Chapter 77 It Shouldn't Be Like This
They just want to sleep in bed and eat now, and anyone who stops them is their enemy.
They looked at each other, as if they had reached some consensus, and rushed towards Xia Xing'er, shouting: "Let's fight her!"
The result was that Xia Xing'er used her internal energy to shock them all away.
He pulled out the whip from Zhang San's waist and whipped the person on the ground.
“Pah pah…”
"Ahhh... Make her stop!"
"Crazy, Xia Xing'er, you lunatic..."
Old Man Helian begged for mercy: "I was wrong, please stop beating me. Can't we just give you money?"
Xia Xing'er let Madam Helian go and beat up the others.
Only after everyone begged for mercy and agreed to pay did Xia Xing'er put away the whip and hand it to Zhang San.
The people from the Helian family, including Master Xia II, were lying on the ground wailing.
Even the inn's proprietress and the waiter came out to watch the fun.
Liu Youran took out a ten-liang silver ingot and pressed it into the proprietress's hand. "We want all the remaining rooms in the inn. If there are any left, we can give some extra dishes to the guests already staying. Our child taught the bad guy a lesson, and since we disturbed everyone, this is our apology."
The proprietress held the silver ingot in her hand, feeling at ease. These things outside had nothing to do with her, as long as the silver had something to do with her. She called the waiter and went back to continue her work.
There are not many people in the inn here. They can't even earn ten taels of silver each, but they earned ten taels in one night.
Before the exile team arrived, only two or three people passing by had stayed there.
They were originally unhappy when listening to their quarreling, but when they heard that they could send some food, their dissatisfaction disappeared completely.
They also inquired from the side and vaguely heard their previous insults.
"It's obvious these people aren't good people. They're grown-ups, yet they slander a little girl for no reason. How shameless!"
"I heard they wanted to stay at the inn just now, but they didn't want to pay and wanted to stay for free. How shameless!"
"If this girl hadn't hurt them just now, they wouldn't have wanted to give me money!"
"You deserve it!"
"I didn't expect that even after being exiled, they would still act so recklessly. I really don't know who gave them the courage!"
The Helian family, Master Xia II and the others heard the discussions of the people around them and suppressed the blood that was about to rise in their mouths.
I feel so aggrieved. Why do they scold me after being beaten, but I become a hero when I beat them up? What kind of world is this?
Helian Zhi gritted his teeth and asked, "How much does it cost?"
Xia Xing'er had a nice look on her face: "I don't want more than one person, just give me 200 coins. If there's one of you here, it counts as one and you all must stay!"
Helian Zhi wanted to go up and argue with her, but then he looked at Xia Xing'er and said: Come on, I'm going to kill you!
He humiliatingly took out 1,200 coins and handed them to Xia Xing'er.
Everyone on the ground took out the money they were supposed to pay and handed it to Xia Xing'er in a frustrated manner.
Seeing how they dared to be angry but not to speak out, Xia Xing'er felt extremely happy. She even felt like she could eat a few more bowls of rice.
She said to the others in the group, "Do you want to stay here? If you do, pay for it. I can give it to you at a lower price. One hundred coins per person will be enough."
Everyone was watching the fun, but when the topic turned to themselves, they all turned their attention away from watching the show.
When they heard that it would cost one hundred coins to stay for one night, they thought it was expensive at first, but when they remembered that the Helian family had just charged two hundred coins per person, they suddenly felt that it was not expensive and paid the money one after another.
In the end, Liu Youran earned back the ten taels of silver he had paid out, and even had two taels left over.
The people of the Helian family and Master Xia's family felt so aggrieved when they saw Xia Xing'er taking their money and eating lavishly.
Helian Zhi and Ye Qingyu did not eat in the lobby and went back to their guest rooms first.
Ye Qingyu was the only one in the Helian family who was not beaten. She had been hiding in the corner.
She always felt that things shouldn't be like this, and she didn't know why she ended up like this.
Xia Xing'er should have wasted time in the backyard, taking care of everything for them. She and Helian Zhi fought and made meritorious deeds on the battlefield. She should have been the only female general of the Xuanyuan Dynasty that everyone envied.
Xia Xing'er should rely on them to survive and shouldn't be so arrogant and domineering.
She didn't know what went wrong. Her relationship with Helian Zhi was not as good as before. Helian Zhi even planned to bring Xia Xing'er back.
Especially that tiger woman, when she was useful, people would fawn over her.
Now that she saw Xia Xing'er had a good relationship with the officials, eating and drinking well, and having carriages to ride in, she started to flatter them again. She really didn't take her seriously!
The poison in Helian Zhi's body was cured by her letting the Devouring System absorb the life span of Tiger Lady. It seemed that she was too kind and only absorbed three years of her life span. If she had known earlier, she would have absorbed ten years.
Old Madam Helian couldn't understand it either. It is said that it is easy to change the country but difficult to change one's nature, so why did Xia Xing'er change so much?
In the past, I was not submissive in the general's mansion, but at least I never disobeyed her and always respected her orders.
The person now who is so aggressive, whipping people, slapping people, and taking people's lives at any time is no longer the same as before.
Could it be that because He Li was traumatized and returned to the Xia family, she felt that she had someone to rely on, which led to her becoming so lawless?
She leaned close to Helian Heng and whispered, "Master, what are we going to do next? That bitch Xia Xing'er doesn't care about our past friendship at all. She'll beat us to death the first chance she gets. We don't have much money left, and our Rong'er and Feng'er aren't married yet. What are we going to do next?"
It's not that she wasn't sad when Helian Rong pushed her out to avoid being whipped, but after all, she was a piece of her own flesh and blood. She had spoiled her since she was a child, so how could she bear to blame her?
She is not afraid of how much suffering she will endure now, because she feels sorry for her children.
Helian Heng pondered for a moment. He had not expected that Xia Xing'er, who had always let them control her, would actually resist. After three years of marrying into the general's mansion, they had not discovered that Xia Xing'er was skilled in martial arts, and not bad at it. It was really a mistake.
"The best plan for now is to hold back and not provoke that bitch for now. Wait until there's a chance."
Helian Heng narrowed his eyes slightly. It seemed that he had to think of a way to get rid of all the members of the Xia family. This way, she would have no one to rely on and would have no choice but to come to them for help.
If Xia Xing'er knew about his shameless thoughts, she would definitely slap him in the face and tell him, "It's not your fault that you're ugly, but it's your problem that you have beautiful dreams!"
In the hall, Xia Xing'er used the money she earned to treat everyone to a big meal, and everyone was very happy.
The officials also expressed their gratitude. They had earned a lot of money following the Xia family, and even the food was much better than before!
The proprietress counted the silver in her hand and smiled from ear to ear.
By the time the hustle and bustle died down, it was already dark. The Xia family asked the waiter to boil some hot water, took a comfortable bath, and changed into clean clothes.
