Chapter 228: Something Bad Happens
Under the guidance of Shui Lan, Lin Mujie returned to the wooden house in the shortest time.
As soon as she went back, she didn't have time to rest, so she entered Tu Zhi's room, found that he was not there, and was wondering, and came to the kitchen again, and saw that dinner had been prepared inside, but no one had touched it.
Where did he go? Confused, she came to her room, and found the person she had been looking for, who was now asleep in her bed, and she walked over, covered him with a thin quilt, and tiptoed away.
As soon as she went out, she found Shui Lan sitting at the door, looking up at the sunset outside with only half of her face exposed, she asked, "Why didn't you go back?" In case Maoya comes back and doesn't see us, he'll be in a hurry. ”
He didn't look back, still looking at the sun outside, and replied: "Before I left, I had already left him a note, and he will come back when he sees it." ”
Oh, her face suddenly realized, it seems that he is more cautious in doing things.
Cata also returned before dark, and when she asked, she realized that he had not returned to the cave at all, but had gone straight to the wooden house.
When eating dinner, Tu Zhi woke up, he didn't ask her what she was doing when she went out, but Lin Mujie still told him everything clearly, she felt that she didn't need to hide these things from him.
The next day, Lin Mujie and the others woke up early, ready to set off for the Yuelao Temple, and returned all the silver that those people took out when they bought the red rope bracelet before.
Tu Zhi also wanted to follow, but was refused, she wanted him to rest well at home and not be too tired.
When the three of them went up the mountain, they found that many people had gathered on the mountain.
These people saw them coming empty-handed, and immediately became anxious, some began to gather together and whisper, and some dared to ask them directly where the money was.
"Miss Lin, where is the silver?"
"That's it, how do I see that you are empty-handed, should you be greedy for that money, come and tell us that you don't have any money."
It's this group of people again, they questioned themselves in every way at the beginning, and now they also came over to fan the flames, it seems that she can't just be a good person, she has to get a blacklist, some people don't care how much money they pay, she doesn't want to be a matchmaker for them, let them be singles for a lifetime.
was angry, but Lin Mujie still had a somewhat formulaic smile on her face.
"There is money, but I can't just say that he bought the red string bracelets of the three women, I have to give the money, and those who have bought it can't just say the amount of silver, I have to give him how much money, everything has to swear to God, if someone tells a lie to make black money, then there is a life to earn and no life to spend."
With that, she walked towards the teahouse, where she wanted to finish the work.
She remembered that Zhiqing had promised her that she would repair the teahouse, but wasn't he unable to take care of himself after being beaten that day, and she wanted to see if he had broken his promise.
When she came to the teahouse, she unexpectedly found that the teahouse had really been repaired, and the shopkeeper was still the original shopkeeper, not only that, but there was also a woman named Lili.
Seeing Lin Mujie come to the door, the shopkeeper was polite, he hunched his waist and welcomed Lin Mujie in, with obvious flattery on his blue nose and swollen face, he flattered and said: "Distinguished guest, please here." ”
"Pour us some tea and you can go about your business."
Then she whispered a few times beside Maoya, and Shui Lan went out with him, and they had to go and carry the silver.
As soon as the two of them left, Yin Lili came uninvited, she sat next to her, looked her up and down, and asked, "What about him, where did he go, will he come over later?" ”
"I shouldn't be able to come." Didn't he tell her that he couldn't appear in front of her for a while, and now it was only three or four days before he said this.
"yes, it's a pity, I thought I would see him again before I left here." Yin Lili held her chin in both hands and looked at the people gathered outside in distraction.
"Why didn't they come in?"
"Because I asked them to line up outside first, otherwise they would be too chaotic and they wouldn't be able to do anything."
"Do you hate us sisters?" She retracted her gaze and looked at Lin Mujie, who seemed to be distracted.
"I can't talk about hate, but I don't like it either." Although this was not their original intention, it did have a certain impact on her reputation and ruined her mood.
"Then I'll tell you I'm sorry." Get up, bow slightly to her, and then turn away.
"Our sister is leaving here, I may never see him again, if you see him, please help me tell him that I like him, whether he likes me or not." The voice grew farther and farther away, and she didn't look at her or answer her questions, but she nodded silently in her heart.
The hustle and bustle appeared when Maoya and Shui Lan appeared carrying a box, and when people saw this box, they had forgotten to keep in formation, and they all rushed over, for fear that they would be one step slower and they would not grab anything.
