Chapter 58 Visiting on a Rainy Day
After eating the flatbread, the little princess of Thousand Illusions was obviously much better, and her eyes were full of light. A pair of eyes www.biquge.info gurgling, and there were still crumbs of bread at the corners of his mouth, so he couldn't wait to say to the thin man: "It's delicious, do you still have it?" Bring me another flatbread. ”
Xiao Xiaoyao looked at the foodie Qianhuan little princess, as if embarrassed, turned her face to the side, and pretended not to see this scene. The thin man was also taken aback by the little girl's appearance, although he was surprised, but the man still took out the last piece of cake and handed it to the little princess of a thousand illusions.
Seeing that the thin man had nothing to do with him, he didn't hit the prey, and now the dry food was eaten by the little princess of Thousand Illusions. Xiao Xiaoyao took out a gold coin, handed it to the thin man, and said, "This is the money for my sister to eat your big cake, take it!" We haven't eaten in a long time, so I wonder if you can take us to your house and cook us something to eat, and take shelter from the rain by the way. It's raining, and it's really a little cold. ”
The thin man looked at the shiny gold coins handed by Xiao Xiaoyao, and didn't know what to do for a while, such a large amount of money had not been seen in their small village. After hesitating for a while, the thin man said with a flushed face: "The coins are not needed, and the two cakes are not worth much." Come with me, my house is still a little far from here. This rain is a bit annoying, let's go quickly! ”
After the thin man finished speaking, after glancing at the gold coin in Xiao Xiaoyao's hand, he turned around with difficulty and walked in the direction of home. Xiao Xiaoyao looked at the thin man's expression with a smile, and did not insist, after putting away the gold coins, he followed the man who turned around and led the way, and walked forward.
The rain was still falling, and the rooftops of several houses at the foot of the mountain were curling with green smoke. The thin man carried a bow and arrow, walked briskly in front, watching him get closer and closer to home, and the pace under his feet also accelerated a little, and he also gently urged them to the little Xiaoyao behind him: "Let's hurry up, the second house in front is my house, and there will be hot water and hot meals when I get home."
Hearing that there was a hot meal, the little princess of Thousand Illusions immediately wanted to speed up and run forward, Xiao Xiaoyao grabbed her back collar and said viciously: "If you run indiscriminately, I won't let you eat." You are not allowed to run ahead of me in the future, do you hear? ”
After Xiao Xiaoyao finished speaking, he also raised his fist demonstratively. The little princess of Thousand Illusions, who was grabbed by the collar of her back coat and almost lifted by Xiao Xiaoyao, had to nod helplessly, indicating that she must be obedient. Xiao Xiaoyao let go of the little princess of Thousand Illusions and walked forward in the lead. Qianhuan thought about hot rice, hot rice, walking behind Xiao Xiaoyao and restless, but he didn't dare to go ahead, and finally had to compare his fist to Xiao Xiaoyao's back, and he had to bow his head under the eaves. The little princess of a thousand illusions thought so!
It is a house made of mud and stone, and the roof is covered with blue-black stone tiles. The rain trickled down the stone tiles and ticked in front of the house to form a curtain of water. The thin man scraped the dirt on the stone steps in front of the door, and shouted loudly into the house: "Daughter-in-law, I have a guest today." Make a few more dishes and a few more cakes. ”
Xiao Xiaoyao quietly shook off the dirt on the soles of his shoes and followed the thin man into the house. A middle-aged woman with a spatula in her hand walked out of the kitchen, glanced at Xiao Xiaoyao and them, and said to the thin man, "Okay, you go and get some hot water for them." Take off your clothes and dry them, but on a rainy day, you get wet and get caught in the cold. ”
After the woman finished speaking, she smiled innocently at Xiao Yao, and then turned back to the kitchen. The thin man was busy pouring hot water and making tea, and after a long period of time, he went into the back room and changed into a clean coarse cloth robe.
Looking at the neat and clean house, when the two of them entered the room, Xiao Xiaoyao and the three of them used their true qi and demonic qi, evaporated all the rainwater on their bodies, and dried their clothes and hair. The little princess of Qianhuan was not wet by the rain at all along the way, but the thin man didn't know it, and at this time, the little Qianhuan was already sitting at the table, and couldn't wait for the meal to start.
