Chapter 436: The Poor and Powerful Little Medical Girl and the Pampered Prince 12
The aunt wanted to escape, but she was frightened by the silver needle in Su Wanti's hand just now, and now her legs were weak and she couldn't move.
Moreover, Su Wanti was staring at her with burning eyes, blocking her way, and she couldn't leave.
She pursed her lips tightly and didn't want to speak, but for some reason, the words came out like firecrackers, uncontrollably and crackling.
"It was the idea of my parents-in-law and your uncles. I just asked Matchmaker Li to come over."
"My parents-in-law said that since my brother-in-law is gone, his house and land cannot be given to the third son's wife and children."
"They said they wanted to sell the third son's wife and children, and then my family and the second son's family would each have one of the three houses, and the one in the middle would be for my parents-in-law. My family and the second son's family would each have one mu of land in Dongshan."
Hearing this, Zhang Hehua felt bitter in her mouth and her heart ached.
"My parents-in-law want to sell our family out? Is Matchmaker Li really the human trafficker you hired?" Her voice was trembling.
The head of the village's face also turned ugly. It turned out that the woman kneeling on the ground was Li the matchmaker.
Ordinary villagers may not know much about it. As the head of the village, he often meets other heads of the village, so he has heard of the name of Li Matchmaker.
Matchmaker Li is from Lijiazhuang. On the surface, she is a matchmaker, but in fact, she is doing an illegitimate business in private.
No one in Lijiazhuang and the surrounding villages asked her to be a matchmaker. Shanyan Village was dozens of miles away from Lijiazhuang, and the villagers here would not go out of their way to look for her for matchmaking.
"Why did you call her here?" The head of the village was dissatisfied and stared at the eldest daughter-in-law of the Su family and asked coldly.
The aunt was so panicked that she tried her best to keep her mouth shut, but she could still hear her own voice.
"I heard that she would sell beautiful young women to prostitutes, so I asked my brothers from my mother's family to find her."
"She also promised me that if I sold Ah Wan, she would give me 100 taels of silver as a reward."
Hearing this, Zhang Hehua was so angry that she was speechless.
"Then how did you arrange for my three younger brothers and two younger sisters?" Su Wanti's voice was frighteningly calm.
The eldest aunt's eyes dodged. "My parents-in-law found a private mine that recruits people of all ages. They said that if we send three boys, we can get 90 taels of silver. As for your two sisters, my parents-in-law want to sell them to a village far away and give them to other families as child brides. They will get a dozen taels of silver."
The head of the village had a livid face. "You are so cruel. Su Song's child is their own grandson. Sending him to a private mine will only lead to him being exploited to death? You also want to sell a five-year-old child as a child bride? Only a cruel family who mistreats their daughters would sell their daughters as child brides, handing their daughters' lives over to other families, allowing them to be abused and tortured!"
Suddenly, his eyes flashed, as if he remembered something important.
He remembered that Su Song was brought back to Shanyan Village by his parents when he was five or six years old.
When Su Song first returned to the village, he was fair and clean, and did not look like a village child. Instead, he looked like the young master of a wealthy family.
He narrowed his eyes, remembering that a few days before Su Song disappeared, she had secretly come to his house in the middle of the night to look for him.
That night, Su Song handed him a small red cloth bag and asked him to keep it for safekeeping.
He also said that if anything happened to him, he should let me give the little red cloth bag to his eldest daughter, Awan.
A while ago, a distinguished person came to the county, and the head of the village went to the county to help. He was so busy that he forgot what Su Song had asked him to do.
At this time, the head of the village remembered Su Song's explanation and listened to the words of the eldest son's wife of the Su family, and made a decision in his heart.
He looked at everyone present, sighed, and said, "Ask Old Man Su and his two sons to come over."
Su Wanti's heart moved slightly, it seems that there is a chance of breaking off the engagement!
All the villagers heard what the eldest daughter-in-law of the Su family said.
When Old Man Su and his two sons came over, they found that the villagers were staring at them with strange eyes.
They also pointed at them and whispered.
The three of them had no idea what was going on and could only make random guesses.
Old Man Su whispered, "I'm afraid it's that damn girl Ah Wan who's causing trouble again."
"It's the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words. She can make a fuss as she pleases. We just need to lock her up and persuade the third son's wife to marry us." Old Master Su said.
Su Laoer frowned, "Dad, I think we should not be anxious. Let's wait a little longer. The third son's wife is dying. If she dies, Ah Wan will be without parents. She can only listen to you. You can accept the betrothal gift and have her kidnapped. This is the right thing to do."
Old Man Su glared, "I want to wait too, but can your son and nephew wait? Your son lost a lot of money in business, and your nephew owes gambling debts. They are both at the age of marriage, and we need to prepare betrothal gifts. After all the calculations, we need a total of 200 taels of silver. We have to sell all six children of the third brother's family to barely raise 200 taels of silver."
"Once you get the money, you have to fill the hole in your sons as soon as possible. Otherwise, the interest will compound and the hole will get bigger and bigger. Where can I find six more children to sell?"
Su Laoer thought about it, felt that what his father said made sense, and shut up.
Old Man Su added, "You'll insist that men should get married when they're old enough and women should get married when they're old enough. Since my father is not here, it's up to my grandfather and uncles to make the decision. The village head is a man who values hierarchy and order, and he won't stand on Ah Wan's side."
However, the reality was beyond Old Man Su's expectations.
As soon as he and his two sons entered the house, the head of the village said with a stern face that his eldest daughter-in-law and matchmaker Li had told them all their plans.
Old Man Su was stunned, and then he unconsciously exchanged glances with his two sons.
This tiny action did not escape the eyes of the village head. At this moment, in his mind, the credibility of the words of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Su family increased a little.
"Haha, I don't understand what the head of the village said. My daughter-in-law sometimes gets confused, so you can't trust everything she says..."
Old Man Su glanced at his eldest daughter-in-law with a warning in his eyes.
