Chapter 16 Show them the golden beads
Webster was stunned.
Immediately, a trace of sadness and anger appeared on her face.
After all, someone stood up for the Ye family.
When her husband died, her tears dried up.
When her eldest son died, her heart was numb.
Down here, we live in hardship and fear every day.
I was afraid that one day I would hear the news of the death of my youngest son Ye Yongye.
Finally, someone stood up for the Ye family.
Soon, Webster showed her feminine demeanor.
Calmly directed the three porters to put things into the kitchen.
Then, start cooking.
Lin Yong gave the three porters some broken silver, which was higher than the price Ye Yongye originally said.
The three porters left happily.
Within an hour, Webster had prepared a sumptuous meal.
It was brought to the table in the living room.
Lin Yong was also hungry, so he picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
Webster watched quietly.
Lin Yong looked at Webster and said, "Auntie, you should eat too."
Wei looked at Lin Yong and said, "Xia Shi Lin, if you lose, we, the direct descendants of the Ye family, will have nothing to do. I will commit suicide when the time comes and I will never drag you down. You don't have to worry."
"If, I say if, you can run away with Ye'er, I will be very grateful. Of course, if you can't take Ye'er with you, if you can run away, just run away."
Webster had no hope at heart.
Zheng Huxiao is so awesome.
In the past ten years, I have never lost.
Lin Yong looked at Webster blankly and said, "Auntie, I still have a chance to win. You don't have to be too hopeless."
Webster smiled and nodded, "I don't have any skills as a woman, I just know how to cook and do housework. I will take care of your daily life in the past few days. You should prepare carefully for the competition."
Lin Yong nodded.
What surprised Webster was that Lin Yong's appetite was probably too big.
She ate a little bit of food, and the rest fell into Lin Yong's belly.
After eating, Lin Yong entered Ye Yongye's bedroom and continued to study how to use spiritual energy.
"Uncle, that man went out once today. He went to Li's delicatessen shop and gave him one tael of silver. He also went to Zhang's steamed stuffed bun shop and gave him three hundred copper coins."
"Uncle, that man looks very leisurely. He went shopping and bought some snacks to eat."
"Uncle, that person is either bored in the house or standing in the yard meditating. He is doing some very strange actions."
"Uncle, Webster cooks a lot of food every day. He looks thin, but he has a big appetite. He eats a lot every day."
"Uncle, that man went out today and gave a penny to a beggar on the street."
Zheng Huxiao nodded and waved the servant to leave.
Zheng Huxiao naturally asked people to spy on Lin Yong. I was afraid that Lin Yong would run away.
Lin Yong also knew that he felt aggrieved, but he didn't care.
Now is not the time to face Zheng Huxiao head-on.
Lin Yong has been working hard these days to practice using spiritual energy.
Finally, the tenth day came.
Lin Yong got up when he heard the chirping of the bird.
People in this country and this city, if no special instructions are given, will basically hold the competition at noon.
Lin Yong got up a little early.
Lin Yong felt a little excited, a little excited, and a little nervous.
Anyone facing a powerful opponent like Zheng Huxiao would be a little nervous.
Lin Yong walked around the cramped yard.
The yard is small but very clean. Webster is a hard-working man.
Lin Yong had only walked two rounds when Webster called Lin Yong to eat.
Today's meal is very rich.
There are vegetables, meat, and fragrant rice.
Logically speaking, porridge is usually eaten in the morning.
However, Webster made real rice.
Lin Yong picked up the chopsticks and started to eat hungrily.
After eating, he was about to go to the eastern suburbs as agreed, when he saw Wei Shi dressed neatly, with a complicated spring bun, and holding a baggage in his hand, "Xia Shi Lin, I will go with you."
Lin Yong was stunned, "It's still a bit dangerous."
Webster smiled, "Have I not experienced enough danger?"
What Lin Yong didn't know was that there was only one thing in Webster's baggage, which was a dagger.
She brought it from her natal family to the Ye family.
She was prepared. If Lin Yong lost, she would commit suicide. She would never drag down Lin Yong or her son.
The two of them went out one after another, and the door was not even locked.
If we win today, everything will be easy to say.
If you lose, you will lose your life. Who cares about such a small yard?
When the two arrived, many people had already arrived.
Although Zheng Huxiao hasn't arrived yet, his family's nursing home and servants have already surrounded the place.
Lin Yong looked calm.
As long as Zheng Huxiao can be killed, these slaves and the guards will have nothing to fear.
Naturally, many people heard about this and came to see the fun.
They were both a little surprised when they saw Lin Yong and Webster.
Many people thought that Lin Yong or Webster would escape.
Lin Yong stood there leisurely and contentedly. Webster's hands were trembling slightly, but his expression was calm.
Just before noon, a large, four-horse carriage galloped over.
The carriage stopped and Zheng Huxiao got out of the carriage.
Then, two slaves pulled out the bound Ye Yongye from the car.
Lin Yong smiled when he saw Ye Yongye.
Ye Yongye didn't seem to be beaten or tortured.
Webster's body trembled slightly when he saw Ye Yongye.
Ye Yongye smiled at Lin Yong and then at Wei Shi.
Ye Yongye walked to Lin Yong's side.
Lin Yong easily pulled the rope off Ye Yongye's body.
Zheng Huxiao didn't stop him either.
After all, these people will die today.
As long as you get the golden beads, you don't have to worry about other things.
Zheng Huxiao stepped forward, "Okay, take out the golden beads. I want to see them anyway."
Ye Yongye spoke, "If you win, you can get the golden beads. What if I win?"
Zheng Huxiao laughed "haha", and Zheng Huxiao's guards and slaves also laughed "haha".
"I was beaten so hard by the uncle a few days ago that I vomited blood. I actually want to win against him. It's so funny."
"It's really funny that someone so thin and thin, unable to carry his shoulders or lift his hands, would say such big words."
"I was not my opponent ten days ago, and I will certainly not be my opponent ten days from now. Do you really think you are a god if you want to win against me?"
Zheng Huxiao was generous and said loudly, "Let me make it clear today. If I win this person, he will give me the gold beads. If this person wins me, the Zheng family's house, wealth, slaves, everything will belong to him."
Lin Yong smiled, this Zheng Huxiao was really a bachelor.
However, if Zheng Huxiao really loses, he will not be able to keep these things.
The four people in this place are all people who can clearly understand reality.
Ye Yongye is like that, Webster is like that, Lin Yong is like that, and so is Zheng Huxiao.
Lin Yong patted Ye Yongye on the shoulder and said, "Ye Yongye, show this person your family's ancestral gold-engraved beads and show them to everyone."
Ye Yongye nodded.
