Chapter 264: The Problem of Silver
But I didn't want the girl to really nod, as if she didn't mind the indifferent attitude of the tribulation, and said excitedly: "Yes! Could it be that the two of you also know that son? ”
Xue'er's heart moved, and she suddenly thought of Murong Yuan's move to invite her to Xicheng today, and finally said that she would let her help, and also said that he had taken a fancy to a woman from a humble background......
However, if what the woman in front of him said was true, then Murong Yuan didn't even tell anyone his identity and name! Where does this admiration begin?
He was thinking about it, but he heard Lizheng speak again: "That person, did you tell you his name?" ”
The girl shook her head lightly: "That boy is richly dressed, and he looks like a lot of ordinary people, how can he tell the little woman her name?" It's just a kindness from the bottom of my heart, watching the little woman sell tea and fruit snacks in the teahouse every day, and she is kind enough to help. ”
Xue'er was thoughtful, and finally couldn't help asking: "Your home is in Xicheng, or do you often sell tea and fruit snacks in Hongyun Building in Xicheng?" ”
The girl nodded vigorously: "Yes, the little girl often sells some tea and fruit snacks in the Hongyun Building in the west of the city, and the shopkeeper there is very good-hearted and willing to let me in." Somewhere else......"
She paused, did not continue, her expression was gloomy for a moment, and finally suddenly raised her head and looked at Xue'er with a look of hope: "Girl, how do you know, do you really know that son?" ”
Without waiting for Xue'er to answer, Li Zheng asked again, "You really don't know the name of the person who helped you?" ”
After receiving the girl's confirmation again, Li's brows finally furrowed deeply, and there was a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Xue'er's heart also rose with three doubts, and when she was about to open her mouth to continue asking, Aunt Hong over there had already finished reprimanding the two big men and two girls, and was walking towards Xue'er with a fierce attitude!
At the beginning, she was in a hurry, so angry that she didn't look at Xue'er carefully until this time, and the more she looked at it, the more familiar she felt, and finally she simply stopped, and saw Xue'er from head to toe, and from foot to head, blinked, and once again fell a lot of incense powder from her face.
As an old bustard in a green building, it can be said that he has read countless people, so just by looking at Aunt Hong, she can see that the identities of the pair of men and women in front of her are not ordinary.
Although there is also a big backer behind Wangchun Tower, the experience of years of experience has made Aunt Hong develop a cautious temperament, not to mention that Xue'er really feels familiar!
But for a while, she couldn't think of where she had seen it, which made Aunt Hong's heart more and more bottomless, and finally rolled her eyes and squeezed out a smile: "Where has this girl seen this, why does the slave family look a little familiar?" ”
She doesn't call herself "old lady" anymore, and even her tone is much gentler: "If the girl has some relationship with the forces behind my Wangchun Tower, you might as well say it bluntly." In case a big flood washes the Dragon King Temple, it won't be beautiful......"
As she spoke, Aunt Hong was still looking up and down, her eyes flickering, as if as long as Xue'er dealt with the slightest flaw, she could directly rob people!
Xue'er only felt that the gaze gradually began to be ill-intentioned, and she couldn't help frowning, and was thinking about how to speak, when the tribulation on the side had already stepped forward, blocking Aunt Hong's gaze, and said coldly: "Who is the force behind you, we are not interested." It's just that I advise you, don't fight the idea that you shouldn't fight! ”
Aunt Hong noticed the tribulation, the long silver hair was really eye-catching, she was stunned, as if she had thought of something, but she couldn't believe it: "You...... You ......"
Looking at the tribulation and Xue'er, I felt that these two people became more and more familiar, and I couldn't help but open my mouth wide: "You are ......"
On that day, Xue'er and Lizheng entered Lotus City, and it was not only those civil and military officials who greeted and watched at the city gate! Murong Ding was deliberate again, and he never forbade the people to watch, so it could almost be said that there were thousands of empty alleys at that time!
Although Aunt Hong was not very interested, because almost all the people in the city ran to the city gate, few people came to Wangchun Tower, and the business was a lot colder.
So she gritted her teeth ruthlessly, and like everyone else, she closed for a day and ran to the city gate to see the excitement. It's a pity that because of the late arrival and the crowding, in the end, I only remember one of them, and the silver hair is very conspicuous.
Therefore, when Aunt Hong saw Xue'er at this time, she was just surprised by her peerless beauty, but when she saw the silver hair of the tribulation, she "chuckled" in her heart.
However, after returning from the city gate, she did learn from the old bustard of the Zhaohua Pavilion next door that the "Holy Mother of Amaterasu" ushered in by the emperor was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, with a peerless appearance, graceful and beautiful, as if she did not belong to this world at all.
At that time, she still scoffed, thinking that the other party was rare and strange, but now when she saw the girl in front of her, she couldn't help but think about the aspect of Amaterasu!
Therefore, the heart became more and more suspicious, and his attitude towards Xue'er and the tribulation became more and more polite!
Aunt Bustard's psychological changes, Xue'er naturally doesn't know. After listening to the girl, there was only one thought left in Xue'er's heart, that is, she couldn't watch the other party fall into the fire pit from now on, and there would be no return!
As for whether the girl in front of her was Murong Yuan's favorite woman, she didn't know and didn't care. In other words, her attitude at this moment has nothing to do with Murong Yuan.
