Chapter 6: The Boy in White

He Xiu learned the tone of the shopkeeper to bargain with the vendors, and he was stunned by the shrewd and instigated vendors, Anu saw it in his eyes and admired it in his heart.

The only unpleasant thing was that he had a little awkward trouble with a richly dressed rich boy, but it didn't affect He Xiu's mood for shopping.

After a while, a cart full of ingredients arrived, He Xiu drove the carriage, counted the remaining principal, and laughed, "Haha, Brother Anu, we saved a full ten taels for the shopkeeper, and we all bought middle and high-class goods." You say, how will he reward the two of us?"

Anudon was ashamed, he had been out to buy ingredients for many years, and he had never saved so much money for the shopkeeper, he knew that He Xiu deliberately said that it was a common result, in order to take care of his self-esteem, but he completely accepted it in his heart, he didn't feel ashamed at all, and accepted it happily.

Anu blushed and said, "In this way, you can also reward us with five taels of flowers." ”

He Xiu became interested and fantasized, "If that's the case, I'll invite you to drink the best wine in our shop." ”

"Don't deny it, you kid. ”

He Xiu waved his whip and said boldly, "The gentleman is quick to speak. ”

The shopkeeper learned that the two of them had saved him ten taels of silver, so he was happy, praised them a lot, and asked the two to behave well, and this month's salary rose to three cents, Anu's face was ashamed, and he was determined to ask for advice.

He Xiu tossed around all morning, and finally sent the last table of guests on the second floor away, and sat at the door to gnaw on a nest to take time to rest.

Soon he saw three sturdy young men walking in, and He Xiu greeted him with a smile, "Welcome to the three guests, our restaurant is delicious, cooking, stir-frying, roasting, wine, herbal tea is refreshing, three guests please sit down." ”

"No need, tonight, my lord will have a banquet at home, and I hope that the store will prepare all the delicacies and wines and deliver them to the customs before dinner. One of the leaders said a young man in black.

"Guanfu, is it the Guanfu of soup kitchen?" He Xiu was shocked, he didn't dare to ask more, he secretly observed the black-clothed young man who spoke, and remembered that there were many domestic servants who maintained order when he received porridge in front of Guanfu for the first time, this black-clothed young man stood first, and He Xiu was most impressed by him.

He Xiu didn't dare to slack off, and said respectfully, "Three big brothers, please rest assured, ensure that the delicacies are made with the freshest food and the most mellow wine, and according to what you said, they will be sent to the Guan Mansion hot before dinner." ”

The young man in black took out a gold ingot from his arms, handed it to He Xiu, and disappeared into the crowd.

He Xiu took the gold and felt a lot of emotion in his heart, the big family was really generous, and then he couldn't help but think of the fact that the eldest lady of the Guan family had given a lot of extra food in a row, and he had long wanted to thank him in person, but unfortunately he didn't have the opportunity to see it, and he didn't know if he could meet it today.

Don't dare to delay the hour, He Xiu handed over the gold to the shopkeeper and explained the reason, the shopkeeper smiled happily and bent over, the shopkeeper held the gold in her hand, not believing that a meal could earn a gold ingot.

The shopkeeper instructed He Xiu and Anu to say, "The Guan family is the largest household in Qiman Town, and there can be no mistakes, He Xiu, you go to the door to stand, and when you meet someone who comes to eat, tell them that the store is closed for half a day, Anu, you come with me, I want to cook myself." ”

He Xiu obeyed the arrangement of the owner and refused to welcome the smiling faces of the people who came to eat, and he made no compensation.

The owner cooked the meal himself, and a hearty meal was quickly settled. Anu prepared the carriage and went to Guan's house with He Xiu.

He Xiu sat in the car and played with the bell, and said to Anu, "Brother Anu, you say, is the immortal who saved us still in Qiman Town?"

Anu drove the car and said leisurely, "I heard the shopkeeper say that the immortal is endlessly changing, and if he transforms into a mortal, you don't know even if he stands in front of you. ”

He Xiu looked up at the sky with a blurred look in his eyes, a touch of self-deprecation flashed at the corner of his mouth, and said, "Can we mortals become immortals?"

Anu touched He Xiu's forehead and laughed, "I don't have a fever, I said that your kid was haunted by female ghosts in the Hiding Mountain?" ”

"Then how did an immortal become an immortal?" the bell stopped turning in He Xiu's hand, and he asked.

Anu was stunned for a moment, and said solemnly, "Maybe he became an immortal after eating some elixir." ”

"Who made the elixir?"

"Of course it's an immortal!"

