After dying early, I traveled to ancient times and became a boy
Chapter 27: Buying a Mute
"Hahaha..." Ye Xunqing laughed so hard his stomach hurt after hearing this. "You're stupid, don't treat others as stupid as you! He's in such a bad condition, and you're still asking people to spend three taels of silver to buy him. It might cost a lot of money to treat him after he's bought back. Wouldn't it be better to use that money to buy a healthier brother?"
"I won't buy it. I have a wife." Feng Jingheng held Ye Xunqing in his arms. "I listen to my wife."
Ye Xunqing was very pleased. He said, "Ah Heng, let's just watch from the side and see how much money this trafficker can get in the end."
"I don't think he will be able to sell it in the end," said Feng Jingheng.
Ye Xunqing argued with him, "I think he can only receive one or two taels of silver at most."
"Then I'll also guess one or two taels of silver." Feng Jingheng said following Ye Xunqing.
The trafficker got angry and said, "If you don't want to buy it, get out!"
"Hmm..." Ye Xunqing thought for a moment and said, "The family still needs a toilet picker. Why don't we buy him and go back to pick the toilet. But I don't want to spend so much money. Eight hundred wen, if it works, then it works. If not, then we can go."
"Are you dreaming? I bought you for two taels of silver, and you want to buy you from me for such a small amount of money?" The human trafficker refused.
"Oh, then let's just continue watching." Ye Xunqing sat aside, not in a hurry at all.
At this moment, the poor guy suddenly fell down. He squinted his eyes and looked at Ye Xunqing, as if asking him for help.
"Oh, it looks like it's dead." Ye Xunqing took a look and said to Feng Jingheng, "It's boring. If it's dead, it can't be sold for 800 wen. Let's go."
The trafficker touched the boy's nose and saw that he was indeed not feeling well, so he said, "Eight hundred coins is eight hundred coins. Give me the money."
"Are you sick?" Ye Xunqing refused to take a penny. "You're already in this state, and you still want me to take money? That's too good to be true, isn't it?"
The trafficker was also desperate. "Damn it, you made me lose two taels of silver. I will send you to hell right now!"
Ye Xunqing stopped him and said, "I'm about to die, so don't bother looking for bad luck. Give me five hundred coins and I'll take them back to arrange a ghost marriage for my brother who died early."
The trafficker said, "I was wondering why you'd been waiting here for so long. So you're planning a ghost marriage. Okay, give me a tael of silver and I'll give him to you."
"You're obsessed with money." Ye Xunqing hugged Ye Xunbai and said without any reluctance: "Let's go, Ah Heng, let's go to another one." After that, Ye Xunqing left quickly.
"Wait, wait." Seeing that he had really left, the trafficker became anxious again. "Five hundred is five hundred, give me the money."
Ye Xunqing asked: "No more adding?"
The trafficker was delighted and asked, "What about the eight hundred?"
Ye Xunqing curled his lips into a smile, then said coldly, "It would be faster for you to rob the bank."
Seeing that he was about to leave again, the trafficker said with a cruel heart: "Five hundred, give me the money!"
Ye Xunqing took out all the copper coins he had, 489 coins, 11 coins short, "That's all I have, take it or leave it."
The trafficker sighed and said, "What bad luck!"
In the end, Ye Xunqing bought a half-dead boy for four hundred and eighty-nine coins.
The trafficker took the money and left. Ye Xunqing immediately went over to check on him. "He's still breathing. Hurry and take him to the doctor."
Feng Jingheng carried the boy to the clinic, Ye Xunqing supported him, and Feng Jinghua held Ye Xunbai in his arms from behind.
Ye Xunbai was ultimately unable to eat his roast chicken because Ye Xunqing had spent all his money on treating his brother's illness, spending one or two or three qian of silver, and almost all the money he earned from selling the sauce today.
Without money, they could only go back to eat noodles with minced meat. Ye Xunbai was not sad, he enjoyed the meal very much.
"Brother Qing, why did you spend money to buy this burden?" Feng Jinghua couldn't understand Ye Xunqing's behavior.
Ye Xunqing replied: "I originally thought that if I bought a dead one, I would go back and dig a hole to bury it, but I didn't expect to buy a living one, so I have to take it back first."
Feng Jingheng said, "We can't just stand by and watch someone die."
Feng Jinghua looked at Ye Xunqing, then at his brother, and finally said nothing. The money for the noodles was paid by Qing Ge'er, so how could he feel guilty about it and still have the nerve to say anything?
Ye Xunqing and his friends rushed to reunite with Ye Hongsheng's family. Wang Qiumei expressed her incomprehension when she learned that Ye Xunqing had bought a half-dead boy back home.
"You've worked so hard to earn money, and it's all gone down the drain. You're such a fool." Wang Qiumei frowned and said, "Oh, but this child is really pitiful. Look at how he's been beaten. There's not a single piece of healthy flesh left on his body. If you need any herbs, just come to my house and get them."
"You're too polite, Auntie. We've already bought it." Ye Xunqing said, "I suspect that old man with a goatee is trying to rip me off. What kind of medicine is so expensive? It costs more than one or two taels of silver!"
"Doctor Li said that the medicine inside is life-extending, so the price is a bit higher." Feng Jingheng said.
Ye Xunqing was just complaining. If one tael of silver could really buy a life, it would be worth it.
Although there was no internet in the village at that time, the news was very well-informed. Less than an hour after he arrived home, the whole village knew that Ye Xunqing had bought back a dying man.
Ye Xunqing felt that they were too annoying, so he closed the door.
At night, the guy woke up and found himself in a strange place, and he started screaming.
"Mute?" Ye Xunqing squatted on the ground and looked at him, "You can't speak?"
When the man saw Ye Xunqing, he calmed down a little and nodded.
"I can't speak, but I can hear others talking, which is okay." Ye Xunqing asked him: "Can you read? Can you write your own name?"
The guy was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"Oh, that's strange." Ye Xunqing shouted, "Xiaobai, go find a piece of half-burned charcoal under the stove."
Ye Xunbai opened the door and went outside to find charcoal, while Ye Xunqing continued to talk to him.
"Where are you from? Local or from another place?" Ye Xunqing said, "If you're from local, just nod your head. If you're from another place, just shake your head."
The brother shook his head.
"That means you're from out of town." Ye Xunqing thought for a moment and said, "A guy from out of town came here. Were you trafficked here? If there's anyone at home, I'll take you home."
The boy looked sad and shook his head.
"Is there no one home, or do you not want to go back?" Ye Xunqing asked again.
Ye Xunbai brought the charcoal over, and Chen Jinhua followed.
"Qing'er, why do you bring all these people home?" Chen Jinhua asked angrily, "Where did the money go? Did you use it all to buy him?"
Ye Xunqing was extremely annoyed. "Get out! If you bother me again, I won't teach you how to make mushroom and meat sauce."
After hearing this, Chen Jinhua immediately smiled and said, "Oh, it's my fault, Second Mother. I shouldn't have disturbed you. Please continue." She even closed the door considerately when she went out.
