Sixty-three Encounter with a thief

In the blink of an eye, five or six days have passed.

Early this morning, I received a reply from Daddy.

The kind of impatience in my heart, the kind of anxiety and anticipation, makes people tremble.

However, the content of the reply made me confused for a while.

Regarding the part of Aunt Su, Daddy only said that he was good friends with the Su family, and it happened that Aunt Ding Wei, who was in her twenties at the time, was at home, and there was no one under her knees at the age when she should have children, and her mood could be known. I saw that the powder snow I was born when I was a child was cute and very pleasing, and because my biological mother died early, I often visited me out of love.

After reading this paragraph, my eyebrows drooped into two dejected bugs.

Could it really be my wishful thinking and unilateral speculation......

But if that's the case, why did Granny Yuan think of her when she first saw me? What's more, my aunt's subtle movements and eyes towards me, I still feel different!

Could Daddy be lying? You must know that the elders deceive the children, but their faces do not change their colors and their hearts do not beat, they are familiar with the road, and they are handy.

Forget it, I reserve the right to question.

However, when it came to Bai Xiaozhi, Daddy said that no one with this name and surname had ever asked to see me with a note I wrote.

This is weird, is it life or death, where can people disappear out of thin air?

It seems that some things have long been out of my control. Or rather, it never stayed in the palm of my hand at all.

And at the end, my father told me that he had received his will and would come to Kyoto in April to report on his work, and I couldn't help but be excited!

But but, when we met and talked, what should I do if my daughter, who was born out of nowhere, wears a goof?

Just when I wished that someone would come and tell me about the past of Fan Yusu and Fan County Order, there was really such a person.

Thanks to the boring days, Nian Yi'an didn't come to me, and there was an extra little county lord with a fart worm by his side, okay, people are called Zhou Chanmu, and the text will be replaced by Xiaochan (Xiaotang). Hahaha, people are true to their names.

The three of us have really spent enough time in the house, and Qingfeng Street, which looks out from the pavilion, has recently become more lively in the second half of the day. Maybe it's because the weather is getting better and better day by day, and now he has changed into single clothes, and the stall selling five-color drinks outside should naturally be put out.

Now where do you dare to go far when you go out, and you will make trouble, Xiaochan, the spokesperson at this time, has the most right to speak.

I only chose one of the seven or eight stalls in this string of stalls and sat down, looking at all kinds of people on the street under the pergola, and the usual bowl of desserts on the table could always taste different. Anyway, there is a mood called that the cold water outside is always better than at home.

The little boss introduced on the side - five-color drink, Fufang leaves are green, the root of the tree is red, the buttermilk is white, the black plum is Xuan, and Jiang Gui is yellow.

It sounds so fresh, it tastes good, so I try a pot of everything.

I asked for some walnuts, and the little boss went back and forth like this.

Leng Buding opened his mouth: "This girl in a bell flower shirt is the little girl of the county order of Liangsu County?" ”

I was stunned for a moment, glanced at my white background and blue flower clothes, and then raised my head: "The store called me?" ”

A smile bloomed on his thin face: "Yes, the little one is calling you." Fang Cai looked familiar and didn't dare to admit it, but the more he looked at it, the more he recognized it, you still listened to the words of the county order and came to the capital? ”

My mind turned: "Hmm...... yes, how do you know? ”

"Ahem, the year before last when I was a rough servant in your house for a few months, Miss, you only every day, and you don't recognize me."

I motioned for him to sit down: "Since Jingzhong can meet again, it is also fate." I used to be young and ignorant, but now I think it's a good time to get together with friends. ”

"Ahem, it's unusual for everyone to have a different temperament. Do you still study those strange books? ”

"This ......," I didn't know how to answer for a moment.

But he slapped his leg and laughed: "Miss, all the books on your two bookshelves were thrown into the yard and burned by the master, and the little one was also present at the time, but he couldn't disobey his order, and the fire burned for a long time, so many rare books, it's a pity." ”

Xiaochan also felt sorry for "me", and pulled a long voice: "Ha~~, isn't that sister going to feel distressed!" ”

The shopkeeper answered the conversation in time: "That's not it! Miss Pingsuri's half-laden fairy seemed to be a young lady, and she was hoarse and hoarse with the old man at that time, and her voice was hoarse. I heard the maids say, and then I locked the young lady in the room for half a month, and I didn't call to visit relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year! What else did the adults say, who would take care of the young lady when she came to the capital...... In the end, I was forced to agree, and then I was released. ”

Hey? Didn't I be summoned to the capital by Li Can's notice posted by the emperor? Could it be that it collided with Daddy's idea of ordering me to come to Beijing?

