Water Margin: The opening scene involves assassinating Emperor Huizong of Song and forcibly taking L

Zhao Yuan interrupted Granny Xue somewhat impatiently.

These words of praise for him

If a young girl were to say this, it would naturally have a unique charm.

But now, it's an old woman saying these things.

That would undoubtedly be a spoilsport.

Standing gracefully in the middle of the room, even though I was shivering from the cold.

Yet she still stood ramrod straight, like a delicate plum blossom in the snow.

Zhao Yuan asked,

"This is the daughter you're going to sell?"

"Yes, it's her!"

Granny Xue quickly nodded, then glared at the girl.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and kowtow to the tiger-slaying hero, Lord Zhao!"

The girl bit her lip, then let out a soft hum.

He turned his head away as if he hadn't heard what Granny Xue said.

Granny Xue felt she had lost face.

He stepped forward and grabbed the girl's arm.

He pinched her skin while cursing angrily.

"You little slut, do you know how hard it was for me to raise you? And you dare to throw a tantrum like this!"

Seeing this old woman bullying a poor, lonely girl,

Zhao Yuan naturally couldn't stand it.

He was about to speak,

Suddenly, Li Shishi's angry shout rang out from the side.

"You old hag, do you think this is your home? How dare you act so casually and presumptuously!"

Chapter 40 The girl was actually Pang Chunmei (Seeking flowers and ratings)

It turns out that Li Shishi was lying on the bed in the inner room just now.

Hearing the commotion outside,

She was curious about what the girl looked like.

He then slowly walked out, supporting himself against the wall.

But what they witnessed was the young girl being disciplined by Granny Xue.

Li Shishi's face immediately darkened.

He immediately rebuked the old matchmaker!

Granny Xue was startled by the sudden sound.

He hurriedly looked up and saw...

But all he saw was a stunningly beautiful woman glaring at him.

This old woman has been trafficking girls for years.

I've seen countless girls with all sorts of pretty faces.

Yet he had never seen a woman with such unparalleled beauty as the one before him.

They were stunned.

The girl in the thin clothes that she was holding was standing to the side.

He was also staring blankly at Li Shishi.

My mind was filled with the thought, "There really is such an ethereal and otherworldly woman in this world!"

The man next to him, Yun Ge, had met Li Shishi before.

But seeing her angry expression now, there was a strange kind of beauty to it.

I was stunned.

Only Zhao Yuan,

I had long been accustomed to Li Shishi's stunning beauty.

Seeing her come out slightly out of breath,

He rushed forward and helped her up.

"Why are you up?"

Zhao Yuan scolded, "Didn't the doctor say that you need to rest properly?"

"My dear brother, I'm just curious!"

Li Shishi said coquettishly,

He then glanced at the girl who was staring at him in a daze.

She reached out and tugged at Zhao Yuan's arm.

"Brother, let's buy this girl."

Upon hearing the word "buy",

Granny Xue immediately came to her senses and hurriedly said,

"Sir Zhao, this girl has only been with me for a few days. She's stupid and clumsy, and needs some discipline. How about I get you another one?"

"No need, she's fine."

Before Zhao Yuan could speak, Li Shishi made her decision.

"this......"

Granny Xue turned her gaze to Zhao Yuan.

"Didn't you hear? My wife said, she's the one!"

Zhao Yuan glared at the tactless old woman.

"Oh my, my wife has such good taste! Although this girl is disobedient, look at her looks and figure. When she grows up, she'll definitely be a stunning beauty!"

"Previously, many people had inquired about her, and even that Master Ximen asked me for her..."

Seeing that Zhao Yuan seemed determined to buy the girl,

Granny Xue immediately changed her tune.

The girl she just described as stupid and clumsy.

It immediately became a highly sought-after commodity that everyone was scrambling to get their hands on.

It was as if Zhao Yuan would suffer a huge loss if he didn't buy it!

"Stop beating around the bush and just tell me, how much?"

Zhao Yuan asked impatiently.

Granny Xue slowly extended two fingers.

"Stop playing games with me, just tell me how much it costs?"

Zhao Yuan said with disgust,

He had known this trick all along.

If you follow the old woman's finger and state the price,

If she sees how easily you agreed, she'll immediately change her mind.

For example, the original twenty taels could instantly become two hundred taels!

Then there will definitely be another round of unreasonable arguments!

Seeing that Zhao Yuan seemed genuinely angry,

Only then did Granny Xue remember...

The guy in front of me is the kind of person who could kill a tiger with a single punch.

She dared not play any more petty tricks.

He hurriedly said, "Twenty taels, one price!"

Zhao Yuan took two ten-tael silver ingots and tossed them to Granny Xue.

Both parties signed the contract, and from then on,

This proud young girl, as aloof as a plum blossom braving the snow.

They're from the Zhao family.

Granny Xue happily left with the silver ingot.

Yun Ge also chased after him.

They should go and claim their share.

In the guest room,

Li Shishi looked at the girl with heartache.

"Sister, come quickly into the inner room. I still have some spare winter clothes. That damned matchmaker didn't even give you an extra layer of clothing in this freezing weather. What if you catch a cold!"

The girl had just been so stubborn.

Now, faced with Li Shishi's concern, she lowered her head shyly.

He let her pull him into the inner room.

Zhao Yuan instinctively wanted to follow him inside, but was glared at by Li Shishi.

"Big Brother, what are you trying to do?"

"Shishi, I..."

Zhao Yuan gave an awkward laugh.

"Oh, right, I just wanted to ask, what's this girl's name? The matchmaker walked away too fast, I forgot to ask."

"If you want to know this girl's name, isn't it on that contract you just saw?"

Li Shishi glared at Zhao Yuan, annoyed.

They then quickly pulled the girl into the inner room.

As I went in, I casually pulled down the curtain separating the outer and inner rooms.

The two sisters were changing clothes in the inner room.

Zhao Yuan, who was outside, then took out the document.

I just wanted to get rid of that matchmaker as soon as possible.

He didn't examine the document closely either.

Now that I've picked it up and taken a look,

He was completely dumbfounded.
