My Queen Pluto is dead

Chapter 62 Don't fall in love with others 3
Xingchen was slightly disappointed, and wanted to come back next time, but couldn't bear the little boy's enthusiasm, so he followed him to the pharmacy.

The owner of the pharmacy obviously knew the little boy, and as soon as he entered, he said, "Sanba, have you got the money?"

The little boy nodded vigorously, "Shopkeeper, please pack the medicine for me." He said and gave all the ten taels of silver to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper took out a pack of medicines from the medicine cabinet on one side and handed them to Sanwa, and said: "Remember to let your grandfather take the medicines on time, and you must raise the remaining 300 taels before the end of the month. Our boss said that after the time has passed, you will use the house to pay off the debt."

Sanwa nodded, and replied stubbornly: "I know. I will definitely find a way to raise money."

Leaving the pharmacy, Xing Chen couldn't help asking: "Is your grandfather seriously ill? Why do you owe so much money?"

Sanwa wiped her tears and said: "Our family used to run a restaurant. Because of my grandfather's good craftsmanship, he was invited to be an imperial cook in the palace. Three years ago, my grandfather suddenly lost his sense of taste and was sent away by the people in the palace. When I came back, the doctor said that grandpa had been poisoned by a strange poison and needed to take medicine to restrain the toxin... The shopkeeper of the pharmacy and grandpa are friends, so he has been kind enough to give us credit, but the amount is increasing. The boss of the shopkeeper found out, so ..."

"It turned out to be like this." Xingchen suddenly realized that the elder brother had a strange poison in his body back then, and he needed a lot of money and medicinal materials to restrain the poison. He didn't expect this child's grandfather to have such an experience.

Because she had the same experience as herself, Xingchen was full of compassion for this child, and she planned to help them as much as she could if she could.

Sanwa's house is much better than she imagined. The small building on the second floor looks like a restaurant. Although the building is very old, the location is good. If you really want to sell it, you can sell it for 10 taels owned.

As soon as Sanwa got home, he went straight to grandpa's room. When he came out of grandpa's room, it was obvious that he had already cried.While decocting the medicine, he said to Xingchen: "Miss sister, grandpa is coughing badly now, he said he will come out to see you after drinking the medicine, can you wait a little longer?"

There was pleading in his eyes, Xing Chen nodded, "Okay!"

"Grandpa is going to sell this place to pay off the debt. Young lady, if you have money, can you buy it?"

Sanwa's words moved Xingchen's heart slightly. She hadn't considered buying this kind of two-story duplex building, she just wanted a small shop, but now she feels that such an ancient small building Not bad, so I asked, "How much is your grandfather going to sell?"

"Old Li from Dongjie paid 6 taels, and asked us to move out within three days. He said my house is in a good location, and he wanted to push the old house to build a brothel." At this moment, Sanwa's face was full of anger, The small hands were clenched into fists, and a deep mark was bitten on the lips.

Xingchen sighed, this is a very stubborn child.So he asked, "Did your grandfather agree to that person?"

"Grandpa will give them the answer tomorrow. Originally, he decided in his heart, but when he heard that I brought back a young lady who asked him to work, he hesitated again."

Xingchen nodded, "I see. I'll talk to your grandfather about it. The medicine is ready, bring it in and give it to your grandfather!"

"Mmm." Sanwa poured out the medicine and carefully took it in.

After a while, Sanwa came out with the help of a well-dressed old man. His hair was also very neat, and it looked like it had been specially arranged for the stars.

The old man looked at Xingchen and nodded. After sitting down, countless eyes of countless people slid around Xingchen, and he couldn't help but marvel.

"Is this young lady asking me to sculpt?" The old man's voice was a little hoarse, and he couldn't help coughing lightly after he finished speaking.

"Yes. Grandpa, my name is Murong Xingchen. I like your sculptures very much, so I came to your house with Sanwa to have a look."

When the old man heard Murong's surname, he searched his memory, and found that there was no family name of Murong in the capital. Could it be that she is not from Zhongxuan Continent?

"I kept you waiting. Miss Murong, besides these animals, what else do I need to do?" The old man made some woodcuts purely to make ends meet, and he couldn't think of anything a little girl could do for him.

Xingchen thought for a while and explained: "I originally wanted to ask Grandpa to help me make some exquisite wooden boxes. I just heard Sanwa say that you want to sell this house. If possible, I want to buy it."

The old man glanced at the third child next to him. This child actually revealed the news to this girl so quickly. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to talk to this girl about this matter. Now let this girl know the bottom line. There is no speaking initiative.

After thinking about it, the old man said bluntly: "It is possible, but I have a condition. If you agree, I am willing to sell it to you at half the price of Li's."

Xing Chen nodded, "Please tell me?"

"Sanwa and I want to stay here. Whether it's showing you the house or being a buddy, we don't ask for money. We just hope that we can continue to live in this place. This place is already our root."

There was a trace of pleading in the eyes of the old man, he was very afraid that Murong Xingchen would not agree, so he was very nervous.

Xingchen nodded understandingly, "Of course. Both you and Sanwa can live here, and you don't have to keep the price of the house so low. I'll buy it for 100 million taels. Of course, I also have one condition!"

The old man tied his tongue nervously, and said in disbelief: "One, one million taels?"

