After she got dressed, she asked it again, "How much do you charge for garbage disposal?"
[Reporting to the host, this system offers very reasonable prices; it only costs 1 gold coin to process one pound of garbage.]
Lin Qixia rolled her eyes at this reply, "Fair price? I don't believe you for a second!"
One gold coin is only enough to process one pound of garbage. As the amount of garbage increases, the accumulated cost will become a considerable sum.
"Lin Qixia... are you coming out or not? I really need to talk to you." Lin Jiudong's voice urged again from next door.
This time, however, the other person's voice softened, and even carried a hint of a sob.
Lin Qixia didn't notice this and was busy tidying herself up.
She quickly replied, "Coming."
After leaving the house, Lin Qixia went to the next room and looked at the other person through the window. She then realized that Lin Jiudong seemed to be acting strangely.
Lin Jiudong's eyes were red as she spoke, "You're finally out."
"What do you want?" Lin Qixia asked.
"I...I want to apologize to you..." Lin Jiudong looked at her sincerely.
"What?" Lin Qixia twitched her lips, thinking she had misheard.
Who uses such an arrogant attitude to demand that someone come over and apologize?
Although her attitude has changed now.
Facing her older sister's gaze, Lin Jiudong felt insulted and tightened her grip on the window railing.
If her sister-in-law hadn't refused to let her out of her room for dinner last night, she would have thought the confinement would continue for the next few months, and she was terrified.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have humbled myself like this to beg Lin Qixia!
After a moment, she loosened the window bars and said to Lin Qixia, "I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have taken advantage of you and sent you to the mountain alone, which caused you to be injured by those thugs."
Lin Qixia raised an eyebrow: "Anything else?"
"You!" Lin Jiudong didn't expect the other party to keep going!
However, she was locked in her room for a whole day and night, and didn't even leave the room. She was really going crazy from being cooped up.
Calm down! The only person who can help her regain her freedom now is Lin Qixia.
Thinking it over, she took a deep breath and continued to explain to Lin Qixia with a patient expression: "Also, I shouldn't have lied to my little niece, saying, saying that you would sell her."
"Huh?" Lin Qixia looked surprised when she heard what she said next.
Unexpectedly, Lin Jiudong said such vicious things to his niece.
No wonder my little niece was so frightened last night; it took her a lot of effort to calm her down.
"You...you don't know?" Lin Jiudong's face turned pale and she quickly covered her mouth, realizing that she had said too much.
Given yesterday's situation, she thought her little niece would definitely tell Lin Qixia what she had said to her, and that she had been careless.
She quickly grabbed Lin Qixia's arm and pleaded, "Sister, I really know I was wrong, I'm sorry..."
Seeing her like this, Lin Qixia sneered: "You did such a despicable thing, do you think an apology is enough?"
With that, she coldly shook off the other person's hand and turned to leave.
"Don't go! I know it's not going to end like this!" Lin Jiudong called out anxiously. "I just beg you to ask my older brother to plead for me and let me out. Consider it a debt I owe you, and I will definitely find a way to repay you in the future!"
"repay?"
Lin Qixia stopped in her tracks and turned to look at her. "This isn't repaying a debt, it's paying a price!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Jiudong immediately nodded vigorously: "That's right! I will make it up to you! I will definitely compensate you double for the harm I caused you!"
"Please, sister, can you ask my brother to let me out?"
Seeing her like this, Lin Qixia walked over with interest. Under Lin Jiudong's expectant gaze, she paced back and forth, touching her chin with one hand. "Hmm... let me think about it."
“Okay, sister, take your time thinking about it!” Lin Jiudong replied, looking at her expectantly.
Lin Qixia thought for a long time, her expression changing repeatedly.
In this way, Lin Jiudong was tormented quite a bit without even realizing it.
She then made up her mind and said to Lin Jiudong, "Okay, I promise to plead for you and my brother."
As for whether her older brother agreed, she didn't know.
Upon hearing this, Lin Jiudong finally showed an excited expression of relief: "That's great! Thank you, sister!"
After Lin Qixia turned and left, Lin Jiudong collapsed to the ground, completely exhausted.
Actually, she didn't expect Lin Qixia to actually help her get out.
I'm going crazy being cooped up in this room, so I can't let go of any hope.
After that, Lin Jiudong just waited and waited.
One hour, two hours, three hours passed.
Before she knew it, Lin Jiudong had been locked up for another day. Her room was completely empty and very small.
She couldn't do anything but embroidery, and she couldn't be patient.
By evening, they had completely broken down.
"Waaaaah... When are you going to let me out! Lin Qixia, are you lying to me?" Lin Jiudong leaned against the window and buried her head in her hands, crying.
Click—
Just then, the sound of the lock on her room door being opened rang out.
Lin Jiudong suddenly looked up and noticed that the door was about to open.
"Sister-in-law!" The moment He Zhilan opened the door, Lin Jiudong excitedly rushed over.
She cried, tears streaming down her face: "You finally let me out! Did my older brother agree to let me out?"
My sister-in-law locked her in the room and wouldn't even let her out to eat.
This must have been tacitly approved by her older brother, so she subconsciously thought that her older brother had forgiven her.
“Uh…” He Zhilan was startled by Lin Jiudong’s excited attitude.
Before she could say anything, Lin Jiudong suddenly screamed and ran towards the courtyard gate.
He Zhilan was about to remind her that her husband, Lin Xiao, hadn't agreed to let her leave the yard when she saw Lin Qixia push open the gate and come in.
"Ahhh, sister! Thank you, sister!" Lin Jiudong pounced on Lin Qixia.
As soon as Lin Qixia entered the courtyard, Lin Jiudong hugged her tightly. She looked puzzled and asked, "What's going on?"
"Sister, you don't need to say anything! I know you must have begged Big Brother properly, otherwise he wouldn't have released me so quickly!" Lin Jiudong said to Lin Qixia in a trembling voice.
Lin Qixia: "..."
No, she didn't. Although she had promised Lin Jiudong, she had other things to do and left early in the morning.
Thinking that he would lock Lin Jiudong up for another day and then talk to his older brother when he got back in the evening, he didn't expect to be faced with this situation when he returned.
She looked at He Zhilan, who was not far away, with a questioning look in her eyes.
He Zhilan shrugged, looking puzzled.
I had locked her in the room last night, and then I was too busy this morning to remember.
After working in the fields all day, he came back to find that Lin Jiudong was still locked up, so he came to let her out.
Seeing He Zhilan's reaction, Lin Qixia roughly understood what was going on.
Given He Zhilan's personality, she wouldn't have been willing to keep Lin Jiudong locked in her room for too long.
It seems Lin Jiudong really misunderstood.
