Chapter 44 You can only choose one.

Yue Rong and Yun Lan looked at each other, it's really a place where human traffickers are rampant.

The two children ran back to their mother, but they still stared at them curiously with two pairs of round eyes.

Zhu Xingmian took a step forward and smiled, "Ma'am, we came from Qingyun Town. We haven't eaten for several days. We passed by the village and wanted to stay overnight and get something to eat."

"We are willing to pay twice as a reward."

Zhu Xingmian was already gentle and amiable, and the villagers saw that she spoke softly and was willing to pay to look like a bad person, the hostility in her eyes dissipated a little.

"Are you really willing to pay for the second pass?" the mother who was protecting the child asked with longing and cautious eyes.

Their farmers planed food in the fields all day long, and they depended on God for food. Even if the weather was good and there were various taxes, they couldn't save money all year round.

"Really." Zhu Xingmian took out two pennies from his purse, shook it, and said, "I'll pay one penny first, and pay another penny when we leave."

When Zhu Xingmian was talking with the aunt, more and more people gathered.

Everyone heard that as long as they took the three of them in for a day and took care of the meal, they could earn two pennies, and they immediately scrambled for it.

"Come to my house! My kang will keep you sleeping comfortably."

"Come to my house! Come to my house!"

"Your house is sloppy, and you are embarrassed to let others go? Come to my house, my house is clean."

Zhu Xingmian looked at the first aunt and asked, "Auntie, how is your cooking skill?"

The aunt originally thought that she would definitely not be able to earn this kind of money based on the aggressive appearance she had treated them just now.

Who would have expected that this gentle, celestial-looking girl would take the initiative to ask her.

Her eyes lit up, and she quickly said, "My cooking skills are the best in the village, and anyone who has a business to serve wine will ask me to do it."

Zhu Xingmian smiled softly when she heard the words, and put the consistent money into the aunt's hand, "Then please trouble the aunt to cook for us."

The aunt squeezed the money in her hand, stuffed it neatly into her pocket, her face burst into smiles.

"Three nobles, come with me. My house is very close to here."

Seeing that Zhu Xingmian had made a choice, the onlookers left shaking their heads and sighing.

"Aunt Ge, you are lucky!"

"Are there any taboos for the three nobles?" Aunt Ge held a child in one hand, not caring about the work in the field, "Is there anything you want to eat?"

Zhu Xingmian pushed Yuerong and said, "Mother, you can just ask her."

Auntie's kind eyes turned to Yuerong.

Yue Rong: "I have a strong taste, and I like spicy food. As for the ingredients, I want to eat chicken and fish."

"Okay, no problem." Aunt Ge responded swiftly.

There is a lot of water here, and fish are not considered precious things. As for chickens, every household has them. Aunt Ge has a dozen of them at home, and she will go back to catch one later.

The three followed Aunt Ge home, and there was an old mother at home, and the male was working in the field.

"Mom, I'm back."

The gray-haired old woman looked at the sudden stranger and asked Aunt Ge, "Who is here?"

Aunt Ge took the old lady to explain the identities of the three of them.

Although Aunt Ge avoided them intentionally, the three of them were monks with sharp eyes and ears, so they heard every word that Aunt Ge said.

"Hey, Erguanqian?! My God, that's a living God of Wealth..."

"Be good at hospitality, don't be negligent."

"It's hard to say that we greeted well, and gave us some rewards when we left."

"Okay, you go to cook, I'll entertain them."

The old woman drove Aunt Ge away, and invited the three of them into the room with a smile on her face.

"The nobles sit down first, and I will pour water for everyone."

The two children looked at them curiously lying behind the door, Yuerong smiled and waved at them, calling them over.

The two children looked back, as if they were observing Aunt Ge's movements. Seeing that Aunt Ge was busy and had no time to talk to them, they ran forward with short legs and yelled, "Sister Xia Nu."

Yue Rong couldn't help pinching their cute little faces, and took out two candies from her pocket, "No, please eat some candies."

Yuerong learned a lesson from last time, this time the candy she brought out was just ordinary and delicious candy, without a trace of aura.

The two children took it happily, and the older one didn't forget to say, "Thank you sister Xia Nu."

Yuerong looked at their black and white eyes, the eyes were black like a shiny grape, the human cubs were really cute.

The old lady came back soon and poured three cups of tea for the three of them. The three cups were clean and bright, and it could be seen that they had been carefully scrubbed many times.

After the old woman poured the water, she sat down and chatted with them, "Where are you from?"

"We are from Qingyun Town."

"Qingyun Town, that's a good place."

Seeing that the old lady was a talkative person, Zhu Xingmian asked, "Old lady, do you know Nanling Town?"

"Nanling Town?!" The old woman drank water and shook her hands, "What are you asking?"

The three of them looked at each other. From the attitude of the old woman, it could be seen that there was indeed a problem in Nanling Town.

Zhu Xingmian: "We are going to Yuliu. I see that the next place on the map is Nanling Town, so I want to know how far it is."

The old woman breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Go to Yuliu, I advise you to change the route and don't go through Nanling Town."

"Why? Is there any problem in Nanling Town?"

The old lady just shook her head, "That place is very evil, if you have to pass by, don't stay too long, hurry up and leave."

"Why?"

Zhu Xingmian wanted to ask again, but the old lady didn't want to say anything more.

Yuerong took Zhu Xingmian's hand and said in a low voice, "Forget it, don't embarrass them. When we arrive in Nanling Town tomorrow, we will know what's weird about it."

Zhu Xingmian nodded slightly and didn't ask any more questions.

During this period, Aunt Ge's two children quietly came over to hold Yuerong's hand again, "Sister Xia Nu, come with me. I'll show you."

"Look at what?"

The two children just pulled her and said, "Sister Xia Nu, come with us and you'll know."

Yuerong couldn't laugh or cry and followed the two children's footsteps. They brought her to the small yard in front of the door, and pointed to the pattern made of petals on the ground.

"Sister Xia Nu, this is the painting we gave you."

"Wow, is that so? It's so pretty." Yuerong rubbed their heads, "Thank you."

The little girl grabbed Yue Rong's arm, leaned against her, and asked, "Sister Xia Nu, who do you think draws better?"

Yuerong supported her chin and said, "I think they all look good."

"No, no." The little girl shook her head, "You can only choose one."

"Yes, I can only choose one." The little boy also took Yuerong's hand and leaned against her, "Sister Chivalrous, do you think she looks good, or mine?"

Yuerong was one head and two big. She looked at the pattern drawn by the little boy, then at the pattern drawn by the little girl, and finally pointed to the little girl's and said, "I think this one looks better."
