Volume 1: The Human World: Phoenix Rising in Fire Chapter 102 Selling a Daughter for Fame (5)
Mo Qingtian waved his hand, and Aunt Shui came out with Hua Xi.
"Aunt, why do you want to buy clothes?" Hua Xi asked naively.
"Because your father loves you." Knowing that she would be a stepping stone for her daughter, Aunt Shui treated her kindly, "You also know that your elder sister stole the Zhuanling Pill , and your father was angry. He thought that you and Qianyu were better, so he was nicer to you!"
"So that's how it is." Hua Xi suddenly said, "Aunt, don't be angry about what happened to my second sister. It was all because of that bastard Jiang Shijie. He got his comeuppance!"
Aunt Shui's charming look changed and she became a little angry.
Although Qianyu would soon become the Crown Prince's wife of Prince Pingnan, the news had spread to everyone in Galan City, and she could not look at her with dignity when she went out.
"Don't mention this matter anymore." Aunt Shui said coldly, "Go back and heal your wounds quickly, eat more good food, and make yourself beautiful!"
"I understand." Hua Xi nodded.
"In a few days, I will take you and Qianyu out to buy things." Aunt Shui said and left.
It was getting late, night was gradually falling, and the stars in the sky began to light up one by one.
Hua Xi walked back to Luofengju, thinking about what had just happened, and just found it funny.
Mo Qingtian, ah Mo Qingtian, it would be unreasonable if God didn't punish you for being such a person!
Ling'er stood at the door of Luofengju and looked around. Finally, she saw her and ran up. Her eyes were swollen like walnuts from crying.
"Why are you crying?" Hua Xi's face turned cold. "Have you told your mother what you just heard?"
"No!" Ling'er shook her head quickly, tears rolling down her cheeks. "Madam is not in good health . She must be very angry when she heard about this..."
"That's good." Hua Xi raised her head and wiped Ling'er's tears. She was really afraid of seeing people cry, and she was clumsy at comforting them.
"Miss, what should we do? Why don't we go and ask the master for help?" Ling'er cried at a loss, hoping that the young lady could find a way to solve the problem.
Hua Xi took her hand and walked in slowly. She saw that the light was on in Dugu Feng's room and she was sitting under the window doing embroidery.
The candlelight casts silhouettes on the window paper, quiet and beautiful.
Hua Xi smiled and said, "Instead of asking him, it's better to ask God for help."
"Miss, it's already this hour and you're still joking!" Ling'er wiped her tears.
"What can we do? If it rains, it will rain. If the father wants to sell his daughter, who can stop it?" Hua Xi said calmly.
"Is there really no way? Miss, the King of Pingnan is almost eighty years old, and his character is exactly the same as Jiang Shijie!" Ling'er said angrily.
Hua Xi pursed his lips and said after a moment: "I have 500,000 gold coins. Take them and quietly go outside the city to find a house. It doesn't have to be too big, but it's better to be in a secret location."
Ling'er was stunned, two tears rolled down her cheeks, "Five, five hundred thousand... gold coins?"
"Yeah." Hua Xi nodded. Does it matter?
"Where did you get so much money, young lady?" Five hundred thousand gold coins! That's a huge sum!
Hua Xi wanted to say that he got it from Luo Gang, but after thinking it over, he decided not to scare this silly girl.
Besides, as a spell caster, is 500,000 gold coins a lot of money?
"It's all money anyway, what does it matter?" Hua Xi said.
"Can……"
Ling'er wanted to say something, but then Si Xi came out from Dugu Feng's room and said with a smile, "What are you two whispering about standing in the yard? Ling'er, are you being naughty again?"
