Datang: Let's Start with Fortune-telling

　　Hearing this, Zhangsun Wuji and Li Junxian were all shocked into a cold sweat.

Chapter 3: Poverty is the original sin [for reward]

　　Sunset West Mountain.

　　Matou Village outside Chang'an City.

　　It is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the environment is pleasant.

　　It is surrounded by mountains on both sides and a lake on the other.

　　It can be said that the paradise...

　　However, such a paradise, in this era of constant wars.

　　But no one appreciates it at all.

　　Running every day just to survive?

　　The golden sun shines on a dirt road.

　　Han Xiu, who had returned with a full load, carried his flag and walked forward in a very happy mood.

　　Today is a big harvest for him.

　　Not only did he meet an idiot who was 'not bad for money', but after a few words, he was fooled by himself to take out a lot of money.

　　Also accidentally activated the system...

　　Good day, maybe it will start today.

　　My own sister doesn't have to help others with their work everywhere and see their faces.

　　I thought happily.

　　Not long after, Matou Village appeared in sight.

　　This is where Han Xiu and his sister lived from childhood to adulthood.

　　Residents of the village and

　　It’s not too many, and together, there are only thirty or forty families.

　　When he just walked to the entrance of the village.

　　I saw two people approaching from the front.

　　One old and one young, dressed in ordinary coarse linen clothes, with a cloth bag wrapped around their heads.

　　On their shoulders, they carried something similar to an iron pickaxe.

　　When they saw Han Xiu, they smiled and greeted him.

　　"Kid Han, did you just come back from fortune-telling?"

　　"Hey, Brother Han, how's the business today? How many people have you deceived?"

　　this old one

　　Say less jokingly.

　　Because they are from the same village, they know each other very well.

　　Although Han Xiu made a living by fooling people, the villagers did not exclude him.

　　On the contrary, from time to time, they will help the two brothers and sisters.

　　"Hahaha, Uncle Liu, Little Fatty, are you going to the fields? It's so late, the sun is about to set, don't fall!"

　　"Especially you, Little Fatty, your body has fallen, enough for you to stay at home for half a month!" Han Xiu also said with a smile.

　　Hearing this, the old man burst out laughing.

　　The young man named Little Fatty made a mischievous face at Han Xiu.

　　After saying goodbye to the father and son, Han Xiu continued to walk to the village.

　　Along the way, I ran into several aunts and uncles from the same village one after another.

　　Han Xiu politely greeted them one by one.

　　Soon, the earthen house of his family appeared in Han Xiu's line of sight.

　　The so-called dirt house.

　　It is completely made of yellow soil and covered with straw.

　　The house is very simple, and it is even more shabby inside.

　　But this is for

　　For the two lonely brothers and sisters, it is already very good to have a place to cover their heads.

　　When Han Xiu came to the door.

　　See you in a small fenced yard.

　　A thin, thin, but very good-looking girl.

　　Sitting on a bluestone, washing wild vegetables seriously.

　　"Xi'er!"

　　Han Xiu pushed aside the fence and shouted with a smile.

　　Suddenly, the girl raised her head with a sunny smile on her face.

　　"Brother, you are back!"

　　"Come in and get some rest, right away

　　Can cook, hehe! "

　　The girl said with a chuckle.

　　Hearing this, Han Burang put his banner and some things on the ground next to him.

　　When he came closer, he also squatted down and helped his sister wash the vegetables.

　　To be honest, the daily meals of the two brothers and sisters are mainly based on wild vegetables.

　　Especially during the Tang Dynasty.

　　Salt is a luxury, and ordinary people simply cannot afford it.

　　If the conditions are slightly better, at most, vinegar cloth and salt cloth should be used instead.

　　And the salt that the princes and ministers eat is nothing more than

　　Some impurities, peculiar smell, and salty coarse salt.

　　Therefore, his sister looked extremely thin.

　　His face was even more sallow, and he looked malnourished.

　　"Brother, what are you looking at?"

　　At this moment, Han Xi'er seemed to feel her brother's abnormality.

　　When he raised his head, he found that his brother was looking at him.

　　Han Xiu was startled when he heard the words.

　　He quickly shook his head, stretched his hand into his arms, and said with a smile, "Xi'er, how about a gift from my brother today?"

　　"Gift

　　? ”

　　"It's not a festival, what are you giving a gift for? Brother, aren't you spending money recklessly?" Han Xi'er said with a frown.

　　"Oh, don't worry about it, come on, look what this is..."

　　As soon as he finished speaking, Han Xiu took out a hairpin from his arms.

　　When Han Xi'er saw it.

　　There was a flash of light in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth could not help but rise.

　　After all, it is a girl who has irresistible feelings for these things.

　　Even her younger sister, who has been smart and sensible since she was a child, is the same.

　　After all, the hairpin on her head is still the salary that she helped people do last year, and people used the hairpin to pay.

　　Moreover, it has long been damaged and old, and it is really distressing in Han Xiu's eyes.

　　"This, this hairpin is so beautiful..."

　　Han Xi'er looked at the hairpin in front of her with a happy smile on her face.

　　Han Xiu didn't speak.

　　He immediately put the hairpin on his head for his sister.

　　"Well, that's right, don't ask for this broken hairpin, brother will let you live a good life in the future!" Han Xiu said with a light smile.

　　when hearing this

　　words.

　　Han Xi'er was stunned for a moment, and turned back from the loss just now.

　　"Brother, this, this hairpin is probably expensive, you, where did you get the money from?"

　　"Although we are poor, we can't steal or rob!"

　　"Send it back quickly, send it back quickly..."

　　The younger sister's face changed, and she seemed extremely anxious.

　　Look at the worried look on her face.

　　Han Xiu sighed softly.

　　Being poor...is the original sin, otherwise how could my sister have such a reaction?
