Chapter 112 My Wife, The Eldest Princess (1)(2/2)
Ji Shan looked at Ji Mian deeply, gritted his teeth, and suddenly stepped forward and kicked Ji Mian, knocking Ji Mian to the ground.
"Master Wife! You are so mean!" Ji Shan slammed the door with the wooden box in his arms and ran away.
Ji Mian lay on the ground, looking at the broken roof, sighed, struggled to get up, drank the extremely unpleasant herbs on the side, then dragged the wooden table in the house to the yard with difficulty, and then left
He went to the closet, picked up the only valuable clothes in the house and put them on the table. Finally, he took out a kitchen knife from the kitchen and stuck it hard into the wooden table.
After doing this, Ji Mian felt completely exhausted. She moved a wooden chair, picked up a bamboo fan she picked up from somewhere, and sat behind the wooden table to fan herself.
The scorching sun was shining high in the sky, making Ji Mian's mind feel dizzy and she wanted to go crazy.
If you can't commit suicide, being hacked to death can finally end the world.
The condition of her original body was too bad, so she didn't want to stay and suffer. Once she was killed, she could go directly to reincarnation. After completing so many missions in the Atonement Team, she would be able to be reincarnated into a good child in her next life.
Ji Mian was a science fanatic in the original world. He not only loved to do experiments in the laboratory, but also loved to do experiments at home. The last accidental explosion not only killed him, but also affected the entire residents of the building, killing many people.
Finally, he was thrown into the atonement group to atone for his sins.
After so many years in the Atonement Group, the madman has disappeared, and salted fish has appeared, always wanting to destroy him.
The sound of chaotic footsteps came, mixed with the screams of children.
“Bang——” The courtyard door was kicked open, and seven or eight tall and thick men appeared behind the courtyard door, followed by a group of villagers holding children.
The head steward was neatly dressed, with a smile on his face and the gambling slip in his hand.
"This is the gambling note that Miss Ji signed at my Changle Gambling House last night. It clearly states that she will pledge her wife Ji Shan to the gambling house in exchange for fifty taels. No, Miss Ji lost the bet. We
Come and collect money. If you don’t have money, you have to collect money!”
The surrounding villagers were talking a lot, being surprised at the huge number and insulting Ji Renjian.
"You beast, you have defeated everyone like this! Aren't you afraid that your dead parents will crawl out of the underworld and strangle you to death?"
"The world is so confused! One word of gambling can kill people!"
"It's too bad to mortgage sister Jishan!"
"..."
Ji Shan, who was wearing a straw hat and plastered face, hid behind the crowd and looked at the situation in the yard. He clenched a jade pendant in his hand, rubbed the pattern on it, and stared nervously at the man sitting on a chair fanning himself.
Ji Mian.
The steward stepped forward, glanced at the wooden table in front of Ji Mian, the smile on his lips faded a little, and slapped the gambling receipt on the table: "It's written in black and white, with your signature and palm print. Please don't deny it."
Ji Mian: What does this season’s bet in the world have to do with me, Ji Mian?
Ji Mian raised her eyes, her lips turned white, and she said weakly: "My wife ran away last night, and she must have run away now. You may not be able to catch her back. Now I have two choices for you."
Ji Mian raised two fingers: "Either you take away these expensive clothes of mine and we'll get over this matter; or there's a kitchen knife on the table. If you see which piece of meat on my body is valuable, just chop it off and take it."
."
The steward narrowed his eyes: "Miss Ji, you are a deadbeat. Aren't you afraid of damaging your reputation as a child?"
"brute!"
"Scum!"
"Scum!"
"The prodigal girl!"
As soon as the steward finished speaking, the surrounding villagers roared angrily.
A child who looked to be only seven or eight years old hid behind the adults and screamed: "Kill her!"
Ji Mian shook her bamboo fan and smiled at the steward.
Look, this is it, and you’re still talking to me about reputation?
The steward looked at the clothes on the table coldly and said coldly: "Miss Ji, these old clothes are not worth the fifty taels, but the land in your ancestral house is fine."
Ji Mian shook his head: "Hey, it's a pity that the land deed is not in my hand, otherwise I would have gambled with it. The land deed is in the hands of my uncle who is doing business in the royal city. If you want it, you can find it from me.
Uncle, I heard that he seems to have a good relationship with the Minister of Household Affairs, and he should be doing well. You go to him to ask for the land deed, and by the way, help me ask him for a few hundred taels of silver to give to his niece. I'll spend it."
The steward's face turned dark. He was not frightened. He had to find some face from Ji Renjian today, otherwise how would their gambling house collect debts in the future?
The housekeeper waved his hand: "Go and chop off Ji Renjian's right hand. I'll see how she can take the exams in the future!"
The thugs rolled up their sleeves and walked towards Ji Renjian. One of them took out the kitchen knife stuck on the wooden table and raised it high with a sneer.
The children screamed one after another, and the adults covered the children's eyes and looked at Ji Mian with complicated eyes.
Fifty taels! Not fifty cents! That's too much! They simply can't come up with it! Besides, even if they throw the money into the water, they are not willing to repay Ji Mian's debt.
It's your own fault!
Ji Mian's right hand was pressed down on the wooden table by the thugs. Seeing that the kitchen knife was about to cut off Ji Mian's wrist, a woman stood up.
"stop!"
"Sister Jishan doesn't want it!" a child shouted.
"Confused!" Some adults lamented.
Although Ji Shan was abducted by Ji Renjian as his wife from nowhere, she was kind and kind, and many villagers still liked her.
Ji Mian, who was waiting casually for his hand to be chopped off, heard the words and his eyes suddenly became alert. He looked towards the source of the sound and saw Ji Shan wearing a straw hat and a lot of black ash on his face, looking dirty.
.
Ji Shan walked out and came to the wooden table. He looked at Ji Mian and then looked at the steward. He stretched out his hand and saw a jade pendant lying in his palm.
This jade pendant is only half the size of Ji Shan's hand. It is moist all over. It is engraved with complex unicorn patterns that ordinary people don't know. It is crystal clear and very beautiful.
"This is my family's ancestral jade, it should be far more than fifty taels." Ji Shan said, "If my wife hadn't been in debt, I wouldn't have used it to repay the debt."
The jade pendant looks very beautiful under the sunlight.
The steward's eyes lit up, he took the jade pendant from Ji Shan's hand and handed it to a thug behind him: "Lao Wu, haven't you ever bet on stones before? Come and take a look."
The thug Lao Wu stepped forward, looked at the jade pendant, his eyes widened, and gave a thumbs up: "Steward, good stuff!"
The steward raised his lips when he heard this, stuffed the jade pendant into his waist, handed the gambling receipt on the wooden table to Ji Shan, shook his head and advised kindly: "She can even pay you to the gambling house.
It shows how bad her heart is, do you still want such a wife?"
Ji Shan took the gambling slip, tore up the paper, nodded to the steward and said, "Slow down."
The steward happily left with a group of thugs. The onlookers looked at Ji Shan and sighed repeatedly, lamenting that she was blind and yet she actually ran back to save Ji Renjian.
Ji Shan greeted the villagers who came to persuade her with smiles and finally closed the precarious courtyard door.
Ji Mian looked at Ji Shan, narrowed his eyes and said, "Why are you back?"
Ji Shan didn't say anything and walked straight into the study. There was a sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets. Ji Mian frowned and looked at the study.
Soon, Ji Shan walked out, holding a pen, ink, paper and inkstone in his hand, and placed it on the wooden table in front of Ji Mian.
Chapter completed!
