The First Assistant Teased Me and Gave Birth To a Cub

  Chapter 88 Sell or not?

   Zhao Lizheng was a little embarrassed and looked at Liu Dagen, "This, if you want to sell yourself, you have to get your father's consent. What does your father mean?"

   Before Liu Dagen spoke, his mother-in-law said loudly: "It's okay to sell it, you can only eat and work every day, I can't wait!"

   She pointed at A Tie and said to Gu Yunjiao, "Bring five taels of silver and I will sell this child to you."

  Zhao Lizheng immediately scolded: "You woman, you are so ignorant, even parents, brothers and sisters, you can't buy and sell people at will. You know that forcing the good to be the lowly means you will be sent to prison!"

  A Tie was originally a good member, but if he really wanted to sell himself as a slave, he would become a low-ranking member, and his descendants would not be able to take the imperial examinations.

   After scolding Zhao Lizheng, he turned his head and saw that Gu Yunjiao was silent, and thought to himself, could it be that Dr. Gu really wants to buy Ah Tie as his servant?

   Seeing the pity in Gu Yunjiao's eyes, Zhao Lizheng felt that he understood.

   Doctor Gu has a good heart, thinking that he felt that Ah Tie had no way to survive in the hands of his stepmother, so he wanted to give him a way to survive.

   He then changed his words, "However, if he sells himself, he will be no different."

   He looked at Liu Dagen, "Dagen, what do you mean?"

  Liu Dagen was speechless.

  The Dagen family said again: "How can there be such a thing!"

   "A Tie is 12 years old this year. Raising such a large family costs a lot of money. Even if he sells himself, he must first repay the kindness of his parents!"

   When everyone thinks about it, this is not bad.

   Seeing that everyone in the Dagen family seemed to agree, they said more and more straightforwardly: "I don't want much, just five taels, five taels of silver, Xiao Doctor Gu, you will take this child away!"

  Gu Yunjiao was about to answer when there were boos from all around.

   Someone said: "You want money and die, and marrying a daughter-in-law is only two or three taels of silver. How can this half-year-old boy be worth so much!"

   "That's right, you haven't paid for the consultation yet? If you're cured, you'll have to pay some money!"

   "This disease is so intractable, no matter how many doctors I have seen!"

   "Yeah, buy this half-size kid back, eat a lot, and it's useless, who wants to buy it!"

   "Five taels of silver is too expensive, it doesn't make sense!"

  The woman saw that everyone was accusing her, and said embarrassingly: "Then, let's make it three taels of silver!"

  Gu Yunjiao stepped forward at this time, "Sure, I'll give you three taels of silver, and Ah Tie will follow me later."

   The woman was delighted, she never thought that this leprosy-headed stepson could be exchanged for silver.

   She used to curse A Tie to die early every day at home. When A Tie died, she could save food, and a few acres of land in the family would be her son’s in the future.

   Of course, it’s better to sell!

   Ah Tie on the ground was about to cry, he wanted to repay Doctor Gu, how could he still pay for her?

   He shook his head again and again, "No, I don't want money."

  Gu Yunjiao stepped forward and pulled him up, "Although your stepmother is not a good person, there is a saying that makes sense."

   "Anyway, your father raised you so much, you still have to give the money you deserve."

   She looked at Liu Dagen, "However, I said it before. After I gave the money and set up a document, this child has nothing to do with your Liu family."

   "Don't run over every three days and ask him to go back to work, or ask him for money!"

   Liu Dagen was still hesitant, and it was obvious that he didn't want to sell children at all.

   His mother-in-law stabbed him fiercely with her elbow, "What else are you thinking about?"

   "Isn't this child abandoned a long time ago, it's not a loss to exchange three taels of silver now."
