Chapter 122: Back to the City
When Xia Cao and the others returned to the city again, they didn't want to go back to the city so troublesomely, and they needed to check their identities carefully. When the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info went back to the city, the soldiers who defended the city gave Li Weicai a sign, and he could enter and leave freely.
However, because people are returning to the county seat from the square at this time, it is still very slow to enter the city, a little faster than the turtle moving.
After entering the city gate, the flow of people was too large, and the carriage was inconvenient to walk, so I got out of the carriage. The mayor took Li Weicai to the yamen of the county government, saying that there was a dinner table meeting of the mayors of each town.
The rest of the people naturally had Xia Muhan take them to the restaurant to solve the problem of food and clothing. Li Yu and Li Man knew more about the situation in the county than Xia Muhan, so he and a group of foodies who were waiting to be fed to find the restaurant.
"Master, this restaurant is opened by my second uncle, and the taste is similar to that of our family's taste hall." Li Yu pointed to a restaurant in front of him and said.
Li Tang didn't care about so much, walked into the restaurant, found an empty table to sit down, and said to Xiao Er in the store, "Bring us a sweet and sour pork ribs, leek eggs, steamed tofu, vinegared fish, and braised pork." ”
Because this restaurant is relatively small, there is no box on the second floor, only the lobby on the first floor, for guests to eat, but they are all home-cooked food, the price is not expensive, now is the time to eat, the flow of people is quite a lot.
"Guest, what you just said was too fast, I don't remember clearly. Say it again, please. Xiao Er said to Li Tang sweating profusely.
There are too many people for a few days, and the dishes ordered at each table are different, and he is afraid of making mistakes, so every time a guest orders a dish, he has to repeat it and remember it clearly, before he dares to place an order.
Li Tang had to speak patiently again, and this time he spit out word by word, for fear that Xiao Er would not remember.
"Master, you see what else you want. My second uncle's small shop is more delicious than these. After Li Tang finished ordering, he found that there was still a large group of people around, and said with some embarrassment.
"What soup do you have here?" Xia Muhan said.
"Master, I know, the fish head tofu soup here is delicious." Li Tang couldn't help but say, his mouth just likes to invite merit in front of the master, and Li Tang feels that he can't control his mouth in this matter.
"Then have another fish head tofu soup and stir-fry a few green vegetables. Every dish I just mentioned should be portioned in large portions. Xia Muhan said.
When these dozen or so children were growing up, they naturally had a lot of food, especially the training some time ago, so that their food volume had expanded unconsciously.
"Have you heard? Wait a minute, Zhu Ye Zhai won't talk about the book, saying that there is an auction. Someone at the next table gossiped.
"What is an auction? Isn't this Zhuye Zhai specialized in selling tea and wine? How can it want to sell something else today. Someone responded.
"You didn't hear the story of the zodiac a few days ago, people can release the news, this auction is proposed by someone who specializes in writing the zodiac."
……
Xia Cao didn't expect the auction they prepared to be so popular, and they could hear other people's discussions after eating. However, it also shows from the side that their early publicity is in place and the auction will be hyped to a certain height.
After eating, Xia Cao and his family were going to Zhuye Zhai to watch and supervise the auction, Li Tang and the others had nothing to do, and they were also curious about this so-called auction, and they also followed Xia Cao's family to Zhuye Zhai to join in the fun.
"Hey, why did you come here, Mr. Xia, I'm afraid that you won't come, this auction, we haven't done it in Zhuyezhai, and it's really not good to press the field without you beside you." The shopkeeper of Zhuye Zhai is waiting in his own store, and the door is about to become a Wangfu stone. As soon as Xia Qiaomu appeared, he immediately caught him.
"Young Master Xia, please come in, we are still waiting for you to preside over the overall situation." Zhu Yezhai seemed to see a savior, and when he saw Xia Qiaomu, he pulled him inside.
"By the way, my young master is also here, and he is waiting for you in the pantry on the second floor." The shopkeeper remembered something again and said to Xia Qiaomu.
Xia Cao and they were stunned as soon as they entered Zhuye Zhai, and they didn't think that it was densely packed with people, and even the corridor on the second floor was full of people, all talking about what the auction was.
"Shopkeeper, why hasn't the auction started yet!"
"That's it, how long does the shopkeeper keep us waiting."
"This auction will end soon, and I'm still waiting to hear the next time of the zodiac."
As soon as the shopkeeper appeared in the lobby, he attracted many eyeballs, and the impatient guests couldn't help but shoot at him.
"Everyone, don't be impatient, the auction is ready to start, take a sip of tea first and moisten your throat." The shopkeeper has experienced a lot, and it is also easy to appease the guests.
After speaking, he took Xia Qiaomu and his party to the pantry on the second floor where Wang Chaoyang was waiting.
"Big brother, I don't think they take you seriously at all, and they make us wait so long every time, which is really reasonable! Big brother, I can't figure it out, just a few little dolls in the countryside, how can they let you come all the way like this. A woman in pink clothes said.
This is the girl who dressed as a man brought out by Wang Chaoyang last time, and she hasn't worn men's clothes since she was humiliated by Xia Cao last time.
This time, she knew that her eldest brother was coming to Wujiang County, and she also pestered Wang Chaoyang to come together.
"I'm curious about what a little doll that can get into my cousin's eyes looks like." A magnetic voice with a man's voice said.
"I also met a friend's sister yesterday, who has good guts, and she doesn't change her face in the face of my eldest brother, and she makes my eldest brother so angry that her face is red, and I'm really happy to think about it now!" The male voice continued.
If Xia Cao saw it, she would find that this man was Qing Xuan, who had been trying to take advantage of Li Yu last night.
Qingxuan's mother and Wang Chaoyang's father are brother and sister, but they are half-sisters, Qingxuan's mother is just a concubine in the Wang family, you know, the population of the ancient big family was mixed, and it was not normal to have few aunts.
"Oh? Someone else is angry with Cousin Qingfeng on your territory? Wang Jiaojiao asked, a hint of gossip flashing in her eyes.
However, the sound of footsteps in the hallway interrupted their discussion.
"This is it! Xia Gongzi, please come in, I won't go in, there are still a bunch of things waiting for me downstairs. The shopkeeper knocked on the room and slipped away.
Li Tang and the others also felt that Xia Cao and they went in to talk about business, which involved trade secrets, and it was not good for them to follow, so they stood outside the corridor and waited.
Xia Muhan pushed open the door and went in, and found two men and a woman sitting in the private room, but judging from the clothes, bearing, and sitting posture, it should be from a big family, with a good upbringing, and it should be the young owner of Zhuye Zhai.
"I haven't seen you for a few days, you've all changed, and I can't even recognize it." Wang Chaoyang stood up and said.
"Hello! This should be Uncle Xia! I am Wang Chaoyang, the young owner of Zhuye Zhai. Wang Chaoyang didn't expect Xia Muhan to come, so he had to introduce himself again.
Today, Xia Cao's family wore the new clothes made by the Su family a few days ago, pure cotton clothes, which were really different from the white linen cloth they wore in the Qingcha tube before. Changing into new clothes, my spirit has increased by one or two times, and after a little grooming, it really looks like a new person.
"Aren't you Li Yu's younger brothers and sisters? Why are you here? Without waiting for Wang Chaoyang's introduction, Qingxuan screamed in surprise when he saw Xia Cao and Xia Maihe. (To be continued.) )
