Chapter 409: Eighty Bride Gifts
Aunt Jiu’s thatched cottage.
Shin Xuefu comes over to say goodbye.
Auntie Jiu took out all her precious Gu, one small porcelain bottle after another.
There are puppet Gu, truth Gu, stiff limbs Gu, and of course the most famous infatuation Gu.
She explained the usage of each Gu in a hoarse voice.
I remember the first time I met Auntie Jiu, she was an old woman who looked dark and weird, didn't speak, and could only look at people with her weird eyes.
Others thought she was an old woman.
Now, he has become an elder who nags endlessly.
Ju Miao and the others were all afraid of the Gu, but they also carefully kept it as a treasure.
This Gu is something that outsiders cannot obtain even if they want to!
The owner asked several times before she accepted two. She didn't expect Aunt Jiu to be so generous to the young lady.
"Aunt Jiu, do you want to go to Luo Ling with us?" Xin Xuefu couldn't help but ask.
Aunt Jiu is so lonely here alone.
"What nonsense are you talking about, kid? I'm a grass ghost woman. I can only stay in Southern Xinjiang. If I go anywhere else, people will think I'm a monster."
"No. Crescent Moon Villa is quite famous in the martial arts world now. No one dares to do anything to you..."
"Okay, I'm sorry for talking too much. You should leave now."
Aunt Jiu's voice turned cold and she turned back to the hut.
Xin Xuefu stood outside for a while longer.
Then he called out, "Auntie Nine, when the world is unified and the north and south are connected, I will definitely come to see you again."
The world is unified, and the north and the south are connected.
Although Aunt Jiu is almost isolated from the world, she also knows what Xinyuerong is doing now, as well as the identities of Yan Meng and Huo Changan.
"Xiao Fu——"
Auntie Jiu thought of something and ran to the door and shouted at Xin Xuefu's back, "Meiyao's mother is very good at witchcraft. She can silently poison people within a hundred meters. I gave you some medicine powder, so remember to wear it on your body!"
Also, if you need me, feel free to message me!"
"I understand, Auntie Jiu." Xin Xuefu responded.
"Miss, Aunt Jiu is so good to you." Fengwei sighed.
"She treats me as her daughter."
Her mother told her that after Auntie Jiu's daughter was murdered, Auntie Jiu brutally killed her ex-husband and that woman, which aroused anger and fear among the villagers.
In addition, the Grass Witch is already feared and hated by people.
So the villagers worked together to light a fire at night.
At that time, Auntie Jiu's master lost the battle with other grass ghost ladies, and they were recuperating because of the fire, and all the poisonous insects they raised were out of control.
In order to help Aunt Jiu escape safely, the master rolled into the Gu-feeding pool and was eaten to death by thousands of Gu.
Aunt Jiu was also severely burned and jumped into the river to escape.
It was at this time that she was rescued by her mother.
The mother needs the grass ghost woman to make a poison to find her daughter, and the ninth aunt wants to avenge her master, so the two help each other.
In the end, they became friends because of similar experiences.
At that time, my mother said that if she found her daughter one day, she would be their daughter together.
So when Auntie Ninth went to Crescent Moon Villa, Mother asked her to serve her personally.
At the beginning, Aunt Jiu was actually very indifferent to her.
Later, perhaps because her temperament suited Aunt Jiu's taste, she really treated her as a junior.
"I will really come back." Xin Xuefu said silently in her heart.
In fact, although southern Xinjiang is barren, it has beautiful mountains and rivers, and is rich in walnuts, silk, and medicinal herbs. It is really not that bad.
If the world were peaceful, the roads were safe, and there was more trade with the North, things would definitely not be like this now.
By then, Xinyue Villa would have opened a trade route to this side, and she could come to see Aunt Jiu at any time, or even stay for a while.
Xin Xuefu's figure became farther and farther away until she could no longer be seen.
Aunt Jiu was still standing at the door, refusing to go back into the gloomy house.
