So she waited and waited. She waited for a long time without seeing the girl her mother was talking about. Until Chen Xi appeared, she felt very much like her, but she couldn't be sure. After all, those men in black robes also came from the outside world.

The best way to verify is to follow Chen Xi and observe slowly!

The mother said that when the Chinese country is in chaos, she will take out the token and give it to the girl. Although the mother has not had time to finish her words, she knows that the thing must be a very important thing.

So for so many years, she never revealed even a word about her father.

Even if Chen Xi is a good person, if he is not the person her mother talks about, then she cannot tell the whole story.

Unknowingly, Chen Xi practiced for three hours. During this period, Liu Bingzhang had already come once. When he saw someone practicing, he did not knock on the door. Instead, he went back and asked his mother to keep the food warm until the master was ready. .

Chen Xi felt that it was almost time. She opened her eyes and looked at the time. Sure enough, a long time had passed.

She remembered that when Liu Bingzhang left, he said he would come to call her for dinner, but it was obvious that he had come but did not disturb her.

Chen Xi was embarrassed to let people wait for her alone, so she opened the door and walked out.

When they came to the living room, they all sat there obediently, staring at the food without moving a chopstick, and all the food was steaming.

Chen Xi felt a little embarrassed and apologized: "Sorry, I just practiced and forgot the time, so I kept you waiting for a long time."

Liu Ming's family of three smiled and waved their hands, saying that they did not waste time and that the time was just right. They were in a hurry and did it a little early.

Chen Xi sat on her seat and looked at the delicious food on the table. Before she even took off her chopsticks, Zhang Xia had already picked up a piece of ribs in the bowl: "Master, try this, which I am best at."

Chen Xi glanced at the serving chopsticks in her hand. She was such a considerate person.

He smiled and took a bite. After swallowing, he praised: "Yeah, it's very delicious."

These are not polite words, they are really delicious!

Zhang Xia was so happy that she put down her chopsticks and picked up the serving chopsticks to pick up several pieces of ribs for Chen Xi.

What she is most proud of in her life is her cooking skills. Now that she has been praised by the master, she is so happy. She wants to give Chen Xi a whole plate of ribs to eat.

Chen Xi also accepted everyone who came, and she swallowed all the food she could get, making her mouth full of oil.

Liu Bingzhang looked at the residue piled up in front of Chen Xi with shock in his eyes. For the first time, he discovered that girls can also be very good eaters.

He silently filled a bowl of black chicken soup and pushed it over.

He also wants to try the fun of feeding!

As soon as the black-bone chicken soup arrived in front of Chen Xi, the three people who were chatting happily all looked at him, as if to say: What's the matter with you kid?

Liu Bingzhang pushed him over in embarrassment, took back his hand, and said with an awkward smile: "I see that Master has eaten so much greasy food, it's time to drink some soup to relieve the greasiness."

It seemed that what he said was right, everyone was back to their original contentment.

Liu Bingzhang watched Chen Xi take a sip of the black-bone chicken soup. He felt so proud that the bitter melon in his mouth became sweeter.

He kept putting it in his mouth.

Liu Ming frowned. His son hated bitter things. Today he almost finished a plate of stir-fried bitter melon. The sun was shining in the west.

After dinner, after a brief rest, Liu Ming took Chen Xi to the antique market.

On the phone beforehand, Chen Xi had told him the reason for coming this time, so Liu Ming had made an appointment with his old friend last night to come over and look at the materials today.

When the two arrived, the store door was closed.

Liu Ming knocked on the door, and the door opened from the inside. An old man with long braids, a pair of glasses, and a white beard peeked out from the crack of the door.

When he saw that the people coming were Liu Ming and a little girl, he opened the door wider, welcomed them in, and then closed the door again.

Liu Ming introduced: "This is the master I mentioned to you. She saved my son's life!"

