Chapter 12: The Bitterness of the World

Li Yitian has been in the rivers and lakes for a month, saying that he has experienced the rivers and lakes, but he has broken into the world.

For Li Yitian, today's days are nothing more than to be an ordinary ordinary person and experience the life of ordinary people around firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.

One of the things that made Wu Shuai and Mo Lin wonder the most was the astonishing speed at which Li Yitian integrated into this kind of life.

At this moment, Li Yitian was squatting in front of a vendor selling sugar gourd strings to bargain, and Li Yitian came up to cut the sugar gourd strings in half.

The peddler was so angry that he was about to pick people up, Li Yitian didn't care about it and said with a smile: "Don't mind, you see that the three of us buy three strings of sugar gourds, this is a big business."

If you sell it to children, you have to wait for three families with children who are willing to spend this spare money.

You may not be able to sell it until half the morning, and if you think that the price is low now, how about I add another penny to you?"

The peddler stared at the young man in front of him, muttering in his heart, did he meet his peers?

Looking at the young man dressed like a rich man, how can he be more picky than himself?

There were three people on the other side, and the hawker weighed his combat strength and felt that there was no chance of winning, so he had to greet the customer with a smile: "This master, don't entertain the little ones."

This small business is a small business, and the family is counting on this stall to live, so I will sell you a string for three cents, and you won't pester me, okay?"

Li Yitian's face ached, and he broke off: "Okay!

Just give me three strings of three cents as you said. “

After speaking, Li Yitian took out nine cents and slapped it into the hawker's hand, and before the hawker could react, he pulled out three strings of the largest sugar gourd from the stall and swaggered away.

The vendor was stunned and sighed that he didn't go out today and didn't see Huang Li, and met such a superlative.

Li Yitian divided two strings of sugar gourds to Mo Lin in men's clothing and Wu Handsome who had been covering his face on the side.

Then he took a bite of a bright red sugar gourd, and said with a look of enjoyment: "Well, the sugar gourd in this house is very sweet, the sugar skin is so thick, and the three pennies are really worth it." I'll come here next time to buy it. ”

Brother Wu Shuai looked at Li Yitian, who was leisurely and complacent, looking like a folk prodigal, and was speechless.

I can only sigh: "Yi Tian, in fact, in addition to protecting you when I went out of the cabinet this time, I also had a task to prevent you from being deceived by the folk scoundrels and becoming penniless."

But looking at the current situation, you are more familiar with these charlatan scams than the people in the market.

Where did you learn these trivial things from the prince who doesn't touch the spring water with your ten fingers and stays at home?"

Li Yitian let out a long sigh, looked compassionate, and fooled him seriously: "Brother Ang, I am the prince of Great Qin, so I naturally have to understand the daily life of the people of Qin.

I have to empathize with that, otherwise how can a person in a high temple know what the people need and govern benevolently?"

Li Yitian's appearance was joking at first glance, but Angkor's expression was a little sluggish, and he said in a heavy tone: "Yes, the most bitter thing in the world is this Haohao Qiantou."

The princes will lay ambush countless corpses at the word of their words, and countless wives will be separated and physically disabled.

If one day you ascend to the highest position in the world, don't forget what you said today. ”

Seeing the sad thing that touched Angkor, Li Yitian couldn't help but straighten up, ignoring the strange eyes of passers-by. Facing Angkor, he shook it to the ground, and said in a solemn tone: "Be taught." ”

At this time, Wu Shuai Brother was embarrassed, and hurriedly helped Li Yitian up and said, "I just have a little feeling, Yi Tian doesn't need to make such a big gift."

This trip was supposed to say that I would let go of the identity of the prince, but I fell in love. ”

Li Yitian blinked and pinched his voice to imitate the woman's voice, and said a witty remark sharply: "Wu Langjun's bleak expression can make the little woman's delicate heart ache."

Where can I care if my identity will be revealed?"

Wu Shuai shook his head and scolded with a smile: "You disgusting killer." It's really not the demeanor of a royal noble, how did the young hero who fought into the 100,000 army with a gun become a freak like you. ”

Li Yitian smiled without saying a word, turned his head and saw that Mo Lin's sugar gourd string was still untouched, so he grabbed the next one and returned it to her, chewing the sugar gourd in his mouth.

