Chapter 362 Selling a Daughter
Mingyue was stunned when she heard her mother's words. She lived frugally for so many years and didn't save a penny. She sent it all to her family. Where can she get three hundred taels of silver!
Thinking of the past, Mingyue felt somewhat aggrieved, and said it directly.
"I don't have that much money. Besides, he gets married as soon as he gets married. Why does he need so much money? What about the money I sent to my family in the past few years? Did you all use it for gambling?"
After hearing Mingyue's words, Lin Ting glanced at her coldly and said lightly.
"Your brother buys land and builds a house. There is no need for money. If you ask you to take it, you can take it. There is so much nonsense."
After finishing speaking, he did not forget to spit.
"I know that you have no skills, guarding such a big shop, you can't even get three hundred taels,"
When Mingyue was scolded, her face didn't fluctuate much, as if she was used to it, after a long time, she just kept talking.
"I have no money."
As soon as she finished speaking, to Mingyue's surprise, Lin Ting didn't show her teeth and claws, but rarely showed a loving expression.
"It doesn't matter if you don't have any money, that's... when you came home last time, the elder in the county fell in love with you.
The wedding date is set in half a month, you pack up and go back with us this trip. "
When Mingyue heard the three hundred taels of dowry, the expression on her face immediately froze. Whose family is so generous, and she is not a beautiful girl, so she paid so much money.
Moreover, since ancient times, to marry a wife requires three letters and six engagements. Although there are betrothal gifts, there is no mention of giving money directly.
Thinking of this, Mingyue asked vigilantly.
"Who is here to propose marriage?"
Lin Ting dodged her eyes and hesitated for a long time to say a name.
"Yang Zhong."
"Yang Zhong? His sons are about the same age as mine, and there are more than a dozen concubines in the backyard alone. Mother, are you going to sell your daughter!"
She said that ordinary people would pay so much money. It turned out that merchants bought concubines.
When Lin Ting heard Mingyue's description, although she felt uncomfortable, she still insisted.
"What's wrong with selling a daughter? What's wrong with the concubine's house? It's nothing for my mother to raise you so big. Let me tell you, I've already collected the gift money. If you don't want to marry, just take the money!"
Ming Yueqi's chest heaved violently. She knew her mother loved money since she was a child, but she didn't know that she could do so much for money, she said coldly.
"What you said about marrying your younger brother is probably just a cover. Your purpose is to want money."
Seeing that her face was torn, Lin Ting didn't hide it, she slapped Mingyue's face with a "slap", and said without hesitation.
"What's wrong with asking for money, have I raised you for so many years for nothing? If it wasn't for asking you for such a broom star, how could Jiahong be like this.
I’m going to say here today, you can either get married or get money, you choose one. "
Mingyue's side face turned red from the beating, but compared to the pain on her flesh, her heart hurts more.
Actually, she had heard others say that she was adopted by Lin Ting.
Back then, Lin Ting had never had a child, so she wanted to adopt one, but within two years, she became pregnant.
Ming Jiahong was born abnormally, which broke Lin Ting's heart. Mingyue is also very clever. As time went by, Lin Ting became more and more displeased with Mingyue. She always felt that she took advantage of her son's luck.
For this reason, she drove Mingyue out to work to earn money a long time ago.
Now there is a good deal, of course she will sell Mingyue mercilessly.
Mingyue didn't expect Lin Ting to bring this matter to the table, she said with a cold face.
"Just because I'm not your own, you're going to despise me like this?
How much money I have given to my family over the years, isn’t it enough to pay you back? "