Not long after the man entered the house, he changed his clothes and came out, looked at the two people and one beast sitting at the table drinking tea, and went directly into the kitchen to help. From time to time, there were bursts of chatter and laughter in the kitchen, indicating that the two had a good relationship.
After a while, a thin man came out with a pot of soup made of beans and potatoes, and a middle-aged woman followed closely behind with a stack of flatbread. After the two put it away, the woman went in and took a stack of dishes and chopsticks, and after putting one in front of each person, the woman said with a smile: "It's been a long time since the family has been so lively, come, eat, eat." Those who have coarse tea and light rice will eat some of them. ”
As soon as Xiao Qianhuan finished speaking, she secretly glanced at Xiao Xiaoyao, and then smiled playfully at the woman. Immediately grabbed two flatbreads, one in each hand, and began to eat them. The appearance of the little princess of Qianhuan made the daughter-in-law of the thin man laugh, and while laughing, she served a bowl of beans and potato soup and rice for the little princess of Qianhuan, and said, "Eat slowly, don't choke." Drink some soup, it will be delicious! ”
The kindness of a middle-aged woman reminded Xiao Xiaoyao of her mother, Shangguan Ying'er, who was also so amiable. When I turned my head to look at the sweet little princess of Thousand Illusions, I found that the little girl was already bowing her head, bursting into tears, and she forced herself to smile and bite the big cake in her hand to prevent others from finding out. Xiao Xiaoyao's heart twitched, the little girl is not as heartless as she seems, and when the softness of her heart is touched, she will cry sadly.
Xiao Xiaoyao silently ate the big cake in her hand and drank the soup and rice in the bowl, this is the third time she has seen this little girl crying sadly, I hope that in the future, she will not be so sad.
After the meal, the thin man and his virtuous daughter-in-law went to the kitchen to clean up the dishes and chopsticks. I was still talking about the little girl who was eating hard just now, and the boy who was like an adult, and the big white dog who was very spiritual. The two talked and talked, looked at each other and smiled, and after putting the cleaned dishes and chopsticks in their hands, the thin man walked out of the kitchen first, looking at the empty living room and the neat three gold coins on the table, the thin man immediately shouted at the kitchen: "Daughter-in-law, come out quickly, a few little guys are gone, and there is still money on the table!"
The middle-aged woman walked out of the kitchen when she heard the sound, walked to the table with the thin man, and looked at the three gold coins on the table, and the two big words carved into the table, 'Thank you'.
The thin man immediately ran out of the house, looked at the muddy path that was empty and raining, and said softly: "With such a heavy rain, how can you say that you can just leave?"
The middle-aged woman walked up to the thin man, put her arm around the thin man's arm and said, "They are not ordinary children at first glance, especially the big white dog, whose eyes can speak." Eat a meal, and leave us three gold coins, what a sensible child, may they be safe and sound all their lives. ”
After a pause and looking at the increasingly heavy rain outside the house, the middle-aged woman continued: "The head of the house, go buy a cow and a donkey in a few days, and open up some more land in the back mountain." In the future, you don't have to go up to the mountains to hunt, let's save a little frugality, and then bring the child back from the city, and find a daughter-in-law for the child in a few years, and the life will be like this, which is good. ”
Speaking of the child, the thin man immediately came to his senses and said, "I have to thank you for meeting a nobleman." Early in the morning, I went to the city to pick up the children from Zhou Yuanwai's house, and then went to the market together to see if there were any stronger livestock. When I come back, I will bring you two more pieces of cloth so that you can make a good garment. ”
"What kind of cloth do you want, save some use. Leave the money to your son to marry a daughter-in-law, and when the time comes, you will take care of the house. The middle-aged woman said angrily.
The two stood in front of the door, looking at the heavy rain outside the house, chatting happily about the good days ahead, and the three gold coins on the table behind them seemed to be particularly shining at this time.
The autumn rain is continuous, indicating that the cold winter is coming. In the woods more than 100 miles away from Shangguan City, Xiao Xiaoyao and his party of three were about to change the route to the avenue. Since the little princess was frightened by the thin man, she has been obediently running behind Xiao Xiaoyao a little bit, and let me drag it a little bit behind the little princess of a thousand illusions, so that the little princess of a thousand illusions is well protected in the middle.