"And how did the immortal who made the elixir come from?

...

He Xiu threw out a series of contradictory question marks, and Anu was asked about doubting his life, and said casually, "Maybe he became an immortal with the help of some kind of treasure." ”

"Yes, yes, why didn't I think of that? Anugo, when did you become so smart?"

He Xiu's train of thought was brought into another angle by Anu's words, and he said, "You say, is this bell an immortal ascending treasure?"

Anu rolled his eyes at He Xiu and said teasingly, "He Xianren, Xiaomin, I only know that the next intersection is the Guan family, do you want me to help you fly over?"

He Xiu heard Anu laughing at himself in a corner, and gave him a fist, Anu returned him with a fist, and the two came to the Guan family's mansion in a fight.

He Xiu saw two Pixiu about one zhang tall sitting in front of the main gate of the Guanfu, and their whole bodies were green. The courtyard is high and wide, the eaves are stacked, and the golden "Guanfu" plaque is hung in the center of the courtyard.

The two servants in front of the door stood in the left and right directions with a shimmering expression, He Xiu finished sorting out his clothes, cleared his throat, and stepped forward to say, "He Xiu and Anu of Huipeng Lou were ordered by the owner of my house to send sixty-six boxes of delicacies and eight altars of 100-year-old elixir to your mansion as scheduled. I hope that the little brother will return to the master. ”

A servant on the left replied, "The master has already commanded, please come with me." ”

He Xiu and Anu led the carriage through the back door and entered the Guanfu.

It was the first time that He Xiuchang was so old that he entered the place where the rich lived, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous, but he couldn't hide his curiosity to look around, and Anu's neck was twisting from side to side.

After walking for half a pillar of incense, He Xiu saw a clear dead lake, only to see lotus flowers holding umbrellas, water lilies comparing hearts, and then spitting hibiscus in the mouth of flowers.

On the shore of the lake, a light boat is moored, and a gazebo is reflected in the middle of the lake.

The breeze blew across He Xiu's cheeks, making him feel intoxicated, and he said in his heart, it is really the best place to cultivate his mind.

The two of them put the food here and returned the same way, Anu couldn't help but say, "I have long heard that the Guan family has a mountain of money and food, and today is really an eye-opener for me." ”

He Xiu led the carriage and said drunkly, "It's really a fairyland on earth, if I can stay here for one night, I'm willing to die." ”

"Hmph, don't be ashamed!" a young man's voice appeared behind the two of them.

He Xiu looked back differently, the young man in front of him had sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a handsome face, dressed in white, with a black belt wrapped around his waist, the paper fan in his hand was spinning, and his eyes revealed a light malice.

Seeing this, Anu tore at the corner of He Xiu's clothes, realizing that he didn't want to deal with this person, and He Xiu also thought about not making extraneous branches here, so he continued to return with a dull head.

Unexpectedly, the young man in white spoke again, "Are you two going to rush to pick up rotten vegetables and coarse food?"

He Xiu didn't look back, and walked straight forward, and Anu also quickened his pace.

"Don't worry, don't worry, there are so many leftovers in the Guan Mansion that even the dogs are too lazy to eat, I think, it will pity you, haha..."

He Xiu couldn't bear it anymore and turned around and said, "I often hear that there are many cats and dogs in Guanfu, and the two of us were panicked along the way, but we were still chased and bitten by a white-haired vicious dog here. I wonder if Childe has seen it?"

"You..." The young man in white had a red face, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak

"Hee-hee... Huh..."

A crisp and delicate girl's laughter came from the houses to the west.

The three people present all heard the laughter, but no one looked for someone, only looked for the present.

The white-clothed young man's eyes widened angrily, the veins on his neck were about to burst out, and he said sharply, "Okay, you wild boy, you dare to speak insulting and insult the master, this Liang is over, you give the master and I wait." ”

The young man in white glanced at He Xiu viciously, and walked away with heavy steps.

"Hehe... Hee-hee-hee..."

From the house to the west came the delicate laughter of the maiden.

He Xiu and Anu walked out of the Guanfu, He Xiu sat in the carriage sullenly, Anu comforted and said, "I have seen this kind of person a lot, so I should treat it as if it never happened."

He Xiu said: "The Guan family gave porridge to the victims for a month, and our neighbors praised and thanked for their virtues, why did we meet such a villain who spoke badly today, is the Guan family's soup soup for the victims to see?"

"The thoughts of their big families are not something that we ordinary people can read, so we just need to stay away from them. Anu reminded.

He Xiu still felt that there was something suspicious, but the facts in front of him made him only believe what he saw.
