I was divorced because I got pregnant during the lean years, so I went back to my parents’ home and

"You are talking about Master Feng, right?"

Ji Xiaobei nodded.

"Bah! He is not a good guy. He colluded with the bandits to hide the relief grain and killed countless people. His two sons have been arrested and are now in the cell behind the county government office. I heard that they will be executed in the next few days!"

"Shitou, go check on Ji Decai. I feel like the sound he makes is not right. Go check on our donkey cart."

Ji Xiaobei said to Shitou.

Shitou scratched his head: Why didn’t I hear Gide call?

However, he still got up and hurried out to see Ji Decai.

If the donkey cart gets stolen, we'll be doomed.

As soon as Shitou left, Ji Xiaobei asked, "Boss, there is a brothel in our county. It is at the end of a deep alley. It is a two-story building with an ancient style. There are many red lanterns hanging at the door. What is the name of the brothel?"

The shopkeeper was startled, swallowed his saliva, glanced at Ji Xiaobei's tall figure, and said in a low voice: "Miss, there are no male prostitutes in there..."

"puff……"

Ji Xiaobei spat out the tea in his mouth.

Am I someone who is looking for a male prostitute?

"Girl, girl, are you okay?"

Ji Xiaobei blushed and waved his hands.

The shopkeeper stood up and was about to leave, but his sleeve seemed to be caught by something, and he pulled it away with force.

There was a ripping sound and a piece of the sleeve was torn off.

"Girl, you...what is this?"

"I just want to ask what's the name of that brothel?"

"Zuihongyuan, walk west from here, pass a fruit forest, then turn right, walk a little further, turn left, pass two small alleys, and the third alley is it. There is a stone at the entrance of the alley with the words "Taishan Shi Gan Dang!" written on it.

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he grabbed the half sleeve in Ji Xiaobei's hand and was about to run away.

The young man who was leaning against the door frame watching the fun didn't dare to laugh and his face turned red. The shopkeeper was really familiar with that place!

Ji Xiaobei took a look at the waiter and understood about 80% of what was going on. The shopkeeper was very familiar with the place.

"Boss, I have something good here, but I forgot to show it to you just now!"

Ji Xiaobei said with a slight smile.

When the shopkeeper heard this, he quickly turned around and sat down again.

Ji Xiaobei took out an amber pendant from his sleeve, inside which was a small butterfly flapping its wings.

The shopkeeper was just about to reach out to take it.

Ji Xiaobei took it back immediately.

"This thing is valuable, you can't touch it, you can't touch it, hehe..." The shopkeeper laughed awkwardly.

"Shopkeeper, I want to ask you something. I have a little sister from my family who was sold to Zuihongyuan a while ago!"

Ji Xiaobei spoke nonsense.

The shopkeeper wiped the sweat from his head. He said that he didn't hold her back well today and talked too much nonsense.

"There is an old lady in Zuihongyuan. She is very white and fat, like a white steamed bun. What is her name?"

Ji Xiaobei asked.

"Um, Mantou Mom!"

"Is Mantou's mother still in that drunken red building?

What is the relationship between that sharp-tongued Master Feng and Zuihongyuan?"

"Girl, I really don't know about this. I'm just a businessman. My wife is not here. I go there once or twice to have fun. The main reason is that if I go there too often, I can't afford it. I really don't know about that master!"

"Boss, I'm just asking for you. I don't mean any other things. We are still business partners."

Ji Xiaobei pushed Amber forward and said, "Will you accept the 50 taels of silver from the shopkeeper? If not, I'll go ask somewhere else."

“Put it away…” The shopkeeper felt the room was hot and stuffy. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and carefully picked up the pendant.

The waiter brought up 50 taels of silver.

Ji Xiaobei: This business is doing well. Zheng Guo bought it on Bingxixi for 4.9 yuan with free shipping...

Ji Xiaobei walked out of the door, and Shi Tou was looking at her in confusion.

"Sister, Ji Decai and the donkey cart are both fine, nothing happened."

"Ahaha, ok, let's go!"

Stone:……

Ji Xiaobei: We can’t bring Shi Tou with us to that place. What should we do with this kid? If we know there’s nowhere to put him, we won’t bring him with us.

Shitou was looking around excitedly. Wei County was still the best, much better than Cishui Town.

"Shitou, are you hungry?"

"I'm hungry!" Shitou looked up at the sun and immediately changed his tone, "I'm not hungry. It's not time for lunch yet."

"It's not mealtime yet, but there are also food stalls in Wei County. Let's go eat!"

Ji Xiaobei raised his head and said.

Shitou wanted to refuse, but he honestly followed the direction Ji Xiaobei pointed.

The two walked around Weixian Food Street.

Ji Xiaobei ate mutton noodles, sugar-coated twisted dough sticks, hairy eggs, and fried cakes...

Shitou ate the mutton noodles, sugar-coated twisted dough sticks, hairy eggs, and fried cakes that his sister couldn't eat...

Ji Xiaobei asked the shopkeeper to pack five pounds of sugar-roasted chestnuts.

Shi Tou: Five pounds. Are you crazy? Who can eat that much?

Seeing that his sister looked unhappy, he didn't dare to say anything. He stared at the shopkeeper's hand, wishing he could break it so that he could no longer put chestnuts in it.

If this street were any longer, Shitou would have had a heart attack and died.

Wherever they went, the two of them repeated the same words and actions.

Ji Xiaobei's eyes were sparkling with excitement: Wow, it smells so good!

Shi Tou swallowed his saliva and said disdainfully: What's so delicious!

Ji Xiaobei: You don’t want to eat?

Stone: I don’t want to eat!

Ji Xiaobei: I want a big bowl of mutton noodles, with an extra 2 taels of mutton...

Ji Xiaobei: I can’t eat it all, it’s too much, I’m dying of fullness!

Shi Tou: I knew you couldn’t finish it, I’ll eat it for you!

Shitou wanted to swallow the bowl.

……

Ji Xiaobei only tried a little of everything and bought all the stones.

When he reached the end of the street, Ji Xiaobei was eight-tenths full and leaned against the wall for support.

"Sister, you bought too many chestnuts. I can't eat any more..."

Shitou held his stomach with his hands, looking embarrassed.

"It's not for you to eat. I'm taking it back to give to the people in the workshop!"

Shi Tou nodded slightly with relief, then shook his head.

Sister, you are not crazy, are you? You spent so much money to buy chestnuts, but you are going to give them to outsiders to eat.

But I can’t let my sister know about this idea, otherwise I’ll get scolded again.

Ji Xiaobei: People who have experienced hunger have a deep-seated fear of fear and will regard food as the most precious thing.

No matter how wealthy he becomes, he will not change. This is a mark etched in his mind.

She understands Shi Tou's stingy spirit.

Although Zheng Guo has never experienced famine, the ideological imprint passed on to her by her grandparents has always been in her.

Don’t eat the things in the refrigerator until they go bad, and don’t be reluctant to throw away leftovers.

Ji Xiaobei smiled and picked up a chestnut, handed it to Shitou and said, "Try it, it's delicious!"

Shitou was stunned and immediately realized that he had grown up and how could his sister feed him on the street.

However, he felt warm in his heart and ate the chestnuts his sister fed him with a red face.

"Sister, you are so nice!" There was some warmth in Shitou's eyes.

"Ok!"

"Sister, let me hold the chestnuts!" Shitou snatched the bag of chestnuts from Ji Xiaobei's hand and put it over his arm.

He quickly picked up a chestnut with his other hand and walked on tiptoe, bouncing back and forth, as happy as a monkey!

Ji Xiaobei: …
