The gentleman is knocking on the door

Chapter 305
311
Seeing that Mi Congcong came back with a relaxed expression, Mi Zhiqing couldn't help asking curiously, "Is the matter with Qiaomei's family settled?"

Mi Congcong shook his head: "Not yet, Qiaomei's father still insists on selling Qiaoxiang, Qiaomei is reluctant and wants to replace Qiaoxiang."

"Oh, Qiaomei is such a silly girl!" Ye Shi became anxious for Qiaomei when she heard it: "I heard that Qiaomei's mother has taken care of a family for her, and both parties have this intention, but they haven't formally discussed the matter yet." , Congcong, you have to persuade that silly girl not to do stupid things at this juncture, it is a matter of life."

Ye Shi doesn't have much affection for Qiaoxiang, but she really loves Qiaomei.

"Grandma, I persuaded, but uncle is right, this is a family matter, even if it is a friend, I can only persuade a few words, I can't do anything else." Mi Congcong said helplessly.

Hearing this, Mrs. Ye didn't want to say anything else, she just sighed and said, "You're a sinner, you're a sinner!"

Mi Zhiqing looked at his niece suspiciously. He didn't think his niece was such a cold person. If Qiaomei really wanted to sell herself, how could his niece be so calm?

But since Cong Cong didn't want to say more, he didn't ask more.

On the way back to Lou Mansion in the evening, Lou Chenxiao asked: "If Qiaomei really wants to replace her sister, do you plan to buy her?"

Mi Congcong glanced at him: "Are you the roundworm in my stomach?"

Seeing that she did have this plan, Lou Chenxiao disagreed: "If you do this, you will leave the beginning and the end."

If Qiaomei's family knew that the person who bought Qiaomei was his wife, even if they sold themselves, Qiaomei's family would probably go to Lou's house if something happened, and it would be endless. He never liked trouble, so he She would rather her daughter-in-law use the money to help Qiaomei than buy her out.

Mi Congcong smiled: "I understand what you mean, so I don't plan to discuss this matter with Qiaomei Dad in person, I want Uncle Gu to go."

Lou Chenxiao leaned on the soft couch, and reminded him in a leisurely manner: "If I remember correctly, Uncle Gu and his son came to help when Uncle moved to a new house. Are you sure Father Qiaomei doesn't know that Uncle Gu is us?" people?"

Mi Congcong was surprised: "That's right, how could I forget this?"

If Qiaomei's father knows that she bought Qiaomei, he will be troubled in the future.

Mi Congcong thought for a while and said, "Yes, I can ask Shangguan Yiyue to help me with this."

The more Mi Congcong thought about it, the more he felt that Shangguan Yiyue was the most suitable candidate.

Lou Chenxiao pondered for a while: "It seems to be possible."

Over there, Qiaomei's father saw that the eldest daughter came back not long after she went out, and couldn't help frowning: "Why did you come back so soon? Didn't you go to Cong Cong's grandma's house?"

Grandma Congcong had a hard life when she was young, but when she was old, she enjoyed the blessings of her granddaughter and lived in a big tiled house with blue bricks. How many people do you envy?

Congcong is a generous person, his daughter has a good relationship with Congcong, and their family is not less fortunate. I heard from Qiaomei that the tiger bone paste that Congcong gave him is a good thing that money can't buy. He has no other requirements. , I just hope that Congcong can introduce a good marriage to his daughter, and he can also help the family in the future.

"Congcong went back earlier." Qiaomei was very disgusted with her father's behavior of asking her to curry favor with Congcong, but this also made her more determined.

"Father, I asked Congcong. Her brother spent a lot of money on his studies. Our family would definitely not be able to pay for it." Qiaomei said.

Qiaomei's father glared at her angrily: "Otherwise, why do you think I want to sell Qiaoxiang?"

If there is a juren in the family, it is a matter of honoring the ancestors.

"I said I disagree!" Qiaomei Niang said firmly, holding Qiaoxiang tightly in her arms.

Qiaoxiang's big bright eyes were full of helplessness and fear at this time, and she leaned tightly on her mother.

Dad said he would sell her for money for his younger brother to study, but she didn't want to leave home.

"Wow~~" When Qiao Ming heard that his mother disagreed with selling Qiaoxiang, he sat on the ground and cried loudly: "No, I just want to study, I want to study, and I will be rich if I sell my third sister I'm studying, my mother doesn't love me, my mother doesn't love me"

"Father, how much is Qiaoxiang worth at such a young age?" Qiaomei ignored Qiaoming, but asked her father, "It costs a lot of money to study, how long can the money for selling Qiaoxiang last?"

Qiaomei really feels cold towards this younger brother. The sisters are very kind to this younger brother, but he wants to sell Qiaoxiang so that he can study, and he doesn't care about the relationship between siblings at all. Isn't this a white-eyed wolf?
Now it's like this, can the sisters still count on him when they grow up?

"I asked the people in Yazipu in the town that a well-behaved, sensible and good-looking girl like Qiaoxiang can be sold for eight or nine taels of silver. Let's save it, it's enough for Qiaoming to study for a year or two." Qiaoming Father May said.

Qiaomei's heart thawed a little, it turned out that her father was planning to sell Qiaoxiang to someone else!

She had heard before that some good-looking and docile little girls would be transferred to Huajie and Liuxiang in the hands of Renyazi. Has her father heard of it?
"Father, mother was pregnant in October, and you and I managed to bring up Qiaoxiang. Are you willing to sell her for only eight or nine taels of silver?" anger.

"Qiaomei." Qiaomei's mother couldn't understand the meaning of her daughter's words, so she couldn't help shouting.

Qiaomei's father also looked at her suspiciously, not understanding what she was trying to say?
"Father, I inquired with Cong Cong just now, and the price of young ones like Qiaoxiang is generally lower. If you are older, you can sell them for more than ten taels of silver in the county town."

As soon as Qiaomei finished speaking, Qiaomei Niang cried out: "Qiaomei~~"

Didn't they agree that the two of them would insist on not selling Qiaoxiang together? Why did this kid change his mind?
Qiaomei didn't look at Qiaomei's mother, but looked at her father and said her purpose: "Father, why don't you let me take Qiaoxiang's place, so that I can give Qiaoming a few taels of silver to study."

Qiaoming cried for a while, and laughed with tears still on his face: "Okay, okay, selling the eldest sister can give you a few taels of silver, dad, let's sell the eldest sister!"

Qiaomei Niang was filled with grief and anger, she put down Qiaoxiang and rushed over to hug Qiaomei and cried: "You girl, are you going to steal my mother's heart? My mother has already found you a good husband, why do you say such a thing?"

She can't blame the son for being ignorant, but if the son's father dares to betray Qiaomei, she will not forgive him!
Qiao Ming stared unhappily, tugged at his dazed father, pouted and said, "Father~~"

The mother didn't feel sorry for him, and she was reluctant to sell the eldest sister and the third sister, but in this family, only the father talked.

"Okay, okay, Dad knows." Dad Qiaomei touched his son's head, and looked at the eldest daughter with a complicated expression. Although he didn't say anything, the meaning couldn't be more obvious. He was moved by the extra taels of silver. .
