Chapter III: Marrying a Woman to Pay Debts

The time has come, the sunset has completely set on the mountain, and the red glow of the sky is reflected on Su Nian's white cheeks, adding a little more rubbing.

In this way, a beautiful woman with long hair and a shawl appeared in front of everyone, her skin was like condensation, and her breath was like a quiet orchid. As the saying goes, if you increase one point, it is too long, if you subtract one point, if you lose one point, if you are too white, if you are too white, if you are too red, you are born naturally but it is beyond nature.

Everyone was dumbfounded, and secretly thought in their hearts, they couldn't imagine that this gambler Su Old Man actually had such a beautiful daughter!

Of course, those who are dumbfounded also include the creditor in front of him!

......

Su Nian didn't have time to think about it, but felt that the atmosphere was inexplicably awkward, and he was very unhappy, so he hurriedly picked up the strap and skillfully tied his long hair again.

"What is a mere ten taels of silver? Do you know that the word "meagrely" in your mouth may not be able to reach us poor people in this life!"

The creditor had been staring at Su Nian as if he had lost his soul since he had just left, and Su Nian was staring at him very uncomfortably, so he turned sideways.

"In this way, you can only unload your father's hands and feet!"

After hearing this, Su Yiyao directly collapsed on the ground, and muttered with red eyes and begged for mercy: "Master Zhang, please, please let me go of my life, if I break this hand and foot, how can I live?"

Su Yiyao has been in the casino for many years, and there are countless examples of dying because of debts, not to mention breaking his hands and legs.

For a long time, Su Yiyao saw that the old man Zhang was unmoved, but his eyes were still staring at his daughter Su Nian, and he thought in his mind, perhaps, only his daughter could save his life.

Then he immediately grabbed Su Nian's sleeve, and pleaded with tears in his eyes: "Good daughter, daddy begs you, save daddy, save daddy! Daddy pulled you to such a big size with a handful of and urine, can you really bear to see your daddy die in front of you like this?"

On the other side, Su Qing was also constantly pulling at the placket of her clothes.

But she really has no way, a little money and things that she finally got by hunting on weekdays, in addition to subsidizing the family, as well as the tuition fee for her younger brother to go to a private school, and helping this gambler father pay off his debts for three days and two days, owing a lot of money to the neighbors, not to mention, where will there be any spare money?

"I, what can I do?"

Su Nian lowered his head and walked in front of the old man Zhang, looked back at the childish younger brother and helpless father, and said in a deep voice: "Master Zhang, the money, I must have no money, even if you sell my family's shabby house and three points of land, it should not be worth eleven, why don't you think this is good? Although I am a daughter, I will definitely not lose to a man in my work, I, I can go to your house to help you work to pay off your debts." ”

"Poof!" Master Zhang sneered, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of disdain: "Work to pay off debts?" Miss Su, aren't you joking with me? Do you know that even if you work in my mansion for a lifetime, you may not be able to pay back today's money?"

It's not even ten taels of silver in a lifetime! How did this old man's abacus come about?

"Why?"

"Today you owe me ten taels, two days later it will be eleven taels, and in two days it will become twelve taels, so, Miss Su, what do you say?"

"Donkey rolling?" Su Nian said in horror.

With such a profit, when will it be paid off? Daddy is really confused.

"Then what do you say, right? You know, even if you unload my father's hands and feet, your money will still be lost, Master Zhang is a businessman, so why bother?"

Master Zhang deliberately put his hands together and coughed dryly, the corners of his mouth were hooked, and there were bursts of evil intent: "There is another way!

Su Nian didn't know what he meant, but he felt a cool breeze on his back, and he shivered coldly: "What's the solution?"

Master Zhang took a step forward, looked up and down the beauty in front of him again, and nodded with satisfaction: "If Miss Su is willing to enter my Zhang Mansion and become my Zhang Yuanluo's fifth wife, then these ten taels of silver will be my gift money." ”

"No, absolutely not!"

Before Su Nian could answer, Su Yiyao took the lead in refusing: "I will never agree to this matter, even if my Su Yiyao's daughter is not a country and a city, it is no exaggeration to call it a heavenly fragrance country, how can you marry each other for ten taels of silver? Big deal, I will give you these hands and feet." ”

Is this really coming out of the mouth of his own father?

Su Nian looked at Su Yiyao stupidly, he couldn't believe it!

Since she was a child, Su Yiyao has been strict with her, no matter how big or small things are, if there is a little dissatisfaction, she will be scolded and whipped.

The concept of male superiority and female inferiority is more vividly expressed in her family, and the degree of food and clothing is always given priority to her younger brother, and she has never seen her brother do anything, and even scolding is rare, if her brother makes a mistake, this anger is often sprinkled on her for no reason.

When she was young, whenever she saw her father and her brother amusing herself, she resented why she was not a man, so she had been a boy in her life since she was a child, because she hated this daughter who had made her lose everything!

