Chapter 161 After Resting, They Continued on Their Journey
Jiang Ping slowly landed behind the two little fellows and spoke.
“Wan’er, it’s time to go back!”
Wan’er and He Xiangjiang turned their heads around at the same time.
The little girl was overjoyed and said in surprise, “Why are you here?” Wan’er pointed at Jiang Ping and said to the young Taoist priest beside her, “This is my Daddy.”
The young Taoist priest nodded and said, “Oh.”
He then performed a meridian technique with both hands and bowed to Jiang Ping.
Jiang Ping clasped his hands in front of his chest and bowed back.
Wan’er said, “I’m going back. You should go back and sleep early too.”
He Xiangjiang verbally acknowledged with a single note. Jiang Ping then held Wan’er’s hand and wrapped her with his spiritual energy.
And they flew in the sky together.
Before leaving, the little girl waved at the young Taoist priest.
The young Taoist priest responded with a smile.
After both of them had gone far, He Xiangjiang finally reacted.
He was on the roof!
How could he go down alone?
Jiang Ping flew back to the inn with Wan’er.
After they landed, Wan’er asked Jiang Ping for money for the first time.
Jiang Ping was a little surprised. In the past, these girls would not carry their own money.
When they went out to buy things, they would usually ask him or Li Sushang to pay.
Jiang Ping then asked the little girl, “What do you need the money for?”
Wan’er said impatiently, “Don’t bother about it, Daddy. Give me the money quickly.”
Jiang Ping sighed and teased, “This little girl hasn’t even grown up, and she begins to favor an outsider.”
Wan’er said angrily, “Daddy!”
Jiang Ping smiled as he took out a purse from his storage space.
“Alright, alright, alright. Here, take it!”
Wan’er happily took the purse, turned around, and returned to her room to sleep.
Jiang Ping felt a little helpless but could only shake his head and follow.
The following morning, Jiang Ping had everyone packed up their things.
And they continued to set off.
Before they set off, Wan’er said that she wanted to buy something.
Li Sushang wanted to go with her, but Wan’er refused.
Wan’er went to a tailor shop alone.
“Shopkeeper, I want to buy a piece of cloth!”
The shopkeeper lowered his head and looked at the little girl.
“What kind of material do you want?”
Wan’er looked around the shop.
“I don’t know either. Get me the best ones.”
The shopkeeper grinned and asked her to wait for a while.
In a short while, the shopkeeper came out with a few pieces of cloth.
“All the best ones are here. Little girl, which color would you like to pick?” Wan’er browsed through the selection of cloths.
In the end, she chose a color that she liked.
“Shopkeeper, wrap it up.” “Alright!”
After the shopkeeper wrapped the cloth, Wan’er casually left the purse that Jiang Ping gave her last night behind.
Then, she turned around and crossed the threshold to leave the shop.
The shopkeeper picked up the purse and opened it.
The money inside was enough to buy his entire shop.
He hurriedly stopped the little girl.
“Hey, little girl, I haven’t given you the change.”
“You have given too much. There’s no need to pay so much for just a piece of cloth.”
Wan’er turned around.
She stood at the door and asked, “Really? I don’t know. Then, hurry up and give me the change.”
The shopkeeper took out a piece of silver from the purse and returned the purse to the little girl.
Wan’er took the wallet and asked, “That’s it? It’s so cheap?”
The shopkeeper was also stunned. His shop had been opened for so many years.
And the street was full of people who had found it expensive. It was the first time he saw someone who found it cheap.
“Yes, this small piece of silver is enough.”
Wan’er nodded, then turned around and left.
Actually, the shopkeeper had found this little girl to be rich, generous, and innocent-looking.
He had already secretly profited because usually, a piece of silver would be sufficient to buy two pieces of cloths that the little girl was holding in her hands.
Wan’er never had to pay for things herself, so there was no way she could understand the market situation.
She paid for it in a muddle-headed way and even felt that it was cheap.
The little girl even thought to herself as she walked back to the inn.
The young Taoist priest couldn’t even afford such cheap cloth. It seemed that his family was really poor.
Wan’er secretly made up her mind that if she ever saw the young Taoist priest again in the future, she would treat him better.
She couldn’t use so much strength when beating him.
Alright, that had been decided!
The carriage was already set up at the inn’s entrance when she was bouncing her way back.
Jiang Ping just happened to walk out of the inn with Yan’er and Liu’er.
Yan’er saw Wan’er bouncing back, holding a package in her hand.
So, she asked, “Wan’er, what’s that in your hand?”
Wan’er hugged the wrapped cloth tightly and turned her body sideways.
“This is my little secret. I won’t tell you.”
Seeing that Wan’er didn’t want to tell them, Yan’er said indifferently, “Tsk, who cares?”
Wan’er then walked to Jiang Ping’s side.
She secretly handed the package to him.
“Daddy, help me to keep it well. Don’t let others know.”
Just when Jiang Ping was about to reach out to take it, the little girl withdrew her hand that was handing the package to him.
She then added another sentence.
“Of course, Daddy, you can’t secretly open it and take a look.”
Jiang Ping chuckled, “Alright. I won’t look at it. Give it to me.”
Jiang Ping took the parcel from the little girl’s hand and put it into his storage space without looking at it.
Wan’er then secretly felt relieved.
After listening to the conversation between the little girl and the young Taoist priest last night, Jiang Ping could guess what was inside the package without even looking.
After Qiu Chi and Li Sushang also came out, Jiang Ping looked around and asked, “Where’s Old Lei?”
Qiu Chi and Lei Jingyun’s rooms were closest to each other. Qiu Chi then said, “I called him just now. He was already awake. Maybe he’s still drunk. He should be tidying up now, right?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lei Jingyun slowly walked out of the inn while patting his head.
Jiang Ping looked at him with a playful smile.
“Old Lei, you had quite some fun last night.”
Qiu Chi also joked, “Yes, I didn’t expect Old Lei to be so playful at such an old age!”
Lei Jingyun immediately understood after hearing their words.
His ears turned red as he asked, “I didn’t say any drunken words last night, did I?”
Jiang Ping and Qiu Chi looked at each other and smiled.
Then the two of them waved their hands and said a few “no” in succession.
Lei Jingyun’s face turned even redder after seeing them like this.
Who would believe them when they said “no” like this?
Jiang Ping patted Lei Jingyun’s shoulder and said, “Stay away from the three little girls in the future. I’m afraid that you’ll be a bad influence.”
Qiu Chi also stepped forward and patted Lei Jingyun on the other shoulder, “Stay away from me too. I’m not mentally strong enough. I’m afraid I’ll follow you one day.”
Lei Jingyun looked at the two of them and hurriedly explained, “What are you talking about? I was only invited to a restaurant by the town’s residents last night and drank some wine.”
Jiang Ping withdrew his hand from Lei Jingyun’s shoulder and asked, “Really? Then what about the young lady?”
Lei Jingyun couldn’t say anything.
Although he went to a brothel, he didn’t do anything
He only drank wine.
But now, it seemed that they had firmly believed that Lei Jingyun was that kind of person.
Lei Jingyun felt helpless. It seemed that in the days to come, this matter would be used as a joke by Jiang Ping and Qiu Chi.
A joke to disgust him.
