Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Two Heavens of Ice and Fire
Lan was rarely rejected, and she panicked all of a sudden. When she looked at it, she found that something was wrong with Zhang Ruoqiao, why was she so embarrassed? You can't be bullied outside, right?
"Ruoqiao, you told your mother, were you bullied outside?"
Lan's softened tone made the overlapping grievances in Zhang Ruoqiao's heart collapse completely, and all of them poured out.
"Mother!"
Zhang Ruoqiao howled and cried, and the whole person was buried in Lan's arms.
After she recovered, the Lan clan knew that she might have met Zhang Ruoyu in the city today.
Thinking of Zhang Ruoyu, Lan's entire face became distorted, and she patted Zhang Ruoqiao's back: "Good ha, as long as she is still in Shangyang County, we don't have to worry about not finding her!" ”
"If she is really rich now, the money is also our Zhang family, how can she be happy alone?"
This hasn't found Zhang Ruoqiao yet, and the Lan clan has already thought about fighting the autumn wind.
However, the top priority now is to find Zhang Ruoyu's whereabouts and evidence that she has developed, so that she can come to the door to fight the autumn wind openly.
"Qiao'er, you heard from my mother, you will go to the county town to find out the whereabouts of Zhang Ruoyu in the past few days, and once you find out, you will come back and tell us immediately."
Originally, the Lan family was still blaming Zhang Ruoqiao for not listening to persuasion and always going out, but now that the interests are in the forefront, it is natural to find Zhang Ruoyu first.
"Okay."
Zhang Ruoqiao shrank and leaned into Lan's arms, his eyes were already full of gloom.
Zhang Ruoyu, even if I dig three feet into the ground, I have to find you!
……
Zhang Ruoyu didn't notice that she met Zhang Ruoqiao's room in the rouge shop, and seeing that the day of the wine tasting competition was coming, she had to work harder, and the mint wine hadn't figured it out yet.
"Alas......" Zhang Ruoyu was still thinking about making wine when he was eating, and he put down his chopsticks as soon as he took two bites, which attracted Zhao Ling and Liu Xiu to look over.
Zhang Ruoyu was not ashamed, she supported her chin with one hand, lining her little face inexplicably rounded.
"Eh, you say, what can be mixed with cold objects to ease a bit?"
She asked this thoughtlessly, Liu Xiu frowned, and didn't understand for a while.
"The cold must be mixed with the hot to be gentle, what nonsense you kid is talking about."
However, Zhao Ling understood a little, and he thought of the cold taste of the green root wine that Zhang Ruoyu took out a few days ago, and thought it had something to do with it.
"How about trying osmanthus?"
Zhang Ruoyu's face was sideways, and his eyes were lit up all of a sudden: "Tell me!" ”
"One, now is the season of osmanthus flowers, and it is a surprise to be ahead of everyone."
"Second, osmanthus is warm, just able to neutralize the kind of cold thing you said, supplemented by the fragrance of osmanthus and the cold breath, this is the real ice and fire."
When Zhao Ling said this, he looked at Zhang Ruoyu, who was already illuminated by the inspiration index.
She slapped the table happily and stood up suddenly: "I'll go out to find osmanthus now!" ”
Liu Xiu saw her crazy appearance, and hurriedly dragged her to sit down, picked up a spoon and filled her mouth with a few mouthfuls of rice.
"Mmmmmm Zhang Ruoyu didn't pay attention, and could only shout rice in his mouth, and he couldn't speak clearly.
"Now in this season, osmanthus is indeed there, but if you look at the osmanthus trees on the road, it is not so easy to find osmanthus."
Liu Xiu sighed helplessly.
Although she does not participate in Zhang Ruoyu's brewing business on weekdays, she has also moved around in the county these days, and she is more or less better than Zhang Ruoyu knows about the people's livelihood.
It may be a good time for osmanthus in half a month, but the osmanthus that can grow at the moment is at most some flower bones, where can it really be used in medicine and wine.
Thinking of this, Liu Xiu actually glared at Zhao Ling, which made Zhao Ling a little helpless.
Zhang Ruoyu finally swallowed that mouthful of rice, and when he heard Liu Xiu's words, his eyes suddenly turned gray: "This ......"
There can be no osmanthus flowers on the streets in this Shangyang County, but there must be a place where flowers will bloom, and that place is the back garden of the county government.
As for why Zhao Ling is clear?
That was originally the mansion he had prepared for himself, and if it weren't for the thieves plotting behind his back, he wouldn't have to give up the place he was satisfied with.
Zhao Ling restrained his mind for a moment, and his thin lips opened lightly: "I'll do this thing, how many osmanthus flowers do you need?" ”
"The more the merrier!" Zhang Ruoyu not only opened his mouth, but also asked about the time: "How long will it take for you to find it?" ”
"It's noon, and I'll give it to you tomorrow morning."
Zhao Ling calculated the time, where is there a thief who goes to someone's house to pick flowers during the day, and he can only wait until the evening to do things.
As for the quantity?
If he remembers correctly, he transplanted two old osmanthus trees that had been planted there for decades, and since he wanted to steal them, he should steal them cleanly.
