Jiayin gently touched Liu Yu'er beside her with her elbow and motioned her to look at Fang Zhiqiang.

Liu Yu'er was still watching the excitement, but she was bumped by Jiayin's elbow and turned to look at Jiayin doubtfully.

Seeing Jiayin's expression, he looked in the direction she pointed and saw Fang Zhiqiang looking at the little girl for a moment.

He frowned for a while, pursed his lips for a while, and held his purse in his hand.

Liu Yu'er immediately understood that this guy wouldn't want to pay for this girl, would he?

Immediately afterwards, Liu Yu'er looked at the expressions of other people. They were all normal, no different from those watching the excitement around them. At most, they showed a little pity.

After all, the other party's father died in a foreign land and could only pay for his own burial. Everyone would feel pity, right?

Even if you don't really pay for the other person, it's only human nature to sigh pitifully.

However, Liu Yu'er looked at the price written on the ground and found it a bit strange.

If the price for buying a maid is normal, ten taels of silver would be enough, and it would still be a life-long buyout.

This girl actually wants twenty taels, I don’t know what she’s thinking?

Do you want to wait for a young master from a rich family to buy it?

No wonder Liu Yuer thinks this way, the asking price is so high, ordinary people must not be able to afford it.

At least it dispelled the idea of ​​many bachelors wanting to buy her back as their wife.

With twenty taels of silver, what kind of wife can’t be found?

There is no need to buy one that you don’t know the basics of. If it runs away, wouldn’t it be worth the loss?

To be honest, Jiayin didn’t know why the other party charged so much.

But since the other party has meritorious deeds and is related to Fang Zhiqiang, it doesn't matter if he buys it. There is a bond between them anyway.

Jiayin walked directly to Fang Zhiqiang, pulled Fang Zhiqiang's sleeve, and quietly stuffed two ingots of ten taels of silver into his hand.

Fang Zhiqiang was brought back to his senses by the good news, and suddenly felt a coldness in his hands. When he looked down, the other hand holding the purse subconsciously let go, and the purse fell to the ground!

Fang Zhiqiang hurriedly picked it up, and then turned sideways to block the good news. He still understood the principle of not revealing wealth.

Sister Jiayin was hanging around here clearly holding two large silver ingots, and she was not afraid of being noticed.

There are so many beggars in Wuling City, and there are probably no shortage of thieves.

In this regard, Fang Zhiqiang really guessed wrong.

Although there are more beggars in Wuling City, there are really no thieves.

Because being a beggar means you can get money in exchange for food and drink, who would take the risk to steal?

If you are caught, you will only get a light beating. If you are sent to jail, you will not only get a beating, but you may also be exposed to the whole city.

At that time, you will have no choice but to leave your hometown, and you will not be able to live in the local area at all.

Fang Zhiqiang looked at Jiayin, then at the silver in his hand, and whispered: "Sister Jiayin, are you asking me to buy this girl?"

Looking at the exact amount of silver, Fang Zhigang knew what the good news meant.

To be honest, Fang Zhiqiang wanted to buy it with his own money.

All their money was with Jiayin, and all he had with him were scattered silver taels for emergencies. The total amount was less than five taels of silver, so he hesitated.

Fang Zhiqiang also knew that the other party's price was a bit too expensive, but when he saw the little girl's eyes for the first time, he couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat, and he couldn't move his eyes away.

Fang Zhiqiang felt an impulse in his heart, as if a voice kept urging him to buy her, buy her!"

Jiayin nodded and said, "Brother Zhiqiang, you also know that I can read faces."

Fang Zhiqiang nodded. Of course he knew that Jiayin and Feng Daoren had been discussing it together for so long.

Moreover, Sister Jiayin taught Feng Taoist the art of physiognomy.

Fang Zhiqiang's mind turned around and he understood what Jiayin meant, and his eyes suddenly glowed with dazzling light!

"Sister Jiayin, what do you mean..."

Jiayin nodded, confirming his unfinished words.

Fang Zhiqiang's eyebrows were filled with joy, and his whole expression became alive.

Taking the two ingots of silver, he turned around and strode up, handing them directly to the girl. Fang Zhiqiang didn't know what to say next.

It felt a bit abrupt to directly say I want to buy you. I wonder if the other party would think he was not serious, but she was indeed selling her body to bury her father.

He simply said: "Take this silver and bury your father."

Fang Zhiqiang felt that he should help bury the other party's father. After all, the other party was a weak woman.

Just like what is written on the ground, how can a person who has left his hometown find a place to bury his father?

Even if you have some silver, it's only enough to buy a coffin. You can't just find a place to bury it, right?