But why would Daddy uncharacteristically reject Master Zhang's proposal today? Could it be that Daddy still has that father-daughter affection for himself in the bottom of his heart?

Reality is unforgiving after all!

But seeing that the old man raised his eyebrows, he said disdainfully: "Another ten taels, Master Su, what do you think?"

The sentence "Master Su" can be said to be right in the middle, and Su Yiyao slapped his hands excitedly: "Deal!"

"I ......" Su Nian was instantly dumbfounded, dare you disagree because the price was not negotiated, and I was secretly moved in my heart, it was really ......

"What do you think of me, do you have a father like you?" Su Nian said angrily.

Su Yiyao snorted, completely forgetting Fang Cai's gaffe image, as if he had regained all his lost dignity at this moment, and said arrogantly: "What's wrong with me? Now it's rare that Master Zhang can take a fancy to you and is willing to marry you into Zhang's mansion to enjoy happiness, you have to know what to do. Besides, Master Zhang is kind-hearted, and he will give us ten taels of silver as a gift, and with these ten taels of silver, your brother will not have to worry about marrying a wife in the future. ”

Before Su Nian's words, Su Yiyao continued to count: "You don't look at yourself, you are seventeen years old and have not yet married, you show up all day long, and you don't have half the reserve of a boudoir woman, you know that Cheng Tianye is in that forest, except for Master Zhang, who will want you? Could it be that you want to stay at home for the rest of your life and be laughed at? You don't care, but where is my old face?"

What the?...... Be in the spotlight...... Wild in the woods...... Being laughed at......

What a joke!

's mother died early, his younger brother was young, and his father was addicted to gambling, if it weren't for the copper money that he had earned in the woods by himself, the family of three would have starved to death on the streets, let alone have any face?

Now for the sake of this so-called face, or for this meagre twenty taels of silver, my father is going to bury the happiness of his life, is it really because he is a daughter?

"Daddy is sincere?"

"If you refuse to marry, then prepare to collect the body of your father and me!" After saying that, Su Yiyao turned his back to Su Nian, and he was really indifferent and ruthless......

Su Nian sneered, his heart collapsed, his square inch was confused, and the spiritual platform collapsed!

"Okay, I'll marry, I'll marry...... This time, the right should be to repay my father's nurturing grace and teaching in the past 16 years...... At this point, I don't know the end of the world, and there is no father-daughter bloodline, flesh and blood affection!" sonorous words, jumping out decisively, the cool breeze entered the throat, and the heart was clogged......

The cuckoo returning from the forest repeats over and over again: "Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo...... Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry......"

A drop of turbid tears fell to the ground, and there was no trace.

"Three days! Give me three days, and after three days, I will wait here for Master Zhang's sedan chair!"

The corners of Master Zhang's eyebrows rose, and he said happily: "Okay, according to you, according to you!"

......

In front of the door of a low courtyard, Su Nian brushed his sleeves to wipe away the tears left in the corners of his eyes, and after thinking twice, he mustered up the courage to gently knock on the chai door in front of him.

The door is opened by an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy, even if he is dressed in coarse clothes, it is still difficult to hide his sparse temperament, under the thick and slender eyebrows, the deep eyes have a kind of brilliance, just like a little light on the jade, gentle but tenacious, dignified body, graceful demeanor, under the moonlight, like a magnolia petal above the clear stream, its beauty is unique.

The young man looked at Su Nian, whose eyes were red, and said with concern: "Nian'er, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying? It's so late, why haven't you come home yet? Could it be that your father beat you again?"

The boy knew that whenever she was wronged at home, she would come here to look for him.

Su Nian looked up at the young man in front of him, his eyes were gloomy: "Su Yu, you go out for a walk with me!"

"Hmm. The young man didn't have time to think about it, just nodded solemnly, turned around and went into the house to get a gray fox fur cloak and hang it on Su Nian's back.

In addition to the bright moon on the horizon, there is also the gaze of the young man in front of him.

......

Under the moonlight, on the shore of the clear water lake, the two sat next to each other.

"Nian'er, don't worry, I will go to your house early tomorrow morning to propose to your father, and I will not let you marry that Master Zhang!" Su Yu stroked Su Nian's forehead, and his tender gaze was like the snow water that melted at the beginning of three springs into a Yin Yin stream, slowly flowing into the heart of the long-drought and dry, but from now on, I am afraid that it can only stay in the bottom of my heart.

Su Nian sat up, and the brilliance in his eyes flashed: "No, it's useless for you to go, my father won't agree to you, besides, Master Zhang's family business is my own responsibility, and there is no place to maneuver." ”

Su Yu held Su Nian's hand in his hand, and the warmth of his palm burned Su Nian inch by inch. "I won't let you marry him, I will never ......" Su Yuhu's expression became solemn, and the strength of holding Su Nian's hand unconsciously increased, but the corners of his eyebrows twitched faintly.
