Xi'en still wanted to reprimand a few words, but when he looked up and saw that the muddy donkey and Xu Huozi had finished their work, he stopped and said, "Everyone has a bad time, if you pick and choose like this, I won't dare to use you again." ”

Qingying hurriedly got up from the ground, and seeing that Xi'en was still angry, she secretly thought to herself, "It's because I haven't come back to my senses, and the young lady at this time is far from the delicate rich daughter of three years ago." ”

The muddy donkey came in with a smile and said, "Miss really has good eyesight, this place is quiet and comfortable, although it is a little simpler, but it is absolutely no problem to deal with one night." ”

Xi En knew that she had heard what she had just reprimanded Qingying, so she didn't answer, and asked directly, "Did you buy something back?" ”

Xu Huozi took out a package, "It's all here, according to the eldest lady's orders, it's very neat." It's just a carriage to be hired, and the coachman has a job to get out of town today, and he won't be back until later. I'll just let him not have to come over, and I'll get up early tomorrow and wait for us. ”

Xi En stopped talking, here the old man put out the rice, the white flour, corn yellow and white two-color pancakes are crispy and fragrant, and there are green onions, ginger shreds, vinegar and garlic moss, red peppers, turnip ginger, and the sauce dish is mixed with small grinding sesame oil, as well as raw pickled celery, tofu dice, green and white emerald red case full of fragrant fragrance. Qingying has never eaten this kind of meal in her life, and she rolled cornmeal pancakes with green onion dipping sauce and small tofu, and she praised again and again, "It's delicious, it's delicious!" Xi En smiled unconsciously, "You are a frog at the bottom of the well, you only know the fine clothes and jade food of big families, and you don't know that this small family has a different flavor, and you can't be tricky in the future?" ”

Qingying was just blamed, only worried about how to redeem it, and at this moment, when she saw that the young lady was talking to herself again, she grinned and smirked and really knew that she was wrong.

The muddy donkey didn't eat anything, and whispered to the old man, "Is there meat?" I didn't want to be heard by the careful Xi'en, so I said, "You can't do without meat, don't be restrained, just let the old man get meat, he doesn't have it in the store, and some of it outside buys it back." This journey is hard, and it is natural to eat and drink casually. ”

The old man smiled with a wooden face, feeling a little embarrassed, "Our shop is small, we don't always prepare these expensive dishes, I'll go to the front and cut two catties of cooked beef for you." Saying that, he shouted to the inner door, "Qiangzi, stop studying, thinking about those useless people every day, it's better to help my father do something to earn a few coppers." Hurry up to the front street beef Li family to bring two catties of cooked beef back, the guest officer can wait. ”

After a while, a young student of medium stature came out of it, looking a little similar to the old man, about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a big nose and a wide head, and very honest.

"Dad, it's nothing to cut beef, but I still owe the Li family 200 coppers right now, even if people don't say it, I don't care about it. When I went to Li's house, I had to go back to the front of the Spring Hall, and the guys there saw me again, and my mother was sick and had a hundred children who had not returned the medicine. Qiangzi scratched his head and talked for a long time, his face turned red, which showed that he had reached the point of last resort.

"That's all it takes for you to cut some beef, a few guest officers can't just pay it back after eating, and then break your dog's leg in a rambling way!" The old man was a little anxious and angry at his son.

The strong son didn't dare to fight back, and was about to go out with his head drooping. This time, there is no need to say that Qingying has already taken out the silver and said, "We will pay for the meal first, so you don't have to be embarrassed." As he spoke, he handed over a silver horn, "This silver can even be repaid for your mother's medicine first, you don't need to be grateful, just be careful." ”

The old man was indispensable, just about to kneel, but he felt that he was not sincere enough, so he turned around and rolled the noodles vigorously, chopped the green onions, ginger and garlic, and poured all his gratitude into a bowl of noodles.

After eating, they entered the backyard, two wings in the east and west, and the three female guests settled down in the east house. Qingying tidied up the bed, while chanting, "Rely on your mother at home, go out against the wall", Miss, you sleep on this bed inside, and people sleep against the wall steadily. Entering the door a bed is Magu's, although she looks like a living person, clothing, food, housing and transportation are all what others say, never say a word. The room was small, with two beds sandwiched between a table and an old pear chair, and only a narrow side of the room remained. Qingying put a soft cushion on the chair and leaned on the side to keep vigil and nap.

"I said brother, it's better for you to deliver the letter, I don't think I'm a little unsure in my heart, I'm afraid that the eldest lady will have something to do. You go back quickly, let's just take turns to sleep sloppy. The muddy donkey's feet were soaked in the warm water, and he squinted at the donkey's eyes and said to Xu Huozi, who was just about to lie down.

"I think you're a lazy donkey on the road - there is a lot of and urine, and you can turn around when you send a message in front, how much it can cost you, be careful that the eldest lady asks Ming'er, and you go to talk about it yourself." Xu Huozi snorted angrily. His body is heavy, and people who have been extremely tired in the past few days can't wait to plunge into the dark and sweet dreamland, where to deal with the donkey.

"No, when we first entered the store, there were a few people who followed behind and there was no shadow, if they lived in the store, no one came forward to ask. But if you don't want to find a place to stay, what kind of business is it to go to this remote place for nothing? The muddy donkey was conjecturing on his own. Xu Huozi couldn't sleep anymore, as soon as he lifted the quilt and sat up, he was more careful than the muddy donkey, and exclaimed, "Isn't that what you said, we must have been targeted by the thief on Taohuadu again, don't let the eldest lady know in advance, so as not to surprise her." I'll go to Young Master Li and them, and ask them to take precautions first, and if there is something to do, come over in time to help. "I don't need to be urged by a donkey, I put on my shoes and go out, and there is no one.

Ma Jun asked for a table of good wine and food, and at this moment he was pouring a bowl full of sea and sending it to Li Molin, "Good brother, you have won our good for nothing, not to mention that you are grateful, you can't quit this bowl of wine, hurry up and drink it." ”

Li Molin stepped back with a haha, his eyes still looked out from time to time, it was already dark, and he still didn't see a few people entering the store, I don't know if the guy who went to pick up people came back.

"Brother Ma, don't force him, it is obvious that Mo Lin has something in his heart, and if the white girl doesn't come, he is not sure." There were just three of them on the table, and Wang Boxian lost his usual calmness, so he joked.

"The girl is a wise man, but she is afraid of selling her—and the man will count the money for her. You don't have to worry about this heart, we escaped death today, we should celebrate our lives, come, hurry up and do this sea. As he spoke, he poured wine again.

Li Molin reluctantly took the wine bowl and was about to send it to his mouth, when he saw Xu Huozi hurriedly coming in from outside the door, and said in a panic, "Is there something wrong with your young lady?" ”
