Out of sympathy for the fat man and a good impression of General Zheng and his wife, Qiao Ran thought for a while and took out a small porcelain bottle from the space.

He said to Mr. Lin: "Do you want to lose weight? This is my homemade slimming pill. As long as you take one pill a day, you will be able to lose almost 20 kilograms in a month. After another month, although the speed of weight loss will be It will slow down, but you can lose at least ten pounds every month. Are you willing to give this pill a try?"

"Really?"

Mr. Lin was overjoyed. He snatched the porcelain vase from Qiao Ran's hand and held it tightly in his arms like a treasure.

"My dad said, if I can keep my weight the same for a month, I will get half of my pocket money back. If I can lose one pound a month, I will get all my pocket money back. If I can lose ten pounds, I will get back all my pocket money." Reward me one hundred taels of silver, five thousand taels for losing one hundred kilograms! Quack! If you can really help me lose weight and not limit my food intake, I will share half of the reward with you! Five thousand taels, divided into two thousand five hundred taels. , Forget it, I’ll give you three thousand taels!”

Qiao Ran just couldn't stand the fat man's figure, which was as fat as a mountain and made the whole floor move when he went down the stairs. She didn't want her fourth uncle to be accidentally crushed to death when he walked with him. She didn't expect this fat man. He was actually willing to give himself so much money.

She immediately smiled wider.

"Okay! That's it. But although you are not restricted from eating delicious food, you are not allowed to overeat. When you are too full, stand up and walk hundreds of steps. Don't sit down immediately after you are full. And , although this medicine has no side effects, because it helps you lose weight, it will expel excess things from your body. During the period of taking the medicine, you will go to the latrine a few more times a day, and there will be no other uncomfortable symptoms. "

Master Lin was even more happy after hearing this.

He was most afraid of not being able to eat good food, and he was also afraid of pain and trouble. So over the years, no matter how hard his family tried to coerce him, he could not lose weight.

It's okay now. It's just a few more trips to the latrine. He can still tolerate this little trouble.

As long as he can successfully lose weight and his father no longer restricts himself from eating delicious food and no longer withholds his pocket money, then he will not have to suffer so much, and he will not have to rack his brains for a meal to blackmail others. One step away.

Thinking that he had stolen this meal, Mr. Lin felt a little embarrassed despite his shamelessness.

"Thank you, Mr. Qiao, for the pills! And for this meal, hey, when I have money, I'll treat you back!"

He couldn't say the words to apologize, but the apology was already in his words.

Qiao Ran smiled: "Okay!"

Mr. Lin got on his carriage, but saw the uncle and nephew of the Qiao family still standing there. Looking around, it seemed that there was no carriage ready to pick them up.

He asked curiously: "Don't you two have a carriage?"

Qiao Ran shook her head: "Let's go to the city gate to rent a carriage and go back."

Thinking of Young Master Qiao treating him to delicious food and giving him weight loss pills, Young Master Lin was not a stingy person, so he immediately invited him warmly:

"Hey, why are you renting a carriage? Hurry up, come up, I have nothing to do anyway, so I'll take you back! Also, let's go and see what the legendary Devil's Valley that can eat people is like. Look at you guys It’s safe and sound after living there for so long, so it shouldn’t be that scary, right?”

Qiao Ran thought that the mountain road into the valley was narrow, overgrown with weeds, and very bumpy. The fat man had a full and round stomach, and he couldn't shake the food out of his stomach after a few bumps?

Therefore, she was not afraid that he would follow them into the valley, so she said: "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey. Thank you Mr. Lin for your kindness!"

With that said, he pulled his fourth uncle, who was speechless all the way, into the carriage.

Mr. Lin is so big that an ordinary carriage would be too cramped for him to sit alone.

Therefore, his carriage was specially made, and the carriage was much larger than ordinary carriages. After Qiao Ran and his fourth uncle sat in, there was still a lot of space left.

The carriage is also covered with thick cushions, which is very comfortable to sit on and can reduce the bumpy feeling of many wheels.

There was also a charcoal pot burning on the ground. It was the kind of bronze charcoal stove that only aristocratic families could afford. It felt warm as soon as they entered the carriage.

Mr. Lin also said proudly: "Isn't this charcoal good? There is no smoke at all! My uncle said it is smokeless charcoal, which is the same as..."

He suddenly realized, wasn't this charcoal sold to his uncle by the Qiao family in front of him?

The fat man who realized it later slapped his thighs and laughed: "Hahahaha... So you are the Qiao family in Devil's Valley that my uncle said? Oh, look at my brain! As early as you said you were from Devil's Valley , I should have thought of it when my surname was Qiao! My uncle brought some smokeless charcoal to my house and said he bought it in Devil’s Valley. He also said that there was a girl Qiao in Devil’s Valley who was smart and capable. I must go there today. Meet her and see what the person who is always praised by my uncle and aunt looks like!"

Qiao Ran and Qiao Sihai looked at each other, with half-smiles on their faces.

What does it look like? Don't you just look like "Little Master Qiao"!

But whether the fat man could go in and see "Miss Qiao", they felt that it was probably impossible.

Sure enough, when they reached the intersection into the mountain, Mr. Lin, who was used to being pampered in the capital city, frowned when he saw the narrow mountain road that was overgrown with weeds and looked less than two feet wide.

"This...is this your way into the mountains? How do you go here? There are grass and rocks everywhere, and the road is not smooth. Will there be poisonous snakes and beasts suddenly jumping out of the grass? Will the carriage get stuck on the road or crash? Going down the ravine? Oh my, it’s so difficult outside. If you live in it, can anyone live there?”

Mr. Lin only covets delicious food, but he is not playful because he is too lazy to move. Except for occasionally going to Zhuangzi in the suburbs, he rarely even goes out of the capital city gate.

He never knew that there were people living in this wild mountainous area, which was overgrown with weeds and thorns, and harbored countless mosquitoes, poisonous snakes and beasts.

When Qiao Ran saw Mr. Lin's surprised look, she knew that he was too well protected by his family. He only knew about eating, drinking and having fun every day and had no idea about the sufferings in the world.

She smiled and said: "Well, we live in this mountain, and we have to walk a long mountain road. This is still outside, and people who come to cut firewood and hunt often come, so the mountain road is easier to walk. Going further in, the mountain road It will only become narrower and narrower, and it will become more and more difficult to walk. Our ox-carts and horse-drawn carriages rely on people to push and carry them to pass through some difficult sections. In this case, does Mr. Lin still want to go in? "

Mr. Lin looked at the mountain road that couldn't be called a road at all. He thought that after leaving the official road and walking all the way here, he almost vomited out the delicious meal he had finally stolen, so he hesitated.
