The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

Chapter 17 - 17: 17 Sell Ugly Wife 3



“Yeah,” someone echoed, “Three taels of silver, aren’t you making the Xiao Family take a loss? It should be at least eight to ten taels. You can’t make it too much of a loss for them.”

Old lady Liu gathered her silver hairpin, “That was before his wife turned into a thief. Maybe she was worth that much back then. She steals from her own home, if she’s stealing her own money, who would dare buy her? Who would dare to buy a thief? She recently stole some steamed buns in town and nearly got beaten to death, everyone in the nearby towns knows about it. There’s no chance she can be sold in the nearby villages. If we want to sell her in a distant village, it would cost a lot in travel expenses, food and drink. Moreover, her appearance is so ugly it would make people want to vomit. No man would want her as a wife, at most she could serve as a lowly maidservant, serving others, she’s not worth much! If I take her in and can’t resell her, I might lose money myself. ”

Su Qingyue could see these people talking boisterously and though she couldn’t hear them, it gave her an uncomfortable feeling. Especially the old woman who had stuck a silver hairpin in her hair, she scanned her with a gaze as if assessing a piece of livestock.

This gave her the false impression that she was about to be sold off. She turned her head to her benefactor’s younger brother. Since the benefactor wasn’t home, aside from his younger brother, there was an ill person living in the secondary bedroom. Currently, the benefactor’s younger brother was the one in charge of this house.

As someone unrelated by blood or law, he wouldn’t sell her, right?

Like he had ingested an explosive, Xiao Yuchuan pushed everyone out, forcefully shoving and kicking, fierceness written all over his face, “All of you get lost, I’m not selling!. For some reason, hearing everyone talk about her in this manner made him angry to the point of wanting to kill, “If you don’t get out of my house, don’t blame me for getting violent!”

Everyone was initially laughing and enjoying the spectacle with relish, but they were taken aback by his fierce demeanor.

“Chuan, what are you getting so worked up about?” Zhao Shugen was displeased, and Xiao Yuchuan promptly kicked him.

Zhao Shugen wasn’t someone easy to mess with either, immediately kicking back, Yuchuan had anger that had nowhere to go, he clenched his fist and aimed it at Zhao’s face, the two of them instantly got into a messy fight..

Zhao Shugen was relying on brute strength, initially, he thought he could easily knock Xiao Yuchuan down, who knew this kid had considerable strength, his fists felt no pain as they landed on him, instead, he was beating Zhao Shugen up with a frenzy.

Zhao Shugen was at a disadvantage, realizing he couldn’t beat Xiao Yuchuan, he hastily bellowed, “Chuan has gone crazy, why aren’t any of you helping me!” When it comes to a fight between villagers, taking sides will earn no favor.

The villagers exchanged looks, all staying still.

Li Wangcai, who was good friends with Zhao Shugen, wanted to help, but was held back by his own wife.

Wangcai’s wife glared at him, “It’s their fight, what’s it got to do with you?”

“Shugen and I are good friends… it doesn’t feel right not to help…” Wangcai was always afraid of his wife.

“If he’s good friends with you, does that mean you don’t care about me? If you get injured, and something happens to you, what am I supposed to do?” Wangcai’s wife wrapped her arms around his, not letting him help. Wangcai was helpless.

No one helped the two who were fighting fiercely.

Zhao Shugen’s older brother Zhao Shuhai saw his younger brother in a fight, he rushed over immediately, helping his brother by aiming a harsh kick at Xiao

Yuchuan.

Xiao Yuchuan’s calf was kicked so hard it almost broke, he suppressed a groan. He was fighting with Zhao Shugen, he couldn’t defend himself from Zhao Shuhai.

Su Qingyue originally didn’t want to get involved, a fight between two people was fair. With another person involved, Xiao Yuchuan might be at a disadvantage, he seemed like he was standing up for her, so it wouldn’t be right if she didn’t help.

Especially since the man who had shown up late had ambushed him from behind with a kick..
