Chapter 16

Bai Suzhen and Xiao Qing stood in the pavilion, and Xiao Qing asked helplessly, "Brother, it's hard to deal with this guy. What should we do? We must find a way to repay the favor quickly."

Bai Suzhen didn't speak, but walked out of the pavilion, Xiao Qing hurriedly followed behind.

When Xu Xian came home, Xu Jiaorong saw Xu Xian in such a distressed state, her heart ached, she went to boil water for Xu Xian to take a bath and change clothes.Xu Xian was even more determined to let Xu Jiaorong live a comfortable life.

Early the next morning, without Xu Jiaorong calling her, she got up energetically and went out to Qingyu Hall.

Xu Xian was even more active in Qingyu Hall this day, which won the praise of Wang Yuanwai.Moreover, Xu Xian seemed to have a photographic memory for those medicinal materials, which made him think that it was time to teach Xu Xian to learn medicine.

"Xu Xian, take this back home. Madam made it herself." Wang Yuanwai took out an oil paper bag when Xu Xian was about to go home, and it was still emitting bursts of fragrance.

"Chicken leg." Xu Xian smelled it all at once.

"Hehe, yes. Take it home and eat." Wang Yuanwai looked at Xu Xian's somewhat thin figure and said pitifully.He knew that Xu Xian's family was in a difficult situation.

"Well, thank you, Wang Yuanwai." Xu Xian was not pretentious, and reached out to take it, thanking him again and again.

This unpretentious behavior made Wang Yuanwai feel a little better.

After bidding farewell to Wang Yuanwai, Xu Xian happily walked home with an oil paper bag.Thinking about going home can improve my life.And pearls, pearls, when will they be sold for money?

Xu Xian thought of this, put the oil paper bag into the cloth bag he was carrying, and took out the Pearl Mosuo.How much can this sell for? 100 taels?Or two hundred, or three hundred?You have to find out the market price first, or else you will sell it rashly and be slaughtered without knowing what's going on.

"This was once a century-old pearl, and it can be sold for 500 taels of silver." A cold and familiar voice suddenly sounded in Xu Xian's ear.

Xu Xian was taken aback, isn't this Bai Suzhen's voice?It really deserves to be a demon, haunted by ghosts.

However, 500 taels, can it really sell for so much money?When Xu Xian thought of this, his saliva was about to flow out again.However, she suddenly caught a word.Once?Was this a century-old pearl?What do you mean by that?
Soon Xu Xian knew what it meant.

A beautiful hand with slender fingers stretched out in front of her eyes, and gently patted her palm.The round pearl turned into powder.Then, the wind blows... and then, it's gone.

Xu Xian stared blankly at his palm, then mechanically turned around to look at Bai Suzhen who was standing next to him with an expressionless face.

No more, 500 taels are gone!

"I'll kill you!" Xu Xian yelled, tears streaming down his face, and he was about to fight Bai Suzhen with his hands.

"It's just a hundred-year-old pearl." Bai Suzhen was unmoved, and said calmly, "To repay Brother Xu's kindness, let alone one, I can give ten."

Xu Xian's outstretched hand froze in mid-air.

Xiao Qing stood behind and couldn't help sneering.Sure enough, sure enough.Upon hearing this, Xu Xian stopped moving.Really greedy, human beings are indeed disgusting animals.

"Oh, just to repay the kindness, you destroy the things others gave me." But the anger contained in Xu Xian's calm voice gave Xiao Qing a pause. "What's the difference between your behavior and strong buying and selling? Don't you think your behavior is despicable and shameless?"
