Chapter 557: Slip away
The next day, the lotus leaf building was officially opened.
The eldest princess and Liu Shuyan also came to the opening site, the lotus leaf building was originally built very magnificently, plus everyone in the court and the middle of the court knew that this restaurant was opened by the Ministry of Rites and the lord of Pingyang County, and there were more people who came to cheer.
Liu Shuyan was receiving guests outside, and He Jingjing was idle.
Anyway, these people don't know each other, and Liu Shuyan also happens to use the Lotus Leaf Building to stabilize his position.
When everyone knows that they are in the same group as Liu Shuyan, then these connections that Liu Shuyan has made will also become their own invisibly.
He Jingjing's small abacus jingled, but she didn't expect that before the idle time passed, the kitchen had already exploded.
"Principal! There are not enough people! The people who came today are unexpected, and the materials are a little insufficient!"
He Jingjing sighed, but she prepared food according to the lotus leaf building of Linzhou Mansion that was three times the scale, but she didn't expect it to be enough.
In the past, He Jingjing must have gone out to buy groceries a long time ago.
But today, thinking that he would run away soon, He Jingjing didn't have so much enthusiasm for these things.
"You let Ye Ming deal with it, these things are left to him. If it's really not enough, I will accuse the guest officers, and ask them to come back tomorrow when today's sales are finished. ”
After the arrangement, He Jingjing pulled He Xiaoxiao and the eldest princess back to the princess's mansion.
originally thought that he would be very happy to open, but after the lotus leaf building in Shangjing really opened, He Jingjing felt that he was not as happy as he expected.
Two days later, after the lotus leaf building in Shangjing was completely on the right track, He Jingjing left a letter at the beginning of the day, took He Xiaoxiao and some simple salutes, and went on the road.
"Eldest sister, where are we going to gather?" He Xiaoxiao hadn't woken up at the moment, and asked He Jingjing sleepily.
The two of them walked through the street, and even the small vendors who bought breakfast had not yet come out of their stalls.
"It's almost there, it's not far away. He Jingjing patted He Xiaoxiao's head and said.
For convenience, both wore men's clothes. When you go out, you're afraid of being remembered.
He Jingjing also deliberately made a look for herself and He Xiaoxiao, making the two look very mediocre.
"Hurry up, I'll be waiting for you!"
"I'm sorry, I'm getting up late!"
By the time He Jingjing and He Xiaoxiao arrived, the carriage was already waiting at the city gate. He Jingjing and He Xiaoxiao were the last to arrive in the caravan, in order not to arouse everyone's disgust, He Jingjing couldn't stop apologizing to everyone.
He Xiaoxiao saw everything in her eyes and felt very guilty.
If she hadn't overslept herself, the eldest sister wouldn't have been late, and she wouldn't have to apologize to these people.
"Girl, what are you thinking!" He Jingjing looked back and saw He Xiaoxiao's depressed expression, knocked on He Xiaoxiao's head and said.
"Sister, I'm sorry. ”
There was a softness in her heart, and He Jingjing held He Xiaoxiao in her arms. The two got into the carriage one after another and huddled together with their companions.
Because of the limited means of transportation, the caravan consisted of three carriages, one of which was used by the leader of the caravan and his family, and the remaining two were large carriages with fourteen seats.
Looking at a group of strange men around them, He Jingjing and He Xiaoxiao's two girls were inevitably stunned.
Thinking of what she had encountered in the alley before, He Jingjing suddenly felt that her decision to bring He Xiaoxiao out was a bit too hasty.
It's so common for a powerless woman to encounter something on the road.
Along the way, He Xiaoxiao and He Jingjing didn't dare to sleep at the same time, and when one fell asleep, the other person must pretend to sleep and sentry.
"Sister, I see that you have fine skin and tender meat, don't you look like our croppers?
When the group was eating dry food on the road, an old lady suddenly said to He Jingjing.
Surprised in her heart, but not revealing it on her face, He Jingjing smiled and said to the eldest mother: "Auntie, don't hide it, our two sisters have a very hard life. The house was robbed by the enemy, and my father and mother had no choice but to send the two of us out and escape far away. ”
He Jingjing has a good eloquence, plus these people are very simple, He Xiaoxiao assisted with tears, and everyone already believed in He Jingjing's story after a meal.
"I can't see that you two still have such an experience. Don't worry, my king stone will definitely protect you along the way!"
A strong man in the same carriage patted his chest and assured He Jingjing.
"In this way, thank you so much!"
He Jingjing pulled He Xiaoxiao and saluted Wang Shishi.
No one has ever called himself, "Wang Gongzi, Wang Shishi felt that this Wang Gongzi shouted that he was really relaxed." ”
"The road ahead is not easy to walk, we have to hunt or something, I don't know which of you can cook?"
A few people got out of another carriage and asked.
"Big brother, I can cook. He Jingjing's eyes rolled, if she wants to protect herself, it is definitely not enough to sell miserably, she must make the other party realize the value of her existence.
"Big brother, I will too!" He Xiaoxiao also raised his hand and said in the same way as He Jingjing.
"What's your name?"
"My name is He Dajing, and her name is He Cuihua. He Xiaoxiao was stunned for an instant, the eldest sister got this name for herself, it is really nice and easy to remember!
"Alright, I got it. I'll call you later in the evening!"
Most of this caravan is strong men, only two women, He Jingjing and He Xiaoxiao, plus an old woman.
Although the family members of the leader are also women, they are used to serve, not to serve these strong men. The only laborers who can cook are He Jingjing, He Xiaoxiao and the old woman in an instant.
"Grandma, why did you come out with you?" He Jingjing took a bite of the steamed bun and asked curiously.
"It's not my uncompetitive son, I owe a bunch of gambling debts to others a few years ago, and I sold everything in the family to pay off some of it. The rest will depend on this shipment. ”
He Jingjing didn't expect that this old woman would have to come out to sell goods by herself when she was a lot older, and she was suddenly silent.
"Grandma, it's not me who said, what do you care about your son, he has already got married, let his mother-in-law take care of him!" A man next to him couldn't listen to it, as if he knew about the affairs of this grandma's family, and said with hatred of iron.
"What kind of business is this? It's my son, I can't let him really be taken away by those loan sharks, right?"
He Jingjing didn't want to listen to the latter words anymore, and it probably sounded like these trivial chicken feathers.
