Chapter 157 Buying Erya Chen

"She is still unconscious and she is seriously injured and is not suitable for travel even if she wakes up. There is also a big scar on her head, and she has already broken her face. Are you sure that she will still fall in love with her after she goes?"

"What, it's a disgrace. The dear girl is really trying to find trouble for us."

Chen Erya's father didn't say anything, as if he agreed with everything his current wife did.

"Da Chen, your daughter is like this, why don't you say a word? Who did you find for her? They are all older than you, and you are so cowardly."

Liu Tiezhi was so angry that he looked at him.

After Chen Da was scolded by him, he spoke, "Don't force Erya to get married, she is probably afraid that she will not be able to go out now."

His wife Niu immediately jumped up and said, "You don't feel hurt when you stand and speak. Then don't spend money on eating and dressing. It's hard to support the three of us by relying on the little things you earn."

"Let's take Erya back first! Can we stop arguing in the boss's house?"

"No, I've sent it out, so it's impossible for me to pick it up again. Is it necessary for me to support her for the rest of my life if I'm a big girl?

Pei said with a cold face: "You are a little unreasonable. Although this Erya is not your biological child, you don't plan to take care of her now that she has disfigured her. Wouldn't you still force her to die?"

Niu was not angry with Pei, so he just pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Madam, you don't know! Her mother has been dead for several years, and I treat her like my own child.

Now that she is big and her wings are hard, I found him a husband's house, but she dares to hit a stone. The old sayings are not always the same as the matchmaker. Isn't it okay if she marrys obediently? She insists on doing this, can you not get angry?"

Pei didn't believe her, so he said, "Okay, I don't want to say much about your own family affairs. Since you treat her as your own money, you might as well make up her medical expenses now?"

When Niu heard that he still had to pay for medical treatment, he was immediately dissatisfied.

"Why do you still need money?"

"What you said, do you need money to seek medical treatment from a doctor?"

"Then...how much?"

"Your daughter was seriously injured and almost recovered. My Lili used ginseng medicine to rescue her. The medicine on the wound will not be charged for you. Just settle the two taels of silver for this medicine."

"What? Two taels of silver, you are not kidding, Madam!"

"Do you think I'm joking with you? If you don't believe it, I can ask my daughter to take the medicine with you to the big medicine shop in the city to see if it's worth the price."

"No, madam, I'm not saying that your medicine is not worth the price, but we didn't ask you to save her!"

As soon as Pei said this, before he could speak, Liu Tiezhi and Li Yong and others criticized Chen Da.

"What are you thinking about Chen Da? If you didn't have to find a boss to help your daughter, you would have lost. Wouldn't the second tael of silver be worth her life? Or are you thinking that you were the same as your wife, and you thought we were meddling in other people's business and asked someone to save Erya?"

"No, Brother Liu, I didn't think that way, but our family is short of money now, and really... I can't afford so much money."

Seeing that he was so unpromising, Liu Tiezhi really wanted to beat him up, so how could he be a father like this?

Everyone knew that Niu had collected Ma Dacheng's five taels of silver and sent Erya over. Now he was clamoring that there was no silver. His two youngest sons ran away all day with candy cubes all day long. Who would believe that there was no silver?

Niu kept crying next to him, saying that he didn't want to give medicine money without money.

Seeing that the situation was right, Pei asked, "How much silver gift did you receive when you married Erya?"

Niu replied reluctantly: "Five taels of silver."

"Okay, now I'll give you two choices, one is to give you the medicine money with great pleasure, and the other is that you not only don't need to give medicine money, I will give you three taels of silver, but I have the conditions."

When he heard that Pei gave them three taels of silver, Niu and Chen Da couldn't believe their ears.

Niu said without thinking and blurting out: "Madam, I will choose the one behind. No matter what your conditions are, we will agree to you."

The people watching around were also curious about what conditions Pei would propose.

"Since you are unwilling to give me medicine money, I will buy your Erya as five taels of silver. Apart from the medicine money, I will give you three taels of silver. After signing the contract, we will go to the yamen to file a record. If you don't want to, just pretend that I have never said it."

"I'm willing, I'm willing, it's her blessing for the wife to fall in love with us Erya. You said that's right, the child's father."

Niu elbowed Chen Da twice and signaled him to agree quickly. She felt that Erya had ruined her appearance anyway, and it was already very good to be able to sell three taels of silver now.

Under the pressure of his wife's eyes, Chen Da nodded and agreed.

Pei asked Ali to write two contracts for them, asking them to put their handprints, and then take them to the yamen to file.

The contract was signed soon. After getting the money, Niu pulled Chen Da away. Before leaving, he said that Chen Erya would have nothing to do with them in the future.

After Liu Tiezhi and others left, they expressed their admiration for Lin Changlu and Pei.

"The boss and his wife are really kind and are willing to take Erya in. We have watched her grow up since we were young. We really can't stand her parents' behavior, but we can't help her. Now this result is the best for her."

"I think Erya's child is also pitiful. She really can't bear to marry such an old man at a young age. She had actually woken up just now, and we also asked her what she thought, and I did this only if she wanted me."

Chen Erya has always been awake and heard what her biological father and stepmother said, and she has really given up on them.

From now on, even if she is a slave, she will live a better life than before.

Ali and the others stayed in Zhuangzi for four or five days before preparing to go back.

They took a detour to the village where Wu Lan was.

As soon as I entered the village, when I was about to arrive at Wu Lan's house, I heard her quarrel with someone loudly.

"You have kept the price of medicinal materials so low, how can we survive? You even agreed on the price when you came, and you actually changed it just by saying that it was too dishonest."

"It was the time when I came. I think your medicinal materials are not good, so the price can only be lower. Don't shout to me, if you want to sell, you don't want to sell, but I would like to remind you, if you don't sell them in Yecheng, I guess no one from other families dares to collect them."

"As long as you are deliberately bullying us, I won't beat you to death."
