Chapter 17: Summoned by Mrs. Shen

Li Mingcian really has a problem.

Shen Xiqiao smiled and watched the three brothers and sisters say goodbye, and then let Half Moon drive back to the city.

In all fairness, Shen Xiqiao likes Li Mingcian very much, he looks cute and smart, he doesn't have a sister, he feels very happy to spoil Li Mingchan.

And now......

Shen Xiqiao looked at Li Mingcia who was lying on the window and looked at Li Mingcia outside with a new expression, and he was full of joy.

Such a powerful child, but let him pick up the treasure, but where did her stone with magical power come from?

Dawan Village is quite far from Qishan County, and the road is a little rough, so the car walks a little slowly.

Seeing that noon had not yet arrived, Li Mingcian was very hungry and panicked.

Erya opened the bag and took out a few coarse breads, she looked at Shen Xiqiao embarrassedly: "Little boy, this cake is very rough, do you want to dislike it......"

Before Erya finished speaking, she saw Shen Xiqiao take out a packet of lo-mei and some fluffy white flour steamed buns from the wall box of the carriage.

"Half moon, stop first, let's eat first. Shen Xiqiao shouted outside, and then laid down the table.

The lo-mei on the table was a little cold, but it was still delicious. Li Mingcian ate steamed buns and lo-mei at the same time, feeling that he really couldn't eat enough.

Banyue leaned against the door of the car, with chicken legs in one hand and steamed buns in the other, and said triumphantly: "This is my wife's stew, and my wife's craftsmanship in making lo-mei is definitely this!"

As he spoke, Half Moon gave a thumbs up.

Shen Xiqiao raised his foot and gently kicked Banyue's buttocks, and Banyue snorted exaggeratedly, making everyone laugh.

Shen Xiqiao swallowed the food in his mouth and showed off to everyone with bent eyes: "My mother married my father with this skill back then. ”

Li Mingcian felt very interesting when he heard it, could it be that Shen Xianling was a big foodie?

After the group ate and drank enough, they leaned on the carriage to nap, and Li Jingming went out to chat with Banyue as a companion while catching the car, for fear that he would be sleepy and unable to catch the car.

Li Mingcian and the second girl slept next to each other, and the mouths of the two girls were slightly open, and they were still snoring a little because they were curled up in their necks.

Shen Xiqiao quietly opened his eyes, and then lightly opened Li Mingciao's baggage. I took a small coat away, and there was a strange pile of stones underneath.

Shen Xiqiao picked it up and looked at it for a moment, but he didn't see anything and put it back again.

After the carriage walked up the official road, the speed of the carriage increased significantly. After Li Mingcian woke up, he looked at the spacious official road and sighed: Sure enough, if you want to get rich, build a road first!

After Half Moon walked on the official road, he drove the car and ran recklessly, and soon they arrived at the county seat.

Qishan County is not prosperous, but it is not withered, it is a decent city.

There were not many people on the street, and Li Mingcian leaned on the window and looked at the ancient street market in a new way. There are many shops lined up, but there are not many customers inside. There are a lot of stalls outside, some selling noodles and some selling steamed buns......

When the carriage arrived in the backyard of the county government, Shen Xichuan waited by the door with a thin and tall guy, and when he saw the carriage, he raised his hand excitedly: "Hey, Qiao'er, you're back!"

Shen Xiqiao opened the door and smiled at Shen Xichuan: "You get out of the way, let's drive in directly!"

The county government is a five-entry house, and the last three are dedicated to the county master's family.

There is a beautiful pond in the yard, and there is a rockery with strange rocks on the edge of the pond.

Half Moon stopped the carriage, Shen Xiqiao was the first to jump down, and then he reached out and hugged Li Mingcian who leaned out, and the second girl was hugged by Li Jingming.

Shen Xichuan was no longer surprised, but the little guy next to him was very surprised.

Half Moon looked at him and grinned, and reached out and touched his head while driving the carriage: "Full moon, long time no see!"

Shen Xichuan held a fan in his hand, he took the fan and fanned it, and then smashed it on his hand: "Dad called you, you take Jingming over first, and I will take the little sisters of the Li family to my mother's place." ”

"What are you going to do with your mother?" asked Shen Xiqiao suspiciously.

Shen Xichuan coughed dryly, a little embarrassed: "There is a female guest at home, so you can't go to see your mother?"

Shen Xiqiao nodded: "That's right, then you can go." He looked down at Erya and Li Mingcia: "Don't be afraid, my mother is fine." ”

Erya took Li Mingcian's hand a little nervously and nodded, Shen Xiqiao glanced at the sisters a few times with some unease, and then took Li Jingming away.

Shen Xichuan smiled like a tiger: "Sisters, let's go." Hey, by the way, Full Moon, you go and arrange a room. ”

Shen Xichuan led the way in front, and Li Mingcian and Erya held hands and followed behind, looking at the interior of the house as they walked.

The house is very boxy and neat, unlike the house with carved beams and paintings in the TV series, Shen Xiqiao's house is quite simple. There are not so many expensive decorations, but more of a patchwork of vegetation.

Mrs. Shen waited for the two sisters in the reception room, and Shen Xichuan sent them down before leaving.

Her hair was meticulously combed neatly, with two jasper hairpins in her bun, a pair of eyebrows with sharp eyebrows, a high nose bridge, and thin lips slightly hooked. Dressed in a royal blue embroidered peony dress, she was very graceful, with a pair of jasper bracelets on her white wrists.

Li Mingcian quickly lowered his head as soon as he rolled his eyes, and then knelt down respectfully with Erya to salute.

