Lame Hu laughed loudly: "So what if you're fifteen, you can have a baby!"

With that, she dragged Gu Xiaohua into the house.

Gu Xiaohua was so scared that her face turned pale and tears started streaming down her cheeks. "Uncle, please let me go. I can work, I can do anything!"

She anxiously called out to Old Lady Hu, "Aunt, I won't be eating steamed buns anymore!" Let me go! "

"What are you screaming for!" Lame Hu flew into a rage and slapped Gu Xiaohua hard in the back, "Do you know anything about seniority?"

With that, he no longer had any patience and dragged Gu Xiaohua away.

Gu Linhuan panicked. Gu Xiaohua could not stay in the Hu Family for even a minute longer. This was a devil's nest!

Not caring about anything else, she reached out to knock on the door while shouting, "Little Flower, Little Flower, are you there?"

In the courtyard, Lame Hu and Old Lady Hu were both stunned for a moment.

Gu Xiaohua recognized Gu Linhuan's voice, and while Lame Hu was still in a daze, she quickly broke free and ran towards the door, shouting, "Linhuan! Sister Linhuan, save me!"

Lame Hu squinted his eyes.

Old Lady Hu walked up to the door and asked, "Who are you?"

Gu Linhuan shouted, "I'm Xiaohua's elder sister, come over to see Xiaohua!"

Lame Hu slowly walked over and grabbed Gu Xiaohua's wrist. He said to Old Lady Hu, "Mom, open the door!"

Old Lady Hu opened the door when the door latch sounded.

Gu Linhuan saw the battered Gu Xiaohua with a glance. Gu Xiaohua's face was swollen on one side, her hair was scattered, and her face was full of tears.

Due to the hot weather, she was wearing thin and short sleeves. Gu Linhuan could immediately see the shocking number of needles on her arm!

Gu Linhuan's anger rose in an instant. She had thought that Gu Xiaohua would suffer, but never thought that she would be tortured to such an extent.

She suppressed her anger and said, "I'm Xiaohua's cousin, Gu Linhuan. I came here to see my sister, but I didn't expect to see this. It seems that your Hu family isn't satisfied with this marriage."

"Gu Linhuan?" Lame Hu had a fierce look in his eyes, "I don't care who you are. We'll pay with one hand and hand with the other. Our deal has been completed! "

"Payment?" Hand in the person? You are not allowed to buy or sell human beings right now! " Gu Linhuan slipped past Old Lady Hu and was about to pull Gu Xiaohua away.

Lame Hu pulled Gu Xiaohua aside.

Old Lady Hu rolled up her sleeves and looked Gu Linhuan up and down, "Hey, we gave you a betrothal gift. She's already married. "Alright, give me three thousand yuan!"

Gu Linhuan suppressed her anger and understood that she had come with an unreasonable reputation.

In these villages, due to the remoteness of the village, some rules were established. For example, one could marry someone without a certificate, or one could marry someone at the age of fifteen. If such a thing were to be reported to anyone, it would only be mud in the countryside.

However, it seemed that Old Lady Hu was dissatisfied with Gu Xiaohua's price and had always felt that she had suffered a loss.

It was something he could do on this point.

Thinking of this, Gu Linhuan said to Old Lady Hu, "It's great to have money, ah. I'll give you back your betrothal gift. Leave my sister to me!"

"Where's the money? Hand it over!" Old Madam Gu immediately extended her hand.

"I didn't bring it, but I can bring it to you in a few days!" Gu Linhuan said confidently.

"Tsk, who are you lying to? You think I'm a three-year-old? " Old Lady Hu spat.

"Thirteen!" Gu Linhuan secretly exclaimed.

With a 'shua' sound, the System Panel appeared in front of her.

Due to the sudden incident, she had come out too hastily this time without any preparation.

What she didn't expect was that Gu Xiaohua would be abused as soon as she arrived at the Hu household. She also didn't expect the situation to be so serious, so she had no choice but to call the system.

Old Lady Hu and Lame Hu were arguing noisily on the side, so Gu Linhuan didn't have time to pay attention to them.

After clicking a few times, she suddenly saw the potion for 'Temporary Glamour Enhancement'.

I'll use it for now.

