"I..." Chi Xin felt guilty, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

Where did he buy anything with silver money?When you are a drug slave, it is impossible for you to be forbidden to go out in the teaching for the rest of your life.The original owner was taken care of by his mother when he was a child, and later he lived in seclusion in the Chi family mansion, and food and drink were delivered to the yard. Although he had received a monthly payment, he just kept it in a box and did not take it with him when he went out, nor did he buy it himself. over something.Therefore, his concept and experience in this area are almost zero.

"Have you never bought anything, or have you never seen the money?" Wei Duanqing saw that he was worried, and was afraid that the other party would have something to say, so he joked.If the other party doesn't want to talk about it, they can joke along, and it won't be embarrassing for the two of them to change the subject.

But the south of the Yangtze River is affluent, with a wide variety of transactions on the market, and the circulation of money is widespread. It is very common for half-aged children to run errands and buy goods on the street.Since Xu Xiaosi was born in the south of the Yangtze River, even if his family was poor, it is impossible for him to grow up without seeing money.The poorer the children of the family, the sooner they will be able to take charge of the family, unless those dandies who don't know the grain, food and clothing will be served by someone who doesn't need to spend money on their own.

In his previous life, Wei Duanqing at this age definitely did not have such delicate thoughts, but now that he is reborn, he can easily see Xu Xiaosi's expression and humble attitude towards others, and he is sure that he is not from a son-in-law.If you're not a son, how could you not know how to buy things?

Even if the man in black really mocked, Chi Xin wouldn't mind, let alone the other party spoke in a joking tone.

It is true that Chi Xin has never bought anything. He can recognize the money, but he doesn't know the price.What if you take the broken silver given by the man in black to buy food and get cheated?Instead, he thought of the other party and answered honestly: "I have never used money or bought anything. I went to the Feng family as a servant, and the Feng family should take care of my meals. If I rashly take the money to buy food and drink, I will Be suspected. I won't lie, I'm afraid you will still be found out. "

Seeing Xu Xiaosi's serious explanation, Wei Duanqing felt that the young man was more interesting, and gradually relaxed his tension: "Xu Xiaosi, I didn't ask you to take money to buy things from Feng's family. Is there other people on this boat?" Are you a merchant? Go and ask the head office secretly. It’s okay to be cheated by others, how can you have a long memory if you don’t fall for it. Besides, you can’t eat money, and the food I need in exchange for a high price is not bad for me.”

Chi Xin felt that what the man in black said made sense, nodded and continued: "Then tell me what you want to eat first. It's not suitable to go in the middle of the night, or wait until tomorrow morning. to buy?"

Waiting for tomorrow?Wei Duanqing spent the whole day running for his life and hiding, Shuimi didn't stick to his teeth, and he was starving to death tomorrow morning.Could it be that this young man is prudish, and he doesn't intend to buy him food on purpose?Maybe this young man is much deeper than he looks, Wei Duanqing didn't dare to be too exciting, so he retreated and said: "Forget it, what about your rice ball? Give it to me first."

Chi Xin saw that the rice balls she was reluctant to eat were swallowed up by the man in black in two or three bites. It would be impossible for him not to feel sad at all.He could only pick up all the rice grains stuck in the cloth bag and eat them, and comforted himself. Fortunately, he had already eaten half of the rice balls before, and he probably could survive until the day after tomorrow before eating.

"I'll pay you for this, I'll buy your rice ball." The man in black took out a gold bead and stuffed him with a few pieces of silver, "Don't make a sad face, the money I gave you is enough to buy food for a month .You only need to take care of my food for two days at most. When my entourage finishes handling the outside affairs and comes to pick me up, the rest of the money will belong to you."

Chi Xin refused to accept it: "How can this work? Since the money is rich, I will return it to you if you can't use it up. Besides, I may not be able to help you buy suitable food."

"I haven't said what I want to eat, how do you know if you can't buy it?" Wei Duanqing asked curiously.

"I..." Chi Xin didn't know why he was nervous and scared when he was pressed by the other party. Maybe he lied first?And he is indeed useless, he can't do anything, and he is even more difficult to speak when he is nervous.

"It's okay. I'll teach you. First of all, if you have wealth, you don't want to show it. You just pick out the smallest piece of silver and exchange it for food. I don't think you'll need the gold beads. You collect them yourself, and treat them as if I borrowed your place to sleep. The reward for sending you to do things." Wei Duanqing finished speaking coolly, and suddenly realized that he was at a loss, and joked, "Actually, this money is enough to buy you, right? Why don't you call the steward of the Feng family over alone? , I'll just buy out your body deed."

Wei Duanqing knew that only the direct descendants of the Feng family were proficient in martial arts, but the direct descendants were small, except for coming to the south of the Yangtze River to compete in martial arts, they usually practiced in the north, and had no time to go south and north with the cargo ship.Now the head of the Feng family on this ship is either a collateral or an ordinary shopkeeper with a lower status. His martial arts are not very high, and even if Wei Duanqing is injured in a single fight, he is confident that he can deal with it.

Chi Xin stared at the man in black with clear eyes, pursed her lips, and asked in a low voice, "You're joking again, aren't you? Just now you told me not to disturb others, and I probably don't want to see the Feng family's affairs. And I have to keep my promise Go to Feng's house, no matter how much you pay, I will not go with you."

The harder it is to get, the more you miss it.Wei Duanqing understands this truth, Xu Xiaosi repeatedly said that because of the promise to go to Feng's house as a servant, it seems that it is not a nonsense.It is true that this man kept his promise, he was full of kindness and never took advantage of the fire, and he treated him so respectfully and patiently, Wei Duanqing liked him more and more.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Xu Xiaosi took out a small piece of broken silver from his hand.The broken silver was just as small as a little finger, but Xu Xiaosi easily broke the small piece into several smaller pieces.

