Traveling through time and encountering war, I took the whole village to escape famine
Chapter 146 Wu Dazhu is frustrated 2
When everyone heard this, they were all shocked. Is this what a human being would say? Her daughter-in-law was about to die, yet she was still selling her granddaughter to save up a dowry for her daughter and buy meat for her grandson. This was simply not human.
"Bah... aren't you afraid that your granddaughter's meat will choke you to death if you use her money to buy meat?" A woman from Chujia Village who was watching the fun couldn't help but curse when she heard this.
The outspoken Second Wife couldn't stand it any longer and spat at Old Lady Wu's feet, "Bah! Old Lady Wu, you better have a conscience. Sooner or later, God will take you away."
Old Mrs. Wu was about to jump up and curse back, but she couldn't find the woman who cursed first in the crowd. She only saw the second grandmother standing in front. When she saw that it was the village head's wife, she swallowed her curse back. At this time, she didn't dare to go against the village head's family even if she had two courage.
This is a family affair, the village chief has no way of intervening. If you dare to scold the village chief's wife, it will make things worse and you will be in big trouble.
Yun Duo glanced at Wu Zhaodi at her feet and said, "You are so skinny that you can't even sell for two taels of silver even if you go to the big city. Your mother must have taken several doses of medicine on the way. Even if you sell yourself to me, it won't be enough."
Pan Di also brought her sister to kneel at Yun Duo's feet and kowtowed to her, "Miss Yun, please, as long as you can give my mother medicine, Lai Di and I will buy it for you to pay for the medicine."
Don't kneel down to me. "If your parents don't agree, I won't dare to buy it. Besides, one of you is ten and the other is four. What can you do? I still have to feed you."
Wu Dazhui was very calm at the moment. It was no exaggeration to describe his mood at this moment as hopeless. He was no longer angry or nervous.
It turned out that his mother really wanted to sell his three girls. At first he thought it was just her angry words, but after hearing it again, he couldn't help but believe it.
Wu Dazhu knew that his parents were not kind to his wife and daughter, but he never expected that they actually wanted to sell his poor daughter to save up a dowry for his sister and buy meat for his nephew.
Wu Dazhui didn't expect that his tolerance would lead to them becoming even more aggressive. This time he couldn't be so muddle-headed anymore. Life would be the same whether he had a son or not. Even if he didn't have a son, he still had three daughters, who were also his blood.
No matter how foolishly filial Wu Dazhui was, he could not let this family bully his wife and daughters anymore. He knew that Doctor Yun's family were all kind-hearted people, and he also understood what the little girl said just now. If he agreed, his daughters could be freed from suffering and would not have to suffer in this family.
He looked at his wife who was lying there in pain and sweating profusely, and he could not let his wife and daughter suffer any more.
As a man and a father, he must provide for his wife and daughter this time.
Wu Dazhu secretly thought that a good family like the Yun family would surely prosper in the future and would need servants. Even if he became a servant in Doctor Yun's family, it would be much better than letting his wife and daughter suffer in the Wu family.
Even if they were not sold to the Yun family as servants, their parents would still sell their three daughters in the future. It is hard to say what kind of family they would meet, or what kind of place they would be sold to.
After thinking through the pros and cons, Wu Dazhu made up his mind.
At this time, Wu Dazhui, who had been quiet for a while, stood up. The onlookers thought that he had accepted his fate and was ready to give up the lives of his wife and children. When Zhaodi and her two sisters saw their father stand up, they all burst into tears.
Wu Dazhu turned his head and looked at his three daughters who were kneeling at Yun Duo's feet, and said softly, "Don't cry, your mother will not die, don't worry!"
After saying that, he turned around and looked in the direction of Old Man Wu. "Dad, Mom, are you really going to give up on Zhaodi's mother? She has been married to our Wu family for fourteen years. Every day, she is the first one to get up to work before dawn and the last one to rest after dark. She gave birth to three daughters for me. She is just thirty years old, but look at her. She looks older than mom. Are you really so heartless that you won't leave her a chance to live?"
The Wu couple looked at their son who was so calm, and they felt indescribable strangeness in their hearts. It seemed that they had never really known this son. Old Man Wu said in a deep voice, "Big brother, it's not that your parents don't want to save your wife. You can see that our family really has no money. It's a bottomless pit. Your parents have no other choice!"
Wu Dazhu continued, "So what Dad meant was that if there was a way, Dad and Mom would not save my wife, right?"
Wu Dazhui's words put Wu Dazhu in a difficult position. If he said "yes", what if others knew that his family still had some savings and he didn't buy medicine for his daughter-in-law? Wouldn't that give people something to gossip about?
He also has to save face. Didn’t you see that it is always the old woman who takes the lead?
If he said that he simply didn't save the family because he had the money, people would criticize him. Although his Wu family had a bad reputation to begin with, that was only referring to his wife. Mr. Wu still had to maintain his reputation.
At this time, he was a little angry with Wu Dazhui. Why did he catch him and ask him?
On the other hand, he thought that even if he said yes and then refused to admit that he could afford the money, his son would have no choice but to accept the offer. Maybe his son would even be grateful to him.
As for selling the granddaughter in exchange for medicine, I don't think the Yun family would want a few young girls. The Yun family's conditions are not that good and they can't afford to support servants. A few young girls can't do much work and they still need to eat.
So Old Man Wu said, thinking he was speaking from the heart, "Big Boss! Your mother and I really have no other options. We have a big family to support, so how can we afford the expensive medicine? Even if I had money and options, I wouldn't just watch your wife die, right?"
After hearing what Old Man Wu said, Wu Dazhu knelt down again and kowtowed, "Thank you, Dad. Since Dad said that he would not watch my wife die if there was a way, I feel relieved."
After saying that, he glanced at his wife and daughter, and said with pretended happiness, "Wife, did you hear that? Dad said that he would not let you die if there was a way.
Then he turned around and asked Old Man Wu, "I believe what Dad said. If there is a way, I will not watch my wife die, right?"
Before Old Man Wu could react, he said, "Of course."
Wu Dazhu kowtowed to Old Man Wu and Old Lady Wu happily again, "Thank you, Dad and Mom!"
After saying that, he stood up with a smile and said, "Village head, fellow villagers, you all heard what my father said, right? If there is a way, I will not watch my wife die."
