Chapter 259 Can it really be sold for 12?
While they were hesitating, Jinsheng came over and handed the household registration documents and travel passes of the two families to Wu Da and Wu Er.
"Two heads of the Wu family, this is what Village Chief Yun asked you two to give it to. The head of the Yun family said that the Yun family's affairs will not affect other families. Since you are not surnamed Yun, I believe no one will cause trouble for you. Tomorrow you will go south with the other villages! As for Brother Wu's legs that can't walk, our lady said that as long as you pay eighty taels of silver, we can sell the carriage to your family."
"Eighty taels, why don't you just go and rob it? You want the money you just gave me back." Mrs. Wu's sharp voice rang out, and everyone around looked over.
"Don't even think about taking back a penny of the money you gave us. My son's legs are almost healed and he can walk. You can take the horse away and leave the cart behind. His wife is strong enough to push him."
"Aunt Wu, you are wrong. My young lady is kind-hearted. I guess since Brother Wu has a leg injury, this carriage would be worth at least one hundred taels if sold to the county town," Jinsheng said coldly.
When Wu Erpo's wife heard that she could sell it for 100 taels for 80 taels, she was a little tempted. If she bought it and sold it again, she could make 20 taels. She was a little tempted and asked cautiously: "Can it really be sold for 100 taels?"
"Second brother's wife, why don't you give the silver quickly? When you sell it in the county town, you can make twenty taels, enough to buy a cow. At worst, you can buy a donkey!" said Mrs. Wu enviously.
Wu Erzhu was extremely disappointed when he heard that his mother was not worried about his inability to walk, but was plotting against the carriage that the Yun family had kindly sold to him.
So he said, "Dad, Mom, let's split up. I don't want to go to the south anymore. I want to go with Yunjia Village. You and dad can take Sizhu away. We, the three of us, will stay here. Whether I live or die in the future, you can just pretend that you never gave birth to me. I don't want the resettlement fee given by Master Cheng. Just think of it as a filial gift to you and me."
Wu Er looked at the old woman and then at his two sons. He sighed. His youngest son was spoiled by the old woman. He didn't understand books and couldn't do anything. If the second son left them, they would have no hope when they got old.
He also saw that, not to mention that they didn't want to go with Yunjia Village, even if they wanted to go, Yunjia would not take them with them. So without saying a word, he took out the money bag from his arms, took out 80 taels of silver from the 100 taels given by Cheng Yuheng and gave it to Jinsheng: "This is the carriage money, thank Miss Yun on behalf of my family."
Wu Erpo looked at Wu Er with distress as he gave the silver, and then stared at the remaining twenty taels in his hand. Wu Er didn't look at her, and handed the remaining silver to Wu Erzhu's wife, "Erzhu's wife, Dad knows you are a good person. You will be the head of our family in the future. When we get to the south, marry a wife for Sizhu. Let you brothers separate the family, and Dad will live with you. As for your mother, it depends on her wishes."
"You old man, you are disgusted with me and want to separate from me!" After saying that, she sat on the ground and slapped her thighs, "My life is so miserable! I, the mother-in-law, am not dead yet, but you let your daughter-in-law take charge of the family! This is not letting me live..."
"Shut up! If you keep making trouble, I'll divorce you." Wu Er shouted loudly.
The crying of Mrs. Wu Er suddenly stopped. Seeing this, Wu Sizhu hurriedly helped his mother up and said, "Mom, just listen to Dad and stop making trouble."
"You ungrateful bastard, I did it for you." After saying that, she left angrily. As she walked, she was still thinking whether she should go into the city to change the horse carriage to an ox or donkey cart.
After the village chief came back, he called a meeting with his villagers. The Maoshan Village and Tongshu Village that joined later were not very familiar with Yunjia Village, so they had no objection to their villages leaving alone. However, a few little kids who played well with Yun Chenxing were reluctant to leave and cried, saying they didn't want to be separated from Big Boss Xing and Big Boss Xi.
In Kaoshan Village, apart from the village chief's family, Niu Er's family and the Yun family, the others are not very familiar with each other, so there are not too many disagreements.
When they heard that their village was going to separate from Yunjia Village, Mi Lizi and Niu Shitou were so sad that they cried in front of their parents.
Aunt Niu couldn't bear to see her only grandson crying so sadly. She gave birth to two sons in total. The eldest son died before reaching adulthood, leaving only Niu Er as the only son. Niu Shitou was his only grandson.
So she called the old man, his son, and his daughter-in-law together and said, "Old man, we only have one son left, and Shitou is our only lifeblood. We can't let the child be so sad.
In my opinion, although the Yun family is in danger now, the girl in this family is capable. Since the Yun family village dares to follow them, it proves that the girl and Master Cheng are capable of protecting everyone. I can't bear to see my grandson sad, and I also want to fight for our child.
It's done. Our kid has a bright future ahead of him. Even if we fail, we'll just be worthless. Besides, we have so many people from the Yun family with us, so it won't be unfair to us.
Second son, daughter-in-law, mother wants to fight for our stone, what do you think? "
Niu Er looked at the crying Niu Shitou, then looked at his elderly parents, and said, "Mom, since you said so, let's go out for the sake of the baby. I know the brothers of the Yun family, they are all loyal people. If we follow the Yun family and join Yunjia Village, they will not exclude us."
"I listen to my mother and husband." said Niu Shitou's mother.
"Okay, since you and your mother have made the decision, I have no objection." Uncle Niu also said.
"Okay, Dad and Mom, don't tell Shitou for now. I'll go talk to Doctor Yun and Village Chief Yun first to see if Yunjia Village can take us in." After saying this, Niu Er walked towards the post station.
Mi Lizi's tears fell like beads from a broken string, and she cried so heartbrokenly.
As the head of the village, Village Chief Liu had a sharp eye and could see at a glance that if the Yun family could successfully overcome this difficulty, they would surely prosper in the future.
If he had not relied on the village chief, he would have stayed without hesitation, followed behind Yunjia Village, and planned a bright future for future generations.
However, the old woman in his hometown was far less open-minded and insightful than Aunt Niu.
She just hopes that her children and grandchildren can live in peace and security, and she doesn't want her family to take any risks.
So she was against letting her children and grandchildren take risks and discouraged Village Chief Liu from joining Yunjia Village.
Later, when he realized that he had missed such a good opportunity due to his momentary lapse of judgment, it was too late to regret.
