Chapter 17: What's Next, Tracking the Plan?!
The next day, the mother-in-law appeared in the store at the same time, still opening the door without a bell, and entering the door so casually, the enchantment in the store had no effect on her, or it was not intentional. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
There seems to be a pact between her and Wu, and she takes a pot of wine every day as promised. When I came back the next day, I took yesterday's white porcelain pot with nothing in it, except that it was wrapped in a piece of blue floral linen. Hand it to Wu, and when he came out, he still had the white porcelain pot in his hand, but it was full of autumn dew in it.
The third day is also, and the fourth day is also true.
This kind of situation made Xun who was silently watching in his eyes very curious, because of the unpleasantness of the first day, he always secretly hid in the dark when the woman entered the store. It's not because he's afraid of her, it's just that he doesn't feel the need to contradict her, so as not to ruin Wu's plan, although he doesn't know what attention Wuxin is paying attention to.
Just looking at his behavior in the past few days, it is already very suspicious that Wuwu, who has not made wine for a long time, will give away the wine he has treasured for many years to others. I don't know what this woman is about.
Therefore, he had a small decision in his heart, that is, to follow the old woman and find out what she was all about.
On the fifth day, the mother-in-law came on time, and when she was lying in front of the window, she saw her figure through the dusty window, still in the strange dress of flowers, carrying a white porcelain pot wrapped in blue cloth in her hand, and the crutch that almost hit him on the head hung on her wrist. With a brisk posture and a little song on her lips, this little old lady seems to be in a good mood today.
What I wonder is how she didn't touch the wind chimes, crossed the barrier, and opened the door. Normally, when you open the door and enter, you will definitely touch the wind chimes on the edge of the door, but since she appeared, the wind chimes have not remembered to ring at all.
Through the window, he slowly got up, lying on the window with a cat face, squinting his eyes, staring closely at his mother-in-law's every move.
The mother-in-law walked to the door, waited for a while, and then took the cane hanging on the wrist of her left hand with her right hand, and saw her, with the cane, knock on the ground three times, then "knock knock" twice, and then "knock knock" three times. After a moment of silence, she put her cane back on her wrist, then held her right hand to the doorknob, and with a slight turn, the door opened.
The wind chimes did not swing at all because the door was opened, but stood still, and even the wind did not blow it, which was frozen.
Looking for the doubts in his heart, he suddenly found out what he had just done, the old woman was actually lifting the barrier of the door, why did she know about the cracking technique of Wu, who is she?
He jumped off the ledge and hid into the shadows, secretly observing her movements. It's just that what disappointed him was that after the woman entered the store, she was always talking crazy, and she didn't forget to eat tofu without it, and teased herself.
The mother-in-law handed the pot in her hand to Wu, and when she saw the pale hands taking the pot, her eyes flashed, and her heart flashed with a clear meaning, "It seems that time is running out!"
However, there was a smile on her face, full of praise,
"The boss's wine is really a rare treasure in the Six Realms, the vintage is enough, the taste is mellow, it is really a fine wine, it is wonderful!"
"Mother-in-law, just like it. There was no faint smile, and there was no trace of waves on the face of the frost and snow, and he was respectful.
The mother-in-law's brass bell-like eyes smiled unabated, shining, happily pointing to the pot in his hand, and his mouth chirped, as if he was still reminiscing about the taste of the wine, but there was no wine in the wine pot for a long time, and the meaning was still unfinished.
"Naturally, I love it very much, mother-in-law, I don't know what kind of luck I had, I can drink the wine you brewed yourself, it's really rare!"
What she said is true, only the man in front of him in the six realms can make such a good wine, but if he wants to drink such a pot, he can't even think of it, with his identity and character, I am afraid that the person above does not have the honor to taste it, how can it be her turn. There is only profit to be sought in himself, and this is what he needs.
Such a man is really not simple.
"You are tormenting me, this wine is naturally for people who love wine, not all say that it is difficult to find a confidant, and the same is true of this wine. It is a blessing to meet someone like my mother-in-law who appreciates it. He laughs
"Hahaha, boss, I just love to hear it, it's a good confidant, no matter who calls my mother-in-law, I don't like to drink without wine, let alone good wine! I haven't been so happy for a long time. The mother-in-law laughed heartily, even the feathers of her eyebrows were smiling, and the whole person was brilliantly radiant.
And just standing aside with a faint smile, thin lips are light, not stained with dust, and stand upright.
The two talked for a while, and the mother-in-law seemed to remember an important matter, looked around, and didn't see a familiar figure, so she leaned over and walked to the decayed desk, and looked at Wu with a smile in her deep eyes.
"Boss, I said that your cat is really disobedient, how long has it been, and it is still playing outside, it is really unruly. ”
"Mother-in-law, looking for him is just a child, and it is inevitable that he will be a little playful. The corners of his mouth smiled in a refreshing voice.
"I think he's spoiled by you, and he's not as childish as you think. The kitten was very smart, and when she knew that her mother-in-law was coming, she ran away. What's the matter, I'm really afraid of my mother-in-law, I'll take him back and serve it as a drink. ”
She pretended to be angry and knocked on the floor with her cane, making a heavy sound, but her eyes were staring directly at the window, and she saw the shadow that had entered the dark corner of the wall, and her eyes were clear and clear.
The shadow just now was Xun who was hiding there early in the morning, he thought that his whereabouts would not be discovered, but he overestimated his ability, and he didn't know that all his movements fell on the two people in the house, but they didn't break it.
Wu Tian also saw him, glanced at the darkness, and said gently,
"Mother-in-law, don't say that, I don't think he deliberately avoided you. ”
"Don't look at my mother-in-law, I'm a lot older, this head is not so confused, don't keep helping him say good things, I know. She shook her head, not thinking that what he said was what the kitten had in mind, and hummed.
"What my mother-in-law said is that I will talk about him when he comes back. He replied disobediently, with a sincere look.
When the mother-in-law saw his attitude, she knew that she was just talking, and said with heavy eyes,
"Sometimes, if you blindly protect, you will not help him, but will harm him. It's always better to know something than to know the outcome, you know. She meant something, and her eyes were full of meaning.
Looking at her black eyes like a sea of blue seas, her heart trembled, her eyes were hazy and unpredictable through the round mirror, her face remained unchanged, and his emotions were well hidden, but she knew that such a calm person would hide so calmly because he hid too many things.
The voice was low like a stone sinking into a valley, and it sounded in the house,
"Well, I know. ”
Seeing him nodding, the mother-in-law's eyebrows relaxed, and she smiled,
"It's good to know, if you indulge him like this, sooner or later it will ride on your head. It didn't seem to be enough image, and he pointed to the dark place hatefully, and then saw that he still had that light and light expression, and waved his hand again, "That's it, that's it, it's useless to talk more, I won't waste time here, if you don't leave, he really won't come back." ”
She took the white porcelain pot wrapped in blue floral cloth on the table, turned around and prepared to leave.
"Mother-in-law, go slowly!" said unhurriedly
As she opened the door, she turned her head and raised her hand holding the wine, pointing at it.
"Well, I'll drink this wine. ”
