Regarding everyone's request, Xiaoxiao was at a loss for words. How had they concluded she had the Silver to buy Yixiang Courtyard? She was broke, okay?
"I don't have any Silver."
"How can that be? Aren't you associated with Yuelai Restaurant...?" Everyone was surprised at Xiaoxiao's claim of having no Silver, because they thought she had connections with Yuelai Restaurant.
"I only know the Young Master from Yuelai Restaurant, but we don't have any relationship. Actually, I'm just a farmer," explained Xiaoxiao.
Hearing this, everyone fell silent as if struck, the hope that had just ignited was extinguished. It was as if things weren't that bad before, but Xiaoxiao's suggestion that they could survive by only selling their talents and not their bodies had raised their expectations.
Seeing everyone's disappointed faces, Xiaoxiao felt helpless. Indeed, they were a pitiable group, the most vulnerable in this place. But her own capabilities were limited; she was still just a farmer.
