"La la la! La la la! I'm a little expert in selling newspapers. I won't wait until dawn to wait for newspaper delivery..."
Before the toad came near, Tang Xiaoyu faintly heard a singing voice in her ears.
Before she could react, she saw a small head sticking out from behind the toad, with two small dumplings stuck in it.
"Sister Xiaowei, Brother Daniu, Brother Erhu!"
The owner of the little head waved happily, with a happy smile on his little face.
At this moment, a group of children under the big locust tree immediately ran towards the toad, waving to Little Xibao as they ran.
Soon, many children gathered around the toad, and little Xibao slipped down from the toad's back with his small body.
I saw a bunch of people smiling happily surrounding a little girl, and the little girl was also smiling very happily.
Tang Xiaoyu muttered disdainfully.
What is there to be proud of? In Pingjiang Mansion, she was also the one surrounded by many little sisters.
"Girl, why don't you go and take a look?"
The servant girl beside her is a daughter of the Tang family, so she naturally hopes that her daughter can have more contact with children from the small town.
"Then let's go!"
Tang Xiaoyu straightened her chest and strode over.
…
Little Xibao was surrounded by everyone.
Suddenly I saw a very unfamiliar face walking slowly towards me.
"Little sister, who are you? Why haven't I seen you?" Xiao Xibao asked in a childish voice, blinking her big eyes.
Little sister?
She was called little sister by a girl younger than her.
"What little sister? No matter how I look at you, I'm older than you!" Tang Xiaoyu suddenly said with a straight face.
Little Xibao shook her little head and ran to Tang Xiaoyu. Tang Xiaoyu didn't know what this girl who didn't look very smart was going to do.
But the next moment, black lines suddenly appeared on Tang Xiaoyu's forehead.
I saw Xiao Xibao coming to Tang Xiaoyu's side and using her little hands to indicate the heights of the two of them.
If you don't look closely, the two of them look almost the same.
But if you look closely, well, Xiao Xibao is a little taller than Tang Xiaoyu, although it looks very small.
"I am taller than you!"
Xiao Xibao's little face suddenly smiled happily.
"How are you taller than me? We are at most the same height!" Tang Xiaoyu was not convinced and gestured with her hand.
"Xiao Xibao is indeed a little taller!"
"That's right!"
The people around me all agreed, which made Tang Xiaoyu even more angry. She felt that these bumpkins were ganging up to bully her, an outsider.
"You are from a small town, so of course you speak for your own people!!"
Tang Xiaoyu pointed at Xiao Xibao and looked at the servant girl aside, "Aunt Gui, who is taller, me or her?"
The maid hesitated for a moment and said, "Girl, Xiao Xibao is taller!"
Tang Xiaoyu immediately stamped her feet in anger, "No, she just has her hair tied up a little higher than me!!"
"That's also high!" Xiao Xibao corrected with a serious face.
"So what if it's high!"
Tang Xiaoyu took a deep breath. She felt that she was a bit stupid to argue with these people.
"Is that toad yours?"
Tang Xiaoyu suddenly pointed at the toad and asked.
"You said the little frog is mine!" Xiao Xibao nodded.
"Well, I'm interested in this toad, you can make a price!" Tang Xiaoyuyi said instructively.
The surrounding area suddenly became quiet.
All the children looked at Tang Xiaoyu, as if looking at an idiot.
Even the maid behind Tang Xiaoyu did not expect that Tang Xiaoyu would say these words.
“What does asking mean?”
Little Xibao scratched his little head and said confusedly.
"You're stupid, you don't even know this. The price I'm asking is that I want to buy your toad. How much money do you want? Just tell me!" Tang Xiaoyu said impatiently.
"Then why do you want to buy a little frog?" Xiao Xibao blinked.
"Of course...I won't tell you!"
Tang Xiaoyu would not say that she bought such a big toad because she wanted to take it back to Pingjiang Mansion to show it to her little sisters.
"Girl, we can't buy this little frog!"
The servant girl reacted and quickly pulled Tang Xiaoyu.
"As long as you have money, there's nothing you can't buy!"
Tang Xiaoyu looked at Xiao Xibao with an arrogant expression, "I bought your toad for ten taels. These ten taels are enough to feed your family for several years!"
There was a "pop" sound.
Suddenly, many of the children couldn't help laughing.
"Ten liang, you just want to buy a little frog? Then your twelfth tael is big enough!" A chubby little boy about seven years old shook his head and walked out with a smile.
"I have more than ten taels here, please leave quickly and don't disturb our play!!"
The fat little boy dug into his waist, took out some broken silver and threw it in front of Tang Xiaoyu, waving his hands impatiently.
"You...do you know who my father is?"
This was the first time that Tang Xiaoyu was insulted like this. You should know that she usually used money to hit people.
"Who is your father? What does it have to do with me?"
At this moment, the fat little boy looked even more arrogant than Tang Xiaoyu just now, he looked like a playboy.
"you!"
Tang Xiaoyu's face turned red with anger.
"Oh? I'm curious about who your father is?"
At this time, another seven-year-old boy came out.
This little boy is dressed in simple coarse linen clothes. He does not look wealthy, but his expression is plain and his demeanor is very extraordinary.
"My father is the prefect of Pingjiang Prefecture!"
Originally, Tang Xiaoyu thought that when these people heard who her father was, their faces would change with fright.
Because it was like this in Pingjiang Mansion. As soon as those people heard about her father, they were so frightened that they dared not move.
"I thought he was some kind of high official, but it turned out he was just a fourth-grade prefect, which is not as high as my father's official position!" The little boy sneered.
"Then what's your father's official position?" Tang Xiaoyu asked with his arms crossed.
"My father is nothing. He just teaches his grandson to read, but he is not as powerful as your father!" The little boy waved his hands, looking very humble.
Tang Xiaoyu was slightly startled.
She was originally a lady from an official family, and she had been exposed to it since she was a child. Naturally, she also heard about some things in the court. Her grandson is the next emperor, and those who can teach her are not from the first rank...
"you're lying!"
Tang Xiaoyu's face was full of disbelief. She didn't believe that the father of this ordinary man in front of her could be a big shot.
"Why should I lie to you? This is not something worth showing off!"
The good-looking little boy shrugged: "Besides, let me tell you one more thing. There are many people here whose uncles have higher official positions than your father!"
The little boy turned his head and glanced at his companions behind him.
"My uncle is the third-rank minister of Taichang Temple."
"My brother-in-law is a second-grade minister of the Ministry of Industry!"
"My uncle is also a second-grade student..."
Suddenly, voices came out from the crowd.
These voices are all talking about the official rank of a certain person in his family.
Moreover, his official position is even higher than that of Tang Xiaoyu's father.
