Chapter 12 Half a Jade Pendant
The heroine asked: "What's the matter?"
Li Miao said without hesitation: "Teach me martial arts."
To be honest, last night, the scene in front of him of the heroine smashing a sturdy stool away with her palm really shocked him to a certain extent, and he couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
If he had such a level of force, wouldn't the world be open to him? If he encounters those who want to kill him, there is no need to be afraid. He can be killed with just one backhand.
Thus, there is now a certain one.
Of course, if he hadn't used his golden finger to control the heroine's thoughts, he wouldn't have had the guts to say something like, 'The fish will die, the net will break the net', but he cherishes his own life.
"Teach you martial arts?"
The heroine was obviously startled, obviously not expecting that Li Miao would make such a request.
"Okay, I promise to teach you martial arts."
After some thought, the heroine finally agreed to Li Miao's request, but she was thinking that it wouldn't matter if she just taught him a few tricks.
Li Miao felt a burst of joy in her heart, and she actually began to imagine the scene of one person challenging a group of strong men, and the people eating melons exclaimed.
When he realized that the heroine was looking at him with strange eyes, Li Miao came back from his fantasy, suppressed the joy in his heart, and asked proactively: "What kind of medicinal materials do you want?"
The female hero said: "Bring me a pen and paper, I will write to you."
In a short time, the heroine had written the names of a bunch of medicinal materials on the paper given to her by Li Miao, as well as the approximate amount of each medicinal material that she needed to buy.
Li Miao: "..."
No wonder she chose to write it down. Ordinary people would not be able to remember this in a short time.
However, does she underestimate him too much?
The heroine didn't know what Li Miao was thinking, so she ordered: "Don't buy these medicinal materials in the same pharmacy, but buy them in different pharmacies. Don't buy more than two types of medicinal materials from each store."
"I know, I know."
Li Miao nodded: "It's so that people won't notice that I'm buying healing herbs."
The heroine looked at him deeply: "It's good that you know."
Then, he saw Li Miao extending his right hand towards him.
The heroine looked at Li Miao in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Li Miao said matter-of-factly: "Give me money. How can I buy things without money?"
Heroine: "..."
"You are my prisoner now."
The implication is that now your whole body is mine, and the money on your body is naturally mine as well.
Hearing this, Li Miao shrugged his shoulders: "I only have one tael of silver in my body now, and I borrowed it from others. The medicinal materials you listed for me don't look like they can be bought with just one tael of silver."
Meeting the heroine's gaze, Li Miao's eyes showed no sign of flinching.
Seeing that he was still reaching for her, the heroine frowned slightly, and then confidently said: "I have no money!"
Can you be so confident even if you don’t have money to buy things?
Li Miao looked at the heroine in surprise.
At the same time, I also don’t believe that a heroine with superb martial arts skills can have no money?
Don’t they always sneak into rich and unkind wealthy families when they have no money to do the so-called robbing the rich and giving to the poor, in order to help themselves?
The heroine couldn't help but feel a little guilty when he looked at him, and she couldn't help but said coldly: "What? Is there a problem?"
In fact, she originally had some silver on her body, but in order to repel the officers and soldiers, she threw the silver and copper plates on her body and used it as a hidden weapon.
Li Miao: "..."
How could there be no problem with this?
Li Miao spread his hands helplessly and said: "You have no money, and I have no money. Without money, I have no way to buy medicinal materials. I can't rob them, right?"
The heroine was silent, and after a while, she suddenly handed Li Miao a jade pendant and said: "The quality of this jade pendant is acceptable, and it should be worth a lot of money."
Li Miao could tell that this heroine seemed to be reluctant to part with this jade pendant.
Speaking of which, he also has a jade pendant on his body, no, to be precise, it is half a jade pendant. The quality seems to be much better than the one given by the heroine in front of him.
This half jade pendant once made Li Miao unable to help but think about it for a certain period of time.
Does this mean something? For example, if he was separated from his biological parents since childhood, this half jade pendant represents his identity, etc.
After all, this is mostly the case in TV series and novels.
......
"Master Li, are you smiling at me like this because you want to borrow money from me again?"
Seeing that Li Miao looked like the last time he asked her to borrow money, the bun-faced maid immediately guessed the reason why Li Miao came to her.
Li Miao complimented: "Miss Xing'er, you are indeed very smart. I could tell it when I first saw you."
Regarding Li Miao's compliment, the bun-faced maid pretended not to hear it at all and asked cautiously: "How much money do you want to borrow this time?"
"Ten taels of silver."
Li Miao smiled, showing her white teeth, which looked particularly bright under the sunlight.
"Ah, so many!"
The bun-faced maid let out a low cry.
Li Miao promised: "Miss Xing'er, when the monthly payment is paid next month, I promise to return the ten taels of silver to you immediately."
The bun-faced maid said quietly: "Master Li, don't you know how much your monthly salary is?"
Li Miao: "..."
Then, Li Miao said: "Then when I have saved enough ten taels of silver, I will pay it back to you together, or I can pay back some every month."
The bun-faced maid asked in confusion: "Master Li, what are you suddenly going to do that requires as much as ten taels of silver?"
Li Miao, who had already prepared his words, showed a wry smile and said: "Perhaps because of staying up late to study, my body suddenly became weak recently. I just carried a bucket of water and walked a few steps, and I was out of breath.
My face turned pale, so I planned to buy some supplements to replenish my body. Miss Xing'er, you should also know that supplements are relatively expensive."
Hearing this, the bun-faced maid subconsciously observed Li Miao.
I found that his complexion seemed to be a lot worse than it was a few days ago, but...it didn't look like it was caused by staying up late studying, but more like...
..
A few days ago, she and Xiuhe went shopping in the market. When they passed by Zuichunyuan, they happened to see a scholar coming out of it. The scholar was holding his waist, his steps were weak, his face was pale, and his expression was similar to that of Mr. Li at this time.
It does look somewhat similar.
As she thought about it, the bun-faced maid started to blush.
Three big question marks suddenly appeared above Li Miao's head, and he didn't know why.
Why did she suddenly blush?
If he knew that the bun-faced maid took the way he was deliberately pretending to be so excessive, he would definitely be able to spit out a mouthful of blood.
