When Sun Chen returned home, he found that Da Zhuang was waiting there.

"Hey, Da Zhuang, why didn't you go to set up a stall today? Did you lead your autumn sister to play again? This can't be done, your main task now is to make money as soon as possible, won't you have a long break for the New Year, and you haven't been in touch with her yet, right?! ”

"How can it!" Da Zhuang's face was proud, but there was a flash of worry in the depths of his eyes, "I don't know how good it is~"

"You love beauty, don't you want to be a country?" Sun Chen frowned, it's not okay to be strong like this! Originally, the Chinese New Year was the best time to sell snacks, but in order to play with Li Yuanqiu, he dragged it to the market until the sixteenth, and now he came back so early......

"Get out! What are you talking about! Da Zhuang punched him hard, "Am I such a foolish person!" ”

"Why not, I think you're that kind of person!" Sun Chen muttered, deliberately not lowering his voice, so that Da Zhuang could hear it clearly.

"Ahem," Da Zhuang obviously also thought of his performance during this time, and explained with some confidence: "I didn't go to set up a stall some time ago, it wasn't Xiao Qiu's order, she persuaded me to go to the market all day long!" It's just that I want to leave her with a good memory, so that's ......"

"Then why did you come back so early today? Don't say it has nothing to do with that Li Yuanqiu! Sun Chen wouldn't believe that Da Zhuang was so good that he sold out more than 1,000 catties of sweet potatoes that had been put on the market in advance!

"Uh......" Da Zhuang stopped talking, which had already proved his reason.

Sun Chen sneered, and the impression of Li Yuanqiu in his heart suddenly fell to an unprecedented bottom. This woman, why does she only let Da Zhuang revolve around him? Previously, Da Zhuang was not allowed to go up the mountain to hunt, and it can be said that he was worried about his safety, but now that Da Zhuang is in the market, he will basically not encounter any danger.

Is a man who circles around women all day still a man? Sun Chen was unspeakably disappointed in his heart.

Da Zhuang saw Sun Chen's demeanor and knew that if he didn't tell the truth, Xiaoqiu would be mistaken by Sun Chen for not being a good woman, so he could only tell Sun Chen the purpose of his trip.

It turned out to be Da Zhuang's brother-in-law, Li Yuanqiu's younger brother Li Jinbao was in trouble.

There are five sisters in the family, as the only seedling in the family, Li Jinbao is like his name, in the Li family can be said to be a baby bump that everyone is afraid of falling, holding the baby bump that is afraid of melting, Li's father and Li mother are particularly doting on him, and several sisters dare not provoke him, which has developed his selfish and arrogant nature.

Not only did he say everything at home, but also in front of his neighbors, he became more and more arrogant, causing trouble everywhere, and he either beat the boy of the West family or broke the things of the East family all day long.

The Li family's original solid family background gradually fell into ruin when he helped him wipe his ass again and again.

Li's father felt more and more difficult, but not only did he not think that he should discipline his son strictly, but he wanted to tell his in-laws about his daughters as soon as possible, and asked for more dowries, so that he could continue to indulge his son in making trouble. But in the end, they are daughters, and they will not ask for more for the bride price, just any family who can afford the bride price is willing, but there is a bottom limit, that is, they can't let the girl be a concubine.

There is only one boy in Da Zhuang's family, and Lin Tiezhu and Aunt Zhu can do it, so they can be regarded as a good family, so Li Yuanqiu will be introduced to Da Zhuang.

Seeing that the two of them were about to get engaged, they suddenly changed because Li Jinbao got drunk and stabbed others a few times.

The other party asked for a hundred taels of silver, and if he didn't want to, he could only sue the government and let the county magistrate sentence him for more than ten or twenty years.

The Apocalypse Dynasty sentenced Li Jinbao for such an intentional injury case, and the punishment is still quite heavy. As long as a doctor confirms that serious injuries have been inflicted on the victim, the minimum sentence is more than 10 years in prison. If the circumstances are serious and the impact is enormous, it will be increased to a maximum of 20 years. Of course, if the party insists on choosing to go private and does not go to the government to accuse, he only needs to compensate a certain amount.

Because of the severe criminal responsibility, the price of private compensation is not low, if it weren't for the fact that the other party still has a little kinship with the Li family, it wouldn't be just a hundred taels.

In the past, a hundred taels of silver would not have stumped the Li family, but after letting Li Jinbao ruin the family business for several years, the Li family really couldn't get it now.

Li Yuanqiu was going to get engaged after a while, but the bride price they asked for from the Da Zhuang family was only thirty-six taels of silver. In a peasant family like them, which can only have a dozen taels of silver a year, this is already a good price.

The cash that the Li family can take out now is only forty or fifty taels, but after taking it out, the Li family can be regarded as running out of food. What to do? has always insisted on not letting her daughter go to other people's concubines, I'm afraid I can't hold on to it.

Li's father couldn't sleep, and the next day he asked a matchmaker to come to Lin's house to deliver a message, and the bride price should be changed to sixty-six taels. If the Lin family does not agree, he can only help his daughter find a new family that can afford sixty-six taels.

And this family who is willing to pay so much dowry will definitely not be like the Da Zhuang family, the wife of the Ming media.

Lin Tiezhu was originally dissatisfied with the thirty-six taels of silver proposed by the Li family, but he couldn't stand Da Zhuang's deep affection for Li Yuanqiu, thinking that although it was difficult for the family to take out thirty-six taels of silver, he could do it. But now that there are only a few days left before the engagement date, the Li family has suddenly risen by thirty taels, although it is to save her younger brother, but what is the difference between this and selling her daughter? !

So when he was angry, he wanted to ask the matchmaker to carry the letter, and the family affairs of the two families would be done, and everyone would have nothing to do with each other in the future.

Fortunately, Aunt Zhu knew how much her son liked Li Yuanqiu, and she was afraid that he would his father after his irritable temperament came back, so she could let Lin Tiezhu agree, and wait for Da Zhuang to go home and discuss it before making a decision.

Da Zhuang, who was called home, definitely disagreed with his father's idea of breaking off this family business, but he also knew that if the family was allowed to come up with such a large sum of money, there would definitely be a great famine. Who can lend money to their family? Da Zhuang can only think of Sun Chen, who made a fortune at the beginning of the year.

"There is such a thing~" Sun Chen frowned, that Li Yuanqiu looked spicy and cheerful, but he didn't expect the family he lived in to be so patriarchal. A man who is held by a family like that, even if he is pure in nature, will definitely raise crooked, right?

"That silver ......" Da Zhuang looked anxious.

"What do you say?" Sun Chen gave him a blank look and hit Da Zhuang with his fist, "With the relationship between the two of us, let alone fifty taels, even if I want to lend you more, I won't say a word!" As long as I have it, I dare to lend it to you believe it or not? ”

"Good brother!" Da Zhuang smacked him harder, "But you don't need to borrow fifty taels, thirty taels is enough." ”

"The extra twenty taels are of little use to me, giving it to your family can also make Aunt Zhu less saving, I said why is your family so frugal this year, it turns out that it is all to save for you as a bride price!"
