Pang Hongying got up from the bed, folded the quilt and went out to check.

I saw a young man with a cane standing at the door of Zhao Huanxi's home and talking to Zhao Huanxi.

"Miss Zhao, I came here to thank you for saving my life that day. If it weren't for you, I would have died in that valley."

Xu Qingzhao was holding something wrapped in cloth in his other hand, but no one knew what it was.

"Oh, no need. We are all from the same village. It would be too formal."

Zhao Huanxi saw Pang Hongying coming out of the house and shouted to her enthusiastically:

"Miss Pang, wake up. Did you sleep well last night?"

Pang Hongying walked forward with a smile and said to Zhao Huanxi:

"Sister Zhao, your bed is very comfortable. I haven't slept so comfortably in a long time. Who is this?"

"This is Xu Qingzhao, a young man from our village. We helped him out a little last time we went into the mountains."

"Brother Xu, I'm Pang Hongying, the escort from the Pang's Escort Agency in town."

Pang Hongying suddenly began to introduce herself, looking at Xu Qingzhao intently.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Pang." Xu Qingzhao forced a weak smile.

He had been back in the village for several days and had been bedridden. He was only able to get out of bed yesterday and wanted to come and express his gratitude, but he heard that Zhao Huanxi's family had gone to town early in the morning, so he came to express his gratitude early this morning.

Zhao Huanxi slapped his forehead and said, "Brother Xu, come in and sit down. Look at me, I made you stand at the door for so long with your crutches. Come in and sit down."

As he said this, he wanted to help Xu Qingzhao into the yard.

"No, Aunt Sun is waiting for me at home for dinner, so I won't stay any longer. This is the fox fur I hunted last time. I'll make a scarf for Miss Zhao. I don't have anything else to give, so I hope Miss Zhao doesn't mind."

Xu Qingzhao entered the courtyard, put down his bag, and limped away.

Zhao Huanxi wanted to see him off, but then he remembered that there were many people in the village and it was noisy, so he just shouted "Goodbye" and came back to close the gate.

"Brother Xu is really something. He is so seriously injured but he doesn't stay at home and lie down. Hongying, what are you thinking about?" Zhao Huanxi found that Pang Hongying loved to daydream.

"Oh, oh. It's okay, Sister Zhao, I should go home now. My father should be back from his escort mission today. He must be worried when I'm not home."

"Ah... then it's not too late to come back after breakfast. I've already prepared everything and was just about to call you."

When he pulled Pang Hongying into the kitchen, he found that the three girls had already finished eating and were doing other things. After all, he was the last one to get up in the family, and he couldn't help blushing.

On the table were a few boiled eggs, a bowl of porridge, and two plates of cold dishes. Zhao Huanxi then pulled two steaming buns from the pot.

"Miss Pang, it's just a simple meal, so just eat it. I'd be really sorry if you left with an empty stomach."

Zhao Huanxi laughed and joked.

"If this is just plain food, then my family is no better than this. Sister Zhao, thank you for your hard work."

I picked up a bun and after two bites I could tell it was made by the Wuda Bun Shop in town. Then I took a bite of the cold dish, which was crisp and refreshing, and really good to go with porridge.

"This side dish is also unique. If Sister Zhao opens a restaurant in town, I will definitely be the first to go and support it!"

Pang Hongying ate and praised, and soon she had cleared the food on the table like a whirlwind. She seemed to realize that she had eaten a little too much and felt a little embarrassed.

"Hehe, the food at Sister Zhao's house is delicious. I ate a lot. Don't laugh at me."

"How could that be? Miss Pang is a martial artist. Wouldn't it be better for her to eat more to have more strength? Besides, if you eat a lot, it's a testament to my cooking skills. I'm so happy."

Zhao Huanxi was stoking a fire nearby, with a pot of pancakes baking in it. A few young girls were sitting nearby, chattering away about something.

After eating, Pang Hongying helped to clean up the dishes and went to the yard to get the horse to prepare to leave. Zhao Huanxi went out to see her off and packed a few pancakes for her to eat on the way.

