Chapter Forty-Eight: Thirty taels of silver, a stepdaughter

"Okay."

Ye Xiuyan had been listening to the movement next door with her ears pricked up, and when she heard her mother's words, she readily agreed, and trotted into the hall.

She climbed onto the kang, took out a small box from under the bedside bed, counted out thirty taels of silver, poured the remaining broken silver and copper plates on the bed, and ran out with the box.

The three eldest sisters were dumbfounded when they heard it, watching her pass by, and there was no reaction.

*

"Mother, bring it."

Ye Xiuyan hugged the small box, ran into the yard next door like a gust of wind, squeezed her eyes, and held it up with both hands and handed it to her mother.

Wu Juan comprehended, took the box, patted his daughter's little head dotingly, and turned back to look at Mrs. Li and the others, her eyes were already cold.

Mrs. Li, Ye Meng and Liu Cuihua didn't seem to see her ridicule, and they all looked at the box.

Wu Juan sneered and opened it in front of the three of them.

The silver of the white flowers flashed the eyes of the three of them, and the eyes of Liu Cuihua, who was stimulated, were bloodshot red.

"Thirty taels of silver, one tael is not much, one tael is not much."

Wu Juan sneered, and closed the box again, blocking the covetous sight: "You agreed to your stepdaughter, this silver is yours." ”

"Dad."

Liu Cuihua's eyes lit up instantly, and she couldn't wait to snatch the silver.

"Shut up."

Ye Meng felt embarrassed, and pushed her away angrily.

"Big brother."

Ye Jian strongly supported his daughter-in-law: "Since you have the intention to sell your daughter, it is better to let the three girls follow us, even if our family is poor, it is better than being a maid for others, inferior, and life and death are in the hands of others." ”

"Dick."

Mrs. Li's eyes flashed: "Do you really think so?" ”

"Yes."

Ye Jian looked at his mother, with a hint of disappointment.

When his mother opened his mouth to ask him, he had no affection for the three girls.

"Boss."

As he expected, Mrs. Li made a decision without any hesitation: "It depends on the meaning of the two of them." ”

"Mother."

Ye Meng was dissatisfied.

Although he also agreed to sell Erya, he still has some feelings for his daughter.

Passing all three daughters to the second brother at once was difficult to accept for a while.

"It's better to pass on to your brother than to sell it."

Mrs. Li glared at him, dissatisfied with his hesitation: "They live next door, and it's not that they can't see it." ”

"Dad."

Liu Cuihua also persuaded him: "Mingjie was admitted to Taixue this time, and he can be 100% on the list in the autumn exam, and he will be a member of the official family in the future. ”

"Mingjie is smart, and he can pass the exam as soon as possible."

When Mrs. Li mentioned her grandson, her back was straight, and her toes were high: "When he becomes an official, the two of you can also get naked, leave this poor and remote place, go to the capital with him, and future generations can also change their fate." ”

"Mother."

Liu Cuihua licked her face and patted her ass: "How could we forget you, we will definitely let your old man go with us when the time comes." ”

Mrs. Li listened to her well, and looked at her kindly.

"Big brother, what do you mean?"

Ye Jian listened with a cold heart, and looked at Ye Meng, who was still silent.

"I listen to my mother."

Ye Meng was moved by Mrs. Li's words, squatted down, and started smoking again.

"Since you both agreed, it's settled."

Wu Juan showed disdain, pushed her husband, and hurriedly urged: "You go to the village chief's house now, ask him and the heads of each family to come over, make a note in front of everyone, and go to the county government tomorrow to change the household registration." ”