"Xiao Fu, there are too few good men in this world."
"Don't think he's being sincere to you now. One day when he gets tired of you, he might become ruthless and heartless!"
"So, Auntie Nine lied to you. The centipede poison didn't turn into blood or water, but remained dormant in his body."
“However, as long as he doesn’t change his mind, it’s a dead object.
If he betrays you, Auntie Nine will activate the poison and make him die from rotting all over his body!"
Aunt Jiu’s eyes were eerie and terrifying.
Miao women may not be as well-behaved as Han women, but once they decide on a man, they will be loyal to him and will show no mercy if that man betrays them.
Xiao Fu is such a well-behaved and gentle girl, she won't let anyone bully her!
…
Xin Xuefu and the others were going through the mountains and forests and heading towards Bashu.
After walking for a while, they stopped and waited for Yan Meng.
She brought eight people in total, and Yan Meng left four for him.
At this moment, the four brothers began to chop down trees.
"What are you cutting down trees for?" Ju Miao asked.
"Let's cut down a tree and make a sedan chair so we can carry my sister-in-law away." Brother A grinned.
Ju Miao's temper was ignited again: "Who is your sister-in-law? What are you yelling about!"
She listened to the young lady and showed some respect to these soldiers, but listen, what bullshit is this!
Not married yet!
Do you want to damage the lady's reputation?
"Miss Ju Miao, we will call you the General's wife in front of others, and call you Brother Meng and Sister-in-law Meng behind their backs." Brother B hurriedly explained.
"You can't even call me Madam General!"
The brothers were unhappy.
"Miss Ju Miao, this is what Meng Ge instructed. After returning from Southern Xinjiang, Meng Ge will go to Xinyue Villa to propose marriage."
Xin Xuefu’s eyes flashed, and she gently stopped him: “Don’t shout like that for now, we’ll talk about it later.
I will tell Brother Meng."
She knew that those who came to Southern Xinjiang this time were all brothers who had followed Yan Meng for many years and had a very strong friendship with him, so he asked them to call him that.
"Okay, sister-in-law...well, Miss." The brothers grinned and obeyed.
Brother Meng also said that we should listen to our sister-in-law!
"Don't make the sedan chair either. I'm not tired."
Xin Xuefu's tone was gentle but tolerant of objections.
There is nothing we can do, brothers.
Ju Miao snorted at them complacently.
They waited here for a short time before Yan Meng came back with ten people.
Everyone carried a bunch of high-quality weapons on their backs.
When a soldier sees a weapon, it's like a man seeing a beautiful woman, he can't even tear his eyes away.
The four brothers who were guarding there shouted "Wow" and rushed forward to grab the things.
Yan Meng was not carrying any weapons, but was carrying a large bag that looked very heavy.
He suddenly threw it in front of Xin Xuefu.
"Fu'er, take these back first. I'll send a message to Mother and have her send eighty loads of betrothal gifts to Xinyue Villa. If there's anything else you'd like, tell me and I'll find it."
Xin Xuefu stared at the bundle in a daze.
Ju Miao has already opened it.
For a moment, I was almost blinded.
Crescent Villa is not an ordinary family. They have accumulated many good things over the years.
But, the night pearls as big as fists, the oriental pearls as big as longans, the jades, the rubies, all of which are priceless treasures... are piled up like mountains.
Only a royal palace could be this luxurious!
"Miss?" Ju Miao's voice trembled, and she didn't dare to make a decision.
"Where... did this come from?" Xin Xuefu was also trembling with fear.
"That old bastard found it in Hongkang's secret room..."
Yan Meng wanted to tell everyone that Hongkang used dishonest means to make money, but he didn't say it.
What if Fuer doesn’t want these things anymore?
He reminded the eight maids: "Hurry up and divide it up, tie it up on your body, and take it back to Xinyue Villa. This will be my tribute to my new aunt!"
