"What sweet potato? It's yam. Anyway, your yam is too thin." Su Nuannuan was at a loss for words, and suddenly felt that Duan Tingxuan beside him pulled her sleeve, and whispered: "Honey, this is iron stick yam, the thinnest of yams." OK."

"Hey, this big brother is the one who knows how to do it." The peddler laughed and said, "That's right, I'm an iron yam. If it's thicker than this, it can't be sold at this price."

Su Nuannuan immediately "turned into anger from embarrassment", turned her head and looked at Duan Tingxuan, gritted her teeth and said, "Women buy vegetables, what are you talking about? It's not helpful, just go." After finishing speaking, she turned her head and said, "Even if it's an iron stick yam, you This is too outrageous, two cents a piece, I'll buy ten."

"Give me twenty-five cents for ten sticks, and I won't sell any less." The hawker's attitude is also very tough.

"Twenty-three texts."

"No, twenty-four characters."

"Twenty-two texts."

"Too little, at least twenty-three."

"Okay, deal."

Hawker: ...

Duan Tingxuan: ...

King Xiangyang: ...

Lu Fengyu: ...

Looking at Duan Tingxuan who was walking listlessly with ten yams in front of him, the King of Xiangyang suddenly sighed and said, "Feng Yu, this king thinks that I must be thinking too much. How could such two people be Duan Tingxuan and his wife?" The dignified Master and Mrs. Shizi have bargained so far with a peddler, this...even if it is pretending, it is very difficult to pretend."

In fact, Lu Fengyu also felt the same way, the dignified son and his wife lived such a life just to be an undercover agent? That sacrifice was too great. However, he was always cautious, and he said immediately after hearing the words: "My lord, don't jump to conclusions. You must know that Sun Bin also pretended to be crazy and foolish in order to escape from Wei State. Such a trivial matter. It doesn't explain anything. Let's look further."

"Well! That's true." King Xiangyang nodded, and gave Lu Fengyu a look of approval: Although he, the number one military adviser, is delicious, he can handle big things clearly, and it's not because the cook Wang is good at cooking. Art desperately speaks for the other party.

Duan Tingxuan and Su Nuannuan wandered around the vegetable market for more than half an hour, and after being satisfied with the young couples in the market, they walked back happily with a vegetable basket. King Xiangyang and Lu Fengyu watched for a long time. Did not see any flaws. I was discussing to follow here today and go back to eat first, when suddenly I heard an exclamation. The two hurriedly looked around, and saw a big black horse galloping down the street, and after knocking over a person, the horse didn't stop before galloping away. Only passers-by were frightened to dodge one after another.

"It's too much, whose evil slave is riding a horse to commit murder? You must ask the master to investigate carefully when you go back." Su Nuannuan yelled angrily. Then he ran to the knocked down person in a few steps, only to see that the other person was an old beggar, wearing only a piece of dirty clothes with patches on his body, and his face was unkempt. Even the hands and feet are black, and I don't know how many years I haven't bathed.

The passers-by seemed to have the intention to come forward to rescue him, but they saw that the old beggar was so shabby and dirty. They all hesitated and stopped, only Su Nuannuan. Although his face was full of disgust, he muttered, "Why is it so dirty?" He kept his hands on the ground, quickly put the old beggar on the ground, pinched the other person and yelled, touched the carotid artery, and yelled a few times, seeing the old beggar The beggar didn't wake up, so she raised her head and said to Duan Tingxuan: "What are you still doing, quickly see if there is a medical clinic nearby? Ask a doctor to come over."

Seeing Su Nuannuan's expression, Duan Tingxuan knew that the old beggar was not in danger of his life for the time being, so he hesitated and said: "My wife, let's forget it, we have no relatives and no reason with him, why should we care about this matter, and let him bite you back... "

Before she finished speaking, Su Nuannuan saw Su Nuannuan's brows stand upright, and shouted: "What are you talking about? This is a human life. Are you going to ask the doctor? If you don't go, I will go."

"Okay, okay, I'll go." Duan Tingxuan was really henpecked, so he repeatedly agreed and turned around. After about a quarter of an hour, Fang dragged a young doctor and ran over, panting: "Okay... It's hard to do this." Find a medical clinic, there is only this doctor in it, let's make do with it."

When the young doctor saw the appearance of the old beggar, he frowned in disgust, but before he could speak, he heard Su Nuannuan say: "Doctors are parents, don't you think you are dirty? Don't worry, we won't give you less money." Yes, if you save this old man, you can be regarded as making a name for yourself, so what are you afraid of if it is dirty? Go back and wash it and it will be clean."

After hearing this, the doctor had no choice but to step forward, and after looking around and asking about it, he took out the needle bag from his bosom, took out a few silver needles and pierced several acupuncture points on the old beggar's body.

Su Nuannuan frowned, wondering if the silver needle was sterilized? Just for human use? I don't know if it will be disinfected after I use it up for this old beggar, alas! The medical environment in ancient times was really not optimistic. No wonder there were plagues every now and then.

It’s just that it’s useless to say these words now, the old beggar woke up quickly after performing the needle, and thanked the doctor a lot, but the doctor was not greedy for merit, and pushed Su Nuannuan and Duan Tingxuan out, so the old beggar again Come over to thank the two, Su Nuannuan counted the copper coins to pay the consultation fee, and bought the few used silver needles by the way, while nagging: "Old man, although you say you don't get sick after eating dirty, But you can’t be too dirty. If there is no bathing conditions, there is water everywhere in the south of the Yangtze River. Which river or stream do you jump into and you can’t wash it? Why do you make it so dirty? It’s harmful to others and not beneficial to yourself.”

The old beggar smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, my lady, but old man, I'm used to this kind of life, so I feel uncomfortable if I take a bath."

Su Nuannuan shook her head and said helplessly: "I can't control you, but it will be good for you if you listen to my advice, otherwise the next time this kind of thing happens again, everyone will dislike you for being dirty and refuse to come forward, can you Not being able to live is two things, but not every time you can meet a kind person like me."

The old beggar laughed twice, cupped his hands and saluted Su Nuannuan casually, and then left, which made the young doctor very angry for the couple. Duan Tingxuan also complained to his wife and said, "Why bother to come here? I have no good intentions..." Before he could say the word "report", he saw his wife throwing a knife in the eye, so he decisively shut up.

This was just an episode, the couple didn't take it seriously, and felt that after wandering outside for so long, it was enough for the eyeliners to go to the master to explain, so they returned to Mingyu Bieyuan with a vegetable basket, and talked about the next time along the way. When I am free, I am going to visit Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City.

King Xiangyang and Lu Fengyu did not follow, but went back to the palace, sat down in the study, King Xiangyang said: "After half the morning, how do you feel, sir?"
