"Bah! What is your maid? Do you want face?" The Qi family and the Zhao family were considered to have a feud, so they smiled coldly without thinking.
But some villagers who were watching said "Ah!" they remembered.
"Why do I remember that Mr. Luo and his wife sold Shuyan!"
"Ah, yes, I was just saying that it seemed like there was something I couldn't remember, so it was this!"
"Since you sold it, you are no longer a member of the Luo family, right?"
"That's the truth."
"But the one who bought Shuyan girl wasn't a family from Bajiao Village? Why, how did it become the Zhao family? Can the Zhao family buy someone?"
As a refugee, you are not allowed to buy or sell land, houses, or people, nor are you allowed to own any private property such as shops or businesses.
After listening to the villagers' discussions, Uncle Luo and his wife remembered that their family had sold Luo Shuyan, and their hearts thumped. Then when they heard it again, they became angry again.
Mrs. Qi sneered: "Your family bought her as a maid? Why do you think so? I will take her away now. If you have the ability, go to the government to complain."
When a convict family buys a maid, she will be the first to suffer the consequences when she is sued to the government.
Zhao Liya was even more surprised: "Don't you know? My sworn brother is not a fugitive, but a good citizen!"
Aunt Li Shiyi, Widow Qu and others all laughed.
"Oh, sister-in-law of the Luo family, why do you come to the door to make trouble without knowing anything about it? You can't do this. It's too irritating to the fellow villagers."
"No! The deed of sale is clearly written in black and white on the paper. You have also accepted the money. How can it make sense that you still want someone now?"
"According to me, the eldest sister-in-law and brother of the Luo family should go back quickly. This girl Shuyan has nothing to do with you for a long time!"
The villagers sighed and nodded one after another. Yes, that's the truth!
Uncle Luo opened his mouth but was speechless.
Qi was not so easy to dismiss, and shouted angrily: "Okay! I understand! I understand everything! You, you are in the same group, you set a trap on me from the beginning! Despicable! Shameless! Isn't that ten?
Two taels of silver? I'll give it back to you, I'm going to take this damn girl away! If you don't want to, I'm not done with you! It doesn't make sense to say that it doesn't make sense. A girl in my family is only worth ten taels of silver to raise such a big girl? Are you dreaming?
!”
Zhao Liya smiled and said: "I am fooling you? You are overthinking! Don't say nonsense without evidence, otherwise I will go crazy and beat people up. I don't like being wronged the most. Besides, it's clear in black and white, so I
I want to see what you can do. Was it a lie that Shuyan was so ill? Many people in the village saw it. Everyone advised you to ask a doctor for medicine. What did you say and how did you do it? Auntie Lai of Bajiao Village
When you came to buy someone, did you carry Shuyan away who couldn't even stand up? You still got a big advantage for ten taels of silver!"
"But who knows that Shuyan is blessed to turn bad luck into good fortune? When she arrived at Aunt Lai's house, Aunt Lai couldn't bear to feed her some hot water, and she gradually got better. She begged hard, and Aunt Lai softened her heart.
It happened that my brother, my cousin, and I were in Bajiao Village for business at that time, so we spent twelve taels of silver to buy Shuyan back. What's the problem?"
Uncle Luo immediately said: "Since Shuyan is fine, he is still a member of our family. We will give you twelve taels of silver!"
After gaining two taels for nothing, Mrs. Qi looked at Uncle Luo a little unhappy.
But thinking that Luo Shuyan's value was far more than twelve taels, he remained silent.
A good-looking girl, even if she marries anyone as a concubine, she will get at least twenty taels. Luo Shuyan and Lin Mo are the ones who deserve more.
The more Qi thought about it, the angrier she became. If it hadn't been for the rumor that Lin Mo was looking at her and planning to become someone else's son-in-law, she wouldn't have sold her off in such a hurry.
Yes, this news also came from the Zhao family, it was Aunt Li Shiyi.
Lin Mo didn't show any signs of looking at each other at all, so it must be fake.
Damn it, she wouldn't believe it if it wasn't the Zhao family's fault. But she was not aware of it for a moment, and she never thought that the Zhao family, who was unable to fight, would actually plot against her own family and go their own way.
As long as she bought this girl back, she didn't want a betrothal gift of two thousand or three thousand silver. If Lin Mo could give her one thousand taels, she would agree to let him take her away.
If you don't have one thousand taels, you can still get six hundred or seven hundred.
Anyway, even if that damn girl is married and lives in this village, if there is something at home that requires her to help, can she not help?
If she dared to refuse, she, a mother, would be beaten and scolded until she made a fuss.
Mrs. Qi regretted it. She felt that she was really crazy before. Why didn't she think of this? Even if the dead girl got married, she could still control her!
Zhao Liya ridiculed: "What kind of joke are you talking about? Our family is very satisfied with Shuyan. After all, Shuyan is so capable. You want to buy her for twelve taels of silver? Haha! Do you think we are stupid?"
Mrs. Qi gritted her teeth and asked, "How much do you want? Is twenty taels enough?"
Twenty taels is her bottom line.
The Zhao family all found it funny. Where did the Qi family get the confidence that the Zhao family was going to sell Luo Shuyan?
Zhao Liya: “I won’t sell it, not even a hundred taels!”
"What!"
"I said I won't sell it. As for our family, I have the right to decide whether to sell it or not. You can make trouble if you want. See if our Zhao family is afraid."
Uncle Luo said angrily: "Aren't you going too far? Isn't this tearing our family apart? Why don't you sell it!"
Zhao Liya asked Luo Shuyan: "Shuyan, are you willing to return to the Luo family and become their family's flesh and blood?"
Onlookers: "."
This is so awesome!
Uncle Luo was visibly embarrassed, while Mrs. Qi's eyes were filled with fire and she wanted to rush forward and tear him apart.
Luo Shuyan did not disappoint them at all. She shook her head decisively without thinking: "I don't want to! Not at all! From the moment they sold me as a dead person, I will no longer be a member of the Luo family!"
"You heartless and unfilial daughter!"
Luo Shuyan said coldly: "What kind of work was not done by me inside and outside before? How much benefit did you get from Brother Lin by threatening me? What I owe you has been paid off long ago. It is you who sold me.
It’s your idea, no one is forcing you!”
Everyone couldn't help but sympathize.
"That's right, none of us have noticed it all these years, alas."
"Shu Yan is such a good kid. Whoever has such a good girl would be very happy. They are the only ones who work hard to get people around."
"Let me tell you, they sold the person themselves, and they already have the money, so let's just put it away. Why bother?"
"That's right, isn't it like this when buying and selling? How can you regret it after seeing the benefits?"
