Chapter 27: Jiang Nannan, the thrifty one
Outside Tiandou City, a caravan was parked by the road. The caravan was not very large, with only four carriages in total.

".Mom, don't think too much. We can go to Tiandou City and see the doctor with peace of mind."

After the orange-haired girl gently calmed her mother's emotions, she reached out and wiped the tears from her eyes. Clutching a few silver soul coins, she slowly walked to the carriage in front where Huo Yuhao was riding and found the old man who was in charge.

"Old man, this is the travel expenses from the last city to Tiandou City. Please accept it."

"Nannan, what are you doing? When we were walking on the mountain road, you helped us drive away several hundred-year-old soul beasts. Speaking of which, we should pay you for the escort team."

The old man had a simple smile on his face and took out a gold soul coin from his purse.

"I didn't expect that Nan Nan, at such a young age, has already attained the level of Soul Venerable. She is indeed a student of Shrek Academy. It is an honor for me to be able to give you and your daughter a ride."

The old man seemed to want Jiang Nannan to accept the reward with peace of mind, and he also said happily: "These days, hiring a great soul master will cost seven or eight silver soul coins."

"Please accept this gold soul coin. Your mother is seriously ill and needs money right now."

Jiang Nannan looked at the gold soul coin handed over by the old man, her lips moved, and after hesitating for a moment, she finally accepted it.

"Thank you, uncle."

Jiang Nannan took the gold soul coin and seemed to sense a not-too-weak soul power aura. She glanced at Huo Yuhao with her orange eyes as clear as water.

Huo Yuhao greeted with a smile.

Jiang Nannan nodded slightly, withdrew her gaze indifferently, and walked to the back of the carriage to accompany her mother.

Huo Yuhao was also a little surprised. He didn’t expect that the first time he met Jiang Nannan, who was known as the most beautiful girl in the outer courtyard in the original novel, would be in this way, on the front and rear carriages of the same caravan.

Then the entire caravan rested on the spot.

The old man patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Little boy, do you know each other?"

Huo Yuhao thought for a moment and smiled, “When I was selling grilled fish in Shrek City, I heard a few Shrek Academy students mention her.”

Several grooms of the caravan prepared a big pot of rice.

The old man's gaze lingered on Jiang Nannan and her daughter for a moment, and he sighed softly.

"This is not the first time I've given them a ride. Their family situation is very difficult. Their mother has been seriously ill for many years and there is no cure. Nan Nan still has to study at Shrek Academy."

"During every holiday, Nan Nan would take her mother to various clinics in various towns to seek medical treatment, but over the years, her mother's illness has not been cured."

"Hey, it's not easy for everyone when they are away from home. This is all I can do to help them."

Some businessmen always want to aspire to be a sophisticated egoist, but after seeing the various tragic experiences of people who are not living a satisfactory life, they are ultimately unable to maintain their hard-heartedness.

As Huo Yuhao listened, he lit a bonfire and took out a small grill.

As an ice-attribute soul master, it is a piece of cake for him to keep the remaining herring fresh by freezing it.

He took out a large cube of ice from his ring, inside which were a dozen cleaned herrings.

The old man, several grooms who were preparing the big pot meal, and Jiang Nannan's mother and daughter were inevitably curious when they saw this scene.

Huo Yuhao moved his mind, and the entire cube of ice melted instantly. With the help of his soul power, more than a dozen grilled fish were placed on the grill.

When the old man saw the ice melt instantly, he knew that this was obviously not something an ordinary person could do: "Little friend, are you also a soul master?"

Huo Yuhao did not hide it deliberately and nodded: "He is a young spirit master who has just started his cultivation and has a spirit ring." "That is much better than my disappointing grandson."

The old man sighed and said, "My grandson's awakened brick martial spirit may be due to the smoke coming out of his ancestral grave. He finally got the second level of innate spirit power, but now he is more than ten years old and is still struggling in the spirit warrior stage."

While Huo Yuhao was listening to the old man's words, he was flipping the grilled herring.

He did not use strange fire or beast fire. The burning campfire made a crackling sound, and the tempting aroma of grilled fish quickly spread.

Jiang Nannan's delicate nose twitched slightly. She glanced in the direction of the grilled fish, moved her lips but did not speak.

Mother Jiang showed a gentle smile on her sickly pale face: "Nannan, go buy two. Mom wants to eat them too."

Jiang Nannan knew that her mother had seen her greedy look just now, and her cheeks slightly blushed: "Okay, Mom."

She stood up, adjusted her dress a little, reached out to touch her hair, and gathered the messy orange hair on her forehead to her ears.

Huo Yuhao skillfully flipped and grilled the herring. After brushing it with a layer of prepared sauce and spices, a light layer of fat flowed on the golden grilled herring, and a rich aroma continued to emanate from the fish's belly.

The aroma of grilled fish penetrated everyone's nostrils. The grooms who were cooking the big pot of rice stopped shoveling their pots, and saliva began to flow in their throats. They suddenly felt that the big pot of rice they cooked was tasteless.

At this moment, a clear and gentle voice sounded from in front of Huo Yuhao:

"Little brother, are you selling your grilled fish?"

Huo Yuhao looked up and saw Jiang Nannan asked, then stood quietly in front of him waiting for a response.

Jiang Nannan's dress was simple and had a few wrinkles on it. Her wavy orange hair looked a little messy from sitting in the carriage for a long time.

But her appearance is quite delicate, her skin is as white as porcelain, her figure is very tall, and her eyes are like a pool of clear water. Even without dressing up, she can be described as elegant and beautiful without makeup.

Huo Yuhao told the price of the grilled fish: “For sale, five bronze soul coins per piece.”

Jiang Nannan pursed her lips and said, "Little brother, you're selling it a little too expensive."

Huo Yuhao flipped the grilled fish and smiled like a little brother next door: "But it smells really good. Besides, this is outside the city. I froze all the fish along the way to keep them fresh."

Jiang Nannan thought about it and felt that it was indeed worth the money.

She glanced at the herring on the grill, which was obviously several sizes smaller, and opened her lips slightly:

"Little brother, I want to buy two grilled fish with ten copper soul coins. Can you give me the smaller one?"

Huo Yuhao blinked his eyes. He didn’t expect Jiang Nannan to be so calculating.

“Okay then.” Huo Yuhao picked up two grilled fish plus a small grilled fish, a total of three, and handed them to Jiang Nannan.

"Thank you little brother."

Jiang Nannan thanked him softly, took the grilled fish, handed over ten bronze soul coins, and then walked towards the carriage behind.

At this time, the old man's big pot of rice was ready, and a large special carpet was laid on the ground.

The old man called out, "Nannan, help your mother over here. It will be more lively if we all eat together."
