Dou Po: My days as a mentor at Canaan College

Chapter 116 Are You Here?
About a quarter of an hour later.

In the treasure-appreciating room, Liu Xi took the two-pattern purple gold card handed back by Yafei, and scanned the current amount on it, more than 27 gold coins.

"Mr. Liu Xi, do you also use this card to pay for the medicinal materials on the medicinal material list?"

Ya Fei pointed to the medicinal materials that had been packed in boxes on the long table, and asked aloud.

"Old Opera Valley" just exchanged a few words with Liu Xi after delivering the medicinal materials, and found that Liu Xi didn't like him very much, so he found an excuse and left here again to make a deal. The follow-up was handed over to Ya Fei.

In fact, Yafei alone can handle these matters with ease, but the priceless Qi Gathering Powder at the beginning needs Gu Ni, a serious second-grade pharmacist, to take care of her eyes.

"No, I have a green card here, which is specially used to pay for medicinal materials."

Waving his hand, Liu Xi smiled lightly and took out the green card that Xiao Yan gave him from the ring.

In front of her, Yafei's beautiful eyes saw the green card handed over by Liu Xi, but her lips parted slightly.

At this moment, she really wanted to turn around and leave!

As for why?

The green card in Liu Xi's hand was the first time that "old gentleman" came to auction the "Foundation Establishment Essence" at the Miter Auction. After the auction, she handled it for him personally!

Not to mention the special logo inscribed on it by the auction house, but at the same time there is a string of serial numbers printed on the auction house's magnet.

If it was replaced with any other card, Ya Fei might not have any impression when she brought it again, after all, this card does not record personal information.

But out of curiosity about the mysterious identity of the "Old Mister" at the time, she paid special attention to the card number.

And later on, that "old gentleman" came to the auction house to trade several times, and they all used this card. After several times, she was quite impressed with the number of this green card.

Therefore, once Liu Xi took it out, she immediately recognized it!

The cost of buying the long sword was paid with his own card, and the cost of buying medicinal materials was replaced by this card?
Is this really playing Ya Fei as a fool?
You scum, didn't you solemnly say that the long sword and the medicinal materials were all given by that old gentleman?
What else is there to pay for? ? ?
You have to do a full set of acting!

This way everyone can save face, okay?

Did he really not understand, or did he want to embarrass her on purpose?

"Miss Yafei, what's wrong with you? Are you in a bad mood?"

At the same time, Liu Xi saw that Yafei did not reach out to take the green card for a long time, and saw that her expression was a little dazed, so she couldn't help but said.

"call……"

Letting out a breath silently, Yafei accepted the green card with a forced smile, her sexy body under the cheongsam trembled slightly, and said:
"It's nothing, it's just that I haven't had a good rest recently, it will be fine slowly..."

Seeing this, Liu Xi raised his eyebrows slightly, but said nothing.

He wanted to ask cheaply, did you come to Tiankui?By the way, I would like to say "drink more hot water" from a previous life's scumbag quote with concern.

But after thinking about it, he decided to give up, he was afraid that as soon as the words came out, Ya Fei's hands would tear at his handsome face, and the picture would not be beautiful...

A moment of effort.

After paying the cost of the medicinal materials and completing the transaction, he put all the medicinal materials that had been installed in the auction house into the ring, and was ready to go back.

But before leaving, he walked up to Zhen'er, the maid beside Yafei, and left a sentence:

"Since we have reached Dou Qi Ninth Stage, we should work harder and further gather Dou Qi whirlwind. There is still less than a month left before Canaan Academy enrolls students.

At that time, the instructors of the academy will test each person's realm level, and give talent ratings based on age and cultivation. Those with a good level will get some resource tilts and be assigned to a good class after entering the academy. "

After saying this, Liu Xi slowly left under the watchful eyes of Ya Fei and the others.

……

At the same place, when Liu Xi's figure disappeared into the auction house, Ya Fei took a strange look at Zhen'er who was thinking about something, and asked:
"How did he know that you want to study at Canaan Academy?"

"I... I don't know, I'm probably just guessing..."

Zhen'er said in an uncertain tone.

Seeing this, Ya Fei nodded her head lightly, without asking any more questions, she took light steps and led Zhen'er to the back hall of the auction house.

And following behind Ya Fei, Zhen'er lowered her head, but at this moment she was thinking, how much did her grandfather talk to that scum about her yesterday?
-

The afternoon sun was shining brightly.

After Xiao Yue left Liu Xi's yard, she went straight back to her and her mother's residence.

The mother and daughter lived on the back edge of the Xiao family building complex, close to the back mountain.

This area is mostly where the Xiao family's servants and some of the Xiao family's offshoots who are not doing well live.

At first glance, the houses are all low and flat, the gutters between the houses are dirty and messy, and there are bursts of stench in this summer. Although the place does not look dilapidated, it is difficult to let it go. One can imagine that the Xiao family, which is now the head of the three major families in Wutan City, still has such an area inside.

click...

The door rang.

"Cough cough! Cough cough..., is Yue'er back?" Hearing the sound of opening the door, Xiao Yue's mother coughed violently and asked from the innermost room of the house.

"Mom, it's me."

Xiao Yue responded, closed the door, then walked to the kitchen inside the house, filled a bowl of soup that was still warm in the casserole, and then walked to her mother's room with it.

"Cough...cough..., today...cough...why did you come back so early today?"

The middle-aged woman with a withered complexion reluctantly got up from the couch, coughing continuously.

"The master pharmacist went out for something, and told me that he didn't need to stay there, he could come back earlier." Xiao Yue whispered.

After saying that, she held the soup in one hand and the spoon in the other, planning to feed her mother.

"Cough...cough cough..., no need, you rest on your own, I will do it myself, cough cough...cough..., I have been sick for so many years, and I have not been to the point where I can't move...cough cough..."

The middle-aged woman took the soup bowl with trembling hands, and just got up from the couch for a while, cold sweat broke out on her forehead, her body was trembling, and she was obviously very weak.

She brought the soup bowl to her mouth, tried her best to open her mouth, and poured the medicine in the bowl into her mouth.

Yes, it is "filling", not drinking.

This allows her to save some movement and effort and be more direct.

gollum...gollum...

Whoa whoa whoa whoa

However, because of shaking hands, a lot of soup medicine spilled from the bowl and mouth.

On the side, Xiao Yue felt uncomfortable seeing this situation, but she did not snatch the bowl from her mother's hand, such a scene would be repeated almost every three or two days.

Every time she wanted to feed her mother medicine, but was rejected by him, she actually knew in her heart that it was caused by her mother's stubborn psychology, and she didn't want to be completely a burden and drag on her...

"Hey~ Did you see it just now? Xiao Yue came back so early today!"

"Yeah, don't you say that I didn't pay attention just now, isn't she arranged to serve the lord alchemist? Why did you come back before dark?"

"I guess it can't be helped. There is a mother who has been ill for so many years at home. Maybe she came back halfway to take care of her."

"Hehe, I don't think things are that simple. I heard that the alchemist is a hungry ghost. Could it be that Xiao Yue slept with him? Otherwise, how could he ask to come back so early?"
