Reborn in a Noble Family - Chapter 54
Chapter 54 Worthless and Not Lacking in Money
Qiao Yunxi looked at Lian Qiao a few more times.
After her true self’s memories slowly returned to her cage, she also understood the people around her.
As her eldest maidservant, Lian Qiao was very well-behaved.
Yes, it’s just part of the job.
Everything that should be said and done will be said and done, and there will be nothing else. She had advised her like this before. However, this sovereign was stubborn and anxious to get Old hag’s approval. In addition to Xue Tao and Qiao Jinwen’s deliberate guidance, it was very difficult to turn back on what she had recognized. Just like today, after being encouraged by Qiao Jinwen and Qiao Ningdai, they could really tear down the pearl head and move the entire family to the inn.
Every time she encountered something like this, Lian Qiao would naturally advise her. It was Qiao Xi who made the decision.
However, today was different from usual. When Lian Qiao tried to persuade her, she was a little more timid.
Qiao Yunxi naturally knew why.
To the people around her, she did not conceal her true nature.
She would not quietly defend her true self’s personal settings. The people around her had to adapt to her changes first.
However, even Forsythia did not disappoint her, but …
Lian Qiao was too cautious.
There’s nothing wrong with that.
As a servant, caution was the way to survive.
However, Qiao Xi was dissatisfied with Lian Qiao’s attitude of protecting her life.
Lian Qiao indeed treated her as her master, but that was all she did. She was cautious, respectful, and nothing else.
However, this sovereign’s temperament was not pleasing to the eye, and there was no future for him to follow her. It was already not bad for Lian Qiao to be able to accomplish this.
“I see,” Qiao Yunxi said slowly. “Tell Uncle Quan to stop at Shu Xiang.”
When Qiao Xi went out, all of her uncles drove their carriages, and Dang Gui followed along.
After arriving at “Shu Xiang”, Lian Qiao got off the carriage and bought some stewed meat according to Qiao Yunxi’s instructions. Before he could get on the carriage, a commotion came from the side.
Qiao Yunxi lifted the curtain and glanced at it. He was instantly delighted.
Sell yourself to bury your father!
She could encounter such a vulgar bridge.
Interested, Qiao Xi got out of the carriage.
It was a little different from what she had imagined. The one who sold himself to bury his father was a youth.
Fifteen or sixteen years old, thin and lean. Although his clothes were ragged, they were very clean.
This is not contradictory.
The young man tidied himself up very nicely. En, it would be easy to sell for a good price.
As for the youth’s appearance.
Qiao Yunxi shook his head.
It’s a pity.
On her delicate face, there was a scar from the corner of her eyes to the corner of her mouth, destroying her facial features and giving him a bit of hostility.
Rubbing her chin, Qiao Xi began to assess the value of this youth.
Without people around her, it would be useless from Lian Qiao to Dang Gui. She still had a lot of things to figure out, not to mention taking action first, at least she couldn’t be passive.
The people here have a strong sense of superiority and inferiority. As long as you are recognized as their master, they will not betray their master under normal circumstances. En, this is the general situation.
If she was a loyal person, it wouldn’t matter if she was stupid. She could teach him slowly. She didn’t want to buy a white-eyed wolf to go back.
However, before she could estimate the value of the youth, a middle-aged man with a wealthy figure said, “Ten taels. Follow me back.”
Someone whispered in the surroundings.
Qiao Xi pricked up her ears gossipily.
Oh, this is awesome!
He was actually a child molestation freak.
However, this youth was already fifteen or sixteen years old. He wasn’t considered a “child” anymore. At this age, he could receive guests.
However, this face …
Luckily, that pervert was able to do it.
In his belly, he only heard that the youth had rejected the middle-aged man’s request to buy and sell.
The middle-aged man was instantly dissatisfied. “What’s wrong? Follow me and you’re wronged? Not less than ten taels. It’s enough to buy your father a good coffin. I’m also kind-hearted. I’m willing to buy you. With your appearance, how much do you think you can sell for?”
The youth’s body stiffened as he endured it.
The middle-aged man said reluctantly, “You also don’t ask who I am. Follow me, those who are popular, those who drink spicy, those who follow me. Which one of them didn’t get a sum of money from me after they left?” I also see your pitifulness. Help you and let your father be buried in peace earlier. Don’t be ignorant of what’s good for you. The ones in the Qingfeng courtyard are much stronger than you, and they don’t piss to reflect their virtues. ”
The middle-aged man’s words were neither good nor bad, but they clearly expressed the meaning of the middle-aged man-he was not short of money, and the men who followed him all received a severance payment in the end, so he would not treat his men unfairly.
The youth bit his lips and endured the pain. He didn’t respond until the middle-aged man finished speaking.
He’s a smart one.
Qiao Yunxi secretly nodded.
He could not compete.
It would also cause the middle-aged man to become even more insulted, and even more so, if he became angry and embarrassed, he might even resort to tough methods.
Seeing that the youth did not speak, the middle-aged man did not wait any longer. He threw ten taels of silver in front of him and said, “Take the money and follow me.”
Someone immediately stepped forward to pull the youth up from the ground.
The youth didn’t dodge and didn’t dodge. The few of them pulled a few times, but he didn’t move at all.
Practitioner?
