Chapter 174: Asking for a map
Coming out of the teahouse, Mo Ying went around the street again, bought a set of four treasures of the study for Jiaming, bought a bag of sesame candy for the baby, a pair of head flowers made of silk cloth, and bought two rock sugar gourds.
This time, Mo Ying did not walk, and hired a donkey cart for twenty copper plates.
When there is still half a mile away from the entrance of the village, Mo Ying came down, this village is too poor, a village has a donkey cart, or an old donkey, can no longer do heavy work, let alone horse-drawn carts and ox-carts, there is no at all.
This hour is early, everyone has just made lunch, and when Mo Ying pushed the door in, Wei Meilian had just picked a handful of small green vegetables from the vegetable garden behind the house.
"Moying?" Wei Meilian's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly welcomed Mo Ying in, and while taking the things in her hand, she shouted, "Brother Yang, baby, Jiaming, look at who's coming?" ”
"Sister......
"Sister......
The baby and Jiaming ran over together, Mo Ying squatted down, grabbed the baby with one hand, and touched Jiaming's head with the other, with a spoiled face.
"The baby has grown taller! Have you been good lately? Mo Ying asked.
"Well, the baby will wash the veil by himself!" The baby's red little face was slightly raised, and a look of praise made Mo Ying couldn't help but twist her little face.
"The baby is awesome, my sister has a gift this time!" Turning his head and saying to Jiaming, "Has Jiaming studied hard recently?" ”
"Yes, yes!" Jia Ming nodded again and again, "I can already write the words on the three-character scripture!" ”
"Jiaming is also great!" Mo Ying praised.
I divided the things I brought, and the happiest thing was the baby.
"Wow...... It's more beautiful than the big red flowers. ”
Mo Ying smiled and shook her head, how old is this villain who loves beauty? She thought that the baby's favorite was hemp candy!
"Da Hong didn't even let me touch it last time, and I won't let her touch it this time!" The baby looked stunned, and handed the head flower to Wei Meilian, "Mother, help me bring it!" ”
"Okay, okay, my mother will bring it to you."
The baby combed two small buns today, just one on one side, which is very cute.
"Is it pretty? Is it good-looking? The baby chased after the person and asked.
Naturally, everyone spoiled her.
Jiaming has been sensible a lot, since he read, he only has a pen and half a grinder, such a complete set of four treasures of the study, he has never seen it.
Brother Yang looked at the four treasures of the study, it was not too good, it was only medium, even so, the price was enough for a family of four in the village to chew for a year.
"Although my sister gave this to you, you can't use it now, and you can only give it to you when you know the hundred family names and thousand-character texts!" Brother Yang spoke.
Jiaming touched it lovingly, very reluctant, but still handed it out, with a firm face: "The child will definitely learn hard!" ”
Brother Yang took it and nodded, very satisfied with his performance.
While talking, the baby ran into the house and changed into new clothes, and pulled Jiaming to go out.
Jiaming saw Brother Yang nodding in agreement, and then took his sister out.
"This girl must be showing off again!" Wei Meilian said with a smile.
"Come on, let's all go in first!" Thinking that they were all standing in the courtyard, Wei Meilian hurriedly said.
The three of them entered the house, and Wei Meilian was busy pouring water and getting food.
"There are no good things at home, they are all self-made avocals, try them!"
This oil fruit is especially like the grasshopper leg fried in the countryside when I was a child, crispy and crispy.
"I used to blow it up at home when I was a kid, but it was wrapped in sugar!" Mo Ying picked up an avocado and said while eating.
"I've also eaten sugar, but here's ......"
The three of them knew in their hearts that sugar was a rare thing, even if they had money to buy it, they didn't dare to take it out and wrap it in candy.
Meilian also saw that Mo Ying was in trouble this time, so after chatting a few words, she was about to go to cook.
Mo Ying stopped, and she didn't plan to avoid Wei Meilian.
Wei Meilian patted her hand and said with a smile, "Say it!" Later, those two little things will come back and some of them will make trouble! ”
After Meilian went out, there were only two people in the house, she and Brother Yang, and they were a little embarrassed for a while.
"I heard Ah Lian say that you waited for a long time last time, but what's the matter?" Or Brother Yang asked first.
"Uh...... I know I shouldn't have come to you......" Mo Ying's face turned red, although she was very embarrassed, she still gritted her teeth and said, "I really can't help it, if it will disturb you, it doesn't matter if you don't say it, I ...... I'm not trying to ......."
The last sentence didn't want you to repay the favor, she couldn't say anything.
Brother Yang held the cup in one hand, stroked the wall of the cup, put the other hand on the table, looked down at the tea that had become a little lighter, and said, "If you have anything to say, as long as I can help, I will definitely not refuse!" ”
"I guess you know where I'm from and who I am!" This is an affirmative sentence, not a doubt.
"I'm sorry, I have to make sure I'm safe!" Brother Yang said lightly.
"In that case, I'll just say it, I want a map in the palace, and it's best that there are standards for the secret passage!"
Brother Yang obviously didn't expect her to make this request, so he couldn't help but look at her, saw that she looked serious, and said: "I happen to have a map of the palace in my hand, but I'm not sure if it's true or not, I've only been in the palace for three years and have been outside, so I don't know much about the palace." ”
"That'...... Can you give it to me? ”
Looking at her hopeful eyes, Brother Yang nodded, "Yes, but you have to tell me what it is for." ”
"This ......"
"Do you know how the guards are chosen?" Brother Yang glanced at her and continued, "The hidden guards are all orphans, I can not be a hidden guard and remain incognito for the rest of my life, but I can't betray the royal family." ”
Mo Ying breathed a sigh of relief, it wasn't that she wanted to hide it from them, but that she was too incredible, crossing? Rebirth? Which one will they accept?
"You can rest assured, it will definitely not harm any of the interests of the royal family," Mo Ying hurriedly promised.
"You don't want to run away, do you?"
"Please, I guess I can come out now, okay?" Mo Ying rolled his eyes, thought about his expression just now, and asked in disbelief, "Do you think it's ......?"
pointed at him, and then pointed at Wei Meilian in the kitchen, "I'm just like you, right?" ”
Brother Yang coughed lightly and didn't speak, obviously Mo Ying guessed correctly.
"How is that possible!" Mo Ying's eyes widened, "I'm not impatient to live again!" ”
Brother Yang took care of the loss, and only drank tea silently on the side.
"Brother Yang, do you plan to do this for the rest of your life?" Mo Ying asked.
"That's good."
"It's good for the time being!" Mo Ying looked at the courtyard, Sister Meilian was busy going in and out, and the smell of rice wafted in the house, although she was poor, it really looked like a home.
Brother Yang didn't reply, waiting for her to continue.
"Actually, I used to want to live honestly for the rest of my life, but reality doesn't allow it."
