Chapter 216 At least thirty or forty people followed

Since it was possible to save them, Ji Yingying decided to do her best to help this unfortunate mother and daughter.

Ji Yingying peeked inside and saw a woman washing vegetables.

"Hi, Auntie, are you getting ready to eat?" Ji Yingying greeted her and went inside, squatting down next to the auntie to watch her wash vegetables.

Li Cuihua looked up at her. She knew that a little girl had come to the banyan tree today, and she had heard that she had given each of them a packet of oil. She refused to go and was beaten up by the old woman.

"You want to kill this whole family?"

“You…” Li Cuihua stared at her with wide eyes. No one knew about this plan. How did she know?

"Not only do you want to kill them, but you also want to commit suicide?" After saying that, Ji Yingying smiled and said, "Don't do that. I'll help you. I'll help you deal with them all, and I'll also get you a divorce so you can live with your son. How about that?"

"You..." Li Cuihua couldn't believe it. In her shock, she asked, "Are you really going to help me?"

"Yes, I'll help you. Don't worry, I'll definitely help you solve it. It'll be done in two days at the latest."

"Thank you." Li Cuihua wanted to kneel down, but Ji Yingying stopped her.

"No need, no need, you wait here, I'll go arrange it for you now." Ji Yingying had a plan in mind, but she still needed to confirm it with Xiangxiang.

[Dog Egg, tell me, does this handsome young man owe money?]

"Hmm, he's recently started thinking about selling his wife again. You'd better hurry."

[If only I had a phone, I could just call and have someone come to collect the debt tonight.]

There's a phone, but the other party doesn't have one either. Telephones didn't exist back then, not even electricity.

There's oil! Didn't they discover oil before?

Hehe... Tell me, will it work?

No, we'll see how the Ministry of Works handles it then. Let's not talk about this anymore. I suddenly remembered, I can go to Rong Er.

"Rong Er"

Rong Er came out immediately, and Ji Yingying smiled smugly the moment she saw him. She even laughed loudly.

"Your Highness!" Rong Er didn't know what Ji Yingying was laughing at. This feeling was so strange, and he was a little scared!

【why are you laughing? 】

[Laugh at me for having secret guards! I'm so amazing!]

[You think you're so great? But is that all you have? Even your fighting skills aren't yours. What are you so smug about? Don't you know the saying: only knowledge and skills that you truly possess can bring you security?]

I also possess a wealth of knowledge and skills.

Do you know how to perform light-footed kung fu? Do you know martial arts?

Ji Yingying was speechless for a moment, then coughed awkwardly and said to Rong Er, "Go find someone, find the people this family has offended, and have them come and cause trouble. Then have the government find a pretext to lock them up and exile them."

"Before the exile, tell them to release Li Cuihua and tell the magistrate that he only has two days."

"yes"

Rong Er went on a mission. As soon as he left, Ji Yingying trembled slightly, then worriedly asked, "Who will protect me now that Rong Er is on a mission?"

Rong Er didn't go. He arranged for someone else to carry it out. His job was to stay by your side and protect you.

Wait, Rong Er has someone with him?

[Follow me. There are at least thirty or forty people protecting you in the shadows along the way, so you can't be absent from work for long.]

【Ouch~ I'm so unlucky, but they haven't come to catch me yet, so I'll keep wandering around.】

This family's visit will last for two days. Ji Yingying doesn't plan to leave the village. Instead, she will go to the village head and rent a house to stay in. As for food and drink, she has no worries at all.

After sleeping through the night, I heard a chattering sound outside early the next morning.

Ji Yingying was woken up by the noise.

What's going on outside?

The show that was arranged yesterday has finally taken place.

"I have to go out and take a look." Ji Yingying made herself a fried egg, a sandwich, and a grilled sausage, then went out and ate while looking around at the door.

There's also something interesting to watch, and this breakfast tastes delicious!

"We really have no money left, really, sob sob... This is my wife, I'll give her to you in return."

"Compensate me?" The leading man glanced at Li Cuihua, snorted, and said dismissively, "Her? She's so old, and you want to compensate me? Do you think I'm a junk collector?"

"No, I don't have any, I'm out of money, I..."

"Then let's cut off their hands and feet. You should know the rules of our casino."

"No, no, you hit her, she'll break her arms and legs!" Xiao Shuai shoved Xiao Mei forward, and Xiao Mei trembled with fear!

"How about this, you pay me one hundred taels, and this woman will go with you. You write a divorce agreement and a guarantee that you will not harass her in the future."

Upon hearing that it was one hundred taels, and more, everyone gasped. This debt was far too great; one hundred taels was enough for a family to eat for several years. They never expected it would be gambled away.

"I...don't have a hundred taels," Xiao Shuai said weakly, sounding incredibly cowardly.

"No, if you don't have it, then mortgage this house to me. The house, madam, you can have it all, consider it a mortgage. Otherwise, I'll cut off your hands and feet!"

"Okay, okay, okay, we agree." The old woman hurriedly made Xiao Shuai write a divorce agreement and a guarantee.

I had just finished writing when the government officials arrived!

It was the county magistrate who came. What a big case this must be that it made the county magistrate come all the way here.

"Zhang Daniu, you are suspected of murder. Men, take him away! Take this whole family away."

The next second, the casino owner stopped him and said, "This woman is no longer theirs. This is a divorce agreement. Please take a look, sir."

The official picked it up and glanced at it, then took out another copy: "Since a divorce agreement has already been written, then they are no longer a member of the Zhang family. Let them go. Also, I will take this copy directly to the yamen for filing, so you won't have to go there."

"Alright, thank you, sir." Zhang Daniu's family kept begging for mercy, but no one paid them any attention.

The government officials left, leaving only the casino staff.

"Here you go, and this land deed is also for you. You're free now."

"This..." Li Cuihua looked at them, puzzled and somewhat apprehensive.

After all, she was a casino employee, and as a woman, she knew the casino's rules. She had resigned herself to being a slave for life, but she never expected this.

“A young girl helped me. She said she would set you free. Oh, and I have another idea.”

"Sir, please speak!" Li Cuihua waited respectfully for him to speak.

"You can't live in this house. How about I buy it for five hundred taels and you can live somewhere else in the future?"

Upon hearing the price, Li Cuihua's eyes reddened, and she quickly waved her hand, saying, "It's too much, too much, I can't take that much."

“Your house looks to be worth about the same, and it also comes with land.” When Xiao Shuai took out the property, the casino boss saw the small plot of land and casually took it out as well.