......
It was night, the night was silent, and even the big yellow dog who was guarding the door had fallen asleep.
In the backyard of the county governor's mansion, two black-clothed men in night clothes floated in.
The two of them landed under the two osmanthus trees that were already full of osmanthus flowers, and they glanced at each other, and they all felt the encouraging look in each other's eyes.
In his left hand, he took out a bag of marijuana that could fit two adults, and with his right hand, he pulled out a scythe from behind his back.
There was no need for an order, and with a toe step, the man sat lightly on the trunk of the tree, and as soon as the sickle fell, the osmanthus stepped into the sack.
The two worked silently, and within half an hour, the osmanthus flowers full of trees had been picked cleanly, leaving only bare branches, and the sacks of the two were already full.
"Let's go, go back."
The two glanced around vigilantly, and after making sure that no one had found it, one of them carried a sack of osmanthus and ran in the direction of Zhangjia Distillery.
Although they didn't say anything on the surface, the two of them were clearly complaining in their hearts: Zhao Ling is really the first person who can use the secret guard as a flower picker.
Early the next morning, the backyard of the prefectural order.
"Check! Gotta find it out for me! Who is so bold to come to the county mansion to pick flowers! ”
The newly appointed young county magistrate looked at the osmanthus petals and bare branches all over the ground, and his anger had already rushed to the sky.
A man in black next to him dismissed the people around him, and then approached the county magistrate who was standing next to him, and said in his ear:
"It is said that these two osmanthus trees were specially arranged to be planted by the same person before, and we searched the mountains many times, but we couldn't find his person."
"But judging by the current situation, is he demonstrating to you? To put it bluntly, you are also an impostor latecomer, and he is not afraid. ”
Speaking of the word impostor, the young county master's face darkened a lot.
He gritted his teeth and said, "So what? ”
"Isn't it just that if this incident hasn't happened, the fool will really pick a tree of osmanthus and go back, and he is demonstrating to you? If you fall for it, you're really losing. ”
The tone of the man's voice carried the coldness wafting from the mountain stream, and listening to it made people feel cold, and goosebumps rose.
"Okay, I can't afford to mess with him, but I can always handle these two trees, right?"
"Well, that's nature."
The young county magistrate raised his sleeves and waved his hand, summoned the servants who were waiting outside, and commanded softly:
"Don't let the news here spread for half a minute today, and find someone to dig up these two trees and send them to the backyard to be burned as firewood!"
The servant trembled: "Yes." ”
On the same day, the county government came out with the news, it is said that the osmanthus tree in the backyard of the county lord did not know what was wrong, but it provoked the county lord, and the decades-old osmanthus tree was directly cut into firewood, which was regrettable when he heard it.
And Zhao Ling, the initiator of the matter, just hooked the corners of his mouth when he heard this, and smiled coldly, without a smile in his narrow peach blossom eyes: "It's just a clown who jumps off the beam." ”
The kind of person who leads the order to take the identity of others is just an inconspicuous worm in the final analysis, and he can't get into his own eyes at all.
As for the osmanthus tree...... It's a pity, but as long as it works.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ling's eyes appeared in front of Zhang Ruoyu's surprise when he opened the door in the morning and saw two sacks of osmanthus.
It's just that the beauty only lasted for a while, because as soon as the materials arrived, Zhang Ruoyu didn't ask about the origin of the osmanthus, and hurriedly thanked Zhao Ling, she carried a sack of osmanthus and went straight to the brewing room.
The sound of the door locking sounded, and Zhao Ling, who was in a daze, woke up from Zhang Ruoyu's agility and beauty just now.
When he thought about it at the moment, he also felt that his recent cultivation was insufficient, and in the face of Zhang Ruoyu's appearance as a young man, he would be stunned, but he was really not enough.
As a result, those who are lucky enough to enter Zhangjia Liquor to buy Qinggen wine can see a strange scene.
Zhao Er, who usually had a cold face but subconsciously controlled the aura around him, was in charge today, as if he was enchanted, his aura was full of aura, holding a long sword in his hand, and he waved out a groundbreaking, ice-like aura that made others dare not approach.
Only those who are bold dare to call Zhao Ling to buy wine.
Therefore, on that day, the Qinggen wine that had been prepared was sold out late at noon, Zhao Ling got out of the state of martial arts, looked at the silver two on the table, and was a little depressed for a while: "Could it be that Qinggen wine is not attractive?" ”
He shook his head, unable to figure it out.
In the evening, when Liu Xiu and Zhao Ling were waiting for Zhang Ruoyu to eat as usual, they heard the door being pushed open, and the footsteps of the woman running sounded not far away, and Zhang Ruoyu's excited shouts followed.
"Ahhhh
Before the two of them stood up, Zhang Ruoyu rushed over like a little whirlwind, holding a jar of wine and wine, and directly poured wine for the two of them.
"Hurry, hurry! Try! ”
Zhang Ruoyu stared at the two of them with a pair of big moist eyes like puppies, and Liu Xiu and Zhao Ling drank like gods.
This wine is wonderful!
