Stir up a pool of spring water

The sharp dagger started from Long Xi's cheekbone, and mercilessly cut down until it reached the corner of his mouth, a bright red bloodstain appeared.Slowly, more and more blood flowed, and Long Xi's face was immediately covered with blood and flesh.

It's not that it doesn't hurt, but she didn't express any extra expressions, nor begged for mercy, she just looked at Wei Rong steadfastly.

"What do you mean by looking at me like that?" Wei Rong roared loudly, "You are the one who is now imprisoned, with such an ugly look, see who else you can hook up with! Without this face, you can't even get me Not as good!"

Long Xi didn't speak, she knew that no matter what she said, it would be useless, the two of them were people of two classes, not referring to their status, but their thinking.She didn't even bother to look at this kind of rat in the gutter.

Wei Rong was furious, and wanted to slash the knife again, ruining the other side of Long Xi's face.

At this time, there was a loud 'bang', the chaimen was pushed aside, Han Jinli rushed in, grabbed Wei Rong directly, and slapped him at Tianling Gai.Before Wei Rong could say a word, he died on the spot.

Han Jinli quickly untied Long Xi from the rope, wiped off the blood on her face with a handkerchief, and then applied the medicine.

Long Xi glanced at her indifferently, didn't speak, didn't struggle, just quietly let her pick him up, and returned to Luoxia Palace.

After returning to the palace, Xiaohongzao and Hong Momo were so frightened when they saw Longxi like this, they were in a hurry and didn't know what to do.Even if he saw Han Jinli who had come back from the dead, he would only focus on Long Xi's face after being surprised for a short time.

Xiaohongzao asked worriedly: "Won't there be scars? This... why did you go out and get your face scratched?"

Han Jinli said: "No, after the wound is healed, the scar can be erased by using Snow Lotus Jade Chan Pill."

"No need." Long Xi's voice was cold and lifeless, "It's fine to keep it, as a lesson."

Xiao Hongzao was very anxious, "Ma'am, what are you talking about, the scar on your face is so ugly, what can you do?"

"Don't call me madam, I'm single now." Long Xi said with a smile, "I divorced her."

Little Red Date: "..."

She looked at Han Jinli helplessly, hoping she could explain, what happened?

The person who was thought to be dead, reappeared half a year later.And the person who was going to say goodbye was disfigured when he came back, and then divorced her husband by the way.

Han Jinli remained silent, and only carefully bandaged Long Xi's wound, and when Long Xi was inhaling in pain, he gently blew on her, his eyes full of pity.

Long Xi didn't move, just lay down obediently, closed his eyes, and didn't even look at her.

After treating the wound, Han Jinli stood up and said softly, "Take a good rest."

After saying that, he closed the door and called out Xiaohongzao and Hong Momo.

After everyone left, Long Xi opened his eyes, stared blankly at the familiar environment, and then fell asleep in a daze.

Woke up again at night with a headache from too much sleep.

She called Xiao Hongzao, "Go and pack your bags, we are going to leave."

Xiaohongzao was puzzled, "Holy Master is not dead, madam, why do you still want to leave? Wouldn't it be good for the two of you to live a good life? Why don't you talk about divorce, madam, I think you are just too idle to mess around."

Long Xi smiled wryly and shook his head, "You don't understand a lot of things, so it's useless to tell you, go and pack your luggage."

Xiao Hongzao wanted to say something, but in the end she sighed helplessly, and obediently went to pack her luggage.

By the time all the luggage was packed, it was already late at night.

After taking the package, Long Xi called Xiao Hongzao and Hong Momo, "Let's go."

Hong Momo didn't know what happened, her frightened little hands tightly grabbed Long Xi's clothes and followed her.Tears streamed down Xiao Hongzao's face, she turned her head every step, but still left with Long Xi.

Qing Yi anxiously asked Han Jinli for instructions: "My lord, why didn't you stop me?"

Han Jinli shook her head, "She is angry now, the more you stop her, the more she will rebel, let her go, wait for her anger to subside. You take someone to protect in secret, and report to me if there is anything."

"Yes." Qing Yi took the order, and his figure instantly disappeared into the night, following Long Xi.

In fact, Long Xi didn't know where he was going after leaving the palace, so he just walked along the pipeline until dawn, and found an inn in the city to stay temporarily.

After a simple dinner, she asked the innkeeper where she could rent a house.

The shopkeeper recommended several places to her, Long Xi compared them, found a small courtyard and rented them.The decoration of the yard is relatively simple, but fortunately, it is still quiet.A few bamboos were planted in the yard, which added elegance.

After looking around, Long Xi nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad."

Xiaohongzao looked at her in fear, there was something wrong with Longxi's current appearance.If it was said that when she heard the news of Han Jinli's death, she was distraught, but now it is more like she is more sad than heartbroken.She also didn't know why Long Xi became like this when she came back from Zichen Palace.

