ed aides who were following King Beijang. Otherwise, how would she have thought that Yun Liu and Eleven managed to fall into another formation so timelyThere's his touch in this, isn't there It's not...Although the man was interested in the clothes in Zhuangzhuang's hands, he didn't walk over immediately. He silently walked to an inconspicuous place and waited.

Zhu Zhuang and the county magistrate's daughter hadn't noticed that a man had been eyeing them.

The county magistrate's daughter fell silent after hearing Zhuangzhuang's words. She truly wanted the garment, but when she thought about it being worn by someone else, she instantly felt a little disgusted.

After all, it's for his own younger brother to wear. It wouldn't be right for him to wear someone else's used clothes.

But this material is truly rare, and she doesn't want to miss out.

After a moment's hesitation, he decided to buy it. "Hua, how much silver did we bring out today"

Her maidservant's name was Hehua.

Upon hearing her young mistress's words, Hohua quickly flipped through the silver she had brought today. "Returning to Miss," she said, "we still have twenty taels."

Twenty taels of silver was a huge sum for an ordinary family, but she also knew that if it were truly valued by its worth, twenty taels wouldn't even buy half this outfit.

"So, I still turned to Zhuangzhuang and asked, 'Would you sell it for twenty taels If this wasn't a second-hand garment, this young lady would definitely give you more.'"

The only problem is that this garment has been worn before. After she buys it, her younger brother at home may not be willing to wear it. If he's unwilling to wear it, then the silver she spent will be wasted.

So she refused to pay more silver for it.

If this young man is willing to sell, she will buy him. If he is not willing, she will not press him.

fell silent for a moment, but then nodded in agreement. "Alright, I'm willing to sell."

The lotus flower directly shoved the pouch filled with silver into Zhuangzhuang's hand. "Here, cash on delivery. Can you get the clothes now"

"Well, okay..."

Zhang Zhang had never seen so much money before. Their family usually only made one or two taels when they sold their game, but now he had suddenly received twenty taels.

And he was also very clear that no matter how expensive this garment was, if he took it anywhere to sell it now, he wouldn't get this price. Most importantly, it would attract the same danger as before.

So selling it to this lady for twenty taels was actually his best choice.

The county magistrate's daughter didn't stay long. After the silver and goods were exchanged, she took her maid back to her residence.

Zhang Zhang carefully put away his pouch. Afraid of getting into trouble alone, he decided to meet Uncle Chen as soon as possible.

He had only taken a few steps when suddenly his vision went black and he lost consciousness.

......

While Uncle Chen on the other side waited for Zhuangzhuang after selling his prey, he didn't show up. After agonizing for a while, he finally decided to go buy what he needed first.

Even after he had bought everything he needed, Zhuangzhuang was still nowhere to be seen. At this point, he couldn't help but start worrying.

Although Zhuangzhuang wasn't the first time following him into the city, nor the first time acting independently, he suddenly realized that no matter how mature Zhuangzhuang was, he was still just a ten-year-old boy.

This city is so big, if something really happens, Zhuangzhuang alone wouldn't be able to cope.

As soon as he thought of this, he started to panic, looking around anxiously, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Fortunately, just when he was at his wits' end, a figure of Zhuangzhuang appeared in the distance. He hurried over to him:

"Zhuangzhuang, my boy, why have you been gone for so long You scared me to death! If anything had happened to you, how could I explain it to your parents"

"Zhuang Zhuang just smiled nonchalantly, "Uncle, I'm sorry. In order to sell the clothes for a good price, I went to several places. After selling them, I also bought a lot of things from the grain store, which delayed me quite a bit. I kept you waiting for so long, I'm really sorry."

On the way down the mountain, he had already shown Chen Lao Shu his clothes. There was nothing left to hide now.

Moreover, Uncle Chen also thought the fabric of that set of clothes was excellent. Although they didn't know what kind of fabric it was, the feel of it in their hands told them it was definitely different.

Uncle Chen also said that such clothes would definitely sell for a good price.

The tailor shop he went to at first was the one Uncle Chen told him about.

Even Old Uncle Chen didn't expect that such a large shop would actually be run by such a black-hearted person. They wanted to send him away with just ten copper coins for these expensive clothes!

Fortunately, he met a kind county magistrate's daughter later on, or else he would have been cheated badly.

And...the most fortunate thing is not just these, but some things he has already promised to certain people, and cannot speak of.

So I just explained a few things to Uncle Chen briefly.

Uncle Chen didn't ask any further questions. As long as Zhuangzhuang returned safely, he didn't have much to worry about. After listening to Zhuangzhuang's explanation, he simply nodded. Seeing that it was getting late, the two of them hurried back to the village.

Just after entering the mountain, Zhuangzhuang noticed that Mr. Chen beside him would often look back with a solemn expression.

He blinked, "Uncle, what's wrong Is there something behind us"

Uncle Chen pursed his lips. He had stopped walking now, staring intently at the spot behind him in thought.

But I can't seem to figure it out.

He looked like this, making Zhuangzhuang even more curious, and he quickly asked, "Uncle, what's wrong"

Uncle Chen came to his senses and shook his head slightly. "Nothing, maybe Uncle misread it. Let's hurry on our way, we have to reach our destination before dark."

They could not return to the village today, but they had a place to stay in the mountains. They arrived before dark and started their journey at dawn. It would take about three hours to get back to the village.

"Okay, let's go."

The two rested at a mountain shelter overnight and set off for the village as dawn broke.

......

At this moment, Zhuangzhuang had already told everyone in the house about his experiences in the city.

Besides Mo Jun Yi, the rest of his family couldn't help but curse the shopkeeper of the ready-to-wear shop for being shameless and knowing only how to bully children after Zhuang Zhuang finished speaking.

After berating the shopkeeper and the shop assistants, they began to lament that the county magistrate's young lady was a truly kind person. If it weren't for her help, their Zhàngzhàng wouldn't know what to do.

As the family sighed in despair, only Mo Junyi stared intently at a small piece of gold in Niu Niu's father's hand, as if deep in thought.

He remained silent for a long time, until everyone stopped discussing. Mo Junyi's deep eyes looked at Zhuangzhuang, "So this piece of gold was also given to you by that kind young lady"

“......”

When gold was mentioned, Zhuangzhuang's expression visibly froze for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure and nodded nonchalantly, "Of course, it's all...all from that young lady."

Mo Junyi narrowed his eyes slightly. He had been watching Zhuang Zhuang all along, so he hadn't missed any expression on his face.

My heart gradually settled down.dn't muster any strength.His head felt heavy and dizzy, his vision blurring until he could no longer make out the figures in front of him. He collapsed onto the table shortly after.Lei Hong's eyes wi...
