The beggar was unkempt, with a stubble beard, holding a thick bowl with a notch, so dirty that he couldn't see his eyebrows clearly, but his figure didn't seem to be young anymore, and he was pushed by the old woman, he was stunned at first, and his cloudy eyes looked at several people, and suddenly somehow, the broken bowl in his hand fell, and it fell to smash with a "bang"!

The old woman was also startled, and felt strange, and just as she wanted to speak, the beggar had already swooped down to pick up the bowl. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Ling Fei frowned in disgust, and Ergou's father hurriedly walked over, "Don't pick it, it's useless to pick it, there are distinguished guests here, you can't afford to be disturbed, let's go quickly." ”

The beggar answered twice with a vague voice, and without looking up, he turned around and walked away.

"Don't blame the distinguished guests," Ergou's father came over and said with a smile, "This old man is a little unclear, my old woman is kind-hearted, and from time to time I pity him for something to eat." I'm sorry to disturb the distinguished guests. ”

"There don't seem to be many people in this area. Zhang Shaohan said mildly.

Ergou's father nodded again and again: "It's a little biased, and I don't know why he begged for food here, and he is not afraid of starvation." Earlier, my wife saw that he was so hungry that he only had half a breath left, so she showed kindness, and let him rest in the back stables for the night. ”

As he spoke, he glared at the old woman angrily, who silently cleaned up the bowl at the door, and remained silent.

At this time, the second dog, who had settled the horses, also came in from the back hall, and just when he heard the old man say this, he looked over here and went over to help his mother clean up.

"Do you want some food?" Ergou's father looked at the old woman and his son, seemed to sigh helplessly, turned his head and asked with a smiling face.

They had already used early for noon, and they had not moved much in the carriage, and it was not yet the middle of Shen Shi, so it was really early for dinner.

Mu Qing looked at a few people: "No need, I'll talk about it later." ”

"Okay, well, if you have an order, you can call it. Ergou's father said in a loud voice, and turned to walk towards the old woman and son, "If you haven't gone up to clean up the guest room, if you have anything to change, change it quickly." Ergou, quick, call your daughter-in-law to go with you. ”

Miaozhen walked over: "Let's clean up ourselves, please ask the store to lead the way." ”

Ergou's father responded, Miaozhen took Yuchun Xiaocui to take the luggage and bedding from the carriage, and followed the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law upstairs.

Er Ya didn't follow upstairs, but came over with a food box to open it, took out the dim sum inside one by one, and put it on the table.

Shen Nishang was really a little hungry, took a piece of rose cake, and as soon as she got it in her hand, she saw a black and thin little boy standing at the door of the back hall, looking at the rose cake in her hand with her fingers in his eyes.

Ergou came down from upstairs, followed Shen Nishang's line of sight, and hurriedly walked over, about to coax the child to the back.

"Daddy, I want to eat bread. The boy refused to go.

The second dog gestured a few times, his black face seemed to want to scare him, and the little boy curled his mouth and wanted to cry pitifully.

"Come here—" Shen Nishang smiled and beckoned to him.

Ergou was stunned for a moment, looked over, and Shen Nishang said gently: "Shopkeeper, it's okay, let the child come over." ”

Ergou let go of his hand, the child looked at his father timidly, and walked over under Shen Nishang's encouraging smile, Shen Nishang took a plate of dim sum, and picked up one or two other dim sum and put it on the plate and handed it to the child, Ergou followed the child one step away, and looked at Ling Fei and the three of them a little nervously.

Mu Qing and Zhang Shaohan both smiled at the child, the child took the plate and turned to look at his father, the second dog gestured again, and the child whispered thanks to Shen Nisheng, looking down at the delicate plate, a little overwhelmed.

Er Ya stepped forward and pulled the child to the side, lowered his head and seemed to say something, the child smiled, and walked to Er Gou with a saucer: "Dad, you eat." Ergou shook his head, and the child "pedaled" upstairs with a saucer.

Seeing that a few guests had no other instructions, Ergou stood down and went back to the counter inside.

Shen Nishang glanced at it and retracted her gaze, and when she turned around, she met Ling Fei's inquiring gaze, she bent her lower lip slightly, picked up the snack and ate it.

After a while, Miao Zhen walked down with Xiao Cuiyuchun, Xiao Fan and two guards.

"Miss, the tents in the room have been changed, do you want to go up and rest for a while?" asked Miaozhen.

