Chapter 235 Returns to Pengzhou
Xiao Qi led the thief all the way to the intersection of the same road.
She couldn't find the Devil Slope in the Taoist priest's mouth, so she hoped that Roaring Heaven would come out and bring these people into the Devil Slope.
But she didn't know how to contact Roaring Sky, and seeing that the leaves on the tree next to her were as bright as jade, Xiao Qi couldn't help but reach out and pluck a piece, put it in her mouth and blew a loud note.
I didn't expect Lu Tian to really hear the sound come out, could it be that he has a heart with her?
Xiao Qi followed behind Roaring Sky and brought all the thieves behind him into the maze.
Later, Roaring Heaven sent her out again, and things went as smoothly as expected.
Xiao Qi rode a horse and quickly found the hiding place of Mu Zichen and the others.
Ah Mo stepped forward: "Little Seventh Girl, you are back, we are all worried about you." ”
Xiao Qi was surrounded by several people and asked long and short questions, and it felt really good to be cared for.
Mu Zhifu's words were very slight: "Little Seventh Girl, I'm really worried about you, I'm worried that you won't be able to come back, and the lives of a few of us won't be saved." ”
The honest prefect is really loved and hated.
Xiao Qi: "Let's not waste time, what if there are other tricks in the county order?" So let's hurry back to Pengzhou. ”
This time they chose a different path, they didn't want to enter the Devil's Slope again, and it was not good to be thirsty and hungry in circles in the wilderness.
Because there was only one horse left, they moved much slower.
After walking for two hours, they were fortunate to encounter a caravan carrying goods bound for Pengzhou.
So a few people from the Mu Governor's Mansion got into the carriage, and Xiao Qi rode a horse to follow the car, all the way to the outside of Pengzhou City.
At the gate of the city, Ah Mo helped Mu Zhifu jump out of the carriage.
Mu Zhifu sighed infinitely, and finally returned to his old nest, it was really not easy, and he almost gave his life to Dongxian.
Zhou Baihu, who was guarding the south city gate, had already greeted him when he heard the news, "Little Seventh Girl, you're back!" ”
Xiao Qi jumped off the horse and nodded with a smile.
Zhou Baihu snatched the reins, "Little Seventh Girl, I'll take the reins for you." ”
Mu Governor felt very lost when he followed behind, he, the prefect, was the number one person in Pengzhou City, why was he not as popular as a head catcher?
In the past, when he suppressed the rebellion outside the city, he still had some impressions of Zhou Baihu, so he stepped forward to talk to Zhou Baihu: "You are Zhou Baihu, I am-"
Zhou Baihu nodded lightly towards the prefect of Mu: "Greetings to the prefect." ”
Then he chatted with Xiao Qi enthusiastically without looking back.
The prefect of Mu felt desolate.
Mu Zihu blinked his eyes and said, "Dad, don't be sad, Xiao Qi saved Zhou Baihu's life, so Zhou Baihu respects Xiao Qi very much." ”
"Oh, I see."
After entering the city, Xiao Qi and Mu Ziqi were separated.
There are a lot of people on the road, probably because the Mid-Autumn Festival is about to pass, so it is very lively.
When he returned home, Xiao Qi didn't see Lao Zhao, who was guarding the gate, and he didn't see anyone else when he entered the yard.
It feels weird, what's going on? It's only been a few days, why is there no one at home?
Xiao Qi walked around the yard and found Lao Zhaotou who was watering the vegetables.
Old Zhao Tou: "Miss is back!" The family went to Qixi Building to help make mooncakes. ”
It turns out that this is the case, Xiao Qi's energy is very good, and he doesn't feel tired at all after a long journey.
After taking a shower at home and changing into clean clothes, he planned to go to Qixi Building to help, but before he stepped out of the door, he met Feng Xiaogongzi.
"Master, I came over as soon as I heard the news of your return, how is the master doing outside these days? Are you thirsty and hungry? Tired or not? ”
Feng Xiaogongzi was very dog-legged, and Ah Wang, who followed him, carried a basket full of fruits in his hand. Xiao Qi smiled: "Feng Yulang, thank you for your concern." ”
"You are my master, I should care about you, the master has not been here during this time, but I have not relaxed at all, and I often come to your house to practice archery."
Xiao Qi: "You come over early tomorrow, I'll teach you some simple kung fu, and now I'm going to Qixi Lou to help make moon cakes." ”
"Master, I'll go with you, and I've often gone to Qixi Building to help these days! Our Qixi House has launched a lot of moon cakes with many fillings, among which winter melon filling is particularly popular. ”
Xiao Qi and Feng Xiaogongzi chatted all the way and soon arrived outside the Qixi Building, and saw that the line to buy moon cakes had already lined up at the end of the street, and they were a little surprised.
When I walked to the hall on the first floor, I saw Liu Dahe peeling winter melons at the door of Qixi Building with Laifu on his back.
Xiao Qi took the paring knife, "Dad, you put the Rifle down and take a walk, I'll peel the skin." ”
Liu Dahe can especially listen to words, not only his wife's words, but also his children's words.
After the winter melon skin was peeled, Xiao Qi took it in, and saw that the Hua family was also busy inside, and Hua Xier was baking moon cakes.
Xiao Qi washed and chopped the winter melon according to Niu's order and put it in the pot.
Niu added some water and sugar to the pot, and said to Xiao Qi: "This will take a long time, Xiao Qi, you have a lot of strength, first help your mother make some puff pastry." ”
After the winter melon was boiled transparent, Niu's turned off the fire and began to wrap moon cakes.
After it was done, Xiao Qi tasted one, the winter melon filling tasted good, sweet but not greasy, no wonder so many people lined up to buy it.
I helped do a lot of things in the shop in one afternoon, and found that the pumpkin filling, five-kernel filling, lotus paste egg yolk filling, and red bean paste filling of Qixi House also sold very well.
Because I was busy until late, I also ate dinner at 7-Up snacks.
When I returned home in the evening, Xiao Qi and Hua Xi'er sat together on the swing in the courtyard and chatted, because it was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, so the moon was round and bright, and there was no meaning.
Hua Xi'er: "Xiao Qi, I have decided to send stinky duck eggs to Jinling to do things." ”
Xiao Qi was a little worried: "Aunt Xi, the stinky duck egg has only been learned for a long time, can you take the lead?" ”
Hua Xi'er said with a smile: "Is it to let him be a buddy, not to send him to be the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper Xiahou has already found a candidate for the shopkeeper." However, the rotten duck eggs are very smart, and they should soon be able to stand alone. ”
On the second day, after going to Qixi Building to help, when I saw the stinky duck eggs, I asked by the way: "Do you like Jinling?" ”
Stinky duck nodded: "I really want to go to Jinling, by the way, I can find my father and mother, I don't know where they ran with the silver." ”
Xiao Qi looked at the bustling crowd and comforted the stinky duck eggs: "As long as there is fate, there will always be goodbye." ”
Recently, the popularity of Qixi House has been very high, and the merchants who rent in Qixi Building have gained a lot, and the transaction volume before the Mid-Autumn Festival is very considerable.
Shopkeeper Xiahou: "Many people have asked when we will build the second Qixi Building." ”
Hua Xi'er smiled: "The second Qixi Building, I am going to build it in Jinling, Xiao Qi, when you are free one day, you call Mu Zixi and Feng Xiaogongzi to discuss." ”
On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Niu returned home very late and said to his family happily: "Xi'er said, winter melon stuffing is very popular, and you want to give me an innovation award, award me a hundred taels of silver." ”
