Madam Xie frowned and read on hurriedly.

Xie Yuanjiu wrote in the letter:

[Mom, my uncle hates you being associated with those three kinds of religions in the world, especially the goddesses and other strange and chaotic gods. If he knows that you have not only come into contact with the goddesses, but also use evil curses to harm people, he and your father will never forgive you! 】

Seeing such words, Mrs. Xie's eyebrows jumped.

I also became anxious and panicked.

She continued to read.

Xie Yuanjiu wrote:

[Uncle is in the position of prime minister. I am afraid that what you have done will be spread to his ears soon. Rather than being criticized after he finds out, it is better to take action in advance. After thinking about it, I only have one idea. Helped you. 】

[The only way is for you to blame this matter on Shen Ningning. Because she is deeply loved by her uncle, even if he finds out the clues, he will not blame her. 】

Mrs. Xie was a little hesitant and murmured: "Is this possible..."

Unexpectedly, she lowered her eyes and found that Xie Yuanjiu still had one last message -

[If you are not ruthless, your father will completely despise you when the incident comes to light. 】

Madam Xie's face turned pale instantly.

She immediately decided to follow Xie Yuanjiu's idea and blame Shen Ningning for seeing the goddess.

But……

Mrs. Xie Er has always been short-term, and she didn't even think of a good idea for a while.

She called the maid and whispered: "Send someone to keep an eye on Princess Funing's movements for me."

Shen Ningning was thinking about the secret hunting in Xitai Village, so she picked a day to take Chen Ye and the Black Wolf King to Xitai Village.

As soon as I entered the village, I saw a pair of parents pushing and pulling their daughter who was crying and begging for mercy not far away.

"Father, mother, please, don't sell me! I can work and cook, just keep me."

"Rui'er, stop struggling. Only by selling you can your two brothers survive!" The mother wiped away her tears.

But with his hands, he cruelly pushed the girl, who had not yet reached her hair, directly into Ren Yazi's arms.

Ren Yazi cupped his hand and immediately asked the follower behind him to pass over a fur coat in his hand.

Then, the follower tied the girl's hands and feet, stuffed the rag into her mouth, and threw her directly into the bullock cart.

Even though the girl struggled, cried, and made hysterical sounds, she failed to attract the distressed looks of her parents.

Ren Yazi signed the contract and left with the people.

There was a frown on Shen Ningning's round face.

She stepped forward to stop him, but was stopped by Chen Ye.

"Miss, you'd better leave this matter alone."

"Why?"

Chen Ye pursed his lips and motioned Shen Ningning to look at the girl's parents.

I saw them getting fur coats, their eyes were shining, they were stroking back and forth, laughing and talking as they entered the house.

I don’t feel the slightest bit sad about selling my daughter.

Chen Ye said: "It's okay if you help me once, but what if there is a second or third time?"

"Even if you rescue that girl, it won't help. Her parents will only use her as a resource to trade with others."

Shen Ningning's pink and delicate face showed displeasure.

"They say God is ruthless, but I think people's hearts are also very cold sometimes."

Chen Ye sighed: "The way the world is, buying and selling people has become a common thing. Miss, let's find the head of Xitai Village as soon as possible and explain the hunting."

Shen Ningning nodded, but she couldn't help but look back and glanced at Ren Yazi's bullock cart.

The man carrying the sold girl has turned into a black dot in the distance.

Shen Ningning had no choice but to look away.

When they arrived at the village chief's house, they found out it was Shen Ningning. Village Chief Mei quickly smiled and welcomed her into the house.

After a while, everyone in Xitai Village heard the news and rushed to the door to watch.

It looked like seeing a fortune star approaching.

Shen Ningning simply explained his intention.

She hoped that the villagers in Xitai Village would stop hunting in the mountains.

Before Village Chief Mei said anything, the villagers of Xitai Village surrounding the door started shouting angrily.

"Princess Funing, you and Xiangyun Village are rich in resources. You can get whatever you want, but you can't stand and talk without your back hurting!"

