Chapter 180: High-priced daughter-in-law
After hearing Tie Dan say this, Ugly Girl's mother and Ugly Girl looked at him excitedly and incredulously, not knowing whether what he said was true or not.
Tie Dan didn't dare to say anything to death, so he only said to think of a way to let them not worry about it for the next two days. The ugly girl's mother nodded and agreed, saying that she would wait for him for two days. Thank you again.
Of course she has to say thank you, because spending fifty taels of silver to buy a thin, weak and mediocre-looking woman, let alone in Xuanzhou City, even the entire Great Song Dynasty is sky-high. Because of fifty taels of silver, it is very good to be able to buy one in the Qinglou at this time, and the singer will go home as a concubine. Buy an average girl, you can buy eight or nine at will.
Tie Dan didn't know what was going on, the ghost sent God to help this poor ugly girl, maybe it was her sincere feelings for her dead father that moved him, or maybe it was the stubbornness in him that made him admire. Of course, the most likely thing is that he can't bear to see this poor ugly girl fall into Fireworks Willow Lane because of her family's debts.
Anyway, he said so impulsively, when he pulled the cart out of the alley and walked towards Yang Xianmao's rejuvenation hall, he felt that this was a bit ridiculous, if he let his mother know, he went to ask Yang Xianmao to take out fifty taels of silver to help him buy a mediocre-looking weak woman as a daughter-in-law, his mother would be so angry that she vomited blood, after all, favor is also money.
When he walked to Yang Xianmao's Rejuvenation Hall, he began to worry about whether Yang Xianmao would be willing to pay fifty taels of silver to buy him a girl, obviously letting him be the wronged leader.
But at this point, he had no choice, so he left the cart on the side of the street.
Yang Xianmao's pharmacy is relatively high, and there is no water on the street, but when he wades through the water, his shoes and trouser legs are wet, so he still stomped his feet on the bluestone slab and tried to chop off all the muddy water, and then walked into the pharmacy.
The pharmacy business is good, there are many people who buy medicine and see a doctor, and Zhang and Yang Mingde are busy. Yang Xianmao also set up a table in another corner to see a doctor, in front of his table, there are not as many patients as Yang Mingde, it is best to understand, for traditional Chinese medicine, which is more experience-oriented, Lao Langzhong is always more reassuring than a young man, as long as it is not a disease that needs to be disemboweled, it is generally impossible to find Yang Xianmao, of course, many patients are also admired, mainly some incurable diseases, Yang Xianmao determines that surgery is needed after diagnosis, he will discuss with the patient's family whether to operate.
Seeing that the pharmacy business was booming, Tie Dan was a little relieved, as long as Yang Xianmao had plenty of money, he believed that if he said it well, Yang Xianmao would eventually help him with this and would understand him.
But he saw that Yang Xianmao was busy treating people, so he was not in a hurry, and stood aside and waited quietly.
Hongsheng'er, who was in charge of taking care of the patients and their families who came to seek medical advice in the pharmacy, greeted him when she saw him come in and said, "Brother Tiedan, are you here, looking for our young master?"
Tie Dan smiled wryly and said, "Yes, but let him be busy first, and then talk about it when he is free." At this time, he asked for help, of course he didn't dare to make Yang Xianmao unhappy.
However, the moment he came in, Yang Xianmao was already him, but there was still a patient at hand to see a doctor, and it was inconvenient to get up to greet him, until he finished reading the patient, prescribed a prescription, and asked the other patients to wait for a while, and then quickly came to Tie Dan and said, "What are you doing?
The childhood partner spoke directly, of course, there was no need to be polite, Tie Dan still scratched his head a little naively and said: "It's a little something, well, I can't say it clearly in a few words." ”
Yang Xianmao looked back at the patient who was still waiting with some embarrassment, and then glanced at Tie Dan, who also looked a little embarrassed and anxious, he had never seen Tie Dan like this, unlike before, when he came in and told him directly. Therefore, knowing that this time, he should have a request for himself, and it was not good to say it to his face, so he said, "Go to the house and say it!"
The two entered the wing room, and Yang Xianmao's original operating table in the bedroom had been transferred to a special operating room, and there was a special operating room downstairs in the newly repaired two-story building, so Yang Xianmao's bedroom was restored to its previous spaciousness.
After closing the door, Yang Xianmao said: "If you have anything to say, be brief, I have a lot of patients outside, and you can see it." ”
Tie Dan also knew this, but it was still a little difficult for him to say this, so he said it in the end.
Yang Xianmao quietly listened to him tell the whole story, and when he saw him looking at him pitifully, he said, "You want me to borrow fifty taels of silver for you to marry that ugly girl and repay the loan shark with the lion's head, right?"
In fact, Tie Dan didn't say this directly just now, but the meaning in it is very clear. He was really embarrassed to speak, but he didn't expect Yang Xianmao to say it for him directly, so he nodded quickly, smiled a little ashamedly and said, "If it's really inconvenient, forget it, I'll ask and see if I can help her." ”
Yang Xianmao could of course see from his expression that he was insincere, he actually wanted to help this ugly girl, it seemed that this ugly girl had indeed touched Tiedan's heart.
