Yuan Tianye, who has always been as calm as a mountain and light as a breeze, was angry, not only Yuan Shi, but even Tang Ningyuan was silent.

"Talk, why don't you speak? Dumb you? Yuan Tianye saw Lin Xiaozhu lowering his head, but his hands were twisting his sleeves into a ball, as if he was restraining himself, knowing that she was still unconvinced, he couldn't help but be even more angry, and shouted angrily.

Lin Xiaozhu raised his head, but he burst into tears: "In life, is it okay to just eat and dress warmly?" Childe has never lost his freedom, how can he know the value of freedom? Your life and death, your stay and going, are in the hands of others. Others call you alive, but you can't die if you want to; Others let you die, but you can't survive; Others want to give you to others as if you were an object, and you don't even have the right to resist. How can Childe know this kind of taste? ”

When Tang Ningyuan heard "give you to others as an item", there was an embarrassed look on his face.

Yuan Tianye was startled by her tears, but when he thought that this girl was bent on leaving himself and the villa, without a trace of nostalgia, he was so angry that he forced himself to turn his head, not looking at Lin Xiaozhu's tear-stained face, and hardened his heart: "How can I make you live and die, why don't I give you to others like an object?" You must speak with your conscience. According to you, I took you out of the mountain, but I took you wrong? Just like the bird today, shouldn't it be rescued and put in a cage, but let it freeze and starve to death in the mountains? ”

"I wonder if Childe has encountered a difficult time in his life? When you are in trouble, if someone gives you a meal and asks you to be his slave for the rest of your life as a reward, are you willing, can you be willing? It was the hungry bird that was rescued today. When it wakes up, it doesn't want to be locked in a cage and lose its freedom to fly. As a person with feelings and thoughts, Xiaozhu wants to pay a certain price and regain his freedom after a hard time, what's wrong? Comparing hearts to hearts, why is it so difficult for Childe to understand Xiaozhu's request? What's more, it's not that Gongzi just let Xiaozhu go for nothing; and the money for which he was redeemed does not ask for the original price. It is completely possible to include the cost of room and board during this period. Include the cost of taking Xiaozhu out of the mountain and letting Xiaozhu learn cooking. And Xiaozhu will also be grateful, and do his best to repay the child's help and care. ”

After speaking, he bowed down and choked up.

Yuan Tianye's eyes stared at Lin Xiaozhu deadly, and his face changed unpredictably. He was moved by his words; He gritted his teeth and resented. I don't want to confide in the word redemption. For a moment, I couldn't speak.

Since he talked about this, Lin Xiaozhu simply broke the kettle. Pick out the words, wipe the tears with his sleeve, and say: "Please also ask the son to say a price today, Xiaozhu will make money with his own ability." To repay the kindness of the child. After saving enough money, he asked Gongzi to allow Xiaozhu to redeem himself. ”

Yuan Tianye grinded his teeth: "If I say that you are worth twenty taels of silver." Do you want to get out of here now? ”

Lin Xiaozhu was stunned for a moment, raised his head, and looked at Yuan Tianye in disbelief. She bought it with two hundred and fifty yuan, and spent money and energy to cultivate her, although these twenty taels of silver, although it is a lot, it is not much. It's just that Yuan Tianye said this price, I'm afraid it's because she just has twenty taels on her, right? When he said that, was he really willing to let her go? Freedom came so quickly and so easily. She couldn't believe it.

Seeing that black grape-like eyes suddenly lit up, shining brightly, staring at himself without blinking. I'm afraid what I just said was just a joke. Yuan Tianye's heart felt like he had been stabbed by a needle, and he was in pain.

He sneered. said: "Look, when it comes to twenty taels, you look overjoyed, needless to say, you know that you want to leave here right away, right?" See, what you're thinking, right? Hmph, what else do you say to repay the favor and redeem yourself, it's all lying nonsense! But Lin Xiaozhu, don't think that the outside is heaven, and my villa is hell; Don't think that with your little cleverness, you can make a good life outside. I'm telling you, if I let you go today, you'll have to be caught and sold to a dirty place tomorrow. When the time comes, you will know what it means to be miserable, and life is better than death; What is called no freedom, that is where even death has become a luxury. If I let you go, I'll hurt you. You're still going to stay here for me, and you're not allowed to go anywhere. ”

It took a long time to go around and come back again. Where is Lin Xiaozhu willing to give up? Gritted his teeth and said: "Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky." If Xiaozhu wants to redeem himself, he will naturally be responsible for his fate. If I really fell to that point, God will kill me. It's Xiaozhu's own choice, and it has nothing to do with Childe. I only hope that Childe can allow Xiaozhu to redeem himself! ”

Do you want to get out of here even if you fall into the dust? Yuan Tianye was so angry that his face turned blue. Stared at Lin Xiaozhu, his eyes were about to burst into flames, and he sneered: "Okay, well, to put it mildly, I'm a wicked person; It is I, the wicked man, who have robbed you of your freedom and your happiness. Lin Xiaozhu, you want to redeem yourself, right? You want me to tell me a price, don't you? Well, I tell you, bring me five thousand taels of silver now, and I'll let you go at once!" ”

"Five thousand taels?" Lin Xiaozhu's eyes widened, "Why don't you rob" the habitual words of his previous life, and almost blurted out.

