Chapter 405: The Landlord's Stupid Daughter
Bai Jiushu frowned, "When we enter the capital, how much money did my father give?" ”
Wan Qing: "Five hundred taels." ”
"That's it? That's too picky, isn't it? ”
"Miss, five hundred taels of silver is already a lot, and for poor families, five hundred taels is enough to spend a lifetime. As long as we don't eat big fish and meat every meal, and we don't spend money indiscriminately, we can still have two or three hundred taels left in the capital. Wan Qing said.
Thinking about it, he added, "The master doesn't pick the door!" The lord is usually very economical, and he is the most willing to the lady! All the money saved over the years has been given to the young lady! ”
Bai Jiushu frowned, "What does my father do?" ”
"The lord is the landlord of the village! Our Bai family is the richest in the village! ”
Wanqing said, a proud look on her face.
Bai Jiushu's mouth pumped, and the village ...... Landowner......
She is the stupid daughter of the landlord's family, it's simply.
She thought that her father was also a general in this life.
"You said that my father gave me all the silver he saved, he is a landlord, and he has saved five hundred taels over the years?"
How poor is that......
"Miss, five hundred taels is a lot! In the village, many families don't have rice to cook, and our family is rich in the village. ”
Bai Jiushu: ......
"Also, our family spends a lot of money every month, the eldest young master and the second lady have to study, and it costs money to study, and there are so many people in the family...... In short, it is not easy to save money. ”
Bai Jiushu: ......
sighed, "Forget it, five hundred taels is five hundred taels, enough to buy a carriage, bring the money, buy this carriage." ”
"Miss, although the master gave five hundred taels of silver, four hundred taels were stored in the eldest young master, and only one hundred taels were stored in the slave maid.
On the way, I had spent more than 20 taels on eating and staying in the hotel, and the slave and maid only had more than 70 taels of silver.
This carriage is a few dozen taels of silver, and it is old, so it will be a great loss to buy it. ”
Wanqing was very unhappy, it didn't cost a lot of money to rent a carriage, and it was too much of a loss to buy a carriage.
Bai Jiushu looked at Wanqing speechlessly, this was definitely the most calculating slave she had ever seen.
"Coachman, how much silver taels are you cashing in for this carriage?" Bai Jiushu asked.
"Aunt, girl, four, forty taels, just ......"
Bai Jiushu: "Wanqing, give money!" ”
"Miss, just this carriage, it's not good at all, how can it be worth forty taels? This is a robbery! ”
Bai Jiushu: "Give money!" ”
Wanqing pouted, unhappy, and looked at the coachman, "Your carriage is made of ordinary material, and the horse is worth a lot, and the horse is still an old horse, and if you buy it on the market, it will cost at most fifteen taels of silver, and the carriage will cost at most twenty taels."
You've been using the carriage for so long, I'll give you eighteen taels. ”
The coachman was about to cry, "My aunt, what is eighteen taels?" The cost is not enough! Besides, this is my guy who eats, and I don't want to sell it unless it's a special situation!
Although the horses are old, they still have the strength to pull four or five people, and the horses alone are worth twenty taels, and there are also carts......
I won't earn you anymore, just twenty-five taels, okay, if not, you can get off!
Take you out of the city, I didn't make any money, and my life was almost on the line, is it easy for me? ”
Wanqing thought that the coachman was involved by them and almost lost his life, it was really not easy, "Forget it, twenty-five taels is twenty-five taels, I suffered a loss, so I bought this carriage." ”
With a muttering mouth, he took out the silver and handed it to the coachman.
I always feel that I have suffered a loss, and I am still not very happy in my heart.
The coachman took the money, got out of the carriage, and fled for his life in a panic.
With a blank face, she looked at Bai Jiushu seriously, "Miss!" You can't live too well! The coachman asks for forty taels of silver, how can you accept it without bargaining?
Although we have money, we can't spend it blindly! With your big spend, no matter how rich you are, you will become poor! ”
Bai Jiushu was speechless, "You only have a few dozen taels of silver in your pocket, saying that you have money, don't you feel empty-hearted?" ”
"We already have money! A few dozen taels of silver is already a lot! Don't feel less! Wanqing shook her head and sighed, "Forget it, Miss was not smart in the past, and she didn't know money, I should understand you, anyway, I am in charge of money." ”
Bai Jiushu: ......
With such a little girl, shouldn't they all have to save money in the future?
It seems that she has to find a chance to enter the gambling house and earn some tickets, she has to live in the most luxurious shops, eat the best food, and ride in the softest carriage, and she can't live a hard life.
"Jing Yang, let's go! Go find my big brother! Bai Jiushu said.
"Drive!"
Jing Yang drove the carriage forward.
After driving for two hours, I finally arrived at the place where I was attacked by gangsters.
There was blood on the ground, a slashed cart, and no one was in sight.
"Miss, the young master is not here, should we get off the carriage and look around here?" Jing Yang asked.
"Hmm." Bai Jiushu got out of the carriage directly, observed the blood stains on the ground, and looked for it nearby.
Sensing a blood stain on the grass in the distance, he followed the blood stain and searched for it.
After passing through a forest, I found a path that could accommodate the carriage to pass, and on the path, there were not only traces of blood, but also traces of the wheels being crushed.
The wheel mark kept moving forward, and the blood was gone.
"Jing Yang, do you know what kind of place you are walking along this road?" Bai Jiushu asked.
"My subordinates haven't been here, I don't know, but this road should still be the boundary of Anqing County. The blood on this ground may not be the eldest young master's, if it is the blood of the eldest young master, it means that the eldest young master has been rescued, so don't worry. Jing Yang said.
Bai Jiushu pursed her lips, her eyes were heavy, if the eldest brother was not injured, or if the injury was not serious, he would definitely have gone to her a long time ago.
I didn't go to her, which means that the situation is not optimistic.
In the vast sea of people, there are only three of them, and it is really difficult to find people.
"Get the carriage over, and we'll follow the road and see where it is."
"Yes!"
“……”
Bai Jiushu and the three of them rode in a carriage and walked along the bloodstained path.
The trail is secluded and there are no people around.
I hurried until late at night, and I still didn't see anyone.
In the night, another man in black came, more than before.
There were no exceptions, but in a few moments, he was killed by Bai Jiushu.
Jing Yang and Wanqing didn't know how they were killed, they just thought things were weird.
After a night of traveling, I crossed two mountain roads, and finally saw a few scattered households.
I asked someone for directions, and they were indeed still in Anqing County and arrived in Xingwu Town.
After Xingwu Town, it is the boundary of Wenyang County.
As soon as Bai Jiushu arrived in Xingwu Town, she found a small shop to eat, and an arrow was shot into the leg of the table where they were eating.
There was a note on the arrow -
If you want your brother to live, within five hours, you will go to Pingyang Temple, Wenyang County, alone, and you will not wait for it.
Bai Jiushu frowned, her eyes were cold, she thought that her brother was rescued, but she didn't expect to be arrested.
