Twins from the 1970s, if you disagree, I'll slap you.

Chapter 19 The shrew comes demanding her husband

Watching Wu Tianlong angrily leave, Liu Tianyuan and Fu Jinfeng instinctively wanted to go forward and stop him.

In their eyes, the Liu family could rise to the top in one step by relying on Wu Tianlong's wild ginseng to save their daughter's life and marry her into the wealthy Wu family.

Although the Liu family is a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners and owns a pharmaceutical factory, they are still far inferior to the Wu family.

The old man held Lu Ye's hand tightly, his face full of gratitude, and said earnestly, "Young man, let's do as we agreed before. We'll take this century-old wild ginseng, and the Liu family will buy all the medicinal herbs you have on a long-term basis!"

He turned his head and pointed to Liu Tianyuan, who looked reluctant, and added, "This is my son, Liu Tianyuan. He owns the pharmaceutical factory. He'll buy all the medicinal herbs you have in the future!"

"Let's sign the contract now, no delays whatsoever!"

Liu Tianyuan frowned and muttered under his breath, "Dad, I have a regular supplier on my end, and we've been cooperating for several years..."

"Shut up!"

Liu Zhengfeng interrupted him sharply, his face darkening: "No matter what, this young man saved Nian Nian's life. This is an immense favor, shouldn't we repay it?"

"Also, take out whatever spare cash you have!"

Liu Tianyuan was filled with resentment, but dared not disobey the old man's wishes, so he could only reluctantly take out a bank card from his wallet.

"There's 100,000 yuan in this card; it's the pharmaceutical company's profit this year, that's all..."

Before he could finish speaking, Liu Zhengfeng snatched the bank card and shoved it into Lu Ye's hand.

"This..." Lu Ye was also taken aback.

Liu Zhengfeng said, "Young man, take this 100,000 yuan!"

"You saved my precious granddaughter's life. This kindness is priceless. This money is just a small token of our appreciation."

"Don't worry, my son owns a pharmaceutical factory, he's rich! Don't be shy with me!"

"Draft the acquisition contract now, and leave all the medicinal herbs you brought today. Don't let your trip be in vain!"

Next, despite Liu Tianyuan's reluctance, under the old man's insistence, he still drafted a medicinal herb purchase contract on the spot and signed it with Lu Ye.

The medicinal herbs that Lu Ye brought had undergone secondary growth in the dimensional space and were of excellent quality. He paid 500 yuan in cash on the spot.

Keep in mind that in the 1970s, 500 yuan was a huge sum of money, while an average worker's monthly salary was only about 30 yuan.

With the addition of the bank card containing 100,000 yuan, Lu Ye's trip to the county town was truly fruitful.

Old man Liu Zhengfeng sighed, "Over the years, we have sought medical treatment everywhere, hoping to cure Niannian's illness, but to no avail."

"Later I studied a prescription and found that all the other medicinal materials were available except for wild ginseng that was over 80 years old."

"Thanks so much to you this time, for bringing over a century-old ginseng. Thank you so much today!"

He turned to Liu Nian and beckoned, "Nian Nian, come quickly and thank your benefactor!"

Liu Nian walked over slowly and bowed deeply to Lu Ye.

Lu Ye quickly reached out to support her, his fingertips accidentally touching her wrist, only to find it icy cold. Her body was weaker than he had imagined.

Liu Zhengfeng then realized he hadn't asked Lu Ye's name yet, and quickly asked, "What a forgetful me! I was so happy I didn't even ask you, young man, what's your name?"

"My name is Lu Ye."

"Young friend Lu, you are welcome to visit Jishetang often from now on. My doors will always be open for you! Please feel free to ask if you need anything!"

After chatting for a few more minutes, Lu Ye saw that it was getting late, so he got up to say goodbye, pocketed his cash and bank cards, and headed towards the village.

On the other side, Chen Dachuan returned to the village with the villagers he had hired and Wang Erya, and said to everyone, "You can come back to my house with me and wait for the remaining 4 yuan of wages."

"Once Lao Lu... once Lu Ye returns, I'll pay you all right away! Don't worry, you won't be shortchanged a single penny of what I promised!"

As soon as the group arrived at Sun Yanhua's house, they heard a series of sharp curses coming from the yard, causing a great commotion.

Chen Dachuan quickly rushed in and saw Zhou Xiaoqin standing with her hands on her hips, throwing a tantrum in the yard.

Her husband, Wang Tiegang, stood to the side, shrinking back and not daring to speak.

"Sun Yanhua! Call those two adopted bastards back right now!"

Zhou Xiaoqin shouted at the top of her lungs, spitting as she spoke: "You've kidnapped my daughter Er Ya! This is human trafficking! It's illegal!"

"You've ruined my daughter's wedding tomorrow! I'll make your family regret this!"

A number of neighbors gathered around the courtyard to watch the commotion, whispering and discussing amongst themselves, wondering what had happened.

Sun Yanhua stood in the middle of the courtyard, looking completely bewildered, not knowing what was going on.

"Xiaoqin, what do you mean by that? What do you mean, 'kidnapped Erya'? Explain yourself clearly!"

Sun Yanhua asked, frowning.

Zhou Xiaoqin launched into another tirade: "What are you pretending for! It was your two bastards who kidnapped my daughter, Wang Erya!"

"Fellow villagers, come and be the judge! Those two dragged Er Ya away right in front of me!"

She shouted and slapped her thigh, wailing, "You even hit me! This is outrageous! Sun Yanhua, you have to give me back my daughter today!"

As she spoke, Zhou Xiaoqin, like a shrew, charged at Sun Yanhua with bared teeth and claws, ready to attack.

"Stop it right now!!!"

With a loud shout, Chen Dachuan rushed forward and shoved Zhou Xiaoqin, causing her to stagger back two steps.

He quickly turned to look at Sun Yanhua and asked with concern, "Aunt Sun, are you alright?"

"I'm fine," Sun Yanhua shook her head, still looking puzzled. "Da Chuan, what exactly happened? Why did she say that Er Ya was kidnapped by you?"

"Aunt Sun, don't worry, I'll take care of this."

When Zhou Xiaoqin saw Chen Dachuan return and then caught a glimpse of Wang Erya behind him, she immediately pointed at Wang Erya and started shouting at the onlookers.

"Look everyone! I wasn't lying! He's the one who kidnapped my daughter! Look, they came back together! Is there any doubt about it?"

Chen Dachuan stepped forward, staring intently at Zhou Xiaoqin, and said coldly, "Did I call that arresting? I was saving Er Ya! Don't you know how good you are to Er Ya?"

As he spoke, he changed the subject, looked at the surrounding crowd, and instantly switched to his dramatic mode, his tone filled with grief and indignation: "As you all know, Zhou Xiaoqin has a very serious preference for sons over daughters."

"He always beats and scolds Er Ya, and never gives her a kind look!"

"Today I was passing by the foot of the mountain when I saw her riding on Er Ya's back. She raised her hand and slapped Er Ya across the face. She hit her so hard that Er Ya cried her heart out!"

"Tell me, is this something a biological mother would do? At that time, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I grabbed Er Ya and left."

"If you think I'm kidnapping Er Ya, then go ahead and report it to the joint defense team and have me arrested!"

"Besides, I've already brought Er Ya back safely, so how could you say I kidnapped her?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xiaoqin exclaimed, "You little rascal, you're talking complete nonsense!"

When did she slap Er Ya while riding on her back?

You were the one who slapped me!

"You...you little brat! You're talking nonsense! Back then you..."
