Chapter 44 Dowry Money

It seems that the master saw the blood mud in the city, which was left by Li Huan, and Li Huan was the ghoul who entered the city, no wonder the hut was gloomy and cold, but he was not afraid of the heat and spells like the brazier, this ghoul was afraid that there was some Taoism on his body.

"In recent days, Luoyang has not been peaceful, there have been several murders one after another, all of which were sucked dry of blood, could it be that Li Huan did it? So what do we do next? Ruan Yuan asked.

"Wait and see what happens, don't startle the snake." Yi Ling smiled and turned his head, with a lightness in his words, he said this to ask Ruan Yuan not to meddle in this matter, Li Huan was definitely not easy to deal with, he didn't want her to be in danger.

Yi Ling took the oil umbrella in Ruan Yuan's hand again, and put the umbrella in it with the demon collection pot, "This thing is dirty." ”

Knowing that Ruan Yuan was still worried about this matter, he reached out and touched Ruan Yuan's head, deliberately mentioned Aunt Wang, changed the topic, and relieved Ruan Yuan, "Okay, don't you still want to see your Aunt Wang?" You have a sad face like this, you Aunt Wang can't worry? ”

Ruan Yuan barely pulled out a smiling face and took Yi Ling to the place where she used to live, "What, the house is very broken and dirty, even more broken than the east entrance of the city......"

Yi Ling understood Ruan Yuan's low self-esteem, and deliberately shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "What's this, I used to sleep in the stable when I was poor, and I will never forget the smell of horse manure in the sky." ”

Ruan Yuan smiled, the young man in front of him could always know what she was thinking, and maintained Ruan Yuan's self-esteem in his own way.

"Flowing clouds?" In a trance, Ruan Yuan seemed to see a familiar figure and walked into a pharmacy.

"What's wrong?" Sensing Ruan Yuan's distraction, Yi Ling couldn't help but ask.

Ruan Yuan replied, "I seem to have seen Liuyun, it's okay, maybe it's an illusion, let's go." ”

Liuyun walked to the counter and took out the mustache, "Boss, do you have this medicinal herb here?" ”

The boss with gold-rimmed eyes, is a very capable middle-aged man, Cao Wen took the medicinal materials in his hand, raised his eyes to take a closer look, shook his head and said, "This is a treasure, it is difficult to buy a tael of gold, how can I have a small shop like this?" The girl was really joking. ”

"This Luoyang City is so big, there is always a place to sell, boss, can you tell me one or two?" As he spoke, Liuyun took out a silver ingot from his arms, put it on the table, and slowly pushed it in front of Cao Wen.

Cao Wen didn't reach out to take the silver, and said with a smile, "It's really not a place to sell, this medicinal material comes from the Western Regions, some time ago there was a monster eating people, and no one dared to go to the Western Regions to collect medicine, this treasure is very rare in Luoyang City now, the girl just takes the silver, and I can't say where it is sold." ”

"Even if there are individual pharmacies with this treasure, then they have to be supplied, and it will become the treasure of the town store." After Cao asked and joked, he seemed to think of something again, "However, although it is not sold, I know that there is a wealthy family that purchased a large number of mustaches at home half a year ago." ”

"Can the shopkeeper tell me a thing or two?" Liuyun asked.

"Chen Mansion, Chen Qian, that's a master who is not easy to mess with, he is very domineering and ruthless, he is the head snake of our place, if the girl goes, I am afraid that it will end in vain." Cao Wen smiled and lowered his head to fiddle with the abacus in his hand, "I also heard that Chen Qian four months ago, I don't know what bad luck he had, when he went out to play, he fell into the lake from the boat, and his servants took a lot of effort to salvage him from the lake. ”

"Hit the devil?" What kind of evil can this good guy hit? Liuyun asked again, "What kind of crazy things are you talking about?" ”

