Chapter 387 A Great Sin
Chapter 387 A Great Sin
Besides, he knew very well what kind of person Xu Qingrong was.
While the other party is still willing to pay money to solve the problem, we should naturally quit while we are ahead.
Otherwise, if they really make people angry and someone tamper with their food or something, they are unfamiliar with the place and no one will help them.
So even though money is good, you have to have a life to spend it.
Lai Zi came to see Yuxiu today, one reason being that he wanted her to say a few good words and persuade Xu Qinghe to get back their indentures.
They had the money to redeem themselves, but the indenture was in the hands of Young Master Song. Thinking of how ferocious he looked that day, Lai Zi felt weak in the knees and didn't dare to mention the matter of the indenture.
Besides, Young Master Song is a god-like figure, and it is not someone that a bunch of peasants like them can easily meet.
"Don't worry, niece. As long as we redeem the indenture, we will never bother you again and will stay away from your home..."
Afraid that Yuxiu would not agree, Lai Zi almost swore to the sky.
He had just told Yuxiu about how Xu Qingrong's family had instigated them, and also said that they just wanted to live their own lives well in the future and would not follow Xu Qingrong in making trouble.
"That Young Master Song is not easy to deal with, but since Uncle Lai Zi has asked, we have to help him no matter how difficult it is..."
Yuxiu smiled. Although she wanted to use these people to deal with Xu Linzhi's family, since they were determined to turn over a new leaf and be good people, no one would force them.
However, this does not include those from Lao Xu’s family.
"Thank you, niece. Regardless of whether this succeeds or not, we will always remember your kindness..."
Hearing Yuxiu's agreement, Lai Zi's eyes lit up, and he immediately bowed to Yuxiu respectfully and kept thanking her.
"Then when this is done, we will move back to the north of the city and see if we can find some work. After all, we are all bachelors who can feed our family and feed ourselves. No matter how much we earn, we won't starve to death..."
Lai Zi said seriously that when he was in the mine before, he was beaten to pieces by the guards and managers. At that time, he swore in his heart that as long as he could leave the mine alive, he would change his bad habits and work hard to earn money.
Yuxiu smiled and nodded, and asked the waiter to bring some snacks over.
"Come back here at this time tomorrow and wait. We will then exchange the money and the indenture."
She left after she finished speaking, and only then did Lai Zi realize that the snacks the girl had just ordered were for him.
Picking up a piece of exquisite dessert and putting it into his mouth, feeling the sweet taste, Lai Zi only felt a very sour feeling in his heart.
As soon as Yuxiu came out of the teahouse, she met Xu Qinghe and Uncle Cui walking towards her.
"Dad, uncle, where are you going?"
Yuxiu went over to say hello. Xu Qinghe and Uncle Cui looked her up and down. They saw that she looked fine and nothing had happened, so they thought that nothing had happened.
"We heard from our guys that you were here, and we were worried that something might happen to you, so we came to take a look."
In their eyes, no matter how powerful Yuxiu was, she was still a young girl who had not yet reached marriage age, so she naturally had to be careful in everything.
Yuxiu lowered her voice and told the story of Lai Zi again.
Speaking of which, the indentures of those people, including those from the Xu family, had already ended up in Xu Qinghe's hands.
"Lai Zi is quite considerate and even came to ask you to say something nice."
Uncle Cui curled the corner of his mouth with some sarcasm.
At the beginning, that person claimed to be Yuxiu's savior, forcing Xu Qinghe to go up the mountain several times at the risk of his life despite being penniless, and only then could he come up with the so-called thank-you gift.
"It is said that a prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold. So give him another chance. Whether they can catch him or not depends on themselves."
Xu Qinghe didn't care. Since these people entered Xu Qingrong's house, they have been making things difficult for him and even beat him up severely.
Even for this reason, he was willing to return the indenture to them.
Yuxiu followed them back home, and they no longer talked about Lai Zi.
When Old Mrs. Cui heard the news that Uncle Cui had returned, she hurried out from the backyard to greet him.
"The last time I talked to you, you ran away. I thought you would never come to see me again..."
When the old lady saw her son, she couldn't help but start complaining again.
"My dear mother, please forgive me. My son is already so old now. If I really go to harm those little girls, it would be a great sin..."
Uncle Cui felt a headache when he saw his mother talking on and on about the same things again.
Yuxiu couldn't help laughing. After all, the mother and son from the Cui family were quite cute.
As expected, no matter which dynasty or era, even if it is fictional or set in a book, the old people's habit of urging marriage has not changed at all.
"Brother, I don't necessarily want you to find a little girl. If it really doesn't work, you can see if there is an older woman, preferably one around your age..."
At this time, Cui also came back and heard what her uncle said. She couldn't help but speak up to persuade him.
In Cui's opinion, Lin's is really good. Now they are still doing business together. If they get married, the two families will become one, which will make things more convenient in the future.
"Same age? Where can you find your elder brother?"
Uncle Cui couldn't help but glare at his sister. This old lady was already difficult enough to deal with, and as his sister, she didn't know how to persuade her and was adding fuel to the fire.
"Hehe... How come there isn't one? Don't you see one every day?"
Cui came close to her eldest brother and whispered her thoughts. Uncle Cui's eyes widened and he looked at Cui in disbelief.
"Don't talk nonsense, he is a serious person."
Uncle Cui didn’t know what was going on, but he only felt his heartbeat slowly speeding up, and soon it became like beating a drum.
"I'm not talking nonsense. I'll ask someone to test her attitude someday. If she doesn't have that intention, then forget it. But if she wants to leave another family, you can't hold her back, big brother..."
Cui rolled her eyes at her elder brother. The reason why she spoke of this at this time was that she was really anxious and wanted to help these two people.
According to her secret observations these days, Lin was not completely indifferent to Uncle Cui, but she had raised the child alone, and it might be difficult for her to overcome the hurdle in her heart.
