Chapter 132 I Protect Him

"I promise that I will never embarrass him again in front of others or behind their backs."

Wang Xin returned the money to An Nian and said, "An Nian, we will never embarrass you again in the future."

An Nian didn't say anything, but silently took the silver and money handed to him.

An Yue asked again in a deep voice: "You! What's your name?"

The boy said timidly: "Wang...Xin."

As expected, in the face of absolute force, all rebels have to compromise.

An Yue asked: "Why did you guys always bully An Nian before?"

“This…this…” Wang Xin scratched his head, hesitating.

Seeing that they didn't say anything, An Yue raised her eyes and glared at Wang Xin, saying in a threatening voice: "Hurry up and tell me!!"

Wang Xin said in a low voice with grievance: "It's him... He usually talks about knowledge with the teacher and doesn't talk to anyone after class."

The middle-sized boy who was tied up behind him added, "We went up to talk to him, but he just nodded and shook his head."

The tall and thin man continued, "We all can't stand the way he does things his own way."

An Yue turned her head and blinked at An Nian, trying not to smile but saying nothing.

She turned her head and continued to ask, "So you guys are making things difficult for An Nian just because you want to be closer to him, right?"

The boys didn't say anything, but just nodded.

Wang Xin lowered his head and whispered, "Although he is young, he learns faster than us. We are very willing to make friends with him."

An Yue pulled An Nian in front of Wang Xin and said to her with a smile: "Did Nian Nian hear it? They wanted to be friends with you, but you ignored them."

An Nian smiled embarrassedly and scratched his head.

An Yue turned around, squatted down and untied the three of them. The boys stood in a row consciously.

An Yue stood in front of them and said, "Now that everyone has talked it out, you are not allowed to bully An Nian again. Do you remember this?"

Several boys were so scared that they lowered their heads and wiped their sweat.

An Yue nodded in satisfaction and reminded again: "An Nian is the youngest among you, never bully him again!"

"If I find anyone bullying him again, I'll break his arm!"

Wang Xin patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, lady! I will protect him in the academy from now on."

An Yue sent them to the archway at the west entrance of the town and watched them enter the school with her own eyes.

"Go! You'll be late for school today."

An Nian walked towards the school gate with a few boys.

An Yue carried a backpack and prepared to go to Minkang Pharmacy.

Regarding An Nian, An Yue actually vaguely discovered that An Nian had changed since he went to school.

She is no longer the soft and gentle little kid who always asks questions when she encounters something she doesn't understand.

Now he has become silent and thinks independently.

He often studies hard alone in silence, as if he wants to devote all his energy to studying.

An Yue was a little worried that An Nian would become a nerd because of over-studying.

So, An Yue decided to find an opportunity to have a good talk with An Nian.

After a while, An Yue unknowingly arrived at the door of the pharmacy.

Doctor Zhou, who was standing at the counter, saw An Yue from afar.

He came out with a smile and greeted her warmly, "Miss An Yue is here?"

"Yes! Is Uncle Zhou busy?"

"I'm not busy, I'm just tidying up in my free time. Come on! Please come in quickly."

After An Yue entered the shop, she put down her backpack.

There is a small basket in the backpack, which is filled with dried Ophiopogon japonicus.

Doctor Zhou grabbed a handful of Ophiopogon japonicus from a small basket, looked at it, and smelled it.

"Uncle Zhou, can you take a look at the quality of this Ophiopogon japonicus?"

He smiled with wrinkles all over his face and replied, "This Ophiopogon japonicus has full grains and a strong aroma. Very good! Very good!"

Doctor Zhou put the Ophiopogon japonicus back into the basket and exclaimed, "Oh! Miss An Yue, you really impress me!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Uncle Zhou! Shall we go and weigh it now?"

"Okay, girl, come with me to the backyard to weigh the goods!"

After Doctor Zhou finished speaking, he called to the little pharmacist who was doing odd jobs in the shop.

"Awang, go get two winnowing baskets and come to the backyard to weigh and load the Ophiopogon japonicus."

After saying that, the three of them walked towards the backyard together.

The three of them weighed it and found that excluding the weight in the small basket, the total weight of Ophiopogon japonicus was five pounds.

After weighing, An Yue carried the backpack and followed Doctor Zhou to the counter of the shop.

Doctor Zhou said, "Miss An Yue, the dried Ophiopogon japonicus weighs five kilograms in total."

"The price agreed upon with the girl before was eighty coins per catty, so five catties would be four hundred coins."

An Yue smiled and nodded, and replied: "Yes!"

Then, Doctor Zhou handed An Yue two taels of silver, and An Yue took the silver and put it away.

Doctor Zhou added, "Miss An Yue, if you have Ophiopogon japonicus in the future, just send it to me."

An Yuetian smiled and replied, "No problem!"

After a brief farewell, she put on her backpack and walked out of the shop.

Today is not a market day, and there are only a few scattered pedestrians on the street.

As the old saying goes, "If you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools."

In the future, I will definitely have to go up the mountain to dig herbs frequently.

An Yue was thinking about buying a small hoe specifically for digging herbs.

She walked towards the street alley where farm tools were sold.

——Grocery store.

The old shopkeeper came forward and asked enthusiastically, "Miss An Yue, what do you want to buy this time?"

An Yue stood in front of the counter, smiled at the shopkeeper, looked around the shop, and asked, "Shopkeeper, I want to buy a small hoe specially for digging herbs. Do you have any?"

"Yes, yes, yes, take a look here." After the shopkeeper said this, he led An Yue to the table in the corner of the shop.

The shopkeeper walked in front and An Yue followed behind.

"The little girl can also dig herbs?"

An Yue smiled and replied, "I only know the basics."

"There are many weeds in the mountains and forests. How do you distinguish the herbs?"

An Yue said modestly: "I can only simply distinguish the shapes and smells of a few herbs."

"At such a young age, you are really amazing!"

As he was talking, the old shopkeeper picked out a small hoe for An Yue.

The cutting edge of the small hoe is narrow, sharp and smooth, so it should be able to easily dig out the roots of herbs.

The handle is made of wood, short and light, easy to use and durable, and convenient to carry.

"Boss, how much is this little hoe?"

"You are an old customer! I will charge you eighty cents!"

After paying the money, An Yue put the small hoe in the backpack and left the grocery store.

An Yue thought to herself that this small hoe cost her eighty cents, and she felt a little painful about it.

However, thinking that it would be easier and more efficient to go up the mountain to dig herbs in the future, I didn't feel so bad about it anymore.

When they arrived at the town entrance, they found that Li Wu's ox cart was no longer there, so An Yue had to walk home.

Along the way, An Yue discovered that the peach trees on the roadside were already hanging with buds and about to bloom.

An Yue was admiring the early spring scenery along the way, when suddenly, she saw a person sitting by the side of the road.
