Chapter 419 is looking for a young master
There was no lantern hanging outside the courtyard gate, but Hong Xiaoduo could see clearly because the person knocking on the door was holding a lantern.

The man holding the lantern is an old man in his fifties or sixties, and next to him is another man in his forties, carrying a saddle bag on his back and leading two sheep in his hands?
"Are you two looking for Manager Yang? Then you have to go to the inn, he doesn't stay here." Hong Xiaoduo told them kindly.

"Young lady, we are not looking for Manager Yang. Rather, we are looking for a young master. We came here to buy mutton when he was buying vegetables in the evening." The old man explained.

Huh? Tianxuan?
Hong Xiaoduo remembered that she had said on the road the day before that if she found a suitable yard to live in, she would buy some mutton for barbecue.

We ate there twice along the way and everyone loved it. We also liked the mutton hotpot and mutton dumplings.

"Mutton? But what about this?" Hong Xiaoduo pointed at the sheep in the man's hand in confusion.

"Oh, we can kill them now and let the young master choose which one. My son has also brought the tools for slaughtering sheep." The old man said again.

And bring this? Hong Xiaoduo suppressed her laughter and asked again: "The young master said he wanted a whole sheep?"

"The young master said he wanted at least 20 kilograms. Don't worry, young lady. After slaughtering the animal, you can have as many kilograms as you want. We will take the rest away. My father and I will clean up after slaughtering." The old man spoke cautiously, fearing that Hong Xiaoduo would refuse and drive him away.

The man leading the sheep never spoke and kept observing Hong Xiaoduo's reaction.

"That's great. Please wait a moment, old man. I'll ask and confirm." After Hong Xiaoduo finished speaking, she blew a whistle at her lips, and the sound of quick footsteps was heard behind her.

"Hey, why is that young master not here?" The old man looked at the children who came running out, took a quick look around, and became a little nervous.

The next moment, the old man's eyes suddenly lit up, and he pointed behind Hong Xiaoduo and said, "That young master is with this young master."

"What's going on?" Quan Jinghuai walked forward and asked.

"When you two went shopping in the evening, did Tianxuan look for mutton?" Hong Xiaoduo asked.

Hearing this, Quan Jinghuai nodded and his eyes fell on the man leading the sheep outside the door. He saw what was in the man's bag.

Quan Jinghuai told her what happened at that time, and emphasized to tell Hong Xiaoduo that he did not notice the two people at that time, and Tianxuan did not mention to anyone that he lived here.

Hong Xiaoduo also briefly explained the situation to Quan Jinghuai, and then smiled and said to the old man: "Old man, are you so good at doing business?
I just heard a half-grown kid nearby saying he wanted to buy mutton, so I took it seriously. But, how did you find your way here? "Is it really that difficult to sell mutton?

"My dear, we are not bad people. The owner of the meat stall where the young master bought the ribs is a distant relative of my family. He passed by here this afternoon and happened to see you moving in.

Knowing that my family was in urgent need of money, and hearing the young master talking about buying mutton, he wanted to help us." The old man explained quickly.

So that's what's going on. Hong Xiaoduo nodded and asked, "Is your place far from here?"

"It's not far. We'll be there in about a quarter of an hour." The old man responded quickly, but he couldn't be sure from her words whether she wanted the mutton or not.

"Uncle, let's see, we want this sheep, and I'll give you the money now, but it's better to come back tomorrow to slaughter it, it's a bit late today, is that okay?" Hong Xiaoduo asked. The old man immediately said, "Okay, okay, you don't have to give me the money now, young lady, choose which meat you want, and leave the sheep here tonight, and we will come back tomorrow to slaughter it."

"Uncle, even if we don't give you the money now, are you still confident in leaving the sheep here? Aren't you afraid that we will not honor your debt tomorrow?" Hong Xiaoduo asked with a smile.

When the old man heard Hong Xiaoduo's words, he was sure that the business was stable, and he felt completely at ease. He relaxed and said with a smile: "Don't worry, anyone who can live in Shopkeeper Yang's house must be a good person."

This shows that Shopkeeper Yang is a very prestigious person here, and his character is recognized.

"Young lady, just keep the meat of the sheep you want." The man who was leading the sheep finally spoke, and one could tell from his tone that he was very happy.

"Brother, why don't we just keep these two? We can leave after the New Year and eat them anyway." Hong Xiaoduo turned around and asked the person beside him.

When Quan Jinghuai heard this, he turned his head to look at her, thinking, why are you discussing the matter of two sheep with me? It's as if I can make the decision? It's obvious that you heard that the other party was in a hurry to use the money, and wanted to do a good deed to help them, so you had already made up your mind to keep two sheep!
"Well, then all of you stay." Quan Jinghuai complained in his heart, but he still cooperated and gave the correct response.

After hearing this, the two looked at each other, unable to believe their ears.

"You heard it right. We want both sheep, the whole ones. We won't wait for you to kill them and then buy only part of the meat. So, how much are these two sheep?" Hong Xiaoduo believed that she had sharp eyes and would not make a mistake. These two people really had some problems in their families and were in urgent need of money.

The two people selling the sheep were a father and son. They originally thought that if they could sell ten or twenty kilograms of mutton today, it would be a big harvest. Unexpectedly, the other party would not only take one, but also two sheep!
Although the Chinese New Year is approaching, there are still very few people buying mutton at the market. In addition, many people are anxious to sell some poultry and livestock before the New Year to earn some money for the New Year. Therefore, even if a sheep is slaughtered and sold at the market, it may take several days to sell out.

My luck was really good. After selling these two sheep, I had collected half of the money.

"My dear girl, the price of a sheep in this town is about one tael and three cents, and it depends mainly on the weight. If you want two, can I charge you two and a half taels of silver?" The old man asked tentatively after discussing with his son in a low voice.

"Two and a half taels of silver, no problem." Hong Xiaoduo responded, reaching for his waist, but found nothing.

Suddenly I remembered that when I was resting in the afternoon, I took it off and put it next to my pillow because it was in the way. When I got up, I thought it was already night, so I didn't hang it up again.

"Whoever pays for the sheep first, I will pay you back later." Hong Xiaoduo asked the little guys around him.

Yuheng and the others immediately searched their pockets, but Tianji was quick and gave the silver to the old man.

"Thank you, young lady. We will come over tomorrow. Do you know when is a good time?" The old man gave the silver to his son and put it away, then asked.

"Well, not too early, and not too late." Hong Xiaoduo said simply.

After the father and son left, Hong Xiaoduo and others closed the door and walked back. When they arrived at the dining room, Aping was bringing the last dish to the table.

Tianxuan took off her apron and asked, "I was just about to go look for you guys, what's the matter?"

Ah Ping, who was pretending to straighten his chair, also pricked up his ears to listen...
