Chapter 212
"Young master, I am grateful for your life-saving grace, and I am willing to stay with you and take care of you..." The woman did not give up after being kicked away.

Xiao'er couldn't help but rolled her eyes, how could women in ancient times always be so bloody in repaying favors, and they always wanted to promise each other with their bodies in the end.

"Girl, it was that elder brother who saved you! You wanted to repay the favor and found the wrong person." Xiao'er said, she wondered if she would be happy or not.

There was a scar on Dark Guard Fourteen's face, and he looked a bit hideous.

The woman holding the baby also came over at this time, "Thank you, my lord, for saving me!"

Shangguan Xuanyi nodded, but didn't speak, he didn't care about these trivial matters, he just wanted to leave quickly.

"Find some clothes for the child to change!" Xiao'er reminded.

The woman nodded and ran away.

"Brother Shangguan, my stomach feels uncomfortable and I want to vomit." Seeing that he still wanted to carry her on his back, Xiao'er hurriedly stopped him.

"If you are in the mood to meddle in your own business, how can you feel uncomfortable?" Don't let her feel uncomfortable, maybe she will jump into the river again next time!

But he thought so, but he still changed his posture, and changed to the princess's hug. After all, he still couldn't bear the girl's discomfort.

Shangguan Xuanyi knew that he was doomed, completely defeated by her, and became unprincipled, but he was still willing.

Xiao'er looked at the sky speechlessly, did she want to go to the ground?She felt ashamed to be hugged like a child after living two lifetimes.

"Young master asked him to save me, so of course I have to repay you." The woman glanced at the guard and quickly lowered her head in fright.

She only wanted to repay the favor when she saw that the purple-clothed man was handsome, dignified, extraordinary, and presumably he was from everyone.

As for other people, he is lucky to be able to save himself, and he wants to repay the favor himself!How can this be!

The secret guard gave her a contemptuous look. If the master hadn't ordered her to die in front of him, he wouldn't have blinked.

He doesn't even want this kind of woman to pay for a house or shop!
Shangguan Xuanyi didn't even look at her, he changed Xiao'er's position and hugged her and wanted to leave.

But this time it was the villagers who were watching the excitement before.

"You can't just leave like this! If you break this bridge, you have to pay for it!"

"Yes, it's you people who come to Maba to ride horses every year to break our bridge and then leave! Every family in our village has to contribute money to repair the bridge every year!"

"Yes, you are not allowed to leave unless you pay for the money! This bridge was repaired with money from our village. If you break it, you have to pay for it, and if you don't pay for it, you have to repair it!"

A few villagers spoke to each other.

Every year, many young ladies from rich families come to Maba to learn how to ride horses and to play. They are greedy, and they always walk on the wooden bridge built with money from their village.

When the bridge is repaired, it's for people to pass by. At first they didn't care, so let's pass it!It's just that more and more people have crossed the bridge later, causing it to be broken two or three times a year.

In the past, after someone fell into the river, the villagers were eager to save them at first, but some people were not grateful after being rescued, but instead said that the broken bridge built by their village caused them to fall into the river and demanded compensation from the villagers.

After some girls were rescued, they even claimed that the person who rescued them ruined her innocence and demanded compensation.

Everyone didn't want to, and besides, there were so many farmers, so how could they get so much money to pay, and if they didn't pay, they were beaten up severely!Some villagers were so beaten that they could not get out of bed for several days.

Later, the villagers did not dare to rescue even those who fell into the river.

Later, the villagers pooled money to build bridges every year, and more and more people had opinions on pooling money together. It was not easy for anyone to earn money, not to mention that many families had problems even having enough to eat.

There are hundreds of dozens of papers saved throughout the year, but they are all used for bridge repairs.

Shangguan Xuanyi frowned tightly, why is it so troublesome.

Xiao'er took a look at the bridge, the wood was not too old, probably because there were too many people walking, there were already some cracks, and their horses ran too fast and broke due to too much force.

At this time the village head came out, he saluted Shangguan Xuanyi, "Young master..."

Shangguan Xuanyi stretched out his hand to stop him from speaking.

He took out a tael of silver and asked, "Who has clothes suitable for this girl? New ones. Unworn ones. Clean ones."

It seems that I can't rush to the town immediately, I can only see if these farmers have any clothes suitable for this girl.

"My family has it! I just made a new set of clothes for my aunt, and I haven't even tried it on! It's just linen, and it doesn't cost as much as a tael of silver. Fifty cash is enough." A woman said timidly.

"Girl, go and change the wet clothes first." Shangguan Xuanyi lowered his head and said to Xiao'er.

Xiao'er nodded, she is used to washing the newly made clothes before wearing them, but she has clothes in her space, she can wear her own clothes inside, and put on this woman's clothes on the outside, so there is no need to feel wronged to wear a wet suit.

"Lead the way!" Shangguan Xuanyi said to the woman.

"Huh?" The woman didn't understand for a while.

"Auntie, please take me to your house to change clothes."

Only then did the woman understand, and nodded quickly: "Okay, okay, okay, please follow me."

The two walked behind the woman.

"Village chief, what if they run away?"

The village head shook his head, "Let's just wait."

"Brother Shangguan, I can go by myself." Xiao'er wanted to take this opportunity to keep her feet on the ground.

"Hold it warmly." Besides, people's hearts are sinister, knowing people's faces without knowing their hearts, he was worried that she would go alone, but of course he didn't say this.

"I'm not cold!"

Shangguan Xuanyi didn't answer, but still hugged her and followed the woman.

Well, she compromised, and it wouldn't be long anyway.

"I also made a set of clothes for my family, and they were clean and unworn. Do you need to change them, my lord?"

Shangguan Xuanyi shook his head.

He can only wear silk and cotton clothes, and he will be allergic to clothes made of linen.

"Wet clothes can catch cold."

"I'll just use my internal strength to dry it."

Xiao'er didn't say anything after hearing this.

After Xiao'er changed her clothes, Shangguan Xuanyi put a tael of silver on the table and walked out with Xiao'er.

"This is too much, I can't ask for it!" The woman chased out with the money.

"Auntie, take it, take it as a thank you gift from us." Xiao'er turned her head and smiled.

"Is that bad?"

"It was neither stolen nor robbed. It was given by us voluntarily. There is nothing wrong with it."

The woman accepted it and kept thanking her.

The two returned to the bridge.

Shangguan Xuanyi looked at Fourteen.

"My lord, everything is normal."

This is the situation where there is no intentional conspiracy.

Shangguan Xuanyi nodded.

"How much money do I need to pay?" Shangguan Xuanyi looked at the village head.

"Young master, don't be fooled by them. The broken bridge made by their village caused us all to fall into the river and almost died. It's fine if we don't settle accounts with them. They dare to ask us for compensation!" That girl He thought he was doing Shangguan Xuanyi a favor by saying this.

She was still secretly happy in her heart, thinking that Shangguan Xuanyi would bring her by her side because of her cleverness of acting according to circumstances.
