Chapter 498: Chapter 499: Taking Advantage of a Crisis

This little girl is way too strong!

Having only kicked one hole, Little Princess still seemed dissatisfied, lifting her foot to kick again.

Ma Xiulian hurriedly stopped her: "Oh my precious, don’t hurt your foot."

The people in the hollow valley watched in shock. What’s so special about this little girl?

"I’ll open it, I’ll open it." Madam Zhang, heartbroken over her own door, rushed forward to unlock it.

As soon as the door opened, Sanni rushed out and hugged Helian Qiao, crying out joyfully, "Guibao!"

She had thought that she would never see Guibao again!

"Sister, you’re crying so loud!"

Helian Qiao tilted her head to avoid the noise, causing her ears and forehead to throb.

Sanni immediately stopped crying, wiped away her tears and smiled: "Okay, sister won’t cry anymore."

Knowing that her sister simply didn’t like crying, she didn’t feel sad at all.

She then turned her teary eyes towards Ma Xiulian and Chen Dazhu, and sobbed, "Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle Four."

Ma Xiulian took her hand, saying: "Good girl, you’ve suffered. Let’s go home."

Having said that, she took out twelve big round coins from her pocket, placed them on the counter, and said to the Zhang Family: "The extra twenty is for the door."

Then they all left with Sanni.

The people in the valley stood silently on the side, watching them take the girl, not daring to stop them.

Especially those families who had bought wives before, they were so relieved that they had not been punished by Gods.

They thought it must have been the Zhang family not worshipping the Mountain God sincerely, so the god did not bless their home.

In the future, they must be more sincere!

The Zhang family felt as if their hearts were bleeding. They felt they had lost so much!

Not only was their purchased wife gone, the sweet apricot tree was split, and even the pig they had raised for half a year and were about to sell, was struck dead!

How were they going to survive the new year?!

So, old Madam Li began to cry out to the villagers: "Everyone, please help us! Will someone buy this pig? Otherwise, we’ll have nowhere to turn when the new year comes!"

The pig, burnt by lightning, would certainly not sell in the lower market. Their only hope was that the villagers would help.

But the villagers took advantage of the situation: "We can buy the pig, but the price will be half of the outside price. We will help you buy it for four cents a pound!"

They had just presented a united front because if they hadn’t stepped in, no one would help them next time, so they had to stand together.

But now they are all villagers, and it is a matter of money, they will not give any face!

"What?! If we sell it for four cents a pound, our family will starve in the new year!" exclaimed Madam Zhang, this haggling was too ruthless!

The villagers, however, took it for granted: "This pig was struck by lightning. It’s a punishment from the gods. If we weren’t already pitiful, we wouldn’t dare buy it!"

"Even pork from a pig killed a day ago can’t sell for less than three cents a pound! Just add a little more!" Madam Zhang begged.

The villagers were reluctant to compromise: "Those pigs are killed by folks, but yours was struck by lightning, who knows if eating it will cause trouble. If we said four cents, then it’s four cents!"

They knew that the Zhang family would agree.

After all, the pig was dead, and if they didn’t sell it, the price would only go down. Or they would have to eat the pig themselves.
