Master Xue spat at Song Shuirong: "You're just tired of this old man and want to go back to being a lady."
Bah! Don't you even remember how you treated those three siblings in the past? I, Xue, am already a shameless scoundrel, but I still have to say I admire your parents.
Now your parents have run away with the money meant to sever ties with you, abandoning even you, their own daughter and mother. They are worse than animals.
You shameless wretch, you still don't know how to repent, you actually want Song Zhenping to send his own sister to exchange for you.
Do you think he's a fool, that you'd rather enjoy wealth and luxury instead?
Song Shuirong trembled all over: "Master, I know I was wrong. I will not leave and will serve you wholeheartedly."
As she spoke, she quickly opened her clothes, revealing her long neck and the thin gold dog leash around it, striking the pose that Master Xue liked best at night.
But Master Xue's face was grim, and there was not a trace of pity or affection in his eyes. He only glanced at him coldly and said, "No need. I'll spare your life for the sake of Young Master Song. Go back to the old mansion, burn incense and pray to Buddha, and live out the rest of your life there!"
After saying that, he threw down the curtain and left, ignoring Song Shuirong's cries and shouts as she chased after the carriage.
Song Shuirong fell to the ground, tears streaming down her face, completely stunned: she was only sixteen years old, and she was supposed to spend her whole life chanting Buddhist scriptures? No, no, she had to go find Song Zhenping and beg for his forgiveness.
Song Shuirong wanted to run away, but how could the two men left behind by Master Xue let her go?
A thug grabbed Song Shuirong's arm and dragged her toward the old house, chuckling, "Xue Wu, I didn't expect the old house to send such a beauty there!"
Master Xue did a variety of jobs, including human trafficking and loan sharking, and inevitably some shady dealings.
This old house at the foot of the mountain, with its own courtyard, is the best place to detain someone. Not only are there no outsiders, but it is also very convenient to handle the aftermath.
Song Shuirong was dragged towards the dark old house, screaming and pleading, "Brother Xue Wen, Brother Xue Wu, please let me go back to Xiaoshi Village. I'll beg my cousin, and he'll give you money."
Looking at Song Shuirong's delicate, rain-soaked appearance, Xue Wu swallowed hard. "Grandma Rong, you need to understand, if you hadn't cursed Young Master Song and kicked Grandma Song today, my brother and I wouldn't be staying here with you."
Because you offended Young Master Song so badly, the master doesn't want you anymore. And you still say you want to go to Xiaoshi Village? You're treating us brothers like fools!
Since I brought you to the old house tonight, just give up and keep chanting Buddhist prayers!
Perhaps one day the master will remember your kindness and send someone to bring you back.
That's what he said, but he didn't actually believe it himself.
Based on his years of experience following the master, he knew that Song Shuirong was no good!
The old house has many rooms and many rats, but few living people; there is only one middle-aged deaf-mute man guarding the gate.
Moreover, the master didn't even say how long he would imprison her this time, which meant he intended for Song Shuirong to fend for herself here.
It took Xue Wen and Xue Wu half an hour to finally knock on the door of the old house while dragging Song Shui Rong along. They then instructed the mute man to guard the door before leading the group into the backyard.
According to the old custom, if the master doesn't want a woman, his two brothers can enjoy her, as long as they live.
Moreover, Song Shuirong is young and has a great body, and she knows how to please men. The two brothers have been eyeing her for a long time.
Song Shuirong's face was ashen. She closed her eyes in despair and let herself be manipulated. After serving Master Xue for more than a year, she had long regarded herself as an animal.
It's true what they say, birds of a feather flock together. No one expected Song Shuirong to be so foolish as to cut off her own path to survival.
Originally, Master Xue's idea was to visit Xiaoshi Village to improve relations with the Song family.
With the death of the most wicked Granny Gu, and with Song Shui Rong's connection, he and Young Master Song would be legitimate relatives.
People who visited Suijin Town before the Lunar New Year said that the Song siblings owned an acorn workshop, a cardboard box factory, a restaurant business, and shops in the town, and had extraordinary relationships with the garrison and county government.
Everyone loves money, and even though Mr. Xue has spent his whole life in the underworld, he also wants to be an upright businessman, which is only natural.
The first issue, naturally, is to resolve the misunderstanding regarding the indenture with the Song family.
Fortunately, Song Liyun's indenture was confiscated by Jiang Feng in Qili County, and the debt was settled, so it actually has nothing to do with him now.
Song Liyun is unharmed.
All Master Xue needs to do now is apologize to Song Zhenping and then shift all the blame onto Song Lao Er, whose fate is unknown, and the already deceased Granny Gu.
In this way, he was also a victim who was deceived and tricked by Song Lao Er.
After Mr. Xue's relentless efforts to fawn over him and his tearful account of his grievances, Song Zhenping finally agreed to say a few words to him.
Upon hearing that Song Zhenping wanted to buy land, Master Xue quickly patted his chest and expressed his willingness to take full responsibility.
The situation is very promising.
But just as Song Zhenping and his wife, along with Song Lizheng and Master Xue, returned to the Song family's old residence and met Song Shuirong, a sudden change occurred.
Song Shuirong cried and made a scene, saying that she was suffering in place of Song Liyun and that Song Zhenping should hand Song Liyun back. She was willing to go to Suijin Town to become a military household.
Even when Song Zhenping refused and Yang Hua scolded him, he attacked Yang Hua, his sister-in-law, and cursed Song Zhenping as a "crippled bastard," saying that if he dared to turn the world upside down, he would definitely break his leg again if his parents came back.
Song, the village head, was so angry he almost fainted.
Song Shuirong was spoiled and domineering from a young age. In the past, she would hit and scold Song Zhenping whenever she wanted.
Having been at Master Xue's house for over a year, surely he can see his own situation clearly and dares to yell at his cousin.
Master Xue was also taken aback by Song Shuirong's actions. This woman, who was as docile as a dog in front of him, ruined his important plans with just a few words.
In particular, Song Shuirong said that she wanted to exchange Song Liyun back to the Xue family, since Song Liyun was originally sold to the Xue family.
She had finally managed to win Song Zhenping over a bit, but these words brought up the things she wanted to erase.
It made Master Xue want to tear her apart.
If you think about what happened in the past, would the Song family still give you opportunities to make money?
Seeing that the eldest son of the Song family was so angry that his face turned blue, Master Xue immediately ordered someone to put Song Shui Rong into a carriage, saying that he would take her back and guarantee that she would never appear in front of Song Zhenping again.
Although there will be time to explain later, the best opportunity for reconciliation has clearly passed.
Little did Master Xue know that Song Shuirong had originally intended to plead with Song Zhenping in a gentle and persuasive manner.
But seeing Song Zhenping in his fine clothes, his head adorned with pearls and jewels, the loving scene between the two, and even the respectful admiration that Master Xue showed towards Song Liyun, all deeply pierced her heart.
Standing in this familiar courtyard, looking at Song Zhenping, Song Shuirong felt like she had become a pampered young lady who had never left home.
As the master, it was just a habit for him to yell at Song Zhenping.
I never expected that in the blink of an eye I would arrive at the Xue family’s old house, where I would be lying in a rotting pile of straw and being trampled on.
None of this was what Song Shuirong wanted, and she didn't know where she had gone wrong.
