Chapter 182: The Inside Story

After about a quarter of an hour, Lin Mo knew the reason why the two girls Qingyu and Lu Ying avoided him, and also knew why they were so afraid of the old bustard Tian Peilan.

In fact, it is said that Qingyu and Lu Ying are avoiding Lin Mo, but it is better to say that the two girls are keeping a distance from Lin Mo, and when the two women made this clear, Lin Mo was even more curious at that time.

The girl in the Chu Pavilion of Qinlou kept her distance from men? What kind of trouble is this? Lin Mo's thoughts at that time were surprisingly consistent with Liu Ruoshui's original thoughts.

thinks that Qingyu and Luying are trying to capture the old people.

After having his own conjecture, Lin Mo asked, and after Qingyu and Lu Ying hesitated slightly, they slowly said the reason.

It's not a desire to get away with it, but it's a very simple reason.

Qingyu and Lu Ying both met the men they liked, and the men they liked did not dislike their experiences and were willing to marry them, so the two women were reluctant to accept customers anymore.

The two girls also have enough money to redeem themselves, so they have to redeem themselves, and then follow the man they like, but the bustard Tian Peilan is naturally unwilling.

It's right to think about it, Qingyu and Lu Ying are the popular girls in Xiangyun Pavilion now, and they are the cash cow of Xiangyun Pavilion, when cultivating the two daughters, Tian Peilan also put a lot of thought and effort, how could she easily let the two daughters leave.

Listening to the story of the two women, Lin Mo guessed that if the two women wanted to successfully redeem themselves and leave, they would have to be at least thirty years old, and now that they were only twenty-five or sixteen, Tian Peilan naturally wanted to keep them and continue to squeeze their value.

The reason why Qingyu and Lu Ying are so afraid of Tian Peilan, and they have to listen to Tian Peilan's words, is because the deed of sale of the two daughters is still in Tian Peilan's hands.

What is the concept that Tian Peilan has the deed of sale of Qingyu and Luying, which is equivalent to saying that the two daughters are Tian Peilan's private property, just like an object and an animal.

Not even a human.

According to the laws of the Daqian Empire today, even if Tian Peilan kills Qingyu and Lu Ying privately, she will not be imprisoned and punished, and only needs to pay a certain amount of money.

After listening to the story of the two daughters, Lin Mowu sighed to himself, this may be the sadness of this era and the world!

Identities like Qingyu and Lu Ying, or servants in various prefectures, they can't be said to be a complete person at all, their status is equivalent to livestock, and sometimes even worse than livestock.

The servants in each mansion can be punished and killed at will, and if they are killed, the master only needs to pay a certain amount of money to the government in accordance with the law, and the matter is over.

And Qingyu and Lu Ying can only redeem their own betrayals, so that the two women can be regarded as people in the true sense, can they have relative freedom, and can enjoy the ups and downs of being people.

Gathering back his emotional heart, Lin Mo comforted Qingyu and Lu Ying a few words, and asked: "Two girls, this son takes the liberty of asking, how much money do you need to redeem yourself." ”

"Ten gold leaves!"

Under Lin Mo's comfort, Qingyu took the lead in stabilizing his mind.

Just as Qingyu's words fell, Lu Ying, who looked gloomy, added: "But Qingyu and I have already arrived for the first time with twenty gold leaves, and Mother Tian is still unwilling to let us redeem and leave." ”

Listening to Lu Ying's words, Lin Mo thought for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Qingyu girl, Lu Ying girl, with all due respect, according to the situation of the two of you, without three thousand gold leaves, your mother Tian would not be able to let you leave." ”

"Three thousand golden leaves!" Qing Yu and Lu Ying suddenly exclaimed.

After a brief pause, Lin Mo nodded slowly.

The price of 3,000 gold leaves is not what Lin Mo said nonsense, now Qingyu and Lu Ying are both twenty-six years old, and they are popular, and they can bring Tian Peilan at least 300 gold leaves a year.

If it is properly maintained, Qingyu and Lu Ying's thirty-five-year-old appearance will gradually decay, so that even if the value of the two of them is squeezed, Tian Peilan will let the two of them leave.

And even if she leaves Qingyu and Lu Ying at the age of thirty-five, Tian Peilan will not only need the so-called twenty gold leaves, or even ten gold leaves, then at least a hundred gold leaves.

In other words, it means that Qingyu and Lu Ying still have nine years for Tian Peilan to squeeze value out of them, so three thousand gold leaves in nine years is already Lin Mo's estimate.

If Tian Peilan has a bigger appetite, at least five thousand gold leaves.

Seeing Lin Mo nodding slowly, Qingyu and Lu Ying glanced at each other, and the hearts of the two women suddenly cooled by half, and suddenly sadness rose from their hearts, and their eyes were full of gloom and loss.

Wrapped in gloom layer by layer, Lu Ying suddenly raised her head, looked at Lin Mo, and said unwillingly: "But why, why, eighteen years ago, when Tian Peilan bought me and Qingyu, she only spent a total of two gold leaves, and on the contract of sale between me and Qingyu, it was also written that ten gold leaves can be redeemed." ”

Eighteen years ago, there was a catastrophic flood in Jiangzhou, and for a time the people were killed and injured countless times, and they were starving all over the wilderness, and Qingyu and Lu Ying, who were only eight years old at the time, were sold to Tian Peilan by their parents and entered this Xiangyun Pavilion.

