Chapter 36: This Glance, Shocking
Lao Huang's daughters and daughters-in-law cried and begged for mercy, but Lin said that she only had such a small request for her evil deeds, which was already very merciful.
"Or might you take a break?"
Lin sneered.
The crowd was finally quiet.
In the end, Old Man Gu made a decision to determine the slave status of the old Huang family, and promised that the Lin family would do their best to heal Lu Manjing, and properly handle the sale of his granddaughter, and also ensure that the younger daughter would no longer worry about Bai Xiucai.
The old Huang family was sad and bleak, but they all hated it in their hearts, and they had already begun to think about how to take revenge.
Gu Yuqiao smiled, they thought that the matter was over like this?
Too naΓ―ve!
"Grandpa," Gu Yuqiao pulled the tired old man Gu who wanted to leave, "Now my father and mother need to be seen by a famous doctor, and my deed of sale must be redeemed, you can pay me fifty taels first." β
"Fifty taels? First branch? And the follow-up? β
The old Huang housekeeper was used to it, and he was provoked to scream at the moment.
Gu Yuqiao smiled like a flower: "That's right, it's not good to ask for money from the public." As long as my aunt and grandmother settle the monthly money that I have saved for 12 years in the big house. β
Since the big families who study do have such a thing as monthly money.
Not much, though.
It's just that since he found out that the two-year-old Gu Yuqiao was "stupid", the old Huang family no longer gave it to the big house.
Gu Yuqiao stretched out his hand: "We don't want a fraction either, a total of sixty-six taels, thank you aunt." β
"W-What? No! We've run out of money for a long time......"
Before Lao Huang finished speaking, Lin looked at Old Man Gu meaningfully: "No wonder you want to sell your granddaughter......"
Old Man Gu's old face turned red, "Huang, shut up and take the money!" β
Old Huang didn't dare to touch his head at this juncture again, and finally entered the house in pain.
At this time, Old Man Gu consciously set his eyes on his third granddaughter.
This glance was shocking.
It's obviously still the pockmarked face, and the body is thin.
But for some reason, he saw the shadow of the Qin family from her.
The cold peach blossom eyes are as clear as the blue sky, and the corners of the beautiful lips hold a noble smile.
The girl's posture is demure and elegant.
This...... It's that stupid granddaughter of her own family, Gu Yuqiao?
Old Man Gu inexplicably gave birth to the kind of humble and unattainable psychology that he faced with the Qin family.
Compared with Gu Yuqiao at this moment, Gu Donghua, who he has raised for eighteen years, is so angry that he can't get on the stage.
Not to mention the old Huang family, who is vulgar no matter how he is trained.
I don't feel like I can blame my granddaughter for beating and selling people......
Old man Gu was engrossed, and the vulgar old Huang came out with a small box.
The lid was lifted: "This is all the cash of our old Gu family." β
Old Man Gu pretended to glance at it calmly, and then his eyes widened: "That's it?" β
There were a few pieces of silver and copper coins in the box, but no matter how you look at it, it only looks like twenty or thirty taels.
"It's not that you don't know that since our family was attacked by bandits, except for that little land, it has long been empty. You have always been in arrears to your students, and you have relied on the silver you have saved by selling grain every year all these years, and now you have not confiscated the grain? β
"I know this, but I remember that our family still has more than three hundred taels of silver!"
In the heyday of the old Gu family, there were more than a dozen subordinates alone, and there were 150 acres of fields, but now they ......
Old Man Gu's face was full of embarrassment, he really didn't want to discuss this with Lao Huang in front of the Lin family, but she was too blind.
Old Huang cringe: "Then, isn't that the third child going to the exam and taking two hundred taels with him?" There are still a hundred taels, Dong'er gave Bai Xiucai ......"
