Chapter Forty-Six: A Guest
Li Xin accompanied the shopkeeper Sun to talk for a while, then went to the kitchen together and showed the sweet potatoes to the shopkeeper Sun. In fact, sweet potatoes are not easy to cook, Li Xin also made a few desserts, it is better to make sweet potatoes into vermicelli and starch, sweet potato vermicelli is easy to eat, and sweet potato starch can also be made into cold powder to eat, which is also very good.
At noon, Wen Bo and Wen Hao also came to Pinxiang Pavilion for dinner, and Li Xin took his two younger sisters to have lunch here, and then went back to the town house together.
"Second brother, I miss you so much." When she got home, Yueting and Wen Hao were tired of being together.
"What, Xiaoting just thinks about your second brother?" Wen Bo glared at Yueting.
"I miss my big brother too." Yueting pounced towards Wenbo with a flattering face. Li Xin watched her younger brothers and sisters play happily, and she was in a good mood, in fact, after coming to this world, she smiled more than before. In those empty days of the past, people seem to have become sad and joyless.
"Eldest sister, it's okay at home!" After playing with Yueting for a while, Wenbo talked to Li Xin. To be honest, the eldest sister lives alone in the village with her two younger sisters, and he has never been able to rest assured. The location of the home is too remote, and it is some distance from the village. Moreover, there is also a second uncle's family in the village who has always been ill-intentioned towards the family. For such a so-called relative, he has long lost any hope, last time he even dared to go to the house to steal things, even if he was discovered, he still looked like he was unrepentant, such a person, he has long been no longer regarded as his own relatives. He was really afraid that the family would not die, and he was not afraid of losing something at home, that is, hurting the eldest sister and two younger sisters.
"Don't worry! It's all right! I didn't come these days because my family was too busy, and the food could be harvested, so I couldn't do it. Fortunately, Uncle Zhang's family came to help, and the village chief also brought some people to help collect it, so he took everything back. After what happened last time, no one should dare to have bad intentions anymore, besides, there are dogs in the house! Even if you can't bite someone, you can also call, and when you call, you can always attract the attention of others! ”
"That being said, the eldest sister still has to be more careful, for fear that someone will still be thieves."
"If you really dare to be thieves, I won't let them go again." For Li Changgui's family, she is already very disgusted now, it is best not to come to her family's attention again, otherwise she will definitely not be merciful again. I let them go last time because I wanted to get out of the relationship, otherwise where would she make them so happy. "Are you and Wen Hao okay in the academy? How's it going? ”
"Fortunately, Master Zhou taught very well, and we also have intentions. By the way, Mr. Zhou also said thank you for the osmanthus cake we sent! said that the eldest sister's hands are so skillful. ”
"Master Zhou is too polite, it's just a bit of food. You know it's good to study hard. ”
After resting at home for a while, Wenbo and Wenhao were also going to the academy, so Li Xin also cleaned up and went out with his two younger sisters. It is true that she has not been to the town for some days, and since she has come, she has taken Yuexiang and Yueting to walk around the town. On weekdays, when he goes to Li Xin's house, Shopkeeper Sun will ask the guy to bring some along the way, and sometimes Li Xin will ask the guy to help buy anything she needs, so she doesn't often come to shop.
Today is not the day of the market, so the streets are not lively, that is, some fixed shops are open. After shopping around and buying some things, Li Xin took his two younger sisters back to Osmanthus Village. When he was about to get home, he suddenly found that a carriage was parked in front of his house, and Li Xin was a little strange. Except for Pinxiang Pavilion, their family doesn't know any rich families! And the guys from Pinxiangge only came in the morning, and it is impossible to come again now, and the carriage is not the one that the guys from Pinxiangge catch up with every day.
couldn't figure out who it was for a while, so Li Xin had to walk over slowly. A man driving a carriage was sitting on the wheel with a bored face, in his early twenties, and his appearance was ordinary, and the clothes on his body were a little like those worn by a man.
"What is this little brother doing by parking the carriage in front of my house?" Li Xin was sure that she had never seen this person.
"You're the owner of this house?" The man glanced at Li Xin with some contempt.
"I am indeed the owner of this house, if the little brother is okay, move the carriage, you are blocking my way home." Li Xin frowned, and she didn't know what this person meant by stopping the carriage in front of her house. I don't feel annoyed when I don't speak, and when I open my mouth, I don't like it. I don't think he's a great person! even looked like his eyes were above the top.
"The master is back!" When the sound sounded, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a man stepped out of the carriage. The appearance of the year of confusion is very thin and has a long face. He was wearing silk clothes, and he looked like a decent person, but a pair of eyes always made people feel uncomfortable, as if he was calculating something all the time.
"I'm the master here, I don't know what you're looking for me?"
"It turned out to be Miss Li! How? Don't you want me to come in and sit down? The man looked at Li Xin with a smile on his face, and his hand was still brushing his beard, which was not luxuriant, and he tried to pretend to be gentle.
"If you have something to say, let's talk outside, only me and my two sisters are here, it's really not good to entertain people."
"Okay, then I'll get straight to the point, my surname is Zhao, and I am the shopkeeper of the town. I came to the girl today, because I heard that the girl has some novel vegetables here, I wonder if the girl can sell the things to the guests? ”
"Zhao's shopkeeper is late, I have always sold things to Pinxiangge, as the saying goes, it is better to be raw than cooked, I have cooperated with Pinxiangge several times, otherwise I will sell it to others." It turned out to be someone who came from a visitor! I'm afraid that the business of Pinxiang Pavilion has improved recently, and the guests can't sit still! That's why I'm going to make this trip. Originally, this kind of thing was common, and it wasn't a big deal, but she just didn't like some people who came to see the fate of the guests. What kind of master is there, what kind of slave there is, this shopkeeper doesn't look like a good person, no wonder the guys are all eyes above the top, and there is no one in their eyes.
"The girl does business, naturally to make money, as long as the girl sells things to the guests, the price can be higher than that of Pinxiang Pavilion." The shopkeeper Zhao looked at Li Xin with a bewitching look, maybe he thought he was smiling sweetly, but Li Xin felt that it was obviously obscene
