Chapter 260 Generous Donation
However, they avoided the village that might be full of bandits, but they did not avoid the tea shop not far from the bandit village.
It’s called a tea shop, but which tea shop would block the road?
After the carriage stopped, Zhou Yunshu lifted the curtain. She looked at the owner of a tea shop who was blocking the road with farm tools and walked out of the carriage.
The owner of the tea shop looked at the handsome scholar who came out of the carriage and said, "Sir, you have come a long way. Would you like to rest in our tea shop?"
The tea shop owner who spoke first looked to be around forty years old. Next to him stood a young man around twenty years old and a woman who looked to be around thirty-five or thirty-six years old.
"That's right!" the woman said, "It's getting dark, and our village is just behind us. It won't be too late to stay overnight before moving on."
This sentence is somewhat threatening.
Although the two men spoke politely, the blood-stained farm tools in their hands and the determined smiles on their faces did not look like good people at all.
Zhou Yunshu stood outside the carriage, looking down at the group of people opposite her who looked like a family of three and said, "Thank you for your kindness."
As soon as she raised her hand, all the knives in the hands of Yan Shilei and others were pulled out.
"But we have to hurry, so I'm afraid we can't stay long."
Zhou Yunshu smiled politely and said, "Please make way, or I wouldn't mind leaving some gifts for you."
"It seems you don't understand the rules of our Nanshui Village!" The man's face darkened. "Our tea shop belongs to us in Nanshui Village. If you don't pay, it won't be us three who are here to keep you..."
"ah!"
Before the man could finish his words, he was startled and shut up by the third grader who suddenly waved his hand.
Just because after they sat on the cart and shook their hands on the third day of the New Year, the tea shop flagpole hanging high next to their tea shop broke in the middle and fell in front of the three of them.
It would be easy to explain the neat cut if it was caused by someone cutting the pole in half with a knife, but the reality was that the person who cut the pole didn't even have his feet on the ground and only moved his arms the whole time.
What's even more terrifying is that it seems to have been cut off by a leaf.
The three men swallowed their saliva and looked at the ordinary-looking junior high school student with horror.
Zhou Yunshu continued, "Can you make way now?"
The three people blocking the road looked at each other in bewilderment. Just as the man put the iron rake in his hand behind him, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he said, "We are willing..."
"ah!"
Before the man could finish his words, the young man next to him suddenly let out a scream, attracting the attention of everyone present.
I saw something like a firecracker fall off from the young man's right hand, and his right hand was cut by a leaf and stuck in the ground, bleeding.
Looking closely, he saw that the leaf had actually severed the tendons in his hand.
Now, not only were the three men frightened and took several steps back, but even the people in Zhou Yunshu's own team looked at Chu San in surprise.
People like Yan Shilei who knew a little about the identity of the third grade junior high school student thought that he was worthy of being Zhou Yunshu's person; people like Peng Tianhe who didn't know were now glad again that they had been honest and did not betray Zhou Yunshu when they were in Heishui Village.
Otherwise, the person whose tendons were cut by the leaves might be himself.
As the woman frantically bandaged the young man, who was sweating profusely from fear, Zhou Yunshu continued, "You're right."
The man looked at Zhou Yunshu in confusion and fear. He originally thought that this group of people must be just like the passers-by in the past. They looked powerful but were actually just for show.
He himself has some kung fu skills, and their village is not far away. A firecracker can attract the whole village, so in order to avoid trouble and ensure safety, passers-by will definitely let them skin them before leaving.
So in the past few years, the money they made by blocking the road here was no less than what the villagers made on the river. Especially now that fewer and fewer people were willing to take a boat across the river, the tolls earned by their tea shop were increasing.
But who would have thought that I would meet such a tough guy today.
"We can go to your village and sit down for a while." Zhou Yunshu raised the corner of her mouth and said, "I think your village has earned a lot of money in bribes and life insurance during this period. We just happened to pick up some extra money for travel."
Zhou Yunshu pointed at the three of them and asked, "How much do you think your lives are worth?"
The man looked at Zhou Yunshu in disbelief as she was standing in the car and robbing him openly, and subconsciously covered his wallet.
What's going on? They're clearly not the ones robbing.
"We, our lives, you can go, no money required..." The woman was so scared that she couldn't speak clearly, and just kept pulling the man next to her.
Just when she was about to pick up the firecrackers that brought the news, the leaves in the man's hand almost cut off her fingers.
If she hadn't retrieved it in time, the ones who would have been disabled today wouldn't just be her nephew and the firecracker that was cut in half by the leaves on the ground, but also her.
The man said calmly, "We'll let you go. No money required."
"It seems you didn't understand what I meant." Zhou Yunshu looked at the three of them and said, "I'll count to three. Take out your money to buy your lives. If you can't, I'm sure the people from your village will arrive and be able to collect your bodies."
"us……"
"one."
"What should I do?" The woman grabbed the man's hand and wanted to take the money from his pocket. She didn't want to die!
"two."
"Crack!" Chu San drew his sword, and Yan Shilei and others pointed the tips of the swords at the three men.
"three……"
“We give!”
The man couldn't stand the gazes from the opposite side, so he threw the two purses in his pocket to Yan Shilei who was in the front.
After Yan Shilei took the purse, he looked at Zhou Yunshu behind him.
Zhou Yunshu put away her previous indifference, looked at the two of them with a smile and said, "Okay, thank you for your generosity. See you next time."
After saying that, Zhou Yunshu returned to the carriage and lowered the curtain. Yan Shilei waved his whip, walked around the three men and continued to move forward.
Kang Jingyu glanced at the three people and sighed to the servant beside him, "Do you think he knows that his wife is so... cruel?"
The servant silently glanced at his master who seemed very happy, and said silently: "He should know."
Not only does he know, he might even like Zhou Yunshu's personality.
"Hahaha, I'm going to write this down and tell Xuanjun about it, so he can see how much fun he's missed."
Zhou Yunshu didn't know what Kang Jingyu was planning. After leaving the tea shop, they headed westward. They stopped the carriage by the river when the golden crow set and the sky was about to become dark.
After they had built a fire, caught seven or eight fish, processed them and put them on the fire, the sound of horse hooves came from not far away, and then gradually stopped in front of them.