Lin Mujie stopped it on the side, but his ability was limited, and there were still many people who wanted to take advantage of the chaos, but fortunately, Maoya and Shui Lan were strong young guys, who temporarily blocked the attack of this part of the people.
But this is not the way to go, she thought for a moment, and said to the people who were standing on the side in a proper manner: "Stop these people quickly, or they will take advantage of the chaos to rob you of your money." ”
As soon as she said this, those who were still watching the play before immediately took action, and soon the situation was under control.
After they lined up again, Maoya and Shui Lan carried the box to Lin Mujie, she opened the box, and the silver in it was exposed, and the scene immediately remembered the sound of gasping for air, obviously they were all shocked by the silver in the box.
"Now you're going to come up one by one."
The first one to come up turned out to be the eldest lady that day, she saw Lin Mujie, and did not rush to hand over the red rope bracelet, but asked: "Miss Lin, I beg you to help me, my son is in his 20s this year, but he still hasn't married a daughter-in-law." ”
"Auntie, solve the matter in front of you now, and talk about other things later."
There were so many people lining up behind her, and if she delayed it like this, she might not be able to finish it when it got dark.
"Miss Lin, I know that I didn't have a good attitude towards you that day, I know you're angry with me, I apologize to you, okay." The eldest lady was about to kneel down as she spoke.
"As long as you can promise to marry my son a daughter-in-law, you are willing to let me do anything."
If she agreed, this matter will never be finished today, and someone will definitely follow suit, if she doesn't agree, someone will say that she is cold-blooded and ruthless, and she will not be willing to help after the eldest mother's kneeling.
She understands these things, and Shui Lan also understands them, so before her knees hit the ground, he immediately helped her up, and said with a smile: "Auntie, now I will return the silver you spent for nothing, after you take the silver, you have to leave, otherwise you will delay the big brothers, sisters, uncles and aunts in the row behind you." ”
As soon as Shui Lan said this, someone else spoke later.
"Yes, now is the time to take the silver, take the silver first, don't talk about other things, delay everyone's time." Originally, the people at the back of the queue were worried that the silver would not be enough when it was distributed to them, and she was anxious, but she was crying and grabbing the ground, wasting everyone's time.
One person spoke, and the others followed, although the eldest lady still didn't want to leave like this, but she couldn't stand people's words, so she had to leave step by step after taking the silver.
Who's next in line? Lin Mujie looked up and saw that it was actually the thin man who liked Yin Lili, her face immediately pulled down, she didn't bother to look at him, lowered her head and asked, "How much did it cost." ”
"I just wanted to ask, do you know where Lili went?"
"I ask again, how much did it cost?"
"It's not about money, I just want to ask ......"
It's not about money? That's good to say, before he finished speaking, she gestured to Shui Lan next to her, who dragged him by the arm and took him away from the place, worried that there would be a misunderstanding, he also deliberately said: "Since you don't want the money back, please leave, don't occupy a position to prevent them from getting their money back." ”
"No, I mean ......"
Shui Lan didn't bother to speak, so she kept staring at him until she scared him away.
After watching the thin man being taken away, Lin Mujie breathed a sigh of relief, looked back at the man in third place, and asked, "How much did it cost?" ”
The man didn't speak, laughed at her a few times, and then stretched out his ten fingers.
"Ten pieces of silver?"
"That's right, ten silver." The man standing in front of him said loudly in a loud voice.
It's not that she shows people by her appearance, but really the one in front of her, whether it is clothing or temperament, in short, in all aspects, it doesn't look like a person who can take out ten silver, out of prudence, she asked again: "Are you sure?" Remember correctly, right? ”
"No, absolutely not." The man's answer was categorical, with a bit of treachery on his face.
"Okay, you swear to the sky first, saying that if you lie and cheat the money, you will roll down the mountain when you go down the mountain later, this money is destined to cheat, and you will not spend it, do you dare?"
The man hesitated for a moment, until he saw the ten silver carts in her hand, all the hesitation in his eyes disappeared, he opened his eyes wide, stared at the ten taels of silver and swore an oath, and then took the silver and left happily.
Shui Lan looked at the direction he left, looked at Lin Mujie's eyes again, and found that she hooked her lips at him, he immediately understood what she meant, and followed.
The man who left happily with the silver in his hand didn't know that he had been targeted.
