Chapter Seventy-One: The Low-key Mrs. Zhao

Early the next morning, Xiao Qi got up and went to Hua's house to get prey, and saw that Hua Xi'er was practicing five bird plays in the yard, Xiao Qi was very surprised: "Aunt Xi, don't you usually like to sleep lazy?" ”

Hua Xi'er took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on her forehead, and said, "I deliberately got up early to wait for you, Xiao Qi, you went to the mountains yesterday, and you didn't even call me to go with you." ”

Xiao Qi: "Aunt Xi, you were injured last time you went to the mountains, and Grandpa Hua would definitely not let you go if he was at home." ”

Xiao Qi went to the backyard to get the prey, and said as he walked: "I was not very lucky yesterday, so I only got some small prey like chickens and rabbits, and I will sell them in the town later." ”

Hua Xi'er followed behind her, "My father and mother went out yesterday, will you go to the mountains tomorrow, take me with you." The flower-like girl followed behind a small ball, but she looked extremely coordinated.

Xiao Qi: "Aunt Xi, why did Granny Hua go with me this time?" ”

"My mother has a distant relative who sent a letter saying that she has my uncle's whereabouts, it is said that people are in Lin'an, Jiangnan, far away, my father and my mother set off yesterday, and it may take a long time to come back."

"Xiao Qi, you just let your aunt go to the mountain with you, I have a way to deal with those traps, we can go up the mountain with a long wooden stick, and the road ahead will be tried with a wooden stick before walking."

Xiao Qi sounded very reasonable.

Hua Xi'er didn't give Xiao Qi time to be in a daze, took the money from the house, and followed behind Xiao Qi, "Aren't you going to the town?" Hurry up, I'll be with you. ”

Mrs. Zhao was a little uneasy, closed the courtyard door, and came up with big heels: "Miss, there are many seasonings at home, I will go to the town with you." ”

They met the ox cart in Wangjia Village on the way, and Hua Xi'er hurriedly waved her hand to stop the ox cart.

After climbing into the ox cart, Hua Xi'er rubbed her legs and complained: "I didn't expect to be so tired from walking, I already knew to go to the village chief's house to hire an ox cart." ”

After arriving in the town, Xiao Qi knocked on a few households where she used to deliver vegetables to her door, and soon sold out the wild things.

Hua Xi'er pulled her to buy a lot of things on the street, she had everything to eat, and she wanted to buy everything she saw, so she filled Xiao Qi's back basket to the brim, and the three of them took some of the others that couldn't fit into the back basket.

After getting tired of shopping, Hua Xi'er pulled Xiao Qi and Zhao Pozi into the Phoenix Teahouse.

After Hua Xi'er sat down, she was very happy to hear that Mr. Storyteller was telling the story of the Flying Hero, "Ah, it's really a coincidence today, it just happens to be about the Flying Hero, Xiao Qi, do you remember?" I said I'd take you to listen to the Flying Heroes. ”

"Remember, I can hear the words "Flying Hero" every day when I see Aunt Xi."

Mrs. Zhao listened for a while and praised: "This flying hero sounds really powerful." ”

This sentence is exactly what Hua Xi'er wants, and Hua Xi'er is proud, as if praising the flying hero is like praising her.

Halfway through, Hua Xi'er went to the thatched house, and when she came back, she whispered in Xiao Qi's ear: "I seem to have seen pear blossoms just now." ”

The two walked out of the box together, Hua Xi'er led the way, and sure enough, they saw Pear Blossom and the young master of the Wang family in a box. Pear Blossom was wearing embroidered clothes that Hua Xi'er had given her before, and she wore silk flowers given by Hua Xi'er on her head.

The young master of the Wang family didn't know what to say, and Pear Blossom giggled when she heard it, her eyes were fluttering and moving.

Xiao Qi wanted to walk in and greet the two, but was stopped by Hua Xi'er: "I think they shouldn't want to see you now." ”

Xiao Qi: "I don't know what the young master of the Wang family said, I seem to be very happy to see Sister Lihua." ”

Hua Xi'er: "It's not too early, we should go back too." ”

When the three of them were waiting for the ox cart at the gate of the opera garden, Hua Xier and Xiao Qi were chatting happily, and a dart sneaked in, and Zhao Pozi jumped and reached out to catch the dart with agility.

