Zhan Qingyue's whole body tensed up, her hands raised in a gesture of surrender, her almond-shaped eyes widened, and she stared at the knife on her neck with the corner of her eyes.
"Girl, calm down."
"Stop talking nonsense! Come inside." The woman scolded in a stern voice.
Zhan Qingyue was extremely helpless. She had good intentions and saved people, but she also saved someone from harm.
She rolled her eyes. The hero did not suffer the immediate disadvantage, and he stood up and walked towards the house step by step.
It was getting dark, and brother Zhan saw that Zhan Qingyue had been out for a day. If he returned to the village, he would come and say something to him.
He was restless, fearing that Zhan Qingyue would fall through the trap of the Zhou family.
The more Brother Zhan thought about it, the more panicked he became, so he simply closed the store and went to the county school.
"Second brother, please slow down, hasn't Yueyue gone back yet?"
Han Yiyun frowned. He had been looking at houses all afternoon and it was time to go home.
"Yiyun, let's split up and look for her quickly. If my little sister encounters someone from the Zhou family who has slipped through the net, it will be dangerous."
Han Yiyun nodded solemnly: "When we separated in the afternoon, she said she wanted to see the house that Master Fan had given her. I'll look over there. Second brother, you go to the soap shop and ask my sister-in-law and the others."
Brother Zhang nodded repeatedly and walked towards the soap shop.
Han Yiyun immediately stopped a carriage and drove towards the house.
When he arrived at the house, Han Yiyun saw that the lock on the door was not there. He raised his eyebrows, opened the door and walked in.
"Yueyue, Yueyue! Are you in there?"
Han Yiyun went from yard to yard looking for them.
Zhan Qingyue, who was in the room, had heard his shout a long time ago. Seeing the woman staring at her eagerly, she didn't dare to act rashly for a while.
Listening to Han Yiyun's voice getting closer and closer, Zhan Qingyue took a careful look at the woman and said tentatively: "My family has come to pick me up. Please let me go!"
She was afraid that the woman would take action, so she hurriedly raised her hands and swore: "I swear, I will never tell anyone about you here, otherwise my blood will be splashed on the spot."
The woman's empty eyes finally gained some focus, and she moved to the side expressionlessly, threatening in a low voice: "You'd better do what you said, otherwise, huh!"
Zhan Qingyue took a deep breath and opened the door.
"Brother Han, why are you here?"
She yawned long, stretched, closed the door quietly, and walked towards Han Yiyun.
"Brother Han, I'm sorry. I was so happy when I visited the house today that I swept the cobwebs everywhere. I was so tired that I fell asleep. I didn't go back so late and made you worry."
The corners of Han Yiyun's mouth curled up slightly, and he raised his hand to dust the cobwebs on her head, his eyes full of doting.
"Look at you, it's such a big house, why worry about it for a while, let's go back quickly, the second brother is already worried."
The woman in the room couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief as she listened to them walking away.
On the way back, Han Yiyun held a dim lantern, and Zhan Qingyue shyly took his arm and moved her head closer to his shoulder.
The two of them chatted about the house from time to time, and the atmosphere was extremely ambiguous.
Zhan Qingyue couldn't help but smile as she listened to the report about the high favorability and transformation pills obtained in the space.
A few days later, Zhan Qingyue went to the reward house again and found that the woman in the house had left.
Zhan Qingyue then confidently and boldly began to buy furniture bit by bit, and asked Han Yiyun to choose an auspicious day and officially move in with his family.
The life of Zhanjia is becoming more and more prosperous day by day.
On this day, Zhan Qingyue was preparing medicinal materials in the Medicinal Food Pavilion, when suddenly a middle-aged man with a big belly, a fleshy face, and a double mustache on his upper lip came.
He was dressed in dark red silk and satin, wearing a square scarf on his head, a rectangular piece of Hetian jade inlaid around his neck, and a large jade finger on his hand, showing his wealth everywhere.
The mustachioed man's garlicky nose shrugged, and his grin revealed a row of big yellow teeth.
"Are you Zhan Qingyue?"
The man asked coldly and threw his butt on the square stool in the store: "I am a medicinal material dealer from Fucheng. I heard that you have several medicinal fields on the top of the mountain. Take me to see the medicinal materials I want. But there are a lot of them, maybe I will raise the price for you if I am happy."
Zhan Qingyue grabbed the medicinal materials with an expressionless face, and then sealed the yellow paper packages in front of her. From beginning to end, she didn't even give him a look.
The man became angry, slapped his hand on the table, and glared at Zhan Qingyue fiercely. He had a tall nose and big yellow teeth in his grin, and he breathed out fragrance for a while.
"Zhan Qingyue, are you deaf? I'm talking to you, do you still want to sell your medicinal materials? There are medicinal fields on several hills. Without me to collect them, you still have to smash them in your hands."
"Besides, your Medicinal Food Pavilion also needs medicinal materials. I don't believe that you can grow all the medicinal materials in your medicinal field. If there are medicinal materials that you can use later, I will sell them to you. It's a matter of mutual benefit. You What’s there to worry about?”
Zhan Qingyue finally raised her eyes and looked at him seriously, as if looking at a fool.
"Is this how you come here to buy medicinal materials? I'm sorry, I won't sell my medicinal materials to you! Even if I want to buy medicinal materials, I won't buy yours."
"Second brother! See off guests."
Brother Zhang couldn't bear it anymore, but he didn't take Qingyue's words to make a move.
Now with Zhan Qingyue's consent, he sneered and couldn't wait to walk out of the counter, waving an invitation gesture to the man with the mustache.
"We don't welcome people like you with eyes on the top of your head. Get out of here and don't force me to use violence!"
Brother Zhan shouted loudly, making the man tremble with fright, and walked out of the Medicinal Food Pavilion cursing.
He chattered endlessly with the boy about Zhan Qingyue's arrogance, his face full of unwillingness.
"Sir, didn't the news say that all the medicine fields are in Xincun? There is Changfu Village next to Xincun. Let's start from Changfu Village. Maybe there will be some success."
The boy had a sinister look on his face. He supported the man with the mustache and said flatteringly.
When the man with the mustache heard this, there was calculation in his eyes, his face turned into a chrysanthemum smile, and he slapped the young man on the shoulder.
"Okay, Xiaozhu, you have a bright mind!"
Wang Fugui, the head of Changfu Village, held a heavy amount of ten taels of silver in his hands, grinning from the corners of his mouth to his ears.
He nodded and bowed to the man with the mustache for a while and said, "Shopkeeper Hu, don't worry, I will take care of this matter and I will definitely handle it for you."
After sending away the mustached man, Wang Fugui climbed halfway up the mountain without stopping.
"Brother Zhan, I finally found you. It's a great thing. A medicine dealer from Fucheng just came here and wants to buy medicine from your family."
"What a great thing!" Zhan Dayou's eyes lit up, but soon he suppressed his smile and waved his hand ruthlessly: "Yue has the final say in everything at home, not me."
Zhan Dayou was afraid that his daughter would lose business, so he personally accompanied Wang Fugui to have a cup of tea and asked Fan Yuanxiu from the village to go to the city for a run.
"Huh, I really don't want to give up."
After listening to what Fan Yuanxiu said, Zhan Qingyue's face was full of contempt: "He has such high ambitions that he buys and sells everything by force."
"Yueyue, why don't we try to master the plan!"
