The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

After receiving the reward, Yan Zhenshen carried Chu Xiao to the ox cart. The hunters had not left yet and asked curiously, "Your husband was fine last night, why is he so listless now?"

Now they dare not underestimate Chu Xiao. The bamboo sticks on the wolves' legs are evenly distributed, leaving no wolf untouched.

They even discussed privately that this guy was most likely a real hidden weapon expert and killing the pack of wolves should be no problem at all.

The reason why they all put it on their legs is probably because they want to give them a share of the pie.

The more they thought about it, the more admiring they looked at Chu Xiao, and the more envious they became of Yan Zhenshen.

No wonder these two people dared to attract the wolves, it turns out they are all masters.

So seeing Chu Xiao's pale face, some people were puzzled, and one of them even asked, "Is your husband's internal energy too exhausted?"

Although they don't know what internal force is, storytellers have all said that real martial arts are divided into internal force and external force.

This guy can't carry anything on his shoulders or lift anything with his hands. He must be practicing internal strength.

Yan Zhenshen glanced at them subtly, then nodded: "Yes."

The hunter grinned: "Are you really hunters? Where did you learn your inner strength?"

Yan Zhenshen thought for a moment and said, "I learned some martial arts from a hunter who had released soldiers before. My husband once met an old Taoist priest when he was a child."

That’s all I have to say, please imagine the rest.

Several hunters even made up the story themselves: "It seems that the old Taoist must be a master. Why don't I have such luck?"

The other one also nodded repeatedly: "Forget about internal strength, it would be good if someone could teach me some boxing and kicking. I just rely on my brute force to do this."

"Who isn't?"

Several hunters laughed and bowed to Yan Zhenshen and said goodbye: "Little brother, see you later."

Yan Zhenshen bowed in return: "See you later."

The ox cart slowly drove away from the village. Chu Xiao wrapped himself tightly and said to Yan Zhenshen: "Brother Shen, I will meditate for two hours."

"Okay." Yan Zhenshen went into the carriage again to help check it again: "Hold the hot water bottle tightly, don't get cold, I'll drive the ox cart slower, you can meditate more."

He knew that his husband would not feel so uncomfortable after meditation, so a longer time would definitely be better, and a slower and steadier time would also avoid bumping his husband around.

It took Yan Zhenshen two and a half hours of wandering before he finally arrived at the provincial capital.

Chu Xiao also regained some spirit, lifted the curtain and asked: "Brother Shen, where are you?"

"There's a queue at the city gate, and it will be our turn soon."

When it was their turn, the soldiers guarding the city saw the pile of wolf skins and looked at Yan Zhenshen in surprise: "Are these all the wolf skins from Yongshun Town?"

Yan Zhenshen nodded: "Someone wants to collect it."

The soldier then realized that they must have been bought from other hunters. He said, how could one person hunt so many?

However, the hunters who could go to Yongshun Town were all warriors, so he admired them and politely let the two pass.

The two went to the inn to rest. Chu Xiao meditated all night and took the wolf skin to find the butcher the next day.

The butcher originally thought that three or five wolf skins would be the maximum, but he never expected that there would be twenty-three wolf skins.

"So many?" The butcher counted them one by one in disbelief.

"Well, it's okay if you don't want so many. Just take as many as you need." Yan Zhenshen didn't force it. At worst, he could sell it to a fur shop. Even if they couldn't give him three taels and five cents, they should still be able to get three taels.

"No, no, I want them all." The butcher was originally buying for someone else, so he offered more than that price, so the more the better.

However, he didn't have enough money on him, so he asked Yan Zhenshen to wait here while he went to get the money.

The butcher's meat stall is actually doing good business right now, but with big profits to be made, why would he care about such a small profit?

But the meat couldn’t just be left there when people came to buy it, so Yan Zhenshen helped sell some.

As he was selling them, he said, "Why don't we sell our wild boars in the same way?"

Chu Xiao had no objection, and said, "Then go back to Anning Town and sell two during the winter solstice, and two more during the Chinese New Year."

As for the rest, just deal with them slowly. After all, the wild boars have run deeper into the mountains, and you may not see any wild boars in the mountains for two or three years.

The butcher came back trotting and handed over the silver, a total of eighty taels and five cents. Yan Zhenshen confiscated the five cents and asked the butcher to cut some meat.

He saw a shop in the city that processed braised meat, and he wanted to get some braised meat to eat on the road.

They didn't plan to sell the wild boar, and all the mountain products were sold out, so the two began to wander around the city.

I have to say that, except for the food which is a bit more expensive, the prices of cloth and jewelry are not as high as those in Anning Town.

Chu Xiao picked out more than a dozen pieces of cloth in the cloth shop, in all kinds of colors. He didn't buy any silk or satin, just cotton cloth. The craftsmanship was at most better than that in Anning Town. He spent more than twenty taels of silver, which was a huge sum of money.

Then we went to a jewelry shop and looked at all the ones we thought were suitable for mother and third sister. In the end, we selected four bracelets. We couldn’t favor one over the other. Since mother and third sister have one, Yan Zhennan and Xiaobei’s future wife must also have one.

What's more, Xiaobei's marriage has been arranged, so their family has to show some appreciation, and it is only right to give Qingger a bracelet.

Chu Xiao went to the pastry shop again, buying this and that, and almost bought out the entire shop.

The boss looked at them with a strange look, as if they had suddenly become rich and had no idea where to spend the money.

How could he understand Chu Xiao's thoughts? He was going to take these back and eat them slowly. Who knew when he would have to wait until the next time he came to the capital city.

Finally, the two of them went to a restaurant for a big meal. Chu Xiao was very satisfied, patting his round belly.

Early the next morning, the two set out to return. The ox cart drove out of the city and headed towards Anning Town along the same route.

When we returned to Anning Town, there were still three days left until the winter solstice.

Chu Xiao continued to distribute the jewelry he brought to everyone. Zhao Guizhi said angrily, "I'm old now, why do I need so many jewelry?"

"Mom is not old, she is still very young." Chu Xiao coaxed sweetly: "I carefully selected it, don't you like it?"

"I like it. How can I not like such a bright bracelet?" Zhang Guizhi naturally would not refuse Xiao Ge'er's filial piety. She smiled and said, "Mom will stew meat for you tonight."

As he said that, he called Yan Sanmei over to help her. After all, the girl had been staring at the bracelet for a long time and was almost going crazy.

As for Yan Zhenbei, he took the silver bracelet with a red face and a smile full of anticipation, thinking that Qing'er would be very happy to receive the gift.

He quickly thanked him: "Thank you, Ge Fulang."

Only Yan Zhennan refused to give it up: "I don't have a wife or husband, why do I need this thing? You can keep it for yourself, brother."

"For your future wife." Chu Xiao didn't want to bring this thing.

Yan Zhennan touched his head embarrassedly: "My wife might not like this either."
