Aunt Wang became excited when she heard what An Jiuyue said. She felt that An Jiuyue must have decided to sell Zheng’er because she had too many children and could not afford the high expenses.
In reality, Ministry Councilor He had offered 50 taels of silver during their negotiation because he thought highly of Qian Yizheng.
Nobody else would offer such a large sum of money!
“Five taels!” An Jiuyue’s eyes lit up. “That’s a lot!”
She could not help but sigh. She got her Lu’er with 100 copper coins, after all! Five taels of silver was a lot!
Aunt Wang saw she had a good chance now and grabbed the opportunity immediately.
“So you agree to it, right? If you’re willing, tomorrow… No, I’ll go to town and tell Ministry Councilor He now!”
“Well…” An Jiuyue drawled, looking hesitant.
“Jiuyue, don’t hesitate. Five taels of silver is already a lot. How about this? I’ll go to Ministry Councilor He’s house to ask. I’ll go now. If everything works out, I’ll come and take Zheng’er away tomorrow.”
Aunt Wang did not give her a chance to think and ran like the wind after saying a few words.

She was so happy that she forgot about the pain in her body and ran off quickly. She was afraid An Jiuyue would regret it and stop her from selling her child.
She did not notice An Jiuyue’s deep gaze fixed on her back as her expression changed slowly.
Qian Yiyun trembled and asked An Jiuyue, “Sister-in-law, are you… really selling your child?”
“Hm?”
An Jiuyue only turned to look at Qian Yiyun after Aunt Wang disappeared from her sight.
“When did I say that?” she countered.
“Well…”
Qian Yiyun recalled the conversation between An Jiuyue and Aunt Wang and realized she had not agreed to anything.
“Then what are you…”
An Jiuyue replied matter-of-factly, “Whoever signs the indenture and takes the money will naturally have to sell their children. What does that have to do with me?”
Aunt Wang wanted to sell children to earn a large sum of money. How could An Jiuyue get in her way?
Aunt Wang’s grandson was quite good-looking too. Ministry Councilor He should like him. Since she also said that a child would live a good life after joining Ministry Councilor He’s family, then let her grandson live a good life.
Qian Yiyun’s eyes widened. “Oh.”
So things can be settled this way too! I’m sure Aunt Wang will accept Ministry Councilor He’s money to secure this deal.
You have to hand over the child after you receive the money. Whoever receives it will naturally have to send their child away.
“Looks like we can’t go into the mountains tomorrow.” An Jiuyue sighed softly.
She had planned to go into the mountains to gather herbs over the next few days—what a pity.

She would have to delay that for a few days as this problem with Aunt Wang would not be settled so quickly.
“We can go after a few more days. I have nothing to do these days,” Qian Jiyun said to her with a smile.

“Alright. I’ll cook now.”
An Jiuyue had no choice but to nod and go upstairs to cook.
Qian Jiyun followed, but he stopped in his tracks and side-eyed his sister, who was about to follow them too.
“Why are you coming along?”

“I…” Qian Yiyun gaped and did not know how to reply.
