Chapter 339 Help
As the two of them spoke, there was the sound of running water.
"Old Qiao, why does this village have to build a greenhouse instead of planting tea trees? It's already November and winter is coming. Isn't this ridiculous?"
"Why do you care so much? If they pay you to build it, build it. Maybe they want to start planting next spring."
"Anyway, I've never heard of anyone building a greenhouse in the winter."
"I heard that this was suggested by the orchard owner in the village. He even said that their seeds are special. As for how, I don't know."
"How special can it be? I don't believe that you can grow vegetables in the middle of winter. I reckon he'll go broke after a heavy snow."
"You're too mean. They haven't even started yet and you're already saying such discouraging things."
"I just think it's too ridiculous."
The two of them chatted for a while. When the sound of running water disappeared, the two of them let out the sound of smoking.
When Qin Lan, who was hunched in the barn, heard this, her eyes were filled with hatred and indignation. It was all Qin Xi's fault that she had become like this.
When she thought of how she had to endure the humiliation and scolding from the old bachelor's mother from time to time, as well as the hunger and cold, her heart was filled with hatred. She just wanted to find a chance to escape.
Not only did she want to take back everything that belonged to her, but she also wanted to snatch everything from Qin Xi and make her return to being a pitiful worm in the dust.
At the thought of this, she leaned against the wall and whispered in a weak voice, "Brothers, Brothers… Can you hear me?"
Because the barn was made of mud mixed with dried straw and hemp rope, it was not soundproof. When she shouted, it immediately shocked the two men.
However, when they heard a woman's voice behind the mud wall, the two of them looked at each other and asked curiously, "W-Who are you?"
Hearing this response, Qin Lan was overjoyed and so excited that she did not know what to do. She cried in a low and mellow voice, "Brothers, I, I was kidnapped by this old bachelor. Can you save me? As long as you can save me, I'm willing to agree to anything, okay?"
Qin Lan was a green tea b*tch to begin with. Her voice was charming and gentle, vividly portraying the helplessness of being imprisoned. It was very tempting. When the two old men outside the wall heard it, they couldn't help but feel their bodies go weak.
"Old Qiao, what should we do? Should we go and find the village chief?"
The man looked at his fellow worker inquiringly.
The man called Old Qiao was a middle-aged man. He looked honest and foolish, but those who knew him knew that he was a bad person and had nothing to do with being honest.
On the other hand, the man who asked the question was timid. When he heard Qin Lan asking for help, he instantly thought of how to save her.
"Shh, don't talk yet." Old Qiao rolled his eyes and made a shushing gesture.
"Hey, how do you want me to save you? What's the situation? Who else is in this house with you?" Old Qiao asked Qin Lan carefully.
Qin Lan quickly said, "My, my feet are chained. Brother, can you help me open them…? There's an old bachelor at home. He's an alcoholic and rarely stays at home during the day. There's also an old lady in the front room. She's in her sixties and occasionally comes to vent her anger on me."
"Brother, Brother, please save me. When I go out, I'll definitely repay you. I know how to wash clothes, cook, and… know something else…"