Seeing that I didn't make much noise, he suddenly stopped and smiled: "Ah, my fast-talking problem, Miss doesn't want to mention it again!" ”

I hurriedly smiled and said, "No, no, it's a different state of mind to mention this old thing now." ”

Xiaochan pouted: "What kind of strange books, why don't you say the left way?" My sister should like to read scriptures and cultivate immortals, what's wrong with this?! My sister's daddy is so stingy! ”

The shopkeeper smiled: "Hey! This little girl is really sharp-toothed. Think about it from your perspective, which parent in this world doesn't want their sons and daughters to be well-educated and famous. The daughter's family is virtuous and sensible, and she has found a good son-in-law. As for the rest, if you turn over the flowers, it's a bit of a shadow of not doing your job! ”

I was amused, the stall owner, who was twenty years old at most, and talked in a way. I then asked him, "Why doesn't the shopkeeper continue to do it in the house, but think of this small coolie business in Beijing?" ”

He smiled: "It's not just about doing this, there are some different businesses in different seasons, and now there are more and more people living in Qingfeng Street, and the little ones are looking at this place." Haha, although I used to get an errand in the house, I always wanted to come to the capital to visit, and maybe the situation was different! ”

As soon as business was mentioned, the winter break was interested, so he dismantled the dried fruits and said: "I have been looking at this row of stalls in the past few days, and roughly calculated, your daily turnover is about 120 to 150 yuan." A thousand dollars is a tael of silver, and after removing the cost in a month, a maximum of 30% of the profit is retained, and the net income is only a little more than one tael. ”

"However, from next month, and then to the hot summer, add some fruit ice and the like, but turn over a few times."

The shopkeeper's eyes lit up: "This girl has a good business book in her heart, and what she said is not bad at all." ”

The tea is almost drunk, and I'm tired of watching people come and go, it's time to go home, although I still want to ask something, but in front of these two girls, not to mention that if I ask my father what he looks like, it's too much......

So the winter break in charge of the money bag paid, and the three of us were about to leave, when the stall owner called me to the side and whispered to me: "When Miss Burning loved books that day, the little one looked at the preciousness and found a few books in his arms. I was curious about the title of the book, what "Jiaoren Record", what "Blood Deed Tongben", and wanted to collect it, but in the end, I, a rough person, could not understand it, let alone use it! I met Miss today, and I should pay it back. ”

I wondered if these books would tell me more about the secret of "lighting a silver candle", and I rejoiced, "Thank you so much." ”

Then he raised his arm, pointed to the east and said: "Miss, look, in front of Qingfeng Street, turn north, there is a Maori alley, go inside, count it, the ninth courtyard on the left, is a small inn, and it is also my nearest residence." A few days after tomorrow, my cousin will take care of my stall, so you will come to the door of the inn and ask Xiaoer to call me out. ”

As soon as I heard it, it wasn't far away, so I nodded, wrote down his name, and left.

However, when I stepped back into the threshold, I felt that something was wrong for a moment!

The little stall owner looked very much in the hope that I would go to the inn for one of them. The way he served the drink was a little jerky was second. It is not clear whether the books in his mouth were stolen or stolen, but for the third.

I immediately ordered some of the guards to inform them of the place and the hour, and found a pawn peddler's old clothes to put on, and followed me, pretending to be the one who had gone to stay overnight. In short, act on the opportunistic.

The night passed, and the hour was at its beginning.

I flashed my eyes and asked Dong Xiu: "Explain what you did, how is it?" ”

She smiled: "Little adult~, the slave asked the maid in his room, and only said that he often went outside to ride horses recently, and came back sweating profusely." Or run his business. ”

I slapped my palm on the shoulder of Dong Xiu, and looked solemn: "Good sister, while it's still early, go find him for me." Let's just say that I went to the Maori Hutong Inn thief's nest! Just say this one, as for whether you come or not, let him be. ”

"Hey, hey, little adult, you're really fake, don't leave yet, make it clear to the slave!"

"Listen to me, you go!"

Take a look at the dress of several palace guards today, it's not bad, but this appearance is too clean. I told them to smear a handful of dust on the ground, and rubbed their hair and cheeks, and their faces were dusty, and their hair was unkempt, which is what a coolie should be.

Then they walked sparsely back and forth, and they didn't know each other.

The people passing by in this Maori alley don't look like honest and peaceful residents, and they all flow in and out, as if it is not easy to see a woman, and they all want to glance at me.

After counting, I found the inn, the dusty door hung with dirty curtains, and the disguised guards went to the first one.

"Little two! Little two! ”

Although the shop is not big, it is very hard, and the shopkeeper is rinsing his mouth, whining in his mouth: "What are you shouting, what are you shouting, it's so loud early in the morning, someone hasn't gotten up." ”

The palace guard claimed to be staying in the hotel, so he consciously sat down in the lobby and picked up the teapot.

I knocked on the door and said politely: "I'm tired of the little brother, summon Feng Erma, who lives in the hotel." ”

The shopkeeper turned his head, his face was shaking, arrogant and cunning, he looked me up and down, his eyes were full of lard, and his greed and cruelty were overflowing, and he suppressed the evil smile in his heart and said: "Wait a while, the girl lives in a single room in the backyard, I'll look for him!" ”

In fact, at this juncture, I should have turned around and fled.

But he still brought a few people with him, and he was complacent, and he didn't take the foreseen danger to heart......
