Beauty is too weak to be bullied

Chapter 14 No matter what happens

Du Qingtan looked at the shops across the street: "Let's go and pay off the debts of the clothing store first, and then buy some things."

Inside the bookstore, the shopkeeper walked back holding the two books preciously, and said one after another: "Meng Gong! Come and see, is this a rare book from the previous dynasty?"

Under the eaves in the backyard, two men, one old and one young, were playing chess. The old man had a pale face, while the young man had fair skin and black hair, handsome eyebrows and red lips.

Hearing the shout, the old man raised his head and said with a smile: "Listen to the sound, it must be a good thing! Bring it to me quickly."

The young man stood up, took the book and handed it to the old man, glanced at it, and said strangely: "Hey! It turned out to be Xingde!"

This is a book of war handed down from the previous dynasty, which is rare to see.

The young man's eyes sparkled like fire: "Meng Gong, don't grab this book from me, okay?"

Gong Meng stroked his beard and said, "Little friend Dugu, you are really domineering. You eat my stuff and live in mine, and even want to grab my books. It's not kind."

Dugu curled his lips and smiled: "It's not just a matter of a day or two that I'm not kind. I was kicked out by my brother. I have to find a treasure to please him before I can go back. Otherwise, what should I do when you return to God City? Are you going to eat and sleep in the wind?"

Meng Gong shook his head with a smile, and let him read the books.

The yellowed pages of the book unfolded, and a bright red seal of ancient seal books suddenly appeared.

"Du".

The owner put his sleeves on his sleeves and smiled: "I guess it's the little lady of Jingzhao Du's family. I think she looks delicate and timid, and there is no manservant with her. I'm afraid there is no one at home."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Dugu striding out, so he shouted, "Where are you going?"

Dugu said without turning his head, "I suddenly remembered something urgent."

Du Qingtan paid off the debts of the clothing store, picked up two of the most fashionable men's clothes at the moment, and walked slowly on the street, checking to see if anyone was following them.

Cailan followed behind with a few big bags of herbs and ingredients, and said in a loud voice: "I can't buy any more... Otherwise, how can I explain to the eldest lady when I go back?"

Suddenly there are more of these things, and the eldest lady is not blind, so the matter of selling books must be leaked.

"I have my own opinion." Du Qingtan got into the ox cart and told the driver: "Go to Liuxiang, Zhu's restaurant, hurry up."

Someone was indeed following, so she had to find Zhu Dalang quickly.

"Okay!" The coachman was about to raise his whip to start the car, when he suddenly saw a man striding forward from the side of the road, barely stopped in front of the car, and said: "Young master, please make way for me."

Du Qingtan was leaning on Cailan's body to take a nap, but when he heard the sound, he opened his eyes and saw Dugu Buqiu standing in front of the car, half bent and staring at her.

"It's you!" Du Qingtan swept Dugu Buqiu's whole body up and down.

He was still wearing the same old robe, but it had been starched and washed, and a pair of boots had been changed. At least the toes were not exposed, but it seemed that it did not fit well, which showed that his situation was not much better.

Dugu Buqiu folded his arms and leaned against the carriage, looked at her and said, "This is a recovery."

"Thanks to you, it's almost done. I was thinking about when I could meet you so that I can pay the wages owed before." Du Qingtan signaled Cailan to give the money.

Just as Cai Lan was worried, she was also afraid of walking on the street with such a large bag of money, in case she was robbed, it would be over.

So the first thing is to pay off the debts of the clothing store, and now that Dugu doesn't ask for it, let's settle the wages first.

Dugu didn't beg and didn't make a sound, he lowered his eyes to watch Cailan count the money.

After Cailan counted the money, she held on tightly to the money string and couldn't bear to let go. With so much money, it flew away in a short while, which was even more uncomfortable than peeling her skin off.

"Huh?" Du Qingtan snorted through his nostrils, and Cai Lan reluctantly let go.

"A total of [-] words, you count."

"Too much." Dugu Buqiu flicked his slender fingers on the money string, and threw ninety coins back: "Don't try to use these ninety coins to offset my family heirloom."

"It can't be offset." Du Qingtan didn't force it: "I didn't have time to ask last time, who did you sell that knife to? How much did you sell it for? Can you redeem it?"

"No." Dugu Buqiu lowered his eyes and looked at her lazily, his thick and curly eyelashes were sprinkled with golden light, and his skin was so fair that women could be jealous.

"It was too late at that time, and the shop was closed. I was in a hurry to use up the money, so I found someone to sell it on the street."

"..." Du Qingtan didn't know what to do.

After thinking and thinking, I had to say: "Although money can't repay your kindness, and it can't be worth your heirloom sword, it can at least reduce my guilt a little. So, please tell me, this knife is sold. How much?"

"Guilt?"

Dugu Buqiu raised his thick black eyebrows, bent down and leaned towards her, the light in his eyes sparkled, as if a cat had caught a mouse.

Du Qingtan was taken aback by him, and he leaned back uncomfortably, his jaw sticking out.

"Does Wu Niang really think so?"

Dugu Buqiu bared his white teeth and smiled brilliantly: "Indeed, for me, there is only one heirloom sword, which embodies the glory and painstaking efforts of the ancestors, as well as the expectations and blessings for future generations, no matter how much money is repay."

What are you going to do with this string of strings?
No way, you want her, a weak person, to agree with her body, right?
Could it be that her beauty is too rare?

But in the bookstore just now, I didn't see the owner give her more money just because she was amazing!

It can be seen that her beauty is of no use at all.

Du Qingtan hid behind Cailan, and said cautiously: "Then, I can only find a good knife in the future and then compensate you. If it is still not enough, I will make up some money."

"Nothing is worth it." Dugu Buqiu said seriously: "Du Wuniang, has the Xiao family troubled you again these days?"

"I found it. They knocked Uncle Yu unconscious on the street, took away the goods our family made for the garment shop, and took away our livelihood."

Du Qingtan didn't want to talk about this matter, she was anxious to go to Zhu Dalang to do business, so she said goodbye to Dugu: "I have something urgent, I have to go."

"You sell books for money, are you looking for someone to help you?" Dugu didn't ask and refused to give way, instead he got into the car.
