Chapter 275: Selling a Woman to Pay Off Debts
On the way back, Su Xiaoya met Kitano Xuan, who came to pick her up.
"What's going on? It's not that I don't know the way. Su Xiaoya was a little helpless, this Beiye Xuan was always afraid that he wouldn't do this or that, he was too worried.
Kitano Xuan walked to Su Xiaoya's side with a smile, but his hand gently hooked Su Xiaoya's fingers: "I'm a little tired of dealing with things in the study, so I just came to look for you and go back together." By the way, take a break. ”
It is clear that she is not worried about her own safety, if she has to say that it is for her own safety, Su Xiaoya only feels that Beiye Xuan is talking nonsense with her eyes open.
The two walked back slowly, but Su Xiaoya suddenly thought of her son Xiao Ayuan, who was only a little old and was taken by the medical saint to learn medical skills, Su Xiaoya really missed this son a little.
"Ahh
A scream broke the warmth between the two, Su Xiaoya and Kitano Xuan looked at each other, and the two hurriedly walked over to see that it was a fat man with a full face who was dragging a little girl in his hands.
The girl didn't seem to be able to speak, but her face turned red and she kept struggling, and her mouth screamed from time to time, but she didn't say anything.
"What a pitiful, good little girl, though she is mute, but there is nothing else inappropriate. was about to be sold by this unconscionable father. ”
"Well, what good will it end to be sold to this place? They are all gamblers, and it is estimated that this girl will be sold into the Qinglou as soon as she goes! ”
"What a sin! This father is really ruthless! ”
Su Xiaoya listened for a long time before she understood what was going on. It turned out that this meaty-faced man was a butcher who only wanted to mortgage his daughter to the dealer because he owed money to the casino.
Su Xiaoya looked frightened and said directly: "Wait! ”
The butcher looked at Su Xiaoya inexplicably: "What do you want to do?" This is my own daughter, I can do whatever I want, where did you come from, go back to where you came! ”
Su Xiaoya felt uncomfortable listening to it in her heart, but she still raised her hand to stop Beiye Xuan: "This is your daughter is good, but the money owed is your own doing, why do you want to sell your daughter?" What did she do wrong? ”
When the little girl heard that someone came to defend herself, she knelt on the ground gratefully, and kept begging Su Xiaoya: "Ah! Ahhhh......h
The little girl couldn't speak, so she kept kowtowing and pointing at herself, as if she wanted to say something.
Su Xiaoya was originally a soft-hearted person, and seeing this little girl so pitiful, she felt a little unbearable.
"What about my daughter? Now that Lao Tzu can't afford to pay back, can't he sell her?! The butcher's face was full of indifference, and he even wanted to drag the little girl up from the ground and continue walking.
The little girl immediately screamed, and her voice was so terrible that the people around her couldn't listen to it.
Su Xiaoya couldn't bear it in her heart, so she stepped forward and asked, "I don't know how much money you owe?" And what about the bookmaker? Isn't it here too? ”
If the dealer wasn't here, there would be no need for the butcher to drag the little girl here.
A man who had been watching the excitement next to him stood up: "No more, no less, exactly three hundred taels!" ”
Three hundred taels?!
"Oh my God, these three hundred taels are just enough to buy a restaurant and come back!"
"This butcher is so bold that he dares to owe so much money?! Doesn't he want to think that he can't afford to pay it back? ”
"Who knows if you still owe three hundred taels after paying off all the money in the family. These three hundred taels are enough for ordinary people to eat and drink normally for a lifetime! ”
"Don't say anything about eating and drinking normally, even if you take this money to do a small business and buy shares with others, the three hundred taels of silver will be returned immediately, how can you continue to be poor?!"
The butcher was a little embarrassed by the discussion of the people around him, pulled the little girl in his hand, and said to Su Xiaoya: "Hey! You woman, it's better not to mess with things that shouldn't be taken care of! Just mind your own business, don't meddle around! ”
Su Xiaoya thought about it, if she didn't save this little girl, she was afraid that this little girl would really be sold to those indiscriminate places.
"Three hundred taels of silver, is it? I'll give you three hundred taels, and you can give me this little girl. Su Xiaoya said to the dealer.
The dealer calculated in his heart, even if this mute girl was sold to that kind of place, it would be thirty or forty taels at most, and it would definitely not be more than three hundred taels. It's better to sell this mute girl directly to Su Xiaoya, and make up for the deficit in her gambling house.
"Okay, Madame is really refreshing, then let's pay the money with one hand and hand over the other." As he spoke, the dealer pulled the little girl out of the butcher's hand.
Su Xiaoya smiled, took out the three hundred taels of silver that was going to be made from her arms, and was about to hand it over to the banker, who knew that the butcher who was watching the excitement suddenly shouted.
