[QTC] MBDT Chapter 167

Wang Ermazi refused to say anything, insisting that he came here just to steal money.

“I came here really just to steal money.”

“Very good, don’t tell me.” Bei Yutang took out a thin needle from the drawer and waved it faintly in front of him.

Wang Ermazi did not take it seriously, but soon, he became shocked.

“People often say that ten fingers are connected to one’s heart. What do you think it would feel like if I inserted this thin needle into your nail?”

Wang Ermazi looked at her in fear. Seeing that the thin needle was about to penetrate, he surrendered immediately.

“I said, I said.”

Bei Yutang took back her hand and looked at him with cold eyes.

“There is a man in the north of the city who wants a few boys aged three or four. I thought it would be difficult for you to raise a child by yourself, so I prepared to take him away.”

Wang Ermazi was afraid that she would be angry after hearing this, so he quickly added: “I can pay to buy him away.”

Wang Ermazi had inquired about it and knew that Mu Zhitao was very bad to her son. He originally wanted to buy it from her. When he came to the house, he found that only Xiao Zimo was at home, and Mu Zhitao was ill and bedridden.

An idea struck him. He became greedy and prepared to kidnap Xiao Zimo secretly.

Now that he has been caught, he can only pay for it.

After hearing this, Xiao Zimo’s face turned pale. His dark eyes filled with tears. He knelt down in front of Bei Yutang with a thump and said with a choked voice: “Mother, don’t sell me. I can cook, chop wood, and do laundry. I will be obedient. Mother, please don’t sell me.”

The little guy cried pitifully, his dark eyes full of pleading.

Bei Yutang was so weak when he cried that he asked her not to sell him. She hugged him into her arms and said, “Silly boy, how could Mother sell you?”

Xiao Zimo held her sleeves tightly with both hands, fearing that if he let go, she would sell him.

Bei Yutang felt distressed and reached out to rub his hair.

Wang Ermazi was deeply afraid that she would bring trouble on him if she refused to sell, so he hurriedly said: “I can offer a high price, five taels of silver.”

Bei Yutang gave him a cold blow and said, “Shut up.”

Wang Ermazi was frightened by the aura emanating from her body. He suddenly did not dare to speak.

“I will only say once, please listen to me clearly. My son, Mu Zhitao, will not sell it, and I will never sell it. It is up to you whether it is a mountain of gold or a mountain of silver, do you understand?” In the last sentence, her voice suddenly became a little heavier.

Wang Ermazi nodded subconsciously, “I understand, I understand.”

“It’s good to understand. Now we should figure out the matter of you entering my house in the middle of the night and trying to kidnap my son. How do you think we should deal with it?” Bei Yutang stared at him with cold eyes.

Wang Ermazi trembled and asked, “What do you want to do?”

As soon as Wang Ermazi saw the silver needle in her hand, his body could not help but tremble.

“Do you think it would be better to beat you up, break your dishonest hands, or…” Bei Yutang gave several examples in succession, which made him feel terrified.

“Don’t, don’t, please forgive me this time, my lord.”

“Spare you?” Bei Yutang snorted coldly, “If I hadn’t discovered it in time, my son would have been sold by you. Do you think I can spare you?”

Wang Ermazi dropped his head, “Then what do you want?”

“Choose between amputating your hands and feet or paying ten taels of silver. It’s your choice.” Bei Yutang asked simply.

Ten taels of silver?!

Wang Ermazi’s eyes widened. That was a huge amount of money. Even if he sold all his belongings, he still would not have ten taels of silver.