Gu Linhuan pretended to give up and turned her back. With a tap of her finger, she exchanged the money.

A small medicine bottle immediately appeared in her hand.

Without any hesitation, she raised her head and drank it. The bottle of medicine in her hand disappeared.

Then, she turned around.

Looking at Old Lady Hu, Gu Linhuan's expression was calm as she said, "Aunt Hu, you should know that there are a lot of gifts in the Three Thousand Colour Ceremony. In our village, we have never heard of such a high gift! With this money, your family will definitely be able to find a tall and fat one to raise. "

"My sister is still young and in poor health, so she can't do much work. Why don't you let me take her back and return the wedding gift to you!"

"You mean what you say?" Old Lady Hu stared at Gu Linhuan, her yellow eyes rolling around.

"I'll write you a promissory note for three thousand yuan. I'll give it to you in three days. How about it?" Gu Linhuan said slowly, "You don't know me, so you should know my father. Gu Youcai, he knows how to write. He can make money! I've heard of all the people in this town! "

Gu Youcai was indeed a talented person, but the villagers all had an inexplicable amount of admiration for him.

Unfortunately, Gu Youcai's talent name …

The corners of Gu Linhuan's mouth curled up into a sneer.

"Gu Youcai …" Old Lady Hu continued to roll her eyes. "If you want to bring her back, that's fine. You can give me four thousand promissory notes!"

"Four thousand?" Gu Linhuan's face darkened as she pointed at Gu Xiaohua. "Then how can I deal with my sister being beaten up like this?"

"So what? "A lazy daughter-in-law doesn't respect the mother-in-law. Can't I just hit her a few times?" Old Lady Hu stretched her neck. "This matter doesn't matter to you no matter where you go!"

Gu Linhuan gritted her teeth.

What a shrew!

Old Lady Hu was forceful, and no one dared to provoke her. Furthermore, she had the backing of a village head and a nephew. Even if she complained, it would be impossible for her to report it.

At this moment, Gu Xiaohua's legs suddenly gave way and she sat on the ground.

"Little Flower," Gu Linhuan hurriedly supported her and raised her head to say to Old Lady Hu, "Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you, my sister is weak. She usually needs to eat tonic or she'll faint!"

"Replenishment?" Old Lady Hu exclaimed, "She's so expensive!" Our family doesn't have any tonics! "

Gu Xiaohua closed her eyes and fell into Gu Linhuan's arms.

Looking at Gu Xiaohua's fluttering eyelashes, Gu Linhuan clicked her tongue.

Unexpectedly, Gu Xiaohua was quite smart.

"Little Flower!" Gu Linhuan panicked and shook Gu Xiaohua. She then looked up and said to Old Lady Hu, "Auntie Hu, please call a doctor for us."

"What kind of doctor is he, he's unlucky and sickly!" Old Lady Hu frowned in disgust. "Take him away, take him away!"

Gu Xiaohua was very thin and light. Gu Linhuan dragged her along and was about to leave.

"Wait!" Old Lady Hu rolled her eyes. "Leave a promissory note. Remember to send the money within three days. Otherwise, even if she dies, I will drag her back!"

"Three thousand!" Gu Linhuan immediately said.

"Alright, 3,000 is 3,000!" Old Lady Hu pushed Lame Hu away, "Go get some ink and paper!"

Lame Hu was a little hesitant.

Old Lady Hu became angry and pushed him, "What are you doing? To be captivated by this little hoof in such a short time? Hurry, I'll buy you something even better for three thousand yuan! "

Lame Hu had no choice but to bring paper, pen and ink. Gu Linhuan wrote the promissory note and pressed the handprint.

After she was done, Gu Linhuan dragged Gu Xiaohua out of the main entrance.

With a bang, the door to the Hu family mansion was slammed shut.

Old Lady Hu's voice could be heard, "Pfft, it's not worth 3000 yuan at all. I've been feeling so regretful over these past two days. I've finally sent him away!"

Gu Linhuan dragged Gu Xiaohua to the car.

"Alright, hurry up and wake up. I don't have the strength to carry you to the car!" Gu Linhuan whispered to Gu Xiaohua.

Gu Xiaohua immediately opened her eyes.
