The arrow pierced the air and hit Chu Daniu's rolling pin.
Bang!
The rolling pin fell to the ground!
Chu Yan looked at Chang Zhe with a 'bewildered' look on his face, his eyes turning red like a little white rabbit.
Chang Zhe frowned and walked quickly to her side.
Seeing that her trouser legs were wet again and her calves were red from the cold, she frowned even more.
Chu Daniu knew that he could not defeat the opponent, so his momentum lost more than half.
Seeing the people rushing over to watch the excitement, his expression darkened again.
"Who are you? What do you want to do? I discipline my daughter, how can it be your turn to intervene!"
The woman who caught up quickly said, "He was the one who saved your Yanyan this morning."
"Did you take advantage of Yanyan's body?"
Chu Daniu immediately shouted angrily.
In his heart, Chu Yan's life was not as important as her innocence, let alone his face.
Chang Zhe's eyes flashed with displeasure, and he immediately said, "I just saved her life, and I have never done anything beyond the rules."
Chen said something strangely.
"Hmph! You've hugged her and touched her, and you still said you didn't see her body?"
When she said this, people who had never thought about it couldn't help but think so.
Everyone had different expressions, and the looks they looked at Chu Yan and Chang Zhe became weird.
Changzhe was speechless for a moment.
Mrs. Chen saw this and said hurriedly, "My Yanyan is still a young girl, and she looks so pretty. She will marry into a wealthy family in the future. Who would want her after you have given her such a hard time?"
"Mom, stop talking."
Chu Yan said weakly.
Mrs. Chen glared at her and then stared at Chang Zhe with a calculating face.
"I think you haven't married a wife yet. Why don't you marry her to you, but you will need a dowry gift of fifty taels of silver."
As soon as she spoke, everyone around her took a breath.
"Fifty taels? How dare you say that!"
"That is, the betrothal gift of other people's daughters is only one or two taels of silver at best, and if they buy some pork or something, their family is not worth so much money even if it is a golden pimple."
"I see, this is obviously a blackmail."
After hearing what everyone said, Mrs. Chen immediately became unhappy.
"Then, which other girl's daughter is as good-looking as mine? Yan Yan is well-known in the neighborhood as a well-behaved and sensible person. If she didn't have a kind heart to save people today, would there be any need to be like this?"
She put her hands on her hips, her face was red and swollen after being beaten by Chu Yan, and her forehead was also bruised from Chu Daniu's beating.
Even so, it couldn't hide all her calculations.
Everyone was speechless by her.
Mrs. Chen immediately became complacent.
"It's not what I said. My Yanyan was originally prepared for high-ranking officials in the city. Today, there is really no way to take advantage of this kid."
Chu Yan didn't need to do anything at this time.
She just looked like she was about to cry and slumped to the side in despair. Chang Zhe subconsciously hugged her body.
"What’s wrong with you?"
With watery eyes, she said, "I'm sorry, it was all me who hurt you."
"This matter has nothing to do with you."
Chang Zhe said immediately.
He looked at Mrs. Chen, his eyes darkened.
"Did you inflict the injury on her face?"
Chen's eyes flashed and she said angrily, "I'm her mother, what's wrong with hitting her?"
"Shall I give you fifty taels, and from now on, she will have nothing to do with your family?"
He asked again.
Mrs. Chen was enlightened when she heard this, and a flash of light flashed in her eyes. She wondered if there was less money, maybe this person had more money.
Thinking of this, she coughed twice.
"That's not true. If we want her to completely cut off her relationship with her family, it will cost at least eighty taels."
She felt a little embarrassed when she said this.
The people on the side were even more shocked.
"Daniu family, you are not talking about marriage, you are clearly selling your daughter!"
Chu Daniu's face turned pale when someone said this.
He glared at the dissatisfied Chen and took a step forward.
"Her mother is talking nonsense. This child is delicate, and we have put a lot of thought into it since she was a child. If I marry you now, I should give you a larger dowry gift than ordinary people."
"In this case, twenty taels."
He is thin-skinned, and twenty taels is the limit of what he can say.
Chu Yan sneered in her heart, which was why she shouted loudly just now and called everyone over.
In his previous life, because everyone was away, Chu Daniu allowed Chen to raise the price, and finally gave him one hundred taels.
Now, she is not so stupid.
"No! Too little!"
Mrs. Chen wanted to jump up immediately.
It's her turn.
Chu Yan looked up with a pair of red eyes, "Mom, are you really going to sell me?"
"Dad, are our family so poor that we have to sell our daughter? If so, I...I...I will obey."
She looked like she was out of breath from crying.
Chu Daniu couldn't stand the disdainful glances everyone cast on him, and immediately glared at Mrs. Chen.
He said angrily, "I said twenty taels means twenty taels! Is it possible that you really can't sell your daughter?"
He was furious!
She absolutely refuses to bear the reputation of selling her daughter.
After the parents settled the matter, Chu Yan immediately tugged on Chang Zhe's sleeves. When the other person bent over, she whispered in his ear.
"Please help me pay this money, and I will return it to you when I make money in the future."
The girl's voice was soft but very firm.
Chang Zhe was stunned for a moment.
In fact, he would have given the money even if she didn't tell her.
But she took the initiative to return it to him, which already caused ripples in his heart.
"good."
Almost without thinking, Chang Zhe agreed.
Chu Yan smiled and said, "Let them go to the village chief's house to sign and sign, and I will pack up my things and leave with you."
Chang Zhe was stunned again.
If he heard correctly, why was there so much joy in Chu Yan's tone just now?
He looked at her deeply.
There is still a simple and innocent face in front of him.
He suddenly felt that he had thought too much.
Chang Zhe did exactly what Chu Yan said and asked to go to the village chief's house to sign and sign and give Chu Yan to him immediately.
Chen wanted to stop it.
But Chu Daniu didn't listen to the advice at all.
He felt that he could not save his face and refused to go back on his word.
So I went to the village chief's house, waved my hand, and both of them wrote down their names.
"Chang Zhe?"
Chu Yan pretended to see this name for the first time and murmured.
But I also chewed on this name silently in my heart.
If she didn't want to use him to return to the capital, she would definitely not want to have any interaction with him in this life.
She would never forget the disappointment in his eyes when he looked at her that day, and how he turned a blind eye to her prayers.
Chu Yan was only in her own emotions and did not notice the stiff body of the man next to her or the uncomfortable expression on his face.
For the first time, he felt that his name sounded pretty nice, at least when it came out of her mouth.
