Chapter Eighty-Four: The Sunset

Without waiting for Luo Lan to speak, Ah Li frowned and said to Xiao Zhi: "What is there to see, aren't you in a hurry to go to the academy?" ”

Xiao Zhi stuck out his tongue, "It won't be too long to take a look, and besides, Dazhi has already passed." ”

Hearing him say this, Luo Lan looked up and saw that Dazhi was really squeezing into the crowd.

Seeing that it was still early, she said to Xiao Zhi:

"Come back with a look, I'll be waiting for you here."

After getting Luo Lan's answer, Xiao Zhi nodded happily and ran over to the crowd.

For such a bustle, Luo Lan didn't want to squeeze her head to see, she looked at the surrounding stalls, there was a rock sugar gourd seller there, she said to Ah Li:

"Go buy some rock sugar gourds."

After Ah Li nodded, he beckoned to the old man with a rock sugar gourd in his hand, and the old man ran over with small steps.

"Girl, do you want sugar gourds?"

Ah Li nodded, then looked at Luo Lan, "Miss, buy a few?" ”

Luo Lan nodded and pondered for a while, "Buy four, one for each of the three of you, and take one back for the prince, he shouldn't have eaten it for a long time." ”

Ah Li said to the old man who sold sugar gourds:

"Take three."

Luo Lan frowned, "Didn't you ask you to take four?" ”

"I don't eat it, this thing is cold, I'm afraid I'll cough if I eat too much."

Yan Luo, she had already taken three sugar gourds from the old man's hands, and after paying the money, she distributed the sugar gourds to Dazhi and Xiaozhi who had just run back, and she held the remaining one in her hand.

Xiao Zhi and Da Zhi were so happy to see the sugar gourd.

Ah Li couldn't help but ask as he walked:

"What's up ahead?"

Xiao Zhi took a bite of the sugar gourd and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it and whimpered and said:

"There is a person who is practicing his fists and feet and wants to exchange some silver, but these people are gone after reading it, and he doesn't seem to have made any money."

Speaking of this, he shook his head and sighed, "This person is too, he doesn't do a good job of catching his head, and he wants to make money by performing arts?" ”

Xiao Zhi's words stopped Luo Lan, who was looking around, she looked at Xiao Zhi and asked in surprise:

"What did you say?"

Xiao Zhi pursed his lips and said:

"The people who watched the excitement said that this person used to catch heads, but for some reason, he suddenly came to the street to perform, and the people didn't buy his account, and they didn't give money just to see the excitement."

Headcatcher?

Luo Lan frowned suddenly, she raised her head and looked in the direction where Xiao Zhi went to see the excitement just now, there were no onlookers there at this time, and only one person was cleaning up things.

She looked around, wasn't that person the Zhang Yuan she saw in the Longevity Hall that day?

How could he be here?

Thinking of this, she walked quickly in the direction where Zhang Yuan was.

Zhang Yuan was packing up his things, and when he felt someone coming in front of him, he said without raising his head:

"It's done today, let's see if we come back tomorrow!"

"Zhang Yuan?"

She questioned in surprise, and Zhang Yuan raised his head at this time.

He probably couldn't remember who the woman in front of him was for a moment, so he hesitated.

"You ......"

Thinking of what happened that night in the Longevity Hall, he suddenly woke up,

"Are you Princess Yu?"

Luo Lan looked at him and pursed his lips and smiled, "Exactly, why are you doing this?" ”

Zhang Yuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, his fingers unconsciously tightened on his long sword, and then said:

"There's nothing wrong with this, relying on your ability to eat, you can earn a few hundred wen a day when it's good, enough for me and my mother to eat."

Seeing Zhang Yuan's current situation, Luo Lan suddenly felt that she was a little sorry for him, if it weren't for her business, Zhang Yuan would not have been personally vendetted by that Lu Weibao, maybe he could continue to be his head catcher.

Thinking of this, she said apologetically:

"Zhang Yuan, I'm sorry, if it weren't for the matter of my Yuwang Mansion......"

Zhang Yuan waved his hand directly and interrupted her words, "Princess Yu, don't say that, although I have only been in office for a month, I have done enough to catch the head, instead of following those dog officials to do that undesirable thing, it is better to rely on your own skills to make money in this way." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, an old lady dressed in plain clothes came to him in a panic.

"Yuan'er, how much do you earn today? Here they go again? ”

As soon as she finished speaking, two strong men came over with sticks in their hands, "Hey! Today is the deadline, if you don't pay back, let your son go to work with me as a coolie! ”

Hearing this, Zhang Yuan stepped forward, blocked his mother behind him, and said coldly:

"I said, I'll give it to you in three days, and today is only the next day, what are you anxious about?"

"Yo, Zhang Catcher, do you think you're still a headcatcher? Then we will respect you and give you enough time to be accommodating, but you are not angry, and you will be bombed home after a month, and your new house will be lived, and the money cannot be owed all the time. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Yuan's brows tightened, "Haven't I been making money!" ”

"You pay back that money, even the interest is not enough, we can't wait."

Hearing this, Luo Lan understood, it seemed that Zhang Yuan owed money to these two strong men, and people were staring at the door to ask for debts.

She glanced at the two strong men and asked softly:

"How much money does he owe you?"

Hearing Luo Lan speak, the two strong men looked at her, and a trace of obscenity instantly appeared in their eyes, and one of them even said with a sip of saliva and flirtatiousness:

"Yo, where is this little girl, if you can't get the money, you can use this woman to top it."

As soon as his words fell, Ah Li rushed over with an arrow, and before the man could react, he directly slapped him, and said hatefully in his mouth:

"Even Princess Yu dares to be frivolous, you really don't want to live."

Hearing the words Princess Yu, the two men were stunned for a moment, even if they could walk sideways at home, they didn't dare to confront the royal people, even if Prince Yu was not treated by the emperor, it was not something that ordinary people like them could afford to provoke.

The man who was slapped could only admit that he was unlucky, he gritted his teeth and looked at Luo Lan,

"Since Princess Yu and Zhang Yuan know each other, it is better to return the silver for him, so that we don't have to care about him all day long."

Hearing this, Zhang Yuan hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, "This matter has nothing to do with Princess Yu, I am the one who owes you the silver, and I will definitely pay it back before noon tomorrow." ”

"You?"

The man who asked for the debt glanced at Zhang Yuan disdainfully, "Just the few pennies you fool around on the street all day long, even the interest is not enough, counting on you, the year of the monkey and the month of the horse will not be paid, today I will put the words here, if you don't pay back the money, go to work as a coolie, when will you earn enough money owed to us, when can you pay back your freedom." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Yuan still wanted to reason with them, Luo Lan said directly:

"I paid it back for him, how much?"

Zhang Yuan hurriedly shook his head to stop, "Princess, you don't need to ......"

"It's okay, when I borrow you, I'll pay it back to me when I have you."
