Quick Transmigration: Can This Kind of Scum Become the Chosen One?

Chapter 210: Cannon Fodder in the Confiscated Property and Exile Story 15

However, the eldest son's wife was unwilling to cooperate with them in buying the cart.

What's the difference between those three and disabled people? Cooperate with them? Are you trying to use them as laborers? You wish!

After being rejected by the first wife, Aunt Wang went to find other women.

But when they saw the condition of the three, the others became unwilling.

These three look like the kind of people who can only sit in a car; you wouldn't hire them for a collaboration.

Aunt Wang searched around but couldn't find anyone to cooperate with.

What can we do if no one is willing to buy the cart? Jiang Yangyi's condition is really bad; he can't walk at all, and even standing up is difficult.

Does that mean she can only buy a seat?

Ten taels of silver is a lot of money for a seat, and only Jiang Yangyi can sit in that seat.

Later, when Jiang Yangyi's foot injury healed and he could walk again, he couldn't let her and Jiang Ping sit down for a while.

If they wanted to sit, they had to pay ten taels of silver.

The three of them wanted thirty taels of silver, but she and Jiang Yangyi didn't have thirty taels of silver between them.

Aunt Wang wanted to ask the old lady to let Jiang Yangyi sit on the old lady's cart for a while, just a corner would be fine.

She could contribute three taels of silver, as if they were buying the cart together.

The old lady is resting.

Aunt Wang came to the old lady's side.

"Grandma, I have a favor to ask of you. Yi'er's foot is badly injured and he can't walk. Could you let Yi'er sit on the cart for a while? I'm willing to spend three taels of silver to buy him a seat."

Before the old lady could speak, Madam Li came over.

"Aunt Wang, what are you up to? Our Yu'er is still sitting on the cart, and you're letting a man sit on it? Isn't this ruining Yu'er's reputation?"

“Madam, I didn’t mean that. Yi’er and Yu’er are siblings, how could they ruin each other’s reputation? Besides, they are innocent in public, everyone can see that.”

"There's only so much space on this cart. Even Xu'er couldn't get a seat yet, and Jiang Yangyi is trying to squeeze in. What if he bumps into the old lady?"

"No, Yi'er only needs a small corner. She just needs to occupy a tiny spot on the side. She definitely won't crowd the old lady."

Once Yi'er's foot heals, he won't need to sit anymore, and he can even help the master push the stroller.

Aunt Wang looked at Jiang Linyun pleadingly.

"You'll say Jiang Yangyi can't walk anymore and needs to get in the car, then you'll say Jiang Ping can't walk anymore and needs to get in the car, and next time it'll be you who can't walk anymore and needs to get in the car."

You're just taking advantage of the old lady's kind heart. You'll end up taking up all the seats on this cart, and even the old lady will have to give up her seat.

The old lady is too old to walk, so she bought this cart.

None of you want to leave?

You said Jiang Yangyi injured his foot, but why don't you think about how the master and Xu'er also wear iron chains on their feet and get their feet rubbed raw?

The master is already exhausted from pushing three people, and you still want to come up? Don't you even consider whether the master can push them?

They even said they were willing to give three taels of silver. If you were so kind, why didn't you offer to buy a cart for the old lady to ride in from the beginning?

Why didn't you come over yesterday to help the old man push the cart?

You helped push the cart, and the kind-hearted old lady was willing to let Jiang Ping sit in the cart for a while.

Now that you can't walk anymore, you're thinking about the old lady and the old man?

The old lady and Jiang Linyun, who were listening to this, both felt that what Li said made sense.

Why didn't you just pay for the cart yesterday?

I never thought about whether she was able to move around at her age.

The second wife helped her push the cart, and she invited Li Shi and Jiang Yu to come up and sit with her.

If Aunt Wang were to help push the cart, she could also let Jiang Ping come up and sit with her.

The old lady remained silent and continued to sit calmly.

Jiang Linyun listened to Li's words and agreed.

Aunt Wang only thought of them because she herself couldn't walk anymore.

Moreover, Aunt Wang looks disheveled now, not dressed up properly, and seems to have aged ten years in an instant, which makes her less attractive to Jiang Linyun.

"If you're really sincere, then buy this cart."

And what things do you have that you've been hiding? Shouldn't you take them out and give them to the old lady as a token of your respect?"

Li looked at Aunt Wang, sizing her up and down, wondering how much silver they still had hidden away.

Aunt Wang was startled; Li was going to take everything from them.

The Li family has always been targeting them.

If they really hand it over, the Li family will not give them any way out.

Aunt Wang glanced at the old lady and watched coldly.

The old lady has always been like this.

She glanced at Jiang Linyun again, but Jiang Linyun avoided her gaze.

This means they don't want to speak up for her.

There's no way she'd hand everything over; if she did, she'd truly be cutting off her own path to survival.

Aunt Wang had no choice but to leave.

Seeing his mother humiliated, Jiang Yangyi said defiantly, "Mother, don't beg them. I can walk by myself, it's okay. Just wrap it with two more layers of cloth and it won't chafe."

"Yi'er, let me think of something. Your foot injury is too bad; you can't walk anymore."

At this moment, someone came forward, wanting to seek cooperation.

However, the condition is that Aunt Wang will pay all ten taels of silver for the cart, they can help push the cart, and two of them will sit on the cart, while two more people can sit on Aunt Wang's side.

This is equivalent to spending five taels of silver to hire someone to push the cart.

Moreover, once the cart reaches its destination, it will belong to both families.

If Aunt Wang wants to take the cart away, she will need to give them five taels of silver.

If Aunt Wang agrees, he can cooperate.

She spent money to buy the cart, but the cart didn't completely belong to her.

Isn't this equivalent to spending ten taels of silver to buy two seats?

The other party didn't spend a single penny; all they had to do was push a cart, and two people could ride in it. They really made a fortune.

Aunt Wang felt that this deal was not very worthwhile.

But at that time, were there any other people willing to cooperate with them?

This is the only one.

If we don't cooperate with him, what will happen to Jiang Yangyi?

Moreover, Jiang Ping was also very tired. Her health had not improved. She was able to walk all morning on her own because she knew that Yi'er could not carry her, so she could only grit her teeth and persevere.

After walking for another afternoon, Aunt Wang didn't know if Jiang Ping could keep going.

Should we agree to this cooperation?

Just as Aunt Wang was hesitating, an old man next to her suddenly fainted.

The old man is quite old and has walked for so long that he has suffered heatstroke and fainted.

Accompanying the elderly man were a young couple and a three-year-old boy.

The little boy couldn't walk, so the man carried him the whole way.

Moreover, they had no money; only the man's shackles and chains had been removed, while the young woman, the little boy, and the old man's chains remained.

One was too old to wear shackles, and the other was too young; they only had bracelets and anklets.

Aunt Wang had just asked them if they wanted to buy a carriage together, but they had no money and couldn't even remove the chains binding them, so how could they afford a cart?
