Chapter 208 Money Lure
Last night when they saw the kitchen door closed from the inside, they thought something would happen in the middle of the night.

I just didn't expect that the person who came here was the patriarch I met last night.

Aunt Liao hesitated for a moment and opened the door. There was a man in his thirties beside the patriarch.

Qing'er looked at the two vigilantly and asked, "What do you want to do?"

It wasn't because Qing'er was vigilant, it was because the patriarch at the head of the village and the people outside didn't speak very kindly just now.

Now that the two of them appear, it is inevitable that they will think of something, especially a bad thing.

The patriarch said softly with guilt on his face: "Qing'er, follow your uncle and leave here immediately."

When these words came out, Hua Xiaoqiao and Aunt Liao were stunned. They looked at the patriarch in amazement and couldn't understand why the patriarch said that.

The patriarch's voice was very soft: "The girl just now had no choice but to do that in the village. If I didn't treat you like that, they wouldn't let you go easily."

Seeing the three of them staring blankly at him, the patriarch knew that he didn't understand why he said this, and immediately explained: "Everyone in the village wants the property left by Grandma Deng. You have already quarreled before you came. Now that you are back, Qing’er, they are all worried that you will rob them of your property. I can’t help but do what I did to you yesterday. I hope you don’t mind too much. There is nothing you can do about it. Follow your uncle and I will ask him to send you out of the mountain. It’s okay to wait until you grow up and come back. Now you are too young. Although I am the patriarch, I am also old. There are several people in the village who want to snatch this position. I am good friends with your grandma and I really don’t want to see what happens to you. so……."

The patriarch looked as if he was in a dilemma. Hua Xiaoqiao and Aunt Liao didn't fully believe the patriarch's words. They didn't know how much of what the patriarch said was true or not. No one really knows.

But now that the patriarch said it so seriously, they just wanted to leave here, no matter if it was true or false, they just left.

The three of them didn't have many things in the first place, Hua Xiaoqiao and Aunt Liao discussed in a low voice, and decided to leave here with the patriarch, no matter what, they must be careful now.

Aunt Liao looked contemptuously in her eyes: "If you tell us to leave, we will leave. Who knows what you want to do to us? We are all powerless people, and you are all big and three thick men. What do you want to do? How can we fight back against us?"

The patriarch was very anxious, stomping his feet and looking at the three of them, he said anxiously: "My ancestors, why did I lie to you? I know that you are all nobles and should not be offended. If we really treat you, we don't need to look for you at this time. Yes, what I told you is true. If you don’t leave tomorrow, you may not be able to leave tomorrow. This girl may be forcibly left as a wife. Don’t think I’m scaring you in this village. You have also seen the situation of poverty. None of the girls outside are willing to marry in such a poor place. We all buy wives from outside. The property of Mrs. Deng may not be much in your eyes, but in our eyes it is It's different. In everyone's eyes, Qing'er's return is to snatch the place that belonged to everyone. It doesn't matter if you say we are unkind or whatever. Let's leave now while it's getting dark. I really can't leave until tomorrow. "

Hua Xiaoqiao and Aunt Liao decided to leave now, and the patriarch's son led the three of them away through the back door with a blank expression.

There is no moon in the sky today, and the surroundings are so dark that they can't see clearly. The three of them are a little afraid that the village at night is too quiet, so the three of them can only follow behind the man with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

From time to time, the man looked back at the three of them and occasionally reminded them.

The village was very quiet, and the four of them breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the village. After entering the woods, the man lit the torch.

Qing'er walked behind the man after hesitating for a long time, but couldn't help asking: "Uncle, why do you all seem to be different people, you were not like this when grandma was here."

She couldn't figure out how it was all good before, but how it became like this now.

The man looked back at Qing'er and sighed: "That's because every time your grandma comes back, she will bring something to the people in the village, and she is good to the people in the village, so everyone respects your grandma, but you have Didn't you think that this respect actually contains other meanings?"

