I traveled through time and space and found a mute boy: That’s enough, I feel sorry for him

The villagers then started to make a fuss, and Ye Shijing was speechless. In the end, he could only compromise and say "I'm sorry".

But he himself actually felt it was quite baffling. He was helping the people from Yichun Tower to catch the runaway guy, he had a contract of sale with an official seal in his pocket, and he was followed by five big men. He must have sounded tough and had a strong presence.

But today, not only did he not get what he wanted, he also got beaten up. Xu Shu was also very dissatisfied with the price and seemed to want to beat him up again.

That would be fine, he just thought Xu Shu was a tough guy who was difficult to deal with.

But it's only been two sentences, how come it was inexplicably his fault and he was asked to apologize?

The outrageous thing is that he actually said sorry. Who did he feel sorry for? He was the one who was indentured to sell himself!

Oh, that’s not right. The indenture is now in Xu Shu’s hands.

But this is just a copy, and I think Xu Shu should know that it is useless to snatch this one.

Seeing Xu Shu staring at the contract, as if he could see something from the paper, Ye Shijing was a little unsure. He pushed the big man next to him and asked him to speak.

These big guys just fought with Xu Shu, and they only suffered superficial injuries, which were not as serious as Ye Shijing's, who vomited blood after being kicked twice by Xu Shu.

Moreover, they had always been arresting and buying people for Yichunlou. When they saw Ye Shijing's gesture, someone quickly stood up and said, "Brother, you are very skilled and brave. It was us who offended you earlier."

"But we are also doing legitimate business in Yichunlou. You have sold your body to Yichunlou, so you belong to Yichunlou. If you force her to stay with you, we have the right to sue you in the government."

"As for the price of redemption, if you think five hundred taels is too expensive, we can still negotiate. Why make things so awkward?"

Xu Shu listened to the man's story without any expression on his face. After the man finished speaking, he said calmly: "I will go to Yichun Tower in three days."

The person who spoke heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this and quickly said it was no problem.

Ye Shijing, who was hiding in the back, frowned, a little dissatisfied. He had discussed with the madam of Yichunlou before coming here, five hundred taels of silver, 28 points. But seeing Xu Shu's stubborn look, it is estimated that the five hundred taels will not be enough...

But he thought about the ruthless nature of the madam and felt that Xu Shu might not get any good results. Moreover, Xu Shu was so self-righteous that he actually took the initiative to propose to go to Yichun Tower to talk. Wasn't he afraid of being drugged and having his hands and feet broken?

Thinking of this, Ye Shijing couldn't help but sneer. He looked at Mu Jinghua, who was protected in Xu Shu's arms with his ears covered, and cursed in his heart: "You are just a cheap bastard, and you think you are a treasure."

After Ye Shijing and the group of big men left, Xu Shu thanked the villagers who were watching. After they had dispersed, he let go of Mu Jinghua: "It's okay. Go inside for a while. Brother Jiang and I have something to say."

Mu Jinghua bit her lip, held back the tears that were about to fall, nodded and went to the main house.

Xu Shu watched him enter the house, then looked at Jiang Xiao and his brothers: "Thanks to you today, I will definitely treat you all to a good meal someday."

Wu Yong cheered from the side: "Just come to the restaurant in my town to eat, don't worry about Xu Shu's money."

The crowd burst into laughter, but Jiang Xiao was a little worried, so he pulled Xu Shu over and asked, "Xu Shu, in three days, are you really going to go to Yichun Tower and talk to the owner in person?"

Xu Shu pretended to be innocent and said, "Yichunlou is doing business. I just went there to say a few words. I won't have my arms and legs chopped off and turned into a human pig, will I?"

"Human pig?" Jiang Xiao had never heard of this thing, so he couldn't help but ask back. He felt that Xu Shu's current attitude was very strange, as if he was planning something big in secret.

Wu Yong only knew this thing, and couldn't help but push Xu Shu: "What are you talking about? Fortunately there are no children here, otherwise they would be scared to tears by you."

Xu Shu glanced at the main house with a gloomy look, and changed the subject with a smile: "It's getting late, why don't you all go home and rest early. As for Wu Yong, you..."

Xu Shu thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you just be bold and stay at Le Ge'er's house."

Wu Yong blushed when he heard this, and he began to stutter: "You, you, you...what are you talking about? We haven't even started dating yet, how can we just go...to his house."

Xu Shu recalled: "I remember that Le Ge'er's family had a gambling brother who was rarely seen throughout the year. There must be an empty room."

"You don't have to worry about Brother Le not being able to make the decision. You have money, so just give his drunkard father a penny and you can stay. If you go now, you might even be able to have Brother Le cook a meal."

When Wu Yong heard this, he was indeed moved. His face no longer blushed and he stopped being shy. He just pulled his driver and walked over there.

Jiang Xiao saw him and said that he had a quick temper.

Xu Shu glanced at Jiang Xiao and thought to himself that you are not much different, so he waved his hand and started to send him away.

The house finally became quiet, and Xu Shucai pushed the door and walked towards the main house.

The boy was sitting at the table, staring at a piece of paper in a daze.

Xu Shu came closer and found that the paper was a poem he had copied when he was teaching children to write: There are many little birds in my heart. I feel so warm when I hold them in my arms. Therefore, I will live forever. Therefore, I can live forever.

Xu Shu called him twice before he came back to his senses and looked at Xu Shu, and saw Xu Shu smiling at him.

So he thought, it was already very warm, so it didn’t matter whether he lived or not.

Since Xu Shu was determined to marry Li Zile and redeem him, not to mention what Li Zile would think, there would definitely be a lot of gossip among the villagers. If they just talked about him, it would be fine, as he was used to being scolded.

But Xu Shu, no.

He thought that he would be upright and of high moral character all his life.

Mu Jinghua gritted his teeth, finally made up his mind, and gestured: "Don't want me."

Xu Shu thought he was asking a rhetorical question, so he said gently, "It's yours, don't be afraid."

Mu Jinghua's determination, which he had made with great difficulty, was destroyed just like that. The seemingly indestructible rock was shattered by Xu Shu's words and shattered into pieces, revealing his endless desire, every bit of which was a wishful thinking.

But he said he wanted me.

Mu Jinghua was absent-minded for a moment, and finally his eyes turned red. He suddenly stood up, hugged Xu Shu's waist tightly, and was reluctant to let go.

He said he wanted me. Mu Jinghua thought, Father, he is the only one who wants me...

Xu Shu was hugged around the waist, but he just thought he was acting like a spoiled brat. He rubbed his head and waited for a long time before saying, "After dinner, I'm going to town. You stay at home and sleep well. I'll be back early the next morning."

Although Xu Shu was a little reluctant to part with Mu Jinghua, who was so clingy, he was unwilling to hand over five hundred taels to Yichunlou. Some things had to be done as soon as possible.

Mu Jinghua was stunned when he heard that, and subconsciously glanced at the horizon. The sun had already set, and Xu Shu was actually going out at night. Night...not coming home at night?

Mu Jinghua pursed his lips slightly, hesitated for a while, nodded, let go of Xu Shu's waist, and gestured: "I'll go cook for you."

Xu Shu smiled and stuffed two candies into his hands, then followed him to the kitchen to help.

After they finished dinner, Xu Shu watched Mu Jinghua go to bed before he felt relieved. He turned around, locked the door, and walked towards the town in the moonlight.
