Quick Transmigration: My System is a Big Liar

Shi Xiao took a few steps and heard a question coming from inside. He wanted to leave quickly, but for some reason, he replied, "I am Shi Xiao, and I have come to deliver this earthenware pot to you."

Even when he tried to lower his voice, it was still very loud.

When Du Yuejiao heard that Shi Xiao had come to deliver the earthenware pot to her, she opened the door and saw a man not far away preparing to leave, his back to her.

"Brother Shi Xiao, why did you personally bring it back to me? I could have just left it at Aunt Wang's house and picked it up later. Why did you have to make this trip?"

Before he could speak, Du Yuejiao continued, "Thank you for clearing things up for me yesterday, otherwise I'm afraid I would have had a hard time cleaning up this mess."

Even as he spoke, Shi Xiao did not turn around. "I was just telling the truth, I didn't do anything, you don't need to take it to heart."

Seeing that Shi Xiao did not turn around, Du Yuejiao knew that he was avoiding suspicion, so she didn't say anything more. Anyway, she had already conveyed her gratitude.

When I bent down to pick up the earthenware pot, I noticed a pheasant next to it that had been shot through by an arrow. I knew without a doubt that it was sent by Shi Xiao.

The person has already gone far away, so let's leave it at that for now and repay them when we have the chance!

For several days in a row, He Cuilian would appear on time, each time mending clothes.

That afternoon, He Cuilian came to find her with a pink handkerchief in her hand.

She also took out her unfinished mandarin duck purse and sat down with He Cuilian to embroider it, the two chatting casually.

In an hour, He Cuilian embroidered a small flower, which was crooked and not as good as a child who had just learned.

He Cuilian blushed when she saw Du Yuejiao's gaze. She lowered her head and said softly, "I'm sorry to have troubled you, Sister Du. My mother passed away early, and I had to take care of my father and help my younger brother, as well as do housework. So all I know is basic sewing and mending. My mother-in-law taught me this after I got married. But I'm clumsy, and my embroidery isn't very good. Unlike you, Sister Du, who is so skillful."

Du Yuejiao had touched the calluses on her hands; they didn't look like they were from doing housework, but rather from holding weapons for a long time.

Don't ask Du Yuejiao how she knows, because she practices swordsmanship every day and knows which part of her hand to use to exert force and where calluses will grow.

If it weren't for the spiritual spring water, her hands would probably have calluses too.

“Auntie’s family are all good people. Sister Cuilian will be even better in the future. Embroidery doesn’t require any special skills. You’ll get better with practice. I started holding a needle when I was six years old, and it’s been ten years now. Practice makes perfect!” Du Yuejiao moved her neck and put away the needle and thread. She was still a little unaccustomed to sitting still for an hour.

For the past two weeks, Du Yuejiao has noticed something strange: whenever she runs out of meat at home, meat always seems to be delivered to her door automatically.

A pheasant flew into the yard, a rabbit crashed into a tree, and a wild boar died of exhaustion in front of her.

One time could be a coincidence, but repeated occurrences inevitably raise suspicions.

The key point is that each time it was at home or on the road outside, not in the mountains.

The most outrageous thing was this wild boar. She just went to pick some scallions from the vegetable garden next door, and a wild boar appeared out of nowhere and died right in front of her, leaving her completely dumbfounded.

Finally, taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, he put it into his spatial storage.

Du Yuejiao had some doubts. Could this be a skill that the main system rewarded her with after the end of the last world?

Otherwise, why didn't this happen in the previous life, or even the life before that?

Du Yuejiao didn't plan to eat the wild boar meat, because she had eaten wild boar meat before, and it was tough and fishy, ​​not nearly as delicious as domestic pork.

So she decided to sell the wild boar meat to save it from taking up space.

She's a petite girl, carrying a wild boar in town; she's bound to attract attention, especially since she can't easily reveal too much right now.

She still needs to find a reliable person to help her, even if it means giving some of her money to that person.

After thinking for a long time, Du Yuejiao thought of the person He Cuilian gossiped about with her, Shi Xiao.

Recently, in an effort to get closer to her, He Cuilian would occasionally gossip about people or things in the village. Although her delivery was somewhat awkward, it didn't bother her at all.

Du Yuejiao also learned some things that everyone in the village knew, such as why the position of village chief of Niujia Village fell to someone surnamed Shi.

And whose wife is having an affair with whom?

Whose daughter is the prettiest, and so on!

One of the gossipy figures was someone she knew, Shi Xiao.

Shi Xiao raised his younger brother and sister-in-law single-handedly. At the age of twenty-two, he is still unmarried. He built a house for his younger brother and helped him get married, but his sister-in-law complained that he ate too much and directly divided the family property.

After the family split up, he even encouraged Shi Hu to ask Shi Xiao for money, and if Shi Xiao didn't give it to him, Shi Hu would throw a tantrum and refuse to give up.

Shi Xiao used to make a living by hunting. After his younger siblings got married, he found a job, working at the slaughterhouse at night to slaughter pigs and farming at home during the day.

Du Yuejiao planned to ask Shi Xiao for help privately because she trusted Shi Xiao's character. Perhaps she believed that a man who hadn't abandoned his younger siblings in the most difficult times, and who would rather not get married himself than abandon his younger brother to help him build a house and get married, couldn't be that bad.

In the evening, while everyone was eating, Du Yuejiao quietly took a shortcut to Shi Xiao's house. She originally planned to come after dark, but she remembered what He Cuilian had said: Shi Xiao slaughtered pigs at the slaughterhouse at night. There were too many people in the village during the day, and she was afraid that if she were seen, rumors would spread and affect Shi Xiao, which would not be good.

When she arrived, Shi Xiao was cooking in the kitchen.

It was called a kitchen, but it was really just a shed built with a few pieces of wood, with a stove inside and drafts coming out from three sides.

While cooking, Shi Xiao noticed a gaze fixed on him. He assumed it was his younger brother, Shi Hu, who needed to see him, since his brother would always come to him complaining about being poor whenever his sister-in-law returned from her parents' home.

That's why he hesitated to turn around, waiting for his younger brother to speak.

Unexpectedly, he had already cooked a whole dish, but the person behind him hadn't said a word yet. Was he asking for too much and was too embarrassed to ask?

He then asked with a hint of self-deprecation, "Did that family ever feel embarrassed?"

Shi Xiao planned to ignore it and pretend he hadn't seen it. He was carrying the food back to his room when he heard someone calling him.

"Brother Shi Xiao."

Du Yuejiao regretted it as soon as she shouted; she should have waited until Shi Xiao finished eating before speaking.

But since things were already like this, he could only bite the bullet and, under the other party's surprised gaze, continue, "Brother Shi Xiao, can I ask you for a favor?"

Shi Xiao also realized what was happening, suppressed the surprise in his eyes, put the food on the table inside the house, walked up to the other person, and said, "Sister Wu, if there's anything you need, just let me know. As long as it's within my power, I will definitely help."

As Shi Xiao approached, Du Yuejiao unconsciously took two steps back and whispered, "I have a wild boar. Could you please take it and sell it? I'll give you half the money."
