Chapter 241 - Good Bargainer

Xu Qing didn’t say anything.

“How about eight pieces of gold?” The vendor lowered the price again and again! He was a little anxious. Seeing that Xu Qing still didn’t react, he finally made up his mind. “Five pieces of gold! It really can’t be any less!”

“A piece of gold!” Xu Qing shook her finger.

“I’ll suffer a huge loss!” The vendor looked like he was about to cry.

“According to my price, I’ll take as much as you have!” Xu Qing said nonchalantly.

The merchant’s sorrowful expression instantly faded and he became excited. “I still have more than twenty! I’ll wrap them all up for you!”

Xu Qing raised her eyebrows. The vendor agreed so readily? Could it be that she had suffered a loss?

However, what Xu Qing didn’t know was that these 20 pocket watches were brought by overseas people to trade with the Green Mountain Nation, but before they could reach the Green Mountain Nation, they encountered pirates and the pocket watches were sold.

Xu Qing said to the stunned Xun Fen in a sweet voice, “Hubby, let’s buy them all. Give me the money.”

Xun Fen was even more dumbfounded. The children at the side were also stunned. This was the first time they had seen Xu Qing bargain. The price of fifty gold coins had been cut down to one gold coin!

Plus, what was with her expression?

Xun Fen took out the last piece of gold mechanically. It was obvious that this was all their family had.

“What a sin!” Teng Nian was the first to react and started to wail.

“This is very valuable. Mother, don’t worry about it!” Xu Qing’s eyes lit up as she impatiently stuffed the gold coin into the vendor’s hand.

The vendor chuckled. He couldn’t help but feel that this family was pitiful for having such a wife! However, as he thought about this, he didn’t stop what he was doing. He wrapped the things and handed them to Xu Qing.

It was as if he was afraid that Xu Qing would go back on her word!

After Xu Qing took the things, she pulled the others away.

After walking out of this street, Xun Fen said in admiration, “Miss, you’re really impressive!”

Xu Qing looked up proudly. Of course she was impressive!

The three children’s jaws dropped. Their mother was indeed impressive!

Xu Qing handed the wrapped pocket watches to Qiao Yi and Qiao Er, who were hiding in the dark. As Qiao Yi and Qiao Er looked at the things on their bodies, they couldn’t help but feel amused. So their master was a shopaholic. There was just one street they hadn’t shopped at…

Xu Qing didn’t care about this. The few of them strolled to the city gate. At this moment, there were already many people gathered because the envoy had entered the capital today.

Xu Qing spent much effort getting a seat. Just as she looked up, she saw a tall and handsome figure. Before Xu Qing could admire her husband’s charm, she saw Qiao Yanhui look over!

Xu Qing lowered her head in panic and even covered her face with her hand. She had makeup on, so it was impossible for Qiao Yanhui to recognize her.

Xu Qing immediately looked up, but Qiao Yanhui’s gaze was still on her. The longer Xu Qing stared at her, the more guilty she felt. When she saw a hint of menace in Qiao Yanhui’s eyes, she lowered her head.

How could Qiao Yanhui recognize her? There were so many people around, but he recognized her at a glance!

Qiao Yanhui gave the people in the dark a look. Two dark figures hurriedly walked towards Xu Qing to protect her and the others!

Xu Qing was helpless and could only leave with the children. They went to another place to stroll around.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd. Someone accidentally pushed them and they tripped. After one of them fell, all the people in the front fell. This pushed Xu Qing and the others, who were standing at the front, into the middle of the road.

Xu Qing didn’t know that her appearance made a certain person, who was about to leave, stop in his tracks. His eyes were quivering, and his expression cracked. His fair and slender fingers couldn’t help but clench his palms tightly. Drops of blood dripped from the gaps in his palms.

The purple figure rushed towards Xu Qing.

At the same time, Qiao Yanhui carried Xu Qing back and looked at his lover in his arms with heartache.

The purple figure stopped abruptly at that moment. His eyes were filled with madness as he looked at the man and woman hugging in front of everyone.

She actually! She actually…

A red figure in the crowd seemed to sense something and locked her gaze on the purple figure.

Yi Chulin…

Deng Chengxi’s eyes were filled with longing and infatuation. No one knew how much she had missed this man all these years! But why was there so much hatred and resentment in Yi Chulin’s eyes? Who was he resenting?
