Chapter 75 Selling the Jade Pendant to End the Relationship

When Liu heard that Qin was going to sue her, she was still a little scared, but she still said, "You little bitch, you were bought by my son, you are my family's slave, your jade token belongs to our family, how dare you ask me for the jade token?"

"I bought Qing He Niang back then, but I didn't put her into slavery, so the things should still be hers." Chu Lao Er explained.

"Humph, I don't care if I'm a slave or not. As long as the things are in my hands, they are mine. My Chu family has the final say on how to deal with them."

Liu said unreasonably.

"Now the second son's family is unwilling to move back to the Chu family. Since you took out the jade token, you must have your intention. And you are unwilling to return the jade token to the second son's wife, so tell me what you think?" The head of the village looked at Liu, knowing that she must have some intention this time.

The old Chu family saw that the head of the village had asked the question that touched their heart. Since they had already broken off relations, the old Chu family would no longer hide anything.

After looking at each other, Liu said, “Originally you agreed that nothing would happen to our family, and we would live together in a big house, open a factory, make a lot of money, and enjoy endless blessings.

"Who told you to be unfilial and heartless? Don't blame us for being rude. You have to buy this jade pendant back and compensate us for our losses. Give it to us~~" As she said that, Liu turned her head and looked at Old Chu, asking how much silver he wanted to sell it for?

Old Chu coughed and said, "We won't ask for too much. We'll sell one jade token for two thousand taels of silver. Just prepare the banknotes and come and pick up the jade token."

Old Chu's words were like a thunderclap, shocking the villagers present. Two thousand taels of silver was not an exorbitant price, then what was it? Those who had been moved by their excuse for lying earlier now came to their senses and started to scold Old Chu's family for being inhuman.

When Qin heard Old Chu asking for two thousand taels of silver, she was so angry that she trembled all over:

“You guys are dreaming, I have come here even though I have been without my family for so many years.

Even with that jade token, I may not be able to find my family.

Besides, my family doesn't have that much money. If you want to get rich with this jade pendant, forget about it.

If you want to sell this jade token, you can pay ten taels of silver. If you don’t want to, you can take it and deal with it yourself. I won’t say anything.”

When the old Chu family heard that Qin offered a price of ten taels of silver, they were so angry that they pointed at Qin and kept saying "you you you" for a long time, but they couldn't say anything.

Liu was so angry that she stepped forward and was about to pull Qin's hair, "I'm going to beat you to death, you bitch, you only gave me ten taels of silver, I'm going to skin you alive and see if it's worth ten taels of silver."

Qin was well prepared for Liu's crazy behavior. When she pounced on her to grab her, Qin dodged to the side.

Liu missed and fell to the ground, lying face down. She stood up and tried to rush over again, but the head of the village stopped her:

"That's enough. You guys hold Liu back and don't let her make trouble again." The head of the village pointed at a few women and asked them to hold Liu back.

After Liu calmed down, the head of the village looked at Old Chu and said, "The second and fourth sons have both expressed their disapproval of the family. The jade token can be bought for ten taels of silver. Old Chu, do you think you should sell it or not?"

Old Chu finally caught his breath and said to the head of the village:

"Impossible, Li Zheng, this jade token is made of very good material and it is something that Qin carried with her, so it must be related to her life experience. I sold it to Qin so that she could find her family and make a good relationship with her.

We can sell it for a good price if we sell it ourselves. We have a large family in the Chu family who need to eat and drink. When we divided the family before, we felt sorry for the second son's disabled legs and didn't ask for pension money or filial piety money. Now that he is well, the remaining money can be used to buy out the family relationship between us. From now on, we have no relationship with each other."

"What about the beatings of the second and fourth sons?" asked the head of the village.

"They are your own children. What should you do if you beat them? Just raise them well and repay your parents for giving birth to you." Boss Chu answered from the side.

"Yeah." Old Chu nodded in agreement.

“I agree to sever ties, but the total price of buying the jade token and severing the relationship is one thousand taels. From now on, my family and the fourth child will sever ties with your Chu family.

But we don't have that much money today. If you agree, we can write the documents tomorrow and then we'll hand over the money and take the documents.

If not, we don't want our jade tokens anymore. Anyway, our separation agreement clearly states that there can be no financial transactions. This is also to repay your kindness in raising me."

"Brother Fu, I don't want the jade token anymore. I have you and my family now. It's not that important whether I find my family or not."

Chu Laoer knew that his wife had been dreaming recently. She kept calling her father, mother and brother in her dreams. He thought she was dreaming about her family, but she didn't tell him because she was afraid that he would worry after waking up.

So no matter how much money it cost, Chu Lao Er wanted to buy it for her and fulfill her dream.

The Chu family was shocked. They didn't expect the duck that flew away would come back. They would have money in the future.

"Okay, we'll deliver the stuff tomorrow morning."

After saying this, the group prepared to go home.

"Wait, who told you to go back?" The village head stopped several people who were about to leave.

"Li Zheng, is there anything else?"

Old Chu was very happy to receive the promise, and the head of the village was more smiling when he saw it.

"I can't hold you responsible for the beatings of the second and fourth sons. As the head of the village, I can't let you ruin the morale of the village and set a bad example for everyone.

If everyone was like you, relying on the fact that they are parents to beat, kill and abuse their children, our place would become a den of bandits.

Liu was the first to injure someone today, causing serious injuries to the second and fourth sons. He must be punished. He will be taken to the ancestral hall and beaten with 20 boards. He will be locked up in the ancestral hall for three days as a punishment."

The village head felt very offended when he saw Old Chu's smug look. He then ordered a few villagers to take Liu away.

Liu refused to give in and struggled to run away.

"Village head, my grandma is old, why don't I take the punishment for her?" Chu Qingran watched her grandma struggling and thought it would be better to let herself take the punishment instead. She could also gain a good reputation as a filial son.

"Ran'er, you still have to go to the academy to study. You can't bear the pain of being beaten. Mother will do this for you. You must not affect your studies."

Zhou couldn't bear to watch her son suffer, so she had to do it herself.

"Ran'er, you can't be beaten, so let your mother take my place. Third daughter-in-law, you will stay in the ancestral hall for three days in my place. It's settled."

Liu felt sorry for her grandson and didn't want to be beaten, so she arranged for her two daughters-in-law to share the pain of beating and punishment for her.

Everyone then went to the ancestral hall to watch the beating and closing of the ancestral hall.

After the beating, Zhou was helped back to Old Chu's house, while Chen was locked up. On the way back, no one felt sad about being beaten or punished, but instead, everyone's face was filled with joy of getting rich.
