The whole village is fleeing famine, fortunately I have a concubine system

Xiaomi really didn't know this bandit. The last time she and Wang Chengzi went to Wudu to find Zhang Xiucai, they didn't encounter any bandits on the way.

And I haven't heard Zhang Xiucai and Yuan Huanhuan mention it.

You have to know that Mr. Zhang is half a local in Wudu, and he knows most of the big and small things in the city.

What's more, there is Yuan Huanhuan, the prefect's wife, here. If there are bandits on Xiaomi's way back to Fengcheng, Yuan Huanhuan will definitely tell Xiaomi and the others.

This means that not only they don't know, but it seems that the prefect also doesn't know about this bandit's nest.

Seeing that Xiaomi and the others didn't say anything, Zhao Mazi knew that they didn't know about the Black Tiger Gang.

So he explained the Black Tiger Gang to Xiaomi before Chouchou:

“It’s not surprising that you don’t know about the Black Tiger Gang, lady. They don’t usually come down the mountain easily.

And they don’t look down on the money we have. It is said that they are all robbing to make big business.”

Xiaomi became even more confused after listening to Zhao Mazi's words. She didn't know why he was teaching them a lesson in such a bandit's den.

I don’t know whether this matter has anything to do with Shen Shiqing, or whether it is trouble caused by Shen Shiqing.

"Since they don't easily cause trouble to the people, how did you know about the Black Tiger Gang? And how did you help them to teach us a lesson?"

Zhang Xing'er asked when she saw Xiaomi in a daze.

Zhao Mazi quickly replied, "Lady Hero, this is a brother from the Black Tiger Gang. He told us this when he went down the mountain to drink. We are definitely not from the Black Tiger Gang."

Speaking of this, he scratched his head a little embarrassedly, as if he realized that it was not good to say this in front of the person concerned:

"I am thinking of teaching you a lesson so that I can take credit for it in the Black Tiger Gang.

Let’s see if we can join the Black Tiger Gang, hehehe.”

Xiaomi thought about it for a while but couldn't figure it out, so he put the matter aside.

He said to Zhao Mazi and the others, "Go ahead. Just assume that we have been taught a lesson by you. Take it to the Black Tiger Gang to claim credit."

When Zhao Mazi heard about this good news, he started to flatter Xiaomi again.

It was obvious that he had done this kind of flattery a lot, and he said to Xiaomi earnestly:

"I know that female knights are the most righteous, and I, Wang Mazi, will remember this.

If there is any problem in the future, I will definitely stick with you and will not eat anything no matter what you say."

Zhao Mazi repeated to Xiaomi what the hero should say as he usually heard from storytellers.

He also did not forget to clasp his fists towards Xiaomi, thinking that he looked very dashing.

He shook his hair, which had not been washed for several days and was already in clumps, and then limped away.

Stinky Melon and the Dumb shook their hair like Zhao Mazi did, but they didn't clasp their fists.

Because one of them had a painful arm, and the other was dislocated and couldn't lift it up at all.

Xiaomi looked at the three people with a frown as they left thinking they were very cool.

Daya didn't even look at the three of them. She just felt that they seemed a little confused.

He asked Xiaomi, "Guaibao, are these three people the kind of people with brain disease you mentioned?"

Xiaomi nodded, she also felt that these three people had something in common.

And even if that's the case, the Black Tiger Gang may not accept it.

"Oh my, little girl, I didn't expect you to be so strong. If I had known this, I wouldn't have run away just now. I got my ass whipped several times."

As he said this, he touched the donkey's butt with heartache. You know, this donkey is more valuable than him.

My family depends on this donkey for food. Now that it has been whipped a few times, I feel more pain than if it were whipped myself.

After the driver praised Xiaomi, he bargained with Zhang Xing'er:

"Sister, my donkey has been through a lot today, and you have delayed me for a long time.

I can pull another group of people in this long time, and you can give me an extra five cents later."

Zhang Xing'er was very grateful that the driver did not abandon them and even helped them stop Zhao Mazi and the others from trying to get Zhang Xing'er to run away.

So he thanked the driver and said, "Okay, I'll give you an extra five cents."

When the driver saw that Zhang Xing'er agreed so readily, the smile on his face froze for a moment.

He muttered quietly, "It's over, it's over. Seeing how straightforward she is, I should have said ten cents earlier.

This is a loss of five cents."

Although the voice was small, it was heard clearly by the three people sitting in the back.

Seeing that no one paid attention to him, the driver could only scratch his head.

He shouted "Dong dong" twice at the donkey, and this time the donkey stopped being angry and walked forward obediently.

"Here we are. Sister, you have to give me fifteen cents this time. Ten cents is the money we agreed to pay for my donkey cart, and the remaining five cents is for the beating of my donkey."

Zhang Xing'er counted out fifteen coins from her purse and gave them to the driver. Then, instead of letting the driver leave, she asked Xiaomi to go in and get some things.

Xiaomi knew what Zhang Xing'er meant, and ran into the house with an "Oh".

After a while, he ran out again with a piece of dried bacon and some bars of soap in his hand, which he handed to the coachman.

"Uncle, this is for you. Thank you for not abandoning us just now." As he said that, he put the thing in his hand on the donkey cart.

Lu Yuan looked at the bacon that Xiaomi placed on the donkey cart and swallowed his saliva. Just by looking at it, he could imagine how delicious it would be when he put it in his mouth.

The bacon is made from the pigs raised by Wang Zhuzi. The meat selected is from the pig's hind legs, which have more fat and less lean meat and are filling in portion.

The driver Lu Yuan looked at them reluctantly for a few more times before saying to Zhang Xing'er and Xiaomi:

"I can't take this, this piece of meat can be eaten for a year, it's too expensive.

I'll just take a bar of soap."

Nowadays, almost every household in Fengcheng knows about Wang’s soap because it is cheap and cleans cleanly.

Lu Yuan also knew it, but had never used it.

Although it is cheap, I still can't bear to buy it.

Normally, we use soapberries and wood ash to wash clothes. After all, these two things are free.

Lu Yuan held the soap in his hand, feeling the unique feel and smell of the soap.

I thought that since I happened to be at their house this time, I could try out how useful this soap is.

I use wood ash to wash clothes every day, and some of the dust on the clothes is stubbornly attached to them.

After a long time, the whole piece of clothing became stiff and covered with dusty marks.

Zhang Xing'er took two steps back after seeing Lu Yuan's expression, and said to him with a smile, "This is our sincere gift, so don't refuse it.

If that doesn’t work, we can just take the bus cheaper next time.”

Xiaomi also echoed: "Yes, uncle, just take it, otherwise we don't know how to thank you."

Lu Yuan scratched his head and chuckled twice.

He said to Xiaomi: "I didn't help much. You were the one who chased them away."

Xiaomi saw that they were pushing each other back and forth, and there was no solution. She said to Lu Yuan, "Oh, my grandma called us back for dinner. Let's go back!"
