The fish took the bait.

Lin Xiaoyan was secretly happy in her heart, stopped her pace of progress, turned around and said with a polite smile: "Of course it's true." ”

The vicious old woman's eyes lit up, and she said flatteringly: "It's not impossible to sell Lin Xiaohua to you at the original price, but ...... Tell me how to make money. ”

"It was ten taels just now, but now it's not going to work, eight taels."

"Little girl, you can't go back on your word, we are also in-laws......"

"Six taels."

"Mother, don't talk about it, little sister, I think this matter is according to what you say, but you have to tell us how to make money now." The old bachelor gave the vicious old woman a look, and she responded with a mouthful.

If I had known, I should have said five taels.

Lin Xiaoyan regretted that she was anxious, but thinking that she could save Lin Xiaohua, she didn't think much about it, and replied immediately: "If you say it, let's go to the village chief to complete the formalities, and then I will tell you the method." ”

"This ......" The wicked old woman hesitated, and the old bachelor agreed.

He was afraid that they would continue to hesitate, and he would not even have six taels of silver.

Lin Xiaoyan smiled knowingly and said quietly: "Isn't my sister's daughter still in your hands?" You are afraid that I will pay the debt, and I am afraid that you will regret the money. ”

When the vicious old woman heard Lin Xiaoyan say this, she also had a bottom in her heart, and agreed to go to the village chief with Lin Xiaoyan to go through the formalities.

On the way, Lin Xiaoyan saw Lin Xiaohua's two-year-old daughter Erniu, she was black and short, her hair was yellow and messy, her clothes were patched with a lot of patches, and she was wearing a pair of broken straw sandals under her feet.

Lin Xiaoyan looked at her with a wary face, so she called her to her side, took out a bun that had been hidden before, handed it to Erniu, and asked, "Do you want to eat it?" ”

"I ......"

The second girl is still young, she can't say a complete sentence, her black eyes are straight, staring at the bun in Lin Xiaoyan's hand and drooling.

"Eat as much as you want."

Lin Xiaoyan stuffed the bun in her hand to the second girl, she picked up the bun without hesitation and ate it happily.

"Erniu, there are many more here, auntie, as long as you are willing to follow me and your mother later, I will give them all to you." Lin Xiaoyan seduced.

After the second girl finished eating the bun in her hand, she looked at Lin Xiaoyan, who was not a little thin, wearing clothes full of patches like her, and the cloth shoes under her feet were worn out to expose her big toes.

"Nope." Erniu shook her head, returned to the vicious old woman's side and said, "I will follow Daddy and Grandma, and sell myself to support them in the future." ”

Burst......

Lin Xiaoyan was thundered, and the whole person was dumbfounded.

Is this what people say?

"Erniu, what are you talking about, come here, go with your mother and aunt, quickly." Lin Xiaohua was so frightened that she hurriedly stretched out her hand.

"Mean woman, don't touch me." The second girl looked at Lin Xiaohua with disgust, and said responsibly: "You are a vicious bad woman, you can sell yourself to make money to support your family, why don't you sell, I don't want to go with you, I want to sell myself to support my father and grandmother when I grow up." ”

"Erniu, who told you to say these words......"

Before Lin Xiaohua finished speaking, Lin Xiaoyan pulled her and shook her head, handed her the bun held in kraft paper in her hand and said, "Sister, don't panic, I'll get you out first, even if they sell the second girl in the future, let's buy it back, you eat something first to suppress the shock." ”

Lin Xiaohua looked at the bun in her hand excitedly, she had been married to the old bachelor's family for three years, except for the year she was pregnant, she hadn't eaten meat for two years.

Immediately picked up a bun and ate it, then hid the rest of the bun in his clothes.

Just before Lin Xiaoyan didn't appear, she thought she was dead, but now when she sees her relatives, she also says that she wants to take her back, although her mother is very mean, but she can eat well, and she will not be asked to pick up guests, even if she is poor, it is better than nesting here.

Lin Xiaoyan, who was walking behind, saw through Lin Xiaohua's thoughts, covered her mouth and said, "Sister, I ran out secretly." ”

What the?

Lin Xiaohua's eyes widened, remembering the ingot of silver she took out before, and then looked at Min Huaiye who was walking beside them, pointed at him with her finger, and asked, "Sister, should you sell yourself to him for me." ”

Hearing that, Min Huaiye covered his mouth and stole fun.

Lin Xiaoyan glanced at him and replied, "Sister, I earned this money myself, and he ...... Scold...... I picked it up on the road. ”

Lin Xiaohua wanted to continue asking, so the group came to the village chief's house, Lin Xiaoyan told the matter again, and the vicious old woman and the old bachelor also agreed.

The village chief nodded and said, "In this case, I will help you draw up and leave the book, but you need to pay a handling fee of one or two silver." ”

"There is a village elder Lao, and I will pay for my sister." Lin Xiaoyan said.

Because the denomination was relatively large, the village chief took Lin Xiaoyan into the back room to find his mother-in-law.

In fact, he also knows about Lin Xiaohua, but there is a disaster and famine in the waterside village, and he is not good at meddleing in other people's housework, but now that he sees Lin Xiaoyan willing to spend money to make them reconcile, he has a great good impression of her in his heart.

took back the nine taels of silver for the change, Lin Xiaoyan took out two taels of silver from it and thanked the village elder.

After a period of shirking, the village chief still accepted the money.

When Lin Xiaoyan came out with the village chief, the village chief said: "This is your letter of harmony, if there is no problem, follow me to the county yamen tomorrow, and after finding our county lord to stamp it, you two will not interfere with each other when you get married in the future." ”

"Thank you, village chief." The vicious old woman looked at the book and left the book, then stretched out her hand to Lin Xiaoyan and said, "Six taels of silver can be given to me now." ”

Lin Xiaoyan took six of the broken silver that the village chief's wife gave her change.

"That...... How to make money. The wicked old woman asked urgently, weighing the money in her hand.

Although six taels of silver is a little less, according to Lin Xiaoyan's method, they will have ten taels of silver tomorrow, so will she pay the four taels of silver and Lin Xiaohua again?

Even if she opened her legs to pick up customers, it would only be one hundred and fifty copper plates a day, and it would take sixty-seven days to raise ten taels of silver without eating or drinking, but Lin Xiaoyan's method, sixty-seven days, that would be six hundred and seventy taels of silver.

The wicked old woman's heart blossomed with joy just thinking about it.

"Come here." Lin Xiaoyan said.

The vicious old woman gave her son a look, and the two of them walked out with her, Lin Xiaoyan deliberately stood on tiptoe, looked around to see if there was anyone, and then whispered to the two people: "This way to make money, our family has only recently discovered, in fact, our family will send a person to the most crowded place in the county every day, where the decoration is particularly luxurious, and many people like to go, as long as they open the door, everyone squeezes inside, and then ......"
