Shuxin was just asking casually and had no intention of buying the girl's.

But seeing Liang Xiuyuan like this, she became even more suspicious and didn't want to give it to her.

The Gaoya man glanced at the girl and motioned for her to answer quickly.

It seems that this noble man wants to buy her, so why don’t you behave yourself?

"My name is Chunxiao."

She answered timidly.

I was originally going to call myself mine, but then I realized that was wrong and changed my words.

Liang Xiuyuan nodded. No matter whether this person was arranged by the master or not, she couldn't leave him to Shuxin.

So she prepared to send an order to buy the girl.

"Chun Xiao, huh? I am..."

Without waiting for Liang Xiuyuan to finish her words, Shu Xin directly took out a few silver ingots and handed them to Gao Yaren.

"I've made my choice, it's her!"

Shuxin pointed directly at Chunxiao.

Everyone looked at each other in surprise. They all realized that Liang Xiuyuan also had a crush on Chunxiao.

Isn't Shuxin's behavior a blatant act of stealing people?

However, no one present said a word.

The Gaoya people stared at the silver ingot in Shuxin's hand, smiling so hard that their teeth were showing.

"This……"

He glanced at Liang Xiuyuan hesitantly, feeling that doing so would offend that young lady.

"You think it's too little? This is five taels of silver."

Shu Xin smiled and reached out to take the silver back.

When Tao saw this, she wanted to rush to give the silver, but was stopped by Shuxin.

She calmly winked at Tao, telling her not to worry.

She signaled to Liang Xiuyuan with her eyes, and Tao immediately understood, nodded and stopped talking.

The Gaoya hesitated for a moment, then happily took it.

"How can I change it to be too little! It's just... if this lady wants to choose someone again, she only needs to give one or two taels of silver. Do you think it's okay?"

These words were said to Liang Xiuyuan, meaning that Shuxin had given too much here, and Liang Xiuyuan only needed to give a little extra as a token of appreciation later.

The Gaoya people smiled cautiously, not wanting to offend anyone all of a sudden.

Liang Xiuyuan gritted her teeth secretly, and the smile she had managed to maintain suddenly broke free.

She didn't expect Shu Xin to play by her own rules and make the first bid.

If she doesn't give in, it means she is deliberately competing with Shuxin.

Originally, Shuxin was the one who wanted to argue with her, but now, she became the unreasonable one.

Liang Xiuyuan quickly figured out the key point, and her blood rushed to her head with anger.

This is like roasting her on the fire!

But now that Shuxin has spoken, if she still insists on competing with Shuxin, then the good image she has worked so hard to maintain will no longer exist.

She could only give up first.

I'm afraid that if I don't do it well, that gentleman will definitely blame me later.

Liang Xiuyuan secretly groaned in her heart.

"You are a good person. Let's do this."

Liang Xiuyuan glanced at the Gaoya people coldly and gritted her teeth.

The Gaoya man smiled and praised Liang Xiuyuan a few words.

"Miss, you are such a good person, you are pretty and kind-hearted, you will definitely get what you want!"

Say nice words as if they don't cost anything.

Then Liang Xiuyuan started to select people.

This time, without waiting for her to go over, a short girl knelt down on her own initiative.

"Miss, please buy me. I can read and comb my hair, and I am also good at needlework."

Liang Xiuyuan had an idea and asked the girl to raise her head.

Seeing that she had pretty features and looked pleasing to the eye, he decided to marry her right away.

He changed her name to Xi Que, paid her one or two taels of silver, and took her back.

She walked in a hurry and snorted coldly when she passed by Shuxin.

Shuxin had a blank expression on her face and pretended not to hear anything.

Liang Xiuyuan felt like she had punched cotton and felt very uncomfortable.

However, thinking that Xi Que might be the person arranged by that master, she didn't dare to take her anger out on her.

Shuxin took Chunxiao back.

She didn't change Chunxiao's name, but just asked a few questions about what she knew and what her life was like at home in the past.

Then he asked her to stretch out her hand and take a look.

"Well, the hands are a little big, but the joints are long and slender, and it doesn't look like he is used to doing farm work."

Shu Xin said casually.

Chunxiao was so scared when he heard this that he immediately knelt down.

"Miss, I...I'm sorry, you still found out."

Chunxiao was very frightened. He knelt there, shaking like a sieve despite his huge stature.

"Well, tell me what happened."

Sit down leisurely and drink tea.

Chunxiao gritted her teeth.

"I am not actually the daughter of a farmer. I am the eldest daughter of Mr. Xu from the Weiyuan Escort Agency in town. There was a flood this time, and my father was accidentally washed away by the flood while he was out escorting. My stepmother took the opportunity to sell me off."

Chunxiao explained through gritted teeth. She looked at Shuxin. The puppy's eyes were filled with tears, and he looked pitiful and helpless.

"So you know martial arts?"

Shuxin took a sip of tea, looking very relaxed.

"Yes, I know a little bit, and I am strong, so I can handle ordinary people."

Chunxiao pursed her lips, her words were subtle.

In fact, she didn't take ordinary people seriously.

Shuxin glanced at Chunxiao's expression and saw that she looked very confident.

Shu Xin understood that Chun Xiao's skills were definitely not bad.

No wonder...

Not only are the joints on the hands thick from doing farm work, but there are also calluses on the palms near the fingers.

The calluses on Chunxiao's hands are concentrated at the base of the thumb, which shows that he is using a weapon.

Fortunately, I have watched a lot of TV novels up to this point, otherwise I would have been deceived by Chun Xiao.

Seeing Shuxin didn't say anything, Chunxiao panicked.

"Miss, I deceived you, I'm sorry... Please don't send me back."

She didn't cry, but tears appeared in her stubborn eyes.

Shuxin looked into Chunxiao's eyes for a long time and finally let out a long sigh.

"Don't worry, I won't send you back. I spent five grains of silver, and I can't get the money back if I send you back. It's not worth it."

Shu Xin said quietly, with a hint of annoyance in her tone.

It was as if he really cared about the five taels of silver and regretted his impulsive behavior at that time.

"Huh? Then..."

Chunxiao was a little confused.

"Then you will be responsible for protecting our safety. If you do well, you will be rewarded handsomely!"

When Chunxiao heard this, he kowtowed to Shuxin and expressed his gratitude to her.

"Thank you for not killing me, my life belongs to you from now on. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west."

Chunxiao patted his chest loudly.

Shuxin waved her hand to stop him.

Shuxin finally breathed a sigh of relief when Chunxiao followed Tao downstairs to wash and pack up.

She always felt that there was something wrong with what happened today, especially Chun Xiao, who came at the perfect time.

It will inevitably make people suspicious.

Fortunately, she was placed by his side and did not go to Liang Xiuyuan.

Next, keep a close eye on Chunxiao to see what problem she has.

Thinking of this, Shu Xin went out to find Wu Zhiyong and asked him to help inquire about the Weiyuan Escort Agency while he was out. The purpose was naturally to confirm Chun Xiao's identity.

However, within a day, Wu Zhiyong received a reply.

"The story about Weiyuan Escort Agency is true. I also asked about the appearance of the eldest lady of Weiyuan Escort Agency in detail, and she matched Chunxiao one by one."

Wu Zhiyong replied.

Shuxin frowned in thought.

Am I worrying too much?

At this time, Chunxiao saw that there was no one around, so she quietly looked in the direction of the front yard.

He sighed.

If Shuxin saw this scene, she would definitely find that there was something evil in Chunxiao's expression at this moment.

Just like the Anbu leader An Yu.
