Transmigration: The Little Chef Calls The Shots-Chapter 1533 - 336, Selling Oneself (One More Update)

How to compensate? Their family has no silver to pay. All the silver they begged from Father Yinxing was spent by her mother on new clothes.

Huai Hua bit her lip tightly and braved herself to ask, "How much silver do you want me to pay?"

Lin Yuan shrugged her shoulders and counted on her fingers, "You caused a disturbance at our Dongtian entrance for a whole morning, affecting our business for that time. Usually, our shop has three hundred customers a day, but mornings are less busy, so let’s count it as a hundred for half a day! The cheapest dish in our Dongtian costs five taels of silver, and just for drinking tea and eating pastries it costs two taels of silver, so these hundred people..."

Listening to Lin Yuan mutter to herself, Huai Hua’s face turned pale, and she asked incredulously: "Two hundred taels of silver? How can it be so expensive! You’re lying!"

Lin Yuan raised her eyebrow and said curiously, "Why would I lie? There are so many people from the Capital city here, if you don’t believe me, you can ask them, see if what I’m saying is true?"

Lin Yuan’s gaze was clear, and her complexion natural, one could tell she was telling the truth just by looking at her.

Huai Hua and her family were from a village outside the city, and if they hadn’t come to the Capital city to ask Father Yinxing for silver today, they probably wouldn’t have known how expensive things at Dongtian are.

Hearing people around them speaking about how delicious Dongtian’s offerings are, Huai Hua no longer sought to verify whether Lin Yuan’s claim of two hundred taels of silver was true.

She glanced at Father Yinxing, knowing that this honest and simple village man definitely couldn’t be relied on, then turned to call Widow Qiao, who had fainted.

However, Widow Qiao was so frightened that no matter how much she was called, she just wouldn’t wake up.

Tears immediately welled up in Huai Hua’s eyes, and lifting her pear-blossom-and-rain drenched little face, she looked at Lin Yuan and glanced meaningfully towards Xia Zheng: "Miss, my mother is already like this, please spare our family! As you see, two hundred taels of silver is really too much for us."

Lin Yuan blinked her eyes, the corners of her mouth slightly drooped, and her body flashed to block the flirtatious glances Huai Hua was throwing at Xia Zheng, and she hummed harshly in her heart.

Xia Zheng behind her thoroughly enjoyed the protective feeling from Lin Yuan, and felt extremely fortunate! frёewebηovel.cѳm

"Yuanyuan, aren’t you very capable? I remember you even have the skills to revive the dead!"

Xia Zheng called Lin Yuan’s name tenderly, his hand involuntarily holding hers.

Watching the intimate gestures between the two, even the naive Huai Hua understood, and staring unbelievingly at Lin Yuan, she stuttered: "You, you are Princess Pingxi?"

Lin Yuan raised her eyebrows but didn’t deny it.

Huai Hua’s heart sank heavily; she is Princess Pingxi! She’s Father Yinxing’s master!

She had thought she wouldn’t stick up for a mere maid, but she actually came? Oh Yinxing, what luck you had in your last life to have such a good master!

Huai Hua then turned her gaze towards Xia Zheng, feeling even more jealous; she had long inquired that when daughters of large families marry, they bring their trusted servant girls who later become the son-in-law’s chambermaids and even concubines.

That Yinxing, with such a big ugly face, could actually become this young master’s concubine?

That’s so unfair!

Looking at her mother still pretending to be fainted, Huai Hua really wanted to curse loudly; why wasn’t it she who was sold off instead of Yinxing!

Glancing at Xia Zheng, Lin Yuan squeezed her eyes and smiled, "You’re right, I forgot I can revive the dead indeed!"

Saying so, she walked up to Huai Hua, took off the hairpin from her head, and stabbed it towards Widow Qiao’s philtrum!

"Ow!"

Widow Qiao screamed and immediately jumped up from the ground.

Huai Hua was shocked, cursing herself for being lost in thought just now and not noticing Lin Yuan’s movements.

Looking at the jumping Widow Qiao, Lin Yuan calmly reinserted the hairpin into her hair, and asked with a smile, "Big sister, aren’t you awake now? Can you compensate us now? Would you like to leave some items, or would you prefer to pay silver?"

Neither!

Widow Qiao looked terrifiedly at the still unremoved pork and more than ten knives on the ground, shaking her head like a rattle drum: "No, no, no items left, no items left!"

Lin Yuan nodded, smiling, "Then let’s settle with silver! A total of two hundred taels!"

"This, this..."
