Chapter 44: Expectation

"Baby girl, now that you've eaten, do you have anything you want to play?" When the faces of the three children showed very satisfied smiles, Fan Tongle said hehehe.

"Let's not be busy, you can tell me where the money comes from." Fan Xiaoyu touched his little belly that felt overfed for the first time in many days, and said lazily.

"Okay." Fan Tong nodded hurriedly, then coughed dryly, and told all about what happened last night.

It turned out that he had known that there was a small town here, so he had chosen to spend Fan Xiaoyu's birthday here a few days ago, so he went out in the middle of the night to look for prey, so that he could get some money to the town to invite everyone to have a good meal, and by the way, let everyone rest. After arriving in the forest, Fan Tong hunted ordinary game, while paying attention to the traces on the ground to see if there was any precious prey, but he did not expect to meet a few hunters who also came out to hunt in the middle of the night.

After asking, I learned that they were specially going into the mountains to find a leopard that only appeared last year, since the leopard appeared, the nearby livestock have often suffered, sometimes the owner clearly saw the cheetah leaving with a pig or goat in its mouth, but because it was too afraid of this beast, no one had a way to let it go. Within a few months, the villagers in the vicinity lost their livestock almost every once in a while, so in desperation, they had to hire the most famous hunters and invite them into the mountains to cheetah.

But the leopard is very cunning, the hunters have been searching for five days in a row, sometimes just find its traces, before they can set a trap and it escapes, this is the last night of the hunt, if it is not successful, they have to go home to recuperate for a few days and then start again.

Fan Tong heard this, and the chivalrous heart immediately overflowed, of course, this was just the evaluation in Fan Xiaoyu's heart, in short, Fan Tong immediately said that he could help everyone, and the hunters saw that he only had a simple bow and a crossbow and a wooden stick in his hand, and they didn't want to believe him at first, but anyway, it was the last night, and many people and multiple forces agreed.

There was not much suspense about what happened later, Fan Tong relied on his keen senses and careful observation, and soon found the traces of the golden leopard again, and knocked the golden leopard alive with a wooden stick in his hand, so that the hunters were trapped with the rope they had prepared at the beginning.

"Daddy is amazing!" Although Fan Tong said things very simply, but the child's imagination is rich and endless, Fan Cabbage was the first to clap his hands, full of admiration, Luo Yan's eyes also lit up excitedly, obviously very glad that his master was so powerful.

Fan Xiaoyu smiled and said, "What about later?" ”

Maybe she had read too many TV novels that often exaggerated the description of martial arts masters in her previous life, and the amazement in her heart was not so strong, but she felt that if Fan Tong couldn't even subdue a beast, she would be too sorry for the title of master.

Fan Tong smiled innocently: "Later, those hunters surrounded me, saying that after dawn, they would take me to the town to find the township chief to receive the reward, and let the township chief beat gongs and drums to take me on a tour of the streets." ”

Fan Dai laughed and said: "Ha, it's still on the street, it's good, it's good!" No wonder I saw so many cannon ashes on the ground when I entered the town just now, I said boss, why don't you wait for us to come and then parade the streets, so that Dongdong Xiaoyu and them can be lively. ”

Fan Tong shook his head and said, "I didn't go to the streets. ”

Fan Xiaoyu said thoughtfully: "Did you give them the credit, or did those hunters rob you of the credit?" ”

Fan Tong shook his head again and said, "They didn't rob it, it was I who took the initiative to propose that they say that they beat the leopard." We are not sure whether the government has sent anyone to look for us, or whether it is better not to make a big deal out of it, so I will discuss with them and give me a part of the bounty afterwards. ”

Speaking of the last sentence, Fan Tong's face was a little red, obviously because he felt that it was really difficult for him to ask for compensation from others in such a worldly way.

Fan Xiaoyu smiled slightly and nodded: "I understand." ”

"That...... Xiaoyu, you don't blame Daddy, do you? Fan Tong rubbed his hands and said.

