Chapter 601: Episode 320 People Called Him Out_2
"Are you here to add to the chaos?" Meng Yuhuai glanced at him coolly, "How are we supposed to intervene in this matter? Zhou Qing is Yunyun’s biological father. If Yunyun were still an apprentice, perhaps Xiaomai could say a thing or two, but now that she has completed her apprenticeship, are we not to allow her father to seek another path for her? I thought that if nothing else works, we’d have to pay out of our own pocket to buy Yunyun’s indenture contract and immediately give it back to her, so she wouldn’t enter into servitude, thus it wouldn’t affect her at all—but do you really feel comfortable giving Silver to a man like Zhou Qing?"
Meng’s mother came out with a dish of braised meat and placed it on the table; hearing this, she gave Meng Yuhuai a stern look, as if blaming him for his lack of tact, shook her head, and turned back into the kitchen.
At this, Great Saint burst into laughter and pointed at him: "I always say you’re a straight arrow, always thinking straight, never crooked. Actually, this matter is very simple. I have a solution that is both easy and cheap, but I’m afraid you won’t agree."
Xiaomai’s eyes suddenly lit up, no longer caring about Meng Yuhuai’s reaction, she stared intently at Great Saint and eagerly said, "Great Saint, do you really have a solution?"
"Yes!" Great Saint nodded without hesitation, stood up, and walked out of the hall before motioning Xiaomai over, "Come here, Xiaomai, let me tell you privately, don’t let your man hear."
Xiaomai indeed dropped her chopsticks and rushed over, looking at him full of hope.
"The broker who deals frequently with Zhou Qing, no one else, must be Tian Da from the neighboring village, who whenever they have time, gamble together."
Great Saint said with a chuckle, "Old Man Liu is useless, always bullies the soft and fears the hard. It’s no use appealing to him in this matter. If you trust me, leave this matter to me, we..."
He whispered thus.
Meng Yuhuai restrained himself from joining them, but his ears pricked up. Unfortunately, they were too far away and spoke too softly. After listening for a while, he could only make out the sentence "You have Chun Xi and La Mei, those two chatterboxes ready at hand, aren’t you afraid that things won’t blow up?" He saw Xiaomai nodding happily and couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
