Chapter 11 Buying Pears
As soon as Zhang Yatou returned to his brothers, he gave Waizui a look, and Waizui nodded knowingly.
The eldest brother finally confessed. He had wanted to take action for a long time. Seeing that little beauty in front of him all day long made him feel uncomfortable.
Qin Chuchu did not notice the little movements of Zhang Yatou and Waizui, nor did she care about the harsh words he said before leaving. After all, she had never made anyone proud of her.
As soon as he bandaged the War God's feet, he set off with the team.
Although it was past noon, the weather was still very hot. Even Qin Chuchu, who was holding an umbrella, felt stuffy.
Fortunately, she took ice cubes from the space and put them in her mouth to cool down from time to time, but she still felt very hot.
The most comfortable one was the God of War. He lay on the suitcase without having to walk, and from time to time, an ice cube was stuffed into his mouth. It was cool and very comfortable.
Hearing the crunching sound of the food in the God of War's mouth, the people walking in front looked back from time to time. They didn't know what the little beast was eating, but the sound sounded quite crisp.
Seeing that everyone looked back from time to time, Qin Chuchu pinched the mouth of the God of War and signaled it not to make too much noise.
The God of War was also very cooperative, holding the ice in his mouth without moving his mouth.
After walking for a while, everyone's heads and faces were red and swollen from the heat. Just when everyone was hot and thirsty, an old voice came from the front.
"Selling pears! Big, sweet and crispy pears!!!"
Qin Chuchu stretched her neck to look forward, but before she could see what was going on, the people in front of her surrounded her.
The one standing in the front was Waizui. He took a pear from the old man's basket, rubbed it on his body, and started eating it without asking the price.
Not only that, he reached into the basket, took two more, and turned away.
"you!!!"
The old man with wrinkles on his face wanted to call him, but when he saw his fierce look, he didn't dare to open his mouth.
Last time I was beaten because I asked for money for pears. In the end, I didn’t get the money back and even had to pay ten copper coins for medicine. So this time I decided to give up.
Zhao Yatou glanced at Waizui with dissatisfaction, then looked at the pears in the old man's basket.
"How much are these pears?"
Looking at the square-faced man in front of him, the old man unexpectedly stretched out a finger.
"Two for a penny!"
Seeing that they were together, I thought he wouldn't give any money either!
Zhao Yatou reached into his arms and took out 20 copper coins.
"Give me 40!"
After saying that, he turned around and looked at the brothers behind him.
"Take two each!"
The sword-wielding guards behind him came up and each took two pears from the basket. They took a bite and the juice splashed everywhere, which really quenched their thirst.
Zhang Yatou glanced at Zhao Yatou, then looked at Waizui with dissatisfaction.
Then he took out 20 copper coins from his pocket and threw them over.
"Give me 40 too!"
It was like he couldn't afford the money, but this was the first time he paid for fruit.
Feng Qi also bought ten and took them back. After the group of men in front of him had left, Liu Qing squeezed forward and saw that there were still a dozen or so pears left in the basket. She glanced at Qin Chuchu behind her and rolled her eyes.
"I want all these pears!"
She took out a handful of copper coins and threw them over.
"Oh, good!" The old man was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.
I'm so lucky today. I sold out two baskets of pears before I even went to the market.
When Qin Chuchu arrived, there was not even a pear core in the basket.
Damn it! I was too slow!
Although there was no shortage of delicious food in her space, she also wanted to taste the pear.
Just as he was about to drag the box back, he saw the old man counting the copper coins in his hand with a frown on his brow.
Suddenly I became interested.
"Uncle, the pears have been sold, why are you still not happy?"
The old man counted half of the copper coins, looked up at Qin Chuchu, and sighed.
"Alas! Including this time, I've only saved a little over 300 copper coins. The doctor said my wife's illness will cost at least two taels of silver. I wonder if she can survive until I save enough silver!"
The more the old man spoke, the more worried he looked. He had been trying very hard to save money, but there was really nothing he could sell at home.
“…” Qin Chuchu looked at him without saying anything.
After a brief hesitation, he took out a small silver ingot of ten taels from his arms.
"Take this back and take it to Auntie for treatment!"
Looking at the silver ingot in front of him, the old man's eyes flashed with surprise.
"No, no! How can I take your money?"
Although he really needed the silver, it was really unacceptable to ask for other people's money for no reason.
Looking at the simple old man in front of her, Qin Chuchu looked at an exquisitely woven basket on his shoulder pole.
"Why not consider it as the money I paid for this basket!"
As she spoke, she took the basket down. It looked beautiful before, and it was even more exquisite when she looked at it carefully. If it were in her previous life, it would definitely be considered a work of art.
"That won't cost that much silver!"
The old man continued to refuse, saying that the basket could only be sold for a few cents at most, so there was no way he could accept ten taels of silver.
"You don't want to take care of your spouse anymore?"
After hearing what Qin Chuchu said, the old man's hand froze in mid-air, and he was obviously struggling.
"Take it!"
She forced the silver into his hand. Looking at the heavy silver in his hand, the old man seemed a little excited.
This girl is pretty, but I didn’t expect she is so kind-hearted too. Tears welled up in her cloudy old eyes.
The people around were eating the big pears in their hands while stealing glances at this side from time to time, especially Zhang Yatou.
Seeing Qin Chuchu spend ten taels of silver at once, he was so jealous.
Han Muchen also looked at her for the first time.
Although Qin Chuchu didn't buy any pears, she did gain something. Not only did she buy an exquisitely woven basket, but the old man also kindly helped her fix the basket on her suitcase.
The God of War lay on it, wagging his tail happily. It was obvious that he was very satisfied with his new bed.
Qin Chuchu was also very happy. Since she had this basket, she could pull the box at an angle.
The little guy can still lie down in it steadily and will not slip out.
As they walked, everyone ate the pears in their hands. Maybe it was a psychological effect, but they felt that the weather was not that hot anymore.
Qin Chuchu's mouth was not idle either. Although she didn't buy any pears, she had a lot of fruits in her space.
Liu Qing, who was sitting in the carriage, looked at Qin Chuchu eating different kinds of food and was so angry that her eyes almost popped out.
I thought if I bought all the remaining pears, that dead woman would have nothing to eat, and she would only be able to watch everyone eat.
I didn't expect that she had so much food in her bag and she hasn't stopped eating yet.
Qin Chuchu had long noticed that Liu Qing was staring at her with a bad look, but there was nothing she could do about it, since she had everything in her space.
But having said that, it is indeed time to think of a way to hide this from the public.
After all, I have taken things out of the bag quite a lot in the past two days. It’s okay for a short time, but if it lasts for a long time, I will definitely be suspected.
As she walked, she was thinking of a solution. When she was lost in thought, suddenly, a piercing roar came from the front.
"It really is you! Now I can avenge my sister!!!"
