44. Chapter 44
There was no time to be afraid, Xia Bilei's first thought was excitement, she had finally seen the real bandit after coming to ancient times for so long, but this thief was too unpursued, and he actually wanted cured meat to buy road wealth.
The little fat man couldn't be afraid, he felt very proud, was the cured meat he made so delicious, the thieves couldn't help but rob it.
"I said you're no more than twenty years old this year, this tree is at least a hundred years old, do you plant a tree or a tree plant you? There is also this road, there was a previous dynasty, do you want to tell me that you only look seventeen or eighteen, but in fact you are hundreds of years old? Qin Mao's calm voice sounded, still poisonous.
The little fat man and Xia Bilei couldn't help but want to go out to see what this thief looked like, before going out, the little fat man put the knife under his clothes, Xia Bilei picked up the wooden bow and arrow that Qin Mao gave him to practice, of course, the situation was very urgent, she could electrocute this thief half to death, but she was also electrocuted and couldn't move, well, anyway, her golden finger is to roast the enemy to seven minutes, and she has to be five percent cooked, she has long been used to it.
The thief's voice sounded, and the clear voice sounded very pleasant, but everyone could hear the weakness in his words, "This...... There are a lot of big rocks on the road, Xiaosheng, no, no, Lao Tzu...... There are those who move them aside, so ...... You can only go in a carriage. โ
Niche? Still a scholar? Xia Bilei thought about it, threw down the bow and arrow in her hand, and jumped out of the carriage.
The first thing she saw was a black and bright hair, black hair that was not tied up but scattered around her waist at random, and then looked at the scholar's tattered clothes that could only cover her body, Xia Bilei suddenly realized that he couldn't even afford a hairpin to fix his hair. As for why you don't use a headband to stick your hair up, look at the appearance of this fine skin and tender meat, eighty percent of them are handicapped people. Xia Bilei looked at his face for the last time, well, Xiao Shou! Or the soft temptation of fine skin and tender meat, a living male white lotus!
The little fat man is quite speechless, he should learn from Bi Lei's sister to drop the knife, just such a delicate and soft body, he can crush him with a big butt piercing.
The scholar's face turned red, as if he was ashamed of his behavior, but his eyes were still longing to look at the cured meat hanging around the carriage, and he reflexively swallowed his saliva, "Anyway...... Lao Tzu is a robber, and he will hand over your cured meat...... Hand it over! โ
Qin Mao just wants to be quiet, there is a saying that it is better to read thousands of books than to walk thousands of miles, there are really no surprises in this world, he has never seen such a thief who has not pursued, and he is satisfied with cured meat! I have no future, I'm too unambitious!
Qin Mao looked at this useless scholar thief with a sad heart, and threw a bunch of salted fish and cured meat over, and the delicate and gentle scholar was almost overwhelmed by the salted fish and cured meat in his hand.
It's really useless, the little fat man is disdainful, just a dozen pheasants, hares and salted fish can't be moved, and they are robbed.
The scholar held the harvest in his hand as if in a dream, and he succeeded in the first robbery?
"Not enough?" Qin Mao's brows furrowed, a little unhappy, he couldn't take this thing anymore, could it be that he was greedy and wanted more?
"No, no, no...... That's enough. The scholar hurriedly waved his hand, looking very happy, "It's enough for me and my mother to eat for three or four months, and this salted fish is salted, so my family doesn't need to buy salt." โ
Xia Bilei and the little fat man went back to the carriage and sat down with a bored face, Qin Mao was about to throw the whip and set off, the scholar hurriedly stopped in front of the carriage, "This little brother, I know that no matter how difficult it is, I shouldn't rob it, but the game you gave me is enough to feed my mother, I don't know how to thank you, so let's do it, if you have any difficulties now, I will definitely help if I can!" In order to show his sincerity, the scholar also specially told his own situation.
He was originally a nearby villager, and his reading was good, but unfortunately his father died and his mother was sick, so he sold out the family's land and buried his father and then gave his mother a disease, and in the end he couldn't even afford to eat, so he had to come out to dig wild vegetables and hunt, useless is a scholar is the truth! With nothing to gain, his stomach grumbled with hunger, and as soon as he saw Qin Mao's strange-shaped carriage, his brain twitched and robbed.
The little fat man glanced at the skinny scholar sympathetically, and touched the fat on his waist lovingly, it was so pitiful that he couldn't eat enough, thinking that he was almost skinny at the beginning!
"I'm sympathetic to you, but we don't need help." Qin Mao looked disgusted, even if this body didn't help, it was really useless, the person who was about to be crowned couldn't support himself, and he almost starved to death for his mother!
The scholar made up his mind, "If you don't say this, how do you know that I can't help, I have studied hard for ten years, I am literate, and I can settle accounts......"
The little fat man couldn't listen anymore, "Who in our carriage can't read and settle accounts." โ
The scholar smiled slightly, his smile was a little meaningful, "But it's a trouble for you to follow the adults." โ
Xia Bilei found that the scholar's appearance disappeared at this moment, and she actually had a bit of a black temperament, she rubbed her eyes, only to find that the scholar was actually quite tall, but he was too thin and looked weak.
