Chapter 145 We All Became Ordinary People
Minnie was silent.
Looking at the three hundred-dollar bills, he swallowed greedily, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "How can I be kind? He asked for it specifically by the lady."
Scarlett took out another hundred-dollar bill, rolled it up, and put it into Minnie's hand. She said in a sweet voice, "Sister Minnie, you are a big celebrity around the young lady. If you can say a few good words for me, the young lady will definitely show leniency. Besides..."
Scarlett approached Minnie and whispered, "Sister Minnie, I'm eighteen years old this year, which is the right age for marriage. My family is not well off, and I'm afraid I can't compete with others for the bonfire party tonight. Only he can afford it, and he suits my taste. Please have some pity on my sister and give her a beastly husband."
As she spoke, Scarlett stuffed another bill into the pocket.
With so much money, Minnie couldn't refuse it even if she wanted to. She stuffed it all into her apron pocket, secretly patted Scarlett's arm, and said, "You call me sister, and what sister wouldn't help her sister? In that case, you should redeem this slave and take him away. I'll go and talk to the lady for you. Remember to hurry, preferably now."
Scarlett smiled and said, "I knew Sister Minnie was the best. Thank you for your trouble. I will take him to redeem him now. We will have the wedding in a couple of days and I will definitely arrange the main table for you. You are our matchmaker."
Minnie was stunned by Scarlett's coaxing. She smiled so hard that her teeth were showing and her eyes were not. She immediately took out a banknote and gave it to Scarlett. "Here, my red envelope. I wish you a happy wedding. I'm waiting to sit at the head table!"
Scarlett glanced at the number on the banknote.
1.
No matter what, it was a thoughtful gesture. She took it with a smile, thanked him several times, and then left with Ashley.
As soon as they left.
Mei Ni glanced at the other slaves, pointed at one at random, and said arrogantly, "You, follow me."
…
…
Scarlett took Ashley's hand and walked towards the accounting office. "Ashley, how much can I redeem you? Did the light curtain say how much?"
Ashley looked at the number on his wrist and replied, "100 Star Coins."
Scarlett was stunned: "So cheap?"
Ashley hummed, and said helplessly: "I am a slave, I am worthless."
Fortunately, he is not worth much, otherwise Scarlett would not be able to redeem him.
The redemption procedures were completed quickly. After paying the money and getting the indenture back, Ashley became a free person in less than twenty minutes.
The light curtain popped up.
[Task 3: Please take your beastly husband away in a reasonable manner. (1/8)]
…
…
Scarlett returns to "her" home.
This is a simple small building left to her by her deceased parents. It has two floors, with the living room and kitchen on the first floor and the living room on the second floor.
There are six houses, which are decorated very warmly and feel like home.
Scarlett took a quick look around and returned to the living room.
Ashley took off his straw hat, revealing his sweat-soaked golden hair. He looked at Scarlett and hesitated to speak: "Scarlett, isn't there anyone else here? Where are they?"
Scarlett poured him a glass of water, "No, you're the first."
"The first one."
Ashley repeated it, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
He picked up the water cup, took two sips, and glanced at Scarlett secretly, "Aren't you going to look for them?"
"Later, I know where they are."
Scarlett took out the money she had hidden under the stove.
This was the money her parents left for her as a gift, a total of 5,000 star coins.
Scarlett took them all out and stuffed them into her pockets, preparing for tonight's bonfire party.
I hope the others are as worthless as Ashley.
Scarlett collected the money, looked up and asked Ashley, "Ashley, do you have a personality?"
"Personality?"
Ashley was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes. I am weak and can't take care of myself. I can't fight or cause trouble, otherwise I will be warned."
No wonder Ashley hid behind him first instead of standing in front of him.
It was completely different from his usual appearance.
"What happens if I warn you?" Scarlett asked.
"The light curtain didn't say."
Ashley didn't know either. He had been very careful this month and had done nothing wrong.
Seeing Scarlett thinking, he also asked, "Scarlett, don't you have a personality?"
"I?"
Scarlett flipped open her character introduction, read it, and said, "No. It only says that I can't reveal my identity, but it doesn't say what I can't do."
"Maybe you are a female master, different from us," Ashley said.
Scarlett thought so too and nodded.
But the focus of her thinking was still on "not revealing her true identity". She temporarily ignored the other points and would think about them again after everyone was present.
After a few seconds, a vague "gurgling" sound caught Scarlett's attention.
She said "Hmm?" and looked at Ashley.
Ashley lowered her head in shame, her cheeks flushed. "Scarlett, I've been a slave for a month and only had one meal a day. I'm a little hungry. Can you give me something to eat?"
Scarlett was stunned. "Isn't there food in your space?"
Chiye arranged nearly half a year's worth of food for everyone. Even if Ashley stayed here for a month, it would be impossible for him to finish it.
Ashley said: "The storage space for the ring is not working and I can't get it out."
Hearing this.
Scarlett opened her ring space.
really.
Can't open.
But the system space can be used.
The mall just won't open.
Scarlett looked at the things in the system space.
The space was not static, so she didn't put any food there.
However, those shiny minerals gave her a lot of inspiration.
She closed the space and asked Ashley calmly, "You just said that we can't use mental power here?"
Ashley nodded.
Scarlett understood the purpose of the other task.
Seeing that Ashley's face was pale with hunger and he was holding his stomach and looking at her, she quickly got up and went to the kitchen to find food.
She looked around the kitchen and found only a white radish. She held it up and asked Ashley, "Do you want to eat it?"
Ashley paled even more. "I don't like radishes."
He has been eating radishes for this month.
carrot.
White radish.
Side dish and radish soup.
Radish stewed with radish.
He feels like vomiting when he sees radish now.
Ashley sniffed, "Scarlett, I'm hungry. I want to eat meat."
Scarlett complained: "You are a deer, you eat grass, why would you eat meat."
Ashley cried, "I'm not a deer anymore. I can't turn back into an animal. I'm so hungry."
Scarlett was amused by his crying voice.
After all, you are in your twenties, why are you still clamoring for food like a child?
She sighed helplessly, "Let's go, I'll take you out to eat."
…
…
The two came to a nearby restaurant.
Scarlett was also a little hungry after being disturbed by Ashley's noise.
Pick up the menu and take a look at the prices.
The cheapest is 1 star coin, the most expensive is 10 star coins, the prices are great.
She handed the menu to Ashley and said generously, "Order whatever you want."
Ashley was so hungry that he ordered all the meat without any hesitation, filling the whole table.
They ate it all in one swift move.
Scarlett originally wanted to eat together, but seeing Ashley looking starving, she silently put down her chopsticks and wanted to wait until he was full before eating.
During the pause, she saw the law enforcement bulletin board diagonally across from the restaurant.
There are a few photos on it.
Her eyes moved and she walked over.
Reward order.
Twelve of them, covering the entire bulletin board.
Name, age, place of origin, crime and reward amount are written on it in order.
The guard guarding the bulletin board noticed Scarlett's interest and jokingly asked, "Want to earn a reward?"
Seeing Scarlett's pale and thin face, she shook her head and said, "Little female, I see you are not very old and not strong either. You'd better give up this idea."
"These guys are the biggest thieves the entire galaxy has ever seen. They're incredibly powerful and can use their mental powers. They're not something we ordinary people can come into contact with."
"Spiritual power?"
Scarlett pointed at the bulletin board. "Can they use psychic powers?"
