Make a lot of money!I got rich in the year of famine

Chapter 9 Betting

These were obviously threatening words, which made Shen Changfu a little dissatisfied, "Girl Qing, your second aunt has gone too far, but what you said is not right."

Shen Qing swallowed the bitterness and said, "Both of us have no way to survive. If there is nothing you dare to do, don't push people too much. The worst is death. But even if I die, I will have someone to support me. You have to think about it!"

Shen Changgui pointed at her and cursed: "Even if you die, you have to marry me before you die!"

Shen Youxin shouted: "Shut up! Matchmaker Wang, you go back first!"

He started chasing people away.

"Yang family, you go too!"

Then came Yang's mother, who had almost finished watching the play.

But Yang's mother didn't want to leave yet, "The marriage between our two families has not been canceled yet! The betrothal gift that I brought before..."

Only then did Granny Shen remember that there was also a betrothal gift and said, "It's all ready. Leave it in the east room. I'll go get it."

Shen Youxin glanced at the two sisters huddled in the corner, hugging each other, and couldn't bear it, "Ordinarily, parents should make the final decision on children's marriage, but they must also take into account the children's thoughts. We can't really tie up our hands and feet and block them. Put your mouth into the sedan chair, Shen Changgui, don't you think about it, marrying such a daughter-in-law, if something happens, they won't trouble you?"

Shen Changfu also advised, "Yes! Let's discuss it carefully. The happy event should be done with joy, but don't make any more trouble."

Shen Changgui didn't want to cause trouble, he also wanted his two daughters to marry willingly.

So, after a commotion, the Shen family could finally sit down and talk.

Shen Qing rushed to speak: "Dad, let's make a contract. After one year, if I give you 200 taels of silver, you can no longer interfere with my marriage to my sister. If you don't have 200 taels of silver after one year, it won't matter whether you marry or sell. it's up to you!"

Shen Youxin took a breath, "200 taels, so much?"

Mother Yang explained to him with a smile, talking about the marriage between the Sun family and the Wen family.

Shen Youxin's face turned dark, and he secretly scolded Shen Changgui for being outrageous, selling his daughter has to touch his conscience, after all, it's his own kind, so how could he be so cruel as to ruin it.

After receiving a strange glare from the village chief, Shen Changgui looked a little confused, "Do you think silver grows on the ground and you can pick it up by bending down?"

Shen Qing straightened his back, "Just tell me whether you want to gamble or not!"

Zhou Laidi rubbed her shoulders and said bitterly: "Brother, don't listen to her nonsense. This girl just wants to delay time. What if she runs away!"

Shen Qing was about to scold her, but Lin Youxin took the first step.

He shouted: "Zhou Laidi! Don't stir up trouble here, just mind your own business!"

Zhou Laidi lowered her head and did not dare to say anything.

Shen Youxin looked at Shen Qing again, ever since she knelt in front of Shen's house that day, he found that this girl seemed to have grown up overnight.

Also, without my mother, and being plotted against me by my biological father and grandma, how can I not grow up?

"Girl Qing, I'm asking you here seriously, do you really want to make this bet with your father? What if you lose?"

Shen Qing sneered: "Then accept fate."

He asked Shen Hui again, "Hui girl, what do you think?"

Shen Hui said solemnly: "I listen to Wan'er, just like what she said, if we don't earn 200 taels, we accept our fate and don't make trouble anymore."

Shen Youxin looked at Shen Changgui again, "Changgui, these two girls are better than you, and they know how to fight for themselves, you should feel honored, I'm in charge, this matter is settled like this, I'll make the contract Write, both of you are responsible for fingerprinting, do you have any comments?"

Although Shen Changgui was not convinced, it seemed that he could only do so now, "If the two of them can really earn 200 taels, I have nothing to say."

200 taels, even if you farm for ten years you won't be able to earn it.

Besides, do they have land?

oh!Hearing that there were ten acres of wasteland, Shen Changfu came back and told him.

wasteland!hehe!
It takes a year to open up wasteland and raise land. Even if the reclamation is done, grain is planted, and the harvest is bumper, tax and rations are removed, and one year's grain seeds are reserved, and the rest can be sold for a few taels of silver. Not bad.

In fact, Shen Youxin didn't believe it either. The two little girls couldn't lift their shoulders or hands, so what did they do to make money.

But this matter needs some time to calm down, otherwise if it continues like this, there will be two more corpses in Xinghua Village, and if it is spread, he will not be the village chief.

Shen Youxin went to private school for two years, and the contract was quickly completed, "Come, you guys come over and put your fingerprints on it, and I will be the notary public."

After pressing his fingerprint, he put the receipt away.

"I'll take out the paperwork one year later, so you can do whatever you want, and I'm leaving."

When Granny Shen heard that a written document had been established and it was still a year later, she looked extremely ugly and refused to keep her two granddaughters to eat, urging them to leave quickly so as not to disturb her eyes.

Shen Changfu was dragged away by Mrs. Zhou.

On the way back, Mrs. Zhou was still muttering, "Girls who don't know the world, really think it's so easy to make money. There will be times when they cry."

Shen Changfu said dissatisfied: "As an elder, why don't you expect them to order well?"

"Hmph! I didn't give birth to them. How can I still take advantage of them when they are well? You want a good thing! Only children raised by themselves can treat their own parents. Besides, if they don't get married quickly, how can they get married soon? I have money to renew my eldest brother's string, hey! I have a niece named Cuifang in my natal family, do you still remember her?"

"What's wrong with her?"

"She is nineteen this year, and she is still a young girl. She is just a little short. How do you think she matches up with our eldest brother?"

"Isn't that a seniority difference? No, no!"

"What's wrong with the difference in seniority, maybe the two of them are destined!"

After Zhou's persuasion, Shen Changfu actually agreed.

From this point of view, Shen Changfu is a person who has no independent opinions and is easily swayed.

After Yang's mother returned home, she also told her family about the bet between the Shen family sisters and their own father.

Yang Xiuyuan sat on the small bench with his head lowered, listening to every word.

Seeing his appearance, Mother Yang sighed, "Son! I'll ask the matchmaker to find you a wife in a few days. If you like her, we'll get it done by the end of the year, so you don't have to worry about long nights and dreams."

"I don't want to get married right now, let's wait and see in two years." An old hen came to him looking for food, but he kicked it away.

Yang's mother hit him and scolded him: "Look at your worthless appearance. Isn't that girl Shen Hui just prettier? Look at you. It doesn't matter how handsome you are. She has a bad reputation. Our family will still be in trouble in the future." If you want to be a human being, you don’t know that spittle can drown people!”

"Let's live our lives behind closed doors, no matter what others say! Anyway, I don't want to get married, I'm going to work in the town!"

"Hey! Why don't you listen, kid!"

It is getting late, and the chill of early spring is rising.

The Shen sisters were on their way back to Crescent Bay. They were worried when they went there, and they were not in a much better mood when they came back.

Shen Qing knew what her sister was worried about, but she could only think of this way at the time.

Thinking about it, 200 taels a year is not a little difficult, but very difficult.

Shen Hui walked and found that her sister had not followed her, so she turned back to look for her, "Qing'er, can't you walk anymore?"

Shen Qing looked up at her, then quickly lowered his head, "No, I'm thinking about something."
