The Scholar Collects Debt

Li Xin instantly thought of a character based on the stall owner's description.

But there are too few clues, and the possibility of misunderstandings is high.

So he asked: "What does the female ghost look like? Is she beautiful?"

As soon as he said this, Bai Zhantang and the stall owner looked at him at the same time, with some scrutiny in their eyes.

"Ahem, I'm just curious. I definitely don't have any special hobbies in that area."

Li Xin quickly explained.

"The female ghost was extremely fast. She flashed past suddenly. It was at night. How could I see clearly? I was almost scared to death. Who would have the mood to pay attention to whether the female ghost is beautiful or not."

The stall owner said, without completely putting away the scrutiny in his eyes.

"Brother Li, you are now old enough. It's time to find a wife. I'll talk to the shopkeeper when you get back and ask her to help you keep an eye on her and find a suitable one."

Li Xin suggested.

If the contrast is too strong, you will feel that your woman's charm has been insulted, which will lead to irritation.

"If you don't want to sell it, where can you buy such good and cheap jewelry?"

"Yang Huilan's competition to recruit a bride? You, you...!"

"Why, I paid for this."

Anyone who goes up must pay a registration fee of two dollars.

Of course, secretly, she thought that the other party liked her, but she didn't know that he was here to collect a debt.

Li Xin did not go directly to Tongfu Inn, but said he was going to pick up Qingwen. He went to a deserted alley alone and summoned her out.

"Yes, that's what I think too. If you buy real things from the shopkeeper, she won't appreciate it anyway, so you might as well just pick a fake and fool her and be done with it."

"You might as well go grab it!"

"Isn't it just two coins? As for chasing me for it? He also pestered me and gave me all kinds of hints. I couldn't understand it. I thought he was deliberately trying to please me. I also thought he took out the hairpin and gave it to me.

Yeah, who knew it was a misunderstanding?"

She indeed forgot about borrowing money.

Bai Zhantang smiled and found a reason for himself not to spend money.

Bai Zhantang has not yet thoroughly inquired about the source.

“You can sell it back to me again!”

As Bai Zhantang expected, when the two returned to Qixia Town, it was almost the time for dinner.

"My aunt can't bear it anymore! Give me back the hairpin!"

"Brother Bai, how about I lend you some first?"

It turns out that just like in the original play, his front teeth were knocked out.

Li Xindao.

"Then what should I do? Aren't you going to bring a gift to Shopkeeper Tong? Or buy something cheaper?"

Two secret books were enough for him to practice for a long time.

When I heard the voice, it was Lu Xiucai.

The scholar continued to cry and howl, even louder.

Although there was a gap between the initial goal and the goal, he still came back with a full load.

Li Xin naturally agreed.

"If that doesn't work, don't you know Aunt Cai? She specializes in being a matchmaker for people. She has a wide range of connections, and she can get people from low-level families to high-level ones."

Li Xin understood after observing Lu Xiucai.

Bai Zhantang patted Li Xin on the shoulder and said solemnly.

The two of them lived in the same room, and Guo Furong did what she did without hiding it from her.

The scholar had been howling for a while, so she had to do the accounting.

No need to guess, the one who did it must be Guo Furong.

Before Guo Furong could use her arms well, she resorted to her martial arts skills to do mischief.

Bai Zhantang shook his head, stood up from the position where he had been squatting in front of the stall, kicked his legs and everything was fine.

After wandering around for a while, Bai Zhantang picked out a fake antique hairpin. After haggling for a while, he bought it for eight cents.

"What's wrong? Who bullied the scholar?"

If it were Li Xin, his legs would be completely numb and he would fall down when he stood up.

After shopping, even though it was still early, Bai Zhantang had no intention of shopping anymore.

…

Guo Furong was also aggrieved.

The most important thing is bullying his own people, which he can't stand.

Li Xin was ashamed and refused.

Later, when she found out the truth, she became a little angry and used too much force during the struggle, accidentally knocking out the scholar's front teeth.

No wonder Bai Zhantang is angry.

"How dare you say that! Who told you not to pay back the money you owe? The scholar asked you to pay the debt, did you make the mistake of paying it back?"

So, the two of them first went back to a certain two stalls that they had memorized before and bought the secret books of "Mandarin Duck Legs" and "Lying on the Ground", which were verified to be correct.

He was at the counter, crying so hard that his voice became hoarse.

Yang Huilan is so diligent in recruiting women through martial arts, not only to find men, but also to make money.

"No need, I'm not in a hurry."

"Mom ah ah ah!"

"Mom ah ah ah!"

"Twelve!"

The master and the servant walked back to the inn together. Before they even stepped through the door, they heard someone crying and howling.

After ending the topic, Bai Zhantang started bargaining with the stall owner again.

As for blind dates and matchmaking, there will always be excuses when the time comes.

Guo Furong said to Tong Xiangyu.

As long as Bai Zhantang doesn't reveal his secrets, he is indeed likely to be fooled.

Bai Zhantang seemed to have completely misunderstood.

"Don't blame the child. It's not that the child is unfilial, it's just that he is unable to do what he wants!"

Bai Zhantang already understood what happened and stared at Guo Furong.

"It's the registration fee for Sister Xiao Guo to participate in the martial arts competition to recruit a bride."

Guo Furong was uncomfortable with his glare and forcefully defended herself.

Bai Zhantang has found the root of the disaster last time.

"If you're not in a hurry, let's look around first. There's nothing wrong with taking the time to go on a blind date, so that you won't have to think about a female ghost."

"Who else could it be? Xiao Guo took advantage of someone's hairpin by a clever trick, and instead of cherishing it properly, he sold it to the shopkeeper in exchange for money."

…

Li Xin thought about it and realized that Tong Xiangyu really didn't know how to deal with various kinds of jewelry and couldn't tell the difference between genuine and fake jewelry.

Bai Zhantang's tone seemed very stern.

Perhaps I couldn't stand the noise, as there weren't many guests in the inn.

No one else in the inn understood either.

"Hey, please make a price!"

"Also, it's not like I want to exchange it for money. It's the scholar who forced me to ask for money. I don't have any money, so I have to sell the hairpin."

Li Xin asked after coming in.

"Come on, it's almost time to go back. If you walk faster, you can still catch up with dinner."

Mo Xiaobei interjected from the side.

Tong Xiangyu said while keeping accounts.

"No, I can't afford to pay you back, so let's forget it."
