Chapter VII
It wasn't until Xiang Xiaoer's back disappeared into the vast sea of people that Lu Wenhou retracted his gaze.
Then he gulped down the already cold steamed bun in his hand, and his eyes were unconsciously red.
"Ahem, ahem!"
Because I was in such a hurry to eat, I couldn't help coughing.
But even so, he still didn't stop, gobbling up the whole steamed bun.
Then I looked at the streets coming and going in a daze.
"Even if you know the name, a waste person, you don't know how to live tomorrow."
Lu Wenhou smiled self-deprecatingly and touched his thigh, which was sore from sitting for a long time.
"Wait, sour?"
Lu Wenhou's eyes widened, and he touched his legs incredulously.
"Feelings?"
"Do I feel in my legs?"
"My legs feel something!"
"Hahahaha!"
The people on the street turned their eyes to this man who was crying and laughing like crazy.
"I'm afraid this person is not crazy."
Xiang Xiaoer, who had long since disappeared into the sea of people, shook his head with a smile when he heard Lu Wenhou's voice.
"This bearing still needs to be practiced, how can it be like I am not shocked."
"Goo~"
It's a pity that the stomach destroyed this pampered and unfazed bearing, and took out a cold steamed bun from his arms again, and finally put it back:
"Forget it, let's have a good meal first, there are not many steamed buns, keep them for emergency."
Thinking of this, Xiang Xiaoer inquired about the famous tavern in Yumen Pass, and then went straight to it.
"Sorry, we're not thinking about it yet."
"I'm sorry, I'm talking to my guy."
"I'm sorry, we can't afford to hire a storyteller."
"I'm sorry, but don't go, I'm not done yet."
Don't finish it, this perfunctory excuse gives me goosebumps.
Xiang Xiaoer walked out of a tavern again, looking at the people coming and going on the street, he couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Life is not easy, it's better to be a dragon, someone to raise, usually just use it as a waste to sell cuteness to eat, unlike now you have to work hard.
The point is that no one wants a part-time job yet.
"Goo~"
The stomach made a protest sound again.
"Don't scream, look at your little breath, you haven't screamed yet, you enjoy it first."
Xiang Xiaoer scolded his unangry stomach, and took out a cold steamed bun from his arms.
To eat or not to eat?
This is a problem.
Forget it, I still don't eat it.
I ate it in the city, and what would I do when I got to a deserted place?
After thinking about it, Xiang Xiaoer decided to go to dinner first, although there was no money in his pocket, but it didn't affect the meal.
I found a nice tavern, tidied up my clothes and walked in.
"Little two."
There were not many people in the tavern, so Xiang Xiaoer found a place to sit down casually and greeted Xiao Er when he entered the door.
"What do you want to eat?"
Xiao Er quickly put down the food from the other tables and walked over.
"What do you guys have to eat here?"
I don't have any money, but it's not false at all.
"Guest officer, our lotus leaf chicken here is a must, and the entire Yumen Pass is top-notch."
Xiao Er licked his smiling face and began to introduce.
"Well, there's a lotus leaf chicken, but there is mutton."
"There's still half a catty."
"Cut a piece and bring it to me, and bring me a pot of good wine, plus two bowls of rice."
"We're a big bowl, can you finish eating two bowls?"
Xiao Er is a sincere person, although it is naturally best to sell one more, but he can't bear to hurt customers, he still can't help but mention it.
"Don't worry, I eat a lot, my eldest brother has a treat today, just come up."
"Okay, a lotus leaf chicken, half a catty of mutton, a pot of good wine, and two bowls of rice."
As soon as he heard that someone was treating, Xiao Er thought that someone would come over in a while, so he nodded and retreated.
Looking at the tavern Xiaoer who was in a good mood, Xiang Xiaoer smiled and said:
Laugh more, you will cry later, although we are both little second brothers, but the second brother is really hungry, and he can only harm your second brother.
There are not many people in the tavern, so the kitchen serves the food quickly,
didn't wait for a while, Xiao Er took a lotus leaf chicken and half a tael of mutton and put it on Xiang Xiaoer's table.
Xiang Xiaoer rolled up his sleeves, couldn't wait to tear off the chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth.
Xiao Er looked at Xiang Xiaoer, who looked like he was quite Sven, and he always had a bad premonition in his heart.
Please eat, that person won't come, right? If you really don't come, can this man afford to eat?
Although he was a little hesitant, seeing that Xiang Xiaoer was not a scoundrel, the tavern Xiaoer still chose to temporarily believe in this person who should not be believed.
Ma Li brought two bowls of rice and a pot of wine, and Xiao Er said:
"Guest, you use it slowly."
Then turn around and entertain other guests.
Xiang Xiaoer nodded to him with a lot of "grace", and then began to fight against the plate.
Soon a lotus leaf chicken with lotus leaves left appeared on the plate.
The drinkers at the other tables around looked at Xiang Xiaoer, who didn't even spit out the bones, and couldn't help but swallow.
Is it really that delicious?
Everyone wanted to ask, but everyone was a good-faced person, how could they ask this, so:
"Xiao Er, give me some lotus leaf chicken."
"Great!"
"Little second brother, give me a lotus leaf chicken."
"Gotcha!"
"Second brother, bring me a lotus leaf."
"Okay~ a ghost, stay and go to you bear child."
The tavern Xiao Er looked at the little daughter of the rouge shop next door who was sitting at the dinner table and pretending to be a guest, and shouted:
"Widow Sun, your daughter came here to make trouble again."
