Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress - Chapter 1878 Ning Huaixiu’s panic (6)
When the madam saw the thousand taels of silver that Li Sheng took out, her eyes flashed wildly. Although she showed a bit of greed, she didn’t take the banknote. She just laughed and said, “Where did Li Xiucai get rich?” Yes, I took out a thousand taels so easily. It’s really a three-day separation, I’m so impressed!”
Li Sheng said calmly: “Where I get rich has nothing to do with my mother. I just ask my mother to collect the money, return Yiyi’s deed of sale to me, and then call Yiyi out. I will take her away today!”
The bustard chuckled and said, “What’s the rush? Yiyi is not here right now. Even if you get the deed of sale, it will take a few days to get the person. “
“Not there? Where has she gone?”
When Li Sheng heard that Yiyi was not there, he felt anxious and stood up suddenly, his voice rising involuntarily.
The Madam smiled and said: “Hey, look at how anxious you are, your Yiyi is fine, but she has been taken care of by the housekeeper of Xiaoyao Villa these days, and she will be sent back to you years ago!”
As soon as he heard that his sweetheart was taken over by another man, he could think with his heels what those Liaodan people would do to his sweetheart. Li Sheng’s face showed a look of pain that was worse than constipation. He was so jealous that Said: “How could you let her be taken over by someone else? Don’t you know how perverted those Liaodan people are?”
The Madam clapped her hands and said, “Is Li Xiucai making fun of me? Our family eats, wears, and uses our daughter’s food, and we don’t let her receive guests. Could it be that we still treat her like a rich lady?” In purdah?”
Li Sheng clenched his fist and said with difficulty: “Bring her back to me today. I will give you the exact amount of money Xiaoyao Villa paid you.”
“Oh, Li Xiucai has really become rich! His demeanor has changed when he speaks!”
The Madam waved the handkerchief in her hand, giggled, and after she finished laughing, she said seriously: “Li Xiucai, although we are from a wealthy family and are engaged in dishonorable flesh and blood business, we are also committed to credibility. Since we have We have made an agreement with Xiaoyao Villa to give Yiyi to them for a month. If we renege on it rashly, wouldn’t it mean that we will destroy our own brand? I won’t do such an uneconomical thing!”
Hearing this, Li Sheng understood what the Madam meant, gritted his teeth and said, “I’ll add thirty taels to their silver!”
The Madam sneered and said: “Li Xiucai, you also know how overbearing those Liaodan barbarians are. You asked me to help you get people out of their hands. If one of them accidentally offends them, I will lose my life.” That’s why I confessed that risking my life for thirty taels of silver is really not worth it.”
“Fifty taels.”
Li Sheng reluctantly added twenty taels. He didn’t have much money on hand. Except for the one thousand taels that his father-in-law and mother-in-law gave him on the day of the wedding, the rest was what he had earned in the past few months as a shopkeeper in the fur shop. He has already spent a lot on the road, and he can’t afford any more.
However, the madam snorted and said sarcastically: “Li Xiucai took only fifty taels of silver and wanted me to risk my life to help you get someone back. You value your fifty taels too much.” It’s two years old, but you still underestimate this old life. Let me tell you, you might as well wait for a few days. When you are twenty-nine, you will naturally send your sweetheart back, and there will be no shortage of it. A piece of meat, you can be as happy as you want in the past, it will be the same after it has been washed.”
” boom—-“
Li Sheng couldn’t listen any more, so he punched the table and said forbearingly: “Tell me, how much money do you need to help me bring her back?”
Hearing this, the bustard stretched out two fingers and said without hesitation: “Two hundred taels, not even a penny less!”
Although two hundred taels may not sound like much, it is really an astronomical figure for Li Sheng. He can no longer afford the two hundred taels. Even the fifty taels he promised before will have to be pawned. Only the big cloak can be put together.
However, when he thought of his sweetheart being ruined under Liao Dan Manzi’s body, his heart ached like blood.
The hand on his knee gradually touched the mandarin duck jade pendant hanging around his waist.
The jade pendant was a gift from the empress. He and his wife had one each. Although the jade pendant was not big, it was carved from the finest white jade. The craftsmanship of the famous craftsmen in the palace was unparalleled. Only such a small piece could be used. Worth one or two thousand pieces of silver.
At this time, he was in a dilemma. He wanted to use this jade pendant to redeem Yiyi, but he was also afraid of being punished for desecrating the Queen’s gift. As he was hesitating, the Madam had already seen the jade pendant in his hand, and his eyes suddenly lit up. He said with a smile: “For the sake of your deep love for Yiyi, I will give you a chance to use this jade pendant as a ransom. As long as Li Xiucai is willing, I will give up my life and fight to be defeated by those people.” The people of Liaodan are blaming her, and I will definitely bring your Yiyi back today so that you two can be reunited.”
Li Sheng was silent, stroking the crystal white jade pendant, hesitation evident on his face!
Looking at Li Sheng’s expression, the Madam knew that he was thinking about it, so she said with a smile: “It’s okay if Li Xiucai can’t bear to part with him. It’s just a pain for Yiyi to spend a few more days with those barbarians. Hey, this matter It would have been fine if she had been another sister, but Yiyi was fragile, and those barbarians were like wolves and tigers, and she also liked to play with a large group of people. There was a sister in Qingyifang who was tortured to death by my ex. She was tortured to death. Poor Yiyi is alone in Xiaoyao Villa. There are hundreds of Liaodan men in Xiaoyao Villa. Hey, that girl may be suffering what kind of crime!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the tendons on Li Sheng’s forehead popped out. He resolutely took off the jade pendant from his waist, handed it over with both hands, and said, “Mom, let’s stop talking. I don’t have any money right now, so I’ll put this jade pendant on for the time being.” I will pledge one thousand two hundred taels of silver to you, and I will redeem it after I go back and raise the silver. Now please move on and bring Yiyi back!”
The Madam took the jade pendant and looked it up to the sun. When she saw that the jade pendant was soft and smooth, it felt warm to the touch. It was the finest warm jade among mutton-fat jade. She immediately laughed so hard that she couldn’t even see her eyes. She kept saying, “That’s easy to say.” , it’s easy to say, you wait here for now, I will help you bring Yiyi back.”
After saying that, he told the bastard to go out and set up the car, then ran back upstairs to put on his clothes, and then headed in the direction of Xiaoyao Villa in high spirits.
In the teahouse opposite, Liu Xi looked at the Ningxiang Pavilion opposite with an expressionless face, turned to one of his attendants and said, “Go and find out what the man who just entered was doing inside? What did he do?” Find out what happened and report back to me without leaking anything!”
“yes!”
The attendant cupped his hands in response, turned around and went out.
Liu Xi shook her head and sighed: “Shen Juhua, Shen Juhua, it seems that you met someone unkind and married a real scumbag…”