Qing'er's eyes were full of disappointment: "I didn't expect them to become like this. They really misunderstood them before and thought they were all good. They won't embarrass you if you let us go?"

Now that I have left the village, I still believe what the patriarch said just now.

The man sighed: "When the time comes, just say that you sneaked away from the back door. If you leave, don't come back. This is not a place for people to stay. If you really want to find a quiet place, there is a small town not far from here." , that town is very remote but the people inside are very nice, I suggest you go there and have a look.”

There were strange birds chirping in the woods, Hua Xiaoqiao felt a little scared while holding Qing'er's hand.

Suddenly there was a fire in the distance, and the man immediately extinguished the torch in his hand and looked ahead vigilantly.

The man stared at it for a while and said worriedly: "It's too bad that something may have happened. The people in front may be people from the village. They must have discovered us."

Both Aunt Liao and Hua Xiaoqiao had a bad feeling. The man looked at the three of them worriedly and said, "I don't know if you believe me or not. If you believe me, I will hide all the valuables on your body and wait until you are safe." Time to come back and get it."

Although it was dark in the woods, the man's tone of voice and the anxious expression on his fuzzy face didn't seem to be fake.

I really believed what the man said.

"Aunt Liao gave me all the clothes on your body, and Qing'er gave me all the previous things, and I will hide in the woods."

Neither Qing'er nor Aunt Liao hesitated and took out all the valuables and handed them to Hua Xiaoqiao.

Hua Xiaoqiao took the clothes and went straight into the woods, but after walking a dozen steps, she put all the valuable clothes into the space, leaving only a few better clothes hidden behind the tree, and then walked out .

The man was walking back and forth in the same place, and some didn't know what to do.

"Shall we go forward now or go back?"

Hua Xiaoqiao glanced at the man and said: "Go back quickly and we will go by ourselves. If they know that you took us away, they will definitely implicate you. As long as the three of us go there, nothing will happen."

The man scratched his head honestly: "But my father asked me to send you away, and to make sure that you have nothing to do."

"Uncle, you'd better go back, we don't want to implicate you."

Qing'er also opened her mouth. At this time, she really felt that the man was sincerely for their own good, so she spoke a lot more gently.

Hua Xiaoqiao picked up the torch and lit it, glanced at the man, and then stuffed a piece of broken silver to the man: "You should go back. If the people in the village really want to treat us, you can help us if you are not discovered."

Without even thinking about it, the man put the money back into Hua Xiaoqiao's hands: "I didn't help you because of your money. In the past, Grandma Deng was very kind to our family before she passed away. Our family is also thanks to her care. Now that her descendants have come back and suffered these things, we are already very guilty, how can we ask for your silver."

Hua Xiaoqiao is in a much better mood. At least the people here have not completely disappointed her: "You take it. If you don't take it, they will take it away if I have money. If you take it, at least I can rest assured."

What Hua Xiaoqiao said made the man think deeply.

As the torches got closer and closer, there was no time, and Hua Xiaoqiao pushed the man no matter how much, so the man was reluctant to leave.

The three of Hua Xiaoqiao and Qing'er walked forward, and soon met the person holding the torch.

The leader was the middle-aged man from the family at the head of the village.

The middle-aged man looked at the three of them with a sneer: "I knew that the patriarch's family would help you leave here. If you really didn't think wrongly, the patriarch's arm was turned outward and he wanted to send them away."

Hua Xiaoqiao answered directly: "Although the patriarch wanted to send us away, we escaped by ourselves. Don't you guys know that the house has a back door? Don't think that we can't leave after locking the front door."

The middle-aged man's face darkened: "Catch them all for me."

Aunt Liao immediately protected the two of them and looked at the rushing person with sharp eyes: "I see which of you dares."

