A peasant girl traveled through time and space, and she became prosperous

If he really dared to do it, she would not be a pushover. She was not the original owner. Not only did she have the ability to protect herself, she also had the ability to keep her entire family from being implicated.

Wen Meijiu took two quick steps forward, raised her slender white neck in front of Prince Wang, closed her eyes slightly, and waited for his decision without any fear on her face.

Because Wen Meijiu walked too close and too quickly, Prince Wang actually took half a step back.

He was eager to stop the fight and protect his master, fearing that Wen Meijiu would hurt Prince Wang, so he immediately drew his sword and placed it across Wen Meijiu's neck.

Even though Wen Meijiu was very careful, he was a master and his martial arts skills were not inferior to Prince Wang. He had already discovered that she had a dagger hidden on her body and was afraid that she would hurt his master. Even if the possibility of this happening was one in ten thousand, he would never allow it to happen.

The sword was unsheathed, the cold light was dazzling, and the atmosphere in the yard immediately became tense.

Bu Er was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He knew that it was useless to try to stop the quarrel and it would only make the young master unhappy. So he might as well bite the bullet and risk being scolded and go beg the young master again.

"Sir, she, you see, can she, actually..."

Bu Er was tongue-tied and spoke incoherently for a while, while the proprietress anxiously echoed him:

"Yes, that's right."

No one wants tragedy to happen, but no one can persuade them and they can only watch the tension between Wen Meijiu and Prince Wang.

The old carpenter kept yelling,

"Sir, why are you so angry? She is just a little girl of fifteen or sixteen years old. She offended your master out of ignorance. Just let your master punish her lightly, but don't dare to kill her with a knife."

The old carpenter tried to pull Zhi Zheng's sword-holding hand, but Zhi Zheng shouted:

"Master Gao Yi, I know you care about the weak, but this fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl is already of marriageable age, and you should know the importance of this matter.

My young master is of noble status, when will it be someone else's turn to force him like this?

Whether the punishment is light or heavy is up to my young master, and outsiders are not allowed to make irresponsible comments.

It is my duty to protect you, Master, please do not persuade me again, or I will get angry."

At this time, he did not recognize any relatives or even give face to the old carpenter.

At this moment, what was surprising was that Prince Wang actually spoke calmly.

"Stop fighting, and don't be rude to the master."

Then, he looked towards Wen Meijiu with a disdainful expression and said:

"Since the master has spoken for you, then give the master some face and let you go."

Prince Wang gently pushed Zhi Zheng's hand, and Zhi Zheng immediately sheathed his sword and stood aside.

Wen Meijiu lowered her eyelids and gently touched her neck. The place where she had placed the sword just now felt a little cold. Should she thank him for his special favor?

He sneered in his heart, but kept silent while drinking the wine.

Prince Wang took in Wen Meijiu's reaction and suddenly raised his voice:

"I said that the death penalty can be avoided, but the punishment of life cannot be avoided. I will keep my word and punish you today..." He paused for a moment, and everyone opened their eyes and pricked up their ears. He continued, "We haven't found lunch yet, so let's go to her house for lunch."

When these words were spoken, everyone's eyes bulged out. Isn't it too unbelievable that such a big fuss was made just to have a meal at someone's house?

The first one to object was Zhi Zheng, "Young Master is very particular about his food, I'm afraid Miss Wen's food may not suit your taste."

"It doesn't matter."

Prince Wang stood beside Wen Meijiu easily, not caring whether the other person was willing or not, he was going anyway.

"I also think it's inappropriate. There are too many people in the village to see clearly."

It makes sense that Bu Er is afraid that the young master's identity will be exposed.

"Don't be afraid, you can disguise yourself."

Prince Wang spoke in a relaxed tone, not taking it to heart at all.

"I can provide convenience for you, sir."

The old carpenter was entrusted to help Prince Wang, so he would naturally do his best.

Wen Meijiu looked at the old carpenter with disbelief in his eyes. How could he help the evil?

It seems that I don't have any choice. Isn't it just going to her house for a meal?

But this meal can be eaten by others, but it cannot be eaten for free by this young master.

Looking at the old carpenter's attitude towards Prince Wang, you can tell that their relationship is not as simple as it seems.

Why shouldn't she take advantage of this opportunity?

"Master and you are so familiar with each other, why don't you take my job today for your sake?"

Nowadays, the economy is bad and people cannot live and work in peace, let alone buy nice furniture. Even buying a coffin requires the family to discuss the thickness of the coffin for half a day.

Carpenters are also human beings and need to eat. The market is not good, young people cannot be retained, and the old people are eliminated early. It is not easy to meet such an old carpenter.

Wen Meijiu said it shamelessly. The old master looked at Master Wang for a long time without any reaction, so he did not refuse.

The quarrel between Prince Wang and Wen Meijiu was quite scary, but the result seemed to have some other meaning to the old carpenter.

"Okay then, but it may take some time. I'll study the drawings again and ask the girl if I don't understand."

"Thank you very much, Master. How much silver? Please tell me the number."

The old carpenter agreed readily, and Wen Meijiu did not drag his feet and wanted to settle the matter as soon as possible.

The old carpenter hesitated for a moment, picked up the drawing in his hand and looked at it carefully again, then hesitantly stretched out five fingers towards Wen Meijiu.

"Five taels of silver?"

Wen Meijiu had no idea how much it would cost to have this thing custom-made, so he asked just to make sure. What if it wasn't five taels? No one's money comes from the wind.

"Ah."

The old carpenter had no idea either, he just felt that this thing was difficult to make and required a lot of time. He would not lose 5 taels, but he did not know how much he could earn, as it mainly depended on how long it would take.

Of course, if Wen Meijiu couldn't afford the money, the old carpenter had plenty of work to do and there was no need for him to take this order.

Young Master Wang raised his chin slightly, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, but before he could say anything, Bu Er moved beside him.

Bu Er thought Wen Meijiu didn't have that much money, and was frightened by the amount the old carpenter said. He stood up and said:

"Master's craftsmanship is excellent, five taels is worth it. If Miss Wen doesn't need it, I happen to have five taels of silver lying around, so it's okay to lend it to you."

Although he said it was a loan, Bu Er didn't really think so. He had no intention of taking the five taels of silver back. He said so only because he was afraid that Wen Meijiu would not want it.

"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Fuji. I have it."

Wen Meijiu was about to pay. When the old carpenter heard that someone wanted to pay for Wen Meijiu, he knew what was going on and reached out to stop him.

"Girl, don't be in a hurry to give the money. Whether this thing can be made and whether it can be used after it is made are still to be determined.

Well, I'll ask you to come and see it when I'm done. If you're satisfied, it won't be too late to pay. What do you think?"
