"Nonsense! Lao Tzu is not stupid. The man with the knife had a fierce look.

He was very confident in his kung fu: "Those people are all in your yard, who else in this village can escape under my nose except them?" ”

The village chief's eyelids twitched, and he sneered: "It's best if you are really so powerful, those dart masters will not be easy to deal with when they look at it, and when the time comes, you will only ask!" ”

"Hmph, it's better to worry about this, than to worry about how to feed the medicine into their mouths."

The matter had been discussed, and the big man with the knife didn't bother to look at the village chief, so he leaned on the back of the knife on his shoulder and left.

Among the people left behind was the village chief's henchmen, and when he saw the village chief's face pale, he scolded flatteringly: "What kind of thing is this Niu Qing?" Didn't you just go out and learn some kung fu, as if we were really afraid of him! Hmph, if we weren't short of manpower, he would be good-looking! ”

Someone helped to scold a few words, and the village chief felt much more comfortable, so he pretended to clear his throat and said, "Okay, it's all from the same village, our goal now is to deal with those outsiders, don't worry so much." ”

The henchman scolded a few more words, and then said with a smile: "Niu Qing is lucky, I met you, and I am broad-minded and don't care about him." If it were me, huh! ”

A set of serial sycophants was patted, and the village chief finally felt comfortable, smiled and waved his hand: "Everyone is scattered." In the afternoon, the guy had to go up to the tea mountain, so be careful not to leak the news. ”

Everyone nodded yes, and then they scattered with hoes in twos and threes.

The village head, Old Man Yang, also walked towards the courtyard where he temporarily lived with his hands behind his back, and saw his eldest daughter-in-law probing his brain behind the door.

As soon as he saw this brainless mother-in-law, Old Man Yang's wrinkled old face sank suddenly, and two fierce lights shot out from under his drooping eyelids: "Boss! ”

"Aye, what are you looking for me?" The boss of the Yang family was chopping wood in the courtyard, and when he heard the old man Yang calling him, he came over wiping his sweat.

Old man Yang tied the door shut, and then pointed to the eldest daughter-in-law and said, "How do you care about your daughter-in-law?" didn't stare at it, and almost ruined our family's good deeds! ”

When Lu Ming came to rent the yard, he took out a large ingot of silver without saying a word, and Old Man Yang guessed that the people who came to borrow it were either rich or expensive.

In these years, there were many soldiers and chaos, there were countless robbers and robbers, and the disappearance of a few people was not a miracle at all, so I had the intention of killing people and robbing money at that time.

It's just that their family alone can't move the dozen or so practitioners, so they settle this group of people to live on one end, and find the strong laborers in the village to discuss how to deal with it.

Who knows, before the charter was discussed, he was almost ruined by this eventful mother-in-law.

Old man Yang gritted his teeth with hatred: "Lock her in the house, don't let her run around until this matter is over!" ”

When the eldest daughter-in-law heard this, her fat face was so aggrieved that she puffed into a ball: "Aya, aren't I doing this for our family?" You also saw it, the family doesn't know how rich they are, a little scum leaking out of their fingers is enough for us to eat for a year, if we can make a little mistake, we don't have to worry about our stomachs! ”

"Didn't you teach us that? There are no dates to hit three poles...... I did what you said, why are you scolding me? ”

Rats' eyes! Old man Yang, who had read the book for two years, scolded in his heart, but he couldn't tell the truth to these two fools, so he had to tighten the old bark face: "I can't tell you clearly!" In short, stay in the house honestly these days, don't come out and get into trouble! ”

The eldest daughter-in-law was very unconvinced, and wanted to fight again. However, the big slap of the Yang family's boss Pu had already slapped her face: "Didn't you hear what my father said?" Hurry back to the house! ”

The eldest daughter-in-law knew that her man was not a hurtful person, so she quickly shrunk her neck and hid back in the house, but the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and the more she thought about it, the more pity she felt. When he saw Jinbao playing in the courtyard, his eyes rolled and he thought about it.

Lu Ming and Taste Le were here, carrying fragrant meat and eggplant cakes, all the way to the most dilapidated thatched hut in the village.

This is also what Du Baozhu explained, the clothes on the child's body are patched and patched, and it is not easy to look at life, and you will definitely find it if you look for it in the broken thatched house.

However, he searched all the dilapidated houses on the edge of the village, but he could not see any sign of the child, and he did not know if he was afraid to hide.

Tasting the aroma of eggplant cakes, saliva flooded, and he couldn't help but stand on tiptoe in the shade of the tree: "Brother Luming, we have searched all over the village now, and there is no trace, so it is better to go back and ask the little lady first, and then make plans." ”

At this time, the sun was big, Lu Ming's forehead was covered with fine sweat, and his stomach was empty, but he still shook his head: "Look for it again." ”

He is different from Taste Le, he can't be trusted by Du Baozhu, if he can't even do this little thing, what qualifications do he have to stay by Du Baozhu's side to do things?

Thinking so, he suddenly saw a swarthy eye secretly watching him through the crack in the door of a neatly manicured adobe courtyard.

The eyes were like mud pills, round and bright, and they looked a little familiar. His heart moved, and he stepped forward and knocked on the door: "Is anyone home?" ”

The figure behind the crack in the door took a few steps back, and hesitated for a moment before opening the door a crack: "Is there something wrong with the official?" ”

It is the gray child that Du Baozhu is looking for.