Listening to Lu Ying's stubborn words, looking at Lu Ying's tearful and sad appearance, Lin Mo also shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Miss Lu Ying, the accounts are not calculated like this, and the words are not like you." I think you should also know that the deed of sale is consensual for it to be effective. ”

Qingyu and Lu Ying looked at Lin Mo together, and even Liu Ruoshui, who was a little depressed, also looked at Lin Mo, not knowing what Lin Mo meant by this, and asked, "My lord, what does it mean that both parties are willing to give full play to their benefits?"

A few months ago, Liu Ruoshui was also like Qingyu and Lu Ying, not even a person in the full sense, until Liu Ruoshui followed Lin Mo, and after the relationship underwent subtle changes, Lin Mo tore up the document of Liu Ruoshui selling himself into slavery, so Liu Ruoshui has more or less feelings about the current encounter between Qingyu and Lu Ying!

Seeing that Liu Ruoshui also asked, Lin Mo was busy explaining directly to the third daughter.

"In fact, it is easy to understand that the signing of the deed of sale is signed by the buyer and the seller, that is, your parents and Tian Peilan, and the party who is sold afterwards must also agree voluntarily to both parties. ”

Saying that, Lin Mo looked at Qingyu and Lu Ying, and said, "For example, Qing Yu and Lu Ying, if you want to redeem your deed of sale now, you have to ask your mother Tian to voluntarily agree, otherwise everything is not to be discussed." ”

"How could that Tian Peilan voluntarily agree, this is impossible!" As soon as Lin Mo's words were finished, Liu Ruoshui "ruthlessly" pointed out the biggest question here.

Lin Mo nodded slowly, "Yes, this is simply impossible!"

After that, Lin Mo looked at Qingyu and Luying, whose expressions became more and more serious, and said, "Qingyu girl, Luying girl, you understand now, the ten gold leaves written on the deed of selling yourself are actually useless at all. ”

For the obscure Dao in the Qin Mansion Chu Pavilion such as Xiangyun Pavilion, Lin Mo still knew very well.

What, how did Lin Mo know?

That's because of Tang Yunu, of course!

You must know that Tang Yunu is the bustard who has done the biggest business on the Zhongzhou Continent, and he doesn't know how many Oiran and popular cards he has, so he naturally understands the secret Tao in it.

Lin Mo's last words were like a steel needle inserted into the hearts of Qingyu and Lu Ying, stabbing the hearts of the two girls bloody, and the two women could no longer control their sadness and sobbed.

Listening to the sobs and whimpering voices of the two women, Lin Mo turned a blind eye, his face was quite cold, but Liu Ruoshui frowned together, and his face was distressed about Qingyu and Lu Ying.

Suddenly, Liu Ruoshui's little head turned, first glanced at Lin Mo with a smile, and then said to Qingyu and Lu Ying: "Two sisters, don't cry in a hurry, I have a good way, I'll ask the two sisters one thing now, two sisters, how much money do you have in total." ”

Hearing that Liu Ruoshui had a way, he glanced at himself with ill will before that, Lin Mo was inexplicably shocked in his heart, and felt that something was wrong, but Qingyu and Lu Ying were suddenly overjoyed, and slowly stopped sobbing and whimpering.

wiped his moist eyes with a handkerchief, pondered for a moment, and said: "Lu Ying and I each have something worth nearly fifty gold leaves, but the three thousand gold leaves that Lin Gongzi said are far from enough!"

"Not enough money, it's not a problem!" Liu Ruoshui shook his head very indifferently.

Immediately, in front of Qing Yu and Lu Ying, who were puzzled, Liu Ruoshui looked at Lin Mo with an innocent smile on his face, and showed a mouthful of big white teeth, and his jade lips were about to speak.

"Slow, Ruoshui, I understand what you mean, I really understand!" Lin Mo's heart trembled, and he hurriedly stretched out a hand, signaling Liu Ruoshui not to say it, lest he die of distress.

After seeing Liu Ruoshui smile with satisfaction, Lin Mo said to Qingyu and Luying: "Qingyu girl, Luying girl, this son can help you, but before, this son has two or three questions to ask you, and I ask you to answer them like this." ”

Qingyu hurriedly said: "Childe, may you ask!"

With the experience honed over the years, Qingyu and Lu Ying knew that the Lin Gongzi in front of them was not simple, not to mention anything else, just because he was dressed in a very luxurious and very luxurious way, they knew that his family had countless money.

Just look at the hairpin pinned to the crown on Lin Gongzi's head, although it looks simple and simple, but the well-informed Qingyu and Lu Ying know that it is an antiquity from the period of Emperor Wu of the previous dynasty, and it is very valuable.

The period of Emperor Wu of the previous dynasty is more than 500 years ago, but the lines on the hairpin are still preserved so clearly and clearly, I am afraid that its value can be judged by the price of thousands of gold leaves.

There are also brocade robes and accessories on their bodies, which are also precious things of unknown value, which makes Qingyu and Lu Ying know that five or six thousand gold leaves are just a small amount for this Lin Gongzi.

Thinking of this, this made Qingyu and Lu Ying's hearts suddenly have a glimmer of hope to get out of this sea of suffering.

Looking at the little light of hope in Qingyu and Luying's eyes, Lin Mo's face turned stern, and he said lightly: "Qingyu girl, Luying girl, don't hide it from the two of you, these six thousand gold leaves are indeed not too much for this son, but they are not too little. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Mo deliberately paused for a moment, looked at Qingyu and Lu Ying fixedly, and said, "Then I don't know what benefit this son-in-law will do to spend this not a small amount of money for the two of you?"
