Chapter 11 Allow me to count!
"Xiangu is kind, please forgive me for the previous crime of disrespect!"

Wang Tiezhu took a deep breath, and bowed down to He Xuanji with his son Wang Daniu.

If it is said that they and He Xuanji were a bit of a businessman before, but now they respect each other sincerely.

He believes that as long as there is this fairy girl, he will definitely help his village out of the predicament and lead the villagers to live a good life!

He Xuanji looked at the villagers kneeling on the ground, and nodded slightly, she knew that she had gained a foothold in this world.

And with people who do things around her, she can practice with peace of mind and improve her strength as soon as possible.

The world is not peaceful!
I didn't have two brushes in my pocket, and I felt that my life was not at ease.

"Okay, get up!"

He Xuanji waved her small hands, trying to put on an old-fashioned look, but she was discouraged when she saw her waist-high waist-high body.

"Bring me two buckets of water... no, two buckets of water, I want to take a good bath!"

She felt that it would be more interesting to give orders, so she turned and went back after speaking.

Wang Tiezhu winked at the two big men who were still in a daze, "Hurry up, it's your blessing to bring the fairy girl bath water, so be careful!"

He Xuanji, who went away, "..."

After returning to the Ning family's thatched cottage, He Xuanji took a comfortable bath and changed into a set of clean clothes.

The water was burned by Ning Yi, the wooden barrel was borrowed by Mrs. Zhang, and the clothes were made by Aunt Liu next door for her daughter but she was reluctant to wear them. Well, it’s a good day when there are people waiting for you.

Her hair was still a little wet after taking a bath, so He Xuanji took a piece of cloth and simply tied a small braid in the back, draped the rest over her shoulders, and lazily basked in the sun in the yard.

Ning Yi came over from the woodshed with a bowl of sweet potato soup.

He also washed up, tied a juvenile bun, and changed into clean gray-blue clothes, looking like a little Taoist boy.

He Xuanji squinted her eyes, watching the young man who was getting closer and tidied up neatly, and suddenly had an idea, this is the legendary "one person attains the Tao, chicken and dog ascend to heaven"?
She laughed at herself, and glanced at the boy's skinny cheeks, seeing that his facial features were well-proportioned and handsome, she thought that he would be a handsome young man after he was raised.

Well, the person who works for her should not be too low-looking.

"It's not time for dinner yet!"

He Xuanji yawned lazily and said.

"Seeing that you have been busy for a long time, you must be hungry."

Where is it, she just took a shower.

"It's okay." While being humble, he took the sweet potato soup in Ning Yi's hand and ate it. "By the way, make the meal richer tonight, and add a few more dishes."

"Ah."

There is a lot of food collected from the villagers in the house, but it is not enough to eat for a few days, but Ning Yi did not make any comments on the food stock, but responded obediently.

He Xuanji felt that this man was not bad, as obedient as a quail.

As the sun set, He Xuanji dried her hair and entered the house.

When she came back, she told Wang Tiezhu that they should not bother her to clean up if she had nothing to do, and if her practice was ruined, she would be anxious with them.

So no one came this afternoon except to deliver some daily necessities.

After entering, He Xuanji glanced at the haystack bed, then looked around the dilapidated thatched cottage, her little brows frowned slightly.

The living conditions are still very bad, so I have to talk to Wang Tiezhu later.

"Tomorrow, you will make another bed and live in your parents' room."

Ning Yi lowered his eyes slightly, a few bangs blocked his sight, he couldn't see what kind of emotion it was, so he just responded softly, "Okay."

In the evening, Ning Yi cooked three dishes, all made with existing ingredients, and cooked a bowl of egg cauliflower soup.

Four more steamed buns were steamed, and one person ate two.

After eating and drinking enough, He Xuanji took a mat and went to sit cross-legged in his parents' room next door to practice. Ning Yi was responsible for cleaning up the debris, washing dishes and cleaning pots.

After all the work was done, Ning Yi saw that it was not early, so he was going to call He Xuanji to sleep together, but when he walked to the door of the room, the hand he had just raised fell again.

She almost forgot that she was no longer the little girl who only sticks to herself.

Unable to tell what it was like in his heart, Ning Yi clenched his fists, then let go, laughed at himself, and folded back.

In the room, He Xuanji was meditating, and she could sense the movement outside.

Listening to the sound of footsteps gradually receding, He Xuanji rested her chin with one hand and tapped her knee lightly with the other.

He is a tenacious young man.

Pity.

She yawned and continued to meditate with her eyes closed.

The next day.

As usual, Ning Yi boiled hot water, made breakfast, went out to collect firewood with a bamboo basket on his back, chopped firewood when he came back, and swept the yard. He was busy all morning.

He Xuanji fell asleep after entering meditation last night. After waking up, she was in good spirits. When she went out and saw Ning Yi who was cleaning the yard, she waved to him: "Morning!"

Ning Yi was stunned, probably didn't expect that she would greet him, after a while of silence, he responded, "Morning."

"Knock knock!"

"Xiangu, are you old enough to wake up?"

This is Wang Tiezhu's voice.

The corners of He Xuanji's mouth twitched, he was in his forties, and he called his eleven or twelve-year-old girl "old man", uncle, are you not ashamed to panic?

Seeing that she was dissatisfied, Ning Yi said to the gate, "Yao'er hasn't gotten up yet, please wait for Lizheng."

"Hey, okay, no hurry, no hurry!"

The voice outside the yard was panting, obviously in a hurry.

He Xuanji gave Ning Yi a "good job" look, and went into the room to have breakfast.

A quarter of an hour later.

Wang Tiezhu was led in by Ning Yi, and He Xuanji sat behind the table and looked at him with her chin resting on her cheek. She didn't forget to take a sip of tea, "Tell me, why are you looking for me?"

Wang Tiezhu clasped his hands together and saluted first, showing his yellow teeth, and smiling like a chrysanthemum.

"Xiangu, thank you for helping our village solve the water source problem, everyone is very grateful! Your kindness, I will never forget it..."

"Say the point!"

"Ahem, when the evil spirit was dealt with before, everyone handed in their rations, and now every household has nothing to eat. Originally, there were some sweet potatoes hidden under the ancestral hall of the village, but you know, after three years of drought, this survival There are not many sweet potatoes left, and some of them are rotten and can't be eaten..."

"Oh, so you came to ask me for food?" He Xuanji looked at him with a narrow smile.

"Don't dare! The villain is here to ask Xiangu, is there a solution?"

Wang Tiezhu's heart fluttered when she saw it, so he quickly waved his hands.

"There are some sweet potatoes hidden under the ancestral hall in the village?"

"Yes, Fairy?"

"Save those sweet potatoes first, don't move them, I will be useful later." He Xuanji put the tea aside, and said the following words to Ning Yi, "Bring three copper coins, let me do the math!"
