Chapter 145 What's Wrong
God knows how surprised the medicine boy was when he saw that scene. He stumbled into the yard and stuttered for a long time before he tremblingly shouted out a complete sentence.
When everyone went out to look for it again, they could only see a cat's head floating on the river from a distance.
It's common to see dogs paddling in the water, but it's a rare sight to see a cat swimming in the river!
The passers-by on the other side, regardless of whether they were busy or not, all stretched their necks to look in curiosity.
Maybe the little orange was shy, so it twisted its butt and swam to an empty corner before it dared to land quietly.
So when Chen Chunxing asked the onlookers, everyone shook their heads.
Who would have thought that it was an unconventional cat?
"Someone saw it climbing up the city wall and heading west!"
"That cat even took away a bunch of salted fish from me!"
"Hey, did it pass over your house too? I was wondering how come I saw a big yellow rat, and then it just scurried off, rolled up my wife's bellyband, and ran away!"
Several people walked along the river bank, asking and searching.
It didn't take long before Chen Chunxing no longer wanted the cat.
It's embarrassing.
She could understand stealing fish, but what was wrong with a bellyband?
In order to buy some clothes for Yang Quezi, Bu Wan also followed him out.
After Dr. Chu's careful treatment, Yang Guizi has passed the critical period. Although he has not yet woken up, his life is saved and his legs are still there. For the two of them, this is the best outcome.
Seeing Chen Chunxing's unhappy expression, Bu Wan covered her mouth and smiled: "Maybe it's spring."
It's time for the little animals to show their enthusiasm.
"..." Chen Chunxing glanced at the side and muttered, "It really needs to be removed."
The men who were accompanying them all took a half step back tacitly.
Even the little medicine boy couldn't help blushing.
If Diao was here, she would definitely slap him and yell "You're asking for death", but unfortunately she was not here, so no one dared to look at Chen Chunxing.
Xue Yongan coughed lightly and changed the subject: "The Taoist priest seems to like duckweed as well."
There were six of us when we went out, but after we passed the bridge, only five were left.
Chen Chunxing was not surprised and snorted, "If he doesn't leave, how can we have a peaceful life?"
No one has come to cause trouble for three days. Only a fool would believe that there is nothing fishy here.
She had discovered earlier that the only cause and effect hanging on the old Taoist was in the direction of Liuren City, and now it was just verifying her guess.
Since that night, Xun Huisheng never appeared on the river bank again.
——
Several people walked towards the west of the city while talking.
As soon as they arrived at the busy street, the little medicine boy pointed at a place and shouted.
"Look! There's a red bellyband on that tree... Ugh, there's a cat!"
It wasn't just him who had sharp eyes. In fact, everyone saw it but they were too embarrassed to say anything.
On the red-lacquered, carved second-floor terrace, several scantily clad women stood. Hearing a voice from below, they teased without a trace of politeness: "Hey, little brother, whose red bellyband do you want? Come up here! We don't have anything else here, but bellybands are plentiful!"
The medicine boy had two buns on his head and was still a child. When he heard the words, he was so scared that he didn't dare to raise his head.
Instead, Chen Chunxing tilted his neck and looked at it for a long time with great interest.
I almost didn't show my hair to anyone.
A woman in a yellow shirt couldn't help but ask, "What are you looking at, sister?"
She replied with a smile: "Of course it depends on which sister's bellyband is redder."
“…”
If this were said by a man, even a handsome young man like Xue Yongan would be labeled a "lecher".
But it was a little girl who opened her mouth.
The girls were immediately amused and waved at her, "Sisters, you'd better come closer and take a look. There are many bellybands in my room, red, pink, and with flowers... As long as it's a style you like, you can definitely find it!"
The men took another step back.
The crazy girl met a group of people who didn't care about food or meat, and the idle people on the roadside who were listening to her interesting stories were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
Chen Chunxing shook his head. "Oh, my sisters are more beautiful than flowers. I can hardly look at them all. I wonder where the clothes you are wearing are made? I want to make one myself. Maybe I can get some of your elegance."
Everyone likes to hear good words.
Although she was talking about clothes, when the woman heard it, it became a bellyband.
The woman in yellow didn't even think twice, "It's at the Liang's clothing store on the corner ahead..."
Before he could finish his words, he was stopped by his companions.
She stopped talking in time, glanced down hesitantly, and said with a smile, "It's just that the owner of that shop is not easy to get along with. He never wants to do business with outsiders. I'm afraid my sister won't be able to get what she wants."
"What a pity."
Chen Chunxing sighed, did not insist anymore, turned around, and headed straight for the street corner.
Liang's City Clothing Store is not big, with only one shop room. There is a half-bloomed lotus carved on the plaque on the door.
It is extremely similar to the patterns revealed on the bellybands of those women just now.
When entering the door.
Bu Wan seemed very hesitant. "Why don't we just forget it? For a family like ours, there's no need to be so particular. I'll wash your brother Yang's clothes when I get home. It's just a matter of him sleeping naked for one night..."
Seeing that she was short of money, Chen Chunxing patted Bu Wan's hand.
"Let's go in and see if they're willing to sell it. We can't be sure yet."
Bu Wan thought about it and realized that those women had obviously thought they were buying small clothes. It was not certain whether there were any clothes that men could wear among them.
I just followed Chen Chunxing's idea.
The owner of the clothing store was a cold-looking woman. When she saw two strangers coming in, she refused to even greet them and tried to drive them away.
"Girl, you must have come to the wrong place. Here..."
Bu Wan breathed a sigh of relief for no apparent reason and said hurriedly, "I told you there's nothing suitable here."
Just at this moment.
When the woman saw Bu Wan's face clearly, she bit her tongue and began to mumble.
"I have everything here, what do you need to see, girl?"
“…”
Looking at the room full of ruqun and embroidered shoes, Chen Chunxing looked like someone who was here to cause trouble.
"Are there any clothes that men can wear?"
Bu Wan quietly pulled her.
Who would have thought that the woman would immediately agree: "Yes."
Then he walked behind the curtain and took out a stack of brocade robes.
