Chapter 947: Too Much?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
He Erniu started to feel hatred in her heart. She thought that she was going to be rich and that good days were coming. In the end, she was forced to wake up from her dream.
Only Du Shanqiang felt particularly uncomfortable with this situation. He wanted to say that he didn’t want to marry or sell Hongguo. He will divorce Xue Daxi, and let her take Hongguo away, but he couldn’t say it. He was afraid that his parents would want to hang themselves again.
“Then what should we do?” Grandma Du did not know what to do. “Why don’t we just take back what we said? Let her and Daxi continue to be lazy in this house while we continue to fight with them. Perhaps one day, we will return to how we were before. Maybe they’ll finally stop rebelling and stop being angry.”
“l can’t take it anymore, I can’t take it anymore.” Grandpa Du, however, kept waving his hands as if he was tired. “Our family’s rice is about to run out. It’s a burden to have two more mouths to feed. It’s fine if they work, but they aren’t! That doesn’t stop them from eating our share of the meal. They would rather watch us burn than save us. They’re really determined. Now that Hongguo is also being unreasonable, it’s obvious that she did not want us to take advantage of her. Since she heard everything we said, would she still want to reconcile with us in the future?
It’s better not to expect anything from them anymore. In the end, we still have to sell Hongguos and earn a way of living. We can’t eat at home for a few more days for nothing. Our family will suffer too much.”
Grandpa Du looked at Du Shanqiang and continued, “How about this, Shanqiang, go out tomorrow and find out how much Hongguo can be sold for at most. If it’s ten silver, we’ll tell Daxi that as long as she’s willing to give us a little more than ten silver, we’ll let Hongguo leave this house with her. You’ll also divorce her and get the village chief to be the witness. She would definitely be willing to settle this matter more smoothly.”
Before Du Shanqiang could speak, Grandma Du said happily, “That’s good! We can get more money no matter what! If we sell her directly to others, we would earn less! An extra penny is an extra penny!’
No matter what, it was better than them not having money at all, and it was better for the money to fall into their hands!
Du Shanqiang felt even more uncomfortable, but he had no choice. The next day, he went around to ask around the people in town. He didn’t come back until dark.
“How is it? How did it go? What did they say?” Grandma Du and Grandpa Du asked him excitedly.
Du Shanqiang drank half a bowl of water and said, “Hongguo looks too ordinary, people only want good-looking ones. They’re willing to buy ordinary ones, but it isn’t much. They’re only willing to pay four silver at most.”
“That low…” Grandma Du and Grandpa Du’s hearts immediately turned cold.
“But we spent four to eight hundred coins to buy Erniu!”
Du Shanqiang said, “Mother, you didn’t buy it from a person. You bought it from a family. The girl from the person’s family is ordinary. Most times they cost two or three silver. I saw a man spend more than two silver to buy a girl from another person’s family.”
Were they lowballed?
They didn’t know that the town’s people were cheaper!
Wasn’t the price in town usually higher than in the villages?
Grandma Du and Grandpa Du immediately blamed He Erniu for getting scammed, “Do you still have a conscience? How dare you cheat us farmers of our hard-earned money!’
