Chapter 211: Bandits
"Yes, this is Master Lu's closed work, and after this one was completed, his old man never used a knife again."
This person Manqing has also heard that he is the best jewelry craftsman in Da'an, and the things he makes are all high-quality products, but he didn't expect to see them here.
"I want this, wrap it up for me." She was about to ask the price when she was interrupted by a voice.
Man Qing didn't reply, frowned and said:
"How much? I want it. "The second shopkeeper is very embarrassed, although he gave it to the young lady first, but he can't afford to offend the one who speaks, that is the biggest official in Yaocheng,
"You've helped so much, it's always okay to give a small gift, it's too angry to refuse." The person who was picked up said with a hippie smile, and Ah Shuang also pursed his lips and snickered.
"This isn't cheap, don't hurt in the future." Since someone gives out the silver, she just takes it, not to mention anything else, just the contribution to the boat is not small, and it is okay to collect some dividends in advance, anyway, when his class teacher returns to the court, the emperor will not be less.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he quickly reported the number, and quickly wrapped the box, Manqing was stunned when she heard it, this thing cost 20,000 silver, and all the money she bought just now added up, which is a fraction.
"You're looking for a big buck, how can you get such a high price?" Man Qing put on a face.
"Wronged, miss, how dare we deceive Lord Situ!" In addition to fear, there is also respect for him.
Situ directly gave the silver ticket, people really didn't ask for much, not to mention the preciousness of the materials, Master Lu's works alone were worth this price.
They went shopping for a few days, and the things were almost bought, Manqing planned to go home, Situ Xiu wanted her to wait a little longer, but after thinking about it, the emperor had not replied to the letter until now, and his class teacher had not yet been seen, so it was not appropriate to let her wait all the time.
"You must be careful on the road, two days ago, I heard that there were bandits near Xingcheng, and some merchants were robbed."
"Bandits? Is it large-scale? This question is a little excited, although she has no duty to suppress bandits, but if she grabs their heads, it will definitely not be her who is unlucky?
"There is not much news from me, but I heard that the gang is very cruel and killed." Situ Xiu was a little worried, although the little girl's martial arts were good, she had no experience in dealing with bandits.
"We're just a small car, I guess the thieves can't look down on it, if they really dare to come, it can be regarded as blind to their dog's eyes." What is there to fear from the rabble?
She put all the things back into the ring, and the four of them walked back easily as when they came, Manqing also stretched out her hand and waved at the people who saw them off, and the people who gave them off generally stopped at the Ten Mile Pavilion, but they actually sent more than fifty miles, how reluctant is this?
"What's wrong with your brother? The big man also becomes the mother-in-law and the mother-in-law. Ma Yuan sat outside, and wanted to say in his heart, his mother-in-law was the one who was in charge, and his brother was also helpless, and he couldn't go back by himself.
"Girl, I think Master Situ doesn't want to go back, maybe he's homesick too, but it's a pity that he's not free and can't go back with us." Ah Shuang smiled very happily, she was the happiest on this trip, and she was happy to follow her master.
Mo Xiang pursed her lips and didn't speak, she watched from the side, that Lord Situ seemed to be unusual to the girl, and the things he gave were becoming more and more valuable, although he was the grandson of the king, and he was also a good match with the young lady, but there was no decision from the elders, and the young lady couldn't give him a trick.
She had the heart to remind her, looking at Manqing's small body, she really couldn't speak, the girl was only thirteen years old, and there were still two years before Ji Lu, so it was too early to say this.
Four people and four moods, the topic quickly turned to the bandits.
"When we were fighting guerrillas outside Xingcheng, didn't we hear of bandits? Are they hiding? Ah Shuang was contemptuous, when King Shun rebelled, they could wander around that area for a long time.
"Needless to say, these people are bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, and they can't afford to provoke that force at the beginning, so they can only hide."
"Amitabha, may we pass safely." Mo Xiang remembered the Buddha,
"Sister Moxiang, it's true that the Buddha didn't come with me, if those strong people dare to come, this girl will kill him and leave no piece of armor." Ah Shuang's eyes widened, and Man Qing laughed when she saw it.
"Self-confidence is good, blind self-confidence is not good, you have to remember, there are people outside the sky, there are people outside the world, and you must not despise the opponent you have never seen."
Xingcheng is backed by Qingshan Ridge, she has also seen it from afar, the altitude of the mountain is very high, there is snow on it all the year round, it looks like wearing a white hat, I heard that there are a lot of ravines inside, if you hide in it, you basically can't find it, so the thieves can have no fear, once they encounter hard stubble, just retreat directly.
After listening to Manqing's lesson, Ah Shuang stuck out her tongue and smiled playfully, Ah Yuan also said outside,
"If there are really thieves coming, you protect the girl and Sister Moxiang, and I will deal with those people."
"If you protect Mo Xiang, I don't need it, and ah, poor Kou Mo chases, if you need to chase, the four of us can't be separated." The more the four of them talked, the more lively they became, and the thieves were sorry for their plans if they didn't come.
"Girl, there's a tea house in front, hey, when I went, there didn't seem to be anything here, is it new?"
Man Qing opened the sedan curtain, only to see a disguise floating in the distance, really, the car has been gone for a long time, since there is a place to rest, then come down and let the horse rest.
"Ah Zhi, hurry, hurry, there is a guest officer coming, please come and sit inside," a man greeted loudly, Man Qing glanced at him, even if there were diners, this was too excited, right?
The thin boy named Ah Zhi came to lead the horse, Ah Yuan glanced at his hand and pulled the reins of the horse,
"I'll feed the horses myself, so I don't have to bother you." Man Qing also glanced at Ah Zhi's hand and sat directly on the table outside.
"Give us a pot of good tea, don't want anything else," Mo Xiang looked at the soil on the table, and hurriedly took out a rag,
"Hey, this table has just been wiped, hehe, there is too much ash on the avenue, we have soup noodles, but they are fragrant, don't you want a bowl from the guest officer?"
Ah Zhi smiled and promoted his noodle soup,
"I ate dry food just now, I want a pot of hot tea to moisten my throat, how long will it take to get to Xingcheng?" Manqing asked Na Zhi, she was very familiar with this road, so she just asked casually.
"It's still far from Xingcheng, and it won't be possible to get there in the dark, if you don't eat, you'll be hungry on the way," Ah Shuang frowned, but after glancing at the girl, she didn't speak, and Mo Xiang was anxious when she heard it.
"Why don't you eat some noodles, eat in the car, it's bumpy, and then gnaw on it, how can the girl stand it?"
Mo Xiang was really anxious, she didn't know that it would not take an hour to get to Xingcheng here, Manqing saw that there was joy in Ah Zhi's eyes, so she said hello and asked them to come over.
When the noodles and tea came up, Ah Yuan also fed the horses, and as soon as he came over, he frowned, only to see Man Qing shook his head almost invisibly, so he didn't speak and sat down.
