Volume 1 The Sunrise and the West Mountain Chapter 53 Windfall from the Sky
In the black package, there was actually half a bag of silver ingots, and under the moonlight, the silver shimmered.
actually made Mu Yeji's big mouth right, and in the middle of the night, someone really sent him silver.
Qin Xiao was dumbfounded, he only felt unbelievable, he didn't care about anything else, rushed to the courtyard gate, opened the door and went out, looked left and right, the entire wooden alley was blackly lit, and the street was empty.
The packages were thrown into the courtyard for a long time, and even if the man left slowly with his hands behind his back, he would have already walked out of the wooden alley.
Back in the courtyard, Qin Xiao tied the courtyard door, went over and opened the package again, to make sure that he was not dazzled, the package was full of complete silver ingots, and there was not a single piece of loose silver.
He fastened the black package, carried the bag back to the house with both hands, and estimated that the bag weighed at least a hundred pounds, that is, it contained a thousand taels of silver.
A thousand taels of silver may not be a big deal for a wealthy man, but for ordinary people, it is definitely an astronomical amount.
My own house with a yard only cost a few dozen taels of silver, and a good shop in the area of Turtle City can definitely be sold for two hundred taels of silver.
The homes of ordinary people in Xiling are already very solid to earn more than ten or twenty taels of silver in a year, and one thousand taels of silver is enough for an ordinary family to have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime.
Back in the house, Qin Xiao put down the package and turned around to close the door.
As soon as he fastened the bolt of the door, the lights on the side turned on, but he saw Mu Yeji holding a lit oil lamp, coming out of the room with a smile, glanced at the package, and whispered to Qin Xiao: "Look at you thief, what's inside?" Squatting down and reaching out to touch, Qin Xiao immediately shouted, "Don't move." ”
Mu Yeji was startled by his shout, and scolded: "What are you calling, I'm shocked." ”
Qin Xiao grabbed the package and said, "It's nothing, anyway, you just said that this was given to me by someone else, it has nothing to do with you, and you don't need to know what it is." ”
"If I don't figure out what's inside, how will I sleep tonight?" Mu Yeji sighed: "You don't know, your little aunt is the most curious, and if the puzzle is not solved, it is difficult to sleep." ”
Qin Xiao also knew very well in his heart that no matter how much he covered it up, it would be impossible for the little aunt to stop there, thinking that if she saw that this package was full of silver ingots, she didn't know if she would be evil and kill people and rob money.
"Let's make it clear first, this package is mine, I can show you what's inside, but I can only take a look, and the rest has nothing to do with you."
Mu Yeji smiled: "Don't worry, the little aunt is in good shape and character, and I promise that you will definitely agree to it." ”
Qin Xiao was helpless, so he opened the package, pursed his mouth, and motioned Mu Yeji to look at it himself, Mu Yeji leaned in to take a look, the pair of charming eyes full of mist instantly lit up, and he glanced up at Qin Xiao, his breathing became short, and his full chest rose and fell.
She couldn't help but stretch out her hand, Qin Xiao had already sealed the package, and said, "You have seen it all, you have to talk about it." ”
"I naturally mean what I say." The little aunt couldn't hide her excitement: "It's just that what did I promise you?" ”
"You're .....!" Qin Xiao suddenly thought that although the little aunt boasted that she would promise something, she didn't give herself a specific promise, and said angrily: "Then what do you want?" ”
Mu Yeji's beautiful eyes were like water, and her voice was sweet and abnormal: "Little nephew, look at my clothes, I've been wearing them for a long time, and I smell a ...... smell!" ”
Qin Xiao sneered, and said in his heart that it was not only stinky, but also sour and ugly, a good beauty, and she didn't know how to love clean.
"Also, look at my boots." Mu Yeji said quietly: "I won't tell you, I haven't changed my shoes for three years, I look dirty and broken on the outside, and it's even more miserable inside, if you don't believe it, I'll take it off and show you." ”
"It's my business." Qin Xiao suppressed his anger: "The dozen taels of silver you lost a few days ago are enough for you to buy ten sets of clothes and ten pairs of boots, you yourself are addicted to gambling, and you lose the silver, can you still blame others?" By the way, when I was leaving, I left you a few taels of silver, and even if you eat meat for the past two days, the silver should be enough for you to buy clothes. ”
Mu Yeji smiled bitterly: "You haven't come back for three days, I'm worried that something will happen to you, you're in a bad mood, and you'll borrow wine to kill your sorrows, and the silver has been spent on hops." ”
Qin Xiao's eyes widened, staring at Mu Yeji, at this time, he only felt that the beautiful face in front of him that was seducing all beings was hateful.
"What do you think I'm doing like that?" Mu Yeji raised her hand to cover her face, and said shyly: "Lonely men and widows are in the same room, you stare at others like this, people will be embarrassed, you don't want to do anything to me, right?" ”
Her shy appearance is really charming and charming.
Qin Xiao naturally wouldn't be tempted by her illusion, so he held back the anger in his heart and said calmly: "Little Senior Aunt, how about I give you a suggestion?" ”
"The little nephew's suggestion must be very pertinent, I'll listen to what you say."
