"Sanjiang, I'm going to credit you with a great achievement this time. This woman's family is really rich, just look." The sound of a box opening and closing was heard in the carriage.
Yan Sanjiang seemed a little anxious. "I told you to make money. Why did you kidnap her? She's a married woman. How much can you sell her for?"
"Oh, you're feeling bad, aren't you?" A man's teasing voice sounded, "I heard from Lao Chen that you had an affair with this woman before. If you still miss her, it's okay for her to let you play with her first. When you get tired of her, you can sell her off."
Chunxiao bit her lip, her heart trembling with anger. Yan Sanjiang must have seen her and Shuwen on the rooftop yesterday, knowing they were exposed. He'd run away with the group, then sneaked back to her place at night, waiting for revenge.
"You two, stop talking nonsense. Who cares about her? I'm in this situation now because of her. How much silver is in this box?"
"I don't know how much, but there are several hundred taels. I searched the house thoroughly and only found these two boxes of useful things. We'll divide the money when we get back. With this money, I can go back and retire and find a wife to sleep with."
"Is this all you found?" Yan Sanjiang was a little dissatisfied, but he was unwilling to say more. "Doesn't their family have cotton or food?"
"Those are inconvenient to carry around, so let's burn them all in one fire." The two men smiled proudly.
Yan Sanjiang was almost crying because of their stupidity. He looked at the person on the ground with pursed lips and squatted down. "Don't blame me. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be like this today."
Chun Xiao hated him in her heart and didn't want to talk to him, but in such a bad situation, an acquaintance was far better than a stranger. "Yan Sanjiang, what do you want to do to me?"
Yan Sanjiang smiled and said, "I didn't mean to do anything to you. They kidnapped you. I'm a money-grubber, not a murderer. You're theirs to deal with. I can only blame you for meddling in other people's business. I didn't intend to take action against you so early. It's your fault that you cut off my escape route."
What this means is that even if it's not this time, she may be caught at any time in the future. This will happen eventually if she is targeted by thieves, and she can't escape this disaster.
The car bumped along for a long time before finally stopping. Chunxiao was then dragged out of the car and thrown somewhere.
"Hurry up and take this silver and hide it. If this place is taken down again, we will have nowhere to stay."
"Brother, with so much money, we can just buy a house in the county town and stop hiding. Don't you still want to retire?"
"I was just saying it, but you took it seriously. I've been in this business for so long, I can't just wash my hands of it. But there's been so much noise lately, so I have to stay out of the spotlight."
Chunxiao was listening to their conversation in the room. This person kept calling "Second Brother" all the time. It seemed that there was an older brother above him. Yan Sanjiang was definitely not their older brother. They just called her by her name. Now her eyes were covered, and she had no idea where she was.
The bracelet on her hand was still there. It must have been too dark at night, and those people tied her up with her sleeves together, so they didn't notice the bracelet. I just don't know if breaking the bracelet will grind the rope open.
She was just about to try it when she suddenly heard the door opening. She was so scared that she didn't dare to move. The man walked up to her and tore the cloth in front of her.
Her eyes went dark, then there was some light. The person was holding a torch. It was night, so she adjusted to the light and then looked at the person. She didn't know what she was seeing until she saw him. She was so scared that she shrank back.
The other person looked at her and laughed mockingly, "Why, you don't recognize me like this."
"Yan Sanjiang?" Chun Xiao couldn't believe it. "Why is your face like this?" The face of the man in front of her looked like it had been burned by fire and was disfigured.
"It's all thanks to you. When I left the village, I injured my leg and tried to find work, but no one wanted me. Then the people from the gambling den came to collect my gambling debts. You can't even imagine the methods they used to collect them. You can't even imagine the suffering I've endured over the years. It's all because of you."
"Yan Sanjiang, it was you who stole from my house first, and then you falsely accused me. You brought this upon yourself, yet you're blaming me for it." Chun Xiao sneered, "You're nothing but a coward who only knows how to run away."
The other party remained silent, then smiled and said, "I've known for a long time that you're sharp-tongued. Okay, let's see how long you can keep your complacency."
"Hey, Sanjiang, you said you weren't interested in this woman, but you still had sex with her when we weren't paying attention. I asked you to have sex with her, but you kept complaining." A short, fat man appeared at the door, leaning against it and smiling ambiguously, "If you like, I can hold the door for you."
Yan Sanjiang glanced at Chunxiao lying on the ground, then left with the torch in hand. The door was closed again.
No, she had to find a way to escape from here. She listened carefully to the noises outside. It must be late at night, and everyone should be going to bed. Her eyes were now free, but the night was too dark and it was difficult to see. She carefully moved to the wall. It was great. The wall was solid and should be able to break her bracelet. However, her hands were tied behind her back, so she knocked hard several times without success.
She didn't care about anything else and threw her right hand against the wall with great force. A piercing pain came from her hand. She didn't know what kind of jade the bracelet was made of, but it pierced her flesh. However, the bracelet finally broke.
She felt around on the ground for a long time before she found a piece of broken jade. She passed it over her palm and it was okay. There was a sharp spot on the broken end. However, it was too difficult to sharpen the rope with her backhand. She couldn't see it and it was easy to rub against her flesh.
At this time, of course, I couldn't care less about the pain. This was the only way to escape. If it was daybreak, it would be over.
