Chapter 116: Find a way to redeem people
Xia Pozi listened to the words of those girls, she was really angry, and secretly scolded these little prodigal hooves in her heart for being shameless, but her face was not visible at all.
The old bustard was giving a lecture to a few girls, and when he saw that the turtle prince had brought someone here, he looked her up and down, "You want to find Liu Yan?" Who are you? ”
Mrs. Xia half-bent over, pretending to be timid, "Back to my mother's words, the old body is Fangrong's aunt, I heard that her mother was seriously ill a few days ago, so I hurriedly looked for her brother and my mother's brother, who would have thought that the old body had a disease on the road and was delayed for many days." ”
The old bustard hung his eyes and asked, "If this is the case, then how do you know that she is in our garden?" ”
Xia Pozi wiped her eyes and said with a crying voice: "The old man has always known what kind of virtue my brother is, and when he saw him going back alone, he kept asking him. He was asked so much that he said that Fangrong was sold to his mother by him. Ask your mother to let the old man see her. ”
The old bustard is not that hard-hearted person, and he shook the handkerchief and said: "Liu Yan has been a little uncomfortable in the past two days, and there is no way to pick up customers, so you can go and have a look." By the way, I also persuaded her not to be so dead-eyed, when she arrived in this kind of place, there was no other way than to accept her fate. ”
Xia Pozi did not answer this.
The old bustard asked Xia Pozi to lead to Qin Fangrong's door and knocked on the door.
The door opened quickly, Qin Fangrong looked at the person outside the door, and was about to ask who it was, but Mrs. Xia hugged her, crying in her heart, "Fangrong, you can call your aunt and I can find it." Do you know that Auntie, I'm worried about you these days! ”
Qin Fangrong was stunned for a few seconds, "Auntie? ”
Xia Pozi cried and said, "It's Auntie, it's me, I'm here to find you." My son, your uncle's conscienceless dog, I came with him to pick you up, and I never thought that he would sell you before I could take advantage of my illness and could not hurry. Fangrong, my aunt can't stand you, I can't help your mother, don't blame my aunt for being late. ”
Qin Fangrong was so crying by her, and she also cried, although she hadn't figured out where she had come out with an aunt.
The turtle man said impatiently: "Don't cry here, let the guests see it for a while, don't spoil the fun, hurry into the house." ”
Xia Pozi hurriedly hugged Qin Fangrong into the house, thanked the turtle fairly, and then closed the door.
"Miss Qin, don't be afraid, I was sent by my wife to redeem you."
Qin Fangrong looked dazed, "Your wife?" ”
Mrs. Xia whispered: "My wife used to sell fruits in the market, saying that she had a relationship with you, and yesterday she passed by this neighborhood and saw you here, and thought she was wrong, so she went to inquire near your house, and only guessed what happened after asking." My wife is kind-hearted and can't bear to see you fall here, so she asked the old man to come and redeem you. Remember, from now on, I am your aunt and your mother's sister. ”
Qin Fangrong was surprised and delighted in her heart, and kept nodding.
The two talked in the room for a while, and Mrs. Xia estimated that the time was almost up, so she got up and went out, found the old bustard, and said while wiping her tears: "Mom, I have already met my niece, thank you mother for taking care of her, so that she did not suffer." ”
The old bustard smiled and said: "If you sell it to my building, it will be my daughter, who will take care of her if I don't take care of her?" Don't worry, Liu Yan is here with me, and I will keep eating and drinking spicy food and wearing gold and silver in the future. ”
Xia Pozi sighed, "Mom is really good here, but my sister only has a daughter like her, and her relatives are far away, so she doesn't worry about her when she thinks about it." So the old body cheekily begged my mother to let me redeem her, her color is average, not as handsome as the other girls in this garden, and the temperament is wooden, I am afraid that it is difficult to learn the well-behaved and pleasing of other girls, staying here, but not much help to mother, so I also asked my mother to be kind and let her return to her hometown with the old body, and the old body will remember her mother's kindness for the rest of her life. ”
When the old bustard heard this, his eyes rolled a few times, "Although that girl's color is indeed average and her temperament is also boring, some guests really like her like this." ”
Xia Pozi's heart tightened, knowing that this old bustard was going to sit on the ground and raise the price, so she said: "Mom, the old sister has only such a daughter as her, and when she was alive, she didn't suffer less for this child, and asked her mother to show mercy and let her go home." Ask mom for mercy. ”
The old bustard lifted his eyelids, "Seeing that you feel so sorry for her, if I don't let her go, it will seem that I am not close to people." Well, there is no shortage of her in my garden, and since you are willing to redeem her, I have no reason to keep her and refuse to let her go. However, her ransom money is not cheap, and you know what kind of place this is, I bought her to make money. At the moment, she didn't answer any customers, and she spent a lot of money on me to adjust and teach, so ......"
Xia Pozi hurriedly said: "Mom, please tell me the number, the old man also has a bottom in his heart." ”
The old bustard stretched out three fingers and gestured, "Thirty taels." ”
Xia Pozi looked surprised: "So many? ”
The old bustard smiled and said: "It's not much, I spent ten taels of silver to buy her, and she has been here for so many days, I can't just let her go without earning a penny." ”
Xia Pozi knelt down with a plop, "Mom, it's okay, let's be cheaper, we can't afford so much silver." Pray mom to be okay, it's cheaper. ”
The bustard lifted his eyelids, "What are you doing here?" It's like I'm so unkind. Alas, so be it, twenty-five taels, if you can accept it, we will pay the money with one hand and the other hand. If you can't accept it, you shouldn't have mentioned it. ”
Su Qin waited in the small restaurant for almost an hour before he saw Mrs. Xia come out of the Wenxiang Pavilion.
Mrs. Xia made a special circle before returning to the small restaurant.
Su Qin poured her a glass of water and hurriedly asked, "Mother Xia, how is it, did they agree?" ”
Xia Pozi was very thirsty, and drank the water before saying: "The old slave and the old bustard have been going around for a long time, and finally the old bustard agreed to redeem Miss Qin at the price of twenty taels of silver. ”
As he spoke, he took out a piece of deed paper from his sleeve, "The old slave gave some deposit first according to what his wife said." ”
Su Qin took it and took a look, it was written very clearly on the deed paper, Qin Fangrong's redemption silver is twenty taels, and the deposit is five taels, from today Qin Fangrong will no longer see guests, and the remaining silver must be collected within three days, otherwise the deed paper will be invalid and the deposit will not be returned.
"It's good, let's leave it at that, and I'll come back in three days to get someone."
Xia Pozi asked, "Madam, why don't you ransom Miss Qin out now?" So that you don't have long nights and many dreams. ”
Su Qin said: "It's too eye-catching to redeem directly, but under the banner of outsiders, you take out twenty taels of silver to redeem yourself, and you will inevitably be targeted." ”
To save people, she didn't dare to carelessly put herself in.
