The woman was awake, her small eyes narrowed to slits, her face covered with a dense layer of pockmarks, and her mouth was crooked.
Upon seeing the crowd, the woman suddenly smirked, revealing a disgusting expression: "Where's the man I found for me?"
Han Datou...who is this woman?
Han Lao Er and Han Lao San: They are sure they didn't change personnel along the way. In order to get the food as soon as possible, they didn't even dare to rest.
Liu the butcher's eyes widened, and when he saw the woman, he almost vomited up everything he had eaten at noon.
Is this the beauty they were talking about? The most beautiful woman in the surrounding area?
It's more like the ugliest.
"Is this the beautiful woman you found for me?"
Butcher Liu clenched his fists, and gripped the broadsword even tighter in his other hand.
"Me... Xue'er? Are you Xue'er?"
Even Han Lao Er, who was quick to react, didn't know what to explain at this point. He tentatively called out.
"Hmm? Uncle, didn't you say you were going to find me a very handsome husband?"
Just as Han Luoxue fell, Butcher Liu suddenly stepped forward and slapped Han Lao Er across the face.
"Ah, it's a misunderstanding, Mr. Liu, she is really beautiful, today it's just..."
Han Datou hurriedly explained, but Liu Tu Fu's anger only intensified after hearing this!
Is it really that pretty? That's all?
Butcher Liu was known for his volatile temper; otherwise, he wouldn't have tortured six women to death. He was also physically strong, having honed his brute strength over years of butchering pigs. Dealing with Han Datou and his two companions would have been a piece of cake for him.
After a barrage of punches and kicks, if it weren't for the neighbors' fear of causing serious injury and their inability to bear it any longer, the Han father and his two sons would probably be meeting their maker today.
The three members of the Han family were quick-witted. As soon as they saw someone trying to break up the fight, they hurriedly ran away. Although they were injured, they ran faster than the other, worried that they would be caught if they left too late.
And what about Han Luoxue?
When she saw Liu the butcher make his move, she quietly retreated, trying to make herself less noticeable.
As for her bound hands and feet, she had already cut them off herself; there was a sickle in her spatial storage.
The indifferent Han family father and sons were beaten, and Han Luoxue cursed inwardly that they deserved it.
The Han family used to look down on the third branch of the family as a burden, but what about the Han family now?
The most troublesome old lady, Han, twisted her back, and the most heartless old man, Han Laosi, pinched his foot.
These three get beaten up again...
Thinking of the miserable state of the Han family, Han Luoxue laughed rather unkindly.
However, being carried along the way was really not a pleasant experience.
Fortunately, she drank more spiritual spring water, which made her feel a little better.
Her makeup looks great now; even her parents probably wouldn't recognize her.
She never expected that the smart space would have a function to make her look ugly.
However, this feature has a rather long cooldown period.
Fortunately, the grains in her space had matured ahead of schedule.
She examined the quality of the millet; it was excellent.
Han Luoxue didn't delay and planted another crop using high-quality seeds.
This time she harvested fifteen catties of millet. She also collected some vegetables over the past two days; having come all this way to town, she decided to replace them all.
Where can you exchange good things? Naturally, you can go to the richest family in town.
"Hey, have you heard? Young Master Liu has started a hunger strike again."
Han Luoxue was just about to ask someone about finding a potential client when she suddenly heard someone threatening to go on a hunger strike. She couldn't help but prick up her ears to listen carefully.
"Doesn't he threaten to go on hunger strikes every few days?"
"Sigh, other people are so lucky. Unlike us, we can't even get a full meal."
Han Luoxue was getting anxious. She had only been to town a few times before and knew nothing about the local gossip. And these people gossiping weren't getting to the point at all.
Left with no other option, she went over and tugged at someone's sleeve, asking curiously:
"Brother, what's this about the young master Liu you're talking about?"
When everyone saw someone asking the question, they all turned to look!
Upon seeing Han Luoxue's appearance, everyone nearly vomited.
Where did this ugly monster come from?
"Stay away from us."
Han Luoxue felt ashamed. Was she really that ugly? But she still obediently stopped and took two steps back to keep her distance from the crowd. Those who had been talking earlier, afraid she would get too close, each took turns telling the whole story about Master Liu's family.
Half an hour later, an extremely ugly woman arrived at Master Liu's door.
"Go away, little beggar, where did you come from? Our manor has nothing to give you."
Han~Beggar~Luoxue: She was dressed normally, just like an ordinary person wearing patched clothes, which were washed clean. How did she become a beggar?
However, don't worry about these details. Han Luoxue cleared her throat, cupped her hands in a respectful bow to the gatekeeper, and said politely:
"Young man, I have some good stuff here. I'd like to ask if your esteemed residence accepts it?"
The servant looked at Han Luoxue suspiciously, his doubtful expression practically unmistakable.
Han Luoxue knew she had little credibility, so she simply took out a bunch of water celery from her basket.
Lush and verdant, its vibrant green color is breathtaking.
The servant stared in shock. As for vegetables, the family had eaten them before; they weren't exactly rare.
But that was in the past. The famine had lasted for almost three years. Where could we find vegetables of such good quality?
Seeing his wide-eyed expression, Han Luoxue chuckled inwardly. Who would have thought that such an ordinary wild vegetable would have such appeal during times of famine in ancient times?
"So, does your esteemed household need it?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
The servant was so excited he stammered. His young master was on a hunger strike again; if there were such good vegetables, maybe he would...
Wouldn't that mean he had accomplished a great feat? The servant seemed to see countless grains beckoning to him, and his feet moved with incredible speed.
He took Han Luoxue directly to the steward of the manor.
The person in charge was a middle-aged man, who was also shocked to see the water celery.
However, he reacted quickly and soon regained his composure, though his voice was still trembling slightly:
"Miss, may I take a look?"
Han Luoxue generously handed him the water celery. The steward brought it to his nose to smell it, then picked a leaf, tasted it, and exclaimed in admiration:
"Very good, very good. May I ask how much these vegetables cost, young lady?"
Since the price had been mentioned, Han Luoxue didn't stand on ceremony. She took out some more from her basket, which weighed about three or four pounds.
"Forty catties of grain."
This is a year of famine, and food is even more precious. The foreman hesitated for a moment. Exchanging vegetables for silver would be fine, but exchanging them for food...
They didn't have much food left in their household, and they didn't know how long the famine would last. He was reluctant to part with it, but looking at the vegetables, he was unwilling to give them up.
"Young lady, this..."
"Shopkeeper, I'm sure there are quite a few mansions in town with grain. Do you think they'd like some of these vegetables?"
The manager's lips twitched. Although this girl was ugly, she was very quick-witted; she was thinking too fast.