The little girl raised her eyes to look at Fang Zhiqiang, and was stunned by the burning heat in his eyes, as if she had been burned, and quickly looked away.

Then the little girl knelt straight and kowtowed to Fang Zhiqiang, "Thank you for buying the little girl, I will definitely serve you well in the future.

Of the twenty taels of silver, ten taels were used to buy a coffin for my father, and the other ten taels were to pay off debts.

My father fell ill when he came here. After spending all his savings and having no money for treatment, he became a doctor at Jishengtang and treated my father free of charge.

This is the money we owe for medicine, which is almost ten taels, so the little girl has raised her worth so high."

The people around him suddenly realized that the other party was not waiting for a rich young man.

Just because if you sell yourself cheaply, people won't be able to pay you back.

Of course, everyone also knew that since Dr. Jishengtang dared to let them borrow money, he never thought of asking them to pay it back, so he thought he was doing a good deed.

After all, Jishengtang is a famous medical clinic in their Wuling City, and it is also half a charity hall.

The reason why it is said to be a half-kindness hall is that if a person who cannot afford medical treatment or is really poor goes there to see a doctor, not only will he be treated free of charge, but he will also be given medicinal materials.

Therefore, the people in the city called Jishengtang Jishantang.

However, it is rare for this little girl to repay her kindness so well. Some of the bachelors who were watching at first felt a little regretful.

If such a woman were to be married back as a wife, she would definitely not run away.

It's too late to say this now, it has already been bought.

The little girl scratched the words on the ground with her feet and crossed them out.

Fang Zhiqiang said: "Sir, please wait here for a moment. There is a coffin shop not far away. I will buy a coffin for my father."

Fang Zhiqiang said directly: "I'll go with you. My brothers are also here. Let them help you look at your father's body here."

Only then did the little girl realize that Fang Zhiqiang was not alone, and there were brothers behind him.

Smiling and hugging the others, Fang Zhixuan and the others took a step forward politely and said hello to the little girl.

After Fang Zhiqiang and the little girl left, people gradually dispersed when they saw that there was no more excitement to watch.

There were only one or two idle men left wandering around, wanting to see what would happen next.

Fang Zhiqiang followed the little girl to the coffin shop not far away, while Liu Yuer walked to Fang Zhiwu and whispered to him.

Fang Zhiwu looked surprised, and then whispered a few more words to Fang Zhiwen.

Fang Zhiwen was not surprised. He thought he had seen some clues just now.

The same goes for Fang Zhiyuan and Fang Zhixin. The Fang brothers are both relatively smart people.

Only Fang Zhigang was confused and didn't know what they were muttering about, until Fang Zhixin couldn't stand it anymore and told him again.

Fang Zhi just looked suddenly enlightened and wanted to say something, but Fang Zhixin covered his mouth.

This is outside, so it's better not to make people laugh. This guy can yell about anything.

Fang Zhigang pointed to his mouth, shook his head, indicating that he would not speak loudly, and then Fang Zhixin let him go.

Fang Zhigang asked for confirmation in a low voice. Seeing Fang Zhixin's serious face, he rolled his eyes with an expression on his face that he was waiting for something good to happen.

After waiting for a while, I saw Fang Zhiqiang pushing a cart over, followed by what seemed to be the coffin shop clerk.

The little girl was walking to one side, peeking at Fang Zhiqiang's majestic back from time to time.

Fang Zhiwen raised his eyebrows with a clear look on his face. It seemed that it was not Fang Zhiqiang's wishful thinking, so that's fine.

If the other party is unwilling and it is just wishful thinking of Fang Zhiqiang, even if he gives the twenty taels of silver to the little girl, he cannot take her with him.

If we get along day and night, even if our mutual ambitions are strong and our love is deeply rooted, nothing will come of it in the end.

Now it seems like it's a matter of mutual love, so that's easy to say.

Their ideas were similar to Jiayin's. Even if the other person was bought and his parents were dead, as long as Fang Zhiqiang liked him.

In this way, he has no worries and can live a life with Fang Zhiqiang wholeheartedly. This may not be a good thing, and he may live a better life than others.

Fang Zhiqiang pushed the coffin over, and Fang Zhiwen and others stepped forward to help lift the body of the little girl's deceased father into the coffin.

Because he had left his hometown, he had no relatives, friends or tribesmen, and could not organize any funeral arrangements. He could only find a place to bury him hastily and bury him as soon as possible.

When Fang Zhiqiang was at the coffin shop, he had already inquired about a public cemetery at the foot of Wuling Mountain.
