Chapter 482: Chapter 483: The matter of squabbling over money

This gaze was spine-chilling. Li Chunhua looked away, unable to maintain eye contact with her.

But Old Lady Li showed absolutely no guilt and pushed Sanni to the middle-aged couple: "Hurry! Take her away, and do whatever you see fit. Beat her a few times, starve her a bit, she’ll fall into line!"

They knew that Sanni wouldn’t submit this easily, so dragging her away by brute force would be the easiest way!

At just nine years old, Sanni was powerless against these two adults. Despair filled her eyes.

If she was taken away, she would never return, and she would never see Guibao again!

Guibao!!

Helian Qiao, who was playing with Gu Tingyun, suddenly stopped. She turned her head and said softly to Ma Xiulian, "Granny, I think Sanni is calling me."

Just now, she thought she faintly heard Sanni’s desperate, frightened cry.

Hearing this, Ma Xiulian laughed and said, "Sanni is probably just on her way to town now. When she returns, Granny will let her join us for lunch and then she can play with you for a while."

She didn’t think much of it, assuming that her granddaughter was just missing her sister.

After straining her ears and hearing nothing, Helian Qiao nodded, "Okay."

Her chubby, milky white baby fat trembled slightly.

Gu Tingyun acted as he pleased, reaching out to pinch her chubby cheeks. They felt tender and bounced right back.

Suddenly, he was struck by a desire to know if the little hamster’s face tasted as sweet as jelly.

So, he asked, "Guibao, can I lightly bite your face?"

Helian Qiao’s eyes went wide instantly. She cupped her face with her chubby little hands and looked at him warily, "No!"

To bite was to eat!

The bad dragon actually wanted to eat her!

Seeing her adorable, bristling reaction, Gu Tingyun held back a laugh and reassured her, "Won’t bite, won’t bite."

But felt slightly regretful inside.

However, the Little Princess was overly perceptive! Sensing his regret, she covered her chubby face and ran off with a scoot scoot scoot.

"Guibao!"

Gu Tingyun chased after her, pretending not to be able to catch up, "Wait for me."

Seeing the bad dragon couldn’t catch up to her, the Little Princess began laughing triumphantly, "I won’t wait for you!"

In the town, once everyone had left, Li Chunhua and Old Lady Li started squabbling over money.

"I want at least forty!" Old Lady Li pulled out sixty and tossed it to Li Chunhua.

Li Chunhua wasn’t satisfied. She took the money and angrily said, "We’re selling MY daughter! You need to give me another thirty, and I’ll split ten with you!"

She refused to lose forty yuan just like that.

This money represented her and her husband’s two-month wages, which could buy quite a bit of meat!

Upon hearing this, Old Lady Li scowled and scolded, "Ten yuan?! Are you giving alms?! After all this hard work and rushing about I’ve done, you want to give me ten yuan?! Dream on! We should have sold you off as a child bride back then. The Chen Family only offered thirty in the betrothal gifts. I didn’t benefit from your marriage, so now it’s time for you to repay your obligations to your mother!"

While muttering and complaining, she roughly pinched Li Chunhua’s arm.

"No deal! You should at least give me twenty!"

Li Chunhua didn’t back down. This money was for her son’s future bride price!

Seeing her mother tightly clutching the bag and refusing to give any more money, Li Chunhua, in her desperation, gathered her courage and tried to snatch it.

"You ungrateful brat, daring to lay hands on your own mother, I’ll beat you to death!"

The old woman didn’t restrain herself, and started beating and kicking Li Chunhua.
