C36 Reunion

"Hmph, no way. If I pity you, who would pity us? If you don't obediently take it out, then don't blame us for being impolite, laozi's patience is limited. " A man said fiercely.

The other said impatiently, "Don't waste your breath with her. We can just snatch her away. I don't believe that a little girl like her can do anything to us."

Mo Xiaoyan fearfully hugged the bag of silver tightly. Right now, all she could do was to rely on her luck.

Therefore, Mo Xiaoyan raised her voice and shouted with all her might: "Help, help! Someone is trying to kill us!"

Just as he shouted, one of the men immediately used his hand to cover Mo Xiaoyan's mouth.

"Ol 'Three, hurry up and grab the silver taels from the girl's arms. Take advantage of the moment when no one is around to make a move." The man ordered in a flustered manner.

Mo Xiaoyan was germaphobic, and when the man used her hands to cover her mouth, Mo Xiaoyan felt so disgusted that she was about to puke.

But now that his life and money were being threatened, he did not think about it anymore. Seeing the silver being snatched away, Mo Xiaoyan felt helpless.

Just as they were about to run after receiving the silver coins, a young man in white clothes pointed at their acupoints with a speed so fast that they could not be seen.

Mo Xiaoyan was naturally very happy to see that someone had finally saved him, and was also very grateful to that person.

The youth took the silver and handed it over to Mo Xiaoyan, and said coldly: "When you're alone outside, it's best if your money is not leaked out easily, or else you will bring disaster upon yourself. "I just happened to see it today. I might not even have the luck to see it in the future."

Mo Xiaoyan looked at the youth in front of him. She felt that she was very familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before, but she just couldn't recall where.

Since the person in front of him had saved him, Mo Xiaoyan had to thank him as well out of politeness.

He looked at the people who were frozen and said, "Thank you so much for what you did just now. If you didn't help me, perhaps the silver I earned would have been taken away by them."

"Mm, I was just passing by, that's all. In the future, young lady, you should be more alert when you go out by yourself."

After saying that, without waiting for Mo Xiaoyan to finish speaking, the youth left, leaving Mo Xiaoyan in a daze.

When he suddenly regained his senses and saw the few motionless people beside him, he ran as fast as he could to the place where there were many people.

Mo Xiaoyan looked around and saw a place that sold pork. It had been a few days since she last ate meat, and every day, she ate food that was not oily. Seeing that Mo Xiaoyan was no longer able to walk on the road, she went to buy meat first.

"Uncle, how much is this pork?" Mo Xiaoyan walked closer to ask.

"Little girl, are you going to be fat or skinny?"

Mo Xiaoyan, a soul that came from the modern world, would definitely like to eat meat that's thin. The ancients seemed to like to eat meat that's fat, especially for the poor families, because fat meat is extremely oily, so they all thought it was delicious.

He pointed at the meat and asked, "How much is this meat?"

"Oh, you're thinner, so it's cheaper. Ten gold coins for a catty, and fifteen gold coins for a catty." The pork seller said.

"Then give me a kilogram of fat."

Hearing that Mo Xiaoyan wanted two catties, the owner was naturally happy. He cut it skillfully with a knife, weighed it, and gave it to Mo Xiaoyan.

This time, Mo Xiaoyan had learnt her lesson, and did not dare to show off her silver, only reaching into the bag to slowly search for coins.

There was a total of 25 copper coins. Mo Xiaoyan fumbled for a long time before she was able to count them, she embarrassedly smiled and handed the copper coins over to the owner.
