Chapter 755: The Hunter Lady is the Savior of the Powerful Official 16
Afterwards, Miaomiao went to the clothing store in town again. This time, she didn't look at the cheapest discounted items, but instead looked at the more gorgeous fabrics hanging on the outermost parts.
"Show me your most expensive material."
Miaomiao placed the purse on the counter. The sound of copper coins and silver ingots colliding attracted several embroiderers to look up, while the shopkeeper's eyes lit up and he hurried forward.
"Girl, are you buying this for yourself?"
The shopkeeper was quite perceptive. Seeing that the girl was looking at the men's clothes, he asked.
"I bought this for my younger brother. He's not just any guy. He's studying at the county academy, so he has to dress better.
It’s about this high.”
Miaomiao didn't dare to talk too much nonsense, but in the original owner's memory, there were indeed one or two people in the town who went to the county to study, and it was a proud thing to talk about it.
Miaomiao raised her hand and described the height of the down-and-out young man to the shopkeeper. Although he looked only fourteen years old, he had developed quite early.
She was only about 160cm tall now, but Miaomiao felt that the poor young man was about 180cm tall, because when she carried him, his legs dragged on the ground, and he was obviously more than a head taller than her.
Oh, that's not right. When she helped him go to the toilet, it seemed that he was also walking with a hunched back, and he was taller than her.
Miaomiao did not choose the moon-white brocade that the shopkeeper suggested. She directly selected two pieces of fabric in a slightly darker color.
I thought that after this young man left, he might not take the remaining clothes with him, so I could pack them up and wear men's clothes when I go out.
Miaomiao was simply overwhelmed by her own intelligence and talent.
Fortunately, the shopkeeper was quite good at business, and these similar fabrics had ready-made clothes made by embroiderers. Miaomiao took two pieces according to the shopkeeper's estimate.
Two sets of men's ready-made clothes and matching inner wear cost Miaomiao two taels of silver, but she finally solved the problem of clothes for the young man.
He had been wearing tattered clothes for so long, and with the constant application of medicine on him, his upper body was almost completely naked.
No matter how handsome a gentleman is, his handsomeness will be reduced if he wears tattered clothes.
Not to mention that he is still a half-grown boy, who knows to cover himself with a quilt. He also knows that she is poor, so he never thought of asking her to help buy clothes.
That's great. Since you have chosen to save people, you might as well do the good deed to the end and send them off to the end.
Miaomiao folded the ready-made clothes and stuffed them into the backpack behind her. After coming out, she went to Wang the Butcher and stuffed the things he had exchanged with her into the backpack.
It wasn't until she passed by the wonton stall again that Miaomiao felt a little guilty.
Thinking of the future powerful official she had raised, he had been drinking soup and eating dry buns in her hut for several days. He was already injured, and it seemed a bit unbearable.
Of course, she would never admit that she saw the braised beef with soy sauce that the other person packed, and that it tasted much better than what she made, and she wanted to eat it.
So, when Miaomiao walked out of the town again, in addition to the 30 kilograms of glutinous rice, 10 kilograms of sweet potatoes, and five bottles of wound medicine given by Wang the butcher, her backpack also contained a package of two matching sets of clothes, half a kilogram of braised beef, a braised chicken, and a bag of osmanthus cake packed from the town.
She even gave the remaining chicken and rabbit to Wang the butcher because she had no place to put them, and exchanged them for silver and kept it with her.
Going back now feels like returning home in glory.
Of course, Miaomiao did not forget what Xiao Yunzhou told her when she came here. Every time she squatted down to tie her shoelaces or looked down at things, she carved the curved mark on the tree, the wall, and even the door of the clothing store.
These traces were scattered like spider silk in the streets and alleys that Miaomiao had been to. It shouldn't be long before she could retire and buy a property in a wealthy town with a lot of money to live in her old age.
Everything was normal at first, but when Miaomiao was leaving the town and on her way back to the village, she was stopped by someone.
Blocking the road were three tall and burly men, wearing dark clothes similar to those of the government runners, except that their belts were tied a little crookedly. They held a long white paper in their hands.
"Hey, have you seen this guy?"
These people seemed to have been standing here for a long time. The mud on their feet had dried and cracked, and the fake official uniforms they wore had marks of varying depths, obviously soaked through with sweat.
One of the big men seemed a little impatient. Seeing Miaomiao standing there hesitantly, as if not daring to move forward, he strode forward and put the painting in front of Miaomiao's face.
This group of thieves is indeed brazen enough. Perhaps they have the tacit approval of the local government, or perhaps it is just like the previous two times when Miaomiao dealt with those killers, and no one got divorced.
People don't report, officials don't investigate.
......After seeing these big men who dared to pretend to be yamen runners, Miaomiao realized how right she was doing.
In the past, she just wanted to earn some money for her retirement, but now it’s different.
Heroes emerge in troubled times. People like Xiao Yunzhou are just right to change the current situation of the Chen Kingdom, so that the people can have enough food and clothing, and no longer be coerced by evil people.
Chen Guo is more like a seriously injured and dying person. The decay of the wound will only aggravate his death. But if he can be hard-hearted and endure the pain, and clean out all the pus and dirt on his body, then there is a chance that he can turn danger into safety.
And Xiao Yunzhou is the scorching blade that was burned by fire on Chen Guo's body, and she is saving this scorching blade now.
"Are you scared silly, little lady?"
While Miaomiao was stunned, the big man became impatient and pushed Miaomiao.
"I...is this really a wanted criminal of the imperial court?
He looks better than the teacher I saw in town before.
If he is caught, can I redeem him with money?
I'm a hunter, I can support him, and if it works, I'll give some money to the officials for their wedding banquets."
Miaomiao took two steps back without leaving a trace, then looked at the man with surprise and said.
To be honest, Miaomiao is still beautiful now, especially when she smiles, which makes people's hearts beat fast.
But she was still a little different from the delicate girls that people like nowadays. Her eyes were bright, as if she was in a trance...
The man, who was originally a little affected by Miaomiao's beauty, stepped back twice when he saw her wiping the saliva from the corner of her mouth without any scruples.
