Volume 1: The New World of Little Dirt Girls 35.The smirking boy in the black shop

After a day and a night of traveling, they finally reached the more prosperous town on the side of the big city.

There is no way, after this sudden bump, the delicate and expensive Miss Sheqing vomited and diarrhea, and basically reached the limit.

If you continue to hurry, I am afraid that my life will be explained on the road. The ancient road conditions are really poor, out of the bluestone road of the main city, the rest is basically dusty mud. If the weather is sunny a few days before the trip, it is okay, at most, you will endure the wind and dust all the way, and the whole person will be disgraced. How else is there such a thing as catching the wind and washing the dust?

If you're unlucky, it's raining or you're in a hurry after the rain, you're sorry. It was not uncommon for horse-drawn carriages to sink into muddy puddles, and to get drenched in the rain.

They were okay along the way, except for being frightened, and there was nothing about the displacement of internal organs.

She Qing's temperament is quite tenacious, and she is holding on to the sparse little tree on the side of the road, and her face is pale, and she still does not open her mouth to beg Mei Yi to slow down. I don't know if it was originally like this, or if it has undergone major changes to become what it is today.

Whatever the reason, Mei Yi was a little impressed with her in her heart. This ruthless temperament really adds another layer of aura to her beauty.

The blackened beauty is even more emotional!

Mei Yi thought about her employer's body, after all, there is still a long way to go, if the body is too seriously damaged at this time, she can't afford to bring a sick seedling on the road in the future!

Anyway, it's already some distance away, and the people of the City Lord's Mansion shouldn't be able to find their whereabouts for a while, so they don't need to push too hard.

"We'll rest here, change our horses, and continue our journey in the afternoon." Mei Yi lifted the cyan curtain and said to the sick and weak man who was nested in layers of quilts.

"I'm fine, you can keep walking, you don't have to worry about me." The cheeked man's face was weak, and he still couldn't avoid the feeling of bumps when lying on several layers of thick cushions.

But he was very persistent, as if there was a dog chasing after him.

"You're not tired, the horses are tired. You should be kind and give Brother Ma a way out! Mei Yi patted the big white horse's buttocks and smoothed the shiny tail.

Well, the quality is good, and it's better to go out and change it, it's better than dying on the road.

She is a kind girl, and she can't see small animals being abused, especially Brother Ma's big black and shiny eyes and thick and long eyelashes, this is really a big cute thing!

If it weren't for the fact that they are now fleeing with their lives, they really want to go all the way to the end of the world with cute beauties, see all the famous mountains and rivers, and eat all the eight major cuisines of the Manchu and Han Dynasty, this life will be in vain!

With money on his body, Mei Yi, a guy who is looking forward to saving up money and quickly retirement, can't take a dangerous person to live in the best inn in town. First, it costs money, and she is reluctant. The second is that it is too eye-catching, the so-called wealth is not exposed, and it is safer to go out or be poor.

Therefore, she found the most ordinary inn, in which the shopkeepers were listlessly flying flies, and the guests who came in horse-drawn carriages were not very enthusiastic.

"Yo, is the guest officer playing a tip or staying in the hotel?" The shopkeeper took the reins of the horse in Mei Yi's hand, and lazily dragged the tired and choked brother to the backyard. "Guest officer, you sit down first, there are few people in the store, come and greet the two of you in a while."

"Okay, let's stop here for a meal and treat two dishes as soon as possible."

"Okay."

The woman supported the thin bearded man and walked into the store step by step.

Sure enough, it is as shabby as the outside, and the inside is the same.

The bearded man's face had an expression of disbelief that pleased Mei Yi.

"What? I've never seen a small shop like this, and we can change it if we can't get used to it. ”

"No need, it's important to hurry." The bearded man, that is, the eldest lady of the City Lord's Mansion, Sheqing, smiled reluctantly, but he still stepped in with his face.

"Hey, it's actually okay, it's just a little more dusty, the tables, chairs and benches are a little older, and there are fewer people, but it's not all a disadvantage, isn't it safer for us?" Mei Yi was clever and resolutely refused to admit that she was stingy.

"Huh."

The dust can be blown up with your eyes closed, the furniture is missing arms and legs, and there is no one left the store.

It's safe enough!

She Qing is also uncomfortable, and she doesn't have the energy to quarrel with this philistine woman, hmph, she has it all in mind. In the future, when she has enough spirits, one stroke at a time, let's count slowly!

Out of sight is clean, Mei Yi can stand the dirty and messy environment, and the big beauty can't bear it, and would rather stand against the wall than sit on a dirty stool.

There was no way, Mei Yi put her cloak on it, and then helped the weak man to sit down.

"Guest officer, the shop only has steamed buns and cabbage and radish, what do you want to eat?" The shopkeeper took a half-dry rag and wiped the relatively complete table in front of them, looking like he was waiting for the dispatch.

The corners of Mei Yi's mouth twitched, that's it? Does she have a choice?

Glancing at Sheqing, who had no appetite, the woman sighed, she had known to find a slightly better store, who knew that this store was so poor, and it hadn't closed yet, which was not scientific.

It's just that it seems that the beard that has softened into a puddle of mud will never be able to stand up again at this time. Mei Yi swallowed her saliva with difficulty, and said very helplessly: "Then a fried cabbage, a cold radish and a few steamed buns, come up quickly." ”

"Okay, guest officer, wait a minute." The shopkeeper responded very naturally and ran to the back kitchen, the green cloth partition between the front hall and the back kitchen was half rotten, and there was nothing to separate.

