Chapter 16: Finding Jade

Although Zhu Yan thought in her heart that she could sell that piece of jade in the future, she knew that selling jade pendants would only be a big deal of money, and it was a bit of a conscience to be able to keep a thirty percent of the value of the shopkeeper.

Xue Jingyan estimated that his background was extraordinary, and the jade pendant he took out would not be bad. Otherwise, he wouldn't have used the jade pendant to redeem so many silver tickets in the end. Zhu Yan didn't accept his silver ticket at that time, and he also felt that it was just a convenient one, and it was not worth it for that person to exchange so many silver tickets.

But when she accepted the jade pendant, she also had a thought, and she didn't think that she would really sell it. If the black-hearted businessman saw that she was young and easy to bully, then Xue Jingyan's kindness would be ruined.

After Zhu Yan was unstable for a while, he had to stop his rummaging movements. The space in the carriage was so large that Zhu Yan didn't fumble for a long time, which made her even more convinced that it should have landed on the edge of the waterhole.

When she stepped into the carriage, it was very late, and it was very unrealistic to go to find Jade now. Zhu Yan had no choice but to calm down his irritable heart and let himself fall asleep on the carriage. In this way, I will have the energy to get up early tomorrow to find the jade pendant, so as not to delay the trip of the Lin family's caravan.

The eight-year-old child's size is not large, and Lin Qin almost left the entire carriage to her, so when she sleeps at night, Zhu Yan still has a lot of space to lie down. But Zhu Yan just tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Tossing and turning, and dreaming that when she was in Jincheng, she had been staying in Jincheng, thinking that she would be able to see her benefactor again, but she didn't see her for a long time. Later, she dreamed that she was married in a phoenix crown, and the people around her looked at her enviously, but she was at a loss under the red hijab.

When Zhu Yan woke up, he opened the window of the carriage and found that the sun had not fully risen, the whole camp was quiet, and everyone had not yet gotten up.

Zhu Yan got dressed, combed her hair with Lin Qin's comb, and didn't do any hairstyle, so she got out of the carriage with her hair scattered.

The Lin family, who was keeping vigil, saw her walking out, and couldn't help but look at each other a few times, thinking that this person was also a child that Lin Qin looked at differently, so they followed one up and asked her softly what was the matter.

The caravan traveled north and south, without much attention, sometimes in order to protect the skin, would not wash her hair and face for several months, knowing that Zhu Yan had always been a little girl who loved cleanliness, and she didn't even comb her hair well at the moment, but she was afraid that she would go out in the morning for something important.

They didn't care where the kid was going alone, but if Lin Qin asked, he had to be able to answer. After all, Lin Qin's preferential treatment of Zhu Yan in the past few days is obvious to all. Everyone also guessed the reason in their hearts, but seeing that the big shopkeeper also favored her, it wouldn't be bothersome to ask more anyway, so they asked.

Zhu Yan thanked him for his concern, knowing that he was just because of Lin Qin, so he hurriedly smiled and said to him: "Hello brother, I lost something last night, and I thought I wanted to find it back, so I got up early." Could you please help me talk to Sister Qin, and just say that I went to the place I went last night and will be back soon. ”

Zhu Yan has a good memory and can remember where she went yesterday, but the person who stopped her was entangled for a while, and still said what if Zhu Yan didn't come back in time, and let him explain to Shopkeeper Lin.

He still had some vigil duties, and everyone hadn't gotten up yet, so he couldn't leave his companions behind.

Fortunately, Zhu Yan also knew his dilemma, so he only smiled, rejected his desire to accompany her, and said: "I walked this road yesterday, and Sister Qin also told me that this neighborhood is safer because it is closer to the county town. Brother don't worry about Xiao Yan. If Xiao Yan didn't rush back in time, just ask the caravan to leave in time. Yesterday, Sister Qin had already pointed me in the direction of the county seat, and I could do it by myself. ”

She thought that if she didn't follow them to Jiangli County, there would be nothing wrong with it, and it would be closer anyway. Otherwise, when he arrived in Jiangli County, he had to tell the shopkeeper Lin and the pan, Zhu Yan's face was too thin, and he was embarrassed to lie, but he was embarrassed to face it.

The children of the Lin family who stopped him also responded, and returned to the camp after watching her go away.

It just so happened that the man in the double swordsman couple also got up, and after washing, he was carrying a sword and preparing to practice swords. Seeing him coming, he went up and hugged his fists and asked.

"This little brother, may I ask the little girl in front of you, but is it your host's child? At such a young age, he came out to wander, and he really deserved to be the famous Lin family caravan in Jiangdong County! ”

The man smiled, and saw that the person with the sword in front of him was the person who even the shopkeeper had to speak in a good voice, and he was very happy when he heard that he admired the Lin family, and said: "That's not it, she is a child in a small town where we stayed last time, because her father was going to sell her to another family as a child daughter-in-law, so she ran out alone, ready to go to Jiangli County to find relatives." ”

The man nodded, looked at the child's back, a hint of deep thought flashed in his eyes, and asked with a smile: "Then do you know, why did she get up so early and go over there, I remember that there is a big lake over there, and she is a child, and she doesn't know if it's safe." ”

"Well, I know it's not safe, but she's going to look for what she's left behind. After all, it's a child, and a little bit of something feels extraordinarily precious. It's not that I don't want to protect her, it's just that she didn't give the caravan much money, and we can't rush to protect her. Otherwise, our Lin family won't be able to do business in the future, right? ”

The man smiled and responded a few times. I couldn't see the child in front of me at all, so I went back to my residence, which was the tent that Shopkeeper Lin specially set up for them last night.

