The eldest daughter of a peasant family: They are all my sisters’ passers-by

"Kick this dangerous idea out of your way, or I'll make sure neither of us survives."

Lai Qian'er tactfully stopped talking and quickly stuffed the popcorn into his mouth.

The weather was nice today. After lunch, Lan Wangshu sat in a recliner, covered with a thin blanket, feeling drowsy.

"Bang bang bang."

The sound of loud banging on the door made her collect her thoughts. She patted her chest gently, took two deep breaths, and looked towards the door with a cold gaze.

Her house is located in a remote area, and usually few people come here except for the people from the village chief's family. This kind of knocking on the door means either there is an emergency or someone from Lao Lan's family is here to cause trouble.

Lan Wangshu tidied her clothes and looked through the crack in the door. It was Lan Qinghe. She thought for a moment and did not open the door.

"Uncle, what's the matter?"

"You stupid girl, open the door for me. What are you doing letting your uncle stay outside?"

Lan Qinghe was a little dissatisfied. Usually he would go straight into the yard, but this time he was stopped by the gate and the wall. Looking at the new house which was more magnificent than his own home, greed filled his eyes and he put on a friendly smile again.

"Wangshu, Second Uncle is here to see you, how can we let our family members stand outside?"

Any normal person could see that he was just a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken, let alone someone who set a trap for him personally. Lan Wangshu sneered behind the door, her tone still full of grievance. She really wanted to know what bad idea Lan Qinghe had.

"But, Second Uncle, we have already separated. My grandmother sold me yesterday, and I asked the county magistrate to make the decision for me. From now on, we are two families."

Her voice was not loud and every word she spoke was clear, which made Lan Qinghe's mind clear for a moment.

After he left Sihai Casino yesterday, he went straight to the county government office, hoping to have Lan Zhaozhao take over as his concubine instead of the original woman. Unexpectedly, the person in the hall turned out to be his old mother. He asked around with the people around him before he found out what had happened.

Lan Xu was usually a troubled person in the village, but when she saw the official, she was as quiet as a mouse. She didn't say a word and let Hu Sanniang put all the responsibility on her. Her hunched body was shaking all the time.

The attitude of the You family was very clear. They wanted the Lan family's daughter, or they would return the money and apologize to the entire county for three days. Their You family had lost face today, and no one else would have an easy time of it.

Lan Qinghe touched his chin and made a prompt decision. Wasn't this a godsend opportunity? He could let Lan Zhaozhao in without any discussion. He took the initiative to explain that he was Lan Xu's son and asked for consultation.

When Old Mrs. Lan saw her son, she burst into tears and Lan Qinghe comforted her softly.

"Mom, don't cry, your son will take care of it. We can just return the money."

Old Mrs. Lan was reluctant to part with it, as it was twenty taels of silver. She also knew that Lan Wangshu’s household registration was no longer valid, but she still couldn’t resist the temptation and wanted to give it a gamble. Even now, she still didn’t want to let go.

Lan Qinghe's expression changed. If the money got to his mother, there would be nothing left. Lan Xu was usually very strict with money. He had searched the house several times but couldn't find a single copper coin. He didn't know where the money was hidden.

"Mother, twenty taels of silver is not as important as your life. The You family is a wealthy family. If they just hire a few hooligans, they will not be able to make ends meet. Don't be foolish."

Lan Xu knew that her second son was greedy for money. Now that she saw that he cared about her so much, she felt very happy and had no doubt about his motives. The old woman rubbed her coat with trembling hands, tore open the lining, and took out a twenty-liang silver note from it.

Lan Qinghe's eyes widened. He really didn't expect that money could be hidden in this way. The expression in the man's eyes was unclear. After settling the old lady, he went to discuss with the You family.

"Tell me what you want to talk about."

The servants in the You Mansion were wearing clothes that looked very expensive. Lan Qinghe squinted his eyes with envy. This wealthy family was different. The servants were dressed so well. He wondered what kind of rich life Lan Zhaozhao was leading after she got married. This was also a plan for his daughter as a father.

Lan Qinghe's face was humble and flattering, and he bent his waist slightly.

"Is it okay as long as she is the daughter of the Lan family?"

"Of course, our young master said that it must be Lan Luochen's sister."

"Okay, that's settled. I'll send the person over tonight."

The servant of the You family was very surprised and looked at him fixedly. Lan Wangshu was unwilling to be a concubine even for twenty taels of silver, but how could he, as her uncle, decide on her?

"What can you do? Don't bring this to court again. Otherwise, our You family can't afford to lose face. Don't let your plan fail and you get yourself into trouble."

The servant's eyes were full of contempt, but Lan Qinghe didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He took a step forward and nodded.

"Yes, yes, this person must be sent over at night to be a concubine. Of course, there are ways to go there at night. Once she enters the house, she will accept her fate."