Shen Nishang looked at the little fan, and the little fan smiled and nodded: "Sister Miaozhen is well prepared, and it has been changed in several rooms." ”

Miao Zhen is really proper, Shen Nishang couldn't be more satisfied with Mrs. Si's arrangement, if it was only Yuchun and the three of them, don't say that the bedding tent at this time, it would definitely be impossible to have the scalding cream earlier.

"Do you want to go up?" asked Shen Nisheng.

The three of them didn't mean to go up, Shen Nishang went upstairs by herself, not because she wanted to rest, but because she was on the road for a day, it was just a good time to bathe and wash the dust, and people would feel more comfortable.

Miaozhen also meant this, and when she got upstairs in the house, she asked Shen Nishang directly, and after Shen Nishang nodded, she told Xiaocui to go downstairs to prepare water.

Shen Nishang took a comfortable bath, and Miaozhen even took a bag of dried fragrant flowers from her luggage and put them in the bathtub.

Yuchun was a little devastated.

By Shen Nishang's side, she always thought that she was the most powerful, but at the end of the day, she realized that she needed to learn too much.

Shen Nishang changed her clothes and sat at the table, and Yuchun twisted her hair for her.

Myo Zhen is packing her luggage on the side.

The door was gently pushed open a crack, Shen Nishang smiled and beckoned to the little boy at the door, the child didn't seem to be so afraid, and walked in with a somewhat innocent and curious look.

"How old are you?" asked Shen Nishang.

The little boy stretched out five fingers of his right hand, as if it were not enough, and added the thumb of his right hand, side by side, before whispering, "Six years old." ”

"What's your name?" she asked again.

"Xiaobao. The child replied.

"Xiaobao, Xiaobao......"

As he was talking, a young woman's shout came from outside, and Xiaobao turned her head: "Mother-"

The woman poked her head out, stood in front of the door and said crampedly: "Xiaobao come out quickly, don't disturb the guests." ”

"It's okay. Shen Nishang smiled, "Sister-in-law, come in and sit down, I'm feeling a little bored, if you don't bother, can you talk to me?"

The woman hesitated a little, Miaozhen stepped forward and gently pulled her in and sat down: "Sister-in-law, don't be nervous, my young lady just wants to find someone to talk to, come in and sit down." ”

"The little woman can't speak. The woman was a little timid, and looked at her son uneasily, where Xiaocui had already taken halva and coaxed Xiaobao to sit next to her and eat.

"It's okay, sister-in-law. Shen Nishang pursed her lips and smiled, "I think your inn seems to be a family?"

"Hmm. The woman nodded, "Just my man and my parents-in-law, they are all a family." ”

"Why do you want to open an inn here, I heard that there is a town ahead, and if you open an inn here, I'm afraid the business is not so easy, right?" Shen Nishang smiled softly and kindly.

The woman saw Shen Nishang talking kindly to Miao Zhen, and Xiao Cui on the other side also coaxed Xiao Bao very happy, and gradually relaxed: "This is the boundary of Xialin Village, my father-in-law, mother-in-law and man are all from Xialin Village, the village is in the position of the mountain at the back of the mountain, it was bandits in the early years, and the family is gone, and there is still an old man, an old woman, and my man's eldest brother are all in trouble." The village is also full of relatives, and all of them are gone. The house in the village could not go back to live, and later the government paid some money, and my father-in-law originally wanted to go to the town to open an inn, but my mother-in-law was reluctant to give up her eldest son, so she built a house here. ”

"Xialin Village?" Shen Nishang was a little surprised, "Your in-laws and husband are both from Xialin Village?

Miaozhen and Yuchun glanced at Shen Nishang together.

"Miss, are you from Yunzhou?" the woman asked.

Shen Nishang nodded.

"No wonder. After saying this, the woman also let go, and said with a smile, "The Bai family was adopted by your general in Yunzhou, and it is rumored that it is like this outside, and my mother's family has relatives who are also from Yunzhou." When my man and I first got married, they said the same thing. I said that my man was from Xialin Village, but they still wouldn't believe it. ”

"yes, maybe it's all in a hurry. Shen Nishang also smiled, "That's a little wrong, but your family is really meritorious." ”

"Not really. The woman nodded very approvingly, and glanced at her son lovingly, "My mother-in-law can help the poor man when she sees it, and she also wants to give my uncle a blessing and a good baby in his next life." ”

"Your eldest uncle-" Shen Nishang paused, looking curious, "By the way, what happened at the beginning, can you tell me?"

The woman looked out the door: "It's nothing, in fact, everyone in the town and village near here knows ......"

Miaozhen took out a few silver bills with five poisonous shapes, Xiaobao played with joy and curiosity, and couldn't put it down, Miaozhen took a purse again, put the silver bills in it and hung it on Xiaobao's chest, and let him play with it by himself.

