Chapter 46

Seeing this, Ali originally wanted to say something, but before he spoke, he heard Xu Banxia say.

"Brother Ali, if you are thirsty, drink the water I prepared for you first."

Ali was puzzled by this sentence. "Why?"

"Because Brother Ali is helping me. You drink my water, and I feel better." Regarding Xu Banxia's explanation, Ali did not become suspicious, and nodded in agreement. "Okay, I see."

"Then I wish brother Ali a smooth journey, and go back early." Xu Banxia said with a smile.

"Yes." Ali responded, and put the wild boar on the ox cart and covered it with hay.

After everything was done, Ali and Xu Banxia said goodbye. "I am leaving."

"Brother Ali, be careful all the way."

Liu Wenxiu stood behind Xu Banxia and watched the scene fixedly, staring angrily at Ali's back as he left.

After Ali walked away, Xu Banxia turned around.

In the end, Liu Wenxiu was taken aback. "Wenxiu, when did you stand behind me? Why didn't I know? I was scared to death."

Xu Banxia patted his chest with lingering fear.

"Xia Xia, Ali or me, which one is more important?" Liu Wenxiu's words directly confused Xu Banxia.

"What?"

"Ali or me, which one is more important." Liu Wenxiu repeated with a straight face.

"Of course Wenxiu is more important." Xu Banxia felt that Liu Wenxiu had been acting abnormal recently, and it seemed that Ali was not pleasing to the eye.

But Ali didn't seem to provoke him much, why is this guy so hostile to Ali.

Hearing Xu Banxia say that she is more important, her face looks a little better.

"Xia Xia, in the future...can you...don't smile at Ali?" Liu Wenxiu looked unhappy.

Xu Banxia:? ? ?

"why?"

"I don't like Xia Xia smiling at Ali." Xia Xia is his future wife, and he felt that Ali's eyes were on Xia Xia when he saw Xia Xia, which made him very uncomfortable.

Xu Banxia: Uh... this guy is still so young, he must be jealous, right?
The ancient ten-year-old... precocious?

It seems that she didn't feel precocious, so why did Wenxiu get jealous?

Xu Banxia couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

"Then I'll just try not to smile at him from now on."

"Xia Xia, will Ali marry you as his wife?" Liu Wenxiu asked suddenly.

Xu Banxia was slightly taken aback. "Why do you ask that, Wenxiu?"

"It's nothing, just asking casually." Liu Wenxiu turned and left. "I'm going to read, Xia Xia."

"Go." Xu Banxia replied to him lightly.

Xu Banxia went to find Qin Shi, who was doing needlework. "Mom, I want to give them some steamed buns."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Qin stopped what she was doing. "Go ahead, last time your grandma made a big fuss at Yang's house when she stood up for you."

"Mother, let's ask the grandma and them to come to our house for a meal some other day, what does mother think?"

Qin nodded. "Yes, it's not bad to have a family gathering together."

"Mother, let's make a deal like this. I will prepare in the next two days, and then call the grandma and the others to our house for dinner."

"it is good."

Time always passed quickly, until Shen Shi, when there was a knock on the door of Liu's big room.

Xu Banxia heard the knock on the door and hurried to open the door.

Seeing the person standing at the door, Xu Banxia was a little surprised. "Brother Ali is back, come in and sit down, I'll pour you some water."

Ali walked in without saying a word.

Xu Banxia went into the kitchen, took spring water from the space and brought it out to Ali. "Brother Ali, drink water."

Ali said thank you as he took the water.

Xu Banxia felt that Ali was too polite. "Brother Ali helped me, I just poured you a bowl of water, thank you for nothing."

Thinking about Ali coming back, he should be let to rest first, even though he wanted to know the price of that wild boar, Xu Banxia resisted the urge to ask.

Liu Wenxiu, who was reading a book, heard the movement outside and ran out quickly.

Then he saw Ali sitting in the yard, and Xu Banxia standing beside him.

"Xia Xia." Liu Wenxiu called out.

"Why doesn't Wenxiu continue reading?"

"I want to come out to get some air, and then practice calligraphy for a while." In fact, he only came out when he heard the voice outside.

"also."

At this time, Qin Shi also came out. "Thank you little brother Ali for helping Banxia run this trip, why don't you stay and have dinner before leaving."

Ali Ke replied politely: "Aunt Liu, you're welcome, it's just a small favor. We are all fellow villagers, and we should help each other. As for dinner... I won't stay for dinner."

Qin insisted on keeping him. "How can this work? You have traveled so far and left without a meal. After Pinellia, I will be embarrassed to ask you for help."

After a polite excuse, Ali agreed to stay for dinner. "Then I would like to thank Aunt Liu for her kindness."

"It's just a meal, it's okay."

Liu Wenxiu on the side stared at Ali resentfully, which was not pleasing to the eye.

Ali naturally noticed it, but he didn't care too much.

It's just that Liu Wenxiu, a kid, doesn't like him very much.

Ali ate the food made by Xu Banxia again, and he was very satisfied and happy.

After eating, Ali gave Xu Banxia the money for selling wild boars.

"Here is 20 taels for selling wild boar, so you can keep it."

Xu Banxia was stunned seeing the heavy silver in his hand. "It's... sold so much!"

Sure enough, it is more profitable to sell wild boars in the county than in the town.

In the future, she would simply take all the wild game she caught to the county to sell!

That's a lot of money!
Xu Banxia thought about it, feeling excited. "Thank you very much Brother Ali for your help this time!"

After finishing speaking, Xu Banxia took two taels of silver and handed it to Ali. "This two taels of silver should be regarded as a thank you to brother Ali, and please accept it."

Ali looked at the money Xu Banxia handed over, but didn't reach out to take it. "I don't want the money anymore, you can keep it."

"Then how can it be done? Brother Ali has helped me so much, I must accept the two taels of silver." Xu Banxia wanted to hand it to Ali, but Ali took two steps back.

"I'm helping you, not for your money."

"Brother Ali, do you think that two taels of silver are too little?"

Ali: "I'm not short of money. I saved some money from hunting before."

Xu Banxia: "Then what is brother Ali lacking? You tell me, let me see if I can help."

"I need someone..." Someone who cooks delicious food.

After thinking about it, Ali still didn't say the next few words, so he changed his mouth. "Forget it, you can't help if you say it."

"You were going to say it just now, why didn't you say it again? What is Brother Ali missing?"
