"Mom, I don't like wearing new clothes. Please save the money to pay for my brother's tuition!"

The younger sister refused while chewing noodles.

In ten days, it will be time to pay the fee to the Iron Arm Martial Arts School.

Although Luo Lian was young, she knew that her family was worried about the ten taels of silver, so she pretended not to like new clothes in order to save money for her family!

"My Lian'er is so sensible."

Hearing her daughter's words, the mother's heart ached, and then she said to Luo Li:"Li'er, when you have mastered martial arts, you must find a good family for your sister!"

"Mother, Lian'er!"

Listening to the conversation between his mother and sister, Luo Li's eyes could not help but turn red:"Don't worry, I will definitely practice the Iron Arm Kung Fu well and make a name for myself!"

"Okay, I believe you!"

The mother nodded expectantly.

"Brother, I believe in you too. You will definitely become a great master who can fly in the sky!"

Luo Lian said with longing:"When the time comes, you must take me to the sky to pick stars!"

"Okay, I will pick all the stars in the sky for you when the time comes!"

Listening to his sister's words, Luo Li's heart was suddenly filled with fighting spirit!

""Okay, hurry up and eat!"

At this time, his father Luo Yong said with a dark face.

Hearing this, Luo Li suppressed his emotions and covered his head to eat.

After dinner, Luo Li returned to his room.

Luo Li's room was very small. In addition to a brick bed, there was a wooden man.

Bang bang bang bang~~

In the room, Luo Li moved his body slightly, then came to the wooden man and punched and elbowed, practicing iron arm skills, and stopped only when his elbows were red, swollen and stinging!

"It's time to rest."

To practice Iron Arm Kung Fu, one must have the unique secret medicine distributed by the Iron Arm Kung Fu School to dissolve blood stasis and reduce swelling.

Without the secret medicine, it is easy to make a person injured or useless!

So Luo Li only practiced for an extra hour every day and then went to bed.

The next day, just after dawn, Luo Li was awakened by the sound of gongs and drums.

He got up and went to the yard.

He saw his father Luo Yong holding a dry pipe in his mouth, smoking it while solidifying a dozen peeled hardwoods to make handles for farm tools.

His mother He Caihua and sister Luo Lian were busy in the kitchen.

"Dad, is there any happy event in someone’s family?"

"I haven't heard anyone mention it!"

Luo Yong stretched his waist and felt a little strange.

Dongdongdong~~

At this moment, the gate of the courtyard was suddenly knocked.

Then, a fat woman in red and green clothes rushed in.

Behind the fat woman were two tall and thin men who were beating gongs and drums.

The last one was a middle-aged man with a fat figure and a hideous scar on his face. He was holding two pig legs in his hands, giving people an unconcealable ferocity!

""Sister Huang, what are you doing?"

Seeing the fat woman, Luo Yong stood up with some doubts.

"Master Luo, I heard that your girl has grown up. It just so happens that Mr. Zhang from the east end of the street is interested in remarrying, so I brought Mr. Zhang here this morning to propose to your girl!"

The fat woman's name was Huang Meizhi, and she specialized in matchmaking.

As for the 'Mr. Zhang' she was talking about, he was the fat and scarred middle-aged man, the tyrant of Xinghua Street in the outer city of Gaoye County, the butcher Zhang Scarface!

"Proposal?"

Luo Yong was stunned for a moment, then shook his head decisively:"My girl is still young, she won't get married for the time being!"

Although in this world, women get married early, Luo Lian is not even twelve years old, and is far from the age to get married!

"Hey Master Luo, your girl is quite big now."

"Besides, Master Zhang is not only handsome, but his family is also very wealthy. If your girl marries him, she will be enjoying a good life!"

Matchmaker Huang must have received some favors from Scarface Zhang, so she praised him nonsensically.

"By the way, if you agree to this marriage, Master Zhang will give you ten taels of silver as a betrothal gift!"

Ten taels of silver is not a small amount, enough for an ordinary family to live on for one or two years.

