Farmer's Wife Has Space

Chapter 40 500 taels of betrothal gift

Knowing that Yue Lingzhi would not go to the capital, Gu Ying hugged her happily: "Sister Lingzhi, I will always treat you well!"

Yue Lingzhi touched her head and smiled silently, the little girl is really cute.

In the evening, Mrs. Liu came again, with Second Uncle Yue.

Yue Lingzhi thought to himself, this time it must be because of the snake containing the stone.

Unexpectedly, she guessed wrong again this time.

As soon as Mrs. Liu entered the house, she took Yue Lingzhi and left.

"Ganoderma lucidum, your second uncle Yue and I are here to pick you up! Ever since you came to the Gu family, your father scolded me as soon as he saw me, saying that you were young, so how could you be taken home casually? Today he insisted Ask me to take you home, or I won't let me in!"

Yue Lingzhi shook off her hand and looked at her coldly.

Liu's doing this must be because Lin Shaonan promised her a favor, asking her to take her home, and then her father can ask Lin Shaonan to take her away as a parent.

Hmph, the more he wanted to take her away, the more she refused to go!

Standing beside Yue Lingzhi, Gu Zheng also looked at Liu Shi coldly.

He also guessed Liu's purpose.

"If Lingzhi doesn't want to go back, you don't want to take her away!"

Seeing that Gu Zheng was vicious against the Liu family, Second Uncle Yue stepped forward and scolded Gu Zheng fiercely: "What are you doing, kid! Let me ask you, did you get my elder brother's permission to pick up Ganoderma lucidum? Did you give it to me?" Dowry money?"

At this time, there were more villagers watching the excitement at the door.

Second Uncle Yue thought he was justified, and his voice was louder: "No, right? Let everyone judge, without parental consent, without a dowry gift, and without choosing a date, just take it home casually, it doesn't count! We I must take the Ganoderma lucidum home today!"

Yue Lingzhi looked at Second Uncle Yue coldly. In the original owner's memory, Second Uncle Yue was different from his two younger brothers. He was extremely unfriendly to the original owner. He often scolded her and sometimes beat her.

She carefully recalled various details, and found that Second Uncle Yue started to hate the original owner on the third day after the original owner's grandfather died. The reason was that she saw Second Uncle Yue and Mrs. Liu hiding in the firewood room that night and didn't know what they were doing.

The original owner didn't know what they were doing, so he went in and called Mrs. Liu, but was slapped by Uncle Yue who came out.

The original owner was not yet seven years old at that time, she couldn't think of why she was beaten, but Yue Lingzhi could think that the lonely man and widow hiding in the firewood house at night might have adultery!

It must be very angry to be smashed.

When going to bed that night, Mrs. Liu gave the original owner a bowl of sugar water, and the original owner lost her voice the next morning.

Therefore, the original owner's voice might not be broken by crying, but made hoarse by Liu's poison!

Gu Zheng said with a cold face, "How much dowry do you want?"

He was wrong for not giving the bride price, and he is willing to give it again.

Mrs. Liu immediately said loudly: "At least 500 taels!"

The surrounding villagers talked a lot, they might as well grab it.

Gu Zheng was speechless, while Yue Lingzhi looked at Liu Shi with eyes like an idiot, thanks to her being able to speak.

But Mrs. Liu raised her voice: "Don't think that 500 taels is a lot! Ever since Grandpa Ganoderma lucidum passed away, she didn't know what kind of evil she had. She got a small illness every three days, and a serious illness every five days. All the money her grandfather earned for so many years was all It’s been spent on her, and we’re going to get some back.”

An old lady couldn't see it, so she interjected, "If you want Gu Zheng to take 500 taels, it depends on whether he can take it out!"

A little dumb, but also 500 taels of silver dowry, really ridiculous!
The villagers all agreed.

Liu explained: "I don't really want that much money from him. If he can't get it out, he can withdraw the marriage, and I can also return the 20 taels of fixed silver that his family gave at the beginning."
