Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year

Chapter 207 Who is the legitimate daughter of the Xie family?

The man held up his hands and smiled respectfully: "We are hunters from the nearby Queshan Forest Farm. These wood are grown at home and were originally used for winter."

"But Miss should also know that the drought in the past few years was so severe and there were dead people everywhere, so after discussion, we decided to sell the contracted forest farm."

“Dig a few pits in the forest farm and store water. The wood would normally be sold for ten taels per catty, but no, it rained suddenly a few days ago and our wood was soaked.”

“Wet wood can’t be used for fire, so I just wanted to try my luck and see if someone would buy it back and make a wood sculpture. Would you be interested, Miss?”

Several people gathered around to join in the fun. After hearing this, they burst into laughter.

 “You are not honest, this wood is already wet, why are you still trying to trick people into buying it?”

“That’s right, little girl, don’t be fooled by him. They dragged it here just now, and no one asked. After all, this wet wood won’t be used this winter, and two ounces and one pound are too expensive!”

“If you buy it back, it’s just useless firewood. You can’t even burn it, and it still takes up space.”

They were talking to each other, and the man selling wood said angrily: "If you don't buy it, don't talk. The lady hasn't made a decision yet."

Shen Ningning blinked her dark eyes, her chubby little face thinking about something.

 Suddenly, she asked: “How much wood do you have?”

“We still have one thousand kilograms in the warehouse of the forest farm. Miss, do you want it?” It’s been a whole day and no business has been made.

 Feeling that Shen Ningning seemed to be interested in buying, the man couldn't help but smile with surprise and rubbed his hands again and again.

Shen Ningning nodded: "I can have it, but the price is too expensive. After all, wet wood cannot be used. If you give me a cheap price, I will consider it."

 The man was overjoyed and looked at the person next to him, and the two of them thought about it for a moment.

Turning to the little guy, he said: "Miss, since you are so sincere in wanting to buy it, we won't hold it. We only charge you a total of 1,800 taels for the 1,000 kilograms in the warehouse, okay?"

Shen Ningning thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but I don't have any money now. Follow me and get it."

 The passers-by couldn't stand it anymore, shook their heads and walked away.

 “This little girl is going to be deceived.”

Wuchun, who was standing behind Shen Ningning, couldn't help but whisper: "Princess, there is really no need for you to buy these."

Wan Chun also said: "Yes, Princess, whatever you want, the prime minister's office has it. In winter, we only burn charcoal, not firewood."

Shen Ningning shook her head: "I have use for these pieces of wood."

Even if she is not afraid of the cold, grandma is. It snowed early this year, so it must be a very cold winter!

Shen Ningning thought about how uncomfortable it was for her and her grandma to huddle in a drafty room last year during the bitterly cold winter.

The drought has just passed and charcoal fire resources are scarce. Even if you want to buy one, it must be very expensive.

The little girl knew that she had no money now. Since the drug store collapsed, she had to find a way to get money elsewhere.

She can't just take care of herself, she also has to consider that her grandma and the wolves behind her have to live a comfortable life.

 With firewood, I don’t feel panic.

What's more, she was reluctant to cut down the big trees in the fairyland. Firstly, she had no strength, and secondly, it was a pity.

Even though the wood is wet now, she will send it to the fairyland when no one is around.

 After drying in the sunshine in the fairyland, it can be used sooner or later in winter.

Wolves and wolves can also get together and have a warm winter.

 Shen Ningning took them back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"You two wait outside." Wuchun said to the two men with the aura of a big maid, and then accompanied Shen Ningning into the house.

Shen Ningning went straight to Xie Suzhi's study.

 She wanted to borrow two thousand taels from her godfather first.

As soon as I walked outside the study room, I heard Xie Zhanjiu’s voice coming from inside—

“Uncle, I wanted to spend four hundred taels to invite some of my close friends to host a banquet, but my mother said she didn’t dare to make the decision, so she asked me to ask you what you wanted.”

Shen Ningning paused and was hesitating whether to wait until Xie Yuanjiu finished speaking before going in. Unexpectedly, Xie Suzhi's confidant guard outside the door smiled and greeted her when he saw her: "The princess is here!"

 After a moment, Xie Suzhi opened the door and walked towards the little guy gently: "Ning Ning is here. Godfather still has some official business on hand. After finishing it, he will take you out for a walk."

 As he said that, he led Shen Ningning in.

 Xie Yuanjiu glanced at the little guy.

Shen Ningning originally smiled sweetly at her, but unexpectedly, Xie Yuanjiu quickly withdrew his gaze and lowered his head expressionlessly.

The little girl licked her lips awkwardly, just as Xie Suzhi asked her: "Ning Ning, why did you come to see your godfather?"

Shen Ningning blinked her big dark eyes and said, "Godfather, can I borrow two thousand taels of silver from you?"

Xie Suzhi just picked up the pen, paused after hearing the words, smiled and took the token from his waist directly, and handed it to Mu Chun.

"Take it and take the princess to the accountant. You can have as much money as you want. I allow it."

 Xie Yuanjiu suddenly raised his head and looked at Xie Suzhi in shock.

Shen Ningning's eyes widened in shock, and she quickly asked: "Daddy, why don't you ask me what I am doing with the money?"

Xie Suzhi smiled gently: "You are not a child who spends money randomly. Just buy whatever you want. My godfather said he will compensate you and take care of you, so why bother asking?"

"From now on, if you want to spend money, you can go and get it at any time. You don't have to say hello to me anymore."

 This is simply the ultimate favor and trust.

Xie Yuanjiu secretly clenched her fists under her sleeves.

Shen Ningning smiled happily, with cute pear circles on her fair and tender face.

“Thank you godfather, I will pay it back!” When the time comes, she will find a few more pharmacies to sell some herbal medicine.

 Then, the little guy said goodbye and left with Late Spring and Late Spring.

 Xie Yuanjiu spoke again: "Uncle..."

She called twice, but Xie Suzhi didn't respond. When she looked up, she saw that Xie Suzhi was still looking at the door, smiling gently in the direction where Shen Ningning left.

The look in his eyes was like that of a loving father with emotion, thinking that his daughter would finally spend his money, and he was extremely happy.

Xie Yuanjiu suddenly felt uncomfortable and shouted loudly: "Uncle!"

 Xie Suzhi came back to his senses, his eyes suddenly became dull and deep.

"Xuanjiu, I have considered the proposal you just made. You did something wrong in the palace and there are some bad rumors."

“So these days, I suggest you not to hold high-profile banquets. If you really want to get together with friends, just spend a hundred taels of silver and find a restaurant.”

 After saying that, he lowered his head and dealt with official duties seriously: "Go to the accountant to get the money."

Xie Yuanjiu's face turned pale, anger suddenly rose in his heart, and his breathing became rapid.

She wanted to question loudly.

 Why did Shen Ningning want two thousand taels and give it to her without asking the reason?

 And she only wanted four hundred taels, but it was as difficult as going to heaven!

 Who is the legitimate daughter of the Xie family?

 Xie Yuanjiu felt bitterness and anger intertwined in her heart.

 She was going to keep an eye on Shen Ningning to see where she spent her money.

She didn’t believe that a child could not spend two thousand taels randomly!

　　Xie Yuanjiu Fushen, maintaining the final decency: "I understand, uncle, I will leave first."

She chased after him with a gloomy expression, and happened to reach the door. She saw Shen Ningning already holding the banknote and talking to the two men outside the door.

Xie Yuanjiu’s eyes turned cold and he quietly approached to eavesdrop.
