Fate of the Stupid Son Chapter 45

Song Ming’s spine chilled and his forehead sweated as he laughed, “I, I, I ……”

“Isn’t that right?”

Gu Yi still smiled and asked another follow-up question, as if an adult at home patiently asked a child who had made a mistake if he or she knew it was wrong.

Cold air rose from Song Ming’s bones, and with his mouth open, he answered yes or no, no or no.

However, Gu Yi’s complexion was restrained and his face was full of seriousness, “You don’t deserve a beating, you deserve to die! Since your sister was able to come up with the silver and you still insisted on selling your daughter, you must have been given a lot of silver, not 50 taels but 30 taels?”

“Where?”

Song Ming subconsciously denied it, but his hand covered his chest.

The crowd looked away and all drew a breath of cold air.

Gu Yi ignored him and looked at Song Lian, “Tell me, how many taels did you give him?”

Song Lian covered the swollen half of her face, her eyes dodging as she stammered, not daring to speak.

“A little maid, even if she is sold to a rich family as a maid, it is only five or six taels of silver, yet you are willing to pay so much silver, I think you want to sell your own niece into that filthy place, right?”

“Sizzle!”

Not only the onlooking villagers, but also the village headman drew in a breath of cold air as anger surged up, his voice sinking, “Song Lian, is what Young Master Gu said true?”

“No, no.”

Song Lian waved her hands in panic, “Daya is my own niece, how could I sell her to such a place!”

“Then tell me, what kind of family is willing to spend so much silver on a little girl?”

“Yes, yes, yes ……”

Song Lian also poofed down on her knees, “Village head, I have no choice, my elder brother owed a lot of silver in the gambling house in the county some days ago, my family bailed him out, now the silver can’t be paid back, people are going to raid my family, I, I have no choice, I really didn’t sell Daya to that kind of place, you believe me, believe me ah.”

“Then where do you want to sell her to?”

The village headman went to the county from time to time and was more “knowledgeable” than the people in the village, he also knew that a big family did spend five or six taels of silver to buy a maid, Song Lian gave so much, obviously she was not sold to any good place.

Song Lian stammered and refused to say anything.

She was a married person and the village chief could not do anything about it, but it was different with Song Ming, “Give her back the silver!”

The silver was her life, and Song Ming was unwilling to do so, so she covered it up tightly and refused to take it out, no matter how much the village chief scolded her.

The village chief was so angry that he couldn’t do anything about it.

The village headman said, “Why are you wasting your time with him, just ask for the deed of sale?”

The deed of sale was on Song Lian’s person, and as soon as Gu Yi’s words came out, she hurriedly took it out and handed it to the village chief.

The village headman tore it up in three or two tries and smashed it on Song Ming, “Listen to me carefully, if you dare to have any more thoughts of betraying Daya, see if I don’t drive you out of the village!”

Song Ming didn’t say a word, his hand tightly covering his chest, he had sold Daya anyway, the silver was his, whoever took it from him, he would fight for his life.

Song Lian didn’t dare to make a fuss, it was just a deed of sale, if it was torn, then it was torn, when big brother found a chance to take Daya to the county, he would make up another one.

“People like him, dogs can’t change their ways!”

Gu Yi leaned back and tried to lean on the back of the chair, but he forgot that he was sitting on a wooden stool and there was no chair back.

Thanks to Xiao Si’s resourcefulness, he hurriedly gave him a hand to prevent him from falling on his back, but he was also startled and immediately patted his own small chest, “Scared me to death ……”

A sentence out, only to remember what occasion he was in, immediately sat upright again, cleared his throat, to hide his embarra*sment, “Just in time, my family is short of a maid, I see this maid hand and foot is still quite nimble, I accept, twenty years long contract.”

No sooner had his words left his lips than the crowd exploded.

They had heard that the Gu family treated their servants well, they were well fed and clothed, they had two sets of clothes to change every season, and they were paid their monthly salary on time.

“Thank you, Young Master Gu, thank you, Young Master Gu!”

Song Ming’s daughter-in-law pulled Daya to kowtow to Gu Yi, she knew exactly what her man and mother-in-law were like, if they couldn’t sell Daya this time, they would plan to do it a second or third time.

“No!”

“No!”

Two voices rang out at the same time, one from Song Ming and the other from Song Lian.

Song Ming had the same thoughts as Song Lian, thinking that he would find an opportunity to send Daya to the county in a few days.

Song Lian was also the same, she had agreed with the other side, the silver had also been received, three or five days later, she said that the adults of the family could not afford to give up. But if she can’t bring the person back, she won’t be in a good position to eat either.

“They don’t count, Daya is my daughter, so I’ll make the decision and send her to Young Master Gu’s house.”

Song Ming’s daughter-in-law was hardened for a rare time.

“You stinking b*tch ……”

Song Ming threw up his fist and was about to hit her.

“Stop it!”

The village chief scolded, “How dare you hit someone in front of me? Do you want me to send a message to the Grand Master and ask him to send two people to take you there?”

Last year, a man from the next village was taken there and sent back in a bloody mess, and he was dead within a few days.

Song Ming was so frightened that he withdrew his hand, but said with a strained neck, “I don’t agree!”

“I don’t agree either!”

Song Gua’s voice came out through the window.

Song Ming’s daughter-in-law had given birth to two maids in a row, and Song Gua’s was very unimpressed, saying that the ones she had given birth to were money losers. Now it was hard to find someone willing to pay more silver, so, no matter what she said, she could not agree to send Daya to the Gu family as a maid.

Through the window paper, she stared viciously at Song Ming’s daughter-in-law, “Damned thing, where is it your place to make decisions, get lost!”

Song Ming’s daughter-in-law did not back down this time, she knew she would be beaten up later, but even if she was beaten to death, it was better than watching her daughter being sold into that kind of place, “Village Chief, please write the contract and I will put my fingerprints on it.”

Fire came out of Song Ming’s eyes, he wanted to stare two holes in his daughter-in-law, this b*tch, she knew how to spoil his good deeds.

Song Lian was also anxious and couldn’t stop giving Song Ming a wink to stop it.

Song Ming dared not make a sound, but watched as the village headman ordered someone to go to his house and bring a pen, ink, paper and ink stone, laid the paper on the worn-out table he had brought out from the house, dipped it in ink and started writing.

“My family’s maids are paid on time every month, this little girl of yours is still young, she has to be brought back for training first, no pay for two years, are you willing?”

Gu Yi asked.

“I am willing, I am willing.”

“All right then, village head, you put this in writing.”

The deed was quickly written, and the village chief read it out, then had Song Ming’s daughter-in-law put her handprint on it as he picked it up and handed it to Gu Yi.

Song Ming sprang up and came up to snatch it.

A foot kicked out from an oblique angle, knocking him over to the ground.
