After learning that her mother had passed away, her parents came with the news, and then she rushed back to her parents' home.
Of course, Mu Xin told her the details of her mother's illness later on.
She was not at her parents' house, but Mu Xin was.
After hearing what happened to her mother, Mulan was extremely angry. If she knew her mother was in such a situation, she would definitely bring her mother here and take good care of her. Her mother would not be forty years old at such a young age. died.
This is not the most important thing. What is irritating is that just after her mother was buried, her grandmother was so inhumane that she even said that she would sell her sister Mu Xin to an old widower in the village. Twenty taels of silver.
On the surface, the intention was to get married, and the twenty taels of silver given was just a gift, but Mulan knew that this meant selling her sister.
These days, people would still be accused of selling their daughters, so her grandmother found such an excuse.
Mulan had heard about the old widower. He had a wife before, but he beat her to death.
She also likes to gamble, likes to beat people, and has a bad temper. Now she is over fifty. She wants to marry a wife and go back to have children. How could Mulan let her sister fall into such a sea of fire.
If Mu Xin really got married and was ruined, let alone say, the main reason is that we don’t know if she will be ruined in the future as well.
After all, he killed one wife first, who knows if he will kill the second one.
Of course, after selling Mu Xin and getting twenty taels of silver, she could remarry her father and marry another woman. When the time comes to have another child, maybe he will be able to give birth to a boy, and he can also carry on the family lineage for his father's family.
Mulan's father is also not a thing. He feels that Mulan's mother failed to give him a son, which makes him feel very embarrassed, so he doesn't like his wife. This time Grandma Mulan made such an arrangement for him, and he naturally agreed happily.
If you can really have a son, that would be even better. After he has a son, no one will laugh at him.
Mulan was extremely disappointed with the people in her natal family.
Even a beast wouldn't be able to do such an immoral thing.
After returning this time, Mulan had a big quarrel and brought Mu Xin back directly.
Mulan didn't want her sister to stay in such a home. Naturally, Mu Xin would not be allowed to suffer like this.
When Mulan brought Mu Xin back, the Mu family did not agree so easily. In contrast, Mulan had to discuss and agree. She gave five taels of silver so that Mu Xin could come back with her.
Five taels of silver was just Mulan's father's betrothal gift, so both parties were giving in.
However, Mulan must give these five taels of silver to the Mu family within half a month, otherwise she will take Mu Xin back and marry that old widower.
Compared with her sister's life, Mulan felt that five taels of silver was still enough.
Although he was reluctant to take out the five taels of silver, he knew that if he didn't take it out, the Mu family would really force her sister to marry the old widower.
After all, the Mu family is extremely shameless and weird, so it's not impossible that they can do this kind of thing.
Naturally, she couldn't take out the five taels of silver. Thinking about it, she had to borrow it from Zhao Yun'er and then return it to Zhao Yun'er.
…
Mulan was in a daze for a moment, recovering from her memories, and then held Mu Xin's hand a little tighter.
"But sister..." Mu Xin frowned slightly, very worried about Mulan's situation.
