Chapter 2541 Gu Dongxing Nan Mengyu The Third Life 25
What Shi thinks is: As long as you, Jin Sanniang, sign the contract, the You family will have many ways to achieve their goals. How the You family manipulates your daughter will have nothing to do with my eldest brother.
Seeing that her mother didn't want to pay back the money, Erya quickly gave her a look, quietly took out two golden peanuts from her purse and put them into Jin Sanniang's hand.
Jin Sanniang lowered her head and took a look, and found that what her daughter put into her hands was actually two golden peanuts. She was shocked at first, and then she was overjoyed. Each of these golden peanuts weighed one or two, and one tael of gold could be exchanged for twenty
Two silver coins!
The daughter gave her two golden peanuts, which were forty taels of silver. With these coins, this year's famine can be safely passed.
She wanted to ask her daughter where the golden peanut came from, but when Erya saw that she wanted to speak, she lowered her voice and said, "Go back and tell us."
Jin Sanniang immediately stopped asking her daughter, but took out the fifteen taels of silver given to her by Shi, held it up to show everyone: "This is the five years' wages Shi Shi lied to me about finding a job for my daughter."
Fifteen taels of silver. But since I know that this silver is not my daughter's salary for five years, but the silver from the sale of my daughter, I definitely can't take it.
Even if I starve to death, I, Jin Sanniang, cannot sell my daughter, so now in front of everyone, I will return the fifteen taels of silver to my sister-in-law, and I ask all the fellow villagers to bear witness!"
Jin Sanniang said, and put the fifteen taels of silver into Shi's outstretched hand!
At this moment, the expressions of many people in the crowd changed: She actually dared to give the money back!
Everyone knew about the second wife of the Nan family, but she relied on this money to survive the disaster years. They all thought that she would not pay back the money. At most, she would sign a contract with the You family, and she would only be a wedding bride, and would not risk her life or death.
After all, a girl from an ordinary family can be sold to a rich family, which is worth ten taels of silver. Selling a daughter can prevent the family from starving to death in disaster years. Even if Nan Zhongguang comes back, he will not complain about her.
Now seeing that she actually returned the money to the Shi family in a grand manner, everyone couldn't help but be very surprised. If she didn't sell Erya, how would she survive this year of famine?
As for borrowing money, she can just pay it back in normal times. Everyone is thinking about how to survive the famine this year. Who has the money to lend her?
Shi didn't expect that Jin Sanniang actually returned the money to her.
Her expression suddenly changed: she said those words just now because she was sure that Jin Sanniang would not pay back the money, so she wanted to take the opportunity to suppress her.
As for releasing the contract and re-signing it, it would give Jin Sanniang a step down. In fact, as long as she agreed to sell Erya, she had no intention of re-signing the contract.
Unexpectedly, Jin Sanniang actually returned the money stubbornly. What was she going to do?
According to the contract, if she goes back on her word, she has to pay back double the money to the You family! That's two hundred taels. Where can she get so much money to repay the liquidated damages?
She regretted it and quickly put the money into Jin Sanniang's hand: "How can this be done? We have already agreed on something, how can we go back on it? The contract has been signed, we can't go back on it!"
Jin Sanniang did not accept her money at all, and gave her money and others a hard push: "I have already said that even if I, Jin Sanniang, starve to death, I will not sell my daughter. I have not signed the contract.
I won't admit it!
As for the contract you signed, although you are not qualified to sell my daughter, you are still qualified to sell your own daughter."
After that, he took Erya and left: "Let's go home!"
Erya took Jin Sanniang's hand and went home without hesitation.
