Chapter 56 is worth the price
The three brothers who captured Bai Qianfan, surnamed Niu, the people in the mountains are not particular about choosing names, according to the order, they are called Niu Er, Niu San, and Niu Four. Originally, there was a big cow, last year unveiled the official list, went up the mountain to fight the tiger, but the tiger did not succeed, but was eaten by the tiger, the official list was clearly written, if unfortunately suffered, the official family will have a certain compensation.
But when the Niu family came to the door to ask for it, the official refused to admit it, and in the end, they played a trick and asked the Niu family to show evidence that Niu Da was eaten by a tiger. The people are gone, how to prove it, can you find the tiger, open the belly to check, even if you really find the tiger, time has passed, and it has already become a bubble of feces.
Poor Niu everyone is left with orphans and widows, life is difficult, and the three younger brothers and the government theory are all beaten half to death.
The Niu brothers swallowed their anger, waited for the injury to recover, and in total, the good hunters didn't do it, they simply went up to the mountains to be bandits, robbed houses, and specialized in hitting the home of the official master. Bai Qianfan is the princess of Chu and the daughter of the prime minister of the dynasty, if she succeeds in this vote, they will make a name, are you afraid that you will not have any money in the future?
The three brothers were ambushed at the foot of the mountain, thinking that five thousand taels would have to be sent with a cart, as long as the target appeared, they would run away if they grabbed it, they were familiar with it in this mountain, it was easy to shake off the tail, take the money, let the people go, and things would be fine. But after waiting for a long time, from noon to the west, not to mention the cart, I didn't even see a shadow.
The three brothers had no choice but to go back in disgrace. Originally, they lived in Niujia Village at the foot of the mountain, but because they were determined to do great things, they were afraid of being discovered, so they simply built a house on the mountain and moved in. Coincidentally, there is a dark room nearby, just in the belly of the mountain, I don't know which dynasty and which generation mined it, and it is best to use it for Tibetans. If the officers and soldiers really came to them, the family hid in and fled through another exit, no matter how miraculous they were, they could not find it.
All the steps were well planned, and the result was nothing more than two, either pushing a cart to pick up people, or sending troops to arrest people. But I never expected that the letter was sent, but the other party didn't say anything.
This makes people a little anxious, they can't be sure what the other party means, and the Niu brothers don't know what to do next?
Back on the mountain, just after coming around the rocks, the three brothers were dumbfounded, and the little girl who had been caught was smiling, chasing and playing with the two little nephews, without the slightest panic or crying as they imagined.
When the cow widow saw the three little uncles coming back, she hurriedly greeted them and asked softly, "How is it?" No one is following. ”
"No, they didn't come at all." Niu Er said angrily, looking up at Bai Qianfan, "Why is she still playing with the big dog Ergou." ”
"She's still a child, so don't children like to play with them?" ”
Niu San interjected, "What child, she is the princess." ”
The cow widow was startled, she didn't expect the three uncles to catch a princess, her face turned white, and she spoke in a trembling voice: "Wang, princess, it's from the emperor's family, ouch, I said how bold you are, the princess dares to tie it up, hurry up and send it back, fortunately, we didn't treat her badly." ”
Niu Si's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and said with a big grin, "Sister-in-law is afraid, the second brother said, if you want to do it, you can do a big vote, as long as you are famous, you will not worry about no silver in the future." ”
The cow widow glanced at Bai Qianfan, and called her daughter in a loud voice, "Nizi, hurry up and pour water for the uncles," and asked the uncles to come into the house to talk as she spoke.
Bai Qianfan actually saw them, but the two little children behind her chased her so much that she couldn't stop, and in the end, she couldn't help it, she ran into the house with a smoke.
The Niu brothers were thinking about what to do next, and Bai Qianfan rushed in, and they were stunned for a moment, but immediately the two little nephews followed up and began to chase Bai Qianfan again.
The cow widow rebuked them a few times, and carried one in one hand and carried it outside.
Bai Qianfan took a breath at this time, found a stool to sit down, and asked, "Didn't you receive the money?" ”
Niu Er looked at her vigilantly, "Why are you asking this?" ”
Bai Qianfan flicked the dust on his robe, and said slowly, "I told my aunt first, and asked me to deliver the letter again, and the success of getting the money is greater." ”
Niu Er frowned and looked at her, "Why?" If you have too much money, will they not ransom you? ”
Bai Qianfan nodded, "That's right, it seems that you didn't do your homework before you tied me, I am Prime Minister Bai's daughter, married to the King of Chu, the King of Chu and my father are enemies, so naturally I don't care, if you want more, the Prince of Chu may not give it." ”
Niu Si stretched out his slap and came out, "We asked for five thousand taels, it's not too much." ”
Bai Qianfan's eyes rolled, for the King of Chu, five thousand taels is indeed not much, but whether he is willing to spend it on her or not, this is a bit difficult to say. She thinks that the prince of Chu is a good person, he stood up for her and took her shopping, she was tied up, he should come to the rescue, but the amount of silver should not be too high, because in his heart, she is not worth the price.
They didn't get the money today, thinking that she was not worth five thousand taels in the heart of the prince of Chu. After thinking about it, she said, "Maybe it's still too much, it's better to reduce it to five hundred taels, he doesn't feel distressed, maybe he will give it." ”
Niu San shouted: "Five hundred taels? It took a lot of effort to get you here, and it would cost you five hundred taels, and you wouldn't be worth anything! ”
Niu Er said, "No, at least two thousand taels." ”
Niu Si took out a hunting knife from his waist and slapped it on the table, glaring at Bai Qianfan: "If you don't give two thousand taels, we will tear up the ticket!" ”
He thought that with such a threat, the little girl would definitely tremble with fright, who knew that she glanced at him with a little disdain, "What is the purpose of your arrest of me?" Isn't it for money? Kill me, provoke a life lawsuit, You can't see the light of day for the rest of your life, you can only hide and hide, and you will be arrested when you go out, although the prince of Chu and my father do not deal with it, but if I die, they will definitely temporarily put aside their grievances, share the same hatred, and catch the murderer first. One is the current prime minister, and the other is the famous god of war. Do you think you'll be able to get out of the way? Even if it's not for yourself, there are aunts, Nizi, big dogs, and two dogs. ”
The three brothers of the Niu family lowered their heads, in their plan, there was no such thing as tearing up the ticket, taking the money to hand over the people, and buying and selling fairly, but why didn't the other party play the cards reasonably?
Niu Er hesitated, "Five hundred taels is a little less, can't you add more?" ”
Bai Qianfan shook his head solemnly, "I am worth this price in the heart of the prince of Chu, and he won't give it if there is more." ”
Niu Si didn't follow, "Second brother, it's too little, it's hard to do one vote, I want more." ”
Niu Er glared at him, "Five hundred taels is five hundred taels, it's better to have than nothing." ”