While chewing, he slurred his words and said to Mo Lin: "Beauty, why don't you just watch the play and don't eat? But are you afraid that I will poison you? You should rest assured that I have eaten a sugar gourd." ”

Mo Lin's eyes drooped slightly, and he looked at the red and lovely sugar gourd in his hand and explained lightly: "I have no power to restrain the chicken now, what should Your Highness do, why do you need to poison the slave?"

The slaves and maids just have never tasted such folk food, and they are just worried about getting tired of it. ”

Mo Lin bowed his head lightly, his cherry mouth opened slightly, and two rows of thin jade teeth gently bit a sugar gourd, biting it into his mouth with a slight force and chewing slowly, the action was indescribably elegant and beautiful.

Li Yitian watched the beauty eat, and heard the tempting words of "how to do it", and couldn't help but appear like a pig brother.

"Goo-dong" swallowed a mouthful of saliva. This beauty is really unbearable, and thinking that there will be a long time to see and not eat in the future, Li Yitian couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Really, what kind of gentleman did I pretend to be before, I can't live this day, I really have my brain in water." ”

However, Li Yitian felt that he couldn't just let his sister tease, and he was determined to fight back.

So just when Mo Lin had just bitten the last sugar gourd, he snatched the skewer again, and asked her with a smile, "How is it?

Mo Lin looked at his childish actions, and his heart was calm, but he was silent on the surface: "This food tastes really delicious, thank you Your Highness." If Your Highness wants to eat this last one, take it. ”

Li Yitian smiled and put the sugar gourd into his mouth, and after eating, he sighed: "The sugar gourd that this beauty has bitten is different, and the taste seems to be much more delicious than my string." ”

After saying that, he squinted his eyes and peeked at Mo Lin's reaction, but to Li Yitian's disappointment, Mo Lin still didn't react.

Not to mention shyness, even his expression didn't fluctuate.

Mo Lin looked at Li Yitian, his mouth was light but the knife was bloody: "Your Highness doesn't have to be like this, if you really like the slave's willow posture, you can directly order the slave and maid to sleep tonight, and the slave and maid will not refuse." ”

Li Yitian was shocked, this is a ruthless person, he definitely can't afford to provoke her, so it's better to stay away.

He hurriedly snorted and vaguely said, "Jie, the road is far away, and we haven't found a place to stay today."

While it's still early, hurry up and find the inn. After speaking, Li Yitian pulled Wu Shuai, who was watching the play on the side, and hurriedly walked forward.

When Li Yitian couldn't see it, Mo Lin's face suddenly turned slightly red, and he stroked his hair lightly and muttered, "What an interesting person." ”

Unexpectedly, Mo Lin's behavior was seen by Wu Shuai, who was secretly observing.

Wu Shuai looked at Li Yitian, who had no face to turn back, and Mo Lin, who followed silently, and suddenly felt so young.

There are always some beautiful things like small flowers on the side of the road, which I usually don't care about, but when I look back inadvertently, I can see the heart-warming scenery.

The three of them were anxious to find an inn to live in, but they were unfamiliar with the terrain and structure when they first arrived here, and they could not find it.

The street where the three of them were located was quite remote, with only a few elderly people basking in the sun in front of the door.

Angkor also went to ask for directions, but unfortunately several people were too old to hear what he said, or they couldn't tell the meaning for a long time.

Just when Angkor couldn't hold back his efforts to observe the neighborhood from a high place, a dirty boy came by the side of the road.

The boy was about twelve or thirteen years old, skinny, and wore a huge robe that did not match his figure, and the robe was so dirty that it was no longer visible in its original color.

The robe was covered with patches, which should have been picked up and worn by others who were not wanted.

Although the boy's clothes were tattered, his big eyes were spinning around and he looked very clever.

Xiao Tong ran over and nodded to Li Yitian and the others, and said with a flattering face: "A few uncles are from out of town, right?"

The small one looks at where you ask where the inn is, and it happens that the small one knows a place, and the room is clean and affordable.

