"Yo, you kid is so young that you can fool people, since it's auspicious, why don't you take it home and provide for yourself?" Xu Jiaorong immediately asked rhetorically.

The little boy was also articulate, and immediately smiled bitterly: "Sister, you are a rich man, Xiao'er I am a poor man, Xiangrui stays in my house, at most a meal of turtle soup is gone, but if it is in your house, settle down in the town, and bless the children and grandchildren, sister, do you want to buy it?"

"You kid, you can say with one mouth, you say the price, I'll see if it's reasonable. Xu Jiaorong smiled angrily.

Xiao'er smiled, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth, he stretched out five fingers, and said with a smile:

"It's not expensive, it's not expensive, five taels of silver is your family's. ”

"Five taels is not expensive? Xu Jiaorong waved her hand again and again, pulling Tao Bao to leave, but she didn't pull it, and suddenly said in disbelief:

"Sister Tao, don't you really want to buy it, don't listen to this kid's nonsense, what auspicious and ominous, if you really buy it, it's just two mouthfuls of soup, or a soup that can't be drunk, five taels of silver, you can think about it." ”

Tao Bao saw that she was really anxious, shook his head and comforted: "Sister Xu, don't worry, I won't be impulsive." ”

After finishing speaking, he squatted down to look at the big turtle, and the big turtle also looked at her, and the mung bean's big eyes showed helplessness, and Tao Bao suddenly felt funny.

The ancients said that the thousand-year-old king is 80,000 years old, and this one in front of him is not even a king, so he will be able to walk for 500 years, and he doesn't know how he was unlucky to let humans be caught.

"Xiao'er, you know that this is auspicious, why don't you let it go? If you really have a spirit to repay your kindness, aren't you a rich man?"

Hearing the girl in blue in front of her ask, Xiao'er sighed at a young age:

"Sister, you said that it was just in case, I know if it has spirituality? Even if it has spirituality, it will not necessarily repay the favor if it is released, if I give a small fish to finish, won't I lose money?"

"My grandmother is still lying in bed and can't get out of bed, so I might as well exchange some money and go back and buy two packets of medicinal herbs for my grandmother to heal. ”

After hearing his words, Xu Jiaorong was really a little impressed, and praised: "I didn't expect you to be a filial person." ”

"This sister, of course I am a filial person, my house is next door to the academy, those scholars read all day long, although I have not gone in to study, but I have also listened to a lot, and this is the basic principle of good conduct. Xiao'er laughed.

Xu Jiaorong laughed at him, but even so, she would not be willing to spend five taels of silver to buy an inedible turtle.

"Sister, do you want to buy it?" asked Xiao'er looking at Tao Bao squatting in front of him.

Tao Bao shook his head, "Xiao'er, your big turtle is spiritual, are you really willing to sell it?"

The child's eyes widened suddenly, and he said curiously, "Sister, how do you know that it has spirituality?"

Tao Bao didn't answer, but pointed to the West Lake next to him: "If you regret letting it go home, it can be regarded as a good deed, anyway, your turtle has not been sold yet, and doing a good deed may also accumulate merit for your grandmother." ”

"It's a bit sick, the medicine stone is useless, but do more good deeds, and it will be fine inadvertently, do you understand what I mean?" Tao Bao asked.

Xiao'er was honest and shook his head, "I don't understand." ”

"You get the idea. Tao Bao smiled at him, got up and said to Xu Jiaorong: "Sister Xu, let's go back, no matter how late the pork stall is, it will be closed." ”

Seeing that Tao Bao didn't buy it, Xu Jiaorong breathed a sigh of relief and said to the child:

"Your child knows how to take care of the family at a young age, and he will be blessed in the future, so it is better to go home and take care of his grandmother for such a long time, and the turtle can't be eaten or sold, so don't delay time." ”

After speaking, he went to look for pork stalls with Tao Bao.

The only two guests also left, and the people around them also dispersed when they saw that there was no excitement.

The little boy stared at the turtle for a long time, thinking that there was no one to take care of his grandmother at home, and his heart became anxious, and he was in a dilemma for a while, and left with the basin.

When he reached the water's edge in front of his house, he turned the basin over, and the turtle fell into the water.

"Forget it, let you go, I hope it can really be as the sister said, I can accumulate blessings for grandma, you I picked you up here before, and now I release you here, you go home, I will go home too." ”

After saying this, Xiao'er got up and went home, and the turtle stayed in the water for a while before swimming to the bottom.

Tao Bao's side, after buying vegetables, came back with Xu Jiaorong, and the two discussed that she would go to Li's house to meet her in the evening, and then they went home.

When he came back, he had already arrived, and a large bundle of firewood was standing in the corner of the front yard, and he was chopping firewood according to what Tao Bao said before.

Tao Bao went to the kitchen and put the basket down, and while cleaning up the stove, he instructed the rolling outside:

"Let's go to Li's house next door for dinner tonight, you follow me to call someone when the time comes, we are here for an indefinite period, integrating into the neighbors is a compulsory course, you have to slowly get used to living like a person, you don't want to eat if you can't eat dinner, don't let people think that we are rude, you know?"

In the past, when he was with Tao Bao, his three meals were in Tao Bao's own home, so naturally he didn't have to hide it, and later he stayed in the space with Tao Bao for a long time, and he didn't have to worry about these details.

But now it's different, since he has been brought to his side, the days will be long in the future, but he can't continue to pay no attention to it.

The rolling man who was chopping wood remembered the food that humans ate, and immediately frowned in disgust, but he didn't dare to object, and replied loudly:

"Got it!"

Knowing his dislike, Tao Bao said with a smile: "You don't have to really swallow it, I'll give you a storage bag later, and you can spit it out while people aren't paying attention." ”

Otherwise, this zombie can't digest it, and it's fun.

The two discussed many details in the courtyard, Tao Bao finished lunch alone, led the rolling out to prepare the meeting gift, and at four or five o'clock in the afternoon, he led the rolling to the door of the Li house next door.

Just as he was about to raise his hand and knock on the door, a man in a green shirt dressed as a scholar opened the door first, and both sides were stunned, and then the man bowed first, and asked with a smile:

"It's Miss Tao and Mr. Tao next door, right? In Xu Hanwen, my sister is asking me to call the two of you to come to the house. ”

Looking at this polite man in green shirts, Tao Bao felt that he was much more pleasing to the eye than Ning Caichen, but these two people were equally timid.

One was scared half to death by her, and the other was scared to death by Bai Suzhen, which is really a bit of a difficult brother.

Thinking of these in his head, Tao Bao didn't forget to reply: "Exactly." ”

Pushing and rolling as he spoke, a certain zombie stiffened his face and gave a serious hand, and then said the polite words taught by Tao Bao in a tone without fluctuation.

Xu Xian was embarrassed throughout the whole process, and in the face of the unstoppable politeness of the rolling repeater, he couldn't interject at all, but fortunately, Xu Jiaorong inside heard the movement and came out to greet him, otherwise the people on both sides would not know how long they would stand at this door.
