The old man's voice was a little choked, and he couldn't help but secretly wipe his tears, suppress the fear in his heart, and try to squeeze out a smiling face, looking at Yun Xiyao apologetically.

"Little girl, I'm really sorry, my wife is relatively weak, I had a cold a few days ago, I was too worried just now, please don't be surprised, by the way, do you like it? Have you picked it up?

The old man couldn't help but shake his head, what's wrong with him? Why are you talking to a little girl for no reason? Is it a blockage for no reason? If you don't buy a headband because of these, won't the old woman be even more angry?

Yun Xiyao has always been casual and does things according to her mood, but somehow when she heard the old man's words, she couldn't help but ask, "Did the old man go to see the doctor?" ”

The old man shook his head again and again, leaning over and looking at the old woman next to him who was afraid to cough, his voice was a little choked, "Girl, where is a poor family like us qualified to see a doctor?" Even if the doctor did good deeds and prescribed medicine, we didn't have the money to buy medicine. ”

Yes, Yun Xiyao had a stump in her heart, how could she forget that in this backward era, even a small wind and cold will take people's lives if they don't get it right, let alone such a family?

It is not unreasonable for the old man to be so distressed and afraid.

Yun Xiyao couldn't help but raise her eyes and look at the old woman carefully, and comforted: "Fortunately, the old grandmother just has a common cold and has a fever, but if it goes on like this for a long time, there will be trouble sooner or later, so it's better to pay attention to it in the future." ”

"Really?" The old man's eyes lit up.

Although I don't know about the symptoms, I still understand the words like common cold.

Yun Xiyao nodded lightly.

The old man cried with joy, raised his thin fingers, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said with a bit of brisk tone: "Girl, do you see if you have something you like?" If you don't have it today, you can come back the next day, my wife's hands are very skillful, and every day she will change new tricks. ”

Yun Xiyao picked up the red rope in her hand, licked it and smiled: "That's it, I like it very much." ”

"Okay!" The old man nodded busily, it was not easy, he finally made his first business today, and he was very happy, the old woman didn't have to be cold and hungry today.

"Old man, how much does this cost?" Yun Xiyao took another root with her hand.

"The little girl will save ten cents for one head, and two will give you eighteen cents for a cheaper one." The old man smiled from ear to ear.

Yun Xiyao nodded, stretched out her hand and touched her waist, she couldn't help but be stunned, very embarrassed, she was in a hurry to come out and take a casual walk, but she didn't bring any silver at all, not a word.

"This old man is embarrassed, he was in too much of a hurry to go out today, and he didn't bring silver taels." Yun Xiyao laughed dryly and put things down.

When the old man heard this, the smile on his face was replaced by loss, but it was gone in a blink of an eye, and he said happily again, "It's okay little girl, I see that you like it very much, I'll give you this red rope, anyway, the old woman made it up herself, and it doesn't cost money." ”

He picked up the red head rope that Yun Xiyao picked first and handed it to her, "Xiaoguliang, you look so good wearing it, if my granddaughter is here, she will be as old as you." ”

The old man didn't know what to think, his heart moved, and Yun Xiyao's heart was suddenly touched.

took the red rope from the old man's hand and thanked him politely, "Old man, I'm not far from here, and I'll send someone to send the money over in a while." ”

The old man hurriedly waved his hand: "Oh, the little girl doesn't need it, and it doesn't cost much, so it's better to give it to you." ”

Why did it seem to be forced to buy and sell, and they all said that they would not accept money from other girls, so they still don't want it, the old man's mind turned back and forth, and he shook his head again and again.

Yun Xiyao frowned slightly, glanced at the old woman who was shrunk and trembling in the wind, hurriedly took off the cloak on her body, walked over in a few steps, and draped the cloak on the old woman.

Old Yu was happy in his heart, and suddenly his body was warm, the sun was shining, and he was extremely comfortable, and he was at a loss, "Old man, this is ......"

