"Miss Ling, if I told you, would you really give me this piece of jade?"

Ling Chu could tell at a glance that Grandma Wang was moved.

It seems that Duke Zhao's mansion really has a secret. She really found the right person when she came to see Grandma Wang.

"Whether I will give it to you depends on what you said and whether it is worth the price of this jade."

Grandma Wang hesitated again. She was not sure whether what she was talking about was worth the price.

What if she told her secret and regretted it?

Ling Chu couldn't tell what she was thinking and deliberately glanced at Hu Batian and the thugs next to him. "Mother Wang, if you want to speak, hurry up, otherwise Hu Batian may not be able to wait any longer."

Hu Batian was paying attention here, and when he heard her words, the flesh on his face twitched.

He wanted to say that he didn't mind waiting.

After all, he was also very moved by that piece of jade.

He was hoping that Grandma Wang could get the jade to pay off the debt, so that he could use the jade to please Tao Cheng, the chief steward of Changlefang.

When Grandma Wang saw Hu Batian and the thugs glaring at her fiercely, she couldn't help but tremble in her heart. When she saw her unconscious son again, she finally gritted her teeth and felt her heart pound.

Chao Lingchu came closer and said quickly in a low and inaudible voice, "Our prince not only likes women, he also likes men."

Hearing what Grandma Wang said, Ling Chu felt extremely sick.

Then Zhao Jingming looks like a human, but he is a man of both genders?

She felt that her ears were contaminated and she would have to wash them thoroughly after returning.

"Does grandma know who he likes?"

What Ling Chu asked was not Guo Rong, but who was the man Zhao Jingming liked.

It's a pity that Grandma Wang doesn't know about it, "I only know that the prince sometimes secretly goes to visit the tavern. I know this accidentally. I hope the girl will never tell anyone."

Ling Chu glanced at Grandma Wang and did not respond to her words, "Do you have anything else to say, Grandma? This matter is not worth my piece of jade."

Grandma Wang immediately became anxious, "How can you keep your words..."

Ling Chu interrupted her rudely, "When did I stop keeping my words? I said it from the beginning, whether I will give you that piece of jade depends on what you said and whether it is worth the price of the piece of jade." .

Rather than argue with me about this, Mammy should think about it carefully, but there is other news that can be exchanged for money. "

Grandma Wang was angry and resentful. Unexpectedly, what she was most worried about happened.

Although she was angry, she still wanted Ling Chu to give her more money to save her son, so she had no choice but to suppress her anger.

I racked my brains and thought about it, but I didn't think of anything else that could be exchanged for money.

Although she was in charge of the warehouse in Zhao Guogong's mansion, she was only a small steward of the inner house. She had no access to important things.

Regarding Zhao Jingming, she still listened to what another steward said.

"Since Mammy has nothing else to say, I can't give you this piece of jade. Considering what you just said, mama, use this bank note to pay off your debt." Ling Chu put away the jade with an expressionless expression. , took out a banknote and handed it over.

Grandma Wang stared at the 100 taels, wishing she could rush over and strangle her to death.

This is to treat her like a beggar.

"Miss Ling, the secret I just told you is worth not only 1 taels, but at least [-] taels!"

Ling Chu sneered. If it weren't for the fact that he could use it, she wouldn't even give him five cents, let alone five thousand.Hu Batian waited for a long time, but he didn't expect that Grandma Wang would not be able to get the piece of jade.

In anger, he immediately asked the thugs who followed him to drag Feng Lai to the ground.

The thugs moved roughly, and perhaps they touched Feng Laishun's severed finger, and the excruciating pain caused him to wake up from his coma.

As soon as he opened his eyes and saw the thugs coming to catch him, he immediately started crying in fear.

People living nearby had already noticed the commotion at Grandma Wang's house. In addition, Feng Laishun was crying and howling loudly, and some people outside the door were curiously poking their heads.

Feng Youzhong stood outside the crowd with a sullen face, his fists clenched tightly, and the veins on the back of his hands protruded ferociously.

Seeing the thugs pressing down on Feng Laishun, the thug who had chopped off a finger raised his dagger again.

Grandma Wang was like crazy and wanted to rush forward to stop her.

Feng Youzhong, who couldn't bear it anymore, quickly squeezed out of the crowd, rushed into the courtyard and shouted, "Stop."

Seeing him, Grandma Wang was surprised and happy.His lips moved, but he didn't dare to speak.

Feng Youzhong didn't look at her, but took out a few banknotes from his arms and handed them over, "I still have some money here, Mr. Hu, take it first. Please be patient with the rest. When you have enough money, I will return it to you as soon as possible." .”

Hu Batian reached out to take the banknote, opened it and took a look, his face turned cold, "300 taels, you send it to the beggar. Feng Laishun owes 780 taels. This little money of yours is not even enough for a change."

Of course Feng Youzhong didn't know enough, but this was all the money he could get.

Outside the crowd, Feng Youzhong's wife Wu was furious. She didn't expect that the head of the family would use all the family money to repay Wang's son's gambling debt.

That's a bottomless pit. Once the banknote is given out, don't expect Mrs. Wang and her son to have the money to pay it back.

Feng Youzhong was still nodding and bowing to Hu Batian with an apologetic smile, wanting to ask him to be more tolerant.

Wu ran into the yard angrily, "Master, are you crazy? You used all the money at home to pay off gambling debts to outsiders, so what can I eat and drink with my two daughters?"

Ling Chu shook his head. It seemed that Wu was another poor person who was betrayed by his own man without knowing it.

Feng Laishun might have been aroused by the word "outsider", fearing that Wu would force Feng Youzhong to take the banknote back.

"Dad, dad, save me quickly, I don't want my hands to be chopped off, I don't want to become a cripple..."

As soon as Feng Laishun's cry for help came out, everyone inside and outside the courtyard widened their eyes.

Feng Laishun was so frightened that although Feng Youzhong was also named Feng, he was not his father.

Grandma Wang's vision went dark. At this moment, she really wanted to sew her son's mouth shut with needle and thread.

Feng Youzhong was originally smiling apologetically at Hu Batian, but Feng Laishun's "Dad" made the smile on his face suddenly stiffen.

Ling Chu suddenly laughed, Feng Laishun's shouting "Daddy" was really good.

She was originally worried about how to expose his identity, but she didn't expect that he would do it on his own.

Wu frowned and stared at Feng Laishun.

After a long while, he glanced at Wang, and then looked at Feng Youzhong suspiciously.

Grandma Wang felt uneasy at her sight, and she didn't dare to look at Mrs. Wang at all.

Seeing her guilty look, the anger in Wang's heart suddenly shot from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.
