Chapter 112 Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road



After leaving Han's house, Tian An and her party did not return to Shangba Village. It was a rare opportunity for her to go out, so she wanted to go around and have a look.

First we went to the clothing store.

I saw Han Xun's mother this morning. Her clothes were so torn that they couldn't be patched up anymore. And it seems that Han Xun is a very filial son. If his mother is in such a state, then her son will not be much better!

Tian An first picked out a cotton dress for Han Xunniang based on her figure that he saw today, which was suitable for their age.

But when it came to Han Xun's turn, they were in trouble. They had never seen Han Xun before!

Deng Xue suggested, "Miss, we can buy something bigger. If it doesn't fit, we can ask Deng Shuang to alter it when we get back."

Tian An also thought it was okay, so he decided to buy something bigger rather than smaller. He then chose a blue robe that was slightly smaller than Zhao Yiming's.

Zhao Yiming was puzzled and asked, "Why did An An choose someone based on my height?"

Tian An smiled and said, "Because I met my mother-in-law today, and she wasn't short, I guessed that Mr. Han wasn't short either.

Brother Yiming and Mr. Han are both scholars, so I think they should be about the same height. However, Brother Yiming practices martial arts while Mr. Han doesn't, so Mr. Han is probably not as tall as Brother Yiming, so he is a little shorter.

Zhao Yiming was the tallest in the village, partly because of his martial arts training and partly because his family had no land and no farm work.

Han Xun was banned from taking the exam for life because of his family's involvement, which shows that his family must be quite large. After all, families that can make big mistakes are usually not small. In the past, he had good conditions, good food and good housing, and his mother was not short, so Tian An thought that Han Xun's stature would naturally not be short.

This was also the first time Zhao Yiming heard someone calculate someone's height in this way.

Deng Xue said with a fangirl look on her face: "You are amazing, girl! You even thought of this."

Tian An said proudly: "That's right."

After paying, she took the two of them to the pharmacy. She had medicine in her space that could cure Han Xunniang, but she couldn't just take it out. So she went to the pharmacy to buy some herbs first, and then she would say she made it herself.

After that, we went to the market again, shopping as we went, and the amount of things we bought almost filled up half of the ox cart.

This was also the first time Zhao Yiming saw Tian An's ability to spend money. In the past, he only thought that Tian An was good at making money and had many money-making ideas one after another.

At this moment, I felt that Tian An was quite good at spending money. He bought things one after another. If he could bargain, he would negotiate the price. If he couldn't bargain, he would just buy it directly without blinking an eye.

Watching Tian An taking out handfuls of money, Zhao Yiming secretly thought to himself, why not go to the mountains one day to look for tigers.

Seeing Zhao Yiming distracted, Tian An waved his hand in front of him: "Brother Yiming, what are you thinking about!"

"Thinking about Tiger!" Zhao Yiming said subconsciously.

...It took Tian An a long time to react: "Brother Yiming, do you think I spend too much money?"

Then he stared at Zhao Yiming's face without blinking, not missing a single expression.

Zhao Yiming curled his lips slightly and touched Tian An's head: "I'm thinking about how to make more money for you to spend."

Tian An chuckled. "Do you think the mountain is your tiger park? If you go looking for tigers every time you run out of money, the tigers there will probably smell you from a distance and run away. How can you really kill a tiger?"

Zhao Yiming frowned, as if wondering how else he could make money besides using tigers.

Tian An stood on tiptoe and stroked his frowning brow: "Okay, Brother Yiming, I didn't spend money recklessly. The things I bought are all useful!"

Zhao Yiming pulled her hand down and held it in his palm: “I know.

Hey! An An, you are so outstanding. I am afraid that if I don’t work harder, I will not be worthy of you. The rice tastes better when it is harder.”

……Hahaha……

"Don't worry! Brother Yiming, you scholars are all late bloomers. It's hard work before happiness. You will definitely make a lot of money in the future."

Zhao Yiming nodded without thinking too much, but he made a note of the idea of ​​making more money.

Deng Xue, who was carrying a pot of chrysanthemums, asked in confusion: "Girl, you just said that everything you bought is useful, then what is the use of this pot of flowers?"

Tian An just said: "Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon! After Mid-Autumn Festival there is Double Ninth Festival."

Deng Xue still didn't understand what the Mid-Autumn Festival, Double Ninth Festival and chrysanthemums had to do with each other!

Zhao Yiming knew that scholars loved to appreciate chrysanthemums during the Mid-Autumn Festival and Double Ninth Festival. "But it's probably too late to plant chrysanthemums now. Mid-Autumn Festival is only a few days away."

Tian An nodded: "I was too busy this year and didn't think about it. Oh! Another business opportunity missed!"

Zhao Yiming thought about the pots of flowers in the half-bowl of sweetness and said tentatively, "If I go to the flower farmers and buy lower-quality chrysanthemums at a low price, can I improve the quality like I did with the pots of peonies in the store and make a profit from the difference?"

Huh? Tian An's eyes lit up. Why hadn't she thought of that? "Brother Yiming, you're so smart. This way, even if we miss the Mid-Autumn Festival, we can still make a fortune on the Double Ninth Festival."

Tian An was a man of impetuous character, always ready to act on anything he thought of. He simply bought some steamed buns and other groceries on the street and headed off to find the flower farmer.

Then I went to the flower garden, negotiated the price, paid a deposit and asked the flower farmer to deliver the flowers to my home within two days, and then returned to the county town.

Tian An was too tired today to go back to Shangba Village. She planned to find an inn to stay for the night. She would go find Han Xun early tomorrow morning to avoid him going into the mountains again and not being able to see him.

The roads in this era are all bumpy dirt roads. The ox cart ride in the morning almost shook her bones apart. If she goes back tonight and comes again tomorrow, she doesn't know if she will still have the energy to talk to Han Xun.

They found a similar inn on the street and went in to ask for two rooms. Just as they paid and were about to go to the room, someone bumped into Tian An's arm when they turned around.

Tian An looked up and saw, wow! What a narrow road for enemies to cross! Unexpectedly, before she could say anything, the other party started the attack first.

"You blind thing, you want to just walk away after bumping into someone?" Sun Ying on the opposite side said arrogantly.

Tian An crossed his arms over his chest and raised his chin as he said, "I don't have eyes on the back of my head, but the beads in some people's eye sockets are probably useless."

Deng Xue stepped in front of Tian An, taking a protective stance, and said, "That definitely can't be used. Otherwise, how could someone bump into someone else and then turn the tables on them?"

Ha ha ha ha

These two sentences made the people who were eating at the inn burst into laughter, and they enjoyed their meals more while watching the show.

Sun Ying was furious. She opened her mouth but didn't know how to refute. She wanted to scold the people who laughed at her, but everyone was laughing and she didn't know who to scold.

However, some people were shameless and simply ignored the previous sentence, abruptly changing the subject and even laughingly mockingly saying, "Ha! Some poor people, seeing that I am rich, are pretending to bump into me accidentally, but in fact they want to take the opportunity to steal something!"

Oh! So you're waiting here!