Cao Wen glanced up and looked around, and after making sure that no one was paying attention to them, he leaned over and whispered, "I said that I saw a monster in the lake, it was a dragon, Chen Qian said that the dragon was about to eat him with its mouth open, and he was frightened, so he went crazy to this point." ”

Dragon? After hearing this, Liuyun sneered quietly, if you want to talk about this Jiaolong, I am afraid that there is only him in this Luoyang City, "Shopkeeper, let me ask a few more words, what is the festival between Ruan Yuan and Chen Qian, the new Taoist of Yangshan." ”

"Yes, Chen Qian is so beautiful, before this, he often blocked Miss Ruan's way, and wanted Miss Ruan to be his concubine, the most outrageous time was to find a few strong men, holding a cloth, and stunning Miss Ruan with medicine, and bringing it back to Chen's mansion, Miss Ruan almost lost her chastity, so Chen Qian now ended up like this, and he really deserved it!" Cao Wen also said indignantly, it seems that if this "tumor" is taken away by God, it will also be a great thing.

Lightly than Ruan Yuan, that's right, Ji Xingzhou, Ji Xingzhou, you think you do it seamlessly, and have you ever thought that she would come back alive, thinking of this, Liuyun's eyes became ruthless, and he only hurriedly said "Thank you, shopkeeper", and turned to leave.

"Aunt Wang, are you there? I am back. Ruan Yuan stepped into the house carrying a bag of millet.

As Ruan Yuan said, the house is really broken, the wood door is broken, the hole in the roof is covered with a wooden board, the window is also full of holes, when I walked into the house, I found that there was not even a bed here, only the corner of the wall was covered with straw and a few tattered quilts, there was a small pot in the center of the room, and there was a cabinet with a missing leg in the wall, and a cabinet of damp yellow paper books was piled up inside.

Ruan Yuan wanted to take Aunt Wang to the east entrance of the city, but Aunt Wang didn't want to live or die, and scolded Ruan Yuan with a strange temper, saying that he was dead, and he would die in this house, and Ruan Yuan was not allowed to buy furniture, otherwise he would be angry and not eat, which made Ruan Yuan have a headache, so Ruan Yuan could only stay in this broken house to take care of Aunt Wang.

At this time, Aunt Wang was holding a bowl of steaming wild vegetable soup, leaning against the wall, and when she heard Ruan Yuan's voice, she looked for the source of the voice, and said with a smile, "Xiao Yuan? Xiao Yuan, are you back? ”

Ruan Yuan put the millet next to the cupboard, walked over, squatted in front of Aunt Wang, and held her hand, "It's me, Aunt Wang, why are you alone, Xiao Miao?" ”

"He went to the street, early in the morning, and hasn't come back yet." Aunt Wang replied slowly.

"This stinky boy, won't he run out to play again!" Ruan Yuan hated iron and steel, Xiao Miao was playful by nature, and I don't know if Xiao Miao had taken good care of Aunt Wang in the days she was gone.

Aunt Wang, who had lost her eyesight, had extremely sensitive ears, and as early as when Ruan Yuan stepped into the room, she heard the footsteps of another person, which was very unfamiliar, and now she heard Yi Ling's coughing again, so she asked, "Xiao Yuan, is anyone else coming?" ”

"Aunt Wang, I'm looking at Yang Mountain, Ruan Yuan's senior brother Yi Ling," without waiting for Ruan Yuan to speak, Yi Ling reported to his family.

Aunt Wang nodded thoughtfully, "It turned out to be Yi Xiaodao, before Xiao Yuan went up the mountain, I heard Xiao Yuan mention it, Xiao Yuan didn't cause you trouble." ”

"Aunt Wang." Ruan Yuan gently pushed Aunt Wang and said coquettishly.

Yi Ling put his hand on the tip of his nose and chuckled, "Don't bother, little junior sister thinks it's very good." ”

Ruan Yuan raised his head and glanced at Yi Ling, and said in his heart, you are interested.