When the old man heard this, he looked at Chen Xi with his deep eyes. He looked at Chen Xi openly for a while, stroked his beard, and nodded with approval: "Well, he has an extraordinary temperament, and he is an extraordinary person at first glance."

After a pause, he added: "It's rare to have such an achievement at such a young age. The young old man is the shopkeeper of this shop. My surname is Hu. You can call me shopkeeper Hu like everyone else."

Chen Xi raised his eyebrows, feeling that this person's words and deeds had an ancient charm, and felt very friendly, as if he had returned to the world of cultivating immortals.

Chen Xi smiled and replied: "Shopkeeper Hu liked it immediately. There are many powerful people in the world, but no one walks in the world like me."

A few people sat in the living room sipping tea and chatting briefly for a while. Shopkeeper Hu thought of the purpose of their visit and shouted into the courtyard of the inner hall: "Xiao Zhang, go get the jade I prepared last night." Bring all the pieces up."

After a while, a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old walked in from the back door pushing a trolley.

The cart was full of jade stones of different sizes, which were in good condition. Chen Xi's eyebrows relaxed, which was quite unexpected.

What if the relationship between shopkeeper Hu and Liu Ming wasn't very good? That means shopkeeper Hu needs her help for another matter?

After Liu Ming pushed the things up, he kept carefully observing Chen Xi. When he saw his facial expressions relaxed, he knew that this time it was very suitable for her, and he felt happy in his heart.

"Master, let's choose?" he suggested.

Chen Xi nodded and followed Liu Ming forward, looking at the stones scattered on the ground.

There were several pieces among them. Just by looking at the appearance, Liu Ming felt that there must be something good inside.

Similarly, Chen Xi was also quite surprised. Not only 100% of the stones in this pile were made of good materials, but at least 80% were made of good materials.

"Shopkeeper Hu, what are you doing?"

Chen Xi didn't think that someone with a good relationship would be so generous. It was probably Shopkeeper Hu who wanted to ask for something.

Sure enough, as soon as the question came out of his mouth, shopkeeper Hu said: "To be honest, I do have something I want to ask of you."

Chen Xi raised her eyebrows with a knowing expression, indicating for him to continue.

On the contrary, Liu Ming was a little unhappy. If something happened, why didn't he tell it in advance? Instead, at this juncture, he could not imagine the consequences if he offended the master.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He glared at Shopkeeper Hu fiercely and decided to settle the score afterwards!

Shopkeeper Hu had heard from Liu Ming about Chen Xi's deeds of saving his son before. He could tell that Liu Bingzhang was in danger just by looking at his face, and successfully turned things around. He thought about asking this master to come over for help, but he didn't expect it. The opportunity just came to my door.

So last night he carefully selected and took out all the treasures he had collected. He told himself in his heart that if these things could make the master happy, then the things he was struggling with would be solved.

God knows, his back was so nervous that he was sweating just now, because he was afraid that this little girl would guess what he meant, throw up her sleeves and leave.

Now I saw that the master was not angry, but allowed himself to continue speaking, and immediately apologized: "The master is indeed a man of great courage, I am ashamed!"

Chen Xi knew what he was ashamed of. To be honest, she was a little unhappy at that moment, but this was what she was doing now, getting paid to do things.

No one owes anyone anything, and if the jade materials were calculated, he would still have made a lot of money.

Chen Xi said: "It doesn't matter, just tell me what happened!"

Shopkeeper Hu thought about the situation at his relative's house, frowned and said, "I would like to ask the master to go there in person. You will know after seeing it."

"Of course, these things are what I pay you!"

After finishing speaking, he waved to Xiao Zhang behind him, who took the bag and packed all the things.

Chen Xi looked at such a big bag and felt really tired, so she said, "You don't want to open stones here?"

Shopkeeper Hu slapped his forehead and suddenly realized: "Oh, look at my brain. We also opened it. I forgot about it in the excitement just now. I will give the order now. When we come back, everything should be prepared for you." alright."

Chen Xi nodded: "Well, it's still early now, please take me there."
