On the day before the start of the draft, Mu Qing returned to Zhuangwangfu from Guozijian as usual, and had to stop when passing through Yue'an Street, the main street in the capital.

Because there are many sedan chairs passing by the road, those sedan chairs are not fast, but they are of different colors, most of them are pink or red sedan chairs, smooth and fast.

Mu Qing stood behind the crowd and didn't look at it, he could probably know who it was.

The draft is imminent, and the show girls in each mansion must enter the Chuxiu Palace built for the show girls in the palace in advance, and the older palace ladies in the palace will teach etiquette, and the general election will start when the show girls have complete etiquette.

Although these palanquins are different in color, they look much the same. Mu Qing raised his eyes and looked at it, but he couldn't see who was pretending to be here.

Which top is the quiet young lady Liu Mengru who has a relationship, and which top is Wei Linlin, who was thought of by his father and brother to himself. Mu Qing couldn't tell the difference, so he didn't think about it anymore, so he just poured a bowl of tea in the tea house and drank it by himself.

The boss of the tea house was the shopkeeper who had talked a lot to him when Mu Qing first came to Guozijian, and when he saw Mu Qing, he put down the work in his hand, walked over with a pot of tea, and poured a bowl for Mu Qing with a smile: "Lord Mu, how are you doing lately?" ”

Mu Qing took the tea bowl with a smile, and his expression was very gentle: "I'm doing well," he said, looking left and right, "It seems that the shopkeeper's recent business is also very good." Then he raised his hand and asked the shopkeeper to sit down opposite him.

The shopkeeper put aside the towel on his shoulder, and he was not pretentious, flicked his cuffs and sat down, his face was still shrewd but easy-going of a businessman: "I have a small business, if it weren't for the adults to take care of the business when they were fine, I was afraid that I would have a hard time every day." ”

Mu Qing only treated him politely, waved his hand, and took a sip of tea.

This tea is not the slightly colored feeling last time, but it is very mellow and fragrant, and the taste is very crisp. Mu Qing raised his eyebrows, his eyes looked at the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper just smiled and didn't speak. Mu Qing didn't move, just drank the tea, and knew that the bowl of tea that the shopkeeper proposed to him was probably very good, and the so-called was just a human relationship.

This is someone else's intention, it's not good to refuse by yourself, Mu Qing just wants to put more money later.

At this time, I heard the shopkeeper say: "Adults don't blame the little talkers, this news has spread, saying that someone has taken a fancy to you and wants to find you as a son-in-law, but it happened to be a draft, and the daughter is going to be sent in, and many people say that you are afraid that you are very sad recently." ”

Mu Qing was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't laugh or cry.

He didn't know where the news came from, if someone knew that Wei Jing had taken a fancy to him and wanted Wei Linlin to give it to him, Mu Qing didn't believe it, don't say that there was no leakage on his side, just for Wei Linlin's reputation, Wei Jing would also keep everyone tight-lipped, otherwise he wouldn't let Wei Jun come to the door in person.

I'm afraid that these gossips have been made up, but if you think about it, you can think that this year's election and draft have come together, and talents and beauties are together, which inevitably makes people have some charming thoughts. In addition, Mu Qing is a young man, and some rumors are inevitable.

Mu Qing's expression did not move, and he only didn't know that there was helplessness on his face: "This is a strange thing, I have a relationship with someone?" I didn't know about it myself, but I let others know about it, which is really strange. ”

The shopkeeper also knew that this matter was unreliable, and he was not embarrassed, but said with a smile: "I'm afraid that those women who admire adults make up words, adults don't have to mind." ”

Mu Qing nodded and took another sip of tea.

"Speaking of which, Master Mu, there is a daughter in the small family, although she is not as beautiful as those official ladies, but she is also a small family, and she has read a lot of poetry and books since she was a child."

The shopkeeper's words made Mu Qing's eyelids jump, and this routine was a little familiar.

Sure enough, the shopkeeper continued: "If the adults don't dislike it, can you let the little girl bring tea and water next to the adults?" She naturally understands the rules, and if the adults are not satisfied, I will personally come to the door to apologize and take her away. ”

This time it's not about kissing, but about stuffing a girl next to him.

This is not surprising, at this time, because of the strict concept of the family, those ordinary people who have no official body and no wealth and no power may live well, but they often do not take advantage of marriage. Among those people, many families urged their sons to study and take scientific examinations, while their daughters tried their best to send them to the big families.

If you marry well, many of them go to a big family to be a concubine, and when they leave the courtyard of the deep house and return home, they can often marry much better than others, and because they have experienced the experience of a big family, they are much better than the girls next to them in terms of etiquette and style, and they can be the housewife and take charge of a family when they get married, which makes Mu Qing also a little surprised.

The shopkeeper of the tea shop is afraid that he also has this thought, he treats his girl well, and is not happy to let her give Mu Qing as a concubine, but just a maid, and after a few years, she has reached the age of marriage, and the experience of staying by the side of the champion can naturally raise her value to a good family.