"I know, you are a mourner, how many times have you called Sister Sun, Sister Sun, you have to let the whole of Luoyang know that I killed a man, right?"
From the rouge shop next door, there was a lion roar from Hedong.
"Widow Sun, aren't you stealing from men? This is Yumen Pass, not the imperial capital of Luoyang. ”
A shopkeeper who was sleeping on the counter of the tavern was woken up and scolded back.
"Your old lady only stole men, no, your old lady and I don't steal men, you call widows every day, which one of the Yumen passes doesn't know that I killed a man, sooner or later it will have to be transmitted to Luoyang."
The sturdy widow Sun didn't care about her image at all, and scolded her, causing a burst of laughter from the guests in the tavern.
"Everyone, drink, don't be like this crazy woman, she killed a man on the day she got married, and she gave birth to a daughter, and now she doesn't know how to avoid suspicion and show up in business, not to mention, but also scolding the street like a splash."
The tavern shopkeeper couldn't pull down his face and scolded him, so he had to admit it, and he didn't forget to explain to the drinkers present.
"The shopkeeper's splashing skin is suitable to describe such a strong man, and it should be a fierce woman who is more appropriate."
A man dressed as a scholar fanned his mouth.
"Splash skin and, it's better to be called a shrew."
The companion at the table answered.
Then there was laughter in the tavern.
Xiang Xiaoer's brows furrowed.
The rice is good rice, and the wine is barely swallowed, but people are a little unappetizing.
"Brother, are you hot?"
A crisp children's voice sounds.
The daughter of Widow Sun's family stared at the big eyes of the water and asked the scholar who fanned the fan.
The corner of the scholar's mouth smiled disdainfully, and he did not reply, but scolded.
"Those who don't have a father are uneducated."
It's winter now, how can it be hot.
"He's not cold."
Xiang Xiaoer picked up the wine jug and poured a sip of wine into his mouth, and interjected with a smile.
"Then why does my brother keep fanning him."
The girl's eyes flashed with a gleam, and she turned to Xiang Xiaoer and asked:
"Because."
Xiang Xiaoer grinned at the girl:
"Some idiot fanned all year round, not because he was hot, but because he wanted to fan the water out of his head."
The girl paused for a moment, then smiled sweetly.
"I see, thank you, big brother."
"You're calling me a fool."
The scholar also froze, and then slammed the table and stood up to question Xiang Xiaoer.
"It seems that you are not as good as a child, I am scolding you for having water in your brain, idiot."
Xiang Xiaoer picked up a piece of mutton and put it in his mouth.
Well, that's fragrant.
"You."
The scholar glared at Xiang Xiaoer viciously, and then sat down with a cold snort:
"It's vulgar, I don't care to be like you villain."
Xiang Xiaoer shook his head disdainfully, not arguing.
No matter what dynasty or generation, there will never be a shortage of fools who think they are superior.
The girl glanced at the deflated scholar, and then glanced at Xiang Xiaoer, who was eating mutton, and walked over crisply.
"Big brother, is it delicious?"
"To be honest, it's not very tasty, but I can only tell you this secretly, and I can't say it in front of the tavern shopkeeper, or I'll blame me for talking nonsense next time he sells it."
Listening to Xiang Xiaoer's words, the drinker and the shopkeeper couldn't help but have a black line.
Are you so loud that you still say that you are carrying people?
"In this way, then I won't tell others, so that the shopkeeper won't blame the big brother if he can't sell it."
The girl's eyes widened as she stared at the little lamb left on the plate.
Xiang Xiaoer shook his head, smiled and picked up a piece of mutton with his hand and handed it to the girl's mouth:
"That's good, it's a reward for you."
The girl looked at the mutton and then at Xiang Xiaoer, who was squinting and smiling, and finally opened her mouth and let Xiang Xiaoer bring the mutton to her mouth.
"Well, it's not tasty at all."
The girl squinted her eyes and said something unconvincing.
Chewing and chewing, his nose suddenly turned red, and pearls flowed out of the corners of his eyes uncontrollably.
Xiang Xiaoer raised his hand and touched the other party's little head and said:
"That's good!"
At this time, a scantily dressed, beautiful-looking woman walked into the tavern, and it was Widow Sun from the rouge shop next door.
Widow Sun saw that her heart was standing in front of a strange man and weeping.
Immediately made up a big drama in his brain, it must be this man who took advantage of the fact that he no longer bullied his baby daughter.
"Why? Why? A big man bullies a child, and you can do it! ”
Three steps and two steps, rushed to Xiang Xiaoer, hugged his daughter, and yelled at him.
I was just a guest because I was a guest, so I let my daughter be bullied so much.
Xiang Xiaoer smiled indifferently, turned around and continued to deal with the little mutton he had left.
As soon as she saw that the other party confessed, the unforgiving widow Sun was about to scold, and the daughter in her arms wiped her eyes and pushed her mother away and hurriedly spoke.
"Mom, no, you misunderstood, brother ~ woo woo ~ brother didn't bully me."
Naturally, Widow Sun didn't believe this.
"I didn't bully you, why did you cry so badly, don't be afraid, mom is here, no one wants to bully you today."
The voice of an enraged lioness widow made the innkeeper shrink back uncomfortably, and the tigress was about to exert her power again.
"No, I really didn't bully, my brother gave me meat to eat~ Woo woo ~ No one has ever been so good to me~"
Little Lori explained to her mother intermittently.
