Chapter 349: Walking the Water
At night, Pei Ze drank tea and lay down and couldn't sleep.
Turning her head to see the pepper sleeping sweetly with the child in her arms, she couldn't help but the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, and when she left home, she kept saying that she recognized the bed, but when she went out, she didn't see her recognize the bed, and she didn't fall asleep.
Pu'er tea was particularly refreshing, Pei Ze tossed and turned for a while, he was drowsy, and vaguely heard the sound of chaotic footsteps in the yard, as if someone ran in to report the news and hugged it out, vaguely heard someone say that the water was gone, Pei Ze immediately got up and sat up, and then Qiu Hu's voice came in a low voice: "I'll take a look, you take a few people to protect the Hou Ye and Mrs., try not to alarm them." ”
Someone said in a low voice: "Come with me, disperse, don't alarm the people in the house." ”
Qiu Hu ran out silently.
At a glance, I saw the raging flames of the Xifu Inn on the other side of the intersection, and I sighed in my heart, and grabbed the wooden ladder and ran over with everyone, the Xifu Inn was not far from here, and everyone rushed over to extinguish the fire, the yard was muddy, the screams of women, the cry of children, one after another was messy, and many guests who stayed in the hotel ran out in their clothes, and kept complaining about why the inn was running water.
All the boys were busy putting out the fire, and no one came forward to comfort them.
Fortunately, the fire was discovered as soon as it started, and the rescue was timely, and it only took a cup of tea to extinguish the fire in the small cross-courtyard of the independent courtyard, but fortunately a couple living in it did not sleep, except for being frightened, but not injured.
The shopkeeper comforted him with kind words, let out his house for them to live in, and thanked the people who came to extinguish the fire: "Thank you folks for coming to help, thank you, when we clean up, we will invite everyone to drink tea." ”
Then the people dispersed.
Qiu Hu took the initiative to stay with the shopkeeper to check the courtyard where the fire started, and carefully inquired about the people who came in and out, and had a guess in his heart, and when he went back, he saw a candle lit up in Pei Ze's house, so he knocked on the door and walked in: "They should be coming for the Hou Ye, no need to ask, it must be Prince Chun's people." ”
"Someone doesn't want me to invite Mr. Chang." Pei Ze frowned, thinking of this, he immediately took his coat and put it on, and said as he walked, "Find a few more people to protect their mother and son, and you will follow me to see Mr. Chang." ”
It's not good, if someone is here to attack him, he will definitely go to Mr. Chang.
It was he who was careless.
Qiu Hu understood: "Master Hou, don't worry, these are all my people, and they are very safe." ”
Hua Jiao rubbed his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Something's wrong, I'm going to take a look." Pei Ze stood in front of the bed, tucked the bed tent, and said softly, "Don't worry, I'll be back soon." ”
"Stay safe." Pepper instructed him.
Pei Ze nodded, strode out of the door, and went to the stable with Qiu Hu to lead the horse, and the two quickly disappeared into the dark night.
As soon as he left, the pepper completely lost his sleep.
She listened to a few words and knew that it was the Xifu Inn that caught fire, and it seemed to have something to do with them...... Fortunately, I didn't stay at the Xifu Inn tonight, otherwise...... Hua Jiao looked at Brother Xuan'er, who was sleeping soundly, and hugged it in his arms, it was still too terrible outside.
The candles on the table were drowsy.
Hua Jiao put down the child, got out of bed and picked out the candle, and when the house was brighter, he went to the bed to pick up the child, how smooth the first two days, she had some drums in her heart, and always felt that it was too smooth, but she didn't think that there was such a dangerous thing hidden behind the smooth.
It's strange that few people know about their coming to Yuzhou.
Who leaked the news?
When it was almost dawn, Pei Zecai came back and told Huajiao: "Someone doesn't want me to meet Mr. Chang, this is a person who knows the inside story, and he knows that the emperor was most afraid of Mr. Chang, although I didn't see Mr. Chang last night, but I know that he is still in Yuzhou, let's go and find him later." ”
"Okay, it's enough to be frightened once, but don't dare to do it again." Huajiao raised his eyebrows and said, "Didn't you say that there is no problem with safety?" You see, something like this happened. ”
Pei Ze said calmly: "If we stay at the Xifu Inn tonight, then the Xifu Inn will definitely not be able to catch fire." ”
"You'll comfort yourself." Sichuan pepper couldn't cry or laugh.
Most of the people who put out the fire last night were people from Qiu Hu Inn, and early in the morning they discussed the fire at the Xifu Inn, some said that it was accidentally fired, some said that it was man-made, and said everything.
Mr. Chang lives in a village at the foot of the mountain.
There are mountains, waters, flowers and grasses, scattered and orderly, and the scenery is very good.
Qiu Hu stopped the carriage and asked the villagers about Mr. Chang's whereabouts, and the villagers shook their heads and pointed to one of the mountain roads: "Go to the gossip map in front, get off the carriage, and then go up the stairs to find Mr. Chang." ”
Qiu Hu stopped the carriage in front of the gossip map.
Hua Jiao took off the strap and put it on his body, put Xuan Ge'er in, Pei Ze looked at the freshness, he had to try it, Hua Jiao had to tie the strap on him, put Xuan Ge'er in his arms, Pei Ze praised: "This is really convenient, I will take it when I go out in the future." ”
Qiu Hu couldn't help laughing.
It was the first time he saw a man holding a child with a strap, he was curious, so he took a few more looks, Pei Ze tidied up the strap, strode in front, Huajiao and Qiu Hu followed closely around the gossip array, climbed up the stone steps, and halfway up the mountainside, sure enough, he saw a small courtyard, but the gate of the small courtyard was locked, and it was locked out of the door with them.
The three of them waited at the door with their children.
After waiting for more than two hours, Brother Xuan had already changed five diapers, and Mr. Chang did not show up.
It's noon.
The sun was still quite sunny in February, and it was cold in the shade of the trees, so Hua Jiao ran to the carriage again, took a small quilt and covered Xuan Ge'er, and Pei Ze carried his son back and forth to catch butterflies, Pei Ze seemed to be used to being locked out of the door, and he didn't think there was anything wrong.
"Why don't we look around?" Hua Jiao proposed, "Maybe I can meet Mr. Chang." ”
"No need, let's wait here!" Pei Ze looked around, looked at the flat land in front of him, had a number in his heart, and said, "Mr. Chang is here, if it weren't for Mr. Chang, who would be able to take care of such a beautiful land." ”
Huajiao will understand: "Mr. Chang is so coincidental, he can not say that he can be literate and martial, and he is also a good hand at planting crops, but I don't know if his old man is willing to accept apprentices anymore, I really want to learn from him to learn agriculture or something, it is best to look at the weather, and see a quasi-one." ”
"Then you've got the right person." Pei Ze said, "It's just that Mr. Chang may not be able to accept you, he said that I am his closed disciple, and he will never be a master to anyone." ”
"Who said that?" A voice in the grass was disdainful.