The current Long Xi behaves as usual and still laughs, but his smile is no longer as lively as before.In the past, her smile was sweet, with a hint of unconscious charm, which made people yearn for it when they saw it.But now, she is still smiling like that, but it only makes people feel that it is a corpse laughing, laughing so creepily.

After settling down in the courtyard, Long Xi changed Hong Momo's clothes, patted her little face lightly, and said, "Don't worry, Momo, even though you left there, Mother will not let you go hungry." Yes, I'm a money maker."

Although she is not good at martial arts, she knows how to do business. It's not impossible to start over, it's just a little harder.But she is not afraid of this kind of hard work. She has experienced too much in her short twenty-odd years in her life. This little bit of hard work now makes her feel extremely at ease.

Maybe this is life?In this way, there is no sorrow or joy, and I will live the rest of my life safely.

On the second day, she asked Xiao Hongzao to take care of Hong Momo at home, while she went for a walk on the street to see if there was any small business she could do.

After shopping around, relying on her keen business sense, she came up with a new way to make money—making beads.

It's not that there are no such things, but they are basically made by jewelry craftsmen, and most of them use expensive materials.Ordinary people seldom come into contact with these things. When they want them, they buy them from jewelry craftsmen, but there are also few people who buy them, basically dignitaries.

And the bead string that Long Xi wanted to make was to use stones with the same crystal clear color but much lower value than ordinary gems.For her stuff, she doesn't have high requirements on the quality of the stone, but pays attention to ingenuity and matching.

She herself is clumsy, but it doesn't matter, she can let a girl with dexterity do it.

Without hesitation, Long Xi went to the ore market to browse first. The ore with average quality and not called gemstones was basically ignored by no one, or it was used as building materials.Long Xi bought them all at a low price, and then hired a craftsman to turn these stones into small beads of different sizes, leaving a thin slit in the middle for stringing.

After preparing the raw materials, she and Xiao Hongzao made a few styles overnight, and even Hong Momo helped to make a few, of course for her child's aesthetic, but Long Xi also kept them.

Another day later, Long Xi found a shop at the end of the street, and it officially opened after setting off firecrackers.The store area is large, but because it is on the corner of the street, the rent is not very expensive.

Long Xi's face was scratched, but she was born beautiful and hard to give up on. Although the scar on her face was a pity, the other half of her face was still flawless. Coupled with her graceful figure and distinctive demeanor, Still attracts countless crowds of onlookers.

She showed the onlookers the small beads embroidered on her hands, neck, and body.

Long Xi's craftsmanship is average, but she has passed the test of aesthetics. After wearing those colorful beads on her body, not only is she not tacky, but she reveals a compelling beauty, making her look even more elegant and incomparable. .

After introducing these, she said: "Today, we will open a big bargain. Each person can choose a hundred beads at will, string them into a style you like in our store, and take them away as long as you pay ten Wen. As for the extra beads , also at half price."

As soon as these words came out, several girls were eager to try. They all thought that the clothes on Long Xi's body were beautiful, and they looked very simple, so they should be able to be made.Moreover, ten pennies is not expensive, and you can basically afford it.

So many people poured into Longxi's shop.

Long Xi would not refuse anyone who came, and let them choose the beads they like by themselves.

Each kind of beads is placed in a basket, and hundreds of baskets are lined up in a circle, and the girls are having a great time picking them.

After someone has finished picking, they start to sit down and skewer.

Most of them know how to embroider, and they are naturally ingenious, so stringing beads is not difficult for them.The shop has already prepared tables and stools in several rows, and the customers sit down one by one and start working on their favorite works.

Long Xi took a look, then went out to continue inviting customers, took the beads strung by Hong Momo to display, and fooled the parents with children, let them have fun with the children, and attracted a group of customers, there are already sitting in the shop It's packed to the brim.

Although ten Wen is not much, but in fact they picked a hundred beads, the cost was less than five Wen, and after deducting the rent of the shop, Long Xi still made money.And there are other extra ones to buy. According to the price of three for one penny, many people with spare money are willing to buy them. After all, these beads are crystal clear and really beautiful.

Soon it was noon, Long Xi checked that there were quite a lot of copper plates in the box, she asked Xiao Hongzao to buy lunch, and started eating in the shop.There were fewer customers for a long time at noon, but it's okay, people will continue to come in the afternoon.

In fact, this string of beads is just her start-up business, and this is definitely not what she wants to do in the future. After all, this thing is too easy to be imitated, and it is still a bit difficult to make a fortune from this.

As for what to do in the future, she hasn't made up her mind yet, but she is not worried, as long as she uses her brain, she will never die of hunger.

After Qing Yi, who was guarding secretly, reported to Han Jinli what Long Xi had done during this period, Han Jinli sighed helplessly.

"The small business is booming."

But it's still unavoidable that she feels distressed. She is a cold person, and it is not too much to ask for gold and silver, but now she has to work hard every day for these few pennies.I don't know how long she will be gambling with this anger, so don't tire yourself out.
