Chapter 21 An acquaintance is here (Additional update! Today’s first recommendation, please help collect and read recommendations)
Amid the envy of the prisoners, Old Shen spent five times as much money to get the keys to several rooms from Liu Mingjie.

She, Xiao Shen, Xie Jinrong and Xie Xiangxiang, as well as their two sons and "direct" grandsons all lived in it.

The other aunts, concubines and granddaughters all went to live in Datongpu.

Datong Shop was opened by Li Rong and others for the prisoners because they were making packaging boxes.

Tang Zhan, his grandfather, and his sister were all in a corner of Datongpu. As soon as he entered the inn, he eagerly received the wood, carving knife, and samples to start working.

Others also went to get paper, scissors, paste, and ribbons to make paper boxes.

Tang Xiaolin was particularly proficient in carving. In the countryside, he often made dowries for newlyweds, furniture for others, and wooden boxes. It was too simple for him.

Tang Zhan can also do it, but he always wanted to join the army and liked boxing and kung fu, so he didn't study his grandfather's skills properly.

Now, making wooden boxes is their chance to survive.

Tang Zhan found Li Rong: "Master Li, can I advance two steamed buns first? My grandfather is too hungry and has no strength to work. Can he make a box and use it as a steamed bun?"

Li Rong only gave him one and said, "If you do something wrong, you will have to pay for it."

Tang Zhan didn't bargain anymore, took the steamed buns and went back.

Xie Yanyan didn't think there was anything wrong with what Li Rong did. On the contrary, she felt that Li Rong was actually quite humane.

Everyone held their breath, the oil lamp was on until the second watch of the rooster crow, and most people made two cardboard boxes.

Although Tang Xiaolin only made one, he was worth hundreds of others.

Not only is the box made smooth and round, the hinges fit tightly, but the wooden box is also carved with lifelike peonies and a butterfly spreading its wings, ready to come out.

"Master Li, this box is worth 5 taels." Xie Yanyan couldn't put it down and was amazed by the handicrafts of the ancients.

Li Rong nodded.

He called Tang Zhan over and gave him 5 steamed buns and a box of patent medicine for treating typhoid fever.

Tang Zhan held the medicine and said gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Li."

Li Rong said nothing. Don't thank me. Miss Xie gave you the medicine.

Those who handed in the cardboard boxes that were qualified were given a steamed bun, but there were also many unqualified ones. Li Rong said to everyone: "Don't be greedy! If the quality is unqualified, you have wasted materials, and tomorrow's meal quota will be deducted." Down."

That means being hungry for a day without giving anything to eat.

Xie Yanyan was tired after a long day and felt a little confused when she leaned on the pillow. However, she was awakened by a knock on the door.

"Who?"

No one answered, and the knocking was insistent.

Xie Yanyan opened the door and looked coldly at Xie Tingting who was crying.

"What are you doing here? I want money, but I won't give it to you! If you want a room, you won't get it! If you want to die, go out, turn left, and go up to the third room to find Mr. Li."

"Third sister..." Xie Tingting immediately started crying.

Xie Yanyan still blocked the door and watched her cry.

[She didn’t let me in even though I was crying like this, I really wanted to tear her face off]

Xie Yanyan: Well, you continue!
"Third sister, I, can you let me in?"

"If you have something to say, don't get married randomly."

"But our surname is Xie. During the day, my grandfather always said angry things. You are my third sister!"

[I’ll let you be proud for a while, then I’ll kill you later, and then I’ll whip you three hundred times]

Oh, you want to kill me, you are so ambitious.

Xie Tingting kept her voice low, but Xie Yanyan didn't control her voice. Xie Ning and Xie Anfeng got up immediately when they heard the noise.

"Yan'er, what's going on?"

Seeing Xie Anfeng and Xie Ning both come out, Xie Tingting was a little angry and said hurriedly: "Third sister, I really have something urgent to do."

[What should I do? I can’t finish what my grandmother and mother told me]

Xie Yanyan stepped away and said, "Come in."

