Chapter 12 I Thank You For Being
When it was time to leave, the villagers suddenly stood up, and they tried their best to keep Xie Cheng.

"Miss Xie, why don't you stay and have lunch with me."

Xie Cheng glanced around. This family is poor, and one more person is equivalent to getting an extra meal. She politely refused.

"No, I'm not hungry now, so I'll go back first."

Seeing her indifferent appearance, the villagers were not angry either.

"These little ladies are different from the rumors."

From other people's mouths, we can know that Xie Cheng is a domineering, ruthless person who will do anything to achieve his goals.

But today she treated them, and she didn't charge any money, and the favorability of the villagers also skyrocketed.

Mo Qiubai who was standing aside had a turbulent look in his eyes.

After returning home, Xie Cheng carried the basket on her back again. She did not forget the purpose of today, to go to the town to see if there was any work that could make money.

When walking halfway, she bumped into Mo Qiubai again, and the man standing opposite had a look of embarrassment on his face.

"Why are you here at this hour?"

Seeing the smile on her face, Mo Qiubai scratched the back of his head.

"I forgot to tell you something just now. I am afraid that someone will poison the villagers in the future, so can I ask you to go with me to find out the source of this poison."

He was very nervous. Although Xie Cheng has a gentle personality now, maybe she was just pretending, and she had other goals in mind.

However, he would definitely not be able to find out the clues behind it all by himself.

Under Mo Qiubai's nervous gaze, Xie Cheng nodded.

"Okay, but I have to wait a while, I'm going to town now."

The world is big, and the food is the biggest.

The rice tanks and water tanks at home are empty. If they don't exchange some money back, the whole family will really go hungry.

Seeing the expression on Mo Qiubai's face, Xie Cheng took off the basket on his back with smooth movements and handed it to him.

Mo Qiubai looked puzzled.

"Just now you asked me to do something, you big man, naturally you have to help me carry the basket."

Just got a free labor. Looking at her white teeth, Mo Qiubai's ears suddenly became hot. When he took the basket, his hands were still trembling.

……

The two went to the town together.

The town is still quite lively, there are a lot of small vendors, looking at the gadgets on the ground, Xie Cheng's interest was aroused.

"Boss, how did you sell this thing?"

The small vendor sitting on the ground raised his eyebrows slightly, and when he saw Xie Cheng, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"I don't know what this little lady wants?"

Xie Cheng's gaze was lingering on the gadgets on the ground, and he didn't notice the vulgar eyes of the vendor at all, while Mo Qiubai's face gradually darkened.

"Just tell me directly."

He turned sideways, blocking the vendor's view.

Looking at the tall Mo Qiubai in front of her, a trace of regret appeared in the vendor's eyes, and she quickly looked away.

"The gadgets in the front row only cost three renminbi, the ones in the middle row cost five renminbi, and the ones in the last row are the most expensive and cost [-] renminbi. Seeing how well-dressed you are, you should be here to buy the last row. little thing."

Isn't this talking nonsense with your eyes open?They were dressed in sackcloth, and the only thing that stood out from them was their faces.

There are some wooden products on the ground. Apart from other things, the craftsmanship of this small vendor is still good, and the carvings of the twelve zodiac signs are all lifelike.

"Well, give me a snake."

Hearing this, a ripple flashed in the vendor's eyes.

"Are you sure? Everyone else thinks snakes are inauspicious."

It's just a wooden bracelet, if there is anything auspicious, Xie Cheng nodded.

"Pack it up for me."

The small vendor stopped talking, he took a pink handkerchief to wrap the wooden bracelet, and solemnly handed it to Xie Cheng.

"Good luck."

Why did this sound so strange? Xie Cheng put the bracelet into the basket, and when she turned around to leave, the neighing of the horse suddenly echoed throughout the street.

"Get out of the way."

The people on the horseback are a group of rough men, their looks are extremely rough, and their looks are indescribable, when Xie Cheng was about to hide to the side

The leader suddenly gave an evil smile, and Xie Cheng's bright and charming face was reflected in his pupils, at least in this small town, it was particularly prominent.

"Little lady, where are you from?"

Hearing this, Xie Cheng didn't pay attention to it, but her sleeve was pulled by this man.

"You are so brave, you dare to ignore me, I like it."

Are you sick?At this moment, there were ten thousand obscene words in her mind, and she didn't know whether to say them or not.

Seeing this, Mo Qiubai at the side hurriedly bowed to the leader.

"Sorry, sir, this is the villain's younger sister. She has never been here before, and naturally she doesn't know you. Please forgive me."

A flash of surprise flashed in Xie Cheng's eyes, Mo Qiubai would actually save her from the siege, it's really been a long time.

The person sitting on the horseback suddenly sneered: "What about your sister, even if the Heavenly King Lao Tzu comes today, I will take this woman back to be my wife."

He stretched out his hand directly, and Mo Qiubai reacted very quickly, and she quickly stopped Xie Cheng's waist.

"Please respect yourself, sir."

The rough palm was still hot, Xie Cheng's face was flushed, and her waist was the most sensitive place, and she almost yelled just now.

The atmosphere gradually became anxious, and just when everyone thought that Mo Qiubai was about to get a fat beating, the sound of drums and gongs suddenly sounded not far ahead.

The voice made the leader sigh, and he took a hard look at Mo Qiubai.

"The future will be long, just wait for me."

After saying this, he left here with the people behind him.

Mo Qiubai heaved a sigh of relief as the group of people drifted away, and it was because of this that he felt the soft touch under the palm.

The beating of his heart gradually accelerated, he quickly took a step back, and bowed slightly to Xie Cheng.

"I'm really sorry. I had to do it just now. Please forgive me, girl."

Seeing his self-blaming eyes, Xie Cheng was very helpless, she didn't take what happened just now to her heart at all

Women in this dynasty attached great importance to chastity. If anyone insulted them, they would die on the spot, but Xie Cheng is a woman in the new era, so she doesn't care at all.

"It's okay, I should thank you, but it's a pity that the group of people just now didn't teach them a lesson."
