Chapter 138 How could she, a wicked person, have such a thing?
Mrs. Qian was so embarrassed that she just burst into tears.
Cry about your grievances.
Her daughter was missing, and she was beaten and insulted. She...
The more she cried, the more uncomfortable Mrs. Qian felt.
Old Wei on the side couldn't stand it and frowned:
"Shut up.
When someone is missing, you either throw dirty water on them or just cry, which is useless.
It's really unfortunate that they were born into your belly and came out of your belly."
Mrs. Qian is in a bad position to cry or not cry.
He just stared at Lao Wei stupidly, his breathing quickening as he was angry.
It took a while for the people who were doubting their lives after being criticized by Lao Wei to come to their senses.
Why is Mr. Wei's mouth becoming more and more poisonous?
Song Mingyu from the Song family didn't look very good at the moment.
There was no concubine's daughter in their family, so he had to step forward.
He coughed lightly:
"Master Wei, now is not the time to pursue these matters.
Now is not the time to look for an accomplice. As long as we rescue the kidnapped girl, we will naturally know who the accomplice is.
So the most urgent thing now is to rescue the kidnapped girls. If we delay any further, I’m afraid something bad will happen to them.”
A dark glint flashed in Song Mingyu's eyes.
This concubine's daughter of his Song family was quite pretty. He originally wanted to wait until he arrived in Baoan City and use her to curry favor with King Luo and seek benefits for his Song family.
If something happens to her, then everything he has planned will probably fail?
At present, she is the only suitable girl in the Song family, so no matter what, nothing can happen to her.
Thinking of this, Song Mingyu quickly bowed to Old Wei:
"Master Wei, please arrange for escorts to rescue the people. I'm leaving all this up to you."
When Mrs. Qian and others heard this, they immediately bowed to Old Wei and begged him to send someone to rescue their daughter.
Old Wei sneered.
They were calculating very quickly, and the beads were almost jumping in front of his eyes.
Let him arrange for the escort to rescue people?
Do they know how many bandits there are in Qingfeng Village?
Even if he arranged all the escorts to go out, the number of people would not be even a fraction of the enemy's, not to mention that Qingfeng Village was easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Where did they get the confidence to think that these dozens of escorts could capture Qingfeng Village and rescue the people?
He sneered, "Okay."
Before he finished speaking, he saw these people sighing with relief, and the sneer on their faces deepened:
"Everyone who has lost their daughter, please give me 150 taels of silver. I will send someone to Qingfeng Village to negotiate a redemption."
Song Mingyu and others widened their eyes.
After a long while, he stammered:
“Master Wei, why should we spend money if you go to rescue them?
All you have to do is defeat them and rescue the people.
Also, Mr. Wei, we don’t have that much money, where can we get it from?
Besides, you are escorts, isn't it your responsibility to protect us?"
"Really?" Old Wei sneered:
"Song Mingyu, I have to say that you think too much. My brothers and I have no responsibility to protect you. Whether you live or die is none of my business.
As long as 60% of you make it to Mocheng, the court won't care. As for those abducted women, I'll report them truthfully."
You want me to take my brothers and fight the bandits head-on to snatch people away? That's wishful thinking.
Humph, their lives are lives, but their brothers’ lives are not lives?
The coldness on Old Wei's face grew thicker.
Song Mingyu's face turned red.
Mrs. Qian couldn't help crying again:
“If it were in the capital, I would take it even if it was 1,500 or 15,000 taels, let alone 150 taels.
But now, I really can't come up with one hundred and fifty taels.
Oh, my poor girl!"
As she cried, her eyes suddenly lit up and she turned around and rushed towards Lin Mo.
Lin Mo frowned and quickly stepped back to avoid her wolf-like pounce.
But with a thud, Mrs. Qian knelt down in front of Lin Mo in a mess.
She looked at Lin Mo with tears in her eyes:
"Mrs. Xu, I know you don't need this little money, can you..."
"cannot!"
Before she could finish her words, Lin Mo interrupted her with a cold face.
Then he sneered:
"Why, do I have the word saintly or stupid written all over my face? Do you think I'll help you without bearing a grudge?"
Mrs. Qian's face suddenly turned pale and her body began to tremble.
She is unwilling to help, so what about her daughter?
She couldn't help but plead pitifully:
"I, I beg you, please help this poor mother of mine, I..."
Zhou Peizhi in the crowd couldn't stand it anymore and snorted coldly:
“How shameless.
You just tried your best to throw dirty water on Madam Xu, and now you turn around and kneel down in front of her. Do you want to use moral blackmail on Madam Xu and force her to pay money to help you?
Xu Shaofu, you must not be soft-hearted and help this kind of person, or she might turn against you."
