Chapter 140: The Little Peasant Girl Who Was Betrayed After the Disaster (4)

"He Wangshi, shut up!" the head of the village shouted, "No matter how good a family is, they will still become slaves! Once they become slaves, their life and death will be in the hands of others for the rest of their lives!"

With his eyes wide open, he stared at Mother He and said, "How could a parent not protect their own child? You and Boss He are unworthy of being parents!"

"I..." Mother He bit her lips a few times and then stopped talking.

Seeing that He's mother stopped talking, the head of the village looked at Su Li and said, "Xiao Yu, go on and tell me what you want to say!"

"It's like this! After I jumped into the river, I met the goddess of the river. She told me to set up a female household and buy myself. After I gave her the silver, I was no longer their granddaughter or their daughter! What do you think?"

Su Li looked at the head of the village and several elders and asked.

"Wait, Xiaoyu, I want to ask, why were your grandmother and your aunt injured?" The third uncle among the group asked, pointing to a pool of blood on the ground.

"They wanted to hit me, but they fell down! I have the blessing of the River Goddess now. They wanted to hit me, but they were punished by the River Goddess!" Su Li lied seriously.

"What? You got the blessing of the River Goddess?" The second uncle was surprised.

He asked He's mother who was standing by, "Did your mother and your little sister really want to hit Xiaoyu and then fall down? Tell the truth!"

Mother He, who originally wanted to deny it, nodded gently under the authority of the Second Uncle, "Yes, I don't know what happened, they fell, and then it became like this!"

"Okay, we understand!" The elders nodded and stopped asking about Grandma He's injury.

Afterwards, the village head discussed the matter of establishing a female household with several elders.

After a few simple conversations, the head of the village looked at Su Li and said, "According to the rules, an unmarried daughter cannot be registered as a female household, but with the blessing of the goddess of the river, we are willing to allow you to register as a female household!"

"Thank you, grandpas, for taking care of Xiaoyu!" Su Li thanked them.

"But, as you said, if you want to sever your relationship with the He family, you have to pay them some money. We will write a document of severance for you, and from now on you will no longer be a girl of the He family. How about it?" the second uncle asked.

"Sure, no problem!" Su Li nodded, "Old Lady He was planning to sell me for ten taels of silver, and the Goddess of the River just happened to give me ten taels of silver!" Su Li took out ten taels of silver from his sleeve and placed it in front of the head of the village, "And please, grandfathers, set up a separate household for the daughter after the marriage severance document is signed!"

"it is good!"

The head of the village asked He Laoer to go to his house to get pen and ink, and quickly wrote a document of severing the relationship for Su Li. He also asked He Laoer to go into the house and ask Old Lady He to put her fingerprints on it.

Seeing this, He's mother was still trying to persuade Su Li, "Xiao Yu, are you really not going to stay at home? If you leave, all the housework will be done by me! Why are you so ignorant and unfilial?"

"I've given you the money, so just treat me as someone who was sold! How can a person who was sold help you with work!" Su Li said indifferently without even looking at her.

"Xiao Yu, think about it again! Give these ten taels of silver directly to your grandmother. You are still your good daughter, okay? With these ten taels of silver, I believe your grandmother will no longer talk about selling you!" He's mother continued to persuade.

"Oh, and then after another two years, she will find someone to sell me to someone else as a wife, and get a few dozen taels of silver as a betrothal gift?" Su Li rolled his eyes, "You don't have to act pitiful in front of me! Just treat me as if I'm dead!"

Su Li stopped looking at her and put away the document of breaking off the relationship. "From now on, I am just He Xiaoyu. I will just be myself!"

"Okay, it's done, we should go! Xiaoyu, I will go to the county tomorrow to register a female household for you. If you have nowhere to go tonight, you can stay in the house at the east end of the village." The headman patted his robe and said.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Grandpa Li Zheng!" Su Li took out some copper coins from his sleeves, "These are the fees for the procedures for registering a daughter for me. The rest will be for you and the other grandfathers to drink tea!"

"Well, Xiaoyu is still sensible!" The headman then left with several elders of the village.

"Xiao Yu, where did you get the money? If you had taken it out earlier, your grandma wouldn't have sold you out!" Mother He was annoyed, "How could you be so ignorant, child!"

She stretched out her hand towards Su Li, "Hurry up and take out the document of severance of the relationship, and I will tear it up! From now on, you are still the daughter of the He family, the good daughter of your father and me!"

"Heh!" Su Li rolled her eyes, turned around and left the He family!

"He Xiaoyu! Once you step out of this house, we will not let you in even if you kneel down and beg us!" He's mother made a cruel statement!

Su Li waved goodbye and left the He family without looking back.

The moment she left the house, the silver and food that Old Lady He had hidden in her room suddenly disappeared and ended up in Su Li's hands.

Holding the heavy silver box and several pockets of miscellaneous rice and noodles, Su Li waved his hand to put them into the space and headed towards the east of the village.

That night, when Old Mrs. He asked Mother He to cook, she found out that there was no food left in the house!

Moreover, the silver she had hidden before and the ten taels of silver that He Xiaoyu gave her today were all gone!

"What's going on? Who came into my room today?" Looking at the empty cabinet under her, Old Mrs. He was so angry that her face turned red.

"Mom, I didn't take yours!" He Lao Er quickly denied, "I gave you the ten taels of silver, and you didn't lose anything! After that, I never came in again."

"Mom, your secret cabinet has always been where you sleep. If someone takes it, you will definitely notice it!" Boss He, who had just returned from work, looked at Grandma He helplessly and said.

"What should we do? All our belongings are gone! What should we do now?" Old Mrs. He began to cry.

"Husband, this thing of our mother disappeared very strangely. Do you think it was done by the little fish? She kept saying during the day that the River Goddess was blessing her..." He's mother said in a low voice.

"Don't talk nonsense, how could the goddess of the river help the little fish steal things!"

Boss He first shouted angrily in a low voice, then said, "I'm going to the east end of the village to see Xiaoyu, and then bring her back! Now my mother and little sister are injured, and you have to take care of the children. How can you leave her at home?"

"Well, I told her before to tear up the severance document and stay at home to help me with the work, but she just wouldn't listen!" Mother He looked very disappointed in her.

"What! This unfilial daughter, the house is in such a mess, and she is so ignorant! I know, if she doesn't come back, I will drag her back!" Hearing this, Boss He walked outside with an angry face.
