He pulled Chen Xiaonian aside and wrote a few words in the palm of her hand.

Chen Xiaonian's eyes suddenly lit up.

The most businessman is the most good at looking at his face, and the shopkeeper Liu is a little embarrassed, thinking that Erlang doesn't want Chen Xiaonian to talk to him, and he wants to say goodbye and leave, Chen Xiaonian has already come to him.

"Shopkeeper, I have a reluctant request, I don't know ......"

Shopkeeper Liu was very bold, "Miss Xiao Nian just said it directly, as long as I can help, I will never say anything." ”

Chen Xiaonian snorted.

"I want to go to the county seat, and I want to ask the shopkeeper to borrow a carriage."

Shopkeeper Liu laughed, "I thought what was the matter, I just needed a carriage to say...... Why don't you rush home now? ”

Chen Xiaonian waved his hand, "I don't need it today, I haven't cleaned up my house yet." Wait for tomorrow, tomorrow I will come again to ask the shopkeeper for borrowing. ”

After talking about the carriage, Chen Xiaonian was relieved again.

Looking at the five taels of silver in his hand, together with the one tael of silver sold today, it was only six taels.

Six taels can buy 100 catties of good rice and noodles, 40 catties of pork, and several sets of clothes......

In addition to the two taels of silver earned yesterday, if it is returned to the gambling house, it only needs to be returned another one hundred and eighteen taels of silver.

After thinking about it, Chen Xiaonian put the silver in his hand, and shouted Erlang to buy some materials, and originally wanted to buy some pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, but when he asked, he knew that the price was high and scared to death, and finally bought some maltose.

Seeing that the two of them took the things back again, Wang, who was still smiling just now, suddenly had red eyes.

"I really can't do anything."

Before Chen Xiaonian could explain, Wang had already sobbed quietly.

"Mother, you misunderstood, someone bought your handkerchief, but I and Erlang were unwilling to sell it."

Wang was stunned, "What's the matter?" ”

Before Chen Xiaonian could speak, Wang was anxious again, "Did people bully you?" ”

Erlang didn't say anything, just took advantage of the fact that it was still early, thinking about going to the mountains first.

Chen Xiaonian called him to stop, "I'll tell my mother about this first, and I'll go up the mountain with you in a while." ”

Turning her head, she said to the Wang family: "Mother, these handkerchiefs and puppets, I want to sell them in the county town by myself." ”

Wang frowned, "Then the fish in the town won't be sent?" ”

She shook her head, "It's going to be delivered." To go to the county seat, we have to go through the town, we can go to the town to deliver fish first, and then go to the county seat. ”

After that, she picked up the cloth tiger, "The silver given by the town is too small, so it is better for us to take it to the county seat and sell it." Mother, I'll draw you a few more looks in a while, and you do it. If you want to go to the county to sell, then you must come in a good way, I have bought all the materials, you can use it with confidence, if it is not enough, I will go to the town tomorrow to buy it. ”

Wang looked over and saw that this time it was all good material, so he opened his mouth and swallowed the words again.

"Eh, mother listens to you."

The two of them went out early today, and they didn't even eat when they rebelled, so they were hungry at this time. Wang kept his food on the stove and could eat it as soon as it was hot.

After eating, Chen Xiaonian carried a basket and followed Erlang up the mountain.

When she arrived in the mountains, Erlang told her not to run around, and he carried a machete into the forest.

The mountain road was rugged, but his steps were steady and his movements were clean and neat, and before Chen Xiaonian could tell him to be careful, the others had already disappeared into the dense forest.

At this time, she remembered that she went up the mountain mainly to pick wild fruits, and she wanted him to show her way, but she didn't expect to forget about this stubble.

The mountain is not so big, since Erlang can find it, she can find it too.

Drilling through a small forest, and crossing a one-person-high ravine, when he raised his head again, Chen Xiaonian looked at the dense and abundant fruit trees in front of him in surprise, which was half an acre.

This is like a wild place, and no one will doubt that someone planted it.

The wild fruit in front of her was growing very well, she picked one and tasted the juice and sweet meat, crispy, and her mouth was full of relish, sweeter than the one Erlang picked for her yesterday.

Making jam or canned food is a rarity in Daqi.

Yesterday she already had an idea in her heart, so she bought maltose back today, but she didn't expect today's fruit to be as sweet as honey, I'm afraid that even maltose will be saved.

Erlang came out of the dense forest, and when he didn't see Chen Xiaonian, he chuckled in his heart.

His eyes narrowed for a moment, looking at the marks on the ground, and he could tell her direction at a glance.

Just before finding the grove, he heard a frightened cry inside, Jiro chuckled in his heart, his figure flashed, and he had already rushed in.

He was extremely fast, and Chen Xiaonian, who accidentally fell into the ravine, only saw a shadow skimming overhead, and his heart instantly panicked.

In the wilderness, in case you encounter a man-eating beast......

Suddenly, the light in the ravine seemed to be blocked by something, Chen Xiaonian's heart skipped two beats, and he raised his head mechanically, but what he saw was Erlang's face.

He looked down at Chen Xiaonian, who fell down the ravine and was full of embarrassment, and didn't say a word, but he seemed to hook the corners of his lips and laugh at her.

Chen Xiaonian was also laughing at herself, and seeing her laughing, the smile on Erlang's lips became more and more obvious.

Two people, one at a height, one stuck in a ravine, laughing so unscrupulously.

It was Erlang who dragged her up from the ravine, Chen Xiaonian wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and pointed to the wild fruit that fell inside, "Help me pick it up, don't lose it." ”

Jiro obediently picked up the fruits and put them back in the basket one by one. Seeing her holding her fingertips like a child, her lips were red, and her fingers were white, Erlang was in a trance for a while.

He smiled helplessly, took out his fingers, and stuffed a clean wild fruit into her hand, meaning that she would eat this clean one.

Walking out of the grove, Chen Xiaonian saw at a glance the pheasants that could not fly away with their feet tied, one large and one small, two.

She said happily, "I saw you with a machete, I thought you were going to chop wood, but I didn't expect you to go hunting." ”

Erlang also wanted to say that he thought that Chen Xiaonian was carrying a basket to pick wild vegetables, but he didn't expect it to pick wild fruits.

When she went down the mountain, seeing that she was struggling to walk, Jiro asked her to pull her arm.

Chen Xiaonian's heart was suffocated. I don't know when these things have happened so naturally between the two......

Jiro followed her footsteps all the way, and it took a while to reach the bottom of the mountain.

He carried a bamboo basket in his left hand and two pheasants in his right hand, and walked behind Chen Xiaonian.

Suddenly, his expression changed slightly, and he reached out to stop her.

"What's wrong?"

I saw Erlang put down the things in his hand and squatted in front of her, about to lift her trouser legs.

Chen Xiaonian subconsciously wanted to dodge, but Erlang held steady with one hand, and lifted her trouser leg with the other.

Looking at her swollen ankles, Erlang's eyes sank.

No wonder she looked so ugly when she was just pulled out of the ravine.

No wonder she's walking so slowly.

He must have hurt his foot when he fell down the ravine.

Jiro clenched his fists.

He should have found out a long time ago.