Seeing this, the old man panicked, hurriedly shook his head, and stepped forward to stop him, "Girl, I can't help it, we can't accept such an expensive thing." ”

This cloak looks very expensive, and it is estimated that the money to buy a headband in this life will not be able to buy it.

Yun Xiyao couldn't refuse, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, this is your fault, you see that I like your family's head rope, didn't you give it to me?" I like the old woman's headband very much, and I will give her clothes as a gift in return. The gift is not expensive, but what you want is your heart for me. ”

Yun Xiyao shook the red rope in her hand and turned to leave.

To tell the truth, she is not a good person, and even sometimes feels that she is heinous and hard-hearted. But in the vast sea of people, in the red world, there is always something indescribable, holy and unbearable to blaspheme.

Yun Xiyao tied the green silk high with a red rope, and walked around in a circle, just walked around the corner, ready to go home, heard a noise, couldn't help frowning, and looked back.

The beautiful eyes stared, and the light was slightly cold.

I saw a few fat heads and big ears not far away, opening stalls while walking, grabbing an apple here and a pear there, unscrupulous, so comfortable.

The vendor stall owners are like mice seeing cats, one by one they bow their heads respectfully and dare not make a sound, and some even hand over the things on the stall with both hands, smiling and smiling, not daring to offend.

It's actually the head snake of Cloud Cliff City.

The person at the head was about his early twenties, dressed in fancy clothes, fat head and big ears, and trembling with fat meat, while gnawing on the fruit sent from the fruit stand, while making a loud noise, "It's all clear to Lao Tzu, hurry up and hand over this month's share, otherwise don't blame Lao Tzu for doing it himself, you're not welcome." ”

Many vendors honestly paid the protection fee, and the endless stream of white flowers and silver taels were put away by the thugs behind him.

The Ran family is the head snake of Cloud Cliff City, which has a history of hundreds of years, and it has been an unwritten rule to collude with the city lord here to loot the people's fat and people's ointment.

Shenlongwei has just settled in Cloud Cliff City, and there are many military affairs, so he has no time to take care of these idle matters for the time being.

These people have no fear, they feel that everyone in the world is the same, and when the army leaves, it will be their world again.

It doesn't matter who is the lord of the city, the old rules are still the same, so today is unscrupulous and rampant in the city. What are you doing

A group of bullies came to the old man who Yun Xiyao had bought a head rope before, and the two old men hugged each other, trembling.

The fat-headed, big-eared guy kicked the stall, "Hey, is the old thing deaf or blind?" Didn't you see Lao Tzu coming? I still owe Lao Tzu ten taels of silver last month, if you can't take it out this month, don't let my son see you in Cloud Cliff City in the future! ”

The old man looked up in horror, "How can it be ten taels?" Didn't you say before that there were only one or two? ”

"What's one, two, ten, two? Ben Gongzi said as much as he wanted, do you want to find death? Old stuff? It's really embarrassing. The fat-headed and big-eared brother roared angrily.

The old man choked up and cried when he heard this, "Young Master Ran, please give me a few more days, my wife has been sick for the past few days, and the doctor needs silver, it's not that I can't give it to you now, and it's only a hundred yuan if you count it together." ”

The fat-headed and big-eared brother waved his hand domineeringly, "It's really long-winded, it's just that you are a bad person, and the rules of Young Master Ben let everyone drag it out, and someone came to lift it for Young Master Ben." ”

The surrounding vendors dared not speak out, and no one dared to step forward to meddle with this idle matter.

The big man in front of and behind him stepped forward to make a move. Young Master of the Ran family, the fat-headed and big-eared brother suddenly waved his hand to stop, tilted his head and looked at it for a while, "Young Master Ben looks at the clothes on this dead old woman's body is good, otherwise let's do it, pick up the clothes and give them to Young Master Ben to get the ten taels of silver." ”

"Young Master Ran, this ...... This, absolutely not. The old man didn't think about refusing it......