"I know it's hard for you to get married in your life." Qin Xiao said very sincerely: "If there is really a man who is blind in the future and sees that you want to marry you, I hope you can spare his life for the sake of being blind, and never marry him." ”
Mu Yeji was suddenly a little unhappy, and said: "The dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth, and he doesn't need the old lady's national color and fragrance, just rely on a pair of chests, which is enough to make the men of the world surrender to their feet, and only you, a lonely and incompetent junior, are blind, and I don't know what is a good thing." But there was still something strange in his heart, and he asked, "Why don't you let me marry?" Can't bear me? ”
Qin Xiao sneered and said, "I'm worried that if you really want to marry him, even if his family has tens of millions, it won't be long before he will be impoverished and left on the streets by you, a loser." Thinking that his hard-earned silver was easily wasted by this girl, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became: "Two times combined, I gave you almost twenty taels of silver, you know that my salary is only twenty taels a year, but you are penniless in a few days, I ...... The more you don't get angry if I say something, if I were your man, I would find a place to bury you in three days. ”
"Don't worry, you won't have a chance to marry me in your life, I'm a woman you will never get, so you have a spring dream." Mu Yeji smiled charmingly, glanced at the package, and said: "Don't talk nonsense, the rules of the rivers and lakes, those who see it have a share, let's discuss how to divide this silver." ”
"Dream your big spring and autumn dreams." Qin Xiao took a sip: "The origin of this silver is unknown, I will hand it over to the Governor's Mansion, and then let people investigate, one or two pieces of silver can't be used." ”
Mu Yeji smiled like a flower: "Yo, what you said is serious, you can hand it in and try it." The third watch sent the silver in the middle of the night, which only proved that the man didn't want to be known, otherwise he could have come during the day. This large sum of money could never have been sent by mistake. Twisting his waist and walking to the package, he squatted down, like stroking his most beloved lover, and gently stroked the package: "You are right about the wrong way to come from this silver, think about it yourself, why would others give you silver?" Did you help him do something unseemly? If you let the government investigate the truth, maybe you will find out all the things you don't see. ”
Qin Xiao's heart sank.
What Mu Yeji said was not wrong, this money came too suddenly, and it was too weird.
A thousand taels of silver, and a complete silver ingot, this is not something that ordinary people can take.
He instantly thought of Wen Budao in his heart.
If you have the ability to come up with such a sum of money, and give it generously to yourself, you can only think about it.
When Wen Budao was in the Jiazi prison, he took care of him, and then even risked his life to save him from Qiao Leshan, which in Wen Budao's eyes, of course, his little jailer was a good brother of Yi Bo Yuntian, he had hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in his hand, although it was delivered to the Death Wing of Huangxi, but he took out a thousand taels of silver from it to repay, which was naturally a trivial matter.
Other than that, Qin Xiao couldn't think of anyone who would be so generous.
If this money really has to be handed over, Han Yunong will naturally ask for details, does he want to tell Wen Budao's true identity? Maybe there will be more trouble then.
It is true that the silver cannot be handed over, but accepting the silver with peace of mind, Qin Xiao only feels that it is very inappropriate.
However, if you want to return the silver to Wen Budao, it will not be possible for a while.
Wen Budao had already followed the Death Wing of the Wild West back, where he was going, Qin Xiao didn't know anything, after all, the Death Wing of the Wild West was wanted all over Xiling, but no one could provide their clues, so it was so difficult to find them.
And even if you really find it, with your gentle character, there is absolutely no reason to take it back.
Qin Xiao was thinking to himself, he felt that his eyes were shaking, and when he came back to his senses, he found that it was the little aunt who was shaking in front of his eyes with her hand, and said angrily: "What are you doing?" ”
"Got it?" Mu Yeji's voice became extremely gentle: "Little nephew, are you hungry?" I'll give you something to eat? ”
Qin Xiao was stunned, will this girl take the initiative to cook? But he immediately understood that he was currying favor with himself for the sake of silver.
Sword Valley has a precept not to rob other people's things, at least Mu Yeji is really abiding by this precept for now, and with this precept, things will be much easier.
"I don't need to." Qin Xiao said: "I'll get it myself when I'm hungry." ”
"Do you want to wash it?" Mu Yeji was very considerate and said: "It's been out for a few days, it must be very hard, you don't have a daughter-in-law, my little aunt is kind, help you wash, if you feel uncomfortable, I can also help you press, my craftsmanship is very good, of course, that's limited to this, if you want to do other things, that's impossible, I'm not a casual woman." ”
Qin Xiao smiled bitterly and said, "Little Senior Aunt, what else can't you do for the silver?" ”
"Not much." Mu Yeji smiled all over her face: "You agreed to divide the silver?" ”
Qin Xiao thought for a while, but Mu Yeji was very surprised and said: "The silver, I can give you a little, but you have to do one thing, otherwise you won't be able to get one or two of these silver." ”
Mu Yeji blinked, hugged her chest, lowered her head and said softly: "Let's talk about it first, I don't sell my body, it's no problem for you to let me dance and sing for you, even ...... You can even touch it, I'll just bear with it, but other than that, you must not get an inch, if you agree, let's go into the room now. ”
"Touch you big-headed ghost." Qin Xiao said angrily: "Who do you think of me? He looked Mu Yeji up and down a few times in disgust, "Even if I touch myself, I don't want to touch you, little aunt, can you clean your brain, don't be so dirty, I'm still so young, don't take me badly." ”
Mu Yeji snorted coldly and said, "It's smart, I'm testing you, if you really have bad intentions towards me, I'll slap you to death with one palm." I have a bottom line, if you take advantage of me, although I will die. Then he immediately smiled and said: "Little nephew, whether to kill or set fire, if you say a word, I will do it immediately." ”
