The sun was setting.
In Matou Village outside Chang 'an City.
This place was surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the environment was pleasant.
It was surrounded by mountains on both sides and a lake on one side.
It can be said to be a paradise
However, in this era of constant war, such a paradise.
However, no one appreciated it.
Every day, he would only run around for survival?
The golden sunlight shone on a dirt path.
Han Xiu, who had returned with a full load, carried his banner and walked forward in a very happy mood.
To him, today was a great harvest.
Not only did he meet a foolish councilor who was 'not short of money', but he was also tricked into taking out a string of money with just a few words.
And accidentally activated the system
Good days might start today.
His younger sister did not have to go around helping others with work and being at their beck and call.
She thought happily in her heart.
Not long after, Horsehead Village appeared in their sights.
This was where Han Xiu and his sister had lived since they were young.
There were not many households in the village. There were only 30 to 40 households.
When he reached the village entrance.
He saw two people walking over from the front.
One was old and the other was young. They were wearing ordinary coarse linen clothes and had a cloth bag wrapped around their heads.
On their shoulders was something that looked like an iron pick.
When they saw Han Xiu, they smiled and greeted him.
"Brat Han, did you just come back from your fortune-telling?”
"Hehe, Big Brother Han, how's business today? How many people did you deceive again?"
The old and the young joked.
Because they were all from the same village, they knew each other very well.
Although Han Xiu made a living by tricking people, the villagers didn't ostracize him.
On the contrary, from time to time, they would help the siblings.
"Hahaha, Uncle Liu, little fatty, are you going to the fields? It's already so late. The sun is about to set. Don't fall!”
"Especially you, little fatty. If you fall with this weight, it's enough for you to lie at home for half a month!”Han Xiu said with a smile.
Hearing this, the old man burst into laughter.
The young man called Little Fatty made a mischievous face at Han Xiu.
After bidding farewell to the father and son, Han Xiu continued to walk into the village.
Along the way, they met a few more aunties and uncles from the same village.
Han Xiu greeted them politely.
Soon, his mud house appeared in Han Xiu's sight.
The reason why he said mud house.
It was completely made of yellow soil and covered with straw.
The house was simple and crude, and the interior was even more shabby.
However, for the lonely siblings, it was already good enough to have a place to cover their heads.
When Han Xiu arrived at the door.
In a small fenced courtyard.
It was a thin, skinny, but very good-looking girl.
He was sitting on a green stone, washing the wild vegetables seriously.
"Xi 'er!"
Han Xiu pushed open the fence and called out with a smile.
Instantly, the girl raised her head and a bright smile appeared on her face.
"Brother, you're back!"
"Hurry up and go into the house to rest. Dinner will be ready soon, hehe!”
the girl said with a smile.
Hearing this, Han Burang threw his banner and some other things on the ground.
He walked closer and squatted down to help his sister wash the vegetables.
To be honest, the siblings 'daily meals were mainly wild vegetables.
This was especially true during the Great Tang era.
Salt was a luxury that ordinary people could not afford.
Those with slightly better conditions would at most use vinegar cloths and salt cloths as substitutes.
The salt that the nobles and ministers ate was just coarse salt with impurities, a strange smell, and a salty taste.
Therefore, his sister looked extremely thin and weak.
Her face was a little sallow, as if she was malnourished.
"Brother, what are you looking at?"
At this moment, Han Xi 'er seemed to sense something strange about her brother.
She looked up and realized that her brother was looking at her.
Han Xiu was stunned.
He quickly shook his head and put his hand into his pocket as he said with a smile,"Xi 'er, how about I give you a gift today?”
"A gift?"
"Why are you giving me a gift? Brother, did you spend money recklessly again?”Han Xi 'er frowned.
"Aiya, don't worry about this. Come, look at this."
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Xiu directly took out a hairpin from his pocket.
When Han Xi 'er saw it.
A bright light flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
After all, she was a girl. She had an irresistible feeling towards these things.
Even his younger sister, who had been smart and sensible since childhood, was the same.
After all, the hairpin on her head now was the work she had done for someone last year, and the other party had used the hairpin to pay her wages.
Moreover, it was already damaged and old. Han Xiu's heart ached when he saw it.
"This, this hairpin is really beautiful."
Han Xi 'er looked at the hairpin in front of her with a joyful smile on her face.
Han Xiu didn't say anything.
He directly put the hairpin on his sister's head.
"Mm, that's right. Don't take this stupid hairpin. I'll let you live a good life in the future!”Han Xiu chuckled.
When he heard this.
Han Xi 'er was startled and turned around.
"Brother, this, this hairpin is probably expensive. Where, where did you get the money?”
"Although we're poor, we can't steal or rob!”
"Quickly send it back, quickly send it back!"
The younger sister's expression changed and she became extremely anxious.
He looked at her worried face.
Han Xiu sighed to himself.
Being poor was the original sin. Otherwise, why would his sister have such a reaction?
Han Xiu quickly said," Don't worry. I earned this with my silver tongue. It just so happens that he's a rich man. If I'm not mistaken, I'll earn even more money in three days. So, wear this hairpin!"”
"Really?"
Han Xi 'er frowned and said doubtfully.
"Of course, Xi 'er. I promise you that from today onwards, I'll let you slowly lead a good life. When we have money, I'll find a good family for you and marry you off gloriously.”
"Hehehe!"
"Brother, I'm not getting married. If I really get married, I'll have to watch you get married first!”
"You wish!"
"Hehehe!"