Ruan Yuan retracted his gaze, took out the money bag from his arms, took Mrs. Wang's hand, and put the money bag in Mrs. Wang's hand, "Mrs. Wang, you keep this silver." ”

Aunt Wang hurriedly pushed it away and didn't pick up the money bag, "Don't, don't, Xiao Yuan, it's not easy for you to make money, you keep it yourself." ”

"Aunt Wang, I have money, besides, I now live in Wangyang Mountain, and I don't have to worry about food and clothing." Nguyen Yuan Dao.

"That's not possible, you are a girl's family, how can you do without some silver, besides, you are seventeen now, when it is time to get married, you have to save it, leave the dowry money for yourself, didn't you tell me that you like Chen Wen, the youngest son of the Chen butcher's family, what if you don't leave some dowry money for yourself? In the future, if you get married, you must not be bullied. Aunt Wang said that she would not accept the money.

Aunt Wang suddenly mentioned the past, Ruan Yuan was so embarrassed that she could only cough vigorously, trying to stop Aunt Wang from continuing.

Aunt Wang only thought that Ruan Yuan was choking, and while carrying Ruan Yuanshun's back, she continued to speak, "Why are you still coughing, don't worry, I've asked for you, this month, although Chen Wen was forced by his mother to kiss a few times, but the young man didn't nod his head in agreement, and he didn't set any family affairs, although our family is surrounded by four walls, and the Chen family is climbing high, but the two of you are happy, and the Chen butcher and his mother-in-law are reluctant, and they can't help it......"

Yi Ling listened from the sidelines, his face was ugly, but there was a sneer on his lips, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Ruan Yuan finally couldn't hold on, grabbed Aunt Wang's hand, and forcibly interrupted, "Aunt Wang, Aunt Wang, you don't have to worry about the dowry money, I have money in this line quickly, I can save it, what is it, you take this silver, it's cold and you have a headache, remember to wrap your head with a headscarf, and remember to ask Xiao Miao to grab some medicine for you." We still have something to do, so let's go first, you and Xiao Miao take care. ”

Where did Ruan Yuan dare to stay longer, put the silver on Aunt Wang's lap, pulled Yi Ling and ran away, leaving only Aunt Wang to call her name in the house.

Ruan Yuan just wanted to escape, ran too fast, and bumped into Xiao Miao who ran back around the corner, and both of them were knocked to the ground.

Xiao Miao rubbed her forehead and scolded, "Who the hell doesn't have long eyes, dare to hit the master!" ”

Yi Ling turned around and glared at Xiao Miao fiercely.

Xiao Miao immediately stopped her voice and climbed a few steps back, for fear of being beaten, she said in her heart, so fierce!

Yi Ling walked to Ruan Yuan's side again, stretched out his hand, and said angrily, "Get up." ”

Ruan Yuan was just about to put his hand on it, when he heard a familiar male voice again, "Ah Yuan? ”

Ruan Yuan looked sideways, it was Chen Wen, it was really bromine, so he could only put his hand on Chen Wen's hand with a haha, "Chen Wen, why are you here?" ”

Yi Ling looked at his empty hands, shook them, and leaned against the wall with his hands around them, gritted his back molars, snorted coldly, frowned and glared at Chen Wen fiercely, thinking that this was Chen Xiucai in the mouth of the small medicine jar?

Xiao Miao also saw the person who was coming, and hurriedly went to help Ruan Yuan, "Sister Xiao Yuan, why did you come back." ”

Ruan Yuan grabbed Xiao Miao's ears and said viciously, "Stinky boy, who did you scold just now, you are impatient, right?" ”

"Wrong, wrong, Sister Xiao Yuan, I was wrong, be merciful, be merciful......" Xiao Miao begged for mercy in pain.

Ruan Yuan let go of his hand and asked again, "You don't take good care of your mother-in-law at home, where did you go?" ”
