Chapter 19 Chapter 19 Invincible power, unparalleled bravery, raising...
Ruan Mingyu returned to the store and gave the jade pendant that was broken into two pieces to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper said: "I just said that other stores have the same price as mine."
Ruan Mingyu: "Please help me fix it."
The shopkeeper was very good at selling things. "Would you like to take a look at the jade pendants in my shop? We also have jade hairpins, jade rings, jade beads, and everything else. They're all top-quality goods."
"No need..." Ruan Mingyu then thought about it again. Song Chenxi gave him something, so there was no reason for him not to return the favor. He changed his words and said, "Let me take a look."
The shopkeeper brought him to a row of jade artifacts. There were so many things that it was dizzying.
Ruan Mingyu picked out a jade seal. He didn't know what necklaces or hairpins Song Chenxi would wear.
He pointed to the seal with a Qilin engraved on it and asked, "How much is this?"
Shopkeeper: "One hundred spirit stones."
"So expensive?" After adding the spirit stones used to repair the jade pendant, he didn't have much left.
The shopkeeper was very shrewd and immediately changed it to a smaller one and showed it to him: "This one only costs seventy spirit stones."
Ruan Mingyu looked at the smaller one. Although it was much cheaper, it was too small. He didn't understand what elegance was. He just felt that it wasn't majestic and domineering enough.
So he gritted his teeth and said to the shopkeeper, "I want the big one, but can it be cheaper? To be honest, my brother's biggest wish is to have a jade seal. What a pity, my brother is such a good person..."
After much persuasion, the shopkeeper finally agreed to give him a discount.
"Alright, alright, there's no point in acting like a spoiled brat. This is already the lowest price, ninety spirit stones, take it right away."
Ruan Mingyu nodded immediately: "Okay."
The shopkeeper asked, "What do you want to engrave on it?"
Ruan Mingyu thought for a moment and said, "This is my invincible, brave, and unrivaled senior brother Song Chenxi."
"This is the only large one with so many characters. I can't carve a smaller one. Wait three days and come back to get the jade pendant and seal together."
After waiting for three days, Ruan Mingyu finally got the thing.
He took the things and went out and met Gu Xiaoxiao again.
He seemed very excited to see Ruan Mingyu.
"I waited for three days and finally met you."
Ruan Mingyu thought that the pills he was selling were about to be discovered and that the elixir was coming to settle the score with him, so he quickly ran away.
Unexpectedly, this man, though not very smart, was incredibly strong physically. He rushed forward and grabbed Ruan Mingyu's wrist.
Ruan Mingyu: "Once the pills are sold, no refunds will be given."
"What refund?" he said. "That's not why I came to you."
Ruan Mingyu: "Then why are you looking for me?"
He stared at Ruan Mingyu motionlessly, as if something had bloomed on Ruan Mingyu's face.
Ruan Mingyu was horrified by his stare.
After a long time, Gu Xiaoxiao finally let go of his hand.
"It's similar, but I always feel like something is missing." He touched his chin, "By the way, don't scold me."
Ruan Mingyu: “…” The tops in the book all seem to be sick. I won’t feel happy unless I scold them.
Ruan Mingyu said, "If you don't like Song Chenxi, go find him. Why come to me? If he scolds you, you scold him. What's the point of coming to me?"
Gu Xiaoxiao: "He's mean to you."
Ruan Mingyu: "..." This guy's brain is probably not working very well. I think he is also sick. Why waste time talking to him.
Ruan Mingyu was about to leave. Seeing him leave, Gu Xiaoxiao hurriedly said, "Why are you leaving? Talk to me again."
Ruan Mingyu: "I'm very busy. I have to go back to the mountain to make elixirs."
Gu Xiaoxiao: "Can I buy you two more boxes of pills?"
Ruan Mingyu stopped and immediately put on a service smile: "Fellow Daoist, please feel free to ask anything you want to know. I will tell you everything I know."
Gu Xiaoxiao took him to the hotel: "Let's sit down and talk slowly."
When they got to the restaurant, he handed the menu to Ruan Mingyu and asked him to order. Ruan Mingyu didn't hesitate and ordered a lot of his favorite dishes.
Ruan Mingyu smiled even more brightly as he was given free food and drinks and money.
"Is there anything wrong, fellow Daoist?"
Gu Xiaoxiao said, "Just call me Xiao from now on." As he said that, he poured Ruan Mingyu a few glasses of wine.
Ruan Mingyu nodded and called out, "Xiao." Although it sounded a bit disgusting, who told him to give so much?
Gu Xiaoxiao sat down and drank a few glasses with him. His face flushed with alcohol and he poured out all the unhappiness in his heart.
"I have nothing but money. I know nothing, I can do nothing, and I'm always being cheated!"
"Why are you talking nonsense in broad daylight? Isn't it good to have money?" Ruan Mingyu was also a little drunk.
Gu Xiaoxiao: "It's really nice to chat with you."
Ruan Mingyu: "Remember to buy medicine, I won't talk in vain."
Gu Xiaoxiao was drunk and almost climbed onto the table. He reached out to touch Ruan Mingyu's face.
"Just talk, don't use violence." Ruan Mingyu opened his hand.
Gu Xiaoxiao retracted her hand and suddenly burst into tears: "I've never been scolded like this in my life. Your senior brother is really a piece of shit."
I guess he was scolded a lot by Song Chenxi in the secret realm.
Ruan Mingyu: "It's okay. You'll get used to it after being scolded a few times."
Gu Xiaoxiao's face flushed, and she looked drunk as she approached him: "Can you imitate him and scold me?"
Ruan Mingyu exclaimed, "Ah!" There are such requirements in the world.
“That’s not good.”
Gu Xiaoxiao: "I can give you money."
Ruan Mingyu immediately said, "Of course you can scold me. You can scold me however you want."
Gu Xiaoxiao: "Just try calling me a waste."
Ruan Mingyu: "Trash."
Gu Xiaoxiao: "No, your tone is too gentle. Be more fierce."
Ruan Mingyu: "That's fine, but it costs extra."
Gu Xiaoxiao stuffed a bag of spirit stones into his hand and said, "Okay, go ahead and scold me."
Ruan Mingyu took a sip of tea and moistened his throat. "You're such a good-for-nothing, you can't do anything. Why did your family raise a thing like you? I'd rather have a piece of barbecued pork than you!"
Seeing him staring at her infatuatedly, not moving at all, Ruan Mingyu waved his palm in front of him: "Did you scold me harshly? I can use a gentle version, and you can give me some more money."
Gu Xiaoxiao regained consciousness: "No... just curse more."
Ruan Mingyu thought it was weird, he had never met a normal person since he came to this world, but for the sake of money, he used all his life's knowledge and scolded him to death, and only left when he was satisfied.
Ruan Mingyu was very generous after getting the money. When he passed by the stall on his way back, he bought a blanket for his senior sister's cat, some new thread for his senior brother, and a bottle of wine for his master.
Song Chenxi's things had already been bought, so he didn't spend any more money. Finally, he thought about it and bought some things for Aunt Man, his cousin and his wife, and their children and sent them to them.