Xie Tingting breathed a sigh of relief and immediately entered Xie Yanyan's room.

Xie Anfeng said: "Yan'er, if anything happens, just call out."

"it is good."

The moment Xie Yanyan came in, all the cells in his body became alert.

Her room was the upper room. Not only was the bed clean and comfortable, but the table and benches were also exquisite. There was a teapot on the table and a stack of uneaten snacks. Xie Tingting looked at the dim sum eagerly, hating her heart to death.

"Third sister, my grandmother wants to give me to Huangfuming as her aunt."

"Oh, you don't want to?"

"The third sister didn't want to, so she forced me... Huangfu Ming is older than my father, and my grandmother asked me to be his aunt, because my grandmother took Huangfu Ming's money and still couldn't pay it back."

"If you don't want to, just tell your father and mother."

Xie Tingting cried so hard that the pear blossoms were covered with rain, and I felt pity for her.

There is a legend in Kyoto that Miss Xie is the most talented woman and Miss Xie is the most beautiful woman.

Indeed, Xie Tingting has not yet fully blossomed, and she is already as beautiful as a woman.

"My father and mother did not dare to disobey my grandparents. They wanted to use me to exonerate Xie Xiangxiang."

"I'm sorry, I can't help it."

Xie Tingting quietly reached for the plate, touched a piece of snack, quickly stuffed it into her mouth, and started eating snacks and drinking tea.

She said sheepishly: "Third sister, I'm starving to death. They all eat themselves. They don't give me food and force me to submit."

Xie Yanyan looked at her quietly.

"Third sister, can I follow you and make paper boxes in exchange for steamed buns?" Xie Tingting said imploringly, "I want to live on my own."

"You just need to go to Mr. Li's place to sign up."

"Thank you, Third Sister. If I don't do well enough, please help me when the time comes and don't fail me."

Xie Tingting stayed here for a while, ate a few snacks, and went back happily after receiving the letter.

Xie Yanyan didn't see her off when she went out. He closed the door and turned off the lights.

Scanning her movement track, she went downstairs and returned to Datongpu. After a while, Mrs. Fang came out of Datongpu and quietly went to Mrs. Shen's room.

Shen's room was not next to Xie Yanyan's, more than 30 meters away, so she couldn't hear the other person's voice or his inner thoughts.

She found a pair of foam-soled shoes from the space, quietly left the room, and found a corner to squat down less than 30 meters away from Shen's room.

Shen: "Have you put it away?"

"Yes, Tingting put it with her own hands, sprinkled it on her body, and put it in the pot."

After Mrs. Fang finished speaking proudly, Mrs. Shen said: "Tell them to be gentle that night."

"Don't worry, they are all practitioners."

"If Xie Anfeng finds out, I will stop them." Xiao Shen said, "If they dare to come upstairs, I will call for the thief to be caught."

"Grandma, I'm going back first." Xie Xiangxiang's voice.

"Xiangxiang, don't worry. As long as we are freed from guilt, you can immediately go to Kyoto to find King Xi and then find a way to free us."

"Yeah." Xie Xiangxiang responded and walked out.

[Will it be poisonous in half an hour? 】

[Huangfu Ming, a merchant, dares to miss me! So annoying! 】

[Fortunately my grandma calculated well]

[It is said that an expert has calculated that a prosperous husband is destined to be rich and powerful, so the fool believes this]

[As long as he gets Yan Yan away, I will take advantage of his shortcomings and he must be exonerated. When he returns to Kyoto, I will not let him go]

Xie Xiangxiang and Xiao Shen quietly returned to the room without turning on the lights. They lay quietly on the bed and listened to the sounds next door.

Xie Yanyan was squatting silently in the corner when he suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from somewhere.

[Damn it, the old godly woman harmed the third lady again]

[Miss Xie San seems to have noticed it, but what can you hear when you are squatting in the corner? 】

[Didn’t you say that she was sprinkled with black powder? It seems like nothing happened]

Xie Yanyan: So familiar!
It seemed that he was the one who wanted to kill Xie Anhuai in the Hou Mansion...
