Chapter 12: A Blessing in Disguise

When Ye Zijuan looked at Ye Ziqi again, she returned to her previous expression. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Ye Zijuan couldn't help but wonder if she had seen it wrong just now.

When Ye Zijuan wanted to confirm again, Ye Ziqi had already said to Ye Zixu: "Didn't you just say that you wanted to take me to see the Zhao family's granary?

"Good. ”

Ye Zixu led people from the path by the kitchen to the back of the tiled house of the Zhao family's courtyard, and the three of them found that there was an inconspicuous mud room behind the tiled house. The tiled house is not big, but it is full of grain.

Ye Zijuan saw the food inside and said "wow": "We don't have to go hungry in the future!"

Ye Zicheng and Ye Zixu were also infected by Ye Zijuan's happiness, and they were also overjoyed. However, it was quickly doused by Ye Ziqi's basin of cold water: "Do you know how to cook?"

Ye Zicheng and Ye Zijuan subconsciously looked at Ye Zixu.

Ye Zixu said helplessly: "I will wash and burn, but I really can't cook." ”

Of course, Ye Ziqi would, but she didn't want Ye Zicheng and Ye Zijuan to be suspicious. Ye Zijuan is simple, and she hasn't found anything yet. But Ye Zicheng, Ye Ziqi had long known that he had suspicions, but he didn't say it. If she cooks again, let alone Ye Zicheng, even Ye Zijuan can't hide it.

You can see and touch it, but you can't eat it, what is this called? Ye Zijuan complained: "Isn't so much food a waste?"

Ye Ziqi said: "This will not be. We won't burn it, but Uncle Li and Uncle Zhou will burn it!"

Ye Zixu said: "You mean that we will take the grain to the inn and let Uncle Li and Uncle Zhou burn it for us to eat?"

Ye Ziqi said "En".

Ye Zicheng said: "We can't always trouble Uncle Li, Uncle Zhou, right?"

Ye Ziqi said: "I have already thought about this. In the future, we can ask Li Bo and Zhou Bo to teach us to cook and cook. ”

Ye Zicheng said: "Wouldn't this be more troublesome for them?"

Ye Ziqi said: "There is something I have always wanted to discuss with you, and now that you are here, I don't need to find another time." ”

Ye Ziqi's words made Ye Zicheng and Ye Zijuan a little puzzled, what day and moment were they not together? What do you say to discuss things without finding another time? But the two didn't say what they had in their hearts, and quietly waited for Ye Ziqi to say what they wanted to discuss.

While the three of them were waiting, Ye Ziqi said: "Zicheng, Zijuan, you also know that I have often been on the way to the merchants in the past two days, but I haven't told you why. ”

Ye Ziqi paused and looked at the three of them, and in the eyes of the three of them, he continued: "Because I want to know why the two inns of Li Bo and Zhou Bo have no business. It stands to reason that in such a place, the business of the two inns should be very good, but this is not the case. We have been favored by Li Bo and Zhou Bo for many years, and I want to do something for them. ”

"Do you have a way?" Although he has only been with Ye Ziqi for a short time, Ye Zixu believes that Ye Ziqi will not say this for no reason.

"Yes. Yesterday, I didn't dare to tell Uncle Li and Uncle Zhou, but today," Ye Ziqi looked at the grain in the mud room and said, "You can try it." ”

Ye Zicheng said: "What is the solution?"

"Since last night, we haven't had a good rest, we have rested first. When you have a good rest, you will go to discuss with Li Bo and Zhou Bo. Ye Ziqi didn't want to go to the two inns to find someone at this time because he didn't want to disturb the two of them to entertain guests, although the two inns didn't see guests all day long, and sometimes there was no one. It's just that the body that didn't feel tired just now suddenly became tired after saying the word rest.

Not only Ye Ziqi, but the other three also felt the same way, so they went to rest first with confusion.

The Zhao family has three rooms, one of which is occupied by the injured man, and there are two rooms left. It is natural that Ye Ziqi and Ye Zijuan are in one room, and Ye Zicheng and Ye Zixu are in one room.

By the time the four of them had rested and woken up, it was already time to apply. After eating the leftover rice in the morning, Ye Ziqi and Ye Zicheng, Ye Zixu went to the inn, while Ye Zijuan stayed behind to take care of the injured man.

After walking for about half an hour, the three of them came to the Li Family Inn, which was closer to the Zhao family. The reason why it is said to be the Li Family Inn is because the inn has no name at all, and only two red lanterns are used to indicate that it is an inn.

"Sister Hei, Brother Hei, are you here?" Li Tiezhu, that is, the shopkeeper of the Li family's inn, saw the two of them barely showing a smile, and saw Ye Zixu with them, very strange: "Why did Xiaodong come here with them?"

Seeing Li Tiezhu's expression, Ye Ziqi knew that there were no merchants in the inn today.

Ye Ziqi said before Li Tiezhu said sorry or something like that: "Uncle Li, we are not here to eat today, we have something to discuss with you and Uncle Xu." Then he said to Ye Zicheng: "You go and see if Uncle Zhou is okay, if it's okay, let him come here." ”

Ye Ziqi knew very well in his heart that there was no business here, and there would be no business in Zhou Ji. Sure enough, in less than two quarters of an hour, Ye Zicheng and Zhou Dapeng came to Li Ji Inn.

"Sister Hei, Brother Hei said that you have something to tell me and Old Man Li, what is the matter?" Zhou Dapeng showed his shining voice as soon as he saw Ye Ziqi.

Ye Ziqi, who was originally sitting on a chair in the lobby, got up and said, "Uncle Zhou, let's sit down and talk." ”

After Zhou Dapeng sat down, Ye Ziqi and Ye Zicheng also sat down.

After sitting down, Ye Ziqi said: "Before I talk to Uncle Li and Uncle Zhou, I would like to thank the two uncles for taking care of me, Brother Hei, and Sister Hei over the years. Otherwise, the three of us would have starved to death in the ruined temple. ”

"Why are you kid so polite today?" Zhou Dapeng felt that today's Sister Hei was very different from the Sister Hei he knew in the past, and he was a little uncomfortable for a while.

"Yes, I also think that today's Black Sister is very different from the past. Li Tiezhu naturally expressed the doubts in his heart.

Ye Ziqi smiled and said, "It may be that someone knocked on the brain a while ago and was knocked out." ”

Li Tiezhu and Zhou Dapeng knew about Ye Ziqi's injury, and when they heard Ye Ziqi talk about it so indifferently, the two of them showed distressed looks.

Ye Ziqi didn't fail to see the expressions of the two, but pretended to ignore them: "But I'm also a blessing in disguise!"

Zhou Dapeng snorted coldly: "What kind of blessing? Being injured like that, like a different person, is this called a blessing?"

Ye Ziqi shook his head and said, "Uncle Zhou misunderstood! What I said was that the uncle of the Zhao family came to us with Zhao Dongli and Zhao Xiaodong last night, saying that they were going to go elsewhere." But we can't take Zhao Xiaodong with us, let's help him in the future. ”

"You can't even take care of yourself, how can you help others?" Li Tiezhu was a little annoyed by the Zhao family's approach, but when he saw Ye Zixu's sad appearance, he looked at him with pity: "It's also a pitiful one, let's come here often with the three of them in the future!"

Seeing that the two of them did not doubt the words they discussed last night, Ye Ziqi said: "Uncle Li will listen to me first. Although the Zhao family left Zhao Dongli here, they also left the Zhao family's house and food to us. ”

Zhou Peng said with a look of disbelief: "As for the stingy wife of the Zhao family, would she be willing to leave so many things for you?"
