Yan Qianxu also came back to reality slowly, but he did not explain anything and just looked at her with a smile.

Since he had decided to interact more with her, there were some things that would be exposed sooner or later, so she might as well face them straightforwardly. In her heart, Ji Shuangshuang was not a bad person, rather, she was someone he wanted to get close to.

He trusted her. He was willing to reveal his true nature to her, and once he spoke, the two of them would be able to easily resolve the problem of how inconvenient it was to communicate with each other.

Ji Shuangshuang had thought that Yan Qianxu had some sort of secret on him a long time ago, but she never would have thought that the first secret would actually surprise her.

Looks like Yan Qianxu was really deliberately concealing it in the past.

So what was his purpose? Ji Shuangshuang still couldn't understand.

The only thing that could be exposed was the trust Yan Qianxu had placed in her. She could not let down this trust, and would help Yan Qianxu keep this secret.

"Eldest brother, don't worry. I'm the most righteous person here and I won't tell anyone about this."

Yan Qianxu smiled and shook his head, "No worries, I think that in a while, everyone in the village will know what I can talk about."

He already had a plan, and it was only a few days ahead of schedule.

This was the first time Ji Shuangshuang had seen an expression other than ice on her face, "Xu, you're so good-looking, you should smile more usually."

Yan Qianxu's expression stiffened, as he regretted exposing himself in front of her. He could only harden his face and glare at her, but scaring Ji Shuangshuang now was completely useless.

Yan Qianxu could only change the topic and talk about the batch of medicinal ingredients.

"I've already gotten you those medicinal ingredients. The other party said that they are all good medicinal ingredients from deep in the mountains." But I've never been in the medicinal herb business before, and I didn't know the price was unreasonable. If you have any questions, just let me know and I'll help you solve them. "

With that, Yan Qianxu opened the bag and took out the silver taels that he had bought from the herbs in the town.

Ji Shuangshuang kept the silver without even looking at it. Although she didn't know Yan Qianxu's background, she knew his character.

If Yan Qianxu wasn't trustworthy, she wouldn't have let him help her sell the medicinal herbs.

After handing over the primers, Yan Qianxu did not leave right away. Instead, he took out two small bags and placed them on the table.

His movements were still as fast as ever. In a few steps, he disappeared from the room and returned to his icy cold appearance.

Ji Shuangshuang looked outside. There was no activity in the rooms of the Lady Huang, Old Granny and the others.

She closed the door again and picked up the two small bags that Yan Qianxu had given her.

"Elder sister, what is this thing?" When he saw his elder sister receive the silver from Yan Qianxu, Xiaoqiu almost cried out in excitement.

Now that he saw the two small bags, he thought they contained silver taels as well.

"What's the rush? Why don't you just open it and take a look?" Ji Shuangshuang poked her forehead and started to untie the rope on the bag.

After opening it, both Ji Shuangshuang and Xiaoqiu were stunned, staring at the thing in their hands in a daze.

What was in the bag was snow white flour. Ji Shuangshuang immediately knew that the other bag should be rice.

It must be because she mentioned that the Lady Huang didn't leave any food for her and Xiaoqiu, and the two sisters often starved to death. She didn't expect Yan Qianxu to remember this in his heart, and now she had even brought this with them.

"Sister, it's White Face!" Xiaoqiu was pleasantly surprised.

The living conditions of Ji Family in the village were of the upper middle class, but they couldn't be eaten easily either. They could only be eaten during festive or harvest seasons.

As for Ji Shuangshuang and her sister, she didn't even dare to think about them.

Ji Shuangshuang's heart was moved, he touched Xiaoqiu's head, "That's right, it's a white mask, the white mask Xu gave us!"

had never been so kind to anyone before. Now that he was being so careful and attentive to the two sisters, it made Ji Shuangshuang feel a little touched.

With the sales of the medicinal herbs, as usual, Ji Shuangshuang would go up the mountain during the day to chop firewood and cut down the pig grass, and when the time came to pick the medicinal herbs, she would temporarily keep them in her own little dark room.

After returning home in the evening, she made a simple shelf with all sorts of medicinal herbs neatly placed on it. She then placed it in a dry and cool place to store it for a long time.

Suddenly, the sound of a gong sounded from outside. Ji Shuangshuang did not know what was going on outside and continued to fiddle with the medicinal herbs.

Xiaoqiu ran in and stopped her, "Sister, hurry up and stop it, we need to go to the Village Chief's house!"

"Why are we going to the Village Head's house?" Ji Shuangshuang did not understand.

"Elder sister, did you forget again? As soon as the gong and drums rang out, everyone in the village must immediately go to the Village Head's house for a meeting. There is an urgent matter to be announced. "

"It's that urgent?"

"That's right!" Something big must have happened, let's hurry up and go. " Xiaoqiu anxiously dragged Ji Shuangshuang out of the door and rushed back to the Village Chief's house.
