In fact, this room is not much warmer than the snow cave, on the contrary, it still has air leakage. The only difference is that it feels more secure. Living here will not freeze to death.

Faint light, shaking gently, the three big fools had been leaning together for a long time, drowsy, Yuan Xi took off his cold coat and was about to lift the quilt to go to bed, when he heard footsteps outside, Then the three big fools in the room woke up instantly and rushed outside.

But the door has been closed, they can only arch the door, and then look back at Yuan Xi.

"Don't bark." Yuan Xi looked back at Aunt Liu who had opened his eyes, and said softly, "It seems that someone is coming, I'll go and have a look."

Aunt Liu lowered her eyelids, "Be careful."

"Okay." Opening the door, suddenly a gust of cold wind blew in, shrunk his body, and by the dim light, Yuan Xi saw that the Chinese-speaking man he met today had already arrived at the door.

"Hey, so you live here, isn't this house leaky? Why don't you go live in my house and get you a good house, add some charcoal fire, and make sure it's very warm."

Yuan Xi was a little moved, but still rejected this person's kindness, "No need, I'm fine here. Are you talking about slippery wood?"

"Yes," the man rubbed his hands, with a smile on his face, "Well, there is no problem with a hundred wooden slides, and the price of 2000 taels is also suitable, but the place over there is too far away, and you will have to go to Youzhou again by then. , We still have to go with a lot of people, and once we come and go, the cost of this journey will be a lot, so the price of wooden skis is easy to say, but the price of manpower, do you see?"

Yuan Xi's expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly: "Tell me, how much do you want?"

The man's eyes flickered, as if suspicious, and he gritted his teeth for the last time, "5000 taels, what do you think?"

Yuan Xi's face changed slightly, "Brother, do you dare to ask for 5000 taels? Have you never seen the money?"

The man's face also changed, and he said displeasedly: "I'm saving you, I admit that the money is too much, but we braved the snow that is rare in a hundred years to bring it to you, and we deserve credit for it." , counting it, it’s still saved your fate, otherwise it’s just us. You definitely have no way to go back, don’t you think so?”

"Three thousand!" Yuan Xi chopped down two thousand.

The man showed shock, then shook his head, "No, five thousand, we have discussed it, otherwise it will not be easy to divide."

Yuan Xi said angrily: "Don't be too greedy, three thousand is enough for you to earn for a lifetime."

The man laughed and said: "It's rare to have this opportunity. If people are not greedy, how can they make a fortune."

Yuan Xi suddenly laughed and said, "Although the officers promise a thousand gold, you are brave enough to give away our wealth."

The man said hesitantly: "Not to mention anything else, our general is quite good, we are going to send you off, the whole village, everyone over there knows that you must not deal with us, otherwise we will not come back , or if you don’t want money, if the general knows about the consequences, I think you will also know the consequences.”

"That's fine, four thousand." Yuan Xi said lightly: "Any more points will not work, I have already doubled it for you."

The man was embarrassed for a while, and finally smiled reluctantly: "Well, I will go back and discuss with them. I may come later tomorrow. If possible, I will send someone to inform you, and then I will take people to find the wooden slide. This thing It’s tiring to have to borrow it.”

"Well, I see, you go, I'm sorry to trouble you." After Yuan Xi finished speaking, he entered the room without looking back.

The man looked at Yuan Xi's back, then at the four idiots staring at him, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he turned and left.

Yuan Xi went into the house, but Aunt Liu hadn't fallen asleep yet.

Yuan Xi sat on the bed and touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed. Before, Aunt Liu would pretend to go to bed first to cover up the embarrassment of the two of them, but she didn't expect to go to bed today.

"Xianyi, come up." Yuan Xi scribbled under the bed for a while, then Aunt Liu said.

"Hey," Yuan Xi took a deep breath, knowing that she should have something to say to herself, otherwise she wouldn't stay asleep, "Gu Gu, just now that person from this morning was outside, and he came to raise my price."

"Price increase?" Aunt Liu lifted a corner of the quilt, let Yuan Xi lie on it, and said, "How much do they want?" The previous two thousand was enough, and if you dare to raise the price, it's a way of making money from the government. Let her very startled.

"Four thousand, originally five thousand, man, I'm really greedy, as long as I can make money, I dare to take any risk, no matter who I am, I dare to threaten." Yuan Xi said with a smile, there was no fear on his face.

After Yuan Xi lay down, he was facing upwards, and Aunt Liu was sleeping next to him, and he was also facing upwards at this time, both of them consciously left a little space.

"Four thousand is too much." Liu Gu said softly, "This is a big opening, so aren't you afraid that the government will retaliate against them?"

