Chapter Twenty-Seven: Tanning
87_87438Speaking of which, Shouxin is also an extremely satisfying girl.
She also knows how to be grateful, although sometimes she feels that fate is unfair to her, but soon she will adjust herself and face her unsatisfactory life with an optimistic attitude. And she believes that as long as she works hard, she can one day change those unsatisfactory.
Especially when she saw these poor farmers, she felt even more satisfied.
And the daughter-in-law who picked the fruit yesterday, if she is rich, how can she be greedy for the wages of those copper plates? Fortunately, she is a kind person, not insatiable, and knows how to be grateful. Shouxin believes that God will never treat such a person badly.
After thinking about this, I smiled and ate a dry cake, and I could still have these feelings.
After a short break, the group continued on their way. At this time, the sun is poisonous, hanging above the head to exert its power, making people's skin burn.
When the defender passed by a forest, he broke a branch, braided a straw hat and handed it to Shouxin.
Shouxin took it and put it on, it was really cooler: "Thank you, why don't you make one up and put it on, the sun is poisoning at this hour!" ”
"What am I afraid of as a big man?"
It's not just the idea of being on the defensive, it's everyone else. Shouxin didn't say much, thinking that they were all strong, but they wouldn't suffer from heat stroke.
The defender said, "Buy a hat when you pass through the town, you can't be a girl like this." ”
"It's okay, wasn't it the same before?" Shouxin disagreed.
"That's the same, I didn't always bask in the sun before, you went to pick fruit yesterday, and your skin was a little tanned." The guard glanced at Shouxin and said seriously.
"Dark? So fast? "Shouxin was busy touching his face, he slept when he went back yesterday, and he didn't have time to look in the mirror this morning, in fact, even if he did, the bronze mirror couldn't see clearly.
"Well, so let's buy a hat!"
"Well, that's fine!" Shouxin is also a girl, and if it doesn't affect her skin, she won't care. But I don't want to be sunburned like a briquette, and my skin will be rough after a long time.
After walking for another hour, they entered a small town, which was not large, but from a distance, there were several large mansions. Xiao Chengzi also went straight to the big mansion with the team. Come to think of it, this is the first place they sent something.
The convoy stopped at the side gate of the house, and Xiao Chengzi went to call the door, and after opening the door, he said a few words to the little guy in the door, and the little guy quickly went in to report, and Xiao Chengzi ordered a few people who followed the car to start unloading things. Soon, a person who looked like a steward went out with a smile, welcomed everything in, and thanked Xiaochengzi: "Thank you Mu Yuanwai for thinking so much about my master, please come in and sit down." ”
"No, we have to rush to Xiaoli Town before dark and take our master to say hello to your master Zhang." Xiao Chengzi arched his hand, and seemed to be familiar with the steward of this house.
The steward didn't stay long: "In that case, you can go and get busy, and let's have a drink when you have time." ”
"You're welcome!" Seeing that everything was almost moved, Xiao Chengzi said goodbye and left with everyone.
There are not many things to stop at Mr. Zhang's house, about a car. Shouxin secretly paid attention to it, who knows if there will be a mission here in the future? She was not a careful person in her previous life, but she was attentive to everything in this life, and thanks to her martial arts practice, she became deaf and clear-sighted, and her memory was much better, which can be called unforgettable.
However, she found that not all people who practice martial arts have their own such skills, and she couldn't figure out what was going on. Could it really be that he gave birth to a smart head in this life? She vaguely remembered that she was a big family when she was just born in this life, and she thought it was the genes of her father and mother! It's just a pity that my parents don't know if they are still alive in this world.
She also wanted to go over and ask the master what was going on, but she didn't dare to ask, for fear that the master would think too much. After all, I don't know how the master brought him back then, if she killed her father and kidnapped herself, wouldn't it be dangerous to ask herself?
But even if she thought about it, she never had the slightest resentment towards her master. The master treats her better than other disciples, she can't have no conscience, what's more, raising grace is greater than giving birth, she is not a piece of wood, she knows how to distinguish between right and wrong.
The mule cart 'squeaked', and there was a small market when it turned out of the alley of Mr. Zhang's house, but they did not take the market, but turned a corner from the market entrance to another road.
At this time, the defender rode his horse and walked a few steps quickly, and said a few words to Xiao Chengzi's side, Xiao Chengzi nodded and took out a piece of broken silver. The defender dismounted and led him to the market.
When I thought about it, I knew that he had bought a hat for himself, and his heart was warm, this senior brother was really good.
She was right, and the defensive quickly followed after buying something, and also took a straw hat in her hand. First, he sent the remaining broken silver to Xiaochengzi, and then came to Shouxin's side, and handed over the straw hat. "Put it on!" A straw hat is just a straw hat worn by an ordinary man, and it doesn't look good. Seeing Shouxin staring at the straw hat, the guard said, "This is a small market, that's all, you make do with it first." ”
"It's okay, I didn't say this straw hat is bad!" Shouxin put it on directly, she was very content, and everyone else didn't have anything, and it was already good for her to have a straw hat to wear. It's a pity that Yi Xun didn't give them silver when he left, and it was also a grace to think that he would send silver twice.
