Chapter 167 Chapter 167: Tricking Ms. Zhao's Hairpin

After finishing speaking, they were about to open the door and go in. Several big men looked at each other, seeing that she was not afraid at all, they felt that she was definitely not an ordinary person, so they let her in.

When Ye Li opened the door, he saw Mrs. Zhao and Miss Zhao running around the room like ants on a hot pot.

As soon as Mrs. Zhao saw Ye Li coming in, she immediately greeted her, and said excitedly, "Miss Ye, you are here."

They are used to paying the bill at home when they eat in the capital, but they have never been treated like this.

Even though Mrs. Zhao has seen everything, she is a little scared to meet such an unreasonable big man.

Ye Li ignored Mrs. Zhao, but looked at the table, almost reciting this look.

Well~ Three people ordered a table full of dishes, which is comparable to a full banquet.

If you eat them all, you don’t need to say anything. There are still so many important things left, just put them on the table.

Ye Li pointed at the table and asked expressionlessly: "Is this what you three eat?"

"Can you eat so much?"

Mrs. Zhao felt a little embarrassed when asked by Ye Li. Since they moved away from Ye Li's house, they haven't had a delicious meal. It depends on the Chinese New Year, so the three of them wanted to come to the town to have a meal. Then Cheng wanted to order more when he was excited.

Before Mrs. Zhao could speak, Ms. Zhao replied with a displeased face: "Is this too much? I used to order more than this in the capital."

Seeing that she didn't show any repentance, Ye Li's face darkened, and he said coldly, "Then are you in the capital now?"

"You used to eat in the capital, and you could afford it. Can you afford it now?"

Ms. Zhao was reprimanded by Ye Li, she felt that she was wrong, she even said two things about you, then she turned her head angrily, ignoring Ye Li.

Mrs. Zhao also knew that she was at fault this time, so she didn't help Ms. Zhao. Instead, she said, "It's all our fault this time. We couldn't control it for a while, so we ordered too much."

"Miss Ye, can you redeem us back?"

Ye Li was quite angry at first, but seeing Mrs. Zhao's attitude was so good, it was not good to reprimand them. He turned to look at the big man at the door and asked, "How much do they owe?"

The big man stretched out a finger very arrogantly.

Ye Li asked in disbelief, "100 taels?"

The big man nodded indifferently.

Ye Li had seen the dishes on the table when he came in, except that there were more types of dishes, but they were all worthless things, not worth the price at all.

He looked at Mrs. Zhao and Ms. Zhao again, and saw that they were wearing golden hairpins and brocade clothes, so they knew that they were intentionally slaughtering customers because they knew nothing about Mrs. Zhao and Ms. Zhao.

But they were numerous and powerful, and they were all men, so Ye Li couldn't go head-to-head with them and could only nod in agreement.

It's just that she didn't bring much money with her when she went to the street this time, and after buying so many things, she only had 50 taels of silver left on her.

Turning to look at Mrs. Zhao, she asked in a low voice, "How much money do you have left?"

Mrs. Zhao looked at Ye Li, took out ten taels of silver from her sleeve, and handed it over.

Ye Li couldn't believe it and asked, "Are you only ten taels of silver?"

Madam Zhao nodded embarrassingly.

Ye Li gritted his teeth and said, "How dare you go to a restaurant for dinner with only ten taels of silver left?"

Mrs. Zhao defended in a low voice: "We thought it was cheap to eat in a small place, but we didn't expect it to be so expensive!"

Ye Li knew she was lying as soon as she heard it, ten taels of silver would not be enough for this kind of restaurant anywhere, not to mention they ordered so many dishes.

Thinking that they came together in the morning, plus Xiaocui to find their way, what did Ye Li think and felt that these two girls were plotting against her.

Ye Li took the silver handed over by Mrs. Zhao, and said with a troubled face: "This ten taels of silver is definitely not enough, do you have anything else on you?"

Mrs. Zhao was not happy when she heard this, "We only have this money, do you have it there, can you help us put it on, and I will return it to you when my master comes back."

Ye Li: "Ms. Zhao, what are you talking about? If I have it, I can't take it out, but I only have 20 taels left on me. Adding your ten taels, we are still 70 taels short."

While talking, Ye Li took out 20 taels of silver from his pocket and put it together with Mrs. Zhao's [-] taels.

Seeing the two of them huddling together, several big men couldn't help urging: "Do you have any money, tell me if you don't have any money, don't waste your time."

Ye Li turned his head and said coldly: "Yes, don't rush, let's get together."

Seeing that they only had 30 taels, Mrs. Zhao became a little anxious, and couldn't help but said, "Miss Ye, you are also a princess after all, so this is all you need?"

Ye Li didn't say anything and replied: "My family property has been confiscated by the court, so it would be nice to have so much."

"Do you see that my family eats and dresses like a rich man?"

Mrs. Zhao looked at the clothes of the three mothers, was taken aback for a moment, and asked anxiously: "Then what shall we do?"

Ye Li had already thought of a solution, glanced at Ms. Zhao and said, "That golden hairpin on Ms. Zhao's head should be worth a lot of money, right? Let's press it here first, and redeem it when Mr. Zhao comes back?"

Mrs. Zhao immediately refused after hearing this: "No."

This golden hairpin is her daughter's treasure, otherwise she wouldn't be able to take it with her wherever she went.

Ye Li tugged at Mrs. Zhao and persuaded in a low voice: "This thing is so precious, how can anyone be so precious?"

"Look at these big guys, they're staring at Miss Zhao covetously, just waiting for us to come up with no money!"

After being told by Ye Li, Mrs. Zhao also came to her senses, these people had been staring at her daughter, thinking that her daughter would be taken away by these people if they couldn't raise the money, she panicked.

Turning around, she walked towards Miss Zhao, "Qing'er, give me the hairpin on your head."

Miss Zhao immediately covered her head when she heard this, and asked with a vigilant face, "What do you want me to do with hairpins!"

Mrs. Zhao: "Top account."

Ms. Zhao immediately became unhappy after hearing this, "Why, you don't know how important this thing is to me, I won't give it to you."

Mrs. Zhao went to snatch Ms. Zhao's hairpin while muttering: "Isn't it the crown princess' reward? It's more important than your life. If it's done, you can give it to your mother first. When we return to the capital, what do you want?"

Said that the hairpin on Ms. Zhao's head was in her hand, she turned her head and gave it to Ye Li.

Ye Li walked up to the big man with the golden hairpin and said, "Brother, can we use this hairpin to pay off the debt?"

The big man glanced at the hairpin in Ye Li's hand, and replied disdainfully, "Is your hairpin worth 100 taels?"

Ye Li smiled: "This is not an ordinary hairpin, it is made of pure gold, have you seen the ruby ​​on it? This is only for the royal family."

"Don't talk about 100 taels of silver, even 1000 taels are worth it."
