Chapter 127 Why Are You on Guard Against Me?
Although the township lord is not as noble as the county lord and the princess, it is still a position with a certain rank recorded in the court.
Master Quan looked at the soldiers in silver armor and brown horses from the corner of his eye. They were all mighty and powerful, and they did not look away.
And the gold, silver and jewelry in the reward were worth a hundred taels at random.
He was even more certain that the candy from Xiangyun Village could not be returned!
For a small business like him, if he could establish a good relationship with a township lord and brag about it in the future, it would be a glory that would make his ancestors' graves smoke.
Moreover, as long as the township lord did not do anything wrong, he would soon become a county lord and then a princess...
Master Quan thought so and almost knelt down to Shen Ningning.
The little guy shook his head, his tone firm: "When I walked to the entrance of the village just now, you clearly said that our village deceived you into paying the silver."
"If we don't return the money today, others will say that we are taking advantage of our power to make money."
The old village chief nodded: "Refund, we must return!"
Mr. Quan was sweating profusely: "Village master, the common people have been deceived, so they have misunderstandings about you."
Shen Ningning curved her eyes and laughed: "Why are you always deceived? In this case, I have to return the money."
Sister-in-law Liu added: "That's right, we can't do business with fools."
The old village chief stuffed the silver directly into Mr. Quan's palm.
It was like throwing a hot potato, and he threw it to him all at once.
Mr. Quan complained: "I..."
Shen Ningning didn't intend to listen to his quibbling anymore, and interrupted directly: "Brother Jiang, you carry these boxes into my village house."
The villagers surrounded Shen Ningning, talking and laughing as she walked towards the village.
Master Quan called out "Village Master" several times in a row, but no one paid any attention to him.
In the end, he could only grab the silver and leave in anger.
That damn Badeshun, not only did he do good things, but also harmed him miserably!
After Master Quan left, Shen Ningning and the villagers looked out from behind the door to the entrance of the village.
"He's gone?"
Jiang Zhi went out to confirm and nodded: "Finally gone!"
The old village chief breathed a sigh of relief, holding Shen Ningning's little hand, his gratitude overflowing with words.
"Ningning, thanks to you this time, if it weren't for you, Master Quan would have ridiculed us."
"Yes," Aunt Liu was indignant: "Without him, wouldn't it be bullying our village people for being poor? It will be impossible for him to buy again in the future!"
The old village chief took out a bag of silver.
"Ningning, here are twenty taels. You helped us pay him back fifty taels. As for the rest, if you let us have a few more days, we will definitely pay you back."
The little guy blinked: "Pay back? That's not necessary, Grandpa Village Chief, I want something else."
The old village chief hurriedly asked: "What is it?"
"That bag of loquat candy, Master Quan doesn't want it anymore, I want it, I'll give it to you at the market price." Shen Ningning said softly, and the old village chief was surprised.
"What does Ningning want the candy for?"
The little guy smiled sweetly: "Of course it's useful."
The old village chief saw that she was not joking, so he thought about it.
"You are not an outsider. You have been helping Xiangyun Village for so many days. How about this? Fifty taels, thirty kilograms of loquat candy, all for you!"
Shen Ningning's mouth opened slightly, and it was her turn to be surprised: "So much? Otherwise, I will only keep fifteen kilograms, and the rest will be distributed to the villagers by the village chief."
Uncle Liu immediately said solemnly: "Ningning, don't be polite to everyone. You have helped us so much, and you deserve whatever you want."
"Yes," Granny Chen nodded in agreement: "If it weren't for Ningning, our village wouldn't have lived a better and better life."
Seeing the villagers so enthusiastic, Shen Ningning no longer refused.
After negotiating with the old village chief, the thirty kilograms of loquat candy in a sack was delivered to her village house.
After the villagers dispersed, Shen Ningning asked Jiang Zhi: "Sister Jiang, were you embarrassed when you went to the Zhennan General's Mansion?"
In fact, those boxes of jewelry and those teams of soldiers were all borrowed by the little guy from Jiang Zhi to Chen Shaobei.
The purpose is to shock Master Quan, make him afraid and regret, and return all these things later.
But thinking of the grudge between Jiang Zhi and Chen Shaobei, Shen Ningning still asked with concern.
Jiang Zhi thought of Chen Shaobei and snorted.
"Does he dare to embarrass me? I said it was your business, and he agreed to help without saying anything, and didn't talk nonsense with me."
Jiang Zhi drank a sip of water and said, "I will send these jewels back to him now."
Shen Ningning glanced at the sky and pulled her sleeves: "Let Brother Chen go, you take a rest."
Then, the little guy called Chen Ye and asked him to accompany the group of soldiers to the general's mansion and bring a thank you to her.
Jiang Zhi wiped the sweat dripping from her chin and looked at Shen Ningning with a little hurt.
Why did Sister Ningning arrange it this way?
Could it be that she was afraid that she would be dirty and steal these treasures?
The next day.
Shen Ningning rode the black wolf king and took the wolf pack.
Let Jiang Zhi and Chen Ye drive the carriage, put buckets of iced spiritual spring water, loquat honey that grandma had cooked last night, and hundreds of meat buns, and head straight to the capital.
The little guy still remembers those poor refugees.
Although Wu Zuchang's case is over, these people are still suffering, and she will help them if she can.
Jiang Zhi was silent along the way, as if she was worried. Shen Ningning talked to her several times, but she looked gloomy.
Arrived outside the capital.
There were fewer refugees.
It is said that Shen Ningning's previous actions attracted the attention of officials in the city. Fearing that the emperor would pursue and punish them, they dragged away the dead bodies and buried them.
The group of guards on the city wall were extremely stunned.
Why did this little wolf girl from Xiangyun Village come again?
After continuously opening the shed to distribute food, no matter how much money there is, it can't afford to waste it like this!
When the refugees saw Chen Ye set up a shed to shade the sun, Jiang Zhi put out pots of food like last time.
The familiar wolf pack made them feel friendly for the first time!
"Look, Miss Benefactor, she's here again!" They were ecstatic and squeezed over.
But they hadn't completely forgotten the rules, so they all lined up honestly.
Shen Ningning stood behind the table and said softly: "Don't worry, everyone can eat enough."
Two palm-sized meat buns, with a bowl of iced loquat honey.
These honeys were all made by Grandma Qin with loquat sugar.
Crushed ice floats, a layer of sweet loquat honey is poured on it, and the chopped peach flesh is added.
After gently stirring, you can see the ice cubes hitting the white porcelain, and under the scorching sun, there is a chill.
Take a sip, so happy!
Shen Ningning watched the refugees feasting on the food, and they kept saying it was refreshing.
She looked around, but didn't see the poor little boy who lost his mother last time.
Where did he go?
Shen Ningning did everything herself, and she tiptoed to add water to the refugees who came to refill their cups of loquat honey.
Jiang Zhi wanted to help, but the little guy asked her to have a good rest.
Finally, Jiang Zhi couldn't stand it anymore and said in a cold tone: "Sister Ningning, what did I do wrong? Why are you always on guard against me?"
Challenge to update 3 times failed... I caught a cold and had a fever. When the fever reached 39 degrees, I dreamed that I was running barefoot on an iron pot, and someone was chasing me. I just came back from the hospital for an injection. I will update while I am sweating and clear-headed. Don't mind, my dears. I will stick to updating 3 times as soon as I get better!