"No matter how much you offer as a gift, my sister won't marry you!"

Suddenly, Luo Li's decisive voice sounded.

You know, Zhang Scarface had been married for a long time, and there was no rumor that his wife had passed away or divorced. The so-called marriage was to let Luo Lian be his concubine.

In this world, the status of concubines is very low, not much different from slaves, and it is not uncommon for them to be bullied to death.

And Zhang Scarface's wife is very fierce, and it is said that she has forced two concubines to death.

Marrying Luo Lian to Zhang Scarface is no less than pushing him into a fire pit!

"We are talking, why are you butting in?"

Being interrupted by Luo Li, Huang the matchmaker's face suddenly fell:"Besides, if you marry your sister, you will have the tuition to continue practicing martial arts in the Iron Arm Martial Arts School. Don't ruin your future!"

Huang the matchmaker had inquired clearly and knew that the Luo family was short of money. She wanted to use money to force the Luo family to submit.

"You don't need to worry about my future. If you have nothing else to do, you can leave now!"

Luo Li refused loudly without any hesitation.

Even if he starved to death or died of poverty, he would never sell his sister!

""Master Luo, is this what you mean?"

At this moment, Matchmaker Huang's face was completely sullen and she glared at Luo Yong.

"Sister Huang, my daughter is still too young, I am really sorry!"

Luo Yong glanced at his daughter who was hiding in the kitchen and dared not come out, and decisively refused.

"Blacksmith Luo, don't be so shameless!"

"Besides, since Master Zhang has come today, he will definitely not return empty-handed!"

After being clearly rejected by Luo Yong, Matchmaker Huang actually threatened directly.

"What are you talking about? Are you going to force my girl to marry you?"

Luo Yong's dark and honest face couldn't help but fall down.

"Humph, so what if I force you to marry me?"

At this moment, Zhang Scarface threw the two pig legs in his hand to the ground, with a cruel look on his face:"Blacksmith Luo, if you know what's good for you and accept the gift, I will still recognize you as my father-in-law."

"If you don't appreciate my kindness, I will kill your Luo family and then play with your skinny girl!"

Threat!

Blatant threat!

As a bully in Xinghua Street, West District of Outer City, Zhang Scarface has harmed many people. There are several families that have been destroyed by him.

So when Zhang Scarface said this, not only his mother He Caihua and sister Luo Lian were frightened, but even Luo Yong was trembling.

""Zhang Scarface, don't go too far! I am a disciple of the Tiebi Martial Arts School!"

Luo Li was also shocked and immediately mentioned the Tiebi Martial Arts School.

After hearing this, the faces of Huang Matchmaker and the two tall and thin men changed slightly.

The Tiebi Martial Arts School is one of the three major martial arts schools in the inner city, and the owner Zhang Tiebi is a guest of the county magistrate, a big shot who cannot be offended!

"Disciples of the Iron Arm Martial Arts School? Pah!"

However, Zhang Scarface spat on the ground.

It turned out that Zhang Scarface had already found out that the disciples of the Iron Arm Martial Arts School were just a group of apprentices who paid to practice martial arts. The Iron Arm Martial Arts School didn't care about the life and death of such disciples!

What's more, Zhang Scarface also had the background of the Golden Wolf Gang.

"Luo the blacksmith, I will give you ten seconds to think about it, don't try to get yourself killed!"

At this time, Zhang Scarface stared at Luo Yong fiercely and issued an ultimatum.

"Scarface Zhang, even if our Luo family dies of poverty and starvation, we will never sell our own daughters!"

Luo Yong took a deep breath, suppressed the fear in his heart and said:"If you continue to force me, I will go to the inner city county government to report to the police!"

""You are such an idiot!"

Seeing that Luo Yong refused to give in, Zhang Scarface strode directly to the kitchen."

Aren't you, Luo Yong, unwilling to marry your daughter?

Then I will take the bride away and make it a done deal. Then we'll see if anyone wants your precious daughter anymore!"
