Chapter 1326: Remuneration
If you're destined to make money, you must also be destined to spend it.
Otherwise, if you lose your life for money, it's not worth it.
A middle-aged woman said to Bai Zhi: "Young Lady, if you are anxious to go into the mountains, you can go find someone to ask, maybe he dares to take you there."
Another woman said: "Why are you telling her all this? That guy doesn't usually interact with us, why should we help him to attract business?"
The woman smiled and said: "Although we don't interact much, we live in the same village anyway, so we can help if we can. He lives alone, it's pitiful."
The woman next to him snorted twice with a crooked mouth and muttered something. In short, she looked unhappy and blamed the woman for being too talkative.
Bai Zhi walked up to the friendly woman and said with a smile: "Auntie, where is the man you are talking about?"
The woman pointed in a direction: "He lives in the room at the end. He rarely comes out on weekdays. The doors and windows must be closed. Be patient and call him a few times. He will open the door."
The woman heard this and said in a shrill voice: "Oh, you sound so familiar with him. People who don't know him would think you have knocked on his door many times."
The crowd laughed, and the woman's face turned blue and red. She pursed her lips and said nothing, but her body was shaking with anger.
Bai Zhi didn't say much but gave Xiao Qing a look.
Xiao Qing immediately took out a silver ingot weighing ten taels from her purse and handed it to the woman: "Auntie, please show us the way. This is your reward."
When the silver ingot was taken out, everyone's eyes were wide open. The reward for entering the mountain was only five taels of silver. She could earn ten taels just by saying a few words and showing the way over a short distance. Is there such a good thing in the world?
The woman was an honest person. She had never seen such a thing before. She pushed it without thinking: "No, no, it's just showing the way. Why do you need to pay me?"
As soon as the woman pushed it, the woman next to her immediately squeezed forward: "Give it to me. I will take you there and promise to call the person out for you." The woman said and reached out to take the silver from Xiao Qing's hand.
Xiao Qing withdrew her hand and said with a smile: "Don't bother, my lady and this Auntie get along well, so I want to ask her to lead the way."
As she said that, she took the woman's hand, stuffed the silver into her palm, and said: "Auntie, don't refuse, this is what you deserve."
The woman was not stupid. Seeing this, she probably guessed the reason and was very moved. She also knew that they didn't care about this little money, so she didn't refuse anymore. She accepted the silver and immediately led them to the wooden house of the bearded man.
Pairs of envious eyes stared at the leaving figure. Someone in the crowd laughed and said: "This is called good deeds are rewarded. As a person, you should do more good deeds and accumulate more virtues. Only by doing more good deeds can you have blessings!"
The woman glared at the person who spoke with a sharp eye, twisted her body, and left angrily.
Bai Zhi followed the middle-aged woman, Aunt Miao, to the wooden house at the edge of the village. This wooden house was the smallest and most humble house they had seen along the way. The yard was also very small. There was no extra space after just piling up some dry firewood.
Looking at the snow-capped mountains not far away, Bai Zhi thought that if a blizzard blew, this house would probably be blown up to the sky!
Aunt Miao didn't go in, but stood outside the small yard and shouted inside, "Brother Hu, there are guests coming, are you in there?"
No one responded, Bai Zhi looked at Aunt Miao and asked, "Is he out?"
Aunt Miao shook her head: "No, I live at the entrance of the village. If he went out, I would see him. He hasn't been out for several days. It's too cold. To save firewood, he should be sleeping in the house."
