Chapter 336 Selling Tiger Bones
The man took the copper coins from the woman's hand and said with a fake smile, "Women's words are useless. We are all from the same village. It hurts our feelings to mention money. Brother, do you think I am right?"
Judging from his expression, he has made up his mind to take it for free.
And he seemed to be determined to win.
Upon hearing this, Song Yanxi couldn't help but look up at him.
She wanted to see who was so shameless.
It's broad daylight, and this guy just opens his mouth without thinking. Why doesn't he just rob him?
The man happened to look at her, with a glint of surprise in his eyes. He smiled very greasyly and said, "Brother, you are so lucky to have such a beautiful woman."
Hearing her husband praising another woman's wife, the woman's face darkened. She pinched his waist hard and whispered, "If you look at me again, I'll dig out your eyes."
"Hiss, you shrew!"
The two of them exchanged a few low words again. Song Yanxi didn't hear what they said exactly, but from their angry reactions, it was not difficult to tell that the couple had an argument.
Regardless of the reason, Song Yanxi is happy with the current result.
She didn't like the look in the eyes of these two people, and could even be said to hate it.
Being despised by her husband was already unpleasant, and when she caught a glimpse of her smiling eyes, the woman immediately got angry.
She gritted her teeth and cursed angrily, "She looks like a vixen, and at first glance, she's a restless slut..."
The rest of his words were cut off by Mo Jinchuan's suddenly cold expression.
Her face turned pale, and she subconsciously hid behind her man, whispering, "His father, what are you looking at me with?"
Hearing this, the man not only did not speak out to defend her, but instead said angrily: "You deserve it. Who told you to be so mean and talk about other people's wives?"
Although he said this, the look he gave Mo Jinchuan was clearly filled with fear.
His intuition told him that the man in front of him was not someone to be trifled with.
The murderous aura that permeated his body reminded him of the group of soldiers who had come to the village to arrest people before.
He was a man who would kill people at any time and without blinking an eye.
Realizing this, the man suddenly felt as if the wooden board under his butt had thorns on it, pricking him and making him want to jump up.
Thinking of the defeat at the border a few days ago, the man felt his legs go weak and he shouted, "Stop, stop, stop! We need to get down!"
"What?" The old man driving the ox cart in front glanced back and said, "It'll take a while to get to town."
The man said, "Let's walk there."
The woman was already angry, and when she heard this, she immediately became unhappy. She said with a dark face: "If you want to get off the car, you do it. I'm not getting off anyway."
It will take at least an hour to walk from here to town. She has already paid all her coins. Now you want her to get off the car but she walks on her legs. Do you think she is stupid?
The man pulled her and said unhappily, "Come down with me."
"I'm not going."
The woman frowned, glanced up and down at Song Yanxi, and said sarcastically, "It's not like they rented the car. We all got married, so why should I give the car to them and let them go and walk on their own?"
She glared at her husband and said, "Guo Dafu, are you mentally ill?"
The woman still felt unsatisfied and pointed at his head, saying, "I don't know why I was so blind back then to marry someone like you..."
Guo Dafu slapped her in the face, interrupting her from saying the rest of her words.
He said viciously, "You stinky bitch, I'm asking you again, are you getting out of the car?"
I don't know when the ox cart stopped.
The woman covered half of her face with her hands, glared at Song Yanxi with resentment, and jumped out of the car without hesitation.
The man followed closely behind her. When he was about to kick her again in anger, he suddenly heard Mo Jinchuan, who was sitting on the ox cart, ask, "Don't you want the tiger bones anymore?"
Hearing this, the man froze, and without even turning his head, he pulled the woman forward quickly.
When the ox cart passed by the couple, Song Yanxi caught a glimpse of the man's tense shoulders suddenly relaxing, as if he was relieved.
After walking for a while, the old man driving the cart said, "My dear brother, don't listen to the nonsense that couple said. Tiger bones are a precious treasure that cannot be bought even with money.
When you get to town, don't rush to the restaurant. Find a clinic or something to remove the tiger bones and sell them. If you're lucky enough to meet someone who knows the value of the bones, you can get more money."
The old man stretched out his hand and said mysteriously, "It can't be sold below this price."
Knowing that he meant well, Mo Jinchuan explained, "I have an elderly person at home, and I plan to take it home to make wine. I don't plan to sell it."
"He's a filial child."
The old man thought for a moment and then said, "I'll take you to the butcher's shop later. You can buy three ounces of meat and see if he has time to help you skin the beast."
Afraid they might misunderstand, he explained, "This thing is full of treasures. Besides the tiger bones, the most valuable part is the skin. The more intact it is, the more valuable it is. If someone uninformed damages the skin, it will be a waste."
Mo Jinchuan: "Thank you very much, old man."
The old man waved his hand and said, "We are all from the same village, why should we be polite?"
For the rest of the journey, he didn't take the initiative to talk to them. He sent the two of them to a familiar butcher shop, said a few good words for them, and then left.
When the butcher saw such a huge tiger, his eyes seemed to shine.
He rubbed his hands and said, “To be honest, little brother, I have slaughtered pigs and sheep for so many years, and even skinned a few wolves, but this is the first time I have seen such a big guy with my own eyes.
If you trust me, I won't say anything else. If you and your sister-in-law like any of the meat on the stall, feel free to take it."
After saying this, perhaps feeling that he had acted too exaggerated, he scratched his head and looked at Mo Jinchuan and said, "Brother, we are both men. You should understand what brother means, right?"
If this thing succeeds today, his title of the best swordsman in Qinghua Town will be well-deserved.
From now on, when they were drinking and bragging, he could make them shut up by saying that he had killed the Tiger King.
Just thinking about it made his blood boil.
Mo Jinchuan nodded and said, "Thank you for your help."
The butcher waved his hand and turned around impatiently to get his own food. Without even looking up, he said, "You can take whatever meat is on the counter. Take whatever you want."
It is obvious from their straightforward attitude that they are not married yet. If one person is full, the whole family will not be hungry.
Someone happened to come over to buy some meat, but before he could even ask, he heard him say, "I have guests at home today, so I won't sell any."
"What? My family has already prepared the noodles and is just waiting for the meat to make dumplings at home."
The butcher was about to speak when he heard Mo Jinchuan say, "Sell it, why not?"
The aunt who came to buy meat immediately smiled brightly, moved the meat hanging on the rack with her hand, pointed to one of the parts and said, "Here, just three or two will do."
Mo Jinchuan walked forward, picked up the machete with familiar movements, and asked, "Do you want bones?"
The butcher's voice rang out from behind him: "Fat is 15 cents, lean meat is 13 cents, and bones are one cent cheaper.
Bones are three cents each, but the meat is free."
When the old lady heard this, she hurriedly said, "Yes, my grandson loves to chew bones. So please send me a bone later so that I can make soup for my daughter-in-law when I get home."
As she spoke, she kept looking at Mo Jinchuan and asked with a smile, "You look unfamiliar, little brother. Are you from another place?"
