Chapter 223: Can't Hide
At this time, near Jinshui City.
Ling Xiu'er's body has gradually recovered, and the Xu couple have helped take care of them during this period of time, and she is very grateful to these two people.
If it weren't for these two people, maybe they would be gone.
Today's atmosphere is not the same as usual, Xu Shi has been smiling on his face from morning to now, and he is preparing in a hurry.
Feeling Ling Xiu'er's puzzled eyes, Xu Shi was a little embarrassed, "Oops...... Yesterday came the news that the rebels had been suppressed, and that Jinshui City was safe at this time. ”
Since the war broke out, the family has not descended from the mountains, and there is not much food left in the house.
"I'm going to go into the city today to add some rice and noodles to prevent anything from happening." The Xu family had already cleaned up, and just wanted to tell Ling Xiu'er to let her feel at home with peace of mind.
"I'm going too." Ling Xiu'er raised her head, holding the embroidery that had been completed in the past few days in her hand, "Just sell these things to others and buy them for some money." ”
When she came here, she was not only seriously injured, but also penniless, and she was already embarrassed that the Xu couple provided food and clothing.
Xu glanced at the handkerchief in Ling Xiu'er's hand and agreed, "Okay, you and I will enter the city together." ”
When I went out, I took the things hanging on the wall, and it was the animal skin that Xu Dali had beaten down during this period of time, and I took this opportunity to sell it quickly.
The two of them came to the rice shop in the first step.
"Hey, are these things for sale too?" The owner of the rice shop pointed to the things in Ling Xiu'er's hand, which looked very delicate, and immediately aroused his interest.
If it were normal, he would definitely not even look at it, let alone want to buy it.
Ling Xiu'er was stunned for a moment, looking at the rice shop owner's eyes full of doubts, "It's ready to be sold, why doesn't the boss have any shops nearby that accept the handkerchief?" ”
In her impression, this kind of rice shop does not accept embroidery.
"Can the girl show the old man?" The owner of the rice shop stared at the handkerchief not far away, he had never seen such a delicate handkerchief.
Ling Xiu'er handed it over generously, and at this time Xu was still looking down at the rice.
"I wonder what price the girl is going to sell?" As soon as my fingers touched the handkerchief, I could feel that the material was very smooth, and the patterns on it were lifelike.
"I don't know much about this...... Ling Xiu'er was a little hesitant, there are not many opportunities to sell this kind of thing, they used to be sold with clothes, and now they don't have the time to make clothes.
Xu Shi glanced up, "Boss, is this what you want to buy?" The tone was a little surprised, exactly the same as Ling Xiu'er's expression.
The owner of the rice shop smiled and nodded, "Just sell it to me at the most expensive price." ”
In the blink of an eye, several handkerchiefs were successfully sold.
As soon as the two of them were happy, they bought a lot of rice in the rice shop, and were about to leave, when a familiar voice sounded in their ears.
At first, Ling Xiu'er thought that she was hallucinating, but after a while, two people appeared in her sight on horseback, and in a hurry, they pulled Xu Shi to hide in the rice shop.
Ling Xiu'er was a little embarrassed, "I suddenly want to buy a little glutinous rice." ”
Xu glanced outside the door, and happened to see two people on horseback, looked away and pretended not to know anything, and followed Ling Xiu'er to look down at glutinous rice.
There were two people riding by outside the door, it was Zhang Ze and Zhao Ping, one after the other, Zhang Ze could be heard calling the princess tirelessly, and the people in front didn't pay attention to it at all.
Zhang Ze sighed, "Princess......"
Zhao Ping ignored it and walked in front on a horse.
"Princess......" one after another, passing by the noisy environment, Zhang Ze would raise her voice slightly, so that she couldn't ignore it if she wanted to.
"Get out of here, don't follow me!" Zhao Ping looked at Zhang Ze coldly, and her tone was very cold.
The two men rode horses, attracting the attention of many people on the street, and the people passing by couldn't help but look up for a look or two.
"You just go back with me, it's too dangerous outside," Zhang Zewen said gently, he had been persuading him for several days on this matter, but he still didn't succeed.
"I won't go back, I've said it many times, and if I don't investigate it clearly for a day, I won't go back with you!"
Zhao Ping roared angrily, but found that it was useless, so he could only ride away on horseback.
The two of them passed by the rice shop and did not find Ling Xiu'er inside.
The owner of the rice shop couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't understand why these two people were back. "Are these two trying to buy something?"
Ling Xiu'er looked embarrassed and shook her head, "If you don't buy it, just take a look." ”
The two of them left from the rice shop, and the Xu family behind them didn't ask anything, and took Ling Xiu'er to the shop on the other side.
"You wait here, I'll go in and sell the hides," at their feet were the rice they had just bought, because the shop was too small, and it was too crowded for two people to walk in.
Ling Xiu'er hadn't recovered from what had just happened, she nodded stunned, and now she didn't move outside the store.
I can still hear the enthusiastic voice of the boss, it seems that Xu is already an old customer here, the transaction is very fast, and after a while, Xu came out with the silver.
Before the two of them had time to move, two people were already approaching in front of them, and it was too late to hide at this time.
"Spirit Girl?" Zhang Ze was a little excited, his eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe that what he saw was real. "Miss Ling, is that you?"
Zhao Ping, who was walking in front of her, saw it for the first time, looking at Ling Xiu'er's expression with some disdain, there were still a lot of opportunities for the two of them to meet some time ago.
And every time it was unhappy, she still couldn't guess what this woman wanted to do.
Ling Xiu'er's first reaction was to glance at Xu Shi next to her, and found that the other party looked calm, as if she was not interested in this matter at all.
"It's me." The corners of Ling Xiu'er's mouth stiffened, and she said hello hard, but she didn't expect that she would not be able to hide in the end.
"I didn't expect to see Miss Ling here, do you want to go back with us?" Zhang Ze asked, the last time the two met was in the capital.
Ling Xiu'er nodded in agreement, it just so happened that she had many doubts in her heart that could not be answered, and she also wanted to meet Cao Yu as soon as possible.
"Thank you very much for taking care of you during this time, otherwise there would be no ...... today" Ling Xiu'er turned to the side and looked at Xu with a sincere look in her eyes.
Xu waved his hand, "You don't have to thank you for your efforts." ”
She is also a cheerful person, and after finishing speaking, she hurriedly left with her things.
On the way back, Zhao Ping still didn't want to see Ling Xiu'er, this hostility was too obvious, and Zhang Ze could feel it beside him.
moved his mouth, wanting to inquire about the situation, but was glanced at by Zhao Ping, and quickly closed his mouth.
The three of them hurriedly came to Zhao Zheng.
