Chapter 061: A Gesture of Effort

After Haiming left, Zhuang called Shen Xi to interrogate, "Who is that person?" Where do you live? ”

Shen Xi was not surprised by Zhuang's reaction, but fortunately urged him to leave quickly, otherwise I really don't know what Zhuang's would think. "I don't know, he's a powerful immortal cultivator, the immortal I told you about, don't you remember?"

"But I thought it was an old man with a long beard, how could he be a young and handsome young man. Seeing that he is well-dressed, he must be a son of a rich family, how can he be willing to be friends with a poor peasant girl like you. Zhuang's words were serious, as if he wanted to persuade Shen Xi to break off his friendship with him.

Shen Xi felt that the Zhuang family was making a big fuss, and said: "Mother, the hero doesn't ask where he comes from, is it possible that I can only be friends with the children of poor families?" What's more, we're moving out of here soon. ”

Zhuang was shocked, "Xi'er, your idea is too right!" Is this something you can move if you want to? ”

Shen Xi was a little surprised by Zhuang's fierce reaction, and comforted: "Ping'er is getting older, mother, do you want to sleep with him in the future?" ”

Zhuang was stunned. She never thought of escaping from here, but she never thought that it would become a reality, and when Shen Xi proposed it, she retreated, for fear that it was just a delusion.

Shen Xi continued: "It's not that I can't endure hardship, it doesn't matter if I just sleep on the streets, but I can't see Xiaowang and Ping'er suffering with me, I can inherit my father's business, and I will definitely be able to let you live a good life like my father did." Mother, you have to believe me, although I am young, I can let you rely on it. ”

Zhuang thought back to everything, if there was no eldest daughter, she must have died. She sighed, "Xi'er, it's up to you to decide everything. I can't stay in this Shenwang Village. ”

Shen Xi was in a very good mood when he saw that Zhuang was so easy to be moved. That night, Shen Xi collected all the fairy spirit grass in the medicine field. The next day, the fairy ointment was boiled again. One day later, she carried a bamboo basket and wanted to go to the town to sell fairy spirit ointment.

"Mother, I will come back as soon as possible." Shen Xi stood at the door.

Zhuang's face was calm, "Go ahead, beware of bad people, don't talk to people easily." ”

"Got it."

Shen Ping hugged Shen Xi, "Sister, I want a sugar gourd!" ”

"Okay." Shen Xi looked at Shen Wang, "My old sister, what do you want?" ”

Shen Wang smiled embarrassedly: "I also want sugar gourds." ”

"Okay." Shen Xi touched her head, "Sister will buy you a beautiful head rope again." ”

Shen Wang's eyes lit up and he nodded happily.

Shen Ping joined in the fun, "I want a head rope too!" ”

"Wang, Wang!" Xiao Hei is not to be left behind, and he has to roar twice.

Shen Xi left home happily, this time she did not walk from the main road in the village, but took a detour, so as not to let others find out that she had left, otherwise it would be in vain.

It was not yet dawn, the path was quiet, and there were only people picking vegetables in the vegetable patch. After Shen Xixiu improved, he walked very easily, and the cloth shoes on his feet were made by Zhuang's queen, and the bottom was very soft.

There was a five-mile road out of the village, and Shen Xi returned to the main road. Just as they were turning the corner, a man and a woman pounced. scared Shen Xi a lot.

Isn't this Wang Shun? Who is this woman? Shen Xi looked at them.

Wang Shun made a silent gesture towards Shen Xi. A few strong men came out over there, copying their family life, and they were violent. "Damn it, where are these shit damns!"

Wang Shun was frightened and hurriedly burrowed into the ditch beside him, his body was stained with muddy water, and the woman was lying on top of him. Dense summer grass grows on both sides of the ditch, and it is difficult to spot anyone inside.

Shen Xi was a little confused.

The strong man rushed over, glared at Shen Xi viciously, and shouted, "Did you see a pair of dogs and a man?" ”

Shen Xi was scared and nodded.

"Where are they? If you dare to lie, you will be killed. "Strong men threaten.

Shen Xi pointed to the cornfield opposite, "I saw them running there." ”

"Give me chase!" A group of people broke into the cornfield in a rage.

Shen Xi is on the road, and he doesn't care about the people in the ditch.

Wang Shun chased after him and said, "Miss Shen family, your great kindness, I, Wang Shun, have nothing to repay, I can only kowtow to you." Before Shen Xi could speak, the man covered in mud kowtowed to Shen Xi three times, and then pulled the woman away.

Shen Xi was puzzled and watched him run wildly. She carefully recalled that Wang Shun had been friendly with a prostitute named Osmanthus Hua, and after Wang Liu's death, Wang Shun did not want to attach himself to Wang Shan and became a loner. So it turned out that he had nothing to worry about in this life except osmanthus, and he had no money to ransom her, so he could only desperately take her to escape.

Wang Shan, this person has done a lot of evil, and sooner or later he will die. Shen Xi has been staying at home recently, he hasn't moved around much, and he hasn't found an opportunity, which is a pity.

Yueting Town, as always, it seems that the previous rat slavery did not cause much of a problem, people should eat and drink, and they should drink tea and tea.

This time, she quickly found the street. There are too many fairy ointments, she has to sell them first, this batch is collected, and it can be sold for sixty taels, which is really good.

Shen Xi entered Jishitang, Zhao Ji was not there, and Jixiang received her.

Jixiang said: "Girl, you are here, and Mr. said how much you will receive, and it is still the original price." ”

Shen Xi took out the copper box and said, "Six catties, you weigh it." ”

"Okay." Ji Xiang passed the scales and said, "No more, no less than six catties." It's sixty taels, and the girl will take it. ”

Shen Xi smiled and accepted the money, put them in a purse, and hid them under the bamboo basket, "Thank you." ”

"The girl is polite, the girl walks slowly!" Jixiang sent her to the door.

Shen Xi stood on the street, looking left and right, not knowing where to go. She caught a glimpse of the "literary shop" not far away, with a "pen, ink, paper and inkstone" on the plaque, straightforward and not fancy, which showed that the owner of this shop was a real person. Shen Xi opened his legs and went over there.

In the store, a slender woman is flipping through rice paper on the counter, not very tall, and should not be very old.

When the shopkeeper saw Shen Xi coming in, he came over to greet him, and asked politely, "Little girl, what do you want to sell?" ”

The woman inside turned around and glanced at Shen Xi, frowned, and continued to flip. Shen Xi took a look, isn't this the pavilion chief's daughter Wang Meixian, I didn't see it, she was a person who liked martial arts and ink.

Shen Xi glanced at the shop and said, "Does the master have a paperweight?" It doesn't need to be too good, the brass one will do. ”

"Hmph." Wang Meixian snorted coldly.

The shopkeeper did not dislike Shen Xi's poor acidity, but said: "Brass paperweights are actually not good, they are easy to have green rust, and they don't last long." I have a new flower stone paperweight in my house, and the price is almost the same as that of brass. Do you want me to show it to you? ”

"Okay." Shen Xi walked to the counter.

Wang Meixian looked Shen Xi up and down, as if she was very disgusted with her, and moved to the side.

The shopkeeper took out a patterned stone paperweight and put it in front of Shen Xi.

Wang Meixian caught a glimpse, snatched it, and angrily said to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper!" Didn't you say there are no good paperweights? What is it? How dare you lie to me! What a guts! ”