Xiao Qi and Hua Xi'er hurriedly swept around, and after a while, no darts came again, and they were all relieved.

Mrs. Zhao: "Don't be surprised, young ladies, I will only have some simple self-defense techniques, you wait here for a while, and I'll go see which villain has a hidden weapon." ”

Xiao Qi looked at Mrs. Zhao's back eagerly, "Aunt Xi, I really didn't expect that your Mrs. Zhao would be so powerful." ”

Hua Xi'er was also stunned, "I didn't expect it myself." ”

In the small alley next to the opera garden, the Wu steward of the Wu million family smashed a dime of broken silver on a thin man, who was dressed very neatly, dressed as a Jianghu person.

Thin man: "Didn't you say that you would give ten taels of silver?" How can it be so little. ”

Steward Wu squinted his eyes at the thin man, with a look of disdain, "The thing has not been done, and I still want ten taels, and I will treat these few coins of silver as a flower child." ”

The thin man left with an angry face, and Steward Wu snorted, "This broken martial art actually dares to be called a pan-mountain dragon, I think it's almost the same as a pan-mountain prawn, a useless thing, a soft-footed prawn." ”

As he was talking, a dart struck, and Steward Wu's ears were deeply embedded in the wall next to him along with the darts, and Steward Wu cried in pain, "My ears, my ears." ”

Xiao Qisan returned to the entrance of Liujia Village in an ox cart, the three of them were full of things, and when they passed by the big willow tree at the entrance of the village, Mrs. Zhao was enthusiastically pulled by the women to sit down on the stone bench.

"I heard that the lord and lady of the Hua family have gone far away."

Mrs. Zhao nodded with a smile.

"I've bought so many things today, I'll see what they are."

A woman stretched out her hand to pull something on Mrs. Zhao's body.

Xiao Qi felt that the women in the village were quite bold, if they saw Zhao Pozi's bare hands to catch darts, I don't know if they would be like this swarm.

Hua Xi'er couldn't stand the women's thoughts, so she opened two packs of snacks and rescued Mrs. Zhao.

Hua Xi'er: "This is bought from the time-honored Qin Ji dim sum shop, everyone can taste it, we still have something to do, so we will leave first." ”

Qin Ji's dim sum is the most famous and the most expensive in Phoenix Town.

The women's minds were now focused on grabbing snacks, and the three of them took the opportunity to leave.

Xiao Qi walked out and saw the woman and the child huddled together under the willow tree.

Back at Hua's house, Xiao Qi helped Hua Xi'er put away the things she bought in the town, and said to Hua Xi'er: "Aunt Xi, I'll go to the mountains tomorrow." ”

Hua Xi'er was very happy: "Good niece, my aunt will accompany you tomorrow, and I will go to see the fawn last time." ”

The two got up early the next morning and set out, and when they arrived in the mountains, they soon found the brook they had seen last time, and followed the stream all the way, and about an hour later they saw a fawn. Hua Xi'er said to Xiao Qi: "This is not the one last time, this fawn is smaller and more cute than the last time I saw it, Xiao Qi, can you catch it?" ”

"I want to keep it in my backyard, so that I can see it every day, doesn't your brother like to draw small animals, let him draw enough when the time comes."

Xiao Qi: "I think it's good for the fawn to stay in the mountains, Aunt Xi, let's go hunting first, and if it hasn't left when it comes back, I'll help you catch it." ”

Hua Xi'er raised her hand and high-fived Xiao Qi: "A word is a certainty." ”

The two played beside the fawn for a while, and then walked along the creek to the depths of the mountain forest, and walked for a long, long time, until they came to a place shrouded in fairy mist.

Xiao Qi: "Aunt Xi, do you think this place looks like a place where immortals live?" ”

Hua Xi'er: "Like, really like, let's go further, maybe we can really meet the gods." ”
