As soon as Mrs. Wang arrived at the door of Lin Yuxi's house, she saw dark clouds rolling in the sky.
Seeing that it was going to rain heavily, I quickly quickened my pace and walked over.
Seeing the plainly dressed and clean Lin Yuxi opening the door to go out, he quickly pulled her into the house.
"Sister-in-law Wang? Are you coming to take shelter from the rain?"
"I still have work to do, just close the door for me when I leave."
After taking a look at the sky outside, he took out a homemade oil-paper umbrella from the corner and was about to go out.
Sister-in-law Wang pulled her back to the three-legged chair cushioned with stones and sat down.
Although the thatched house is simple, it does not leak.
This is the result of her usual maintenance.
Mrs. Wang glanced briefly, feeling very sorry for her in her heart.
But from now on, her life will completely change.
"Yuxi, I'm here to be your matchmaker today. From now on, you can completely part ways with this hard life."
Lin Yuxi's beautiful face was full of confusion.
Her beautiful eyes were full of doubts.
With slightly rough jade hands, he smoothed the hair beside his ears.
He looked at Mrs. Wang calmly.
"Auntie, please stop making fun of me. I know my situation."
"I'm carrying a debt of tens of thousands of Xuanjing. Whoever marries me will be causing trouble for himself."
"If you have so much money, it won't be difficult to find someone better than me."
Having said this, I couldn't help but sigh slightly.
A bitter smile appeared on his face.
"To put it bluntly, as long as the other party is not out of his mind, he will not do such an irrational thing."
The patter of rain outside fell, falling on the thatched roof, forming a rain curtain along the thatch, and then sliding to the ground.
inside the house.
Mrs. Wang just looked at her with a smile until she finished speaking, then she took out a bag of Xuan Jing and put it on the table.
"If you have anything you want to ask, just ask me. Sister-in-law, you also know my character. If there is anything you can't accept, just mention it."
Seeing this thing, my pupils couldn't help but shrink, and my body trembled subconsciously.
She quickly regained her composure and looked at Mrs. Wang seriously.
After hesitating for a moment, he asked.
"Does he want me to be a living sacrifice to him?"
Living sacrifices are similar to burials.
But a living sacrifice requires a living person to be nailed into a coffin and buried with the corpse.
Generally, people who don’t want to die in peace will choose to be buried in this way.
It is said that after the death of the living sacrifice, the soul will continue to be abused and vented by the spirit of the deceased.
Until his resentment dissipates.
Normally, no one wants to be a living sacrifice.
But don’t rule out those who are desperate.
Mrs. Wang smiled and shook her head.
"Yuxi, what are you thinking about? Brother Jiang looks a bit old. But he is a handsome old man. Especially in that aspect, your sister-in-law and I have been craving for him for a long time."
“I just couldn’t find the opportunity.”
Hearing what she said, Lin Yuxi roughly understood the situation.
The other party is an elderly man.
Being able to spend so much money for her must be worth a lot of money.
Knowing this was enough for her.
As for the rest, it doesn't matter.
Nod slightly.
"Sister-in-law Wang, I agree to this marriage."
It's really surprising that he agreed so readily.
Originally she thought it would take more saliva.
It saves a lot of things now.
He casually took out another thousand mysterious crystals.
"Here, this is the betrothal gift. Keep it well. Don't let your useless brother see it."
Sister-in-law Wang has no intention of making this money.
This child Lin Yuxi is suffering too much.
She was always watching.
This time he could help her resolve the marriage, and she was happy for her.
From now on we all became neighbors.
You can also move around more.
Seeing her take out another thousand mysterious crystals, Lin Yuxi smiled bitterly and shook her head.
"Sister-in-law, this noble man has already helped me pay off my debt of 10,000 Xuanjing. How can I still accept his betrothal gift?"
"How can I behave like this?"
Sister-in-law Wang glared.
"What nonsense are you talking about? This is a rule and a process. If you miss this step, then you are nothing. Are you selling yourself as a commodity?"
"Brother Jiang must know this. Then should I continue to work in this industry?"
"Be obedient, you must accept the betrothal gift. If you feel sorry for me, just stay with Brother Jiang these few years."
"He is quite lonely alone."
Hear her say that.
Lin Yuxi didn't show any pretense and nodded to accept it.
However, he took out five hundred Xuanjing from it and handed it to her solemnly.
"Sister-in-law, this part of you cannot be missing. I am not a fledgling little girl. It's not that easy for you to fool me."
Mrs. Wang rolled her eyes at her.
"You are the only one who is smart."
"Keep it well and treat it as a congratulatory gift from your sister-in-law."
"Take care of yourself tomorrow. I'll take you there in two days."
"Yes. I listen to my sister-in-law."
The rain outside comes and goes quickly.
In just a few minutes, the crimson sunset appeared again.
If we couldn't still see the wet bluestone ground, who would have believed that there had been a brief drizzle just now.
Mrs. Wang settled the matter with her and didn't stay any longer.
It was getting late, and the useless old things at home were still waiting for her to take care of them.
Don't look at the domineering and arrogant words she said when she left.
In fact, the relationship between the two is very good.
The usual way he treats Jiang Chuan is to tease him.
He opened the courtyard door, signaled her not to send him off, and left in a hurry.
Lin Yuxi stood at the door, watching her leave, and she seemed to feel a lot more relaxed.
The boulder pressing on her body was finally about to fall to the ground, and she was still a little confused for a moment.
Originally, her goal in life was to pay off her debts.
But the debt can be paid off immediately, and suddenly it seems that the whole life has lost its meaning.
Shake his head slightly.
She wanted to spend the rest of her life taking good care of the benefactor who brought her all this.
Thinking of this, no more hesitation.
Taking the bag of Xuan Jing, he quickly went out.
But she couldn't let her brother see this thing, otherwise she didn't dare to think about what the consequences would be.
Now she has to pay off this debt as soon as possible.
Fortune Gambling House.
A young man with a mustache went out cursing.
I'm a bit unlucky today.
I lost all my living expenses again.
I had no choice but to go to my sister for some more.
But as soon as he went out, a stranger patted his shoulder behind him.
He was impatient, but now that he was stopped, his anger suddenly emerged.
But when he looked back, the displeasure on his face suddenly disappeared and turned into a flattering expression.
"Master Zhao? Do you have anything to do with me?"
The tall, bald, middle-aged man in front of me is Zhao Youcai, the owner of the Fortune Gambling House.
He had been living in Gusu County for decades, and he was very prosperous in this area, and he knew many people from all walks of life.
He also knew the boy in front of him very well.
Especially his beautiful sister, he already has an idea.
Seeing him like this, there was a look of impatience on his face.
"Xiao Linzi, you owe me a lot of money here. When are you going to pay it back?"
When Lin Pingzhi heard this, he couldn't help but look embarrassed on his face.
However, this was not the first time he encountered this kind of thing, so he naturally knew how to deal with it.
"Master Zhao, don't worry. I'll go back to my sister to ask for money. I can pay off this debt soon."
"That's right. It's not that I look down on you. But you have to know that my patience is limited."
"If you don't pay back the money, you will have to use your sister to offset the debt."
Lin Pingzhi cursed in his heart, but who made him owe two hundred Xuanjing.
Now I can only hold my nose and admit defeat.
"Don't worry, I understand the rules. I'll go back and figure out a way."
Looking at his back as he hurriedly left, a cold smile appeared on Zhao Youcai's face.