She couldn't do it, and watched an innocent girl being sold into the Qinglou! The sympathy in my heart flooded to the extreme, as if I could empathize.
Without looking at the words and eyes of the calamities around her, Xue'er's gaze directly shifted from the girl to the old bustard Aunt Hong opposite: "How much money did you spend on her?" ”
Aunt Hong was stunned for a moment, but then she reacted and began to count with her fingers: "Originally, a commodity like her is worth thirty taels of silver at most, but I am soft-hearted, and I also pity her brother who is seriously ill and his life is worried, so ...... Gave this number! ”
As she spoke, she stretched out a fat white hand, five fingers painted with bright red Kodan, and shook it in front of Xue'er's eyes.
"Fifty taels?" Cher asked, turning her gaze back to the Tribulation. Although she is not short of food and clothing now, Murong Ding is eager to mold her into a Buddha statue and offer her, and all aspects of her daily life are naturally quite rich. But in the hurry that followed Murong Yuan out this afternoon, he didn't think about the problem of bringing silver when he went shopping.
Li Zheng sighed softly, looked at Xue'er deeply, but his hand didn't move: "Girl, do you have to think clearly?" ”
Xue'er frowned, only feeling that she had never been verbose in the past tribulation: "Do you think this kind of thing still needs to be thought about?" Or are you accustomed to seeing death and not saving you? ”
These words were like a sharp thorn that stabbed towards the tribulation. His expression stiffened for a moment, and he was silent for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Girl, in fact, I didn't bring any silver......
Xue'er's brows furrowed even tighter: "Just because of this, you refuse to save people?" ”
"I-" Li Zheng suddenly felt that he couldn't speak clearly, how deeply prejudiced this girl was against herself, and she would think like this!
But then again, such a scene like the past reappearing, I really shouldn't stop her again. It's just that...... Why does he always have an indescribable uneasiness in his heart, and he can always smell the smell of conspiracy?
But why doesn't she understand such thoughts?
Aunt Hong looked at the tribulation, and then at Xue'er, she couldn't help but pout in her heart, this pair of young men and women looked like people in their clothes, how could they be two poor bastards, and they didn't even have fifty taels of silver?
It can't be that he deliberately dressed up as the image of Amaterasu and the silver-haired man he saw at the city gate that day, and swaggered around, right?
Once such an idea comes out, Xue'er and Licao, in the eyes of Aunt Hong, have become more and more thinking about a pair of liars!
"Hey, hey!" When she spoke, Aunt Hong's voice was already a little sharp, with a thick disdain, "Although I said that I paid fifty taels of silver to buy this girl, I didn't say that I agreed to sell her for fifty taels of silver!" ”
She lowered her head, bowed her fingers again and began to count: "This girl is sixteen years old this year, and her appearance is about the same, after my Aunt Hong's means of training, it will definitely not be a problem to be popular, think about how much silver you can earn every month?" ”
Then she began to calculate how much silver a red girl would spend with wine, how much she would sing, and how many guests she would have in a month...... How much is it in a year. When you are older, how much you comb for the first time, and how many customers you take after that, you can't wait to peel off the skin and bones, every nail, every hair is counted!
Cher was dumbfounded, as if she had bought a hen, and as a result, people not only had to count the money for the hen, but also how many eggs the hen lays every month, how many chicks can hatch, and the chicks grow up and lay eggs...... Then the chickens lay eggs, the eggs hatch the chickens, endlessly!
"Four, seven, two, four, eight, three fifty-five, ninety-nine eighty-one......" Aunt Hong's ten fat white fingers flew like flying, and even had to bring out the afterimage like a master of the rivers and lakes, and finally raised her head and glared at Xue'er, "In this way, ten years should be four thousand five hundred and eighty-one taels of silver, and I won't count the fraction, so you can pay four thousand taels!" ”
As she spoke, she glanced at the two big men behind her, but she stretched out a palm towards Xue'er: "How about handing over money with one hand and handing over people with the other?" ”
After saying this, Aunt Hong looked back at the two women who came with her: "Xiao Tao, you and Xiao Xing will go back to the Spring Tower now, go and get this Lin Manrong's deed of sale, and by the way, call more people, and prepare to move the silver!" ”
One of the women answered, but winked at the other, who had not been named, before turning away.
Xue'er can understand no matter how stupid she is, the other party is fake when she goes to get the deed of sale, and it is true to find someone to deal with her!
Because the tribulation was by her side, she wasn't too worried about the other party's use of forceful means, but looking at the palm of the other party's palm facing up and stretching out to her, Xue'er was tingling her scalp for a while!
She doesn't have four thousand on her, just four taels, and she doesn't have four coins of silver, so what can she give to others?
And the two big men, after getting Aunt Hong's instructions, had already begun to move their steps to her sides again, but their eyes fell on Lin Manrong behind them at the same time!
Aunt Hong gradually approached, and the look in her eyes like a cat teasing a mouse was complete, and it really fell into Xue'er's eyes!
Xue'er suddenly realized that the other party had already decided that she had no silver on her, and once she couldn't take it out, it would be time to turn her face. And the person brought by the little peach who left also arrived, and the other party was overwhelming, and he said that he was unreasonable and surrounded himself with the catastrophe......