Sanwa also opened her eyes wide. This little sister actually wants to pay so much money?
"Then what are the conditions, Miss?" As long as the lives of him and Sanwa are not endangered, he can agree.

"You have to keep secrets for me. When my shop opens, you will be the shopkeeper, but you must not reveal any personal information about me... You also need to have a firm heart. People who come to your shop in the future will be either rich or expensive. You have to take it easy..."

Xingchen told them without any concealment, her identity as Princess Chen, and what she was going to do next.

After the old man panicked, he was pleasantly surprised. He had no idea that the pretty girl in front of him would be Princess Chen. He vowed to fulfill the conditions she asked for.

"Little princess, I, Fu Rong, swear to the sky that if I tell the identity of the little princess, I will be struck by lightning and die a terrible death..."

Xingchen laughed, and helped Grandpa Fu who was kneeling on the ground and swearing, "Grandpa Fu, don't be so nervous, I will draw a picture for you, you can decorate the shop according to my requirements in these two days, I will send someone to come again tomorrow .Here is 500 taels of silver, please keep it!"

"Little Gong...Miss, don't worry, I will definitely arrange everything." Fu Rong looked forward to it, and he felt much lighter with hope and sustenance in the days when he would not come.

"Sister Chen." Sanwa looked up at the stars and said expectantly, "Will Sister Chen come again in the future?"

Xingchen patted his head and said, "I will come, but it's just the elder sister Chen you know, understand?"

Sanwa immediately nodded happily, "I see."

"Grandpa Fu, this is a bottle of detoxification pill. You take one pill every day. After your sense of taste recovers, we will open a restaurant." This is Xingchen's idea after meeting Grandpa Fu.

Grandpa Fu's eyes were red with emotion, he has been cooking all his life, what he wants to do most is to cook again... God is so kind to him, that he can meet Princess Chen in his lifetime.

After Xingchen left, Grandpa Fu couldn't sleep because of Taixingli, so after taking a detoxification pill, he started tidying up the house overnight, and he wanted to finish what Princess Chen told him as soon as possible.

Here, Xing Chen was walking alone on the street, the street was relatively quiet, and most of the passers-by and hawkers had already started closing their stalls. Suddenly, a carriage drove towards her, and Xing Chen was about to avoid it, but a soft road in the carriage The force easily rolled her into the carriage and bumped into another person.

Just when she was about to fight back, a more soft and pleasant voice said: "Chen'er, don't be afraid! I won't hurt you!"

Xingchen looked up, and saw a man wearing a golden mask staring at her, the eyes were inexplicably warm, her heart trembled slightly, "Is it you?"

"Because I want to travel far, so I came to see you." The masked man stretched out his hand and stroked her long hair. Five years, he will leave Zhongxuan Continent for five years, and when he comes back, his little Chen'er should grow up Come on!

"Oh!" Xingchen didn't know what to say, the reluctance in the masked man's eyes was so strong, but she didn't know who he was.

He felt very familiar to her, and he unconsciously made her trust her, let go of her anxiety, "Where are you going?"

She didn't want to ask at first, but the voice asked her own thoughts first.

A smile appeared in the masked man's eyes, "Go and heal the wound on your face. I'll be back when you grow up. Be obedient these days, don't be naughty, don't get hurt, and don't fall in love with others."

Xing Chen looked puzzled, why did she feel that the masked man's exhorting tone was a little weird.

It wasn't just him, Xingchen felt that she was also weird. When she heard that his face was injured, she felt inexplicably sad again. She struggled a bit, and she stretched out her hand towards him, wanting to take off his mask to see who he really was.

The masked man held her hand, shook his head, "I'll show you later."

"No. I want to watch it now. If there is an injury, I will treat it for you!" Xing Chen Buyi insisted on knowing who he was.

"Hey, this is not an ordinary injury. It will scare you." The masked man turned his face away, but Xingchen slyly wrapped his neck around his neck from behind him, and touched his mask as soon as he wrapped his hands around, his body Because of this, he leaned forward and was about to fall.

The masked man trembled in his heart, turned around and put his arms around Xing Chen's waist. When Xing Chen happily tore off his mask, he was even more surprised to find that there was another mask on his face.

Xingchen was very annoyed, "It's a hot day, isn't it hot for you to wear so many masks?"

Seeing her angry appearance, the masked man smiled and patted her angry face, "I'll show you after I tell you. Don't be upset, I'll give you a gift." He took out a piece of green jade from his sleeve. The green scales were put into her hands, "This is the tortoise scale of the ancient mythical beast Xuanwu. It was injured and hid in the Qihan Cave in Xuanzhou. You just need to take the scales to Qihan Cave and drip the blood on the scales." It will recognize its master. When I am not around, let Xuanwu take good care of you."

After speaking, he caressed Xingchen's flawless face with some reluctance, and sighed, "I really think it's five years later."

Holding the scales, Xingchen was both moved and depressed, Xuanwu's excited voice could already be heard in her ears, this thing is really Xuanwu's tortoise scale.

"Can't you let me see who you are? Why don't you just tell me, okay?" It's uncomfortable to guess, his face can't be seen, his figure and voice are disguised , even the pair of extremely warm eyes that looked at him seemed to be separated by something, flickering and dimming.