Due to the rain all day, there was no figure on the road, and the three of them looked at Shangguan Cheng in the distance, and their steps accelerated a lot. When they arrived at the city gate, the guards looked at the three of them who were drenched in soup and did not stop them.
Entering this familiar city, the three of them had a special thought in their hearts. But the drizzle still falling in the sky didn't give them time to sigh. The streets were deserted, and the three of them quickened their pace, found a comfortable inn in the center of the city, and took up their stay.
After a little washing, the little princess changed into a blue dress and knocked on the door of the room where Xiao Xiaoyao and I dragged it. Seeing that Xiao Xiaoyao was still wearing that set of clothes, and even the white talisman vest that I dragged it took, the little princess of Thousand Illusions said teasingly: "What's the matter, is there no money, so saving." Don't know how to change yourself into beautiful clothes? Look at my dress, how pretty. Look at the two of you, it's like my little henchman. ”
Xiao Xiaoyao's black boy's suit, when he was at the beach, was damaged by the elderly Taoist priest of Sanqingguan. Nowadays, this dress is still made by my mother at home, which is really not practical, for example, on this rainy day, it is easy to get wet. And the little princess of Thousand Illusions, because of her special abilities, has never been wet by the rain, but when she returned to the main road, Xiao Xiaoyao deliberately wet her clothes in order not to make her too special.
Now that the little princess of a thousand illusions said this, it seems that she really has to buy some clothes for herself and me. You know, when you are in a hurry or fighting with people, the easiest thing to destroy is your clothes and equipment. And the money owed to the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce should also be repaid, and the money of the captain and his gang who robbed last time was all collected in the storage ring by Xiao Xiaoyao. That's why Xiao Xiaoyao left all the 10,000 gold coins from Sanqingguan and the pit at home. Now, counting the 1,000 gold coins in the captain's silver ID card, Xiao Xiaoyao probably has more than 3,000 gold coins.
Thinking of this, Xiao Xiaoyao greeted me and let me drag it, and said to the little princess of Thousand Illusions: "The master will go buy clothes now, but the master won't buy them for you." What the master has is money, and he can't spend enough money. ”
After speaking, Xiao Xiaoyao took out a bag of gold coins from the storage ring, and walked towards the outside of the inn with a toss in his hand.
The sky was dark and it was late afternoon, but fortunately it didn't continue to rain. Xiao Xiaoyao and Ren I dragged into the hall of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, looking around, trying to find the big beauty who chose clothes and equipment for them last time. The little princess of Thousand Illusions followed behind them, her mood was not very beautiful, and she looked around as if they were looking for someone, so she said, "What are you two thieves looking at?" Be careful for a while, others will take you as thieves and take them away. ”
Xiao Xiaoyao ignored the nonsense of the little princess of a thousand illusions, and was still looking for the figure of the big beauty. Finally, seeing the familiar woman coming out of a house, Xiao Xiaoyao hurriedly ran forward and said to the big beauty who came over: "Sister beauty, I've been looking for you for a long time." Remember us? I owe you 700 gold coins last time? ”
Seeing Xiao Xiaoyao anxiously improving her impression, the beautiful sister said funny: "Of course I remember, the black gold identity card is not so easy to appear. My little brother is here to pay back the money today, right? Besides this, is there anything else you want my sister to help with? ”
Listening to the familiar and friendly voice, Xiao Xiaoyao said happily: "Today, my brother and I will each add two more sets of equipment, and the requirements are still the same as last time." I'm sorry sister, after taking it, let's pay the bill together! ”
After listening to what Xiao Xiaoyao said, the beautiful sister smiled at Xiao Xiaoyao, and when she turned around, she looked at the little princess who was standing behind Xiao Xiaoyao with a frosty face.
After the three of Xiao Xiaoyao came out of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, on the street in the evening, the little princess of Thousand Illusions finally couldn't help it, her little face was flushed, and she said to Xiao Xiaoyao: "Why are you so enthusiastic about that woman?" She's not your relative, so why don't you see you being so enthusiastic about me? We're teammates anymore, and I'm not much better looking than her? What an eyeless guy. ”
