"Lan is pretty, literate, and skilled in Embroidery Flowers. Can't you give a little more?"
Granny Liu asked unwillingly, having cared for Lan with good food and drink since learning of her pregnancy, followed by a month of Fetus Protection Medicine and even employing a Taoist for rituals, which all together cost no less than Ten Taels of Silver.
And now to only sell for Five Liang of Silver, not even half the money was recouped!
What a loss indeed!
Tooth Granny said impatiently, "That's the price. If you're not selling, then keep the person!"
"Hey, how can you do business like this?" Granny Liu said discontentedly.
Since it's a deal, isn't it normal to negotiate? But this person, she just wouldn't budge!
"You still have the nerve to talk. If I had known this girl's reputation earlier, I wouldn't have been willing to get involved in this mess. You know I rarely deal with the Hua Building!"
"Mother, let Lan stay with us. She hasn't recovered yet," Liu Qing weakly persuaded.
