Evil fairy is rare

Chapter 323 Pretending to be ignorant ([-])

"Do I know you?" You Zixin replied coldly.

"Whether you know each other or not, it's fate for us to live in this inn. Heroine, since we're sitting at the same table, I have some beef here, and you have wine, how about eating and drinking together?" The old businessman at the same table said suddenly.

Fu Jiushu glanced at him, but heard You Zixin say hello.He also retracted his hand without saying a word.

"Come, let's eat together. The weather is tormenting people, making life difficult. These days, life is becoming more and more difficult." The old merchant became more and more eloquent after drinking. "It's hard to be a businessman. If I had known it earlier, I would have dumped rice, which is better than selling cloth."

"Oh?" You Zixin asked suspiciously, "Is rice easy to earn?"

"That's not true. In the Huaibei area, the common people eat up all the grass roots and bark, the kitchen households rob rice, and the hungry people grab grain. Once they enter Zhenjiang, they spend a hundred dollars for a bucket of rice. Gradually, they grow to Su and Song, and it has increased to a hundred and thirty or forty. Merchant ships can’t wait to close the rice, the shops are almost closed, and those who have a little money are all in the rice.”

"Before winter, there was an earthquake in Jiyang, Jinan Prefecture. The sound was like thunder, the houses shook and the ground shook, and countless houses were destroyed. It’s over. Natural disasters and man-made disasters, at the end of this year, the imperial court has collected new salaries in various places for the purpose of fighting against the enemy in Liaodong. You say, in such a situation, who cares whether to wear clothes or not, it’s important to have enough food first.”

"If this continues, how will the common people live?" You Zixin frowned.

"How else can I live?" The old merchant looked around and said in a low voice: "If you can't survive, you will die, or else, you will die."

"Just kidding, isn't the old man afraid of being beheaded when he speaks?" Fu Jiushu said with a sneer.

"I have traveled all over the world, and I have seen countless people. They all look extraordinary, and they are definitely not members of the imperial court. If you report on the old man, you are afraid that you don't have the time."

Fu Jiushu and Leng Youxi looked at each other and smiled, "Old man has sharp eyes, take a look, what is the relationship between the three of us?"

"You called yourself just now, she is your uncle." The old merchant pointed to Leng Youxi and said, he looked at You Zixin and Fu Jiushu again, "You two are similar in age, so you must be brothers and sisters."

"Come on, let me offer a toast to my husband. You are right." Fu Jiushu toasted, but it was like a daughter.You Zixin hated him for deceiving herself, and said angrily: "Fart! Who is your junior sister?" Her words were crisp and clear, and everyone felt that they couldn't speak comfortably and nicely when they heard her. Even if they are too vulgar, they all smile.

"Little brother, what are you talking about?" Seeing him shy, the old merchant frowned.

"To be honest, my family is poor. I wanted to enter the palace to seek a future, but I didn't want the entrusted person to die suddenly. I couldn't enter the palace, so I had to be a servant in a rich family. These two are my teachers who taught me how to read. Uncle, the other is my sister."

"That's right, in this troubled world, maybe even if you enter the palace, you can have something to eat." The old merchant replied.

"I don't have an elder brother who is a eunuch." You Zixin replied, "I only have myself."

Fu Jiushu looked displeased when he saw her tearing things apart, but he still poured a glass of wine for the old merchant.

"You can't say that. Your brother entered the palace to change his family situation. He is willing to do such things in a low voice. I see that you are dressed in brocade clothes. It is clearly your brother's care. How can you not pay back!" Said the merchant.

Fu Jiushu raised his eyebrows triumphantly, and cast a glance at You Zixin.When she first entered the door, when she saw herself, she was about to cry, and now she had to pretend again, to see how long you pretended.

Seeing his attitude, Leng Youxi knew that he deliberately fabricated the facts, and it turned out that he was suspicious and molested You Zixin.

"I was born with one and never had an older brother. How can you know so clearly? Don't you just listen to his nonsense? One-sided words, nine out of ten are unreliable."

Leng Youxi opened her eyes wide, glanced at You Zixin, and was surprised to see that her face was calm as usual, but she didn't lose her temper.

These words were answered seamlessly, without showing any traces, which is not like her style at all.

Fu Jiushu's heart skipped a beat. If it was normal, she would definitely jump up with anger.She's not lying, she really doesn't remember me!Seeing Leng Youxi staring at him, she was afraid that she would find out what was on her mind, so she snorted coldly and said softly, "I don't have a sister like you either."