Nima, robbery! One tael of silver is a thousand yuan, and five thousand taels is two hundred and fifty yuan? That's not how the lion opens his mouth, right? Isn't it such a violent law to generate huge profits from human trafficking? Ya, you Yuan Tianye, the world's most ruthless person in ancient and modern times, Nima's must be you!

However, I watched the old man use a Buddha jumping over the wall recipe to sell it for five hundred taels of silver, which is five thousand taels...... It doesn't seem like something impossible to achieve. Besides, isn't there a jade plaque that the old man gave her? Even if you can't sell it, it's okay to use it to borrow some silver from the government, right?

After thinking about it like this, Lin Xiaozhu couldn't care about the counteroffer, and immediately said: "Five thousand taels of ransom silver, this is what you said personally, Gongzi." Now Xiaozhu doesn't have it, but Xiaozhu will save it slowly. When Xiaozhu has saved enough money, please don't forget what you said in person. He pointed to Tang Ningyuan and others, "There are cousins and Yuan Shi, Tang Wei, and Tang An to testify. Childe is a person of credibility, and a gentleman's words are difficult to chase. The redemption of five thousand taels is not allowed to be reversed. ”

"What?" Tang Ningyuan, Yuan Shi, Tang Wei and the others had not yet woken up from the shock of Yuan Tianye's sky-high price, and they were stunned by Lin Xiaozhu's impatient appearance. This is five thousand taels, not five hundred taels, not even five taels, is it necessary for Lin Xiaozhu to bite as if he has taken advantage of it?

Five thousand taels was the price that Yuan Tianye casually said in his anger, and the original intention was to scare Lin Xiaozhu so that she could dispel the idea of redeeming herself. At this time, seeing that she was afraid that he would regret it, she laughed angrily and responded: "Originally, I said that I would take five thousand taels now, and I would let you go immediately." As for what happens later, I'll talk about that later. But since you're so afraid that I'll go back on my word, then let's talk about it, five thousand taels of silver. When you save enough money, you can leave. From now on, they don't owe each other, and they don't have anything to do with each other. ”

"It's a deal!" Lin Xiaozhu's crisp words were loud.

Yuan Tianye stared at Lin Xiaozhu, and suddenly felt extremely uneasy in his heart. Just now, he thought that five thousand taels of silver was very scary, but when he saw Lin Xiaozhu like this, he felt bad. Although Yuan Er spent 500 taels to buy the old man's recipe at the beginning, it was a sky-high price; It is for the identity of the old man, the silver given for nothing; You can't learn from it. But this girl is very capable, no, she earned eighty taels at once today. It doesn't seem to be very difficult to get together five thousand taels.

What to do? What he had just said, he regretted it now.

However, think about it again, this girl will always live by his side in the future. How much reward she can get, how much money she can make, and in the long run, he doesn't believe that he can't control it. If you want to save up to 5,000 taels of silver, dream.

"There is no basis for speaking, can Childe write a note to Xiaozhu?" Lin Xiaozhu hung his head, lowered his eyebrows and pleasing his eyes, but what he said startled everyone. This girl dares to question the credibility of her master and ask her to sign and draw a pledge? Can you eat the gall of a leopard?

"You ......" Yuan Tianye stared at Lin Xiaozhu, his eyes as if he was going to eat people. He took a deep breath and snorted coldly: "My son has never broken his trust since he was a child. If you don't believe my words and want to write them down in black and white, then I might as well be a villain. Now, this son is unhappy and is going to increase the price. Thy ransom money......

"Don't don't, don't write anymore, I believe you are." Lin Xiaozhu was startled and hurriedly stopped his words.

Tang Ningyuan couldn't be silent at this time, and came out to be a peacemaker: "Cousin, since Xiaozhu knows that she is wrong, you can spare her this time." Five thousand taels, she didn't say anything, did she? So be it. ”

Yuan Tianye snorted, turned his face away, and stopped talking.

The purpose is achieved. Although the ransom price is a bit high, it finally has a price. Therefore, Lin Xiaozhu saw that Yuan Tianye's face was unhappy, and he didn't dare to stay there longer, for fear of making him unhappy again, and raising the price again. Tang Ning didn't dare to mention the sixty taels of silver that she owed, and it wasn't worth mentioning it today, hitting the muzzle of the gun. Immediately pretended to look at the sky, and said: "It's getting late, Childe is going to invite the first person to dinner today, Xiaozhu will not delay Childe's time, Xiaozhu said goodbye." Without waiting for Yuan Tianye to speak, he gave a salute and turned around and left.

Tonight, my cousin accompanied the six people who won the first place in the exam to eat, and Tang Ningyuan wanted to ask Lin Xiaozhu to accompany him to eat alone. At this time, his cousin's face was not good-looking, and he didn't dare to stop Lin Xiaozhu. Shaking his head, he dragged Yuan Tianye out of the warm pavilion, patted him on the shoulder, and said with sympathy on his face: "Cousin, it doesn't feel good to be disliked by your subordinates." Cousin, I have deep sympathy for you. ”
