My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s

Chapter 589: Chapter 581: Worth 500 Yuan Chapter 589: Chapter 581: Worth 500 Yuan “Exactly,” the fat man said smugly, starting to whistle again, “To avoid dreaming in the long night, let’s go see Hu Lao Si later, he’s the one who deals in this kind of trade.”

The bald man kept nodding in agreement.

Trading a dead person for a live one, and earning some extra money from it, they were indeed making a fortune today.

“She’s so ugly,” a thin and experienced man said, sizing up the half-dead woman on the ground as if appraising a piece of goods.

“No matter how ugly, she’s still a woman,” the bald man hastily interjected, fearing that they wouldn’t be able to make a sale.

If they had to keep her and she happened to be good-looking, wouldn’t he be the one without a wife now?

But she was so ugly that just the sight of her gaunt face made him nauseous.

How could he possibly share a bed with her?

The more he thought about it, the more queasy he felt.

“I know she’s a woman,” Hu Lao Si shot the bald man a look, “I never said she was a man.”

The corner of the bald head twitched, and he held his tongue.

Hu Lao Si contemplated for a while, then held out five fingers.

“Deal.”

“Five thousand?” The bald man’s eyes lit up, “Five thousand yuan could support us for a while, half a year, maybe, and we could find something else to do.”

“You wish.”

Hu Lao Si snorted dismissively.

“Considering her condition, she can only be sold to the hookers in the mountains.

Look at her, if she’s sick and dies on me, I’ll be making a loss.”

“So, five hundred.

Do you sell or not?”

“Five hundred?”

Upon hearing ‘five hundred’, the bald man was almost jumping out of his skin.

“How could it possibly be five hundred?”

Yes, how could it be?

Isn’t it said that the women they bring in can be sold for at least two thousand each?

All women are equal in this trade; how could his be worth only five hundred?

What the hell could he do with five hundred yuan?

The gap between five thousand yuan and five hundred yuan wasn’t merely an extra zero, it was a whole different ball game.

“Only five hundred, take it or leave it.”

If Hu Lao Si had sleeves to roll up, he would have done so and walked away already.

“I’m spending five hundred and taking the risk.

If she drops dead in the meantime, that’s my money down the drain.

Who knows how much more I would have to cough up to cover the loss?”

He gestured firmly towards the door, “If you don’t sell, take her and leave now.”

The bald man glanced towards the fat man, who hadn’t said anything since their arrival.

He was now waiting for the fat man to speak.

He subtly nudged the fat man’s shoulder.

“Bro, sell or not?”

The fat man gritted his teeth, his fists crunching.

“Alright,” he lifted his gaze, “Five hundred it is.

Hand over the cash, and you keep the girl.”

“Even at five hundred, I’m reluctant to buy,” Hu Lao Si took out the money, wetted his fingers a bit with his saliva, and counted five notes.

He couldn’t help but wince a little.

This wasn’t funny, it was money.

Just like that, he lost five hundred yuan.

His heart ached at the thought.

Before he could withdraw his hand, a forceful tug pulled the money away.

It was none other than the bald man.

The money in hand was theirs, and there was no way they would give it back.

The fat man wasn’t stupid, he could tell that Hu Lao Si was having second thoughts.

The woman was too ugly and sickly, and she could drop dead any second.

If that happened, she would only be worth the shovel needed to bury her.

The fat man gave the bald man a knowing look, and before Hu Lao Si could react, they both bolted for the door.

The transaction was simple: money for goods.

Now they had both.

Whoever dared to back out was a son of a bitch.

Looking at his empty hands, Hu Lao Si felt like collapsing onto the ground.

Five hundred yuan, his five hundred yuan.

He lowered his gaze to the half-dead woman on the ground and felt a pang of regret so strong it brought tears to his eyes.

With a grim expression, he gave the woman on the ground a forceful kick.

“You better stay alive.

If you dare to die on me, I’ll skin you and grind your bones into dust.”

But the woman on the ground clung to life with relentless tenacity.

Just a few sips of water revived her, giving her a burst of energy.

She would not die, she would survive.

No matter what adversity she faced, she would fight through.

Meanwhile, at the Tong Family residence, Tong Feng looked livid, as though he wanted to eat the people around him alive.

“Tong Shu, what happened?

I asked you to watch her, and you let her slip?”

“I’m sorry, Grandpa, I don’t know how she managed to run away.”

Tong Shu kept her head low, maintaining an apologetic façade.

This only infuriated Tong Feng more.

He slammed his fist onto the quilt, then picked up the teacup from the table.

If anyone else were standing in front of him right now, he might have hurled the cup at their heads.

“I told you to starve her for a few days, and you still let her escape!”

Tong Feng was furious enough to tear Tong Shu apart right now.

Even if she did escape, the news getting out would result in catastrophic damage to the Tong family, no matter whether people believed it or not.

They couldn’t afford to lose this game of faces.

Tong Shu certainly couldn’t afford it.

“I didn’t do anything,” Tong Shu defended herself with a grimace on her face, “I only let her drink water and barely fed her anything for three days.

How could she have the energy to run away?”

Tong Feng scoffed, “Looks like she played you.

She wasn’t weak, she was just biding her time to escape.”

Tong Shu kept quiet, enduring Tong Feng’s scolding without saying a word.

She continued to put on a remorseful facade, but a hint of a smile curled at the corners of her mouth.

“Grandpa, what should we do now?”

She only asked when Tong Feng’s curses began to lose their vehemence, his rant wearing him down and making his hands and feet go numb.

“She’s probably hiding somewhere right now.”

Tong Feng stood up, his hand slamming vigorously on the table.

“Keep a close eye on the hospital.

If she shows up, you must silence her by any means necessary.

This matter, it could be the downfall of the Tong Family if she decides to talk.”

“I understand, Grandpa.”

Tong Shu agreed dutifully, but a wicked smile played across half of her face hidden in the shadows.

Of course, she didn’t really need to do anything.

The woman’s mouth had already been permanently shut.

As for the rest, Tong Feng had it all planned out.

He had cleared any connections between him, the Tong Family, and the incident.

Even if Tang Yuxin really did appear, what could she possibly do?
