Luo Dahu hesitated for a long time, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, one hundred coins is one hundred coins, I'll pay.
Sister Zhang...I'll help you push the wooden cart onto the boat."
At this time, Boss Zhu also saw Shu Jiaying and Xiaohua lying on the wooden cart. He asked in surprise, "Why are the ugly Shu girl and Xiaohua sleeping here like this?"
Zhao Chunlian immediately came out to explain.
"Boss, Old Shu has already received the betrothal money from this elder sister. They have agreed to marry their daughter to her relative. As for Xiaohua..."
Xiaohua is the daughter of the brother next to him. He finally found his lost daughter, so of course he wants to bring his daughter home.
"Yeah?"
How could Boss Zhu possibly believe such a statement?
He asked as usual: "Why haven't I heard the villagers talk about what you said? And I know Xiaohua is Zhang Erlang's daughter. How could she become this man's daughter?"
"Boss, you don't know that more than ten years ago, Xiaohua was brought back from Fengyun Town by my husband. It was thundering and raining at the time, and my husband saved Xiaohua's life. But how could a grown man like him take care of a child?
Later, my husband brought Xiaohua to my brother-in-law's house. It happened that my sister was giving birth at that time, and her child died due to dystocia. So in order to avoid my sister being sad, my husband hid it from my sister and gave Xiaohua to her to raise as her daughter. My brother-in-law also agreed to this.
We originally didn't intend to speak of this, but as you all know, my sister died a long time ago, and my brother-in-law just died not long ago. Xiaohua is all alone in Guangming Village with no one to take care of her. At this time, my husband has met her biological father. From both emotional and logical perspectives, do you think it would be more appropriate for Xiaohua to be taken care of by her biological father?"
Shu Jiaying didn't expect that Zhao Chunlian could make up this story to be exactly the same as the truth. She struggled to get up, but she had no strength in her body. She looked at Yu Chenfeng with helpless eyes.
Yu Chenfeng shook his head and sighed. Feeling that he had suffered a loss, he held Shu Jiaying in his arms.
"Who said Shu Jiaying was going to marry someone else? I'm telling you, she's my woman, and I've already built a house for her. I was planning to pick an auspicious day to marry her, but who knew all of a sudden all these clowns would show up!"
Pointed at Sister Zhang.
"You said you gave a betrothal gift to the Shu family. How much did you give?"
Sister Zhang glanced at Zhao Chunlian, who blankly stretched out five fingers.
"I gave... I gave five taels of silver."
"Hahaha... You want to take my wife away for just five taels of silver? Do you know how much I spent on building those big blue brick houses? I'll tell you, five hundred taels of silver. As long as you pay me for the money I spent on building the houses, you can take her away."
When Sister Zhang heard that she had to pay five hundred taels to take Shu Jiaying away, she almost jumped up.
"What did you say? She's worth five hundred taels? Are you kidding me? And what about the house? I don't even know if what you said is true."
"You dare to question my words?"
Yu Chenfeng sneered and looked at Boss Zhu again.
"Are you a local villager from Guangming Village?"
Boss Zhu nodded.
"That's right."
"Then did you know that there was a piece of land and a thatched cottage in the back mountain that originally belonged to Miss Shu?"
"I know a little about this. I heard from the villagers that in order to start her own business, the ugly girl Shu traded her own house with the old man Shu for a thatched house and bad land in the back mountain. After that, the villagers said that the ugly girl was not only ugly, but also stupid."