"Be confident." Yuan Xi said with a smile: "Forget it, let's not talk about this, we may set off tomorrow, so it's better to be careful on the way, I don't think these people are good birds."

Chapter 769 Weird Atmosphere

"It's not a good person, how dare Xian Yi be with them?" Aunt Liu glanced at Yuan Xi and smiled softly.

"I'm not a good person." Yuan Xi thought of what happened in Shitou Village, and sighed in his heart. He always claimed to be kind, but when some things were right in front of his eyes, he realized that kindness was only relative. In other words, there is also a range...

"If Xianyi wasn't a good person, there would be no good people in the world."

Yuan Xi smiled and said, "Gu Gu, you think too highly of me. There are no real good people in a vassal state like us. They are all just each other."

Aunt Liu moved down slightly, put the quilt on her neck, and said in a low voice: "There is never a very precise definition of a good person and a bad person. In our opinion, Xianyi is a good person, and that is a good person, but it has nothing to do with people." .”

"Am I really a good person?" Yuan Xi turned his head with burning eyes.

Aunt Liu took a look at him, then quickly lowered her head, Xia Fei's cheeks.

Yuan Xi suddenly became short of breath, and shy women are undoubtedly the most attractive.

Busily took a deep breath, his heart was so dangerous, he almost jumped on it without control, and became a real beast.

Aunt Liu glanced at Yuan Xi secretly, with a smile on her face, and said softly: "I used to have a lot of resistance to marrying a few girls, but I also married you later. I'm a little unhappy, but these days, I suddenly understand that maybe it's a good choice for them to marry you, at least they all married someone they like."

Yuan Xi suddenly thought of Zhen Jiang, glanced at Aunt Liu, turned his head slightly, and asked, "How did you and the old man meet, Aunt Liu?"

"Tell him," Aunt Liu said with a complex look in her eyes, "Actually, it's nothing, it's just a simple marriage. Rong'er was still young at that time, and my family also encountered some situations. Coincidentally, we came together."

"Do you like the old man?" Yuan Xi rubbed his nose and asked a question that even he himself felt embarrassed.

"Like it?" Aunt Liu was stunned for a moment, looked up at Yuan Xi, then lowered her head and said in a low voice, "I don't know if I like it or not, but I am very grateful to him. Without him, I would have died long ago. These years, I have lived a very good life in Zhen's family, all five daughters treat me like their own mother, as a woman, I already feel very satisfied."

"What happened to your family at that time?" Yuan Xi asked involuntarily.

Liu Gu raised her head, her eyebrows were picturesque, "Does Xian Yi really want to hear it?"

"Well, I want to hear it. Anyway, I'm idle, so it's good to talk."

"Actually, it's nothing. It's just an old story. Master and I are considered distant relatives. At that time, when something happened at home, my father asked the master for help, and the eldest lady was new, so I just married by chance."

"Where are your parents?" Liu Gu and Zhen Yu are very different, from Yuan Xi's point of view, Liu Gu's parents are probably not as old as Zhen Yu, or about the same.

"It's gone. It wasn't long after I was married. I lost my family." Speaking of this, Aunt Liu's face was full of complexities, and she sighed softly: "So the master is the one I want to thank for the rest of my life. , He is very kind to me, and he is very polite to me. When he is about to die, he still thinks about my future. Speaking of which, although my life is mediocre, I am content."

Yuan Xi was clear, and barely understood the cause and effect of the incident. Unfortunately, there is really no way to avenge her now. After such a long time, it is a problem that even Zhen Yu can't solve. It is estimated that he must run away, so what is waiting for him? to clean up.

Yuan Xi smiled and said: "Let him get over the past. If this is a peaceful and prosperous age, I must be a playboy. I think this kind of life is suitable for me."

Liu Gu smiled, "Although Xianyi is romantic, it doesn't mean he is incompetent. Gaozu was also very romantic, and in the end he overthrew Great Qin and established the Han Dynasty."

Yuan Xi smiled, and said cheekily: "So, I, you and he are much better off. I can't do it if he abandons his wife and children again and again. It seems that a new dynasty can be established in the future."

Liu Gu shook her head, turned her head, looked at the roof and said, "Actually, Xian Yi also learns from Gao Zu's point."

"Which point?" Yuan Xi asked.

"Ruthless." Liu Gu said: "Only those who are ruthless can achieve great things, and will not always be dragged down by their children's private affairs. Although Gaozu is lustful, he is ruthless. He is really ruthless in his heart, children can be thrown away, and heroes can be killed. Xian Yi can't even do it, can he?"
