Chapter 3 The Food-Deliverer
After a long time, Lao Hao was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, turning back and forth. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The sky was starting to get dark, and the wind and snow were not big enough to bear. Lao Hao also returned to his side room, the old man was afraid that he would be cold, so he built a stove for him in the side room, and he put on some firewood on weekdays, and he could also burn warmly.
Relying on the stove, Lao Hao's heart has not been able to let go. Lao Hao was worried not only about the cart of vegetables, but also about Qingshi. That's an authentic man, honest, and he has to support a family, and Lao Hao doesn't want anything to happen to him.
"Uncle Hao, a car is coming! There's a car coming! ”
A few words suddenly came from outside the house, and Lao Hao could hear that it was a long-term worker in the house who fetched water. He hurriedly stood up, rubbed his hands and put on his warm things, and walked out of the door.
"It's coming, it's coming."
Lao Hao stepped forward while answering correctly, and the long-term worker consciously went to the back to call someone, and everyone helped unload the vegetables together for a while.
Walking forward, Lao Hao realized that something was wrong with the carriage. The bluestone carriage is clean and translucent, even if it comes against the wind and snow, it has a clean energy. The carriage looked like a carriage that had not been repaired for a long time, tattered, and a strange smell could be smelled from the wind and snow.
A person got out of the car, dressed in shabby cotton clothes, and only two eyes were left on his face, so he couldn't see his face clearly.
"You are?"
Although he couldn't see his appearance clearly, Lao Hao also felt that this was not a bluestone, so he said.
"Something to catch a car today, let me help him." The man replied.
Lao Hao was puzzled and wanted to ask something. The people who helped behind had already come over, and it was freezing cold, and Lao Hao was embarrassed to let everyone wait for him to ask questions again. Just don't ask, unload with everyone.
Opening the quilt on the car, Lao Hao felt a lot more relieved. Although the car came late, the food inside did not look dry or dry, and it was not frozen into anything. After a while, it will definitely be fresh when you take it out and put it in the back kitchen. At the moment, he no longer doubted, and commanded everyone to unload the car.
The dishes on the car are nothing more than winter dishes, cabbage, celery, and several dishes are full of cars.
After unloading for a while, the food on the car was gone. Someone went to the back to count, and Lao Hao was finally able to be idle to deal with the visitors.
"Man, it's not easy to catch a car, come, let's go to the house and sit down for a while." Lao Hao said.
The man nodded, and followed his men to drive the carriage to the stables. This is the rule of large households, if the car delivery comes late, of course, you have to stay on this day before leaving. There was a special place in this house for storing the carriage for the chariot, and the man followed the subordinate to drive the cart over, which was quite neat.
After making the carriage, Lao Hao instructed the kitchen to get vegetables and invited him to his house.
"You're staying here with me tonight, it's small, but it can be covered with a few boards. I'll put up a plank here in a moment, make up a night tonight, and be on my way tomorrow. Lao Hao said.
The man nodded, he was not as good as Qingshi could talk and laugh with Lao Hao, and he sat there sullenly, not even taking off his hat that covered most of his face.
"Well, you take off your clothes, this room isn't that cold." Lao Hao said.
The man was stunned, nodded, and took off his coat. The hat was still on his head, and he hadn't taken it off.
"I didn't say it, brother, don't be so restrained. I'm not that master, we're all subordinates, you take off your hat. After a while, the food comes up and eats casually, how good it is to be warm and lively. Lao Hao replied again.
The man didn't move, and suddenly said, "Brother, I didn't expect you to be so good." ”
Lao Hao was also stunned at this time, and he didn't hear this person's voice clearly outside just now. His voice sounded so clean and pure in this room. The old carriage was dressed in tatters, but the voice was very similar to the young master who came out of everyone.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's not my person, it's not easy for everyone to be outside, why complain about each other?" Lao Hao smiled.
The door to the room was pushed open, and a man brought in a dozen trays. There are four dishes in it, all of which are lightly stir-fried.
"Alright, let's eat, let's eat. Although there is nothing to eat, the craftsmanship of this back kitchen is not bad. Try this spicy stir-fried cabbage, it is definitely a must. Lao Hao said.
The man nodded, and took off his hat. Lao Hao realized that even if this person took off his hat, his face was covered with a cloth, and only his mouth was exposed.
"Thank you for your hospitality." The man replied.
Lao Hao nodded, stunned and speechless.
The two of them hardly talked to each other, Lao Hao waited for the car driver for a day without eating, and he was so hungry that he ate with the car driver. There weren't many dishes, and there were two big men eating them, and after a while, they ate the dishes.
"Are you full? If you're still hungry, there's still a kitchen. Lao Hao said.
The man nodded and replied, "It's full, thank you brother for your hospitality." ”
Lao Hao was a little embarrassed, this person said all the words of everyone, and he seemed a little vulgar. can only respond: "You don't have to be so polite, I'm embarrassed to be polite." Now that you have eaten enough, you will lie down and rest for a while. Catch the car early tomorrow morning. Although our lord is kind-hearted, he can't see outsiders spending the night, and always has to leave early in the morning. ”
"Oh?" The man was stunned for a moment and said, "That old man, do you know why that old man is like this?" ”
Lao Hao thought for a while and said, "I don't know, but this big family always has the rules of a big family, just keep it." Although our old man has these strange tempers, as long as you don't leave too late, he won't pay attention. ”
The man nodded, helped Lao Hao to send the things to the back kitchen to clean up, and came back to clean up his bed and get ready for bed.
It's cold, and there's not much entertainment for the people. Late at night, sleeping is the only option. Looking at the dark sky outside, Lao Hao estimated the time in his heart. I'm afraid it's still early, but it's getting dark a little early. The man was asleep, and he lay down, but he could not close his eyes.
Lao Hao didn't ask about Qingshi's whereabouts, but the person who was driving the car suddenly changed, naturally there was a reason, and he was still a little worried about his old friend.
Somehow, thinking about things, Lao Hao only felt that his head was getting more and more messy. Slowly fell asleep - or fainted.
The man got up from the bed.
He looked at Lao Hao in the room, who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, as if he was not sleeping. Don't worry too much, tidy up your own things.
The wind and snow outside gradually became heavier, and the wind drowned out many sounds, making it difficult for people to improve their already insensitive feeling in such weather.
He walked out the door.