The woman paused: "It was all more than ten years ago, Miss wants to hear it, I'll talk about it." ”

The woman began to speak slowly, and there was not much difference between what the old man said in the tea house.

"Your father-in-law won't speak from that time on?" Shen Nishang thought thoughtfully.

The woman nodded.

"Didn't you ask the doctor to see it?" Shen Nishang asked, "Your father-in-law should be cured well if he is frightened, right?"

The woman shook her head: "Originally, my father-in-law and mother-in-law also asked for a doctor, but he refused to look at it, and then day by day, he didn't mention it." ”

"Reluctant?" Shen Nishang was stunned.

"I also listened to my mother-in-law. "The woman replied very honestly," my mother-in-law said that she was frightened, and when she said that she would ask for a doctor, he refused, and she was young at that time, and then my father-in-law said forget it. ”

"Has anyone from the government come to your prime minister to ask questions?" Shen Nishang asked again, "Did he see the appearance of those bandits, the number of people?"

"He was still young, and he couldn't speak later, what could he see?" the woman shook her head.

"Didn't see any of them?" Shen Nishang asked, "Didn't he mention it to you?"

Shen Nishang had seen the couple in sign language before, and knew that they could communicate.

The woman shook her head again, "He doesn't like me to mention these things—" After a pause, she looked back, and suddenly stood up, "Xianggong." ”

Ergou stood in front of the door and beckoned to Xiaobao, Xiaobao ran over and showed the purse and silver in his hand to Ergou, the woman walked over, and she wanted to say something but didn't say it.

Ergou pushed the woman, her thin cheeks were tense, and her mouth was pursed into a straight line, and the woman hurriedly took Xiaobao down.

Shen Nisheng's hair had been wrenched at this time, but she had been talking to the woman just now, so she scattered, she smiled slightly at Ergou, and Ergou turned around and left expressionlessly.

Shen Nishang looked at the empty door, and a touch of contemplation flashed in her eyes.

If at the beginning, she came with the idea of trying her luck, then at this moment, her intuition told her that she should have come to the right place.

Ergou is obviously hiding a secret.

Could it be that this secret is really related to Bai Yuanzhi's life experience?

Shen Nishang was a little confused.

She sorted out her thoughts, combined with the information she had received that day, and felt more and more that there was a lot to be interesting about.

Erya came up to report that dinner was ready, Shen Nishang nodded, asked Xiaocui to comb her hair briefly, and went downstairs.

Mu Qing and the three of them sat at the table, with wine glasses in front of several positions, Shen Nishang took a closer look and said with a smile: "Are you going to get drunk?"

Zhang Shaohan smiled and asked, "How many drinks do Miss Shen want?"

"Call me Ni Dress. Shen Nishang sat down, "It's all so familiar, Zhang Shaodong's family is still so polite." ”

"Zhang Shaodong's house?" Zhang Shaohan's handsome face brought out a bit of a relaxed smile, a little banter.

Shen Nishang blinked, and couldn't help laughing when she reacted instantly.

"Shaohan. Shen Nishang smiled, looked at the table, picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of wine for him, and then poured wine for Ling Fei and Mu Qing, "I don't know how to drink, just pour a glass for you." ”

"You can't just pour wine without drinking. Ling Fei took the wine jug from Shen Nisheng's hand, took the wine glass placed in the middle of the table, and poured it in front of Shen Nisheng, then raised his wine glass, and raised his phoenix eyes slightly, "Come, I respect you." ”

Mu Qing looked at Shen Nisheng, he knew that Shen Nishang would drink, on the twenty-eighth day of the year, in Rongsu Courtyard, everyone drank about the same that day, and he and Shen Nishang were still sober in the end.

Although Shen Nishang was also drinking for the first time that time, the amount of alcohol seemed to be ...... Not bad.

Ling Fei held his wine glass and did not move, looking at Shen Nishang fixedly.

Shen Nishang was quiet for a moment, picked up the wine glass and looked at the three people on the table: "That's it, don't mention anything else on this table, I'm the youngest, but I won't salute one by one, just this glass, I salute the three of you - along the way, thank you for accompanying and helping each other, I, Shen Nishang, thank you." ”

Without waiting for the three of them to speak, she did it first as respect, opened the bottom of the cup, and looked at the three of them with a smile.

Zhang Shaohan shook his head with a smile and took the lead in drinking.

Mu Qing also lowered his eyes and smiled, picked up the wine glass and drank it. (To be continued.) )
