Chapter 42 The road is narrow

To be honest, Niu Li was very envious of Chu Xintian for selling so many copper coins just now.

However, Niu Li is not a greedy person, and she pays more attention to the relationship with Chu Xintian than money.

Before digging up the medicinal materials, she said that these medicinal materials were all for Chu Xintian, why are she embarrassed to ask for money now?

"Yongjing Niang, I dug up those medicinal materials for you, I can't take money, it's not easy for you and Yongjing orphans and widows, how can I covet your money?"

Chu Xintian saw that Niu Li insisted on not accepting money, so he deliberately lowered his head and said, "Sister-in-law, if you don't accept it, I will be angry." You also heard from the shopkeeper Wang just now that he wants to cooperate with me for a long time, and I also want to ask you to help me go to Beishan to dig more medicinal materials, if you refuse to accept this money, I will come to you next time, how embarrassing are you?

Niu Li listened to Chu Xintian's words, so he couldn't refuse.

But she didn't ask for much. She took half of the copper coins that Chu Xintian gave her, and returned the remaining copper coins to Chu Xintian.

"Yongjing Niang, these are enough."

"Sister-in-law......"

"Yongjing Niang, I don't know about herbal medicine, if you don't say it's herbal medicine, I will only think it's grassroots."

Niu Li put the money away, and the two continued to hurry.

As soon as Chu Xintian entered a cloth shop, she saw a woman standing in front of her.

She looked like she was seventeen or eighteen years old, with a slender figure and fair skin, and wore a light pink satin dress. At this time, she looked Chu Xintian up and down, with a contemptuous smile on the corner of her mouth: "I didn't expect to see you here!" What bad luck!"

This woman is Chu Xintian's half-sister, Chu Pearl.

Chu Xintian's biological father Chu Huaiyuan was the catcher of the county government, and her biological mother was the daughter of the county magistrate at that time, Fang's.

Sixteen years ago, Fang died in childbirth, leaving behind five-year-old Chu Xintian and her newborn brother Chu Yuan.

Less than two months after Fang's death, Chu Huaiyuan married her maid Liu, as well as a pair of two-year-old dragon and phoenix fetuses, Chu Pearl and Chu Mingyu.

It turned out that when the Fang family was still alive, Chu Huaiyuan and the Liu family had already secretly hooked up together, and they had a pair of children.

The Liu family was very vicious, and Chu Xintian and her younger brother suffered a lot under her.

Their father, Chu Huaiyuan, was even more mean, only doting on Liu's two children, and indifferent to Chu Xintian's sisters and brothers.

From childhood to adulthood, Chu Pearl often bullied Chu Xintian under the pampering of her parents.

The original character is cowardly, and he doesn't dare to speak up even if he is bullied.

But now that Chu Xintian is no longer the original body, she will naturally not be bullied by Chu Pearl anymore.

Chu Xintian knows Chu Pearl very well. In the face of Chu Pearl's provocation, she was not angry at all. She smiled slightly, pretending not to see Chu Pearl. There was a suspicious expression on his face: "Hey, how can there be a dog barking in the cloth shop?"

Chu Pearl has been pampered since she was a child and has developed a domineering and arrogant character. Such a person does not have a high IQ and EQ.

Sure enough, as soon as Chu Xintian's words came to naught, Chu Pearl immediately shouted: "Chu Xintian, who do you say is a dog?"

She stared at Chu Xintian fiercely, and her expression almost ate her.

Chu Xintian was not in a hurry, she laughed again.

Her voice was soft, "Of course it's the one who made a lot of noise, do you want to be the dog?"

Chu Xintian's meaning is obvious, if Chu Pearl makes such a loud noise again, it will be equivalent to admitting that he is a dog.

Chu Pearl's heart was about to explode, but she finally suppressed the urge to scold back.

She glared at Chu Xintian fiercely, not knowing why she had become so smart, because she never dared to respond to her abuse.