Qiao Xi was even more interested and made a new assessment of the youth’s price.
“Eleven taels, my master wants it.”
A familiar voice.
Qiao Xi’s eyes narrowed slightly as she followed the voice and saw the dumpling.
Needless to say, where there are dumplings, there are black condoms.
“Are you interested in this person?” Qiao Xi’s sudden voice made her shiver. She stared back in disgust and asked angrily, “Damn fatty, why are you here?”
Jin Baijin innocently spread out his hands, “I went to ‘Shu Xiang’ to buy the pork ears. I saw your Maid a long time ago. I greeted you, but you ignored it.”
She was wronged like a 200 jin daughter-in-law.
Knowing that Qiao Yunxi would not care about him, Kim Bak-kin went over and said, “I also think that this person is not bad. I want to buy him back.”
“Young, don’t learn it well.”
‘”Hey, what are you talking about? Am I that kind of person?” Kim Pak-kin blushed. “You’re thinking wrong. I just want to see if he’s good enough to stay by his side.”
“Can you tell that he is good?” Qiao Yunxi teased.
Jin Baijin, who thought that he had been underestimated, said with his nostrils facing the heavens and earth, “This Young Master still has this bit of eyesight!”
“Thirty taels!” Over there, the middle-aged man unrestrainedly shouted.
Qiao Xi nodded at Jin Baijin, “Aren’t you going to bid?”
Jin Baijin snorted coldly, “This Young Master will pay forty taels!”
The surrounding people sucked in a breath of cold air.
Forty taels, not to mention buying one youth, even buying ten youths was more than enough.
These days, people are not worth much.
Someone looked at the youth who was kneeling on the ground with envy. “Kid, you’re lucky. It’s about time. Don’t start the price.”
The youth’s face turned red.
He was selling his body to bury his father, not selling his body just because he was given money!
Since it was a business, it was a matter between the buyer and the seller.
Qiao Yunxi was still deserting. Over there, Tang Yuan had already called for seventy taels of silver.
The onlookers’ eyes lit up, wishing they could kneel on the ground instead of the youth.
The world of the wealthy was indeed different. They looked at him for a long time and didn’t see anything special about him. The bid was only 70 taels. They didn’t know what they had taken a fancy to him.
Not much thinner, maybe, the bed will be gone after a few tosses, is it worth it?
However …
A few flowing and erratic gazes swam around the youth’s body, and their expressions also became wretched.
The fact that a few burly men hadn’t picked up the youth earlier meant that this child’s physical strength was good. Perhaps, this was what the rich people had their eyes on.
“Hey, why aren’t you bidding anymore?” Qiao Yunxi suddenly asked.
Jin Baijin snorted, “I have a lot of money. I burned it. I bought eighty taels of food for someone to go back! There are eighty taels of food, so I have to invite a few high-level martial arts guardians to stay. I’m not stuffed to the brim!”
This side was quiet, but the price of the dumpling was still going on, which made Qiao Xi think more.
From the looks of it, Tang Yuan was determined to obtain this youth.
To tell the truth, although she was a little more interested in this youth, she really didn’t see any value in him, at least it wasn’t worth eighty taels.
Qiao Xi rubbed her chin and looked at the carriage behind Tang Yuan.
It was a very ordinary carriage. There was no family logo on the carriage, so the black condom was very cautious.
Qiao Xi rolled her eyes and walked in front of the youth.
The youth was originally half-buried in his head, his body trembling slightly from the anger he endured.
The early winter winds in Jincheng were chilly. No matter how good his body was, after kneeling for so long, his knees were stiff and his body trembled.
The young man’s consciousness was a little blurry, and the sounds around him were getting closer and closer. He could no longer distinguish who it was, and his head was buzzing. Just as he was getting more and more confused, a faint fragrance came from the tip of his nose.
He subconsciously sniffled.
Mint.
It’s brain-waking mint.
He subconsciously raised his head. In the blur, a small figure stood in front of him and squatted down before he could react.
It’s a girl.
It’s a small ball. Before his forehead reaches his chest, his dark eyeballs are rolling like little foxes. His bright features haven’t grown yet, but the scenery between his eyebrows can’t be concealed anymore. It slowly overflows. Warm and gentle, it slowly corrodes you.
The youth’s mind trembled as he forced himself to regain his rationality.
Qiao Xi smiled warmly as if she was a little embarrassed. She stretched out her hand and placed a silver ingot in her palm. “I only have two taels of silver. Here you are. Bury your father earlier.”
The youth was stunned.
Qiao Xi’s hand was still standing in front of him.
When everyone was arguing about how much money they could buy him back, no one cared about lying on one side, covered with a straw mat, his father.
A sour and sour feeling surged into his heart. The youth could not tell what it was like. The tip of his nose was so bitter that tears came out. He tried his best to blink his eyes and suppress the tears in his eyes. He kowtowed three times to Qiao Yunxi.
Qiao Xi was not used to it and forcefully accepted the youth’s kowtow.
She did not say anything about buying the youth, and did not even report to her family, so she brought Lian Qiao into the carriage.
Jin Baijin rolled his eyes and thought for a moment. He asked the coachman to drive the carriage and follow him out of the city gate.
Qiao Xi looked at Qiao Xi who was sleeping on the carriage, her heart beating wildly.
