Chapter 653 Episode 4 Case
After Wu Neng was angered to death, Yao could only continue to live in Jinan Prefecture with her youngest son. Because they had no money, Wu Neng’s funeral was very simple.

A straw mat, a piece of cemetery, and then just wrap it up and bury it.

poor person must have something mean.

Spring goes and autumn comes, and in the blink of an eye, ten years have passed.

Yao’s son gradually grew up. As an adult, Yao Zi indulged in drinking, whoring and gambling. He was lazy and never earned money. The family had long been unable to make ends meet.

Early that morning, Yao Zi came to a gambling house to gamble and accidentally heard that there was a famous prostitute in the capital who looked somewhat like Yao Zi.

After hearing the news, Yao Zi immediately returned home and found his mother, Yao.

“Mom, I heard someone say that there is a woman in the capital who looks very similar to me. She may be my sister.”

When Yao heard the news, she looked a little sad and asked, “So what? We can’t just go find someone else while licking our faces, right? After all, I was the one who sold her out in the first place.”

Yao Zi rolled his eyes and said to Yao: “Mom, why not?”

“I tell you, if she is really my sister, then we will be rich!”

Yao was puzzled and asked, “What do you mean?”

Yao Zi said, “If she is really my sister, then she has become a famous prostitute in the capital. We just need to find her and the person who bought her and take my sister back. Do you think the person who bought her will be willing to do so?”

“How can the other party give up such a cash cow? They will definitely give us money to settle the matter!”

Yao’s eyes lit up, this was a good idea. Their life was so difficult now, they had no money to support their expenses, and with her disappointing son, their lives were getting worse by the year.

Staying in Shandong is not a solution. Instead, he might as well go to the capital to find the daughter he had sold.

“Okay, let’s do this, let’s go to the capital!”

……

One month later, Beijing.

At first, Yao and Wu Neng sold Wu Shuxian to the musician Zhang, and now Zhang sold Wu Shuxian to the musician Yuan Lin.

Yuan Lin was visited by two people today.

“Mancang’er is my daughter. This matter cannot be denied. If you don’t return our daughter to us today, we will report to the police!”

Yuan Lin did not want to cause trouble. He only wanted to enter the palace. He thought for a long time before asking the other party: “Tell me, what do you want to do?”

“Want money?”

“Just speak up, don’t threaten me with anything else!”

“Mancang’er is mine now. No one can take her back. You sold her for money in the beginning. Now you are just looking for money. Tell me the amount.”

Yao Zi thought for a while and said, “Five hundred taels!”

“Give us five hundred taels at once, and we will never pursue this matter again!”

Yuan Lin frowned: “Five hundred taels? Do you really think a prostitute is worth that much?”

“impossible!”

Yao Zi laughed and said, “Isn’t it worth money? I heard that my sister goes in and out of the residences of Jinshi masters and Juren masters, and can earn at least 10 taels of silver each time, right? Going in and out twice a day is 20 taels, and I can earn you taels a month. We want taels, and you think it’s too much?”

Yuan Lin sneered: “You have made a good calculation, but have you ever considered how much money I spent on training her?”

“Okay, I won’t waste my words with you. Five hundred taels is five hundred taels. After this transaction, we will have nothing to do with each other. Five hundred taels is enough for you to live on for the rest of your lives. Don’t be greedy!”

Yao Zi said cheerfully: “Okay! Then five hundred taels!”

When the mother and son received the money, they were both very excited. Yao said, “Son! Let’s go back to Shandong. This money is enough for us to spend for the rest of our lives!”

Yao Zi smiled and said, “Mother, we finally came to the capital. It’s not too late to play here for two days before going back. I’ll keep the money.” Yao Shi hurriedly said, “Don’t talk nonsense! I don’t know what you’re going to do with the money. You are not allowed to touch this money. Leave it with me from now on!”

Yao Zi said helplessly: “Okay then.”

“But mother, we are going to spend two days in the capital, eat and stay well, and go back when we have enough fun! These five hundred taels will last us a long time!”

Yao smiled and said, “Okay, let’s find an inn to stay in first.”

into the night.

Seeing that his mother was fast asleep, Yao Zi secretly took all the money and found a gambling house in the capital.

“Find two girls to keep me company!”

Yao Zi casually threw out ten taels of silver, “Go!”

“Hey, okay! I’ll find it right away!”

“Bet ten taels!”

Seeing Yao Zi being so generous, the gamblers around cast envious glances at him. The two women at this time called Yao Zi “Master Yao” one after another in front of him, which was so ecstatic.

However, Yao Zi’s generous spending did alarm the doctor in the gambling house. Several people exchanged glances, and then a professional old man came over and shook the dice himself.

Once, twice, three times…

The five hundred taels that Yao Zi brought were lost in just one hour.

He did not give up and borrowed another 500 taels from the gambling house. Two hours later, he lost all the 500 taels again. This happened again and again. He borrowed more than 1,300 taels of silver from the gambling house before he was driven away. The gambling house told him to return the money within a month, otherwise they would break his legs.

Yao Zi returned to the inn with a nervous and worried look on his face.

Early in the morning.

Yao got up early and saw her son sitting at the window. She was terrified and said hurriedly, “Son! What are you doing? Come down quickly! It’s dangerous over there!”

Yao Zi cried, “Mom, I’m sorry, I deserve to die, please let me die!”

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu”

“What happened? We can talk about it. Hurry up and get up. What happened?”

Yao Zi slapped his cheeks repeatedly and said, “I deserve to die! I wanted to gamble last night, thinking I could just bet three or five taels of silver and be done with it!”

“Who knows, who knows…”

“Lost everything?” Yao exclaimed.

Yao Zi said: “Not only did I lose everything, I also owe the casino 1,300 taels. Mom! I deserve to die, I really deserve to die, just let me die!”

Yao was filled with anger, but she didn’t dare to provoke her son, so she could only comfort him kindly: “My son, don’t be impulsive, don’t be impulsive!”

“It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter, the money is gone, as long as the person is fine!”

“Let’s, let’s… go ask your sister for money again! She has money! Last time, she gave us five hundred taels, so she will definitely give us one thousand three hundred taels!”

“For the last time, let’s ask him one last time!”

“Don’t be upset, come down quickly.”

Yao Zi then jumped down from the window, knelt on the ground, and cried, “Mom, I deserve to die. I’m sorry, wuwuwu!”

“Hey! Stop talking. I hope you can learn from this lesson. Let’s go and get the money now!”