"Lu Lang, you're back. What are you going to see so early? As soon as the man walked in, a woman's body was entangled, and the face that looked dignified last night looked a little bit today. Lewd. Evil spirit.

Lu Shiqing tore her off himself, and said without hesitation: "Okay, put this set away for me." Remember to wait for a good show in front of the Lin family's shopkeeper. ”

The woman in red was a little unhappy, "What is the table!" The little girl of the Lin family is so good. If it weren't for my mother, I would have lived a few years longer than her, and I'm afraid that even the old bottom was lifted off by her last night. ”

Lu Shiqing frowned and asked, "You mean Lin Qin is a little suspicious of our identity?" No, why haven't they seen a real Twin Swordsman Couple. ”

The woman in red stretched out her hand, carefully observed her Hao arm, and then looked at Lu Shiqing, who looked uncertain.

"What, do you have a crush on that chick? It's really looking for death. ”

"My good pearl, you're still eating dry vinegar at this time! Let me say what is good about you? ”

"Come on. Finally got rid of those two sluts, this time I met the caravan originally wanted to rob their way, and take tens of thousands of taels of silver, but I didn't expect that there were a few capable people in this caravan, if we made a noise and escaped a few people from the Hades Palace knew that we dared to do things here, then we would be miserable. "It turns out that this sanctimonious person is not a real two-sword hero.

"Forget it, since you can't get this vote, it's just that. When the Lin family leaves, we will also leave on our own. Don't clash with them, the Lin family caravan is not something we can afford to provoke after all. ”

"I know. I don't dare gamble with my own life. Lu Lang, it's hard to relax and relax, Zhu'er misses you so much! Zhu'er put her arms around Lu Shiqing's neck again. This time, Lu Shiqing didn't slap those hands, but pounced impatiently.

An hour later, the two of them rolled in the tent, straightened their clothes, and stayed well. The Lin family's caravan outside is almost up, and they are packing up their things and preparing to leave.

Lin Qin got into the carriage, ready to wake up this little girl who was lazy and refused to get up, and gave a good training, but she didn't expect to lift the curtain and go in only to find that the bed on the carriage had been put away, and there was no residual temperature on it, so it was conceivable that Zhu Yan had been gone for a while.

Lin Qin was still suspicious, was Zhu Yan embarrassed to tell the truth to Shopkeeper Lin, and left early. However, when she saw the package that was still there, she was relieved and understood that something might have gone out of this girl.

When Lin Qin got out of the carriage, the guy who stopped Zhu Yan in the morning stepped forward and gently told her about Zhu Yan going to find something, and said that if they didn't come back in time, they would let them go first.

Lin Qin listened to his words and couldn't help but shake her head, it seemed that she hadn't thought wrong, this girl was still a little afraid to face it. Otherwise, why haven't you come back after so long? But if you think about the package, you must not have rushed back yet, otherwise you wouldn't have left the most important thing behind.

Within a few quarters of an hour, everyone in the Lin family's caravan had already packed their things, but Zhu Yan had not yet returned. Lin Qin couldn't help but be a little anxious, just at this time, the Twin Swordsmen came out of their tent and were walking towards her.

Lin Qin looked at the charm at the corners of the woman's eyebrows and eyes, and couldn't help but feel a stump in her heart, but thinking that these two were husband and wife, it was natural for them to do this kind of thing. So he looked at the man in green clothes.

Lu Shiqing clenched his fist to Lin Qin and said, "Good morning, Shopkeeper Lin." At this time, we are ready to say goodbye to you. We will continue to walk on the rivers and lakes, so as not to disturb you too much. Thank you last night. ”

The two exchanged a few words, and Lu Shiqing smiled, which made a trace of resentment flash in the corner of the eyes of the woman in red on the side.

Of course, Lin Qin didn't see this scene, but just looked in the direction of yesterday from time to time to see why the girl hadn't come back. But at this time, the things of the caravan have been sorted out, and she is indispensable, and she is estimated to be about to leave after the meeting. Although Shopkeeper Lin has a good heart, he will not stay for a strange girl for too long.

Lu Shiqing knew what happened in the morning, and seeing the sullen and unhappy meaning between her eyebrows, he couldn't help asking, "May I ask if the girl cares about that little girl?" I heard from the guy before that she went looking for something. He hasn't returned yet, so he hasn't found it yet. Let's just wait here for a while, and you can go first. You businessmen, you still have to hurry up, I heard that there is a temple fair in Jiangli County on the day, and it is not good if you miss it. ”

Lin Qin looked at the gentle and elegant Lu Shiqing, and couldn't help but feel a wave of goodwill, hearing that he was willing to take over Zhu Yan's matter, he couldn't help but thank him repeatedly, and went to the carriage to take out Zhu Yan's package and give it to him.
