Chapter 220 My Wallet is Missing
Chapter 220 My Wallet is Missing
Every time I hear something particularly wonderful, it lights up.
She has finished telling the story of Ghost Blows Out the Light, and next she plans to tell the fantasy series. In the past, her favorite novels were fantasy and farming novels.
There are too many fantasy novels. Naitang walked around outside and brought back two purses from somewhere. The flowers embroidered on one of the purses were quite beautiful.
Mrs. Bai looked at the purse and said:
"This pattern is quite nice, Qiao Niang. Look at this embroidery method, it's chain stitch. After starting the needle, wrap the thread around the needle, then pass the needle through the loop and tighten it to form a chain-like stitch.
The lines of the chain embroidery are very elastic, so even if the purse is squeezed during use, the embroidery pattern will not easily deform.
"So that's it..."
Mrs. Bai opened her purse and saw two gold ingots, a silver ingot and some copper coins inside.
She looked at the candy and said, "I don't know where it came from. Forget it, this one of ours... just likes to drag things into the house, so let's hide it!"
Lin Wanwan looked at the candy and said:
“Toffee, not everyone’s things can be dragged away, you know?
Some people have a hard time, and it would be bad if you steal these things and end up killing them."
Toffee licked his paw and said, "Squeak, squeak, squeak..."
Milk tea translated: "Lin Dasheng...Lin Dasheng..."
Lin Wanwan blinked and said, "You mean this thing belongs to Lin Dasheng, but where's the purse? It can't be that Bai Lianhua's, right?"
"White Lotus... White Lotus..."
"Naitang, you did a great job. I've disliked that woman for a long time." Lin Wanwan said with a smile, "Then today I will tell you about the story of a mortal's journey to immortality!"
All the animals sat down obediently, and Lin Wanwan began to talk.
She spoke for more than half an hour and was so tired that she said, "I'm not going to talk anymore. I'm tired..."
The pacifier growled softly and then went to sleep. They found a hut today and lit a charcoal fire. The charcoal fire was quite warm in winter.
Firewood alone would be of little use, but with charcoal it would be much better. In addition, everyone had thick quilts and cotton clothes on, so the group was not very cold.
Lao Tian, Mr. Bai, and Lin Fugui discussed the next itinerary in a low voice.
Lin Fugui said:
"It will take another two to three months to reach Bianjing. It depends on the itinerary. Do you feel it?
People here are living a much better life now, and it’s rare to see people dying.”
Master Bai stroked his beard and said, "That's true, but the drought here is still severe, so we can't take it lightly.
I’m also afraid that the drought will get worse next year, which would make things even more difficult. Many people would die, and then Bianjing would be the safest place.”
Lin Fugui nodded and said, "I won't be afraid once we get to Bianjing. I know a few people here and there, from all walks of life."
"I also know some people, and they are all good at fighting." The guard said softly.
"Huh? You know how to fight?" Master Bai looked at him.
"Yes, everyone I know knows how to fight. I used to work for an escort agency, and after I learned some, I was noticed by my former master." He sighed and said, "It's all about making a living."
Master Bai laughed and said, "We'll talk about it when we get to Bianjing! No one knows what's going to happen next."
In fact, Master Bai was not sure about the situation either, and he was just taking things one step at a time. It was not an easy task to enter Bian Jing.
The next day, Bai Qian got up shyly and said, "Husband, let's get up..."
Lin Dasheng looked at her and smiled faintly:
"Oh! I don't know what happened to the two children.
Especially Lin Zaozao, I don’t know if she was noisy or not last night, I have to go check on her.”
Bai Qian was stunned for a moment and said, "Doesn't Zao Zao have a mother? Why are you the one who has been taking care of her the whole time?"
Lin Dasheng smiled and said, "She is a blessing. I feel at ease when she is around."
He touched his purse out of habit, and suddenly his expression changed: "Where's my...my purse? Where's my purse? Did you take it?"
Bai Qian was speechless and said helplessly, "What do I need your purse for?"
"There are three taels of silver in there..." This was what Lin Dasheng had saved along the way.
Bai Qian sighed and said, "Why would I need your purse? I have gold in my purse!"
She subconsciously touched her purse, but was suddenly stunned:
"Oh no, my purse is missing too. What the hell is going on? Wuuwuwu...
I have ten ounces of gold in it."
Dingxiang and Chenxiang rushed in. Chenxiang asked, "Miss, what's wrong? Did he bully you?"
Bai Qian looked at her and said:
"My purse is missing, look for it quickly, how could it be possible?
Last night it was just me and...Lin Dasheng, how come he disappeared?!"
Dingxiang was also anxious. This was their guarantee for the road ahead, but she couldn't find the purse after searching for several rounds.
Lin Dasheng didn't know what to do when he heard Lin Zaozao crying. He walked over, picked up Lin Zaozao from the flatbed cart and said, "Maybe I didn't hold Zaozao last night, so my wallet is empty."
Bai Qian rolled her eyes and said, "Is this child really a lucky star? If he is, how could our wallets have disappeared?"
"That's because we neglected her. God is punishing us!" Lin Dasheng looked at Lin Zao Zao and said, "Qian Qian, Zao Zao is hungry. Can you feed her?"
Bai Qian nearly fainted from anger: "Now that my purse is gone, how can I have the mood to feed milk?"
Lin Dasheng watched her turn around and go to the Lin family not far away, and then fed Lin Zao Zao some rice porridge.
Sun Mei looked at Lin Dasheng and asked, "How was Second Uncle last night?"
"What could have happened last night? I lost three taels of silver..."
"What? How is this possible?"
Bai Qian also slowly walked over and said:
"My purse is missing too, I suspect it was robbed last night.
But my two guards are here, one in front and one behind, and I just can’t figure it out.”
Sun Mei took Bai Qian's hand and said, "It's lost, so it's lost. As long as the person is okay, it's good. We are all family, and we must support each other."
In fact, Sun Mei was very happy in her heart. Now she was not afraid of being suppressed by Bai Qian.
Bai Qian nodded quickly and said:
"Good sister, you are really good, when I get home, I will make sure to arrange everything for you.
It will be easy for you to take the exam to become a scholar when the time comes, as our clan has a special school for that.”
Sun Mei was extremely satisfied: "Bai Qian, if you have any questions, just ask. You can live with us from now on so we can take care of each other, okay?"
Chenxiang's face was full of displeasure. You know, if they didn't live together, she only needed to serve Bai Qian and the children, but if they lived together, she would have to serve her whole family.
