Chapter 181 A Living Person Can Be Killed by Holding Urine
"Isn't it time for Master Li to fulfill his promise?" Qu Jingyao was overjoyed, with the corners of her lips curved up, revealing a sly gloating look.
Even Ling'er beside her began to raise her eyebrows and smile triumphantly.
People around started talking about it, saying that this girl was really lucky.
Mr. Li's face was so dark that ink seemed to be dripping out.
Suddenly, a voice came from the crowd: "This young man is very dignified and looks no ordinary person. How could he refuse the girl's bet? Right!"
Qu Jingyao scanned the crowd and saw that the person who spoke was the one from the inn...
Because of what he said, Master Li was framed by everyone. For the sake of his face, he could not deny it. He secretly hated the nosy person.
I scanned the crowd but couldn't find the person who had just spoken.
At Qu Jingyao's urging, Master Li called his followers back to the mansion to get the silver.
In the crowd, Mo Hanchuan saw Qu Jingyao looking at him, smiled and nodded, but was met with a roll of her eyes from her.
Mo Hanchuan touched the tip of his nose in confusion.
"Cousin, look at her, she doesn't know how to be grateful at all. If it weren't for you, how could she have gotten it so easily..."
Qingyan glanced at Qu Jingyao and spoke coldly, but was interrupted by Mo Hanchuan.
Many people came forward to express their desire to buy the jade and jadeite in Qu Jingyao's hands, but she refused them all. Even the owner of the gambling stone shop wanted to buy them.
"Girl, you are still too young and don't understand the ways of the world. Wouldn't it be nice for you to hold the silver?"
"Yes, you should know that it will be difficult for you to leave Bianliang City with these."
Qu Jingyao tilted her head and looked at the few people. Those hypocritical and greedy faces made people sick.
"Hehe... Do you think I'm scared?"
Those people were a little embarrassed by what they heard and started to speculate about Qu Jingyao's identity. However, there was no one with the surname Qu among the most prestigious people in Bianliang City. They thought that this little girl was just bluffing.
At this time, Xiaohuo on Qu Jingyao's shoulder stood up with his teeth bared, staring at the people around him with a pair of eyes that were shining with a dim light.
"Oh my god? It's actually a living fox, and a fire fox!"
"This little girl is from quite a prominent family!"
When Master Li heard the discussions among the people around him, a trace of suspicion flashed across his face, and he looked at Qu Jingyao suspiciously.
Could it be that she really comes from some royal family?
"Master, Master, I've got it, I've got it."
Watching the servant squeeze into the crowd and run to his master panting.
"Miss Li, I'm willing to accept the loss. Here's one thousand taels of gold, and I'll also pay for the silver for the raw stone."
The corners of his lips curled up, and a hint of gloating flashed in his eyes. Let's see how these two weak women can carry the one thousand taels of gold and five pieces of jade out of the gambling stone shop!
Qu Jingyao's green jade fingers touched the brocade box. A thousand taels of gold were enough to stump her. What a joke!
Ling'er looked at the very valuable items in front of her with some embarrassment.
"If you trust me, how about having my subordinates send you back? We happen to be going the same way."
Mo Hanchuan's voice was magnetic, and his thin lips curved into a curve.
Qu Jingyao said coldly: "It's not on the way."
"You are such an ungrateful woman. My cousin wanted to send you back with good intentions, but you are so..."
Qingyan looked at her arrogant look and became furious. She pointed at her and yelled at her.
"Why should my master agree to your request?" Ling'er retorted directly.
Qu Jingyao then took out a gold ingot and shouted to the crowd, "Two strong men, come and help me carry these back. Then this gold ingot will be theirs."
As soon as she said this, many voices came from all around, rushing to help.
Finally, Qu Jingyao ordered three people to follow Ling'er and carry the things and walk out of the gambling stone shop.
Mo Hanchuan looked at Qu Jingyao, a girl with unique personality, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, and walked out of the shop waving a folding fan.
"Cousin, wait for me..."
Qingyan stomped her feet in frustration, and hurriedly pushed away the smelly men around her and chased after her.
Qujing Yaomei stopped and walked straight towards the shop she bought.
The four people following behind were panting heavily due to exhaustion.
Soon, several people pushed the door and walked into the lobby. The three put down their things, looked at the empty shop, and muttered in confusion, "Wasn't this shop sold a few days ago?"
It seems that this girl is the buyer.
"This one is yours."
Qu Jingyao threw a gold ingot at the three people.
Several people happily accepted it, nodded and bowed to express their gratitude, then turned around and ran outside.
Song Yunshan hurried over with a few servants.
"Master, you are back. What is this?"
"Dad, these are what the master won from gambling on stones."
As soon as Ling'er finished speaking, Xu came in. She just heard what she said, walked up to her, twisted her ear and started scolding her.
"I told you to go out for a walk with the master, but why did you take the master to gamble on stones? Don't you know..."
"Are you okay? Let's send the things to the back first. Uncle Song, please close the front door and gather everyone in the back."
After Qu Jingyao finished speaking, she walked towards the yard behind.
Song Yunshan glared at her daughter and called her son to bring everyone to the yard.
The couple took their two children and moved the things to the master's house in the back.
Fortunately, it had just been cleaned and the bedding was new.
"Master, have some tea." Qu Jingyao looked at the girl walking over with a teacup and nodded slightly.
Seeing everyone coming over, the woman retreated back to the team.
"Master, everyone is here."
"No matter what your names were before, from now on they will be Qiu'er, Ling'er, Qinglin, Qinggu, Changfeng, Nanfeng, Uncle Song, and Aunt Xu."
Several people knelt down at once: "Thank you, Master, for the name."
Qu Jingyao waved her hand to let them get up. From now on, except for Ling'er who would stay with her temporarily, the rest of them would stay in the shop. Aunt Xu and Qiu'er would be left to them to prepare daily meals. Uncle Song would go find suitable craftsmen to repair the shop, and Qinglin and others would go find a carpenter to make the counters and other things needed in the shop.
Qinggu went to customize a plaque, and the shop would be called: Jiu Linglong!
"I obey your command and will do it right away."
After that, several people turned around and left. Mrs. Xu told her master about some of the things she had just bought, and also bought 100 kilograms of grain each.
The bedding is all new.
"Master, I just took the initiative and bought some cloth. I thought these people would also like to change into clothes with our house's logo, so I thought we would sew them ourselves."
"Can!"
Qu Jingyao gave another 1,000 taels of silver notes to Mrs. Xu, which were used for recent expenses and work. Sometimes she might not be around, so she simply gave them to her in advance for safekeeping.
"Thank you for your trust, Master. I will take good care of it."
After she finished speaking, she took Ling'er and walked towards her own yard.