The shopkeeper just now had already put on an old apron and picked up a big iron pot with water to rinse. Noticing Mei Yi's gaze, he bared his big white teeth and gave her a polite smirk.

Mei Yi was speechless, didn't she just have intermittent attacks of sudden searching, as for letting her crash into such a strange shop, such a strange shopkeeper, or a cook?

She Qing slowed down for a while, and finally woke up from the state of clouds and mountains and mist, and her internal organs turned over the river and the sea.

"Vomit," the bearded man covered his mouth, looking almost disgusted. The person next to him carefully patted him on the back, and soaked the teacup several times with the boiled water he had just been delivered, before handing him the cup to rinse his mouth.

"Look at you, don't be too reckless, now it's like this, don't you still feel uncomfortable."

"What is this, I'm not afraid of death, and I can't bear this little discomfort." The bearded man still had a rough voice, and he looked like he could fight another three hundred battles.

"Have you ever heard a saying, it's easy to die, but it's hard to live. If you leave the root of the disease, you will live with illness in the future, I would rather let you disappear silently if you were not at the beginning, at least you will no longer have to suffer from the diseases of the world. ”

"I know you're doing it for my good, but it's not safe here. Unless I leave here, I'm always worried that I'll be arrested the next moment, I'm really okay, freedom is at my fingertips, and I will never give up this opportunity. ”

"Okay, it's actually a desperate Sanniang. If you rest again, we will have dinner and go to the horse market to change a good horse, the foot is fast, and we will soon be able to walk to the road to the Central Plains. ”

"Hmm."

Saying that, the shopkeeper came out with a tray, looking at the hue, the taste should be good, there is the fragrance of lard, the vegetable leaves are very crisp, and the fire head is just right. Cold salad radish shredded red oil balsamic vinegar, sprinkled with minced garlic on top, pick up a mouthful and put it in your mouth to chew, crispy with a little sweet aftertaste, very fresh, seasoning is also good.

Mei Yi put down the chopsticks and glanced at the shopkeeper who was squatting at the door of the kitchen to fight flies, people can't look good, although the dishes are simple, but with his skills, it is said that this small shop is not like a guest, at least it is okay to meet food and clothing, so that there is not even a ghost except for them.

There are quirks!

Mei Yi secretly hung her heart, the chopsticks didn't stop, and she Qing saw that she was eating sweetly, and tried to eat the shredded radish to appetize.

At this time, she didn't dislike this dirty dining environment, and picked up the chopsticks that Mei Yi had scalded for her to pick up the vegetables.

"Bang," the woman hit the sick man's hand with chopsticks, and the bamboo chopsticks that the man was holding also fell to the ground.

"What are you doing?" The man's tone was not good, and he looked at the two dusty chopsticks on the ground, and his voice was still rough.

"This is the money I spent, didn't you say you wouldn't eat it? Then go hungry and save a bite of stomach comfort. ”

"You..."

After the meal, Mei Yi stroked her naturally protruding little belly, hehe, there was an illusion of being pregnant in October.

It's a pity that it's full of all kinds of delicious food scraps, and the simple ingredients just now barely taste acceptable.

"What else do you need, the horse has already been fed to you, you see..."

"How much?" Mei Yi is very refreshing, just two dishes, she is not going to eat the overlord meal.

"Oh, let me do the math. Guest officer, listen to me, from the beginning of the carriage, my labor cost is one or two gold per step..."The shopkeeper didn't know where to take out a delicate palm-sized gold and jade abacus, and the jade beads crackled, which was very good.

But when these words reached Mei Yi's ears, it was undoubtedly like a stormy wave, so the words of the shopkeeper were ruthlessly cut off.

"Wait, I didn't hear clearly, what are you talking about?" The woman's brows furrowed, and her eyes were full of disbelief as she stared at the shopkeeper.

What's the matter, the pit people pit her head, she looks like she can't be bullied? Hmph, today, let alone a tael of gold, she won't pay for an extra copper. Let's see who's beating whom!

The shopkeeper put away his emotionless smirk, and flicked his fingers to put the abacus beads back into place. "The guest officer didn't hear clearly, then I'll repeat, from the beginning, the service fee of this store is one or two gold per step, and so far, I have walked a total of one hundred and ninety-two steps, rounded up to two hundred taels. One hundred taels for leading the horse, one hundred taels for wiping the table, one hundred taels for the dishes, half a cabbage, half a catty of white noodles, a total of five hundred taels of seasonings, three hundred taels for a pot of boiling water, and the horse's forage is not more than one hundred taels, even if it is one hundred taels, do you see whether you settle in cash or with a silver ticket? ”

"I... I'm your uncle! Mei Yi stood up, she had seen something black, but she had never seen anything so dark. This is the brain into the water, I can actually open this mouth, and my face is really not ordinarily thick.

She Qing, who was sitting, was in a daze, and when she heard Mei Yi scolding, she subconsciously opened her eyes to check the situation.

I saw this squirming woman, who was full of evil fun on weekdays, was fully armed, and confronted the smiling boy shopkeeper who held a golden and jade abacus across the table with the posture of arguing on the battlefield.

This scene is a bit funny.