Qin Mao's hand holding the reins tightened, he was also most afraid of this, it was too strange that the person driving the carriage was a child, and he was worried that sooner or later someone would find him through this.
However, Qin Mao lowered his eyelids, it took him a long time to trust Xia Bilei and the little fat man, this scholar, who can guarantee that he has no malicious intent. The most terrifying thing was that since he had seen through the fact that there were only three children in the carriage, would he have publicized it......
"I said scholar, thank you without thanks." Xia Bilei walked over and secretly shook Qin Mao's cold hand, "You see that I have no hair on my head, your head โกโก is so bright, if you really want to thank me for giving me your hair, I just want to buy a wig to wear." โ
The scholar was stunned, and couldn't help but smile bitterly after a hundred turns and knots, why are there so many people now, this young man with a sallow face and extremely delicate facial features is just that, this girl who seems to have been roasted by the fire and has just recovered is so shrewd, it is clear that she is testing and rejecting him. Although the body is skinned, and the parents dare not destroy it, there is no absolute, for example, the habit of men not growing beards in the past has been passed down to the present, but everyone still cherishes the hair. It could be seen that this delicately born young man was in fact extremely reluctant for him to go with them, and if he was unwilling to give the little girl his hair and insist on repaying the favor in other ways, the young man who drove the horse was suspicious that he was hiding a treachery in his heart...... The scholar sighed, took out the blunt knife in his hand and cut his hair, half loud, so painful that his mouth inhaled cold air and didn't cut a few pieces.
"Forget it, you better help us drive the horses as a thank you." Confirming that scholars are not like ungrateful, Qin Mao spoke.
"I said you just hunted with this knife that couldn't cut through the tofu, and it was lucky that you didn't get eaten by the prey." The little fat man looked at the scholar with admiration, "Just now you want to rob us, this is the knife you used." โ
"Fatty, you're really, maybe he's just using this knife to strengthen his guts." Xia Bilei's seemingly comforting words made the scholar shoot through his heart, "Although the possibility of waiting for the rabbit is low, it can't be said that there is none, maybe one day a wild boar will crash into a tree and faint it......"
The scholar is sad, is it too late for him to regret it now, no, if he regrets it, he will have to cut off his head and send the little girl, but this is too painful!
"Let's go to Guyun County to sell cured meat and salted fish, we still want to sell more game for silver, at least six or seven days, you can find us after you finish your business." Qin Mao took out a tael of silver and threw it to the scholar, he was a little proud that no one had found his traces yet, who would have thought that King Kang was not in a hurry to return to Beijing, but traveled all the way to the mountains and rivers and became a businessman.
The scholar's face was straight, and one tael of silver was enough for his mother, who had just recovered from a serious illness, for a year and a half. He glanced at Qin Mao deeply, bowed his head and didn't go back. He believed in his gaze, a young man from an extraordinary background, and the friendship he made in times of trouble would one day reward more than he could have imagined......
"Wait, scholar, you haven't told us what your name is?" Xia Bilei hurriedly asked.
"The sound of the book, my surname is the book, the fame, the sound of the voice." The scholar strode along, leaving them with a ...... The figure of the wolf bรจi who dragged and pulled the game on his back.
"This name is really convenient, could it be that when his father gave birth to him, he knew that his son would become a scholar one day sooner or later?" The little fat man said suspiciously.
"Didn't you hear the sound of a voice?" Xia Bilei said angrily, looking at the back of the scholar with great distress, ah, that beautiful hair was completely ruined by the wax-flavored oil, and she would soon have a wig......
"Sister Bilei doesn't hate this scholar?" Qin Mao asked.
"Well, he was a little surprised and sympathetic when he saw me, but he didn't have a nasty feeling." Xia Bilei touched her big bald head, "I look like this, most people will be startled and feel disgusted or something, the sound of the book is different." "Actually robbed with a deadly blunt knife, and the scholar was probably desperate......
"No......" Qin Mao lightly interrupted Xia Bilei's words, "He should have observed that there were no adults in our carriage early on, so he thought about whether he could take some benefits from us by trying his luck." This is also the reason why he decided to make the book sound, and people with a keen and bottom-line line are worth befriending.
"How so?" Xia Bilei was taken aback, "When did it happen?" โ
"When you are fat and selling lap-mei, no matter how good your ventriloquist is, no matter how good you are at talking like a big man, after all, no adult shows up when you sell things......"
"I won't sell game along the road anymore." The little fat man reflected with a bitter face, "It's better to wait until Guyun County sells out at one time." โ
"It's okay, no one will doubt it if there is a book in the future." Qin Mao unceremoniously squeezed the future employees, "In the future, when others ask, they will say that he hunted the game!" โ
"The problem is that Shusheng's shoulders are not wide enough, and he probably can't carry the pot." Xia Bilei pouted, "It's better to let him send that head to me." "What beautiful hair, her beauty must have risen countless levels!
"Good." Qin Mao patted her on the head, "I sold the game to buy you a wig." โ