"That's right. Even if Madam Xu doesn't need the money, why would she help you ungrateful people? Is it because you're clueless, or are you too shameless?" Liu Dongyang said sarcastically.
"I advise you to be a decent person. Can your Qian family really not come up with 150 taels of silver? Humph, it's not that they can't come up with it, but they are reluctant to spend it."
…
Others also blamed them.
Zhao Qi on the side finally became impatient:
"Are you going to save them or not? If not, just tell us directly and don't delay our journey.
Anyway, they are just a few money-losing products, it doesn’t matter whether they are saved or not.
After all, one hundred and fifty taels now can allow your family to survive to Mo City.
We understand you're reluctant to use it to save people, but please don't waste everyone's time pretending to be doing it."
Zhao Qi is a scoundrel who rudely tears off the fig leaf of these people.
Humph, isn’t it just that you don’t want to spend the money, but you also want to rescue the person?
How could something so cheap be possible in this world?
Mrs. Qian looked embarrassed.
Before she could say anything, Qian Sheng, the head of the Qian family, pulled her up.
Qian Sheng roared at her angrily:
"She's just a worthless girl, a money-loser. She was kidnapped, so what? Why bother with her so much? She deserves to be captured. Who allowed her to wander around in the middle of the night? What's the point of rescuing her? Her reputation is ruined. It's better to let her die and avoid wasting money."
Madam Qian's face turned pale as she looked at Qian Sheng in disbelief.
“Are you crazy?
That’s your daughter, your own daughter.”
"So what if it's my own daughter?" Qian Sheng disagreed:
"It's just a money-losing thing. I tell you, don't cause trouble for me, or I won't let you go."
a shame.
Is the Xu family someone they can mess with now?
You couldn’t mess with him before, and you can’t mess with him now.
I don't know where her brain went.
Taking a deep breath, Qian Sheng calmed himself down, then looked at Xu Wuyan and Lin Mo with an apologetic smile:
"Master Xu, Madam Xu, please don't be angry.
My wife is not very smart, please don't bother with her.
We don't care about that evil girl of ours anymore."
After saying that, he dragged the reluctant Mrs. Qian towards the Qian family, while he was still whispering threats to Mrs. Qian.
When the others saw that the Qian family gave up directly, a hint of hesitation flashed across their faces, and then they gave up as well.
It’s not that they can’t come up with one hundred and fifty taels.
But if they take it out, what will they eat and drink for the rest of the journey?
Also, how will they settle down after arriving in Mocheng?
After weighing the pros and cons, I can only choose to give up.
Just a daughter, just abandon her.
Song Mingyu's face looked very ugly. Did these people just give up like that?
He did not give up and went forward to find more allies.
But the only response he got was a shake of the head.
When I turned around again, Lao Wei and the other escorts had already left, and at the same time they were shouting for everyone to get ready to go.
Song Mingyu could only look at Lin Mo:
"Mrs. Xu, could you please..."
"Ping'an, Pinggui, throw him out!" Xu Wuyan said with a cold face.
You even dare to look for his wife, thinking he has no temper?
Song Mingyu's face changed drastically, but before he could say anything, Xu Ping'an and Xu Pinggui rushed to his side.
One of them held one of his arms and carried him towards the gate.
Song Mingyu roared angrily:
"Xu Wuyan, if you don't want to help, then don't want to help. Why did you abandon me?"
"You've gone too far, Xu Wuyan...put me down."
“Ahhhh!”
…
Ignoring the screams coming from outside, Xu Wuyan looked at Lin Mo and shook his head at her:
“Don’t pay attention to villains like this.
Just do it when it's time to do it, don't waste time talking to them."
A bunch of ungrateful people!
There was a flash of hostility in Xu Wuyan's eyes. He didn't like living a peaceful life and liked being beaten. He could fulfill his wish.
Lin Mo nodded, "I know."
He glanced at Song Mingyu, who was walking awkwardly towards the house outside the gate, and a hint of sarcasm appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"If you hadn't let Ping An and the others take action, I would have been ready to punch him directly."
Oh!
If you don’t understand what people are saying, she can teach you.
Xu Wuyan nodded and let Xu Pingan push her next to her:
"Don't be soft-hearted in this kind of situation. If you are soft-hearted, these ungrateful people will bite you and use moral blackmail to force you to do things you don't want to do.
But judging from today's situation, I feel very confident in my wife, and she has performed very well."
Womanly kindness?
Lin Mo rolled her eyes. How could she, a wicked person, have such a thing?
Shake your head:
"Soft-hearted? Not happening.
But the disappearance of these girls is indeed suspicious?
You are right, there is indeed an insider from Qingfeng Village here, but who is this person?"
Lin Mo looked at Xu Wuyan with doubt in her eyes:
"Who do you think is the culprit?"
She just looked around carefully at everyone, but unfortunately, she didn't find anything unusual.
