Chapter 38 Bodyguard
One of them, a strong man with a scar on his face, said contemptuously: "Boy, you are in charge of whether grandpa lights up the weapon. You were still breastfeeding in your mother's arms when I practiced the sword!"

He was the only one with an empty hand, and the knife that was shot down by the milk jug was his weapon.

"Mr. Ma! Shut up!" The applauding man turned his head and scolded, then turned around and clasped his fists at Xiaoxun, "I'm sorry, little brother, it's because I didn't discipline my subordinates strictly, I hope you don't care about it. Thanks to your help just now, I am really sorry I don't know how to thank you."

"Thank you, I don't need it, you should apologize to them." Xiaoxun folded his arms and tilted his head slightly in the direction of the mother and daughter who were still crying.

"Yes, yes, yes, yes." The big man smiled boldly, squatted down and took out a small piece of broken silver, trying to give it to the woman. "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, my brother missed it for a while. You can use this little money to buy some candy for the doll."

With tears in her eyes, the woman looked at the strong men who looked like hills. She didn't dare to accept the money at all, but hugged her daughter even tighter.

Xiao Xun saw the woman trembling with fright, he took the broken piece of silver from the big man's hand, stuffed it into the little girl's hand, and said to the woman, "Take it, it's what they should pay you. "

Trembling, she took the broken silver, the woman thanked her in a low voice, hugged her daughter and hurried away, she was terrified of these brawny men full of quack spirits.

Seeing that the woman and the little girl had left safely, Xiaoxun also turned around to go back to the Tzu Chi Hall.The milk for Mr. is gone, he has to go back and explain to Xiaoruo.

"Little brother stay here."

As soon as he took a step, Xiaoxun was stopped by the big man who took the lead, and the big man clasped his fists and said, "Little brother's pot was destroyed because of us, we should also make compensation."

Just as Xiao Xun wanted to say no, the water stains on the stone table flashed in his mind, and the words changed when he reached his mouth: "Then you pay for it."

The big guy didn't seem to expect Xiaoxun to be so straightforward, he paused with his clasped hands, and immediately laughed again: "Little brother is really temperamental, I like it!"

He took out a piece of silver and handed it to Xiao Xun, and said: "I don't know the name of the little brother yet, my name is Jiang Ping, and I am the head of the Shunji Escort Bureau."

Xiao Xun took the silver and weighed it, the piece of silver was about two taels.

"My name is Xiaoxun, the pot is not worth so much money, you paid too much."

"It's okay, if you have a lot, just treat me as a brother like you, and you can buy wine and drink!"

"I don't drink, and I don't bring any money. I'll return it to you when I get home."

It was the first time Jiang Ping saw someone who thought he had too much money. He grinned and said, "It's fine, I listen to my little brother. It's just that we have something to do now, so we can't wait for your change to come back here. How about this, our escort car Stop at the Sanli Pavilion in the southwest of the town, the little brother can come and find me there tomorrow."

Xiao Xun nodded to show that he understood, then ignored them and walked towards the Tzu Chi Hall.

Jiang Ping happily watched him go away.Ma Laosan picked up his knife and asked Jiang Ping: "Boss, didn't you say that we are going to rest here for a few days, what else should we do now?"

Jiang Ping looked at Ma Laosan with a restrained smile, hating that iron could not be made into steel.According to what he saw, Xiaoxun could beat five Ma Laosan by himself, but Ma Laosan has been a bodyguard for five or six years, and has been walking with him for nearly three years. I can still let go!

Slapping Ma Laosan hard on the back shoulder, Jiang Ping said: "What's the matter! Hold your knife tighter in the future! If you let go again, I'll go back and tell the shopkeeper to deduct your dart money!"

Seeing this, the other four turned their backs and sneered and laughed. It's okay for Ma Laosan to not be able to do it well, and his brain can't keep up.Their boss obviously liked that kid's skill and wanted to recruit him into his gang.

Xiaoruo was a little surprised to see Xiaoxun come back, she just went out for a short time, and she came back now?

"The things didn't arrive, something happened and the jar broke. This is someone else's compensation for the jar." Xiaoxun spread his hands and handed the money Jiang Ping gave to Xiaoruo.

Xiao Ruo smelled the strong milky smell from his hand, so instead of picking up the money, she tugged at his arm to make him turn around.Sure enough, half of Xiaoxun's back was soaked, and the milk seeped in from his clothes, even his inner clothes might not be spared.

She immediately pushed Xiaoxun to the backyard, asking him to change his wet clothes first.

"Who's so rich, can you give me two taels of silver for a broken pot?" Xiao Ruo stood outside the window, taking the dirty clothes that Xiao Xun handed out from inside one by one.

"I don't want all of it. I'll give him the rest of the money tomorrow." Xiaoxun's voice came from the half-open window, muffled.

"That's okay, it's hot to hold the unknown money. We bought the pot for twenty cents, and I'll wrap up the rest of the money for you, so you can return it to others." Xiaoruo thinks that Xiaoxun's handling is right, although It's a bit painful to return the silver in her hand.

During the conversation, Xiaoxun had already changed into clean clothes, and he took his dirty clothes that smelled of milk from Xiaoruo, and they walked towards the well together.

Summer is coming to an end, and the well water is already cold.Since he recovered, he no longer let Xiao Ruo touch the washing work, from washing dishes and pots to washing and washing quilts, he has done it all by himself.

Xiaoruo brought out the big wooden basin for laundry. Xiaoxun fetched two buckets of water from the well and poured it into the wooden basin. After rubbing some saponins on the dirty clothes, she began to wash the clothes. While scrubbing, she told Xiaoruo about the street today Things that happened.

Seeing him skillfully rubbing the dirty clothes, a word from the previous life came to Xiaoruo's mind - house husband.Xiaoxun does both cooking and laundry, and Xiaoxun can do a good job of sweeping and tidying up the floor. Xiaoruo once wondered why Xiaoxun could be so virtuous because he might have acquired housework skills.

After washing and drying the clothes, the two went to Xiaoruo's room together to count the remaining money to be returned to Jiang Ping tomorrow.

Xiaoruo hid the silver very deeply.She first took out a small copper lock from under the pillow, then lifted the bed board and took out a small wooden box from the gap, opened the wooden box with the copper lock, and took out another slightly larger lock, which could open her The small vault - the wooden box that was pressed under the wardrobe.

It wasn't that she was overly cautious, who said that there is no safe in this world, she would feel uneasy if she didn't hide it like this, and she would have angina pectoris when she thought that the money she had worked so hard to save would be stolen.Is this money lost?What was lost was the rations of the two cubs, as well as their future fitting clothes and hopes!

With this in mind, every penny is precious in her eyes.He counted out one tael of silver, nine guan and eighty copper coins, wrapped it tightly with a small cloth, rubbed his fingers reluctantly on the cloth bag a few times, and then handed it to Xiaoxun.

Seeing the reluctance in Xiaoruo's eyes, and the water stains on the stone table flashed in his mind again, Xiaoxun pursed his lips and asked, "Ruoruo, are we short of money?"
