Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“You broke into the Liu family’s house and caused a ruckus in the courtyard. Although you didn’t break anything in my house, you ruined the floor tiles in my house. Pay us 1 tael of silver.”
The three Lin siblings heaved a sigh of relief.
The floor tiles in the Liu family’s courtyard were firmly embedded. Although they did exert force, they would not have broken or loosened the floor tiles.
Although one tael of silver was not a small amount, it was probably worth it to settle this matter.
“And…”
They became anxious again when they heard her continue.
“You scared my mother. So you have to pay 10 taels of silver per person for emotional damage!” Lin Xiaoyue suddenly said.
The three Lin siblings’ hearts trembled.
What? 10 taels per person?
Wasn’t Liu Shi fine? She wanted them to pay 30 taels in total? Why didn’t she just rob them?
But no matter how angry they were, no one dared to say anything.
Hei Gang and his subordinates were amused.
Hei Gang admired Lin Xiaoyue even more.
As expected of his sister. She was really bold.
Lin Xiaoyue glanced at First and Second Uncle Lin and smiled.
That’s right, I’m robbing you. What can you do to me?
“Pay us a total of 31 taels of silver. We’ll consider today’s matter settled.” Lin Xiaoyue said.
Second Uncle Lin looked at his brother with a bitter face, hoping that he would make a decision.
First Uncle Lin was conflicted.
After a while, he looked at Lin Xiaoyue.
“I…We really don’t have so much money!” He said to Lin Xiaoyue with a bitter face.
Lin Xiaoyue gazed at him coldly.
“And you dare to cause trouble?” She said sarcastically.
“My mother’s body is weak. How much herbal soup does she need to drink after the scare? 30 taels is considered cheap!”
First Uncle Lin trembled.
At the same time, Second Uncle Lin tugged at his sleeve.
Just pay her! They wouldn’t be able to leave if they kept provoking her.
First Uncle Lin looked back at his brother and gritted his teeth.
Finally, he turned to Lin Xiaoyue and said, “alright! I..we’ll pay!”
Lin Xiaoyue’s expression became better.
“But…w-we have to go back and get it.”
Lin Xiaoyue glanced at him. “They’ll stay behind. You go back and get the money.”
Second Uncle Lin panicked and looked at Lin Xiaoyue.
Seeing Lin Xiaoyue’s cold expression, he did not dare to speak.
Thus, he looked at his brother.
“You can’t leave me here,” he sounded like he was about to cry.
He was afraid. He was afraid that his eldest brother and family would ignore him and his youngest sister.
30 taels of silver was not a small amount.
First Uncle Lin patted his shoulder and comforted him, “don’t worry, I’ll go back and get the money from mother. I’ll definitely pay the ransom.”
Hei Gang and the others were speechless.
Are they kidnappers now?
“Li Da, you follow him,” Hei Gang suddenly said.
He didn’t think he would dare to run away, but sending someone to follow him could save a lot of time.
“Yes, sir!” A subordinate beside Hei Gang immediately cupped his fists and replied.
Then, he walked straight to the terrified First Uncle Lin and pulled him out.
Seeing that, Second Uncle Lin heaved a sigh of relief.
With Master Hei’s man following him, he would definitely come back.
Next, Lin Xiaoyue invited Hei Gang and the others to sit under a big tree in the courtyard.
Then, she cut a bowl of cold cakes for each of them..
