Sigh on a moonlit night, Hu does not return Chapter 461 Blackmail, despair follows like a shadow
Ye Yaoqin waited in the hut until the evening, and the men guarding outside didn't know where they had gone, leaving only a teenage boy.
The boy had built a bonfire in the courtyard, and baked a cold and dry biscuit, and two salted fish.
The aroma of salted fish is like a small hand, constantly inviting Ye Yaoqin.
Ye Yaoqin swallowed her saliva and came to the window, "Hey! She shouted.
The boy was intently roasting his dinner when he looked up at the sound.
Ye Yaoqin beckoned to the boy, trying to squeeze a kind smile on her face, "Come here." ”
"What's the matter?" The boy winked by the campfire, "Are you calling me?" ”
"Yes, you can do it." Ye Yaoqin greeted softly.
The boy came to the window, seemed a little shy, and looked at Ye Yaoqin embarrassedly wiping her hands on her clothes.
"Can you get me something to eat?" Ye Yaoqin asked cautiously, for fear that he would shake his head.
Unexpectedly, the boy nodded happily, "I have freshly baked cakes and salted fish here, do you want to eat it?" ”
A sentence of sister almost touched Ye Yaoqin's tears, not because she was kind, but because of her sincere desire for food.
The boy turned to the campfire and picked up the scones and salted fish, held them in his hands, and looked towards the window where Ye Yaoqin was.
The scent drilled into her nose vigorously, and she reached out to take it.
But the boy suddenly took a step back.
Ye Yaoqin's hand fell short.
What's going on?
She was stunned, was this deliberately teasing her?
"What's going on?" She nervously asked, "Don't you want to give them to me?" "It's been a day and a night since she's been locked up in this place.
"Does my sister want to eat?" The boy's face was innocent, as if he didn't know what the food meant to her.
"Of course." Ye Yaoqin swallowed another mouthful of saliva.
"Since my sister wants to eat, then I have to spend money to buy it, I gave you food, and I will be hungry at night." The boy said seriously.
"Okay, I'll pay......" Ye Yaoqin couldn't take care of it at this time, she touched her body, there was exactly one or two silver in her purse, she didn't have time to look at it carefully and handed it out, "Oh, here you go, you don't need to find a head for me, the remaining money is enough for you to buy a hundred salted fish." She quipped.
The boy took the money unhurriedly, but did not hand over the scones and salted fish.
"That's not enough." He frowned.
"What?" Ye Yaoqin's eyes widened, even in a restaurant in the city, one or two pieces of silver were enough to buy several pieces of scones and fish.
"No, that's not enough." The boy said seriously.
"How much is missing?" Ye Yaoqin forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart, in this case, you can't eat the loss in front of you, it's true to eat something first.
"There is still a gap of ninety-nine taels of silver."
Ye Yaoqin almost choked on her own saliva.
"What? What are you kidding! ”
I've never heard of a hundred taels of silver to buy a piece of scone and a piece of grilled salted fish, this is simply blackmail!
The boy pursed his lips and returned the one or two pieces of silver back to her, "Our master said that my things are definitely worth this price, and if my sister dislikes it, forget it." ”
"Your master......" Ye Yaoqin raised her eyes and scanned the surroundings, but she didn't find that there were other people in the courtyard, so she asked in a low voice, "Who is your master?" Do you know why they're keeping me here? ”
The boy tilted his head, looking cute, "How do I know, this is not my business, if my sister doesn't want to eat, then I will eat it myself." ”
With that, he retreated to the campfire and re-roasted his other salted fish.
Ye Yaoqin held the window with both hands, and watched the boy tear the meat on the salted fish with a big mouthful.
But a hundred taels of silver...... It's also too expensive.
"Hey, how about fifty taels?" Ye Yaoqin watched him eat half of the salted fish into his stomach and said hurriedly.
The boy shook his head, "The master said, one hundred taels, and one less copper plate will not work." ”
Ye Yaoqin angrily raised her foot to kick the wall, but instead kicked her foot painfully.
She looked back at the two boxes on the floor, which were side by side, and she still had so much money in her hand anyway...... A hundred taels less is nothing.
"Okay, then one hundred taels!" She gritted her teeth, took out a hundred taels of silver, and handed it out.
The boy jumped up with cheers, stepped forward to take the money, and gave the food to Ye Yaoqin.
Ye Yaoqin just got the food, and she didn't care about burning her tongue, so she stuffed it into her mouth in a big gulp.
A salted fish and a piece of scone were eaten by her in a blink of an eye, and there were no fish bones left.
The boy took the money, and with satisfaction ate the other half of the fish, and then lay down by the campfire.
After Ye Yaoqin had food in her stomach, she suddenly felt thirsty again.
The smell of salted fish came up and kept swirling in her throat.
Ye Yaoqin had no choice but to come to the window again, "Hey! She beckoned to the child again, "Is there any water?" ”
"Sister wants water?" The boy smiled.
For some reason, his smiling face made Ye Yaoqin couldn't help but shudder.
“…… It won't be ...... You have to pay for drinking water, right? She muttered quietly.
"That's right!" The boy obviously had a good ear and could hear what she was saying.
If he hadn't been locked up in the house, Ye Yaoqin would have wanted to pounce on him and beat him.
"It costs money to drink water, is this also what your master ordered!" She almost wanted to go crazy.
"Yes." The boy nodded, "One hundred taels of silver for a cup." ”
The corners of Ye Yaoqin's mouth twitched, "Then I want a pot of tea?" ”
"Five hundred taels of silver!"
Ye Yaoqin's eyes were cracked, "You guys are robbing money!" ”
The boy looked aggrieved, "Sister, the money box is in your house, and I didn't go in to get it, if you want to, give me the money, if you don't want to, forget it, why do you lose your temper...... Our master is more beautiful than you, and she never loses her temper, and she speaks kinder than you......"
Ye Yaoqin was almost knocked down in anger.
But after calming down, she finally realized her dangerous situation.
"What do you want to do with me!" She exclaimed.
"I don't want to do anything with you." The boy said, "If you just pay, you will have something to eat and water to drink." ”
"If so...... What if I don't have any money? Ye Yaoqin only felt a chill behind her, did these people want to starve themselves to death? She definitely didn't want to die here, and it was this horrible way of dying.
"Sister lies!" The boy retorted, "Our master said that you have more than 1,000 taels of silver in your box, as well as silver tickets and gold, silver and jade worth 5,000 taels of silver, how can you say that you have no money?" ”
Ye Yaoqin's body slid silently down the window to the ground.
She never expected that the other party would know everything about herself.
If one day, she spends all the money around her, then ...... Is she really going to starve to death?
