Chapter 68

"Saying something about having some... some contract with Li Gouer two days ago."

"They wanted to come in, but I didn't let them."

"Sister-in-law, should we drive them away first, or wait for Brother Duan to come back to make a decision?" Tie Shitou said.

Uncle-in-law?

Diaochan frowned slightly.

Her gaze turned to the side room at the very end of the three rooms.

Her uncle-in-law, that is, Li Gouer, was currently locked in there.

This was Duan Yu's doing.

Diaochan pondered slightly:

Two days ago, her husband said to lock her uncle-in-law here and not to let him out.

Could it be because of these few people?

Diaochan looked at Troupe Leader Zhang with a puzzled gaze.

"Let's go, I'll go over and see first," Diaochan said.

Now that her husband's followers and so many villagers were in the house, nothing would happen.

So she wasn't afraid.

Stone nodded and followed behind Diaochan like a loyal guard.

When Diaochan walked up to the fence, Troupe Leader Zhang and his two subordinates also saw Diaochan's figure.

Just one glance.

Troupe Leader Zhang was stunned.

Diaochan at this moment, compared to Diaochan a few days ago, was not exactly a different person, but it was definitely a world of difference.

The brand-new dress she wore perfectly displayed the figure that had been hidden under coarse cloth and hemp clothes in the past.

A red ribbon was tied around her slender waist.

Her beautiful legs were long and slender.

Plus the peerless face after a light application of powder.

Even though Troupe Leader Zhang had been accustomed to seeing beautiful maids for so many years, he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart how beautiful she was.

Worth it!

Too worth it!

Never mind one gold.

Even ten gold.

A hundred gold would be worth it!

Such a beauty, even high-ranking officials and nobles would flock to her.

"You...... are you Diaochan?"

Before Diaochan could ask, Troupe Leader Zhang had already asked impatiently.

Diaochan was slightly stunned, then nodded in confusion: "I am."

"Who are you, and why do you know my name?"

Diaochan felt a bit strange.

She was certain she had never seen the person before her.

But since that was the case, why did this person know her name?

Looking at Troupe Leader Zhang.

Upon hearing Diaochan's confirmation, the smile on his face grew even wider.

And so, he took out the indenture contract that Li Gouer had signed with him from his bosom.

Troupe Leader Zhang held the indenture in one hand and said to Diaochan with a smile: "It's like this, three days ago, I signed an indenture with your uncle-in-law, that is, your foster father Li Gouer."

"Let me introduce myself first."

"I am the troupe leader of the Wang family of Jinyang. My surname is Zhang; you can call me Troupe Leader Zhang."

"Three days ago, I signed this indenture with Li Gouer, your foster father and uncle-in-law, for the price of one gold."

"We agreed that in two or three days, I would come to pick you up to go to the Wang family of Jinyang to become a dancing girl."

"Today is exactly the third day. The contract is here. You can call your uncle-in-law over and ask him."

Indenture contract?

The Wang family of Jinyang?

Dancing girl?

In an instant, Diaochan's mind went blank. ===== CHAPTER 70 =====