Pang Hongying did not refuse, and accepted the pancake with a smile, and asked a few inexplicable questions:

"Sister Zhao, is Brother Xu married?"

Zhao Huanxi thought that the girl was attracted by Xu Qingzhao's good looks and was tempted by lustful thoughts, so she gave him an expression that said, "I understand."

"He's not married yet. He's the only one in his family. He makes a living by hunting, and he lives a pretty good life."

After saying this, he looked at Pang Hongying with a smile and narrowed his eyes.

"Sister, what are you thinking? I didn't mean that. I was just curious and asking."

After saying that, he got on the horse, and his heroic appearance made Zhao Huanxi extremely envious. She also wanted to ride a fast horse 5555

"Sister Zhao, remember to come and play with me next time you come to town. I usually stay at the escort agency when I have nothing to do. Don't forget!"

"Okay, I'll remember that. Please ride slowly."

After the two said goodbye, Zhao Huanxi went into the bedroom and opened the package sent by Xu Qingzhao.

There was a complete fox skin inside. Zhao Huanxi touched the fox skin and found it was soft. He actually felt a few taels of silver.

"Hey... this kid probably thinks one fox fur isn't enough, but this is a bit too much."

Animal skins are valuable in every era, but the color of this fox skin is just ordinary dark brown with some black hair, so it probably won't sell for a high price.

After thinking about it, he decided to accept the fox fur and put the silver into his wooden box.

She still remembered the last time Lu Feng tried to steal the silver. He thought he had hidden it well, but he didn't expect that outsiders could find it at a glance. This time, she racked her brains to figure out where Zhao Huanxi hid the silver.

The more dangerous a place is, the safer it is. She hid in a rat hole under the dry firewood in the woodshed. This time, she should be safe. But she still had to find a way to get out. She was worried about staying in a house that could be kicked open with just two kicks.

Thinking of this, I picked up a piece of meat and some snacks that I bought in town yesterday and went to the village chief's house.

On the other side, Pang Hongying, who was riding a fast horse, was also full of thoughts.

There's something wrong with Xu Qingzhao. He's in his twenties and not bad looking, so why hasn't he gotten married yet? And most importantly, he doesn't have an Adam's apple!

Her father had taught her since she was a child that she should observe more and learn to think when encountering things. Therefore, she was never a dodder flower attached to Pang Piaotou of the Pang's Escort Agency.

She also learned to walk several times, but she was always led by her senior brothers. However, she learned a lot from it, and the most important thing she learned was to observe people's expressions.

When she was talking to Xu Qingzhao this morning, she found that he seemed to be deliberately avoiding her sight, so she asked whether Xu Qingzhao was married.

After a brainstorming session, Pang Hongying came to the conclusion that Xu Qingzhao was either gay or had some hidden illness.

If Xu Qingzhao knew what she was thinking, he would probably laugh his teeth off... But that's all for later...

It took Zhao Huanxi half a cup of tea to reach the village chief's house. A young sister-in-law opened the door. When she saw that Zhao Huanxi was carrying meat and snacks, she guessed that he must have something to ask for.

"Oh, this is Sister Huanxi, are you here to see my father-in-law?"

"It's me, sister-in-law. Is the village chief uncle home?"

Xiao Sun welcomed the person in and went into the house to invite the village chief Lu Youmao.

"Zhao girl, why are you here? What's going on? Come in and sit down."

Zhao Huanxi sat down, handed the things to Xiao Sun and said:

"I never came to thank you for the last household registration, so I came today. I hope the village chief doesn't mind."

"That's my duty as the village chief. Take the things back. I appreciate your kindness."

"No, no, I came here this time to ask the village chief for help with something."

Xiao Sun looked at her father-in-law, and seeing him nod in agreement, she took the things into the kitchen, leaving the two of them to talk inside.

"Tell me what's the matter. You're welcome." After saying that, he took a sip of tea.

"I want to buy land."

"Buying land is a good thing. What kind of land do you want? Good land or poor land?"

Zhao Huanxi shook his head and said to the village chief:

"I want to buy that large piece of wasteland near the mountains and forests, which is connected to my home."
