In the Fu'an Building in the town, Cheng Xian, who came out of prison, sat at the table and sipped a small wine by himself. Thinking in his heart, after he came out, he found the splash in the town to inquire about the news of the girl who caused him to be in prison at that time, and there should be news in the past two days......

At this time, a man who looked sloppy walked in from the door, wearing an open soap coat and coarse linen trousers with missing trouser legs. After entering the door, he took a look and walked straight towards Cheng Xian.

"Master, you're eating." Said the man with a flattering face.

"Hmm. How's the inquiry? Cheng Xian looked at the man in front of him with disdain, and replied casually.

"Hey...... Live up to your trust and inquire. The little lady you asked me to check is a local, but ...... But. ”

This scruffyly dressed man is one of the few people in the town who live on deception for many years, and most of the people who live in the town are familiar with him. Named Chang Wu, he likes to inquire about things when he walks the streets and alleys on weekdays, and when he encounters an opportunity, he deceives an outsider and steals the chickens and ducks of the residents of the town. The big evil does not make small mistakes, which constantly provokes the resentment of the townspeople.

"Tell me if you hear something. The silver is indispensable to yours, and you can't do it! Cheng Xian raised his eyes and looked at Chang Wu a little unhappy, and looked at Chang Wu with a flattering face, and became a little more disgusted.

"Yes, that girl's surname is Xi, she is a descendant of the Xi family who walked out of the town a few years ago, and I heard that she was sent back to the old house a few years ago to recuperate. I heard her neighbor say that she was lost a few days ago, and I don't know if it's true or not...... "Chang Wu chattered and told Cheng Xian what he heard, and sat opposite with Cheng Xian's acquiescence, ate the food, and poured himself a glass of wine to drink.

At this time, Xi Ningyu, who was remembered, was sitting in the house talking with Wen Ping'an, who had just been called back by Uncle Wen, and his wife Meng's family.

"Ping'an, I called you back this time because I thought that now the young lady is concocting medicinal materials and selling them to the medical hall, and she sees more and more ways to live. Miss is weak, and the fish can't make a lot of effort at the same age as Miss, so I plan to let the two of you come back to help. Uncle Wen, who was sitting on the stool, took a puff of dry tobacco and said: "You just quit the way of life on the village over there, your mother and I are getting older, and in the future, I will point to you and your daughter-in-law to help Miss Eduarry more, and come back early to get acquainted." After finishing speaking, Uncle Wen filled the dry tobacco stick with tobacco leaves, lit a fire, smoked two sips, and looked at his son.

"Daddy. I'm doing a good job with Ping'an over there, and I suddenly want to talk about this...... I'm afraid it's hard to talk to the dealer in charge! Wen Ping'an, who was sitting on the low stool, had not yet spoken, and his wife Meng Shi continued Uncle Wen's words.

"Huh? Why is it hard to say? Have you sold yourself into slavery or are you in debt? Uncle Wen knocked on the cigarette stick and said. There was a sense of unhappiness in his words, and his face showed a little impatience.

"Let your family come back to help Miss, but also for your future well. What's wrong? Have you forgotten the favor that the eldest lady gave to our family? Hum! Uncle Wen said, looked up at his honest son, and was a little resentful.

"Father-in-law, that's a bit heavier. The favor of the eldest lady is in my heart! It's just that although Ping An has no ability, he is a real person. I am usually willing to do my work, and I have worked hard, and I am never lazy and slippery. The steward of the village over there is quite important, as if he has the meaning of mentioning it. This abruptly resigned......" Meng said unwillingly.

Mother Xue, who was sitting on the side and tending to the herbs, also spoke at this time: "Huimei." Let the two of you come back, first, to help Miss, and second. Actually, it's for the good of the two of you. ”

Meng Shi saw that her mother-in-law agreed to let the two of them come back as soon as she opened her mouth, and she knew in her heart that there was no other choice for this matter, because since she married Wen Ping'an, it had been seen for a long time, and the Wen family seemed to talk to her father-in-law. But in fact, it was actually her mother-in-law Xue Ma who really paid attention to the decision and made the decision, and now that Mother Xue opened her mouth, she knew that this matter was basically decided, but she was really not very happy in her heart.

