Folklore: The baby starts the game, and the mother takes off her painted skin

Chapter 69 Do You Really Want Me to Call You Mom? [Seeking Follow-up Reading]

Liu Bai was very sure that the porcelain figure had been placed steadily just now, and he was just worried that it would fall, so he put it in more deliberately.

But even so, the porcelain figure still fell down.

The store owner will claim compensation from him.

This kind of thing... is not uncommon. Not only now, but Liu Bai has even experienced it in his previous life.

At that time, he was traveling to a famous tourist attraction in the country and saw a toy he liked in the store. He picked it up, looked at it, asked the price, and then put it back.

The boss was even more direct, saying that this thing was very valuable and you had to buy it if you touched it.

Otherwise don't touch it.

Liu Bai naturally didn't want to do that at the time and had an argument with his boss, but later the owners of several neighboring stores also came over.

Liu Bai had no choice but to spend more money in vain, because he realized at that time that this place was a family, and it would be useless even if he complained to the scenic area management association.

And now... I never thought that the same thing would happen in this world.

Liu Bai smiled under the mask and asked, "So what do you want?"

"How? Pay the money!"

"You broke my things and you don't want to pay me? That doesn't make sense."

The shop owner who was originally sitting stood up at this moment, looking down at Liu Bai with a very arrogant look.

Liu Bai didn't say anything, but Xiao Cao had already stood up and shouted angrily: "My master had clearly put the things away, and you made them fall down, and you still blame my master, you shameless ugly bastard!"

Perhaps these words hit the store owner's sore spot, and he snorted coldly.

"Where did this black dog come from? It's barking!"

Xiaocao was the best at scolding people. She put her hands on her hips, pointed at the shop owner and started scolding him.

Say something like “You are the only one left in your family tree”, a way of cursing without using any dirty words.

The quarrel here quickly attracted the attention of people nearby, who came to watch the fun, and most people enjoyed it.

Seeing that more and more people were gathering around, the shop owner explained the situation to them in a few words.

What he said was simply that a kid named Liu Bai was looking at things in his shop and then broke his most valuable treasure.

At the end, he shouted a few words to the crowd in a serious manner.

"Whose child is this? Take him back home quickly."

It’s a pity that Mr. Ma and his men don’t seem to be in this area, otherwise they would have come here long ago.

Those who were looking for fun and enjoying the fun also echoed the sentiment.

What he said was nothing more than asking Liu Bai to pay compensation.

Of course, there were also some people who couldn't stand it and pointed at the shop owner and cursed him, saying that he was immoral and had no conscience at all for cheating a child in this way.

The shop owner was not afraid at all. For him, as long as he could catch the Yin Pearl, it was good enough.

When he got tired of being scolded, he pointed at those who scolded him and shouted: "Are you the child's parents? If you are, then pay the money. You just keep saying sarcastic things here all day long. It's not you who are losing money."

As a result, no one would speak up for Liu Bai anymore, and even more people would blame him.

Xiaocao stood on Liu Bai's shoulder and cursed back at them one by one, but there were too many people and it couldn't curse them all. But it didn't admit defeat and just kept saying "just wait," "just wait," and "you will regret it."

Liu Bai patted its little head and signaled it to stop scolding.

Liu Bai raised his head, looked at the shopkeeper who seemed to have him in his grasp, and said seriously: "If you want a green Yin bead, I can compensate you."

The shopkeeper's mind was moved, but when he thought of the ten Yin beads, he immediately changed his words, "What do you mean one Qing bead? I have ten Qing beads!"

If we can call the child's family over, even if the compensation is not ten, at least two or three, that would be good.

There are much more than this green bead.

"So, you really want me to call my family?" Liu Bai said this with some helplessness.

Because he found that he was the same as in his previous life, and he still had no way to face it.

If you fight on your own, you won’t be able to win.

Even if he could beat the ghost in front of him, he couldn't beat the four big families behind the ghost market. As for the compensation, he couldn't afford it even if he chose this path.

So it seems that he can only call his mother, but Liu Bai doesn't want to trouble her... He just arrived in the city today, and he was bullied and had to call his mother. Liu Bai felt that this seemed to bring shame to his mother.

"What else? You can't afford to pay and don't ask your family to pay. What do you want? Are you trying to default on your debt?"

The store owner is still very aggressive.

Liu Bai sighed, and just when he was about to open his mouth to call for his mother, he suddenly found out...

His left wrist seemed to be a little hot.

If I remember correctly, he was wearing a bracelet, which was a gift from Madam Liu.

It was taken from Situ Hong, the eldest daughter of the Situ family, by Madam Liu when they were in Yinmai.

Madam Liu said that whether Situ Hong could light a fire depended on her thought. As long as she smashed the bracelet, she would be able to light a fire.

And now, the bracelet is getting hot.

A series of footsteps were heard behind, and the crowd consciously moved aside, leaving a wide road leading directly to the door of the shop.

Those ghost walkers who were watching the show were already shouting "Hello, Miss Situ". Before Liu Bai turned around, he smelled that slightly familiar fragrance.

Then the woman in the white dress came to Liu Bai. She was not wearing a mask, but still had a veil on her face.

The two men, one tall and one short, looked up at each other. Situ Hong nodded slightly, indicating that the matter should be left to her, without saying much.

Behind her was a man who was about fifty or sixty years old. He was also not wearing a mask. He had a kind face and smiled at Liu Bai.

Granny Ma is gone, so this person should be the ghost sent by the Situ family to protect Situ Hong...Liu Bai guessed.

Seeing this situation, he also knew that the one presiding over this ghost market this time was most likely the Situ family.

When the shopkeeper saw the person coming, he was a little panicked and hurriedly lowered his head and called out, "Hello, Miss Situ."

Situ Hong ignored him and just said, "He damaged your porcelain figurine, so he has to compensate you with ten green Yin beads, right?"

"No, no, no, no need to compensate. No need to compensate." The shopkeeper replied hastily, without any of his previous arrogance.

"It's okay. You said it yourself. If you break someone else's things, you have to pay for it."

After Situ Hong finished speaking, she turned to look at the man behind her, "Uncle Xu."

"Ah."

The man called Xu Bo stepped forward, took out ten green beads and handed them over. The shopkeeper didn't dare to take them. Xu Bo said "Hmm?" and then he took them with trembling hands.

"Okay, now we're clear of this matter, right?" Situ Hong asked.

The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly, "It's settled, it's settled."

"Okay, since we're even now, that's fine." Situ Hong spoke again, "Uncle Xu, kill him."

"okay."

Xu Bo, who originally had a kind smile, grinned, and suddenly a burst of fire surged out of his body, enveloping the shop owner.

The other people who were watching the Yin-walking retreated in fear.

The shop was reduced to ashes under the burning fire without even a scream.

After doing all this, Xu Bo once again obediently returned to Situ Hong's side.

She looked around and said slowly:
"If anyone encounters this kind of person again, you can come to our Red Lantern House, and our Situ family will do justice for you."

The ghost walkers nearby cheered. They originally thought that this child had some connection with the Situ family, so Miss Situ was willing to help him.

But now it seems that Miss Situ is standing up for all the ghost walkers in this ghost market!

And in front of everyone, Situ Hong actually bent down and bowed to the child.

She whispered:

"Your servant Situ Hong greets you, sir."

The originally bustling crowd suddenly quieted down.