Mrs. Shen bowed slightly, raised her hand to pick up a cup of tea, held the tea in her left hand and pulled the tea surface with the lid in her right hand.

Li Mingcian and Erya lowered their heads and did not speak again, and Mrs. Shen slowly drank tea without speaking.

Li Mingcian looked at his worn-out little shoes, and wondered how to deal with Mrs. Shen. Mrs. Shen is not easy to mess with at first glance, she has no interests with her, and she also sets rules for herself as soon as she enters the door, stinky problems!

After Mrs. Shen finished drinking a cup of tea, one maid handed a handkerchief, and the other maid filled the teacup with water.

Mrs. Shen wiped her hands and sat upright, and looked at Sister Li Mingchan with some mockery: "You can also sit." ”

"Yes. The two sisters answered, and then took a seat at the bottom.

Xu saw that Mrs. Shen was very difficult to mess with, and the second girl was very nervous, so nervous that she was a little scared. She hung her head and didn't dare to look at Mrs. Shen.

Li Mingcian didn't have the same mood as her, but she only felt very unhappy, she lowered her head slightly with Erya, and only looked around with a pair of eyes.

The furnishings in the room are very simple, and the furniture is also very simple, Li Mingcian only looks at the surface, and only thinks that the Shen County Ling family does not seem to be very rich.

Mrs. Shen looked at the two sisters carefully, and then found Li Mingcian pretending to be cowardly.

"Little girl, what's your name?" asked Mrs. Shen with interest, looking at Li Mingcian.

Li Mingcian knew that Erya was scared, and Erya didn't have a name, so she answered.

Li Mingcian raised his head, his eyes were dark and shining: "Mrs. Hui, the name of the maiden's sister is Li Chunhe, and the name of the maiden's name is Li Mingchan." ”

Mrs. Shen paused for a moment when she heard the hand that touched the teacup, and then she looked at Li Mingcian with a smile, and felt a little smiling: "Is there anything special about your name?"

Li Mingcian felt a little drumming in her heart when she heard Mrs. Shen's words, and she suddenly reacted that Mrs. Shen might be testing something.

Li Mingciao's hands were twisted together, and her dangling feet swayed around when she sat on the chair: "The folk girl doesn't know." ”

Mrs. Shen let out an "oh", took a sip of the teacup, and then lowered her eyelashes.

Li Mingciao's fingers tapped on his leg again and again, and then he figured out Mrs. Shen's intentions. She felt that eight or nine was inseparable from ten for explosives, her little cicada.

This is the name that Li Mingcia gave to the explosives herself, especially when she saved her from danger several times, she was very grateful to her little baby, so she called the dynamite little Mingcida.

Mrs. Shen looked up and saw Li Mingcian in a daze, and she was still in a daze above board. Looking at Erya again, she lowered her head and trembled a little.

Mrs. Shen put down the teacup and smiled: "Ming Cicada, how old are you?"

Li Mingcian was shouted back to her senses, she was very surprised to see Mrs. Shen smile, and then quickly lowered her head: This Mrs. Shen is afraid that she is holding back.

"Mrs. Hui, the folk girl is seven years old. ”

Sure enough, Mrs. Shen then asked......

"Singing cicadas, our land here has been a little dry recently, I heard that the dragon king in your village is very spiritual, and he has appeared several times, do you say that I should go and pray for rain?"

Li Mingcian raised his head, his big eyes were pure in a row: "This folk girl doesn't know, madam, she has appeared a few times, but once she blew up a fish, once she blew up the house, and once she injured her son, and the most recent time she injured Chen Bo." ”

The other times, Li Mingcian didn't know if others knew it, but she felt that it was better for her not to say it.

Mrs. Shen looked at Li Mingcian and no longer looked away: "You are all here, right?"

When Li Mingcian heard this, she felt that Mrs. Shen might have any doubts about herself, but she was still pure: "Yes, but there are other people with me every time." ”

Mrs. Shen nodded, and then her eyes narrowed slightly: "Ming Cicada, just now when you said that when the Dragon King appeared, what did you mean by 'fried'?"

Li Mingcian didn't lower his head anymore when he heard this, but secretly gave a thumbs up to Mrs. Shen in his heart. Sure enough, the ginger is still old and spicy.

Li Mingcian looked at Mrs. Li innocently and tilted her head: "Madam, this word was coined by the folk girl based on the word 'fryer'. Because every time the dragon king appears, there is a 'boom', like a fryer. ”

Mrs. Shen laughed when she heard the "flutter": "Okay kid, I called you over, one is to meet you and fulfill the master's obligations, and the other is to ask about the dragon king's manifestation."

After all, this is our border, and if someone uses the dragon king's manifestation to make trouble, it will be very difficult to deal with it. ”

Li Mingcian listened and nodded.

"Good boy, go and rest. Mrs. Shen said with a smile, and then glanced at a maid beside her, "You come and take them." ”

"Yes, the slave and maid are gone. ”

"The folk girl retired. ”

Walking out of the reception room, Erya's legs and feet were still trembling, Li Mingcian reached out and hugged her, and then she whispered a few words of comfort to Erya.

The two sisters live in the same room, and their baggage has been placed on the table by the full moon.

The room was very spacious, with a large carved bed.

Li Mingcian pulled her baggage, and was relieved to find that there was no shortage of explosives, she put the baggage in the cupboard and sat on the chair.

Erya packed up her things and sat down, and the two of them took the water and drank it slowly.

Li Mingciao's eyes rolled, and then she noticed that there was something wrong with the curtains of the room, she walked over and lifted them, and there was a dress with black and red blood scabs underneath.