"That's right, you are not short of food, we are very short of food! Ask around in the village to find out who is not injured due to hunger or cold!"

"Princess Funing, you're still a lucky girl, and you're just trying to persuade us like this? Our backers should be eating mountains. If you don't hunt, are you going to watch us starve to death?"

Listening to the passionate words of the crowd, Shen Ningning's face showed no emotion.

Village Chief Mei glanced at her out of the corner of his eye before reaching out to stop the villagers.

"That's enough! The princess came to our village to have a serious discussion. If you continue to argue, go back!"

Everyone was silent, except for those pairs of eyes, which seemed to be pierced with thorns, staring straight at Shen Ningning's little figure.

Village Chief Mei rubbed his hands and held the tea cup to protect the last trace of heat.

He is over forty years old, with a round face and slit eyes when he smiles.

It looked like a calculation.

"Princess Funing, if you ask us not to hunt, we will definitely cooperate. The two sons of Lao Qian's family went hunting in the mountains a while ago and their lives were involved."

"We don't want to do such a dangerous thing anymore. Since you also brought it up, that's good. How much do you plan to give us?"

Shen Ningning blinked her big eyes and did not answer in a hurry.

Village Chief Mei's smile gradually faded: "You have no intention of giving anything? Are you just trying to convince us not to go hunting with your mouth?"

"Oh, Princess, then you have made the wrong idea. Our whole village has to live. If you don't allow hunting, at least you have to give us something. You don't even have anything or compensation. This Langshan Mountain is not yours alone. of."

Shen Ningning Nuo Nuo asked back: "If I give you something, what do you want?"

Village Chief Mei immediately said: "Every household must have one hundred taels of silver as compensation, right?"

"Also, I heard that every household in Xiangyun Village has at least five fur coats. If there are not enough, you can make up for them. We don't dare to ask for so many, but each of our families has three fur coats, one big cloak, and two fur coats. A quilt, isn’t that too much?”

The villagers of Xitai Village were shouting outside.

"I also want rice noodles! Three kilograms per family!"

"Yes! There's also pork and mutton."

Chen Ye clenched his fists upon hearing this and looked at the villagers of Xitai Village with sharp eyes.

Sudden.

Shen Ningning's little hand slapped on the table, full of momentum.

The originally chattering villagers suddenly became quiet.

Shen Ningning stood up and looked at Village Chief Mei, with a cold expression on her face.

"I originally wanted to discuss it carefully, but what Village Chief Plum said is no different from a lion opening its mouth. In that case, I will leave first. It won't be too late to find me after you think about it."

She took Chen Ye to the door.

The mayor of Mei Village did not try to persuade him to stay.

Instead, he said with a smile: "Princess, please go slowly, it's freezing cold, and our clothes are thin, so we won't give it away."

"But I still have to give the princess a word of caution. We will recuperate and go hunting in the mountains. After all, we have to live and eat."

Shen Ningning did not respond and left with Chen Ye.

Before she could walk far, she heard the villagers in Xitai Village behind her murmuring——

"This girl doesn't remember any kindness at all."

"Yes, I lived in the Wu family before, and I didn't say anything about taking care of our village."

"You still dare to think about it? That stupid boy Wu Zuchang was killed by her."

Chen Ye couldn't stand listening, so he held his sword and wanted to walk back.

"Miss, they are going too far!"

However, Shen Ningning kept a calm expression, her face pink and white, hidden in a rabbit fur collar.

"Brother Chen, there's no need to go. It's not worth arguing with them."

The two returned to the carriage.

Chen Ye was still angry: "You shouldn't be soft-hearted and want to compensate each of them, but they are talking to you."

"Since they don't appreciate it, let them go into the mountains and die!"

Shen Ningning pursed her lips: "I originally did it for brother Zuchang's sake."

“But since we can’t reach an agreement, that’s it!”

Shen Ningning just returned to Xiangyun Village.

I saw Grandma Qin holding a broom in the yard of her village house and angrily beating a tall and thin man out.

"Get out of here, get out of my house!"
