter 263 The Second Way

Bai Yiren had no choice but to do her best, she could only try her best to make it. This was not something she could decide. Since her parents had decided to do this, they should tell them about it soon.

After half an incense stick of time, I was about to go home, but just as Bai Yiren was about to get up and leave, a strange thing happened. Suddenly something fell from the sky and just fell in front of Bai Yiren.

Bai Yiren was stunned for fear. She looked down at the things under her feet. It was a silver waist sign with the words "Forgetful Worry" written on it. Bai Yiren looked up at the sky. There was a shade of trees above her head, and she could not see anything else at all.

"Strange, what is this? Why did it fall from the sky?" Bai Yiren bent down and picked up the waist card. She couldn't see anything special about this thing, so she put it in her waist bag and went home.

Not long after returning home, Bai's father and Bai's mother called Bai Yiren to the room. They must have greeted the two in advance. They couldn't speak again on the day of doing business. At that time, they would definitely cause their daughter to be disgusted.

"Dad, mom, are you doing something to me?" Bai Yiren asked knowingly.

The two looked at Bai Yiren with a very complicated expression. After all, they were their own daughter. It was a helpless move for them to make such a decision, and they had a choice in general.

Bai Yiren was very nervous, after all, she knew what was going on.

"Hey! Yiren, you are twelve years old this year. It's time to get married. I won't hide it from you. The harvest this year is not good, and most of the food has been taken away by the government. The remaining food is not enough for our family of five to spend the winter." Bai's father said directly.

Bai Yiren knew about this in advance, so the two of them did not seem particularly surprised, they were just a little sad.

"I know, don't you, Dad, how did you decide?" Bai Yiren asked.

"It's not easy to find someone in this day and age, but I'll give you two choices. One of you monsters married into the Lin family in Qinghe Town as a concubine, and the other may have to go to Baihua Valley in Wanhua Mountain as a servant. Although it's not a good place to go, it's better than staying at home and starving to death at that time." Bai's father said.

Bai Yiren seemed a little sad when she heard this. After all, she was still a twelve-year-old girl and was not very old. She suddenly said she wanted to leave home, which would definitely be a bit unacceptable.

"Okay, then daddy, how did you and your mother decide?" Bai Yiren sighed and continued to ask.

Bai's father and Bai's mother looked at each other and said.

"If it's our decision, we want you to join the Lin family and be a concubine for the Lin family's son."

Bai Yiren immediately spoke when she heard this. If she didn't speak up and fight for it, it would be a big trouble.

"Ah? Dad, mom, I don't want to get married. I'm not twelve years old yet." Bai Yiren said anxiously.

Bai's father and Bai's mother had already done something good, Bai Yiren would have the intention to resist, and this must be persuaded.

The girls in the village basically get married between the ages of twelve and sixteen, which is inevitable.

"Hey? Yiren, girls will get married sooner or later. Although it is a bit unreasonable to marry into the Lin family as concubine, we are all poor families and when we go to the rich family as concubines, we will at least have no worries about food and clothing." Bai's mother advised.

"I don't want it, mom, I'd rather go to Wanhua Mountain to be a servile servant, and I don't want to get married," Bai Yiren said with an appraisal.

When Bai's father and Bai's mother heard this, their expressions seemed a little stiff. To be honest, it seemed that Bai Yiren would be better than being a servant.

"Are you sure? Do you know that going to be a servant means losing your freedom. No one can help you in the future." Bai's father reminded seriously.

"I know, but I still have to choose to be a servant." Bai Yiren said again and said sure.

Speaking of which, Bai's father and Bai's mother had no choice. There was always a choice. They sighed repeatedly, but in the end they chose to respect Bai Yiren's meaning.

"Hey! Well, Xi'er, you are ready. In three days, I will invite the coachman to take you to Wanhua Mountain." Bai's father said.

Bai Yiren nodded. This matter was quite smooth, but at this moment, Bai Yishui ran in from outside the door.

"Mom, dad, you want to send your sister away. I don't want it. I won't let my sister leave." Bai Yishui rushed over and grabbed Bai Yiren's hand.

When Bai's father saw this scene, he seemed calm, while Bai's mother couldn't help but cover her mouth and cried quietly. If there was a better choice, she would never give her daughter to others.

"Okay, things are settled, you guys go out." Bai's father certainly wouldn't care about silent views.

"Dad, mom, how can you do this?" Bai Yiren burst into tears for a moment.

Bai Yiren hurriedly hugged her younger brother and left the room. She was afraid that Bai Yishui would make trouble and change his parents' minds.

In this way, the siblings walked out of their parents' room and came to the yard.

"Yishui, stop crying, it's not that I won't come back in the future. My sister will come back to see you if she has the chance." Bai Yiren comforted.

Although Bai Yishui heard the conversation between her parents in the morning, she didn't understand these things. He only knew that he was unwilling to let Bai Yiren leave.

But Bai Yishui grabbed Bai Yiren's clothes tightly and did not let go. Bai Yiren felt helpless and painful when she saw this scene. To put it bluntly, she still had feelings for this family and her younger brother.

Under Bai Yiren's comfort, Bai Yishui finally stopped crying.

At this point, there is basically no way to do it. However, Bai Yiren has slept much more steadily these days than before. At least she doesn’t have to worry about getting married and working as a servant in Baihua Valley. To put it bluntly, she sells herself to Baihua Valley. Baihua Valley gives the Bai family some money every year. As for how much, it depends on how Bai Yiren is doing in Baihua Valley.

Three days later, at the entrance of Linhe Village, a passenger carriage parked at the entrance of the village.

Bai Yiren had packed up his things and followed his parents to the carriage.

"Yiren went to Baihua Valley and had to be obedient. No matter where you are, you can't help being willful," Bai's mother instructed.

Bai Yiren looked at her parents and Bai Yishui, then nodded. She said everything she should say these days, and it would be meaningless to continue talking. I don’t know when I will come back when I leave this time.

"Hey! Brother, dad, mom, I'm leaving, take care of you." Bai Yiren didn't know what to say, so he could only leave this farewell word and got on the carriage.

When the coachman saw Bai Yiren getting on the car, he drove the horses to the road.

"Goodbye sister, I hope we will meet again." After Bai Yiren got in the car, Bai Yishui chased after him for a while. Bai Yiren looked at Bai Yishui through the car window until he could not see anyone.
