C85 (1/2)

When Liu Yuyan came over, Jin Xiaofeng was sitting in the courtyard with her legs spread wide, her tears and snot flowing everywhere.

The constable sat with his hands on his hips, looking at the woman on the ground helplessly.

When Tan Sihai saw Liu Yuyan, he immediately begged him with her face, ”Mother, I heard from Xiao Feng that she has given all her silver to you. Quickly give three hundred taels to this constable!”

Hearing that, Liu Yuyan frowned: ”I do not have money, you guys can drag him into the army.”

Tan Sihai was startled and quickly replied, ”How could that be? Xiao Feng told me before that the money she earned from selling the cans would be given to you the moment she got home!”

Jin Xiaofeng was also stunned as she sobbed, ”Mother, what's wrong, why don't you admit it? Last time I sold the can for one hundred and fifty taels, plus Jin Xiaolou's three hundred taels, it was four hundred and fifty taels!”

Liu Yuyan only knew how to accept money and never spit it out.

Moreover, this Jin Xiaofeng was already married, and she didn't have a son nor had she snatched Jin Xiaolou's son away. She only relied on the last bit of silver, how could she hand it over so easily?

Liu Yuyan didn't mind that Tan Sihai was right in front of her, and immediately said: ”Xiao Feng, didn't you say you don't want to marry this man? Wouldn't it be better if I used three hundred silver to find a good home in your Xin Ning? Why would I save him? You want to spend your entire life squatting in this Wellhead Village as a village woman? ”

Jin Xiaofeng immediately stopped crying, with her eyes wide open, she raised her head and looked at her mother.

Tan Sihai's face suddenly turned pale white, and his entire body withered away like a kite with its string cut. After being stunned for a moment, he turned his head and stared straight at Jin Xiaofeng.

Jin Xiaofeng wiped the tears off her face, her gaze sweeping across Tan Sihai as she slowly opened her mouth and said to the two officers: ”Silver … ”No, you guys can catch him.”

Tan Sihai's expression was never so desolate or desperate. It was only when the two policemen quickly lifted him up did he retract his gaze from Jin Xiaofeng and struggle to shout out loud: ”He's the one who deceived your old master with the money. He's the one who coaxed He Zhi Prefecture. Why not take her to the barracks! ”

”If you want to blame something, blame yourself for marrying this woman!” The constable dragged Tan Sihai out the door.

It was not easy to find a strong man these days. In a war, men were lacking everywhere.

That was why He Zhixian thought that if he didn't pay the silver, he would use a man to pay his debt.

The constable shook his head, ”I would like to capture a woman, but what can a woman do in the army camp? Are you willing to let your woman go? ”

what a woman can do in a camp... Jin Xiaofeng's entire body shivered, she could only think of the word military courtesan.

”Such a vicious heart, you actually …” They actually had to capture me! ” Jin Xiaofeng clenched her fists, ”It looks like I was right not to take the silver to save you! A person like you is not worth my help! ”

Tan Sihai shook his head and laughed coldly, ”Jin Xiaofeng, remember what you said today. Don't think that if I, Tan Sihai, enter the army camp, I will die.

was still seated in the middle of the courtyard even after the two constables had left with him.

”Xiao Feng, why are you making a ruckus outside? What happened to Hai'er? ” Inside the house, the Madame Xu that was lying on the bed heard the commotion outside and became anxious, ”Quickly go into the forest and call Hai'er's father back. He has an idea, don't let him get our Hai'er! I only have this one son! ”

”Why are you still sitting on the ground? Wait until Hunter Tan comes back with a machete to chop you into pieces? ” Liu Yuyan ignored the people in the room, ”Quickly pack up your things and go find the Xiaotao. Didn't you give her the indenture contract? ”You really have foresight!”

Jin Xiaofeng trembled slightly: ”B-but …”

Liu Yuyan rolled her eyes at her: ”So what if you're He Zhixian, he has already punished you. When you get to He Clan, you should learn to be smarter yourself and not anger the masters.

Jin Xiaofeng crawled up, and patted off the dust on her butt, ”Then … ”Then the silver …”

”I'm your mother! How could I harm you? ” Liu Yuyan poked her forehead, ”I hid Jin Xiaolou's share from your grandmother as per our promise, I will keep it for you. Don't worry, I will keep the silver with me, it won't be lacking, if you can find a good family, it will all be your dowry.”

The carriage escorting Gui Qi was the city that had entered overnight.

Outside the window, the rain was pouring heavily. The walls of Xin Ning were made of a large amount of bluestone, and they were so dark that it was hard to breathe.

At midnight, the time to close the gates of the city had passed.

Jin Xiaolou was stopped outside the city.

She had nowhere else to go, so she rubbed her hands together and leaned against the wall, standing and waiting for dawn.
