Tiger falls in Pingyang borrows some money

  Volume 1: The Ghost Hand's Medical Skills are Hidden 03 The Tiger Lands in Pingyang, Borrowing Money for Use

  "They've all left, why haven't you two left?"

  Tang Xin gave a weird look at the twin sisters standing beside her, rubbed her slightly hungry stomach, and looked at the road ahead, feeling a bit of a headache.

  Her mind was a complete blank, with no memories of this body's past, unaware of her origins, didn't know if she had any family left, and didn't know where to go now. More importantly, she had no money, and all she had on her was this tattered outfit that was barely better than a beggar's clothes.

  Money isn't everything, but without it, every step is difficult!

  "I'm Xia Xue, she's my sister Xia Yu. We... we want to follow you." One of the girls spoke up, looking at her with some trepidation.

  "Is it snowing? Is it raining?" She stared at the two identical small faces in shock, then shook her head and laughed: "No way, no way, I can't afford to raise you." She didn't want to bring two little devils with her, and she would have to take care of them too. That was a losing proposition she wasn't going to get into.

  The two of them gritted their teeth and lowered their heads: "But we have nowhere to go."

  "Then you figure it out yourself, I'm leaving, don't follow me again." As she said that, she started walking forward with her small legs, but unexpectedly, the two small legs were held by the two people.

  "Take us with you! We acknowledge you as our master."

  Upon hearing this, her face sank, carrying an maturity that didn't match her age. Her eyes swept across the two of them and she said: "You two shouldn't be ordinary people's children. Don't casually say who you'll acknowledge as your master. Moreover, what can you two do? If you want to acknowledge me as your master, it depends on whether or not you have that qualification."

  "Let go!" she shouted mercilessly.

  After hearing her words, the two of them stared at her blankly for a while. Xiaoyu asked, "Is it that once we learn some skills, we can follow Miss around?"

  Tang Xin raised an eyebrow. This little girl is quite clever? She's changed her tune and started calling her "Miss"? Did she say she was going to take them in?

  "We know, miss. Once we've learned the skills, we'll come find you." The two let go of her legs and stood up, their dirty little faces serious with sparkling eyes shining with determination.

  She smiled slightly, waved her hand and walked down the mountain. For now, finding something to fill her stomach was still the most important thing.

  Pingyao Ancient City

  She looked at the three big characters on the city gate and burst out laughing: "I didn't expect that 'a tiger fallen into a plain is bullied by a dog' refers to this place?"

  Looking out from the city gate, inside was a sea of people, bustling and prosperous. She slightly turned her gaze, her small face lit up with a bright smile, and she walked in with quick steps.

  In such a prosperous Pingyang City, it shouldn't be difficult to make some money.

  The aroma of meat buns!

  Her eyes lit up, and she followed the fragrance to a small food stall, where she gazed at the steaming hot buns and couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

  "Get out of here, you little beggar! Move along, move along! Don't block my business." The street vendor waved his hand in disgust to shoo her away.

  Tang Xin smiled and didn't bother with him, asking: "Boss, how much is this bun per piece?" Smelling the fragrance, she was really hungry.

  "One copper plate, but do you have the money?" The peddler sized her up and saw that she was shabbily dressed, clearly thinking that she couldn't even afford one copper plate.

  "Yes, I'll come back and buy some more, leave a few for me."

  She smiled with narrowed eyes, then turned around and walked into the crowd, her gaze sweeping over those who were dressed in finery, finally falling on a figure not far away. The young man was dressed exceptionally well, with a brocade pouch at his waist that was so conspicuous it seemed to be begging her to pick him out.

  With a cunning glint in her eye, she made her way over to him, running up and throwing herself at his legs: "Waaah... Brother, Heart has finally found you! Brother, Uncle sold me out, I barely managed to escape, don't abandon Heart..."

  Alright! She thought that this young man, who was only 12 or 13 years old, looked easy to deceive. He was wearing a silk outfit, so he must be the son of a wealthy family and wouldn't miss this small amount of money. Even if she didn't see him again, he wouldn't bother chasing after her.

  Mo Chen frowned slightly and looked at the little guy hugging his thigh, coldly saying: "You've mistaken me for someone else, I'm not your brother."

  "Ah?" She blinked her eyes and raised her head, her innocent big eyes blinking at him, staring at him for a while before saying seriously: "But, but you are my brother, brother, don't you recognize Xiaohong anymore?"

  "I told you I'm not, let go!" Mu Chenfeng's handsome face showed a hint of impatience, and with a wave of his hand, he pushed her away. He glanced at the little girl who sat on the ground staring at him in a daze, then pulled out a handful of silver coins from his waist and tossed them to her before turning around and leaving with big strides.

  Watching him give her the silver, Tang Xin was stunned, picked it up and took a look. For this place where she had no knowledge of, she didn't know how much money this broken silver was worth. After picking up the silver, she stood up from the ground and walked towards the stall selling buns, shouting in a crisp voice with a smile: "Boss, give me five meat buns." She handed over the silver: "Remember to change my money."

  The little vendor packed five meat buns into a bag for her, while looking at her strangely and asking, "Was that person really your brother?"

  "That's right!"

  "You don't look like him at all, besides, if he were really your brother, wouldn't he recognize you?"

  "My brother has been away from home for ten years, of course he doesn't recognize me!" She said with a smile, taking the package and putting the silver pieces into her bosom.

  "How old are you?" The vendor looked at her with a strange expression.

  "Me?" She thought for a moment, smiled and said: "Should be five years old." As she spoke, she took out a bun to eat, turned around and walked into the crowd, leaving behind the small vendors staring at her in shock...

  Arriving at the riverbank, he sat down and untied the silk pouch he had just "borrowed" from that young man. When he opened it, he found only a piece of paper inside. Even when he turned the entire bag upside down, not even two silver coins fell out, and he couldn't help but glare with his eyes wide open, muttering curses under his breath.

  "Is that it? There's just a scrap of paper in here?" He picked up the paper and opened it, revealing a list of over a dozen medicines and their dosages. He couldn't help but click his tongue: "What kind of quack doctor prescribed this? And Thousand-Year Snow Ginseng? I've collected some precious medicines myself, and the oldest one is only Thousand-Year Human Ginseng. I thought there would be silver tickets in here! Who knew it was just a worthless prescription?" With that, he crumpled up the paper and casually tossed it into the river.

  On the other hand, when Mochengfeng felt empty around his waist, he couldn't help but sink in his heart. He lowered his head to take a look and found that the brocade bag containing the prescription he had finally obtained was gone! His dark face changed between sunny and cloudy for a moment, and he cursed angrily.

  "Damn it!"
