Abandoned Daughter's Beautiful Pastoral

Chapter 29 Bidding

When Zhang's family saw such a group of people, they felt terrified, and with a stiff smile on Mrs. Zhao's face, she stepped forward and beckoned them to sit down.

On the side of the Zhang family, there is only Zhang Dashan's family. Today was originally the day when Zhang Xiaocao entered the mountain, but Mrs. Zhao warned her not to run around in the early morning, and she also wanted to know, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the Zhang family would How to sell her, so I didn't go.

Butcher Huang sat down boldly, and didn't talk nonsense with the Zhang family, he said directly: "Brother Zhang, are you still married with the Zhang family? If not, we won't delay. It's still early. There is still time to go to the county government office, my old cousin in the government office is waiting!"

Seeing such a large formation of the Huang family, Zhang Dashan, who was still a little shy, stood up and waved his hands when he heard the word "county government office", and said, "It's a deal, why don't you make it?"

The reason why Zhang's family decided to marry Widow Huang, and had to pay a high price of 15 taels of silver, was because they were afraid that a distant relative of the Huang family would work in the yamen.

Butcher Huang was very satisfied with Zhang Dashan's sense of wit, and he squeezed out a smile on his face, but this smile was piled on his fleshy face, how horrible it looked!
"Since brother Zhang said so, let's settle the matter of the two children today. As agreed before, brother Zhang will pay 15 taels of silver as a bride price. I don't know brother Zhang, this..."

Butcher Huang paused when he said this, and gave Zhang Dashan a look of "you understand and I understand".

Zhang Dashan rubbed his hands uneasily. Yesterday, his second son went to the town again to find the friend who made the connection. Originally, he thought that he would finish the matter yesterday, but that person had a temporary business, so he had to agree to come over today.

At this time, looking at the crowds of people from the main room to the yard, he didn't want to make a scene known to everyone, so he discussed with Butcher Huang and said: "The money has not been collected yet, look at my in-laws, in two days, I will come again." Will it be done in two days?"

When Butcher Huang heard this, his eyes widened, and he shouted loudly: "What are you talking about? No money? No money, what kind of wife will your son marry? Are you teasing me?"

Zhang Dashan was buzzing from his drinking ears, but he didn't dare to avoid it. Just as he was about to explain, he heard someone outside shouting loudly: "Is this Zhang Baoyin's home?"

Zhang Baoyin, who had been hiding behind Mrs. Zhao since the Huang family came, his eyes lit up when he heard the familiar voice, and quickly stood up while rushing out, while answering loudly: "Brother Hu, brother, I'm here!"

Following the sound, everyone looked out the door together, and saw a group of four people walking over. The one walking in front was a middle-aged woman wearing a dark red satin coat with a golden hairpin on her head, followed by a group of four people. A young man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, this person is Hu San'er, and the other two are dressed in gray coarse cotton clothes, dressed as servants.

The few people were welcomed into the main room by Zhang Baoyin very graciously. Mrs. Zhao had already seen the wink from her son, and flatteringly brought tea and water to the visitor. When she saw the shining gold hairpin on the woman's head, her eyes were almost glued to her. above.

When the woman saw this, contempt flashed in her eyes, she really was a bumpkin!However, in this way, can the price be lowered, so that I can earn more from it.

Zhang Dashan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the person finally came, but when he met the cold eyes of his little daughter, his heart trembled, and he looked away uncomfortably, not daring to look at her.

Zhang Xiaocao looked at this scene coldly, with sarcasm in her eyes, it turned out that selling her daughter was so worthwhile!

Mrs. Zhang Baojin and Liu didn't know what these people were doing, but seeing that her mother and second brother were so polite to them, she thought it was the second brother's friend who came to cheer for their family, so she didn't think much about it. Zhang Baozhu looked at Zhang Xiaocao's His eyes were full of gloating.

After hearing Hu San'er's introduction, everyone knew that this woman was from the county. She was called Mother Song. No wonder she looked unusual. Their ancestors had lived in Zhangjia Village for generations, and they often went to the town, but the county really Few people have been there. What is the ability of this Zhang family to get in touch with people in the county.

Feeling the awe-inspiring eyes of the villagers, Zhang Baoyin was overwhelmed, as if he forgot that he had nothing to do with Mother Song.

Song's mother obviously didn't want to stay here any longer. After listening to those people's chatter, her face had already shown a look of impatience. She glared at Hu San'er and said dissatisfiedly: "Hu San'er, I don't have time here Wait for a long time, hurry up!"

When Hu San'er heard this, he quickly stopped bragging, flattered Mrs. Song a few words, and then said to Mrs. Zhang Dashan and Zhao: "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, this Mrs. Song came here in person today just to see people, the second elder Is this ready?"

Before Zhang Dashan could speak, Mrs. Zhao nodded quickly, and said to Mother Song: "Okay, let's show it to Mother Song!" After speaking, he turned his head and shouted at Zhang Xiaocao behind him: "Come here and let Song Mom, look!"

Everyone was confused by what Hu San'er and Mrs. Zhao said. Isn't this going to settle the matter of Zhang's family and Huang's family today?Why let people from this county look at this little girl Xiaocao again.

Zhang Xiaocao stood still, with a confused look on her face, she looked at Zhao Shi shyly and said timidly: "Mother, what are you going to do?"

Seeing that she looked like a wooden stake, Mrs. Zhao became angry immediately, and shouted, "I want you to go to the city with Mother Song to enjoy the blessings, come quickly!"

When Zhang Xiaocao heard it, panic turned pale at the right time, and she suddenly screamed: "Mother, mother, Xiaocao is obedient, mother, don't sell Xiaocao, the second brother's dowry is not enough, mother can go to grandma's house to borrow money, mother Don't sell Xiaocao, Xiaocao will be very obedient!"

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and said to Zhang Dashan who was silent at the side: "Father, Xiaocao is really obedient and can do many things every day. Xiaocao can always eat half of the meal. Father, don't sell Xiaocao. Xiaocao begs you Already!"

Zhang Xiaocao was stunned by the whole room, what, this Dashan family wants to sell their daughter?

The villagers looked at Zhang Dashan and Zhao Shi in disbelief, their eyes widened.

Zhang Dashan was so ashamed of being stared at by the villagers, he wished he could get under the ground, Zhao Shi was so angry that he trembled all over, he didn't have time to think about how this damn girl knew about this.

At that time, in order not to tarnish the face of the Zhang family, the second son was asked to discuss with Hu San'er. He only said that he would send this dead girl to the embroidery workshop in the county as an apprentice, and that he would sign a five-year contract. They also couldn't understand whether it was a contract of sale or a contract of employment. In this way, others would only say that they were doing things for the future of their daughters, not that they sold their daughters for glory.

It's all over now, it's all messed up by this girl, what a bitch!

Seeing Zhao's distorted face, Zhang Xiaocao felt extremely happy!
You want to sell your daughter for money, but also want to gain a good reputation. How is this different from becoming a whore and wanting to set up a chastity memorial archway?From now on, you, Mrs. Zhao, don't want to raise your head in front of the folks. This is just the interest I ask for the original owner!
