Chapter 442: In the end, I am only worth a candy man!
The little girl nodded: "That's good, it seems that Senior Brother is still a grateful person. As long as he doesn't compete with Bu Bu for his parents, Bu Bu won't put him in a sack."
On the way back, Jin Congcong complained: "Ruo'er, didn't Bubu give me the dragon vein? Why am I so unlucky that I was kidnapped by them?"
Bu Ruo glared at him angrily: "I gave you the dragon vein, so you have to carry it with you. It's useless to leave it there!"
Jin Congcong was startled: "I'm wearing it. I even found a rope and asked Bi'er to weave a small net for me to hang it around my neck. Look..."
"Ah! Ahhh! Where's my dragon vein? Why is it gone? No wonder I'm so unlucky. It turns out that my dragon vein is lost. Woohoo... This is the end. That was the dragon vein that Bubu dug for me."
"Yesterday I was thinking that even if this dragon vein is no longer effective in the future, I will always wear it. It was given to me by Bu Bu."
Bu Ruo kicked him directly: "Shut up! Why are you howling! Did you bring out the dragon vein? You open your mouth and howl!"
"I wore it! I really wore it, I wore it around my neck!"
"You're wearing a piece of shit! The secret guard said you were just too vain to show off. You put the dragon vein on the stone table in the yard while you were changing your robe. Go ahead and put it on, but remember to put it on after you're done."
"Haha, you're so good! You just walked away with the banknotes in your pocket without even looking back. If not you, who else will be unlucky? If not you, who else should be tied up?!"
Jin Congcong: ...
"Didn't I wear it? Fortunately, fortunately, the dragon vein is not lost..."
"But... wuwu, even if the dragon vein is not lost, my silver is lost."
Bu Ruo raised an eyebrow: "Didn't you buy things all day? How could you lose the money?"
Someone said with a sad face: "I spent a day shopping, but everything I bought was lost when I was kidnapped. I spent all my money. I only had ten copper coins left after a day of work."
"I...I...if I had known earlier, I should have saved some money."
Xiao Jin looked at Jin Congcong's half-dead appearance and sighed helplessly: "It's not lost, it was picked up by the secret guards along the way. Only the snacks are gone."
"It's not lost?" Jin Congcong's eyes lit up, "It's good that it's not lost, it's good that it's not lost."
The little girl asked curiously, "Why didn't anyone pick it up? I heard from the secret guard that Senior Brother also bought some jewelry. How could such a precious thing be thrown on the road without anyone picking it up?"
Jin Congcong chuckled and said, "Your senior brother is really smart. When I went to buy jewelry today, I didn't want a box because I was afraid of being targeted by thieves. I asked the shopkeeper to wrap it in straw paper."
"Then I was at a circus, and maybe the shopkeeper hadn't used straw paper to wrap the jewelry, so one of my earrings fell out while I was walking. When I bent down to pick it up, he covered my mouth and kidnapped me."
Little girl: ...
When everyone returned to the inn, Doctor Du was walking back and forth anxiously in Buruo's courtyard. Seeing them coming back, he hurried to greet them.
"How is it? Is anyone injured? Are the two children okay?"
Jin Congcong looked at his master with grievance: "You old man, it was me who was kidnapped. Shouldn't you check if I'm okay first?"
Doctor Du snorted, picked up the sack and started whipping him, using it as a whip, making a whistling sound.
"You'll know that it's better to take silver than dragon veins!"
"I told you to go out and show off and cause trouble for Ruo'er and the prince!"
"I'll beat you to death! I'll save you from worrying about me all day long, afraid that you'll die outside without anyone noticing!"
Little girl: Huh? I didn’t know that sackcloth can be used like this.
Jin Congcong was beaten so hard that he screamed, "What are you doing, old man? You beat me right after I got back. I was kidnapped and was unharmed, but now I'm back, you old man beat me."
"Oh~ Master, I was wrong, isn't that okay? My trip wasn't in vain. Even though the cakes are gone, I still have other things. I bought gifts for each of you."
Doctor Du's anger subsided slightly after hearing this. He sat down on the chair and panted unhappily, "You have a conscience. Now that you have money, you still remember to buy something for Master. It's not in vain that I worried about you."
"You, you are usually silly and stupid. As long as you have this heart, I don't really care whether you buy a gift for me or not."
Xiao Jin asked the secret guard to bring the things Jin Congcong bought today and put them on the table...
"I'm thinking about you all the time. I even used the money I finally managed to spend to buy each of you a gift. It's not expensive, but it's a token of my love, isn't it?"
"Come here, this is Ruo'er's, a pair of earrings. Although they are not as good as the ones you usually wear, they cost me twenty taels."
"This belongs to the prince. It's a sword tassel. Although I've never seen the prince use a sword, he definitely has one. It would be nice to tie it on as a decoration. It cost twenty taels."
"Here, these are the brushes and inkstone I bought for Jin. I saw that Jin often practices calligraphy, so I bought them specially. The shopkeeper said what... what was it? Anyway, it's the best brush and inkstone, and they cost twenty taels in total."
"Bu Bu, come here and see if the hair ornament that Senior Brother bought for you looks good. The shopkeeper said that if you tie this kind of hair ornament on your hair, you won't notice you have less hair. Let Bi'er put it on you tomorrow to see how it looks. If it looks good, I'll buy you another one next time when Senior Brother has money."
Doctor Du looked at the empty table and pointed at himself in disbelief: "Gone? Where's my table? Didn't you say you bought me a gift?"
Jin Congcong pursed his lips: "Prince Ruo'er's family of four has spent eighty taels, where else can I get the money..."
"Don't think I don't know. Ruo'er gave you a total of one hundred taels of silver! You spent eighty taels, don't you still have twenty taels?"
Someone stiffened his neck and said, "So I won't eat or drink? I even had a nice meal, tea, and a play today, and I got tips for that."
"Hey? Hey, hey, hey? Don't move your hands, Master, listen to me carefully. When I came back, I really remembered that I hadn't bought you a gift yet and I wanted to go buy you one. I wanted to go to the south of the city to watch the acrobatics and buy you a candy man. But I was kidnapped, otherwise you would have a candy man..."
"I'll beat you to death, you sugar man!"
Doctor Du waved the sack again and said, "I will take you in as my last disciple and teach you from childhood!"
"Twenty years, twenty years... in the end, I'm only worth a candy figurine! I'll beat you to death!"
Jin Congcong was so scared that he quickly hid behind Bu Ruo: "Then...then I don't have enough silver. I really went to see a medicine furnace for you, but the cheapest good medicine furnace costs five taels of silver. It's really too expensive. I couldn't bear it..."