"What do you blame?"

"Because...... Because the reward in the township was originally a hundred taels of silver, but I ...... I only needed twenty taels. Fan Tong slurred cautiously.

"What, a hundred taels of silver?" Fan Xiaoyu lost his voice.

Fan Tong glanced at her quickly, immediately lowered his eyes, and nodded weakly.

Fan Xiaoyu only felt a breath choked in his throat, staring at Fan Tong and almost speechless, Fan Cabbage couldn't help but worry again when she saw her familiar look, for fear that her sister would start to go crazy again after a while.

"One hundred taels, one hundred taels!" Fan Dai shook his head vigorously on the side, and he didn't know if he understood that he was adding fuel to the fire.

Luo Yan sat stiffly in his position, suppressed by this strange atmosphere, only a pair of dark eyes were turning slightly, and it was difficult to understand why his master who was so powerful was so afraid of this little senior sister, as if the little senior sister was not the master's daughter, but his strict mother.

Time seemed to slow down tenfold, and only a few seconds had passed in the half-ring.

Fan Xiaoyu first let out a long breath and said, "Forget it, twenty taels is not a lot." ”

There was silence in the box again, and after another half a ring, Fan Tongcai looked up at her incredulously, and carefully verified: "Xiaoyu, aren't you angry?" ”

"Isn't the safety of our family worth eighty taels of silver?" Fan Xiaoyu deliberately said with a straight face, although Fan Tong pushed out the reasonable money almost for nothing this time, the starting point was for the safety of the family, so as not to attract the attention of outsiders, what was she forgivable. As long as his heart is for his family, even if it is only two taels of silver, she is very happy. However, in other words, if Fan Tong really only took two taels home, she might still be mad.

"Hahahaha...... Big brother, you are still stupid, Xiaoyu is saying that you did the right thing, she doesn't blame you. Fan Dai suddenly let out a burst of laughter, his niece, since she woke up again, her personality has changed greatly, her joy and anger are often invisible, no, it should be said that when she is happy, she looks like she is angry, and when she is really angry, she laughs so sweetly that she doesn't know how sweet it is.

"Hey...... Hey...... I knew my baby girl would understand Daddy. Fan Tong's eyes lit up, and he suddenly felt relaxed, and at the same time, he didn't forget to make another sycophant.

"Hee-hee-......" Fan Cabbage also relieved his heart and laughed happily, for him, there is nothing more reassuring than his sister not being angry.

"Don't be in a hurry to say you understand, I just forgive you this time, if the next time we go away, there is such a good thing to send to the door and you push it out again, I will turn my face." Fan Xiaoyu wanted to continue to make a straight face, but he couldn't help but laugh himself.

"It must be, Daddy will work hard to make money to support his family in the future." Fan Tong immediately straightened up, swearing like a soldier, and the seriousness that seemed to be accepting the general's inspection made everyone laugh for a while.

"What's the use of talking about it, it's true in action." Fan Xiaoyu pursed his lips, untied the purse containing copper coins from his waist, and threw it to him, "Since we have money now, you can go and see if you can find a donkey cart!" ”

Now she has not left the jurisdiction of Yiyang County, for the sake of safety, it is better not to delay, she has had enough of the escape days of eating and sleeping in the open these days, and hopes to rush to Ruzhou as soon as possible to settle down.

Raising his head, looking out of the window full of sunlight, a smile appeared on Fan Xiaoyu's beautiful face, with the remaining fifteen taels of silver, although he still can't afford to buy a house, but presumably renting a small yard is not a problem.

This time, she hopes that she can really have a home, a small family that is safe and stable, and then let the two brothers earn money, Dongdong and Luo Jia go to study, and she can also officially start her studies: to learn more about this era, and to learn martial arts.

After all, since Fan Dai said that her body is naturally a good material for martial arts, and she has indeed experienced the beauty of having light skills from running, then, this talent should not be wasted, right?

In the future, it will definitely get better day by day!