Ordinary people use special scissors to crush silver, and it is not easy to break it with their hands. Martial arts practitioners have strong hands, and it is okay to break large pieces, but the smaller the pieces, the more difficult it is to disassemble.Xu Xiaosi's seemingly slender fingers are so powerful?Could it be that he is a master of inner strength?Then showing this hand in front of the face, is it an implicit expression of deterrence?

Wei Duanqing was puzzled, if this young man not only understands medical skills, but also has practiced superior inner skills, then why is he rushing to work as a servant in Feng's family? This is even more strange.

Chi Xin didn't know that he was already "full of flaws", and he was thinking about using the money to exchange for food tomorrow, if he could exchange some more, and he would eat as well.

Wei Duanqing had all kinds of doubts in his mind, and his body was exhausted, so he fell asleep again in a daze.

Chi Xin didn't expect that the man in black fell into a coma again, and he didn't say what he wanted to eat.He had no choice but to pick up the dagger of the man in black, put it back in his hand, and put the medicine and money of the man in black back into his arms.

This movement involved the injury on Chi Xin's own neck, but the pain was so slight to him that he didn't even think about dealing with it, and it would definitely heal in a day or two.Instead, he was obsessed with the situation just now, and he was sure that after the opponent scratched him, he deliberately took the dagger farther away.

It turned out that some people were afraid of hurting him. Such kindness made him inexplicably happy.

The high-level servants and guards in the holy religion are all martial arts practitioners, and they are decisive in killing and fighting. They are generally not fake to the low-level servants, and some are violent and vicious to torture the servants for fun.Unexpectedly, the guard next to the young master was so kind, he couldn't bear to hurt him, and gave him back the money.

Thinking of the man in black saying that he had an entourage just now, a thought suddenly popped into Chi Xin's mind, could this man in black be the young master himself?But I heard that the young master has been poisoned by a strange poison since he was a child, and he has been teaching Chinese medicine to take good care of him. The purpose of the drug slave is to test the young master's medicine.If it weren't for this, abandoned and weak children like them would have died long ago.If you are a slave in the holy religion, at least someone will take care of you.

If the man in black is really the young master, why did he come to the Central Plains all the way?Has his poison been cured?

Chi Xin also tossed and tossed all day, exhausted from traveling and traveling.The man in black took up most of the place he found to lie down, so he had to shrink to a narrower place next to him, curled up and took a nap against another box.After falling asleep, the zhenqi in his body circulated continuously, and soon he forgot about the surrounding environment, and entered a very mysterious state, feeling refreshed all over his body, and he didn't even feel hungry.

When she woke up again, Chi Xin found that the man in black was gone.The ship shook, it should have set sail.

What's going on, where did the man in black go?

Standing up suddenly, the cloth bag fell from his arms.Looking through it, there was no rice ball inside, but a small golden bead and a few pieces of silver, as well as the small porcelain bottle containing the top-grade gold-chuang medicine.He obviously put all these things back on the man in black, why did he put them on him again?

The aroma of Jinchuang medicine could be smelled in the nose, and the wound on the neck had healed.The man in black was willing to use such a good medicine to heal his wounds, and even gave him the whole bottle of medicine?He obviously didn't do anything useful, so how could he deserve such a generous reward?

He quickly picked up the things and packed them up, full of doubts.After waiting for a while, the man in black still didn't come back, but Chi Xin had already figured it out.Anyway, he can't use the money and medicine, so save them first.Just wait until I see that person again in the future.If he can't see it, he will be free after ten years. He will go to the Holy Church and return the money and things to that person.

In doing so, he set a lofty goal.No matter what will happen to Feng's family, he will try his best to live a good life, on the one hand, to repay the kindness of the original owner's parents, and on the other hand, after the ten-year period expires, he will be free and can go to the Holy Church to find that person.

Unfortunately, he didn't know the man's name, and he didn't even see the real face of the man in black.And he understands that it is very likely that the other party doesn't care about these money items at all.

It doesn't matter whether the other party cares about him, he is no longer a drug slave, he may act according to his own ideas in the future, and then do what he wants to do, that's what matters.

He used to be a drug slave who couldn't help himself and died in a daze. Since God gave him a new chance, he might as well change his way of life.However, his vision is limited, and what he can think of now is just sticking to life, so that he can go to the Holy Church to find that person in the future.

Compared with this kind of specific goal, those other people who walk the rivers and lakes to fight for justice, or go back to Chi's house to eat and die are too illusory. He has no concept at all and has the fear of being seen through.

Chi Xin hid the money and the medicine bottle next to her body, walked out of the cargo hold and went up to the deck. It was already bright daylight.

According to usual, no matter how late he goes to bed, he will wake up very early.This morning was not normal, maybe the man in black tapped his acupoints again.He didn't think too much, and no one was going to prove what happened, so he could only hide what happened last night in his heart.If no one questioned him, he would not speak, so as not to cause trouble.

Feng Shu happened to be patrolling the deck, and saw Chi Xin doing nothing, as if he had just woken up for a stroll, and he compared himself to being busy with business all day long, so his heart was naturally unbalanced.He called Chi Xin to stop him, and asked angrily, "Young Master Chi woke up and continued to look at the scenery?"

That's right, Chi Xin did just wake up, he didn't find the man in black, and he didn't have to worry about asking other merchants about buying high-end food. The scenery on both sides of the strait was also pretty, which attracted his attention.He was extremely ashamed, hurriedly bowed, and said with a guilty conscience: "The wind management is good, I don't know what to do, please give me instructions."

"Did you sleep well yesterday?" Feng Shu had bad ideas in his mind.
