The Young Ranger Jiang Yin
Chapter 39 The strange old man
The little girl who spoke was named Mo Xiaobei, and she was the sister-in-law of Tong Xiangyu, the owner of Tongfu Inn.
Although he is young, he speaks quite maturely.
Her identity is not simple either. She is the granddaughter of Mr. Mo Da, the head of Hengshan School.
Two years ago, there was an internal conflict in Hengshan Sect. Mo Xiaobao, the young leader of Hengshan Sect who was supposed to get married, was thrown off a cliff and died.
Mo Xiaobei was almost killed, but fortunately he escaped in time and found Tong Xiangyu who was staying at Tongfu Inn waiting for the wedding party and Mo Xiaobao.
Since that incident, Mo Xiaobei has stayed in this inn and lived with her sister-in-law Tong Xiangyu, who lost her husband before she could even get married.
Mr. Mo Da did not ask about this, as if he had forgotten about his granddaughter.
This involves the internal strife among the Five Mountains Sword Sects, which is quite complicated.
Jiang Yin has been in this world for more than a year, so he has some understanding of the relationships between characters after the fusion of some worlds.
"It turns out that she is the granddaughter of Mr. Mo Da of the Hengshan Sect, Miss Mo."
"My grandfather is not Mr. Mo Da."
When Mo Xiaobei heard Jiang Yin mention Mr. Mo Da, his expression was quite unnatural.
It seemed that Mr. Mo Da had left her here without paying any attention to her, and she felt quite resentful.
Jiang Yin naturally would not interfere in such family affairs.
Guo Furong then said, "Mr. Jiang, why don't I take you out for a walk? Although this Qixia Town is not big, there are still many things."
"Okay."
Jiang Yin did not refuse.
"I'm going too! I'm going too!"
Mo Xiaobei became excited when he heard this.
She can buy things while shopping, and maybe even get some candied haws, so she is naturally enthusiastic.
But Guo Furong didn't want to take her with her.
She pulled Mo Xiaobei aside and whispered, "Xiaobei, be good and don't go with me today. Next time we go out, I'll buy you some candied haws."
"You're lying. You don't even have any wages. How can you buy it for me?"
Mo Xiaobei complained.
"This..." Guo Furong was speechless for a moment. She almost forgot about this matter.
"Then I'll go borrow money to buy it for you, okay?"
"Who are you going to borrow from? Brother Bai spends all his wages on alcohol. My sister-in-law and Uncle Dazui are so stingy, you have no chance. The only one left is a scholar.
But you borrowed two cents from the scholar last time, and after so many things happened, it would be strange for the scholar to lend you money again."
As Mo Xiaobei continued talking one by one, Guo Furong found that she seemed to have no one to borrow money from.
This is very embarrassing.
A penny can make a hero fall, let alone Guo Furong, a little girl in distress.
"If you keep talking nonsense, I will overwhelm you!"
When the bribery failed, Guo Furong directly raised her palm to threaten.
This trick really worked. Seeing this, Mo Xiaobei immediately backed down.
"I suddenly remembered that I still have homework to do, so I won't go. Brother Jiang, Sister Guo, have fun."
After saying that, Mo Xiaobei ran away.
He who knows the times is a hero. Mo Xiaobei, who comes from the Hengshan School, understands this principle very well.
"I shouldn't have said that much nonsense just now. This trick still works."
Guo Furong murmured in her heart.
The reason why she didn't want to bring Mo Xiaobei was very simple. She wanted to ask Jiang Yin more about martial arts on this trip. If she brought Mo Xiaobei along, she would have to take care of her, which would naturally be inconvenient.
"Mr. Jiang, let's go."
"it is good."
Although the conversation between the two was low, Jiang Yin was no longer the same person he used to be. His inner strength was more refined and his hearing had greatly improved, so he could hear it clearly.
However, he did not comment on this. After all, although he overheard it unintentionally, it was still eavesdropping, and it would be impolite to speak out.
After leaving Tongfu Inn, Guo Furong enthusiastically acted as a tour guide and asked Jiang Yin about martial arts.
Jiang Yin answered all the questions he could, and for those he couldn't answer, he could only give a perfunctory answer.
"Tang haws! Tang haws! Delicious Tang haws! One penny a bunch!"
"Shaobings, shaobings! Two big shaobings for one penny!"
Entering the downtown area, the hawkers’ shouting sounds one after another, along with various aromas, are enough to stimulate one’s appetite.
Jiang Yin listened and smelled, and he also felt a little hungry. "Miss Guo, do you want to eat something? I'll treat you."
"Ah? I'm so sorry."
Guo Furong was indeed a little greedy, but still felt a little embarrassed.
Ever since she was kept in this inn, she has had no pocket money, and her meals and lodging are all in the inn. Things from the outside world have become a luxury for her.
"It doesn't matter. The things are not expensive."
"Then... that's fine."
After hearing this, Guo Furong did not refuse.
Just be reserved for a while. If you continue to be reserved, you will be doing a disservice to your stomach.
Eating at a snack stall is always a happy thing.
Soon, Guo Furong felt the long-lost happiness. Although she was a rich lady, Guo Juxia was not born in a noble family, so the Guo family did not have a rule that she could not eat at a small stall.
Jiang Yin just smiled faintly when he saw this.
Although Guo Furong seemed to be in some difficulty now, Jiang Yin, who knew the ending, felt that this was a kind of experience for her.
With Guo Furong's hot temper, she is indeed not suitable to be a female knight.
Because she is easily led by others.
To be a knight, one must not only be skilled in martial arts, kind and brave, but also have wisdom and patience.
It should be noted that good people and bad people cannot be seen at a glance, but require comprehensive investigation and understanding to draw a conclusion.
A good man who is famous all over the world may be a criminal, and a bad man who is reviled by everyone may be a wronged person who was framed.
These things are not uncommon in the underworld.
Not to mention the distant future, if Guo Furong had wisdom and patience, she would not have become the male and female evil spirits in the beginning.
Jiang Yin was attracted by the aroma of Roujiamo, walked to the stall nearby, and said, "Boss, give me two Roujiamo."
"Okay, sir, wait a moment."
The boss got busy.
Just then, a fat old man came over.
He was dressed in rags and looked quite poor.
He looked at the Roujiamo in front of him and couldn't help licking his lips, looking very hungry. "Boss, can you give me one too?"
"Go away, it's you again. Do you have money? Don't delay my business."
"If you don't have money, you can buy on credit."
"I'm a small business, so I don't sell on credit."
The fat old man was somewhat helpless. He looked at Jiang Yin standing aside, his eyes brightened, and he said, "This young man looks quite wealthy. Why don't you treat an old man like me to a roujiamo? I haven't eaten for two days."
Jiang Yin glanced at the fat old man. He didn't look like he had practiced martial arts. He seemed to be just an ordinary old man.
"Old man, why don't you have a sesame cake?"
Before Jiang Yin could speak, Guo Furong took out the remaining pancake and handed it to the fat old man.
But the fat old man shook his head and said, "No, no, the sesame cake doesn't have much oil or water, and it doesn't satisfy your appetite at all."
This made Guo Furong laugh.
"I think you're still not hungry enough! If you don't want to eat, then don't eat. I'll eat it myself!"
After Guo Furong finished speaking, she took a bite of the pancake viciously.
Such delicious sesame cake, yet you still dislike it.
Jiang Yin smiled and said, "The old man has quite a lot of requests."
"As a human being, you should always have some pursuits. You can't just want to fill your stomach, right?"
The fat old man also laughed.
"That's right. Just for what you said, I'll treat you to this roujiamo. Boss, another one."
