Quick wear is not a cannon fodder

At that time, Liu Dalang and his wife were secretly happy. Mrs. Liu confiscated 10,000 taels from them, leaving them with some money to use for their children in the future.

Although it's not much, probably only a few hundred taels, mosquito meat is also meat.

As a result, Liu Sanlang only gave a small amount, and Grandma Liu San's dowry was even more. Obviously, they still had a lot of money on their hands. This made Liu Dalang and his wife, who originally thought they had taken advantage, become angry instantly, so He came to question him.

And the Aunt Liu they are talking about can be regarded as an old man next to Mrs. Liu, but she cannot be regarded as a confidant, because if she were a confidant, even if the Liu family is poor now, they will not sell her at this time, because Liu No matter what, Madam, she must leave one or two people to wait on her. Otherwise, a person like her who is used to being waited on will not be able to accept that no one will wait on her and she will do things by herself.

Yes, the mother Liu who spread the news only mentioned this because she was leaving.

And the reason why I say that is because Mrs. Liu used to be in the capital, and she was not sold. Now that she has come to such a poor place, because she has no money to use, she wants to sell their family. Naturally, the people who are being sold are also from this county. People, they used to live in the capital, so naturally they looked down upon this rural place, because they were so angry that after Mrs. Liu changed hands, they told Liu Dalang and others about it.

Of course, there was An Ran's push behind this, and people told them that since they were angry, they would tell them about it and make the Liu family chaotic. As revenge, they were no longer under Mrs. Liu's hands anyway, so they were not afraid to speak out. , what can Mrs. Liu do to them.

They thought this was the truth, so they did it this way.

In fact, Mrs. Liu did not say that she would definitely sell off the property of Nanny Liu and her family. At that time, she also said that as long as Nanny Liu could come up with the ransom money, she could be merciful and return the sale deed. However, this was not because Nanny Liu and her family were reluctant to spend money, so Didn't you give the money to Mrs. Liu, so you can only transfer it to the next owner.

In fact, it’s not that Mother Liu’s family is reluctant to spend money, but that Mrs. Liu is asking for too much ransom money in order to make money, which will drain the family fortune of Mother Liu’s family. If she wants so much money, Mother Liu’s family will naturally They didn't want to. After all, they had saved the money all their lives. How could they be willing to give it to Mrs. Liu? Then it would be equivalent to a few members of the family working for Mrs. Liu for so many years. So they would rather change hands than take advantage of Mrs. Liu.

Seeing that their family was unwilling to pay the redemption money and would rather change hands, Mrs. Liu was naturally unhappy when she did not receive a large amount of redemption money, so she deliberately sold the family to a family with a bad reputation.

Either selling the family separately would damage Mrs. Liu's reputation and prevent her from walking around in this small county. Otherwise, Mrs. Liu would sell them separately whenever she got angry.

In fact, in order to deal with Grandma Liu and her family, Mrs. Liu could sell them far away, to a more remote place. But if she deals with them in this way, she won’t be able to sell them for much money, because there is no way to sell them in a poor place. The price is high. Some people know that the master wants to punish the servants and deliberately sell them far away. They want the master to pay them so they are willing to sell them far away. Their reasons are also good. They say they are selling. They are far away and they want travel expenses.

Mrs. Liu sells people for money, so she will naturally not have trouble with money. Otherwise, the fate of Grandma Liu and her family would be really hard to predict.

Otherwise, buying and selling people in ancient times was not good. The life and death of the servants depended on whether the master was kind or not. If someone was not kind, his life's destiny would be ruined by him.

Seeing that Mrs. Liu was angry and sold them to a family with a bad reputation in the county, it was normal for Grandma Liu to tell what they knew in order to retaliate against Mrs. Liu.

At this moment, Mrs. Liu listened to her son's question and couldn't help but scolded that Aunt Liu in her heart. She felt that the other party was really bad.

But no matter how much she scolds, it's useless, because Aunt Liu has told what she did back then. All she can do now is to clear up the rest and settle the family's complaints. If not, the family will probably fall apart. .

At that moment, Mrs. Liu listened to Liu Dalang's question and said: "How can there be such a thing? This is because the old godly woman was not happy that I sold her to a family with a bad reputation, so she deliberately framed me."

All Mrs. Liu can do now is deny it. After all, she can't admit it. If she admits it, she will be in trouble later.

But will her denial help? It's definitely useless. Liu Dalang and his wife are not fools and would believe what she said.

So Liu Dalang and his wife said at that moment: "I don't care how you help the third child, just give me the difference of three thousand taels, otherwise, this matter will never be finished!"

After hearing Liu Dalang's words, Mrs. Liu's face suddenly changed color and said: "What's wrong, you still want to steal your mother's money?!"

Liu Dalang said: "I don't care about the situation, so I don't apologize to us. In turn, I blame us for being a money grab for my children. I'm not your son. Only the third child is your son. That's fine. From now on, you can It’s up to the third brother to take care of it, and we, the couple, won’t care about it.”

Mrs. Liu's expression changed after hearing this.

If she had been threatened by Liu Dalang when her husband was still an official, she would naturally not be afraid of this, because even if Liu Dalang ignored her, she would still be able to live a good life with her servants taking care of her and the third child.

But now, she has no money, otherwise she wouldn't have sold those servants. She is just sitting there with nothing, and she doesn't know when she will run out of money, and she will have to rely on her son to support her.

Although she loves the third child, she also knows that eggs cannot be put in the same basket. After all, if the third child becomes estranged from her and does not support her - although she loves the third child, she also knows that since ancient times, she has always looked down upon her. There are endless wolf children. If the third child she loves becomes a white-eyed wolf and the eldest brother doesn't take care of her, wouldn't she be in trouble? This was also the reason why her expression changed.

But it was impossible for her to give three thousand taels of silver to the boss, because where did she get the money?

In the past few years, living in this small county town, such a large family has only been able to make out the expenses. Before, she was not willing to live a hard life. The basic necessities of life were similar to those in the capital. She had already used up the little private money she had left.

She naturally knew that it was impossible to just sit back and have nothing, but she couldn't bear it. Everyone couldn't bear the downgrade of food, clothing, housing and transportation, so at the beginning, they still spent as much as in the capital. Many people still had sweet dreams, thinking that Mr. Liu could still recover.

But several years have passed, recovery is far away, and all the money on hand has been spent. This makes Mrs. Liu anxious, otherwise she would not sell the remaining servants around her.

In fact, if you had known that there was no way to recover, you should have used the remaining money to buy some land and collect some income every year, instead of keeping it on hand and using it all the time.

But there wasn’t much money at that time. Even if I bought a field, I wouldn’t have much income in a year, which wouldn’t be enough to cover the expenses of a large family. So even if I buy a field, I guess it won’t work.
