"The funnier thing is later. I said, I don't want to be a concubine or a maid, so I asked myself to leave. As a result, the Chen family said that I should pay them two taels of silver for eating at his house these years. Lots of food.

Conscience of heaven and earth! Even if you are a maid, you still need to have a monthly salary of [-] yuan, right? I do more work than a maid, and I eat less than a maid! Every meal they served was white rice, and I was either a sweet potato or a potato. Do you think I should pay them two taels of silver? "

Su Mulan spoke clearly and had a loud voice. With just a few words, the Chen family could not stand down.

"Is this how your family treats their daughter-in-law? Well, my child bride is not a daughter-in-law, but a maid, so should I pay the monthly payment?"

Su Mulan was reasonable and made some people nod along with her words.

Chen Xinglian screamed: "You damn girl, if my family hadn't taken you in, you would have starved to death."

"If you hadn't wanted to marry me as a child bride, my parents wouldn't have only wanted that one tael of silver! Can one tael of silver buy a maid? Why don't we go to a wealthy family in the county and ask? If my parents didn't want to buy a maid, If I find a way out, I won't covet your mere one tael of silver!

A wealthy family can buy a maid for only four or five taels of silver? Besides, a maid from a wealthy family only has a piece of sweet potato for every meal and works like a mule non-stop every day? Do maids from wealthy families get monthly money and rewards? "

The series of questions confused the Chen family.

An aunt in the crowd responded: "Girl Su is right. My cousin's granddaughter can't support herself and is sold to a wealthy family as a maid. Not to mention getting four taels of silver, the girl still has five taels of silver every month." I have saved all the hundred cents to give to her parents."

Su Mulan smiled kindly at her, then turned to the Chen family: "Let me tell you clearly in front of everyone today, am I the daughter-in-law or the maid?"

"Li Zheng is coming." Someone suddenly shouted.

Su Mulan saw more and more people coming to watch the fun, including Li Zheng.

It was a middle-aged man who looked somewhat majestic.

"What's going on here?"

In fact, he had already heard everything.

Mrs. Wu quickly said with a smile on her face: "Li Zheng, you came at the right time. This dead girl in my family is going to cause trouble. Come and make the decision for me..."

Li Zheng looked at Su Mulan majestically: "What are you making a fuss about?"

"Uncle Li Zheng, the Chen family doesn't treat me as a human being and wants to make me a concubine or a maid, but I don't want to. I want to leave on my own accord."

Mrs. Wu was anxious: "My family bought you for one tael of silver, how could you leave just now?"

"Can one tael of silver buy a concubine or a maid?"

Su Mulan looked excited and asked sharply.

She stared at Chen Xingxue again: "Master Xiucai, I am a good citizen! Your family wants to buy concubines and maids, isn't it because they want to buy and sell them by force? Uncle Li Zheng, if the Chen family wants to do this, I will I want to go to the county government office to play drums."

The crowd burst into exclamation, this girl even knows how to play the drums?

Chen Xingxue also looked at her in surprise!

Is this the real her? In the past, she had always been a lowly person just to marry him?

Su Mulan added: "Under the emperor's feet, the sun and the moon are shining brightly. Not only will I go to the county government office to play drums, but I will also go to the county school to consult the mountain chief and ask him if he knows there is such a student under his seat?"

The chatter in the crowd became louder, Chen Xingxue's face turned red, and everyone in the Chen family panicked.

"Then...we let you go, and you return my two taels of silver."

Mrs. Wu still refused to give up and was thinking about the two taels of silver.

"Give me the wages I earned from working in your house for eight years, five hundred yuan a month! After the settlement is clear, I will give you two taels of silver."

Su Mulan turned to Li Zheng again: "Uncle Li Zheng, since the Chen family doesn't recognize me as their daughter-in-law, should they settle the wages to me?"

Li Zheng was also in a dilemma. He had to say that Su Yatou always spoke well and well-founded.

"Whether your Chen family considers me a daughter-in-law or a part-time worker, there should be a name for it, right? Otherwise, let a little girl like me work in your family for eight years without knowing it?"

The Chen family started to panic at this time. They should not have made such a big fuss if they had known earlier.

If anything happens, you should coax her.

Who knew it would become such a commotion in front of others?

"If you treat me as your daughter-in-law, you can divorce me or divorce me, as long as there is a document! I don't care. I don't want to get married in the future anyway, but you, Chen Xiucai, are just a second-hand commodity."

Here it comes again, this is the third time Chen Xingxue has heard "second-hand goods"!

The crowd burst into laughter.

Chen Xingxue passed the scholar examination, which is the pride of the whole village. Who would have thought that he would be a "second-hand goods" in the eyes of this yellow-haired girl?

The grandfather of the Chen family stood out of the queue with a gloomy face: "Old man, are you a deadbeat? Give her a tael of silver and let her go."

When Wu was still waiting to say anything, Old Chen stared at her sinisterly.

If this stupid woman continues to cause trouble, will her eldest grandson's reputation be lost?

He turned to Su Mulan again: "Girl Su, when I saw you in the past, I thought you were a good person. Today, I, the Chen family, are kind-hearted and will give you a tael of silver. From now on, we will never have contact with you until we die."

Su Mulan snorted coldly: "You don't need to think that I am a good person! You have exploited me for eight years for only one tael of silver, and you think you have a good heart? You have taken advantage, and you still want to make a big deal? It's very hypocritical! Today I don’t want to be entangled anymore. I’m a good-natured person and I want to let you Chen family go. Otherwise..."

Everyone wants to know her unfinished words.

Otherwise, you have to go to the county government to play drums, or go to the academy to file a complaint.

"Today I am here with my neighbors, just to bear witness to me. The Chen family has to give me a piece of paper to make it clear that we will not have any contact with each other until we die, and that men and women will have nothing to do with each other. I am not your Chen family either. What kind of child bride is she? She is just a helper for your family, and she gets paid for eight years, one tael of silver!"

The Chen family was still discussing in low voices, but Su Mulan smiled again and said, "What? Can't bear to part with you? Are you afraid that I will make trouble again in the future?"

The Chen family was shocked and unanimously decided to respond quickly and send this plague god away.

Chen Xingxue felt aggrieved, and Old Chen whispered: "Brother Xue, you are a jade bottle, and she is rubble. Can you confront her head-on with yourself? Send her away quickly. You will have a bright future in the future."

Chen Xingxue woke up with a start and finished writing the paperwork.

Su Mulan took it in her hand and looked at it. She knew all the traditional Chinese characters.

Chen Xinglian laughed and said: "You are just pretending, can you still understand?"

Su Mulan handed the paper to Li Zheng and read it. If there was no problem, both parties signed and fingerprinted.

What everyone didn't expect was that Su Mulan also wrote her own name. Although the words were a little crooked, she could actually write it!

"What's so strange about this? I have learned a few words under the influence of Chen Xiucai's family. If I were a man, it would not be impossible for me to become a scholar."
