Chapter 52: The Vinegar King's Search for Jade
Seeing that it was getting dark, the Xue family liked Qin Yu's straightforwardness very much, so he invited Qin Yu and Li Rou to stay for dinner and then ask the boss to send them back.
"Shopkeeper Qin, you don't mind if I call you like this. I am very happy to see you, and I will stay with the little girl in the evening and have supper, and then go back. Xue looked at Qin Yu with a smile on his face, with a look of kindness and concern on his face, Qin Yu really couldn't refuse an elder's invitation.
There was no other way, so I had to stay with Li Rou and have dinner with the boss's family.
When Mulan came back, she saw that the shop was closed, thinking that Qin Yu and Li Rou were going out shopping. Thinking of his cold attitude towards Qin Yu in the past few days, he planned to cook a table of good dishes to comfort Qin Yu.
Now, for the sake of his own cooking, he should be forgiven for his unspeakable secret.
"Qin Yu, Qin Yu, you have to feel honored that Uncle Ben personally cooked for you, and you have to eat them all with gratitude in order to prove that the relationship between us cannot be ignored." While cutting the vegetables, Mulan Feng fantasized about Qin Yu's surprised eyes when he ate the meal he had made himself.
The more I think about it, the happier Mulan Feng becomes, completely ignoring the appearance that the vegetables he cut with his hands are not vegetables. A fish was thrown into a pot with water without even removing the scales, and without disemboweling it, it was boiled.
The guard, who was hiding in the shadows, felt some pain in his skull.
Here, Mulan Feng was cooking with great interest to surprise Qin Yu, and over there, Qin Yu was eating delicacies from the mountains and seas at the boss's house.
I really don't blame her, since she came to this other world, she has never eaten such a sumptuous dinner. Although her mother has some business ability and can earn a lot of silver, she can't bear to have a gambling father, and her original body can barely grow so big to be Amitabha.
Although it was the first time she had eaten such a sumptuous dinner in another world, she didn't gobble it up, but compared to Xue and Li Rou, her appetite was just a little bigger.
The Xue family originally ate little, and Li Rou didn't dare to eat at all on this occasion, so only Qin Yu was here to eat happily. Unaware that it was getting late, there was a weird-tempered Mulan Feng waiting for her at home.
"Seeing Shopkeeper Qin's good appetite, I can't help but want to eat more, alas, I envy people like Shopkeeper Qin, who are very straightforward and straightforward." Xue put down the bowl, and the maid next to him hurriedly brought a handkerchief to wipe Xue's lips.
Qin Yu swallowed the food in his mouth, just smiled, and did not speak. In other words, she is not so good-looking, why does this Xue family look at her so pleasing to the eye for no reason? It's really puzzling.
Mulan Feng sat at the table in a daze, looking at the already cold food, and her mind turned a thousand times. It's dark this day, Qin Yu and Li Rou should also come back, something must have happened if they haven't returned so late.
Thinking of this, Mulan Feng immediately closed the door of the shop, walked to an old man who had been begging here all day not far in front of the shop, and put a few copper coins in his broken bowl.
The sound of the tinkling copper coin striking on the porcelain bowl made the begging old man raise his head.
"Uncle, have you seen where the shopkeeper Qin and the little maid serving tea and water in the opposite shop have gone all day today?" Mulan Feng forcibly endured the uneasiness in his heart and asked in a calm tone as much as possible.
The old beggar tried hard to open his cloudy old eyes, and when he saw clearly the male shopkeeper in the opposite shop, he opened his mouth and said in his broken voice: "This great good man, I haven't seen the shopkeeper Qin and the little maid in the opposite shop all day today. "That little maid is a good fate, she sold herself here to bury her father a few days ago, and was bought by the shopkeeper Qin to do some work to serve tea and burn the fire.
If it is bought back by that impure and vicious person, I am afraid that the end will be unpredictable. Although the old man has been begging, his heart is like a mirror, this society, the more you see it, the more you understand.
"Thank you, uncle." The uneasiness in Mulan Feng's heart became more and more obvious, and he frowned and walked quickly towards the outskirts of the city, shouting Qin Yu's name as he went.
Could it be that this person has been taken captive by some bad guy? Or is it his secretly ruthless brother?
Impossible. His news here is extremely hidden, and no one will know about it.
But the uneasiness gradually magnified, which made Mulan Feng feel very worried. The steps under his feet are getting faster and faster, and the sound of calling is getting louder and louder.
"Qin Yu!"
There are few pedestrians in the suburbs of the city, not to mention that it is dark now, and there is no one in the darkness. And Mulan Feng came out in a hurry, and he didn't bring a lantern, he blindly kept shouting Qin Yu's name in this wilderness.
Suddenly, a wild dog came out of the grass, and without saying a word, it bit the restless Mulan Feng, and Mulan Feng pulled out his knife and cut the wild dog into two pieces, splashing his blood.
"Okay, you Qin Yu! When I find you, I'm going to want you to look good! Having said that, Mulan Feng became even more uneasy in her heart. This biting wild dog can't bark at all, he is a person who knows martial arts before the wild dog bites his leg and is injured, if it is a weak woman like Qin Yu, wouldn't she be swallowed by a wild dog?
"Qin Yu! Where are you? Thinking of this, Mulan Feng was even more anxious, and her voice was about to burst.
I don't know how he walked, and he walked back with a limp on an injured leg. The small shops were all closed, and only a few houses were still lit up, and the shops he opened with Qin Yu in the distance were still dark.
Qin Yu didn't come back.
Mulan Feng, who was flustered in his heart, suddenly regretted that he hadn't explained his affairs to Qin Yu a few days ago, and just when he regretted it, he suddenly saw Xue Li's carriage turn out from the side of the street.
He limped and followed, the carriage was not moving fast, and Mulan Feng was not very difficult to follow. However, after a while, the carriage stopped at the shop he and Qin Yu opened, and Mulan Fen also quickened his pace and limped after him.
However, the next scene made him stop in shock, and he seemed to hear the sound of something breaking in his head.
The boss stretched out his hand and let Qin Yu jump out of the carriage with the help of his hand, followed by Li Rou. This carriage Mulan style is very familiar, and it is definitely Xue Li's carriage. He glanced at the boss again, and sure enough, he looked a little like Xue Li in some places.
Mulan Feng immediately understood the relationship between the boss and Xue Li, he had a cold face, and stood silently to the side watching Qin Yu and the boss get out of the carriage talking and laughing, and looked at the two as if they had not been separated, standing in front of the shop and chatting.
It was as if there was a fire in my heart, and it was burning.
