The Eighteenth Scourge [Reward for Sleep]
The thatched walls of Erniu's house are not sheltered from the wind, and the tiles do not block the rain. ε «?δΈ?Chinese Net? There are only a handful of furnishings in the β₯β β.β₯8=1β€Z=β.COM room. There is really no extra room at home, and even the little princess in Aunt Zhang's mouth is in the same room as Erniu, with only a blocking curtain in the middle.
Liu Yibai only squeezed a bed with Erniu at night, although the little princess rarely came back, but he was also embarrassed to sleep in a girl's bed, which is a very rude thing, if you really slept in a yellow flower girl's bed, then congratulations, you are about to get married.
Although he was a little unaccustomed to it, Liu Yibai still slept soundly and peacefully this night.
Early the next morning, Er Niu woke up the sleeping Liu Yibai, "Brother Xiaobai, get up for breakfast, it's time to go with me to collect the night incense after eating." β
Liu Yibai smiled and motioned for Erniu to eat first. He sat on the edge of the bed, his sword eyebrows furrowed slightly, with his current cultivation, even a grandmaster master who was good at concealing his aura could detect it at the first time, and now that an ordinary person had already touched his body, he appeared, which was undoubtedly something that shocked him.
"Could it be that I instinctively think of myself as an ordinary person?" Shaking his head, after forcibly erasing these messy thoughts, Liu Yibai ate breakfast and followed Erniu to the town with a dung bucket.
The road in the mountains is not too difficult to walk, and in his physique, walking more than 20 miles is like playing. He was accompanied by eight young men from the same village, all of whom were following Erniu to eat.
Soon, after entering the town, they finished collecting the night incense that others had packed last night, and the group happily walked home.
When the pedestrians along the road saw them coming, they all looked disgusted and hurriedly fled with their mouths and noses covered.
"Stinks ....."
"These people who collect night incense are here again, stay away from them...."
"It stinks, it really affects my appetite.."
....
Listening to the scolding of passers-by, Erniu and the others didn't care at all, they had long been accustomed to the cold words of others, which was just a small thing that they had to experience every day.
"Although we are doing cheap business, we also have rules and jargon. This stool is called human zhonghuang, this dung water, we call it golden juice, and that smell, we call it mulberry incense...."Erniu walked and popularized some knowledge of collecting night incense to Liu Yibai. Speaking of this, he laughed and said, "Isn't this name very magnificent?"
The other eight young men all smiled knowingly when they heard this, and they echoed it one after another.
Seeing that Liu Yibai listened seriously, Er Niu also had the heart to teach him, and continued: "In order not to let others hate us, we have to remind people to get out of the way." Just like this, he paused, "People are yellow, wood is fragrant, and there are two barrels of gold juice, beware of it...."
After he finished speaking, the eight young men behind him also shouted like this, Liu Yibai smiled and joined their team.
....
Day after day, time just passed. Liu Yibai only took ten days from the beginning of his restraint to his current familiarity. Erniu and others praised him for his good talent and suitability for doing this business, and he will definitely have a future in the future.
That night, Liu Yibai suddenly woke up from his sleep, he hadn't felt this way for a long time. Someone came in the room, and in the bright moonlight, it could be seen that it was a woman with a good figure, she dragged her body into the room tiredly, took off her coat, and revealed her white back, but the obvious scars on her back were shocking, she slowly closed the curtain, and after a while there was an even sound of breathing.
"It should be the little princess in Aunt Zhang's mouth, her daughter..."Liu Yibai turned over, didn't care, and fell asleep again.
The morning sun is particularly dazzling, and it is a good day to think of again. At this time of the day, Erniu would ask Liu Yibai to get up, and he gradually got used to it, although he knew that it was not a good thing, but he didn't deliberately stop it.
"The little princess has brought us something delicious again, Xiaobai, come and eat. Outside the door, Aunt Zhang's eager shout came.
Liu Yibai answered, then got up, and bumped into the little princess who opened the curtain, both of them were stunned, and then walked out in tacit understanding.
"This is my little princess, you can call her Tian Tian in the future. Seeing that both of them sat down, Aunt Zhang tore a piece of chicken leg and handed it to Liu Yibai, and at the same time introduced her daughter to her.
"Let the little princess eat first. Liu Yibai looked at the little princess and smiled slightly.
"You eat, you eat, we will be a family in the future, and there are many good days waiting for us." Aunt Zhang ripped off a piece of chicken leg and handed it to the little princess, her eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile.
The days were simple but warm, and breakfast was spent in a very pleasant atmosphere.
Out of the door, Liu Yibai saw the little princess sitting by the small pond in front of the door with his shoulders crossed, he walked over unconsciously, and said softly: "Beaten again?"
"Well, do you think I'm cheap?"
β...β
"I decided not to go back. β
"Oh"
"You know what? I have saved up two hundred taels of silver, and I want to buy a piece of land at home to farm, so that I can live happily ever after. β
"You're not afraid that they'll catch you back?"
"Don't be afraid, with a man who is willing to be stabbed for me, there is nothing to be afraid of in this world. I know you're going to protect me...."
...
Liu Yibai was silent for a long time, took out more than a dozen copper plates from his arms and stuffed them into her palm, and said lightly: "Tianxiang, I will give you all the money I earn in the future." β
He turned around and joined everyone in the village, and the corner of Tianxiang's mouth behind him showed a subtle smile, like a ripple on his face, which quickly crossed his face, and then condensed into two sparks in his eyes, and disappeared into the depths of the eye wave in an instant.
...
On this day, Tianxiang's family went out collectively, and even Erniu and Liu Yibai had a rare day off. Tianxiang was as cheerful as a lark, she said that she wanted to buy something for the family, and by the way, she bought some change of clothes for Liu Yibai, and she looked like a little lady who was married to a woman.
Red Apricot Building
The old bustard stood tremblingly in front of a majestic middle-aged man, and he didn't dare to come out.
"The cheapest bitch is used to serve the most difficult guests, Tianxiang is gone, who will greet the cheapest guest?" The middle-aged man spit out a few grape seeds and glanced at the boss, "You?"
"Big... Boss, I'm getting old.," the old bustard sneered.
"So what to do?"
"Uh.... Send someone to get him back. The turtle next to the bustard said in a timely manner.
"Hurry up...."The big boss's fluttering voice listened to the ears of the old bustard and the turtle gong, like a rune paper urging life, at the moment, the two did not dare to delay, and immediately ordered the thugs to go out.
