Chapter 55: Panic
Out of King Pu's Mansion, Xin Xi didn't want to delay for a moment, walked directly to the street oil wall car, and threw out a tael of silver.
patted the oil wall car, and hurriedly said: "Chartered car!" Go to Xinjiazhuang! ”
Seeing the white flowers, the coachman's haggard face immediately put on a thick smile: "Okay, guest officer, please get in the car!" ”
Xin Xi quickly stepped on a small stool and boarded the oil wall car.
The coachman bent down with his hands and feet, and quickly grabbed the small stool with his feet onto the oil-walled cart, and at the same time, a whip was already drawn on the horse's buttocks.
"Try to be as fast as you can!"
"Don't worry, the old man also worked as a postman back then, and even the 800 miles expedited was delivered three times. Guest, sit tight! The coachman roared, and the horse quickly turned and headed for Central Street.
Hurry up, the oil wall rushed out like the wind, and the people on the side of the road scolded again and again in the dust and smoke.
The oil wall car went out of Central Street, then passed through East Cross Street, and after turning the intersection, it went out of Bianliang City.
Once out of town, the roads became bumpy, the carriage was bumpy, and the buttocks were tormented.
From afar, Xin Xi saw his house.
Rotten wooden gates, scattered black tiles, and occasionally cracked walls.
Perhaps, it's time to fix it sometime.
Hehe, I'm nervous...... Xin Zhen came back to his senses and couldn't help but be a little speechless.
He is such a person, the more nervous he is, the easier it is to think of trivial things that he usually doesn't notice.
His heart was beating uncontrollably, Xin Xi slowly got out of the carriage, and after taking a few deep breaths, he tried hard to keep a straight face and walked towards the door.
Raise your hand and get ready to knock on the door.
But as soon as he raised his hand, he hesitated, he was afraid that it would be Sima Yun who came to open the door, so it would be too sudden.
Perhaps, it is time to just push the door in?
Xin Xi raised his hand and pressed it on the door, pushing it hard, but the door didn't open, and the creaking sound resounded non-stop.
The creaking sound was heard, and the next second, a loud voice came from the courtyard: "Who is outside the door?" ”
Embarrassed!
Xin Zhen stared at the wooden door that was still swaying by himself, and scolded in his heart: Damn, tomorrow Lao Tzu will chop you for firewood!
While scolding, Xin Xi replied like a thief: "Xiang'er, it's me!" ”
"Eleven Lang? Coming back? Li San'er, go open the door! Xiang'er's voice came again.
Xin Xi was speechless for a while, even Xiang'er, this girl has learned to call people, this atmosphere of the exploiting class is unacceptable.
Through the crack in the door, I saw Li San'er, who was still dressed in tatters, and walked over.
The door bolt was pulled up, Li San'er quickly opened the door, and even though he saluted very solemnly: "I've seen Eleven Lang!" ”
"Well, okay, what are you?" Xin Zhen didn't understand what Li San'er was here for.
"Back to Eleven Lang, the little one is here to help carry the grain!" Li San'er is still very respectful.
Xin Xi then remembered that the big house was going to send 6,000 stone of grain today.
"Even if it's food, why do you have to bolt the door?"
"The food has already been delivered, and now it is all in the backyard, and Miss Xiang'er is afraid that someone will come to grab the food, so she bolts the door... Li San'er said as she spoke, and her tone gradually lowered.
It seems that you shouldn't say bad things about Miss Xiang'er, but you can't deceive Eleven Lang!
"Well, that's what Xiang'er did." Xin Zhen nodded speechlessly and strode towards the backyard. At the same time, he cautiously asked, "Who are the people who are here to help?" ”
When Li San'er heard this, he recalled seriously: "There are Brother Liu San'er, and Zhou Sanlang, and a total of more than 30 people, all of whom are brothers who follow Brother Liu San'er and Zhou Sanlang in the market. ”
Xin Xi stopped, with some anticipation: "Is there no one else?" ”
"No, there were ten house slaves coming over from the big house before, but they left half an hour ago." Li San'er replied with a straight look.
Isn't Sima Yun here?
Xin Zhen's nervous mood was relieved, but he was a little more disappointed.
Slowly walking into the backyard, the noise became clear.
"First put the cellar with oiled paper, which can prevent moisture."
"Slow down!"
"Attention. Put the new grain at the bottom of the cellar, and put the old grain on the top! ”
The dense noise, but Xin Xi felt very warm.
Walking in, there was a pile of burlap bags pushed high in front of him, each of which was bulging.
Liu San'er, who was commanding on the side, glanced back, and saw that it was Xin Xi at a glance, and immediately took two steps forward quickly, and arched his hand: "I've seen Eleven Lang!" ”
This sound came out, as if the dominoes had toppled the first one, and the rest were all pushed down.
Everyone was in a row, looked back at Xin Xi, their eyes lit up, they quickly put down the work in their hands, and saluted respectfully: "I've seen Eleven Lang!" ”
Xin Xi smiled and waved his hand, and said loudly: "Today, Xin thank you for coming to help!" ”
"Don't dare."
"It should."
Xin Xi smiled and turned around: "Xiang'er, go buy three sheep, come back with two jars of wine, today, brothers, don't get drunk and don't return!" ”
The ruffians cheered.
Xiang'er's face was broken, and she replied weakly: "Yes." ”
This is the reason why she wanted to bolt the door in broad daylight, and after knowing that it was Xin Xi, she didn't open the door herself, but asked Li San'er to open the door.
Because, every time this kind of thing happens, Eleven Lang will definitely throw a lot of money outside.
Damn, this fool Li San'er, aren't you too busy to touch the ground? Why are you so obedient to open the door? If you don't open the door, Eleven Lang will go out again, why not waste this lot of silver?
Thinking like this, Xiang'er glared at Li San'er with a resentful face, which made Li San'er inexplicable for a while.
"Thirty-six?" Xin Xi suddenly came back to his senses, only to find that he hadn't seen thirty-six since he entered the door.
You know, if it was usual, Thirty-Six would have appeared behind him long ago.
Xiang'er glanced at Xin Zhen listlessly: "I was deceived by that Sima Yun." ”
Scam?!
Sima Yun?!
Xin Xi suddenly felt as if his heart had been grabbed by something: "Where did they go?" ”
"North Slope."
North Slope?!
Xin Xi was a little puzzled, why did Sima Yun go to the northern slope if he had nothing to do?!
Before he had time to figure it out, Xin Yibian turned around and walked towards the door, saying as he walked: "I'll go to the north slope to have a look, Xiang'er, you go buy sheep and wine first." ”
After explaining, Xin Xi quickly ran out.
The so-called northern slope refers to the area north of Beishan.
According to the records of Kaifeng Prefecture, during the reign of Taizong, Chen Tuan did have a knot on the north slope to cultivate the road, and so far, there is still an antique simple bamboo house there.
Thinking about the problem, Xin Zhen covered his head and ran for a while, not paying attention to what was in front of him.
Running and running, a familiar voice suddenly came from in front of him:
"Eleven Lang?!" Sima Yun's face was full of surprise, but he was curious: "Running so fast, where are you going?" ”
