Chapter 154 Two 19. A Surprise Attack at Night
Wu Jingshu stared at Tian Erya's resolute expression, and sighed softly: "You are so powerful, you can control your own destiny, and you can do whatever you want. But I can't, I envy you very much."

Tian Erya's eyes widened: "You're not talking nonsense, are you? Do you still envy me? Do you know how many people envy you for being reincarnated and being a daughter of a rich family? You may not be able to fill your stomach with life, so you won't talk about envying me anymore."

"No, what I said is true. You only saw my glamorous side. If you don't know, I will also worry and suffer." Wu Jingshu's expression was melancholy, "I can't have my own opinions, and everything must be done according to my parents. idea to do..."

"Is your escape from marriage also instigated by your parents?" Tian Erya teased.

"Of course not. That was the only time I mustered up the courage to do such an outrageous thing. However, the facts proved that my idea was wrong. I misread the person, and I wanted to marry Zheng Yuansheng as Qin Jin's best friend, but it was not satisfactory .Now, in order to prevent me from doing similar behavior again, my brother took all the money around me. I don’t have the skills to make a living. Without the financial support of my family, I can’t move an inch. But you, mastering the superb blacksmithing skills, forged The scissors are of high quality, you don’t have to worry about selling them, and you can fully support yourself, your family can’t control you, they can grow freely with you, and you can live the life that all women yearn for.”

Tian Erya had a bitter face: "Miss Wu, please don't mock me. I can't spend a copper coin on my whole body now, and I depend on other people's food. I have to go to the kitchen and find some work to avoid recruiting people. I'm bored, don't give me food tomorrow."

"I'll tell the butler, let him relieve you of your chores and provide you with free board and lodging."

"Thank you, miss, but, no need, if I get something for nothing, I won't be able to live comfortably. If you are willing to help me, can you teach me paper-cutting again. In this way, after I get off the boat, I can sell scissors and paper-cut at the same time. "

Seeing her positive state, Wu Jingshu couldn't help but nodded: "Okay. As long as I have time, I will teach you."

In this way, besides working, Tian Erya mostly practiced paper-cutting every day.When Wu Xiangrong came back, she had already cut out a decent paper-cut.

Wu Xiangrong stood behind her, holding a little rabbit that she cut out in his hand: "Not bad, it's lifelike. You've made great progress, how much paper did it cost me?"

Tian Erya turned her head and saw him surprised: "Young Master Wu, you are back. I asked before, your rice paper is not that expensive, you are playing tricks on me, so hurry up and return the rest of the money to me, okay?"

"I just asked for money, you really have a conscience." Wu Xiangrong's face darkened, "Those rice papers are worth that price. The rice papers I brought were filled with precious sheepskin. If you cut them for me, you will naturally have to pay for them." .”

"There can't be sheepskin, I don't see it."

"To prevent moisture and oil, the top-quality rice paper is covered with a layer of sheepskin. If you don't believe me, go to the Wenmo shop and ask."

Tian Erya was stupefied, and she died down, "I'm sorry, Mr. Wu, I was the one to be rude."

Wu Xiangrong snorted softly: "I'm an imposing seven-foot man, would I covet your 200 taels of silver? I really have shallow eyesight and a frog at the bottom of a well."

Tian Erya bowed her head and apologized repeatedly.

"I thought I explained it to you before, and the matter of rice paper has already turned the page. Unexpectedly, you listened to other people's few words, sowing discord, and became suspicious in your heart. I don't want to have anything to do with you. Now it's not far from the shore, pick up Leave your things." Wu Xiangrong said sarcastically before leaving.

Tian Erya lowered her head in embarrassment, feeling very uncomfortable, went back to the utility room to pack up her things, and waited for the boat to go ashore to leave.

Wu Xiangrong stood at the stern of the boat, watched her back, and arranged for the servants to follow.

The butler looked confused: "Master, who is he? Why do you care so much about him?"

"Shut your mouth, you shouldn't know, don't ask." Wu Xiangrong saw that Tian Erya had started selling scissors on the shore, he was angry and helpless, this woman's ability to adapt was much stronger than he imagined.

Tian Erya yelled all afternoon and sold five pairs of scissors.She happily bought a few cornbreads, and went to the nearby ruined temple with a bamboo basket on her back.When she was selling scissors, she found a temple nearby where she could rest.After dark, he began to nap in the corner.

"In this kind of broken place, there is no quilt or cover, and I sleep soundly."

The sudden male voice made Jing Tian Erya open her eyes and feel for the scissors on her waist.

The person who came was covered with a black cloth and grabbed her wrist first.

Tian Erya was in pain, and the scissors fell to the ground.She hit the man in the face with her free other hand, but she was easily controlled by both hands and thrown to the ground.Just when she was panicking, the torches in the house lit up and lit up.The man tore off the black cloth, revealing Wu Xiangrong's handsome face.

Seeing her turn from surprise to joy, Wu Xiangrong snorted softly: "Now you know the difficulty of being alone in the rivers and lakes?"

"Oh." Tian Erya rubbed her wrist: "Mr. Wu, why are you here?"

"Passing by. You are penniless, and you still want to go to Ninggu Pagoda? It's not far from the entrance gate of the capital. You can sell scissors and scrape together a few pennies to fill your stomach. However, if you go further north, there are few people. , if your scissors cannot be sold, you will be unable to move an inch. Listen to me, stay and don’t take that risk.”

"Thank you Mr. Wu for your kindness, but I have already made up my mind that I must go to Ninggu Pagoda to find Zheng Yuansheng."

Wu Xiangrong yelled: "You don't get in, don't you understand? There are many bandits and wild wolves on the road. How can you protect yourself as a girl?"

Tian Erya's expression was firm: "If something unexpected happens, it will be my destiny. I can only admit it."

Wu Xiangrong took a deep breath and said with a livid face: "Look at me seriously, I will teach you some self-defense techniques. Maybe you will need them in the future."

Tian Erya was pleasantly surprised: "Master Wu, you are really kind."

Wu Xiangrong glared at him, and put on a posture of choking his throat to escape.

His movements are so smooth and smooth, in Tian Erya's eyes, he is dazzled.

After Wu Xiangrong finished the practice, seeing Tian Erya's confused expression, he also knew that she didn't understand. He repeated it several times until he saw that she suddenly understood.He took out a stack of bank notes from his pocket: "I'll take your more than 200 taels of silver to invest, and I'll earn double, so you take it."

Tian Erya's head shook like a rattle.

"Don't shake it anymore, you're already stupid, shake your mind even more confused." Wu Xiangrong forced her the money, "Don't refuse, it's my sister who stunned you in Zheng Yuansheng's new house, and our Wu family will give it to you." compensation."

"It's really not necessary, Miss Wu has already given me a lot of money." Tian Erya showed a silly smile.
