Chapter 163 We Don't Want What Others Don't Want
"What's wrong?" Si He asked Qing Bao, looking down at her.
The little guy looked at me with wide, pleading eyes and said, "I won't buy her."
Si He asked gently, "Why?"
"We don't want what others don't want either," Qingbao waved her hand nonchalantly. "If it were something good, everyone would be fighting over it. Would we even have a chance?"
Si He remained silent for a moment.
Surprisingly, it makes some sense!
"Then let's not buy it. Let's go and look at other places."

The waiter quietly approached the street corner.
"She really said that?" The woman in white was shocked. After realizing what she had said, she gritted her teeth inwardly.
Damn underworld creatures, how dare they say that cultivators are unwanted?
I'll tell Senior Sister Tang Chen later and see how she teaches this little brat a lesson.
"Of course, I recommended you as you suggested. Originally, that lady took pity on you, but after that little girl said a few words, they left..."
He scratched his head, not understanding why he should listen to a three-year-old when it came to hiring servants.
"Um, what about the benefits you promised me?" the waiter asked with a smile.
The woman in white casually picked up a stone and tossed it to him.
The stone instantly turned into gold.
The waiter was dumbfounded and kept thanking the woman.

Streetside.
The woman in white said something to Tang Chen.
Tang Chen slowly opened her cold eyes and sighed, "What she said makes sense. Qinghui, go find someone."
Since Qingbao said that good things will always find a buyer, she changed her strategy.
We need to find a huge number of people to fight over her.

When Si He returned with Qing Bao, two little girls with dirty clothes followed behind them timidly with their heads down, not daring to say a word.
The mother and daughter swaggered past Tang Chen and Qing Hui with them.
Qinghui's eyes flashed with anger as she lowered her voice and cursed, "They buy these two dirty girls, but not us."
Tang Chen ignored her and remained seated with her eyes closed.
soon.
The people they were looking for arrived.
Many men, holding silver notes, surrounded them, threatening to buy them.
"Girl, come to my house and be my maid. My family will never mistreat you."
"Yeah, instead of buying something ugly, it's better to buy something pretty like you. It's pleasing to the eye, isn't it?"
“My family is mostly women, so don’t worry about seducing the master. Come to my house.”
A crowd surrounded Tang Chen and scrambled to grab her.
Qinghui watched this scene with a sense of smug satisfaction.
Since nobody wants it and you're afraid to take it, now that everyone's scrambling for it, Qingbao, shouldn't you step in?
Sure enough, seeing the commotion, Sihe and her daughter stopped in their tracks.
"Qingbao, this looks like that girl from earlier. So many people are trying to take her away."
They don't want things that nobody else wants.
So many people are scrambling to buy them? Shouldn't they join in the fun too?
Qingbao sucked on the candied hawthorn in her hand, looking on with a gossipy expression.
"It's so popular, we can't accept it."
"Why?"
Qingbao explained with a smile, "We don't want two kinds of people: those who don't want what others don't want, and those who are eagerly sought after by others."
The two little girls behind her tilted their heads and looked at her, not understanding why.
Qingbao said, "She's so popular, and she has so many other options if she leaves our family. She must not be loyal enough. Let's go."
These words reached Qinghui's ears.
Qinghui was almost driven mad with anger!
I don't want this, I don't want that, what do I want?
Tang Chen glanced at her. "No rush."
Their attire and demeanor were too ethereal, so it's normal for Qingbao to be wary.
If she had simply taken them back, she definitely wouldn't have been able to kill so many of Tianxian's people.
On the contrary, it's Qingbao's personality that makes people want to take on the challenge.
Tang Chen's eyes held a hint of appreciation and determination.

I bought several outfits with my two little girls.
Sihe and Qingbao then arrived at the house they had bought.
The house has three courtyards, neither too big nor too small, and the two maids and two masters live a somewhat empty life.
The yard was overgrown with weeds, and it looked like no one had lived there for a year or two.
"Madam, is this the little home you spoke of?" A maid asked, her eyes filled with shock.
She seemed to have never seen such a beautiful house before.
"Yes, we'll live here from now on. Let's clean up the main courtyard first so we can get a good night's sleep!"
Si He had already bought the cleaning supplies, and she rolled up her sleeves and started working skillfully.
The two girls were dumbfounded and quickly tried to grab it.
“You are a lady, how can you do such work?”
"It's alright, I'm used to it. We're in a rush today, so having more people will make it faster. We'll talk about it after we finish cleaning this time..."
Even with maids to serve her, Sihe's inherent resilience remained unchanged.
Sometimes, doing things yourself is more effective than ordering others to do them.
The three of them then divided up the tasks.
Some people were sweeping the floor, some were wiping the dust, and some were shoveling weeds.
Work from noon until sunset.
Qingbao, with her bottom sticking out, pushed the rag on the floor and slid from one end of the corridor to the other.
A cloud of black mist suddenly appeared, and Fu Tu looked at her helplessly.
"Why go through all that trouble? Just call a few ghosts to help, and it'll be done in no time."
Looking at the three busy women again, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
Sihe really doesn't know how to enjoy life.
"What do you know? This is called being down-to-earth. If you can't even do a little housework, how will you become a responsible person for your family in the future!"
The little guy rolled up his sleeves, revealing his fair little arms, and looked quite proud.
"Float higher, don't make the floor I just mopped dirty."
Fu Tu was speechless: "I'm not a physical ghost, how could I possibly dirty your ground!"
"Then get away from me, don't come near me." The little guy pushed the rag away with both hands, stuck out his little bottom, and started sliding around.
They are so cute.
Fu Tu lowered his head and looked down at her from under her buttocks. "Are you angry with me?"
"Angry at you? You little devil, you dare to make me angry?" Qingbao ignored him.
Continue pushing the floor.
The water stains dried and then got wet again, but the floor was clean and shiny.
Fu Tu has already made a pact with her, and he must obey her every command at all times.
But that day, he abandoned Xia Jingheng and ran away.
This almost caused Qingbao's ambition to unify the three realms to be thwarted, as she nearly lost a large part of the human world.
"I have my reasons, and I don't know why," Fu Tu said, frowning with a pained expression.
Dressed in all white, he floated behind the little girl's upturned bottom, chasing after her to explain.
Qingbao has finally finished wiping.
She plopped down on the steps and threw the rag at Fu Tu.
Fu Tu caught the black mist, and then that wisp of black mist carried a rag and wiped everything.
"My memory is incomplete, can you help me find it?" After holding back for a long time, he finally spoke.
Qingbao turned her head angrily, "What? You've already forgotten about betraying me so quickly?"
"Betrayal?" Fu Tu's eyelids twitched. "Isn't that a bit too serious?"
Qingbao raised her eyebrows, looking indignant. "You didn't save Jingheng and instead ran away on your own. That's betrayal."
That's it?
"Skimmed away without permission?" Fu Tu roared to the sky.
It's a misunderstanding!
That's so unfair.
Every time Xia Jingheng appeared, he couldn't help but stay away.
What could he do?
