Zhang Yuanwai was already haggling over the price, belittling the child from head to toe.
But Qianyan could sense that Zhang Yuanwai wanted to buy him. Bargaining was just a businessman's nature. If he could lower the price, he would naturally keep it lower.
"Brother." Qian Yan pulled Pei Wenjue next to him. They were selling things not far from the Li family and his wife, so he could always pay attention to the situation there.
Pei Wenjue asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Do you want to play? Wait a little longer. There has been a lot of chaos in the town recently. You are still a child and don't run around. If you encounter a flower girl, you will be in trouble."
"It's not for fun, I want to buy him." Qian Yan pointed at Li Xinghuai and said, forget about calling Li Ergou. The reason why there are memories of Li Xinghuai in his memory is that Pei Wenqing knew Li Xinghuai's parents, Li Dali and Liu Hongmei.
Later, after Li Xinghuai became prosperous, the two couples had some quarrels. Pei Wenqing happened to catch up with the incident, but they only had one quarrel, and then there was no more noise.
Pei Wenjue was stunned, looked up at Li Xinghuai, and lowered his voice: "This kid is very beautiful." After a pause, his voice became even lower, "Are you attracted to him?"
He remembered something. When his father decided to give his younger sister a boy from the Chen family, it turned out that only half a year after his father passed away, both mother and son of the Chen family were gone. In fact, the boy from the Chen family is gentle and handsome, and he is considered to be one of the more handsome among his father's students, but he is still much worse than the boy in front of him.
Qian Yan: "..."
She was already thinking about how to persuade Pei Wenjue to let her buy the person. After all, buying a child these days means buying a mouth. It is difficult to agree to it under normal circumstances.
Why did Pei Wenjue react differently?
"Do you really like her?" Pei Wenjue asked again in a low voice, "She looks very good. If you look closely, you can't find many such outstanding people in the town. I just don't know what my temper is like."
Pei Wenjue thought very far without realizing it.
"Let's go ask." Pei Wenjue picked up the backpack and took Qian Yan to Li Xinghuai's place. Zhang Yuanwai was still bargaining with the Li family and his wife.
Suddenly, he saw Qian Yan and Pei Wenjue walking over, and his eyes lit up when he stared at Qian Yan. Without moving his eyes away, he opened his mouth to say something to Pei Wenjue.
Qian Yan's eyes turned cold, as if something had hit his soul directly.
For a moment, Zhang Yuanwai was in a trance, and then some fear suddenly arose in his heart. He didn't know where this fear came from. He looked around in a panic, his face turned white, and then he quickly left with his robe in hand. The followers around him didn't understand either, so they could only catch up in a hurry.
"Master, master, what's wrong with you?"
Li Dali and Liu Hongmei also panicked and quickly called Zhang Yuanwai, but Zhang Yuanwai ran very fast and disappeared after a while. The two had to beat their chests and stamp their feet on the spot.
"I should have agreed earlier." Li Dali said with some reproach, "It's all your fault for not giving in. Zhang Yuanwai was originally not very satisfied, but now..." At this point, Li Dali remembered what the occasion was and paused. Then he said, "Finally, someone can give Ergou a bite of food, now okay?"
Liu Hongmei had a bad look on her face and wanted to fight back, but Li Dali pulled her hard, and she reacted and immediately cried: "It's not that life is sad now, I thought Zhang Yuanwai is a rich man, how much more can he give?" For a small amount of money, there are so many mouths in the house and we have to eat. If the family was not in difficulty, we would not sell the two dogs."
People around him nodded and shook their heads, understanding that life was difficult now. (End of chapter)