When everyone saw that he was dressed in shabby clothes, they all thought that he was from a poor background, and they looked for him in a dilapidated hut. Unexpectedly, I met him here.

It was rare to see the little lady guess wrong, Lu Ming buckled the beads of sweat on the door of her head, and laughed: "I'm not an official, just call me 'Brother Ming'." ”

He beckoned to call over to the taster: "Oh, this is the eggplant cake just now, and I will give you a plate." ”

Du's eggplant cake is a meat eggplant cake, in addition to the plump and large eggplant slices, there is also a thin layer of meat foam, wrapped in flour and fried in a hot oil pan, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, tender and juicy, the most delicious.

Although it was a little cooler at this time, the aroma was still undiminished, and the child secretly swallowed saliva when he smelled the aroma, but shook his head firmly: "Sister said, 'No merit, no luck', I can't ask for it." ”

Scold? Is his sister still a student? Lu Ming raised his eyebrows, and this time he was even more sure that he had found the right person, so he took out the eggplant cake and stuffed it into the child's hand: "This is my little lady's reward for you, you don't need to say anything about 'Gong Ah Lu'." It was originally fried for you to eat, and if you don't want it, you can only throw it away, wouldn't it be a waste? ”

The taste on the side listened to Lu Ming's words, and he was so anxious that his eyebrows were not eyebrows, and his eyes were not eyes: Who said to throw it away? If he doesn't eat, won't he still have me?

However, before she could speak, the horns of her clothes were pulled by Lu Ming, and her face turned red, so she didn't care about arguing.

The children behind the door had to throw away such fragrant eggplant cakes when they heard that they didn't eat them, and their clear eyes showed reluctance. He struggled in his heart for a while before he made up his mind.

Glancing back at the courtyard, he saw that no one in the courtyard noticed the movement at the door, so he quietly walked out of the door and whispered, "Brother Ming, can you really give me this plate of eggplant cakes?" ”

"How can this be fake?" Lu Ming stuffed the plate into his arms: "Oh, let's eat." ”

The eggplant cake has a golden sheen on the plate, which makes the eyes straighten when you taste it. However, the child did not make any other movement except to swallow his saliva, but carefully held the plate in his arms and walked a few steps to a remote place.

Seeing this, Lu Ming also walked over: "You said you still have a sister, right?" ”

After all, the child was young, and at the moment he was hooked by the eggplant cake, and his vigilance was much weaker, and he nodded obediently.

Lu Ming said, "Where is your sister?" Can you let us meet? ”

The child looked at Luming, then at the eggplant cake and the taste, lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking, and finally nodded: "Then you, follow me." ”

As he spoke, he held the plate and walked towards the direction of the tea mountain with two short legs.

The tea mountain is on the edge of the village, the mountain is not high, and the sunny side is artificially carved out of a wide staircase for planting tea trees, and the scale is not small.

The child skillfully crossed the stream with the deer and followed the rock-paved path to a small inconspicuous pergola, and then raised his voice and shouted, "Sister! ”

The man in the pergola heard the movement, bent down and came out, and when he saw the deer chirping and tasting the music, he took a step back vigilantly: "Who are you?" ”

Lu Ming narrowed his eyes and did not speak.

The little girl who came out was about thirteen or fourteen years old, as thin and dark as a child, and the only advantage was that she was quite tall, more than a head above Lego.

The little girl's eyes were clear, staring at Lu Ming, and she didn't forget to pull her younger brother behind her to protect her.

The child was pulled by her, and the eggplant cake in her arms almost fell out, and quickly explained: "Sister, they are, good people." Give it back to us, and eat the eggplant cake. ”

The little girl listened to her brother's words, her slender brows furrowed tightly, and she hated that iron could not become steel: "You begged for food again?" Didn't I tell you? You have to have backbone, and you can't lose Ye Niang's face! ”

The child's face was full of shame when she said it, and she hung her head and whispered: "However, Sister Ah gave me all the food, and she was hungry." ”

It turned out that the child was so greedy that he was reluctant to eat an eggplant cake, which was all reserved for his sister. Lu Ming suddenly realized, and his impression of the two sisters and brothers was a little better.

The sister was also stunned when she heard her brother's words, and only touched the top of her brother's hair for a while and said, "This is the last time, and you are not allowed to do it again in the future." ”

The child wilted and responded, shrinking behind his sister and refusing to come out.

Only then did the sister look up at Lu Ming and Taste Le: "You have also seen that our sister and brother have nothing to do with anything, and there is nothing to repay you, so let's take back this eggplant cake." ”

Lu Ming touched the tip of his nose and said with a smile: "It's okay, my master didn't think about returning the eggplant cake when he gave it." ”

The little girl still refused to accept it: "My father has a teaching, and he should not accept favors from others in vain." ”

"Since that's the case......" Lu Ming saw that the little girl was determined not to accept this eggplant, so he simply got straight to the point and said: "We are here, we have something to ask the little lady for advice, I wonder if the little lady can talk about it?" ”

The little girl had a look of 'sure enough' on her face, and shook her head slightly: "I don't know anything, if you have anything, just ask the village chief." ”

Lu Ming's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he suddenly asked, "The little lady seems to know who we are?" ”
