Maybe I shouldn't die.
Chapter 98 Feng Datian and his wife come to visit
The village chief also breathed a sigh of relief. It would be best if they could sever the relationship, otherwise it would not be easy for the two sisters to live a better life.
He has collected so many things, and he would feel guilty if he just left them alone. Besides, who knows if that girl Sisi will come back.
He's the future miracle doctor! We can't afford to offend him.
So he nodded.
"Indeed, we have to ask their opinions."
However, considering the character of Feng Datian and his wife, if we go to them and propose conditions like this, they will definitely go even further.
Feng Ermei obviously thought of this, so she said to the village chief:
"Why don't you leave this to me? I will have them come to find you as soon as possible. With the silver hanging on their heads, I guess they are very anxious now."
Naturally, the village chief would have no objection to Feng Ermei's initiative to help. She was much more familiar with the moral character of Feng Datian and his wife than he was, and could better grasp their lifeblood.
Sure enough, not long after dinner, Feng Datian and his wife brought the three Feng sisters to the village chief's house.
No one knew what Feng Ermei had said to them, but they stated straight away that they would allow the village chief to talk to the three Feng sisters alone, and that they would also have to give them the 100 taels of silver that Feng Sisi had sent them afterwards.
The village chief observed the expressions of the couple and found that there was really no reluctance at all, so he became even more curious about how Feng Ermei persuaded them.
Perhaps he could ask them later, so he took them to a guest room and talked to the three Feng sisters alone.
After they entered the guest room, in order to prevent eavesdropping, Fang Yue moved her fingers slightly and set up a soundproof barrier.
The village chief in the guest room looked at the three sisters and was considering where to start when he heard Feng Ermei say:
"I have already told my two sisters the whole story. They don't mind living with me after breaking off the relationship with my parents. But it will cost a lot of money to get my parents to agree to break off the relationship."
The village chief didn't care about this. Money was not a problem. He carefully observed the two people's reactions after hearing the breaking off of the engagement. They didn't seem to be reluctant at all, and even had joy in their eyes.
It seems that after Feng Ermei's persuasion, the two girls are now sincerely willing to break off the engagement.
"That's not a problem. I was prepared to give your parents 100 taels of silver. They will agree. After all, even if I raise you two and marry you off, I may not be able to receive so much silver as a betrothal gift."
Of course, with the character of these two couples, they might even think about getting the money first, and then after a while, they can go to the second daughter's home and bring the two girls back.
After all, they didn't believe that Feng Ermei's in-laws would be willing to raise two little girls who only eat and do nothing for nothing. As for whether the relationship was really severed, who would believe what the two little girls said?
The village chief did not continue speaking. Feng Ermei also understood, so the severance letter was a must, otherwise she would not be able to protect her two younger sisters in the future.
After the preliminary agreement, the village chief took out three boxes and handed them to the three sisters, instructing them:
"These are all things your sister prepared for you. Only you can open the box. I don't know what's inside. Please keep it well."
After the three sisters took the box, the third and fourth sisters took the initiative to pass the things to Feng Ermei:
"Sister, please help us collect it."
Feng Ermei naturally would not refuse. She also knew that in that family, the third and fourth sisters would not be able to keep any good things in their hands.
When Feng Ermei put away all three boxes, the village chief suddenly asked her curiously:
"How did you convince your parents to bring your sisters to see me?"
Feng Ermei was stunned, then explained with a smile:
"I said Doctor Fang will be leaving tomorrow. If he doesn't come tonight, the money will be gone. That's 100 taels of silver. They won't be willing to part with it."
The village chief just said "oh" and didn't say anything else. He knew that things would definitely not be that simple, but since Feng Ermei didn't want to say it, he couldn't force her.
When they opened the door, they saw Feng Datian and his wife squatting by the door trying to eavesdrop, while the village chief's wife was looking at them from a distance with an indescribable expression on her face.
When they came out, the two men were not embarrassed. They immediately looked at the village chief with smiles on their faces and stretched out their hands impatiently.
"Now that we have finished talking, can you give us the silver?"
The village chief rolled his eyes. These two people were really ungentlemanly. He took out 100 taels of silver from his pocket and threw it to them.
Feng Datian and his wife took the silver, touched it again and again with shining eyes, and even put it in their mouths and took a bite. Only after confirming that it was real white silver did they reluctantly put the silver into their arms.
Seeing the two of them acting like this, Feng Ermei simply felt ashamed. How could she have such a pair of parents? But the next plan still required their cooperation, so she coughed lightly, reminding them not to forget what they were going to do next.
The two were awakened by the second sister's cough. Yes, this is only 100 taels of silver. Didn't the second sister say before that the eldest sister wanted to raise the third and fourth sisters in her home?
Although they were not very willing to lose two people working at home, what the second sister said was right. Maybe they could use this as an excuse to get some money from the village chief.
As for the two dead girls, we can wait for a while and then go and pick them up. We still have to get the money first.
Then Feng Datian and his wife looked at each other knowingly, and then Feng Datian's wife said to the village chief with a flattering look on her face:
"I heard that the eldest sister wants to send the third and fourth sisters to the second sister's home to be raised. It's not impossible, but..."
She didn't say the rest, but just looked at the village chief with a meaningful look, her eyes full of greed. She believed that the village chief understood what she meant.
The village chief naturally understood what she meant, so he spoke directly:
"30 taels of silver per person to buy out your relationship with them both."
Feng Datian and his wife would naturally not be satisfied with only thirty taels of silver. After all, as long as they married off their third sister, they would receive a betrothal gift of thirty-five taels of silver.
As for the idea of bringing them back later, that was a matter for the future. Aren’t we talking about the money for breaking off the engagement now? So Feng Datian’s wife refused outright.
"No, 30 taels is too low. At least one person needs 35 taels." After her previous experience, she didn't dare to offer an outrageous price this time, for fear that the village chief would turn against her as he did before.
