Chapter 72
But not long after the village head Liu Dahai led the villagers out, he ran into Nan Xing who was sitting on the back of a donkey in high spirits.

"Father, am I right? Is that Nan Xing?" Liu Tong asked in surprise.

"It seems like, why is she sitting on top of a donkey..."

"Behind the donkey, there seems to be a mule..."

"Behind the mule is the cow..."

"Your cow, the village chief, is your cow..."

"It's them, I found it, I found it, Nan Xing and the others came back..."

……

Liu Tong took the lead to lead people up, and then the village chief Liu Dahai also led people to follow.

The village chief Liu Dahai thought he was dazzled, so he wiped his eyes and asked, "Nan Xing, where did you get your donkeys and mules?"

Nan Xing looked at the crowd in astonishment, and after a while he replied weakly: "... I bought it, is there any problem?"

"...I bought it? No, no problem..." Liu Dahai, the village head, tried to take a few deep breaths, feeling mixed feelings in his heart.

Sure enough, his wife was right, this was the last time they borrowed their family's ox cart.

Back then, in order to buy this cow, their family not only sold their two acres of dry land, but also sold everything that could be sold at home.

He carefully squinted at the donkey and mule. They were full of energy and had strong limbs. He reckoned that it would cost a lot of money to buy them.

At this time, Luo Yunfei also ran over with Ji Xiangyan and Jiang Yanhua.

When they saw Nan Xing jumping off the donkey and walking towards them, they couldn't help crying.

This time they were scared to death, and if they didn't come back so late, they really thought they had met a pervert.

Nan Xing quickly comforted: "Girls, am I fine? Chrysanthemum and Meizi are fine too. I also bought you a donkey and a mule. You see, this donkey is very energetic. Well, there is also this mule, its stamina is good, it can be used to carry goods in the future..."

She said a lot, not only Luo Yunfei and the others were stunned, but the villagers were also shocked.

Why did I just go to the county town and come back full of rewards?
Last time, they just went to Gong Town...

The villagers looked at them in disbelief, and when they looked at the donkey and mule they brought back, their eyes were full of envy.

Liu Xiaodou limped over and said happily, "You are finally back. I was scared to death when I heard that you might be in danger."

Nan Xing patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I am born with great fortune, no, I brought back a lot of apricot cores for you this trip."

Liu Xiaodou followed her gestures and saw that the ten baskets on the mule cart were filled with apricot cores, and she was overjoyed.

When Liu Rong and the others saw their father running over, they thought something happened at home, and their faces turned blue with fright.

After figuring out what was going on, Nan Xing and the others almost burst out laughing.

After the misunderstanding was resolved, the village head Liu Dahai led their family's ox cart back.

Liu Rong and others also followed their father home.

Of course, they will share the big meat buns given to them by Nan Xing, which is now known to the adults.

Liu Xiaodou took the mule cart to his house, and after unloading the apricot pits, he took the mule cart back to Nan Xing's house.

At this time, Ji Xiangyan, Luo Yunfei and Jiang Yanhua circled around the donkey several times, looking at it again and again, with joy in their eyes.

"Er Niang, I'm hungry, what delicious food did Uncle Wang cook at home?" Nan Xing rubbed his belly and asked with a smile.

"Winter melon stewed pheasant, we smelled it when we came out, so it should be edible." Luo Yunfei replied with a smile.

"Wow..." Nan Xing was overwhelmed with surprise, and ran back bouncing back with Qiu Ju and Chun Mei.

Luo Yunfei and the others returned with the donkey.

When they saw them coming back, Old Man Wang and Wang Yuxian who were in the kitchen ran out quickly.

"Miss, you are finally back. The Second Madam and the others are very anxious. They have been worrying for a long time." Wang Yuxian yelled 'wow'.

"It's okay, we were just having fun in the county town, and suddenly forgot the time to come back." Nan Xing explained with a smile. She smelled the scent coming out of the kitchen, and swallowed suddenly: "Can we have dinner?"

"Yes, yes." Old man Wang replied with a cheerful face. He had already finished the stew and waited for them to come back for dinner.

Soon, stewed pheasant with winter melon and a fresh vegetable were placed on the table.

Luo Yunfei picked up a chicken leg and put it in Nan Xing's bowl, filled her with a bowl of soup, and then picked up a piece of pheasant meat to eat.

Nan Xing took a sip of the fragrant and sweet stewed soup, which felt smooth but not greasy, and took another bite of the chicken thigh, which was so soft and so delicious.

The others also gobbled it up. Although Qiu Ju and Chunmei had already had a big meal at Hongfu Restaurant at noon, their appetites were still very good at night.

Nan Xing looked at Old Man Wang and Wang Yuxian who were eating very politely and carefully, and said with a smile: "Uncle Wang, Yuxian, you can treat this place as your home. Eat whatever you want, don't be polite, and don't wrong yourself. Otherwise, you will be the ones who will be hungry in the end.”

Hearing this, Old Man Wang's heart warmed up, and he said very moved: "Thank you for your kindness and compassion, Miss, we will."

With a piece of pheasant meat in her mouth, Wang Yuxian nodded fiercely. She hasn't eaten such delicious game for a long, long time.

After eating and drinking enough, Nan Xing took out a tael of silver and put it in front of old man Wang, saying, "Uncle Wang, although you and Yuxian were prostitutes, I never regarded you as servants. The silver is given to you, it can be regarded as the monthly silver and bonus for both of you, grandparents and grandchildren."

"This..." Old Man Wang and Wang Yuxian looked at her in shock.

Since ancient times, in addition to not being free after being sold, all their earnings have to be handed over to the master, and whether they can get the money in the end depends on the master's mood. Give them a tael of silver directly?

Moreover, they also said that this is only their monthly silver and bonus this month, that is to say, there will be more every month in the future?

Luo Yunfei and the others were also stunned, they didn't expect Nan Xing to be so rich.

The point is, isn't her reward too generous?

They can't stand it.

But they still didn't speak out against it, because the family had unknowingly become Nan Xing's master.

Although Luo Yunfei couldn't accept her spending money like she didn't want money, she could understand her behavior, after all, it was for the good of the family.

Moreover, the preserved apricots made this time are much more delicious than the previous ones, and they must have been sold at a good price again, which is all thanks to Old Man Wang.

Thinking of this, she immediately felt relieved, and at the same time, as long as she thought of the donkey and mule cart brought back by Nan Xing, she couldn't help laughing quietly in her heart, and her face was full of uncontrollable smiles.
