The daughter of the metaphysical fortune teller: she is the best at eating melons to prolong life

Chapter 67 Open your eyes and tell lies

Hearing the sound, Qiu Shuang turned around and saw that the door of Ding Mansion was closed, and she suddenly became anxious.

"Dad, is my second sister in the Ding residence?"

Wang Youfu dodged his gaze and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Send your second sister to Beiyin Mountain..."

Before he could finish his denial, Tiechui increased his strength with an expressionless face, and Wang Youfu screamed, "Ah, it hurts so much, let me go."

Seeing Wang Youfu's face change in pain, Liu stepped forward anxiously to stop him, "Hey, you girl, let go quickly."

Tiechui only listened to Xie Lan and didn't even look at Liu.

Liu was angry, but she couldn't refute, so she could only signal Qiu Shuang with her eyes to save her father.

Xie Lan didn't say anything either, just watched coldly.

Liu was so confused that if the county lord hadn't invited her over, she wouldn't have bothered to pay attention.

Now it all depends on Qiu Shuang's opinion. If she doesn't want her to get involved, she will turn around and leave immediately. As for her second sister, she can only wish for the best.

Xie Lan was never a saint. Although she wanted to dig melons to collect merits to prolong her life, it was not a good deal. She also didn't know how to do everything. Sometimes, when she helped out of kindness, not everyone would appreciate it.

It is not uncommon for people to take advantage of something and then take a bite out of it.

Qiu Shuang was able to be a second-class maid beside the Shouguang County Lady, so she was certainly not stupid. Without even looking at Liu, she begged Xie Lan sincerely, "Miss, please save my second sister."

Wang Youfu didn't know who Xie Lan was, but seeing that she didn't have the aura of an ordinary person, he didn't dare to offend her.

He just yelled at Qiu Shuang, "You little bitch, you are so rebellious that you dare not even listen to me. Believe it or not, I will break your legs when we get back home."

Qiu Shuang held her neck high, not afraid, "Although you are my father, from the day you sold me to the Prince's Mansion, I have been the county lady's person.

I signed a contract to sell myself. If you dare to touch me, do you believe that the county lady will put you in jail?"

Wang Youfu's face suddenly changed. Naturally, he didn't dare to offend the county lord.

"Dad, did you sell my second sister to the Ding family for a ghost marriage?"

Wang Youfu's wrist was almost crushed, but he couldn't struggle free. Even his daughter came to threaten him, which really made him angry.

Seeing that he was about to grit his teeth and resist, Xie Lan smiled, "You won't say it? Then let's see whether your mouth is hard or your wrist is hard."

"Who are you? It's not your turn to interfere in the affairs of our Wang family. Tell your maid to let me go, or I will sue the authorities."

Tiechui had a cold face. He pinched Wang Youfu's wrist with his left hand and slapped him with his right hand. "How dare anybody call yourself an old man? Why don't you take a piss and see if you are worthy?"

Wang Youfu was almost going crazy. The slap made his teeth loosen and blood came out at the corner of his mouth, but he was unable to resist.

Xie Lan waved his fan and smiled, "Report to the police? By the time they arrive, your hand will have been crippled. You secretly sold your daughter to someone else for a ghost marriage, which is a disregard for human life. Tell me, when the soldiers arrive, will they arrest you or me?"

Wang Youfu was in pain and scared. He couldn't do anything to Xie Lan and could only curse at Liu.

In order to get away, she even cursed Liu, saying that she had fallen in love with another man and that was why she sent someone to kill him and remarry.

Liu didn't dare to offend Xie Lan. She cried and explained, and scolded Qiu Shuang, asking her to save Wang Youfu.

Qiu Shuang knew that she couldn't be soft-hearted, otherwise her second sister would definitely die.

"Dad sold me and my second sister so that I could have money to gamble. It's better to break your hand so that you won't gamble again, or your five-year-old sister will be sold as well." Wang Youfu didn't expect Qiu Shuang to be so heartless. He wanted to strangle her to death, but when he thought about the fact that she had already sold herself to the county lord, he lost his temper.

Qiu Shuang showed no mercy and immediately increased the strength of the hammer.

Wang Youfu was used to being lazy and gluttonous, so he couldn't bear the pain. He was even more afraid that his hand would be crippled.

"I said, I said, Qiuxia was indeed sold to the Ding family."

Aunt Li and the other women who came to watch the fun widened their eyes in surprise. They didn't expect that Qiuxia was really not dead?

Xie Lan, "But sell it to the Ding family for a ghost marriage?"

Wang Youfu was still hesitating when he was hit hard by the hammer, and he was instantly sweating profusely from the pain.

This maid really wanted to cripple his hand, so Wang Youfu dared not hide it.

"Yes, Madam Ding wanted to arrange a ghost marriage for her son, so she gave me five hundred taels to buy my second daughter."

After all, this is Kyoto. In front of everyone, Xie Lan can't just break into someone else's house for no reason.

Now that Wang Youfu had confessed, she immediately signaled to Nanny Chen, "Go knock on the door."

Nanny Chen responded and went forward and knocked on the door a dozen times, but no one came to open it.

Xie Lan glanced at the crowd and said loudly, "The Ding family deceived innocent people and bought girls from good families to bury them alive and arrange ghost marriages for the children in the family. They are so careless about human life. I would like to ask an uncle to help go to the government and report it to the authorities so that they can send someone to deal with it."

Qiu Shuang was smart. She wiped her tears and cried, "My sister is only twelve years old. The Ding family is so unscrupulous that they used a living person for a ghost marriage. They want to force my sister to death."

Seeing Qiu Shuang crying miserably, an enthusiastic uncle was filled with indignation and offered to help report to the police.

At this moment, the tightly closed door of the Ding Mansion creaked open.

A man who looked like a butler stepped out hurriedly, and shouted angrily with a sullen face, "Who are you? How dare you come to our house to make trouble? Leave now, or I will report you to the police."

Tiechui exerted force with his hand, and before Xie Lan could open his mouth, Wang Youfu could not help begging for mercy in pain.

"Butler Ding, I won't sell my daughter anymore. I'll return the banknote to you, and you should return my daughter to me."

Qiu Shuang took a few steps forward and handed over the banknote in her hand, "Butler Ding, this is the five hundred taels you gave to my father. I'm returning it to you now. Please send my second sister out..."

Steward Ding looked sinister, "What nonsense are you talking about? We, the Ding family, have never bought anyone from your family. We, the Ding family, are not a small family. Even if we want to buy a maid, we will find a human trafficker, not someone whose origins we don't know."

Wang Youfu was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that Steward Ding would deny it. He was afraid that the hammer would cripple his hand, but he couldn't help but feel happy. It was fine if the Ding family didn't want to return the girl to him. Wouldn't he be able to keep the five hundred taels?

"Wang Youfu has already admitted that your family bought his daughter, and Steward Ding still dares to lie with his eyes open. If you don't hand her over, don't blame us for forcing our way in."

Butler Ding glared at Xie Lan. Whose family was this girl from? She was so ignorant of her own life.

The two sides were in a stalemate when a shout was heard from afar, "Who are you? How dare you gather together to cause trouble in broad daylight? If you don't disperse quickly, you will all be arrested and thrown into jail."

Seeing that the person who came was actually the commander of the East City Military Division, Steward Ding's face lit up with joy, "Master Dou, these unruly people came to our Ding Mansion to cause trouble and wanted to extort money. I beg you to arrest them and bring them to the Dali Temple for trial, and give our Ding Mansion justice."