However, Mu Qing is afraid that he will not be able to follow his wishes, not to mention that Zhuangwangfu does not want outsiders, just himself, he usually has to carry people behind his back for many things, and it is only a relative-like person like An Nu who can keep it, and outsiders really can't do it. Therefore, Mu Qing did not hesitate, and there was some apology on his face: "Shopkeeper, I don't have my own mansion now, but I live in King Zhuang's mansion, I'm afraid that I can't accept anyone, I can't do anything about this busy." ”

The shopkeeper didn't say much when he saw that he was embarrassed, but opened the topic with a smile, Mu Qing knew that this page had been revealed, so he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and just smiled and talked to the shopkeeper.

==================================================================================

The sedan chair was almost gone, and the crowd dispersed, so Mu Qing left a small piece of silver horn on the table and said goodbye. It stands to reason that this night's tea is only one or two copper plates, but Mu Qing drank good tea, and he didn't do anything for others, so he naturally had to give more money. When Mu Qing put down the silver horn, his heart was dripping blood, and he could only smile on his face.

The shopkeeper sent him away with a smile, picked up a towel and put it on his shoulder, pinched the silver horn in his hand and looked at it, sighed, put it into his arms, greeted a few other guests who were drinking tea in the tea shop, and let Xiao Er take care of it, and he lifted the curtain and went into the back.

After entering, the shopkeeper who was originally mild-faced stood up, knelt down, and said in a low voice: "The subordinates are incompetent, please punish the master." ”

The man in Tsing Yi sitting on the chair did not look at him, but stared at a jade plaque in his hand. After a while, when the shopkeeper's forehead was already sweating, the man stood up, took a few steps forward, raised his foot, and stepped heavily on the shopkeeper's body.

The shopkeeper was in pain, but he didn't dare to make a sound, so he just gritted his teeth and endured it.

The man in Tsing Yi narrowed his eyes, his narrow eyes looked clear and indifferent, and when he spoke, his voice was a little neutral and soft, low and pleasant: "Do you know, if you get nothing, what should you do?" Then he stood up, let go of the shopkeeper, and took the handkerchief and dusted the corners of his robe.

The shopkeeper was shocked, and Nono was speechless.

The man in Tsing Yi knew that he was frightened when he looked at him, so he didn't say anything more, but waved his hand to the side. A man in black standing in the back took a few steps forward and put the bag in his hand in front of the shopkeeper, who has been dealing with tea all his life, and when he listened to the movement, he knew that there were scattered tea leaves.

Although there is a bag to block it, there is still a faint aroma of tea, which is obviously an excellent tea.

"It's okay if you can't put someone in it, and you can't be blamed for not being able to do it, so let's get up."

The man's voice suddenly calmed down a lot, and the shopkeeper confessed his guilt again, and then got up, holding the brocade bag that the man had placed in front of him.

The man in Tsing Yi glanced at him and took a few steps forward, his face exposed to the sun.

Sword eyebrows and starry eyes, thin lips like fat, and a face that is amazingly handsome, isn't it the manager of Huang Huihuang, who is always by Li Muyan's side. I saw the corners of his mouth raised, and his voice seemed to come from the valley: "This bag of tea, feed him next time he comes to your tea shop." Seeing the shopkeeper's eyes widen, Huang Hui said slowly, "Don't worry, this is not poison, it's just putting people to sleep." ”

When the shopkeeper heard that he was not asked to kill, he breathed a sigh of relief and said repeatedly: "Please rest assured, the little one must be done properly." ”

"In addition to letting him drink it, you have to do one more thing," as he spoke, Huang Hui took out two porcelain bottles, one blue and one red, and handed them to his subordinates behind him, and asked him to hand them to the shopkeeper, and only after seeing the shopkeeper accept it, he said, "I want you to take some blood from Mu Qing's fingertips after he falls asleep, put it in a red bottle, and then apply the wound medicine from the blue bottle on his hands, this is the best medicine, it is difficult to find in the world, just a cup of tea The wound can be healed." ”

This is an absolute need for fine medicine, the shopkeeper nodded, and carefully put it in his arms.

He didn't ask Huang Hui what he wanted Mu Qing's blood to do, he was just a pawn, and the shopkeeper himself knew that he was not in Huang Hui's eyes. Although the person in front of him is rootless, such a person must not be offended, because they have no concern, so they are often more rational and cruel.

There is also a family of wives and children in charge, so I can only say sorry to Mu Qing.

Huang saw that he was obedient, so he nodded, with a hint of a smile on his face: "If it is successful, it will naturally not treat you badly, and it will be successful to the shopkeeper." After speaking, without waiting for the shopkeeper's reply, he turned his head and left directly, and the man in black who followed him also left quickly, and in a few breaths, it was empty.

The shopkeeper touched the bulging bag in his arms, stood for a while, and then sighed secretly, patted his face, and changed his smile before going out.

As a bird, I just want to live.

The author has something to say: everyone has their own difficulties, but they are just trying to live

Huang Hui's father-in-law's appearance is definitely my favorite, how can I compare it...... Kindness...... It's very bleached and domineering = w=
