It's possible that the rest of Lao Yuan's family didn't know, but these two people definitely knew.

However, she, a young person, had a hard time dealing with these two old men and women, and she felt a little embarrassed. If she had done anything wrong, the old couple would have been ruined.

But these two old guys were so stubborn that they just didn't speak.

Xu Jiaojiao's eyes flashed, and she came up with a compromise.

"Stop arguing, Lao Yuan, please take us to Sanya. We will pay the ransom of ten taels of silver without you having to pay, okay?"

Isn't selling girls just for money?

First use money to lure the old Yuan family and deceive Sanya's whereabouts.

After the person is found, everything can be said easily.

If you give me money, can you get it back again?

Xu Zhang didn't know what Xu Jiaojiao meant, so she objected, "Old girl, why should we pay the ransom..."

Xu Jiaojiao winked at her and said, "Mom, Sanya's safety is important, we should waste money to eliminate the disaster. These ten taels of silver were given to Yuan Chunhua and Li Fei, but Yuan Chunhua took this and Li Fei,

I’m not allowed to have any more children from my second brother. Do you, the Yuan family, agree?”

Mrs. Xu Zhang frowned, and the old lady winked at her. She must have other plans!

But what the old girl said was right and reasonable...

How could there be any reason for the old Xu family to give money away after they sold it to them?

Forget it, Mrs. Xu Zhang opened her mouth out of trust in Xu Jiaojiao, and then fell silent.

Xu Youde also didn't understand. There was no reason why he thought it would be better to listen to Xu Jiaojiao.

Erya also opened her mouth wide and looked unconvinced.

When Lao Yuan's family over there heard this, they couldn't believe it, such a good thing could happen? Lao Xu's family is indeed very wealthy!

They all looked at the old leader subconsciously.

The old Yuantou rolled his eyes and said, "Ten taels of silver and divorce fees are too little, it should be twenty taels, no, thirty taels! We Chunhua don't want the girl to follow He Li."

Xu Jiaojiao pretended to be in pain, "Thirty taels is too much, let me discuss it with my parents."

Xu Zhang and Xu Youde immediately came over and the three of them walked aside.

Xu Youde whispered, "Old girl, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd?"

"Father and mother, please listen to me first, don't say anything, save Sanya first, and then we can't delay it. Sanya is from a little girl's family, so it's easy to suffer... When we rescue people, I will naturally find a way to make Yuanshi

You can spit it out again or spit out more."

Even though Xu Youde and Xu Zhang were full of doubts, for Sanya's sake, they had no choice but to give up.

The discussion is over.

Xu Jiaojiao spoke again, "My parents reluctantly agreed. Thirty taels will be thirty taels. But we don't take that much money with us now. I only have twenty taels of silver with me. I can give you Yuan Chunhua."

An IOU..."

The old Yuan family suddenly beamed with joy.

The two girls were sold for only twenty taels of silver. If Xu Jiaojiao was willing to pay thirty taels, that would be a huge profit.

How much risk does it take to sell a girl? They are always prepared to make trouble with Lao Xu's family, and if people find out, they will also have a bad reputation.

Now you can easily get thirty taels without selling it. It is also called He Li Fei, so why not do it?

The old Yuantou took twenty taels of silver from Xu Jiaojiao and borrowed paper and pen. Xu Jiaojiao wrote him the amount of ten taels of silver he owed.

Yuan Chunhua was in a state of confusion throughout the whole process. She didn't know why Xu Jiaojiao gave her so much divorce fees.

Based on her understanding of Xu Jiaojiao, she felt it was unlikely. Xu Jiaojiao was not that easy to talk to and could suffer a lot. Seeing the old Yuantou and Mrs. Yuan so happy, she couldn't say anything.

After the formalities were completed, Mrs. Yuan said with a pleasant smile, "You, the old Xu family, are righteous, so we will not be in trouble. It turns out that Sanya also has the blood of our old Yuan family flowing in her body. She is a piece of meat that fell from my family's Chunhua, and it is also ours."

My dear, distressed girl, tell her that this is something that people have no choice but to do. My Chunhua cried so hard that her eyes almost went blind. She is fine now. Everyone is happy. Old man, please quickly bring someone back to bring Sanya back. Sanya is a little younger.

, not suitable for marrying so early."

Lao Yuantou put away the money and the IOU and said with a smile, "I can't walk anymore. The road is too far. It's about thirty or forty miles away. Yuan Qiang sent someone away yesterday and hasn't come back yet. It's Laoshan'ao.

Over there, there is a village called Kouzi Village. The widower’s surname is Tian and his name is Tian Ergou. If you lead people to chase him, you will say that it was my old leader who made the announcement and wanted to redeem him..."

As soon as they finished speaking, Xu Youde and Xu Zhang's faces turned ugly.

The voices of the neighbors talking, "My God, it's so far away. I've heard of that Kouzi Village. It's also called Coffin Village. It's really in the mountains. The people there are poor and savage. No one wants to marry there."

, they all rely on buying a daughter-in-law to pass on the seeds."

"No, they are all like savages. There are quite a few who beat their wives to death. Not to mention that, many of them are brothers who share the same wife and don't have the money to buy more..."

"Many women either died giving birth to children or were abused to death by men..."

Xu Jiaojiao glanced coldly at Lao Yuantou and his wife, who could not help but shrink their noses when people talked about them.

"Dad, you're not going. I'm going with some of my brothers."

At this time, the men in Xujiacun went to the mountains to look for Sanya last night, but failed, and now they are all coming back one after another.

Erlang and Shilang are also back.

After hearing what happened in Kouzi Village, their eyes were red and they wanted to find the old Yuantou and his wife desperately, but Xu Jiaojiao stopped them.

"Let's find Sanya first."

Xu Youde took a long breath and said, "Well, let's find Sanya first. You young people are fast on your feet, so go first. We will go to the town later to rent a carriage and take the main road to get there."

"OK."

Xu Jiaojiao, Erlang and the men from Xujiacun rushed to Nakouzi Village without saying a word!

***

Xujiacun, old Xujia.

Luo Shi had just finished cooking and asked Sanlang to bring a bowl of egg custard to Xu Laoer. Xu Laoer had to be fed by others. Sanlang was his eldest nephew and there was no one at home. Sanlang fed Xu Laoer, who was better than Luo Shi.

It is more appropriate to feed the younger siblings.

Of course, Luo Shi is a lazy person. If he can be lazy, he will be lazy. If he can't be lazy, he will bite the bullet and do it if he has no other choice.

Both Wulang and Liulang sat obediently at the small kitchen table, eating porridge, steamed buns and vegetables.

During this period, something happened at home, and the cooking chores were left to Luo Shi. During this special period, it was not the same as before. Instead of receiving miscellaneous rice and noodles from Xu Zhang every day, he received several in one go.

Damn it, put it in the kitchen. After eating, Luo Shi will pick it up.

Today, there were not many people eating at home, so Luo made some extra so that the girls could eat. Usually, Xu Zhang only gave them one steamed bun, and they could eat two. The vegetables were from the vegetable field.