So Yang Xianmao nodded and said, "You wait, I'll go get the money for you." ”
Yang Xianmao came out and told his mother that he wanted to use fifty taels of silver, but his mother didn't say a word, and didn't ask him what he was going to do, so she took fifty taels of silver and gave it to him. She knows that her son uses money, and there is definitely something he should use. , besides, this family has today's all the credit of his son.
Yang Xianmao took back fifty taels of silver, put a large bag in front of Tie Dan and said, "Take it, give it to you, you don't have to pay it back, it can be regarded as a gift from me to your marriage." ”
Tie Dan was surprised, delighted, and frightened, and quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, how can I ask you for so much money for nothing? ”
Yang Xianmao said very seriously: "You have helped me a lot these days, such as autopsy, my surgical operation can be at today's level, it started from you helping me find an autopsy at the earliest." Everything is difficult at the beginning, I have always kept in mind that you helped me, since you need money to get married now, of course, I will definitely help with this favor, so you are welcome, just accept it. That ugly girl is still waiting for your money to save her from the sea of misery, she should be a good girl, treat her well. ”
Hearing Yang Xianmao's sincere words, Tie Dan's eyes were a little red, and he nodded and said, "Then I thank you, you really helped me a lot, I was able to marry a daughter-in-law all because of you! You are really my good brother." ”
"Since they are all brothers, what are you polite to do? ”
Tie Dan nodded vigorously, took the bag of silver, smiled gratefully, and left the Rejuvenation Hall.
With money, everything is easy to do, and Tie Dan gave the money to the ugly girl's mother. The woman was overjoyed, and quickly found an old scholar who was a scrivener, helped write a deed, and sold her daughter to Tie Dan as his wife. After doing these things, Tie Dan led the ugly girl, his mother and the child back to his house to recognize the door.
When Tie Dan handed over the deed of sale to his mother, Tie Dan Niang almost went crazy, trembling and pulling him to the back room, closing the door, staring at him for a long time, before squeezing out a sentence: "Fifty taels of silver, you bought such a girl back?"
Tie Dan knew that his mother would not agree, so he finished the matter before telling his mother. Now seeing that his mother was so anxious, he smiled and said: "This money was given to me by Yang Xianmao, because I helped him, he expressed his gratitude, it is a gift for me to get married, and I don't need to pay it back." ”
"Bastard, the money he gave is not money? Do you know how much you can do with this fifty taels of silver? Our family is like this, you still spend fifty yuan to buy such a girl and come back to be a daughter-in-law, you look at the scar on her forehead, it is called the Heart-piercing Sword!
Tie Dan said angrily: "Mother, look at what you said? People are not born, you didn't see it, it's the scar left by the injury later, -- the injury suffered later can't be counted!"
Tie Dan still knows a little bit of fortune telling.
Tie Danniang stomped her feet and said, "I don't care, I don't want this daughter-in-law, you go and return her to me, and ask for the money back." If we have this money, we can spend ten taels or more fifteen taels to marry a lady who is much more beautiful and beautiful than this woman, so why not marry a woman who is living on the street begging for food? You really have to go crazy with your mother, right?"
Tiedan's brute strength was finally forced up by his mother, and he also stomped his feet and said, "No! I will take a fancy to her, and I can't look down on others, no matter how many taels it is, it was given to me by Yang Xianmao, and I was promised to marry my daughter-in-law." I love flowers, I can spend them however I want!"
Tiedan's mother is also angry with her son in a hurry, since she was a child, she has always spoiled her son, because after her husband died, her son is the pillar of the family, and all the family's income depends on the hard-earned money earned by her son as a servant and pulling corpses, and it is precisely because of this that he values money very much. Seeing that his son was spending money so indiscriminately, of course he was anxious, but as soon as his son came up, the iron egg's mother softened, so she had to cover her face and sit on the stool and cry.
After Tie Dan was on fire, he squatted down and said to his mother: "Mother, the ugly girl is not as unbearable as you say." I think she's a good person, she is so distressed about her dead father, and she will definitely be filial to you in the future. Moreover, her body is still quite hard, but she hasn't eaten for several days. If you haven't eaten well for such a long time, people who are beaten with iron will collapse, and when you have food to eat and clothes to wear, you will be a good girl who is very smart, believe my eyes. ”
Hearing this, Tiedan's mother wiped her tears, sighed and said, "Well, you have this heart, and your mother can't do it, whether it's good or bad, it depends on your creation." Mother is also a person who is half cut into the ground, how do you like to toss it, which day my mother closes her eyes, and she can't see it. ”
Speaking of sadness, Tie Danniang wiped her tears again. Tie Dan saw that his mother was not ruthless, so of course he would not be arrogant. So Haosheng comforted his mother, Tie Danniang then collected her tears, went out of the house, beckoned her to sit down and drink tea to the mother of the panicked ugly girl, asked her about family affairs, and learned that their family was also from Quanzhou, and also opened a tofu workshop, but later in order to treat her husband's illness and poured out all her family wealth, and owed a lot of debts, so she couldn't sell her property to pay off her debts, and was forced to beg on the street by loan sharks.