"No, no, no, I won't sell my daughter. You gambling houses don't want me to use my daughter as collateral for my money! So saying, the butcher snatched the little girl back from the dealer's hand.
After snatching back the little girl, the butcher smiled at Su Xiaoya shamelessly: "Madam, I don't know if Madame still wants me as a girl?" If Madame wants it, then I will only need a hundred taels. ”
Su Xiaoya glanced at Beiye Xuan with a surprised face, only to see that Beiye Xuan also looked at Su Xiaoya with smiling eyes, and the two smiled tacitly.
"Okay, then a hundred taels." Saying that, Su Xiaoya took back the hand she had stretched out, and after taking a hundred taels from it and giving it to the butcher, she took the rest of the money into her arms.
The dealer looked at Su Xiaoya with resentful eyes, but the three hundred taels of silver that he was finally able to get flew away, what is the difference between this and a boiled duck? The dealer didn't want to mention how much he resented Su Xiaoya and the butcher in his heart.
Su Xiaoya felt funny in her heart, so she said directly: "Don't look at me with such eyes, it's not me who owes you money, it's this butcher brother." ”
The dealer immediately turned his head to look at the butcher, and the butcher, who was counting the money, came to his senses and looked at Su Xiaoya in a daze.
What stupid thing did he just do?! Obviously, his accounts can be written off, but he is stupid and wants to pinch the silver in his hand, now it's good, at the beginning he can be debt-free and light, and now he not only has to hand over the one hundred taels of silver that he just arrived, but now he has to paste two hundred taels in vain.
"No, no, no, ma'am, this kind lady, I ...... I'll sell my daughter, I'll sell my daughter, can you pay back the three hundred taels of silver for me?! The butcher was frightened and hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged Su Xiaoya.
Su Xiaoya pursed her lips disdainfully, this kind of person is just stupid in his brain, but he just wants to make huge profits from this unearned way.
The dealer saw that Su Xiaoya had no intention of saving the butcher, so he directly stepped forward and asked the butcher to be arrested: "You have to make up the money for me today!" You don't have any daughters to sell now, if you don't have them today...... Don't want your hands. ”
As he spoke, the dealer drew his knife and rubbed it on the butcher's wrist.
The butcher was frightened, and he couldn't wait to hide behind Su Xiaoya, but Su Xiaoya clearly didn't want to take care of this butcher anymore, let alone pay back the money for him.
"Daughter...... Daughter! I'm your father! I'm your dad! If it weren't for me, how could you have grown so big? Please, let this lady save me, please, good daughter! The butcher shouted, not at all disdainful of wanting to sell his daughter.
Su Xiaoya felt that this mute girl would not want to help this father, after all, this father wanted to sell herself just now. Unless this mute girl is really stupid, then Su Xiaoya will also reconsider whether her move to save this mute girl just now was right.
The mute woman thought about it, and finally pulled Su Xiaoya's sleeve, with some pleading in her eyes.
Su Xiaoya immediately lowered her face, snorted lightly and said, "I'm not a good person, and I won't have enough money to take out all of it to wipe your butts." You have to think about it, if I want to save your father, then you can go back with this dealer. ”
Su Xiaoya said, not raising her eyes to look at this mute girl from beginning to end.
The mute woman thought for a while, pulled Su Xiaoya's sleeve and pointed to a place next to her that sold paper, ink, pens, and inkstones.
Although Su Xiaoya was a little disappointed in this mute girl, she still followed the mute girl over.
I saw that the mute woman took a piece of paper, first drew a house on the paper, then a forest, and finally pointed to the butcher who was being pressed by the dealer.
Su Xiaoya didn't understand what this meant, and looked at the mute girl with a blank face, really not knowing what she wanted to do.
The shopkeeper looked at it and asked tentatively, "What......'s this?" Did the girl mean that the man had a house and a wood? ”
When Su Xiaoya heard this, she turned her head to look at the mute girl, only to see that the mute girl nodded hurriedly.
Su Xiaoya thought about it in her heart, in fact, she didn't have to care about this matter at all, but looking at the appearance of this mute girl...... Su Xiaoya couldn't bear it after all.
"Do you want to say, let me buy this house and the woods, and save your father?" Su Xiaoya asked helplessly.
The mute woman nodded hurriedly, anxiously pointed at the butcher and then pointed to her mouth, opened her mouth but found that she couldn't say anything, and finally squeezed out the word "want".
Su Xiaoya sighed, it seemed that she really didn't have the potential to be a cold-blooded animal, after all, as soon as she saw this mute woman's anxious face, she couldn't bear it.
"You've figured it out, I can save your father one last time, but that's just for me. In the future, if your father comes back, I will definitely not help him again. Su Xiaoya said.