Xi Ningyu, who was sitting on a chair drinking tea, also kept looking at Wen Ping'an's family.

Before the original owner died, I am afraid that he never cared about Mother Xue's family, and he may be familiar with Mother Xue and Uncle Wen at ordinary times. Because Xi Ningyu could hardly find any impression of Wen Ping'an and his wife in the memory of the original owner, in order to have less trouble in the future, Xi Ningyu took advantage of this meeting to take a closer look. It can be seen that Wen Ping'an is not good at words, and he always nods when he listens to his father's words. He never looked at himself secretly, and he saluted and sat aside from the time he entered the house.

Although his wife Meng Shi looked a little thoughtful, no matter how she said and looked, or after hearing the words of her in-laws, although she had different ideas, she did not lose her manners, and she looked like she was also a polite person.

I've watched it for so long and listened to it for so long. After having a general understanding of the two of them, Xi Ningyu put down the water glass in his hand and said, "It's indeed a bit reckless to rashly ask the two of you to come back to help me, but it's really because I lack manpower to help." As you know, there is no one you can trust here except for yours. ”

Looking at Meng Shi and then at Wen Ping'an, Xi Ningyu continued: "It is a lot of strength to work on the village, although Huimei's sister-in-law said that the manager of the village is interested in mentioning Brother Ping'an. But think about it, what position can you mention again? It's always better to have a skill and learn a skill, isn't it? ”

"Miss, what do you mean by a skill?" When Meng heard Xi Ningyu say that he was good at a skill, his heart moved. I feel that if I can learn something, she and Wen Ping'an will have a relationship in the future.

When Xi Ningyu saw Meng Shi asking, she knew that this woman was afraid that she had some thoughts in her heart. Then he smiled faintly and said, "I plan to let you husband and wife follow me to learn how to recognize and collect medicine and make medicine at home." You have learned these skills with your heart, and there will always be a day when you will get ahead in the future, no, it is better than relying on a lot of strength, and then being valued by others, there is not much room for improvement. After speaking, Xi Ningyu sighed lightly. It's really embarrassing to think about it. It's so difficult to have no available people around, as if you have to beg others to learn from others.

After saying this, Meng Shi also felt that what Xi Ningyu said was reasonable, and if he didn't have the ability to do anything, no matter how much strength he had, he was afraid that he wouldn't have a good future. Although she hasn't felt how Wen Ping'an has been since she got married, it's always good to be able to share more skills. He also agreed to go back to talk to Zhuangzi, quit his job and came back to follow Xi Ningyu to learn the craft of collecting medicine and medicine.

After Xi Ningyu went through this, she also planned in her heart that she had time to find a few helpers available to her, otherwise she wouldn't be able to do anything by herself in the future, and it would be as difficult as today.

Early this morning, Xi Ningyu took the fish out early in the morning to prepare to go to Pishan to collect medicine. And Cheng Xian was guarding outside the Xi family's old house with a few family members at this time, probing his brain from time to time.

"Master! You see, there are two young girls from the house. ”

When one of the family members saw Xi Ningyu and Yu'er going out, he immediately turned his head and told Cheng Xian, who was dozing off behind him and his head was sinking.

Cheng Xian, who was supposed to get up early every day for the past few days, watched Cheng Xian, who had not slept enough and was napping on the side, listened to the words of the family, and his half-squinted eyes opened with a spirit. He dragged the family back with his hand and said, "Go away, I'll see!" ”

Cheng Xian, who poked out his head, stared at Xi Ningyu's master and servant who came out of the door, and watched the two turn around and go towards the north gate.

"Come here, you two follow." Cheng Xian beckoned and instructed the family next to him to secretly follow Xi Ningyu.
