The boat stopped at the wharf of Hungry Tiger Town smoothly, Li Molin stood on the shore and recalled a section of the peach blossom crossing, and couldn't help but look at the grace who was happily appreciating the scenery with the green warbler.

Under the golden sunset, Xi'en wore a purple dress, and the corners of her skirt flew gently with the river breeze. Raven's long hair hung down behind her, and she was leaning down to take in a clump of unknown flowers. The laughter and joy add more life to the dock in the twilight.

"Miss, let's hurry to the town to find a place to live, it's better to look at the little flowers and grass." She wanted to say that the flowers and plants in the Bai family's garden were not as rare and beautiful as they were, and she swallowed back the words with interest.

Xi'en didn't care, he looked at the flowers and plants on the shore unsatisfactorily, lifted his skirt and stood up, "You're right, it's because you have to plan ahead for everything when you go out, so you can save time and hurry." ”

Qingying was praised and felt that she had done it properly, and said in pieces, "This hungry tiger town is not a good place to hear the name, and the slave maid always feels that her heart is not steady, if something doesn't happen, the slave and maid don't want to stay here." ”

"You don't know this, although this town is called "Hungry Tiger", but in fact it is the most simple place with good public order. There is also an allusion here, saying that during the founding of the Daze Dynasty, the Black Tiger General suppressed a group of mountain bandits here, and the battle was fought to the earth-shattering ghosts and gods, the grass and trees changed color when they smelled, the mountains and rivers froze when they listened, and the houses collapsed with a bang, and the women and children cried in mourning. ”

"Stop, Young Master Li, you should be brief, just say what the result is." Qingying poked her head impatiently, and a bun face appeared between Li Molin and Xi'en.

"Your young lady likes to listen, don't interrupt, Marshmallow." Li Molin grabbed the green warbler and threw it back, and it was a pity to catch up with him at a trot.

"My young lady is not interested in what you say!" Qingying muttered a mum and said, and then stomped her feet in a sudden realization, "What kind of marshmallow, people don't have such a cold face for a girl." "I was so angry that my bun's face was elongated, so it was like a big winter melon.

"Miss Qingying, hurry up, it is said that there is a big worm here when it is dark." Ma Jun's words frightened the warbler and flew away like a frightened bird. "Brother Ma still thinks that Merlin is not narrow enough, and it is really not the husband's work to bully a girl's family like this." Wang Boxian usually speaks little, but at this time he somehow interjected a sentence, and after speaking, he looked at Qingying's frightened back and shook his head again and again.

"Brother Wang said that I was alarmist, what do you think is coming up from behind?"

Wang Boxian followed what Ma Jun said and looked back, only to see three or five scholars who looked like scholars also disembarked from the boat and went ashore, looking at the clothes that were similar to himself, I don't know what Ma Jun's intentions were.

Ma Jun's young master from the official family, no one has seen him, and his head is closer to Wang Boxian, "The scholar has this skill, the finger bones are thick, and the tiger's mouth is covered with a thick layer of cocoons, and it will not be like this without three or five years of training." ”

Poor Wang Boxian was short-sighted, and he stared at it for a while and still didn't notice anything, but he just wanted to have more than one thing than less, urging a lively Ma Jun, and the two of them hurriedly looked for a few people in Molin.

On a dark summer day, I saw that it was already a regular card, and Hungry Tiger Town was indeed a lively place as Li Molin said. The streets are full of people with burdens, burdens, and cattle driving away from the town, cows, donkeys, mules, dung, bagasse, and firewood mixed in the floating soil and sand, and the soup, cakes, pots, and stoves built of stones and rotten bricks are still in the embers, and the green smoke is curling. Ma Jun even asked a few inns in front of the gate, all of them were full, he originally planned to recuperate for the night, but at the moment he was tired and hungry, and he couldn't help but be a little depressed.

"A few people want to live in the hotel, although the small shop is simple, but it is clean and tidy, there is hot water and hot soup, you might as well go in and have a look."

Xi En was standing on the side of the road looking at the surrounding environment, and suddenly heard someone come to talk, and unexpectedly looked over, and saw that it was an old man wearing a long shirt of coarse green cloth, on which countless patches were connected.

"Anyone dares to come and solicit business, we won't go." Qingying's round eyes swirled, and she looked at the person with a thief.

The old man had been puffing up for a long time before he dared to come forward to talk, and he was shriveled up like a deflated ball by Qingying's words, and his hands seemed to have nowhere to put them, and his face was full of disappointment. Nene said to himself, "That's it, that's it, the shop is small." He turned and walked back.

Xi'en has been living abroad for three years, what kind of cold world has not been seen, and at a glance, he knows that this old man's family must be living a very difficult life, otherwise he would not be able to come out to solicit business in person. Thinking of Uncle Niu again, he couldn't help but feel compassion, waved his hand and said, "Old man, please come back, we are worried that we can't find a place to stay, so we will borrow your place to make a point." ”

The old man had no hope, but when he heard it, he was doing it again, but he just thought he was hallucinating, and stayed where he was.

Qingying guessed that the young lady had committed the mistake of pity for the poor and the weak again, although she was unhappy in her heart, she didn't dare to refuse, and shouted, "You didn't hear, my young lady said that she would stay in your store tonight, so don't lead the way quickly." ”

The two of them took Magu and followed the old man around the corner and arrived at the store. It is said to be a store, but in fact there are two rooms in front, and there are two darkrooms in the back. To be honest, this can't be called a "shop", it's just a street resident, a stall selling porridge and rice. The furnishings in the hall of the store are very simple, two bellows and wood-pot chimneys on the west wall lead to the outside of the house, like a pot to make rice and a pot to stir-fry, a board is supported next to it, and there are more than a dozen small pestles next to the four low tables, which are for the guests to sit and eat, and the tables and stools are wiped very clean.

"I have a cold meal here, only home-cooked meals, white flour cakes rolled with scallion dipping sauce, porridge is ready-made, and home-pickled side dishes, I want to eat noodles freshly made." The old man moved the bench and moved the table diligently, lest a few delicate guests be dissatisfied.

Qingying looked at the displeasure of the boss in her heart, pinched her nose and said in disgust, "It's so thick smoke, presumably the place to live is not much better, Miss, let's change it, maybe Young Master Li has already found a better place to live." ”

The old man didn't expect them to have companions, and it sounded like a young master, and he had no idea.

"The old man can just cook some food and drink, as much as you have here, we don't choose." After speaking, he turned back to Qingying and said, "They are them, if you think it is better for them to find a few places, just go, I will never stop them." A few words were neither light nor heavy, but their faces had changed significantly. How can Qingying eat sin, she is not used to being free and loose in the first place, she came back to her senses, fell to her knees with a plop, and begged for mercy again and again, "The slave and maid made a time, and begged the young lady to forgive the slave and maid for the sake of the past feelings, and I will not dare to do it in the future." ”
