Yun Xiaoxiao's eyes remained fixed on the refined man.
Sometimes I want to buy a little, sometimes I want to buy a lot.
Its eyes were darting around; it was clearly not a good person.
Yun Xiaoxiao was too lazy to waste words with him.
Without anyone noticing, a dagger appeared in his hand.
He pulled out a palm-sized piece of dried meat from the bag Yuan Shitou had picked out and said:
"Uncle, are you really going to do this?"
If you want it, we'll give you a discount.
Don't lie to us if you don't want it.
We're from the mountains, and we hate being lied to.
The refined-looking man's eyes narrowed slightly when he saw the dagger in her hand.
He gave an awkward laugh: "Little girl, don't misunderstand."
I really want to buy some to take home and eat.
Yun Xiaoxiao didn't appreciate his kindness: "One minute you say you'll buy a little, the next you say you'll buy a lot."
Your master's family is sending someone away.
Now you're saying you'll buy some to take home and eat. Are you going to buy it or not?
"Don't waste our time if you're not going to buy."
The refined-looking man gave an awkward smile: "Since you're in such a hurry, then I won't buy it."
You should go sell it at the next store.
After saying that, he left as if fleeing.
Yun Xiaoxiao snorted coldly, put the jerky into the bag, and said to the others, "Let's go."
Yuan Min was a little confused: "Xiao Xiao, wasn't that person just now trying to buy our dried goods?"
Why did you leave again?
Yun Xiaoxiao said with a disdainful look: "Hmph, that person is a liar."
He doesn't want to buy our products; he wants to scam us out of them.
"Ah, this person looks so refined, how could he possibly do such a thing?"
Yuan Min said with a look of disbelief.
Yun Xiaoxiao curled her lip: "Haven't you ever heard of the term 'refined scoundrel'?"
Yuan Min honestly shook her head; she had indeed never heard of it.
The village chief's son, Amu, asked, "Xiaoxiao, how did you figure out he was trying to lie to us?"
Didn't you notice his eyes just now?
Furthermore, what he said was incoherent and illogical; it was clearly not true.
Yun Xiaoxiao explained to them.
Yuan Min thought for a moment: "It seems to be true."
Then, she said angrily, "How could this person be so wicked?"
They're not nearly as genuine as us mountain folk."
No one seemed to agree or disagree, and they continued walking down the alley.
Fan Tiesheng asked Fan Tieniu beside him, "The old man and woman just said that after going through this alley, you have to turn left, right?"
He was afraid of taking the wrong turn and not being able to find the place to buy mountain goods.
Fan Tieniu nodded firmly; he had a good memory.
That's exactly what the old man and woman said.
Just as she turned left out of the alley, a figure walked by quickly, almost bumping into Yun Xiaoxiao in front of her.
The man turned around, helped her up, said sorry, and then turned and left.
Yun Xiaoxiao was stunned when she saw the person's face.
He then chased after them.
Seeing this, Yuan Shitou quickly followed, fearing that something might happen to Xiaoxiao.
Of course, the people behind also have to follow.
Yun Xiaoxiao chased after the man into the alley.
Suddenly a dagger was placed against her neck.
Because the dagger was too close, she didn't dare to make any rash moves.
Just quietly looking at the face in front of me.
Tears welled up in her eyes: "Brother Zihao, it's me, it's Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao."
The man looked at Yun Xiaoxiao's face with suspicion, then exclaimed in surprise, "Xiaoxiao, are you really Xiaoxiao? Yun Xiaoxiao?"
Yun Xiaoxiao nodded: "Brother Zihao, you recognized me, didn't you?"
"Xiaoxiao, where have you been all this time?"
Your brother is frantically looking for you.
Then, as if remembering something, he asked, "How did you get here?"
What are you doing here?
He glanced at Yuan Shitou, who was standing there stunned, and then put away his dagger.
"You're all together. Who is he?" I asked, my eyes wary.
Yun Xiaoxiao briefly recounted what had happened.
Yun Zihao angrily cursed, "These damned human traffickers should be dragged out and shot."
Yun Xiaoxiao asked tearfully, "Brother Zihao, how is my brother? Is he doing well?"
Seeing the worry in her eyes, Yun Zihao patted her head:
Don't worry, your brother is doing well.
That family treated him very well, and they've been asking around about you.
Yun Xiaoxiao cried uncontrollably: "I was thinking that I would go to find my brother when I had money."
But I've forgotten where my home is.
Yun Zihao looked pitiful: "Little girl, you've really suffered."
Don't worry, your brother is fine. There's nothing to worry about.
Yun Xiaoxiao wiped away her tears: "Brother Zihao, tell me, where do we live?"
A hint of sadness appeared on Yun Zihao's face.
"Don't bother looking for him, I don't know where your brother is either."
Yun Xiaoxiao immediately became anxious upon hearing this: "How could you not know?"
Has something happened to my brother?
Yun Zihao quickly reassured him, "No, isn't there a war? Our village has also suffered."
Many people have gone into hiding, and I don't know where they've moved to.
However, I still described the former town and village.
Yun Xiaoxiao felt like she was about to collapse: "Then where am I supposed to find my brother?"
"Will I never find him in this lifetime?"
If I can't find him in this lifetime, how can I complete the mission?
Does she have to live the same life again in her next life?
Yun Zihao comforted him, "Don't worry, it won't happen."
Once things have settled down, you can go back and look for it.
I think your brother and the others will definitely go back.
"Then once I've made some money, I'll go back to them."
"No," Yun Zihao quickly stopped him, "Let's go look for it again in two years."
Why wait two years?
Yun Xiaoxiao was somewhat puzzled.
"These past two years have been a bit turbulent, so you should focus on making the most of your life first."
There will be plenty of time later.
Yun Xiaoxiao nodded, then asked curiously, "Brother Zihao, what are you doing here?"
They seem to be in a hurry; have they run into some trouble?
Yun Zihao laughed and said, "Yes, we've run into trouble."
Yun Xiaoxiao asked anxiously, "What trouble have you encountered? Can you tell me? Maybe I can think of a solution."
Yun Zihao didn't answer her question. Looking at the few more people who had appeared, he asked:
"You were together?"
Yun Xiaoxiao nodded: "We prepared a lot of dried goods on the mountain and specially picked them to sell down the mountain."
Thinking about how some families would start buying New Year's goods in the twelfth lunar month, hoping to get a good price for their produce.
Yun Zihao nodded: "Have you found a place to sell it?"
Yun Xiaoxiao shook her head: "I just heard that there's a shop over there that specializes in buying dried goods. We'd like to go check it out."
Yun Zihao hesitated for a moment and then said, "Come with me."
He then reached for the things on Yun Xiaoxiao's back.
Yun Xiaoxiao stepped forward and said, "Brother Zihao, I'm strong, these aren't heavy for me."
Yun Zihao didn't insist, nodded, and walked ahead.
Yun Xiaoxiao told Yuan Shitou and the others to follow.
The group then followed Yun Zihao.
Yuan Shitou also figured out a bit of the trick.
This person is an older brother from Xiaoxiao's hometown.
If we meet here, will they take Xiaoxiao away?
He was really worried. What would he do if Xiaoxiao left with him?
