Niu Li certainly had objections and pointed out several points that he felt were not in his favor and asked for modifications. However, Liu Shulin smiled and said that the contract was as it was and would not be modified. They could sign it or not.
Niu Li was feeling angry and wanted to argue, but after she opened her mouth for just two words, Liu Shulin retorted back.
In fact, what Niu Li thought were disadvantageous to them were only disadvantageous for them to cheat later, and did not really harm their interests.
After a fruitless struggle, Niu Li had no choice but to accept the contract.
Because they couldn't write, she and Niu Jiashi just put their fingerprints on it.
Niu Jiashi didn't want to press his fingerprints at first, thinking that as long as his mother pressed them, it would be enough.
But Liu Shulin asked him to press it together.
After all, who told them that they can't write or sign their names?
So, we need two people’s fingerprints!
The contract has been signed in duplicate.
Liu Shulin handed them one of the copies and said, "Okay, let's do this."
Then let the prodigal son and Liu Shuting get supplies for them and help them send them back.
Niu Jiashi also went to move the supplies.
Niu Li held Yang'er in her arms, planning to return him to the Cai family after all the supplies were moved.
Liu Shulin "accompanied" Niu Li, roasted fire with her, and "monitored" each other.
The physical labor was naturally done by the men...
Cai Junze's physical fitness is now much stronger than before. He is not as weak as before. When he lifts things, he no longer gets out of breath like before.
He then moved the things to Niu's house and saw Lu Qingyan tied up in the main room.
Lu Qingyan was huddled on the ground at this moment, shivering because of the cold.
Seeing this, Cai Junze immediately took the charcoal that had just been delivered, burned some, and put it in the basin.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Niu Jiashi wanted to come over to stop it.
Liu Shuting reached out to stop him.
Cai Junze ignored Niu Jiashi, lit a pot of charcoal and brought it to Lu Qingyan.
Lu Qingyan suddenly felt warmer, then looked up and saw Cai Junze.
Just now, she had been curled up, and she didn't even look when someone entered the room.
Seeing Cai Junze lighting a pot of charcoal fire for her, her mood suddenly became complicated.
I wanted to say something, but after moving my mouth, I still couldn't say anything.
Cai Junze did not stay either. After lighting the charcoal fire, he left and went back to move things.
There are a lot of things for the Niu family, and they have to be moved back and forth several times.
In this way, after running back and forth several times, the things were finally moved.
Looking at the supplies that were moved back, Niu Jiashi felt relieved.
With these things, I will definitely be able to get through this cold winter...
When preparing to leave, Cai Junze glanced at Lu Qingyan and said, "Don't worry, Yang'er will definitely be much better off in our Cai family than in the Niu family."
"If you miss Yang'er, you can come and visit. I won't stop you like you did."
"Of course, if you want to snatch Yang'er away from us, that's absolutely impossible!"
Lu Qingyan was still tied up with ropes, sitting there silently without saying a word.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Cai Junze sighed and went home with Liu Shuting.
Seeing that they had all returned and everything had been moved, Liu Shulin said to Niu Li: "Niu Li, can you give Yang'er to me?"
Niu Li was about to return the money, but then seemed to remember something and stopped short of giving it. Instead, she said, "Supplies alone aren't enough. Cai Liu, you said before that you'd give me fifty taels in exchange for Yang'er. That means this exchange is worth at least fifty taels! But the supplies you gave us aren't worth fifty taels. You have to make up for the shortfall!"
As he said that, he stared at Liu Shulin!
Under normal circumstances, the supplies given to them by the Cai family would probably be worth only a few taels of silver.
Like charcoal, it is also very cheap when it is in stock.
Other things are not that expensive either.
In short, according to Niu Li's estimation, it was just a few taels of silver, not too much.
Now that the things were moved, she started bargaining.
For her, any benefit she can get from the Cai family is a good thing!
Liu Shulin looked at her coldly and said, "Niu Li, you said that was in the past. Charcoal wasn't worth much back then. Try buying charcoal with money now and see if you can. It's a different time now. The past is the past, and the present is now. Besides, our contract has already been signed. It's pointless for you to continue playing tricks."
Niu Li snorted and said, "This contract of yours is just to trick us, as we are illiterate. We don't recognize it!"
Anyway, the thing is already in hand, and Yang'er is still in his arms, so he has to cheat!
Niu Jiashi also said: "That's right, we don't recognize it!"
Niu Li said, "Hurry up and give us the difference. It's not much, just forty taels. Just treat those supplies as if they were worth ten taels. That's not too much, right?"
Niu Jiashi agreed: "Yes, you have to pay another forty taels!"
Liu Shulin smiled faintly and said, "Since we've signed the contract, we'll act according to it. What do you think is the point of talking about things outside of the contract?"
Liu Shuting and Cai Junze also stared at the mother and son fiercely.
Especially Liu Shuting, he looked like he would pounce on them and beat them up as long as his sister gave the order!
Seeing Liu Shuting's murderous look, Niu Li was also nervous, but she still forced herself to remain calm and said to Liu Shulin, "Cai Liu, the contract you signed with Lu Qingyan before can be said to be invalid. I'm afraid this contract we signed is also invalid, right?"
