BXBX NOVEL Chapter 95 - [Bonus ]
Yu Dong who watched what Zhou Ming just did realise that this mer was not a fool either. He was giving a chance to Zhu Qian to choose his faith if Zhu Qian was smart he would understand what Zhou Ming was offering him.
Zhu Qian of course understood what Zhou Ming was telling him. He looked at his wife whose mouth was bleeding and her leg seemed to have been twisted at an odd angle in the scuffle, then he turned to look at the carriage where he could see his daughter sleeping with a peaceful expression on her face. And his determination that was wavering finally solidified, though he was full of doubts regarding his future, and he didn\'t know whether he would be able to provide treatment to his wife or daughter, he wished to die with a smile on his face rather than being forced to swallow all the molestation he had to suffer. So he swallowed his saliva and looked at mommy Jiang hard before speaking " I want to leave, with my wife and daughter. I wish to get my family\'s freedom, master please if you can please terminate our slavery contract with mommy Jiang. She lied to us, saying that it was all because of formality and that she just wanted to help my family because my wife saved help from drowning once - this repayment, I\'m afraid I can\'t take it"
There hasn\'t been a day when Zhu Qian didn\'t blame himself for being so stupid as to trust Mommy Jiang and signing the contract. Because he and his wife were on the end of the line they agreed to mommy Jiang\'s suggestion. Never did they expect that even though Mommy Jiang\'s life was saved by Lang, she would still stab them so hard in their backs..
When Zhou Ming heard that mommy Jiang backstabbed this family despite owning them such a big debt, his eyes turned cold and he frostily looked at Mommy Jiang, he couldn\'t believe that someone could be this vicious to their own Live saver! He glared at Mommy Jiang and sneered " you heard him right? Then what are you waiting for? I have never seen such a person, to repay ones gratitude with betrayal - Sha\'er you better keep an eye open who knows she might backstab you someday too!
" No, No.., I wouldn\'t dare! I wouldn\'t " Mommy Jiang felt her back getting soaked even though the weather was nowhere that hot. She immediately kneeled in front of Zhou Ming and kowtowed, cursing Zhou Ming to die a horrible death and hoping that her brother gives birth to a daughter instead of a mer, that might teach this arrogant little shit a good lesson! But no matter what was going on in her head, she didn\'t stop kowtowing, as she apologised " wait for a second, Br- no, Master Zhou. Give me a moment, Just listen to me I will return their contract and cancel it out but - but who will buy them after this? At least with me here, they can get three meals a day, if they leave then how will they eat and where will they go?"
Zhou Ming frowned, that was indeed a problem. After working in a brothel no one would accept a mer to work for them and the wife of this mer was clearly too hurt to work for the next few weeks. Or maybe months - this, should he take them in ?
However, before he could say anything and put his suggestion forward. The taciturn Yu Dong who was standing by his side, raised her hand as she spoke " I will take them, I was here searching for someone to work in my house. So I will buy them from you at the same price you bought their lives? Will that be okay?"
Mommy Jiang hated Yu Dong the most here, if not for this woman who jumped in, she could have gotten away with this. But no this girl had to play a superhero!
Zhou Ming of course noticed the glare that she was directing towards Yu Dong who saved a young girl and was even willing to take three strangers despite being so poor that she was wearing old cotton clothes with patchwork, he narrowed his eyes and then stood in front of Yu Dong like a daddy hen " what are you staring at? From now on this girl is another my wing - if I hear that you even try to harm a single strand of her hair, I will throw you in the Yamen and see how you like serving others!"
Mommy Jiang couldn\'t say anything at this point, she continued to kowtow sincerely hoping for a girl to be born out of her brother\'s womb, her heart was dripping with blood at the thought of losing Zhu Qian this soft and petite good looking mer. She was banking on her luck to have a taste of him before selling him off but looks like all her plans will result in nothing - so she hurriedly asked someone to bring the slavery contract of the Lang family and then sold the husband and wife pair to Yu Dong together with their daughter all for twenty taels.
Yu Dong who bought three human lives for just three taels felt her lips twitch, just this much? This petty miser of a woman only paid this couple twenty taels? Even three goats were expensive than this!
" do you have nothing to say?" asked Zhou Ming as he looked at his wife who was still glaring at Mommy Jiang.
Qiao Sha heard him and immediately took out a hundred silver taels as she handed it to Zhu Qian " this is my fault, I was negligent and caused such a tragedy I can\'t do much but I will pay for the medical expenses of your family and don\'t worry from now on this woman will never trouble you. I promise you that " then she turned to Yu Dong and smiled " you did a good job saving the little girl, I didn\'t know that you know martial arts"
Opsie looks like she made a mistake, Yu Dong put the new life contracts in her sleeves and smiled " it\'s nothing just a little as I need to hunt "
" wait you two know each other?" asked Zhou Ming before Qiao Sha could say anything else.
Seeing that her husband asked this question, Qiao Sha readily replied " Dong Dong is the one who hunted the deer pelt that you liked so much, she is really a great hunter !"
Zhou Ming\'s eyes widened when he heard that, he really did like those pelts and wanted to know who that legendary hunter was who could make animals fur so soft as the one he had, never did he think he would meet the master like this. He was so excited that he grasped Yu Dong\'s hands and called out " master !"
Yu Dong "..."
Qiao Sha "...." what to do? My husband was snatched by Dong Dong?