If you don't dislike it, the little one will show you the way?"

Li Yitian thought it was quite interesting, looked at Xiao Tong, and said with a smile: "Oh? There is such a good thing, I don't know how much money we need to pay you to lead the way?"

Xiao Tong looked at him, his mind turned quickly, and he said cautiously: "This uncle, why don't you take you to see the inn first." If you are satisfied, you can reward a small amount of money, so that the small one can buy a steamed bun and have something to eat, and the small one will be grateful. ”

Li Yitian nodded, thinking that this little boy was also clever, at a young age, so well-trained, when he was a child from a poor family, he would just give him more rewards after arriving at the inn.

Several people followed the children all the way, and on the way, the children introduced them to the local customs.

Which restaurant has delicious food, which places are said to have good scenery and foreign tourists like to go, which places have ruffians and bullies who can't go, and which people are unscrupulous people wandering in the countryside must be careful.

Mo Lin is a woman after all, and when she heard that the child was running for a living, she couldn't help but ask: "You have gone out to beg for a living at such a young age, don't your parents care about you?"

When the child heard her question, his expression darkened and said: "Back to the girl's words, the little one's parents died when he was a child, and he grew up eating hundreds of meals, and he has been begging for a living in this place. ”

Mo Lin apologized: "I'm really sorry for this younger brother, it's me who talked too much and mentioned your sadness." ”

Xiao Tong shook his head: "Don't worry, the girl is willing to make amends to Xiao, which shows that the girl is a good person." I've heard a lot of jokes here since I was a child, and I don't care about these anymore. ”

As soon as he spoke, the inn arrived, and the name of the inn was also interesting - the Blessed Inn.

When a few people arrived at the inn, the boy skillfully shouted inside: "Shopkeeper, a distinguished guest is here!"

A loud "coming, coming" came out first, and then a fat man in sackcloth greeted him.

The boss's surname is Liu, he is six feet tall, has a kind face, and is very enthusiastic when entertaining the three of them.

After some inquiry, the three of them settled on three upper rooms.

Then Li Yitian walked to the waiting boy on the side, touched his head, took out twenty yuan and handed it to him, and said, "Hard work, this is the money you deserve to lead the way." ”

Xiao Tong took the copper coin, his eyes were bright, and he thanked him again and again: "Thank you, uncle, thank you, uncle."

I wish you and your wife a long life and an early birth to a precious son. ”

Li Yitian and Mo Lin were made to cry and laugh by his words, although Li Yitian has a lustful heart, but he has no lustful guts, and the two are still innocent so far.

Li Yitian stole a glance at Mo Lin's face, and silently recited the child's words in his heart, don't mind the ruthless.

I saw that the shopkeeper Liu quietly pulled Xiao Tong aside, handed him a paper bag, whispered a few words, and Xiao Tong left.

Mo Lin looked at them with a curious expression, and couldn't help but ask Li Yitian, "What are they doing here?"

Li Yitian didn't answer, but Wu Shuaige spoke: "This is a deal between Xiao Tong and the boss, he brought guests to the inn, and the boss paid him some remuneration."

As for the paper bag, it should be some leftovers given to him by the shopkeeper. This is the child's way of survival. ”

Mo Lin suddenly sighed with emotion: "Among the countries, the Qin State is the strongest.

But I didn't expect that not only my Yan Kingdom, but also the Qin Kingdom would have such poor people.

But I still don't know anything, why did you give him so little bounty?"

Li Yitian took a sip of tea, his eyes were full of vicissitudes: "You have a noble background, so naturally you don't know the truth in these little things."

If I give him more money, I will hurt him.

What would those ruffians, beggars older than him, do if they saw that he had a huge amount of money?

Although twenty wen is not much, it is enough to ensure that he has no worries about food and clothing for a few days.

For a beggar like him, it is the greatest happiness to be able to live a few days without worrying about food and clothing. “

Mo Lin and Wu Shuai were silent, and there was a word that neither of them asked.

Mo Lin doesn't know, how did you know that, why do you have a faint feeling of empathy when you say this?

After dinner, the three of them went into the room to rest, and there was nothing to do all night.