She had also heard that the dark guard would issue monthly silver every month, five taels of silver per month, and there would be rewards according to the table when the task was issued.
Five taels of silver here is equivalent to the monthly silver of a large family, which is indeed a little less for the dark guard. However, the dark guard is licking blood on the tip of the knife, relying not on the so-called moon silver, but on the reward. And every time you go out, there will be a subsidy. For example, the money for eating and staying in the hotel. Yi Xun is the prince, and he will definitely not lose them.
It's just that this mission is not a task at all, and there is no need to send them money as a steward of Xiaochengzi!
Shouxin is still wearing men's clothes at this time, and wearing a men's straw hat is quite harmonious.
The sun was setting in the west, and it was not as hot as it was at noon, and the mule carts were moving a little faster than before. The water in the hydration bag has been drunk, but no one has said anything.
At this time, Shouxin felt that the pain of running outside could really be regarded as a blessing when he thought about his previous thirteen years! If she was in her previous life, she would not have been able to stand the pain of running around, but now that she knows martial arts, what is it to be strong and strong?
Before dark, they arrived at Xiaoli Town, which was much larger than the previous Zhangjia Town, with shops on both sides of the road open, and people were bustling and lively.
Xiaochengzi took the convoy directly to the Li family in the west of the city, the Li family is the big family in Xiaoli Town, and the Li family's house is also the largest house in Xiaoli Town, there are two stone lions at the door, although the size is not big, but it is also the most magnificent family in this Xiaoli Town.
still took the convoy to the side gate, and the small town went up to call the door, and then the small servant reported it, and the Li family steward came out to greet him. The things were carried in one after another, and the small city let the drivers and the croppers who escorted the cars be thick outside, and he took the four people who guarded the heart into Li's house to eat tea.
Because he was not the master, Xiaochengzi didn't plan to stay long, but just entered through the side door and sat down in a similar room. A maidservant served tea, and the little city talked to the steward.
The four of them didn't say much, but they brought tea to drink, they were so thirsty that after a cup of tea, the housekeeper personally came to fill the tea. But it was because Xiaochengzi said that the four of them usually followed the master, so they had such treatment.
The four of them sat there neither humble nor arrogant, calm and relaxed, and did not have the slightest fluctuation because the steward came to fill the tea, and even let the steward look at it, and even spoke a little respectfully.
Shouxin smiled secretly when he saw this, and the warmth and coldness of people are like this. If they knew the true identity of their master, they would be terrified.
Shouxin walked around the Zhuangzi in the past few days, knowing that this Zhuangzi is Yi Xun's private property, it is not surprising to think about it, since ancient times, the emperor's family is ruthless, and it is even more common for the prince to compete for the throne or something, Yi Xun has his own plans, and it is normal for him to have a way back, if not, they follow this master is the least worthwhile.
After eating two teas, Xiao Chengzi said goodbye to the steward. The steward left a little and gave up. Know that they are not idlers, and they need to rest after a busy day.
Out of Li's house, it was getting late, and only fourteen of the eighteen cars were left, and the rest were empty. It seems that the Li family sent three carts of things, which is more important than the previous Zhang family.
Led by Xiao Chengzi, the convoy slowly drove to the south of the city and stopped at the gate of a low-key courtyard.
Xiaochengzi went to call the door again, this time at the main gate. The person who came respectfully shouted: "Chengguan! ”
"Well, take them to the West Gate and drive the car into the yard!" Xiaochengzi has a high stand in front of these people, but he treats a few guards with great respect.
"Yes!" The man went, and the little city turned around and beckoned the four of them to enter through the main gate. "Come with me, a few of you."
This is a three-entry courtyard, and although the gate is low-key, the inside is also in the human eye. Xiao Chengzi arranged rooms for each of the four of them, and ordered the maid to fetch water to wash, and told the others to invite them to eat after half an hour.
Shouxin was very tired, so he washed his face three or two times and fell on the bed.
But when I washed my face just now, I took a picture in the water, and although I didn't look carefully, I thought it was really a little dark. It seems that I have to find a way to remedy it, but I can't be a black girl. I wear men's clothes every day, so I can't spoil my skin.
She was only thirteen years old, and her eyebrows were clear, and although she didn't open them, she couldn't see that she was ugly. And she also knows a sentence, there are no ugly women in the world, only lazy women.
So she decided to take good care of her skin.
Dinner was prepared very richly, and Xiao Chengzi ate with the four of them, and served wine, but he did not drink it when he was on guard and on the defensive.
After Shouxin had eaten, he asked Xiao Chengzi, "Where is the kitchen, I want to find a few things!" ”
"Huh? Tell me what the girl is looking for, and I'll find it myself! Xiao Chengzi knew that Shouxin was a woman, so he called him a girl.
Shouxin thought about it for a while, and then said, "An egg, a cucumber, if there is honey, it would be better!" ”。