The voice was so loud that the three men standing behind the middle-aged man stopped in their tracks.The middle-aged man's expression became even uglier, and he looked back at the three of them and said, "Why don't you want to marry a wife, these three are just right to be your daughters-in-law, this is always a bit old, but you can definitely give birth to a child."

This was very brazen, Hua Xiaoqiao and Aunt Liao trembled with anger when they heard this.

Especially Aunt Liao, this is the first time she has encountered such a thing at such an old age. The three people behind her can be her sons, but now they still want to make up her mind, how can they not be angry when they hear it.

Just about to talk, Hua Xiaoqiao said leisurely: "You can really listen to him talking nonsense here, don't you know that a twisted melon is not sweet? And the three of us have someone who is suitable to be a daughter-in-law, It’s also thanks to him saying such things to fool you. Don’t you all know that these are unrealistic things? There is one more important thing that you haven’t thought about whether we are willing or not. There is money to marry a daughter-in-law, and you can marry young and beautiful ones."

These words made the three of them look at each other, and then began to hesitate.

The middle-aged man was very anxious: "Do you really believe that they will give you money?"

Hua Xiaoqiao didn't say anything, took out the money bag and waved it in front of the three of them: "There are about three taels of silver in this money bag. If you can let us go, the money will be yours. Of course, you may also take the money." If you don’t want to let us go, it doesn’t matter, as long as you let us go, I can still tell you how much money I have hidden. I can tell you the location, or the three of you can follow me to the town outside. Give you one or two, think about how you can marry a young and beautiful daughter-in-law with two or two, the three of us just want to leave here, and promise that we will not come back to compete with you for Granny Deng's property in the future."

These words made the three of them very excited. If they really had two taels of silver, they could really buy a young and beautiful daughter-in-law outside the mountain, and they still had money to do other things. It was obvious at a glance that she was not obedient, and Aunt Liao was too old, so if the three in front of her were to be daughters-in-law, they would actually be a little unwilling. "

Hua Xiaoqiao saw the hesitation flickering in the eyes of the three people, and continued to add fuel to the fire: "And you don't want to do anything to us, the prince knows that we entered the mountain, and our route is here, if we go out Do you think the king will not know about the matter? We asked people all the way when we entered the mountain yesterday, and many people can prove that we entered the mountain. If something happens to us, you think the prince can spare you?"

Hua Xiaoqiao's words stunned the three of them. Indeed, this is a very important matter. If something happens to Hua Xiaoqiao, maybe they really can't end well.

After all, they all knew how beautiful Granny Deng was when she came back.

The middle-aged man snorted: "The three of you are simple-minded, and you can believe what a little girl says."

He was very worried. Now everyone in the village only saw silver.

Hua Xiaoqiao handed the money bag to the nearest man without any nonsense, and then said: "I didn't lie to you, you can see the money, we just want to get out of here."

The man who got the money bag opened the money bag and took a look inside, and found that there were really three taels of silver and a few copper coins in it, and he became excited. It was the first time he saw so much silver in such a big age.

The man was obviously not stupid and asked: "What if you don't mean what you say when the time comes."

Hua Xiaoqiao shrugged: "It doesn't matter whether you believe me or not, the three of us can't do anything. In fact, you should think that it's best for us to leave now. I guarantee that we won't trouble you after we leave. , please let us go now."

Hua Xiaoqiao's tone was very sincere.

The middle-aged man wanted to say something else. The man with the money bag said: "I trust you, but you must leave all your burdens. As for the money, our people will follow you out to get it."

This made Hua Xiaoqiao feel a lot easier.

Qing'er also promised: "I can guarantee that I will not come back to compete with you for property in the future. In fact, we came back this time to burn paper for grandma, and we just want to stay for two more days."

Speaking of this matter is a bit wronged.

Aunt Liao said in a rough voice, "We will never lie to you if we keep our word."

Men and middle-aged men are only connected because of interests, and now that they have interests, they will naturally choose interests at the first time.
