Chapter 20: Escape
Hearing Meng Sihong's words, the teahouse was full of people, and the tea guests stretched their necks to listen to the following. The storyteller explained his achievements with the army outside the customs one by one, not only young and promising, but also a talent, just a glance makes people dream.
Yueci listened attentively and asked her, "Sister, do you think this Meng Sihong is really as powerful as he said?" ”
"There is a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger in Jingyang City, and you will understand it when you arrive."
Jiang Xi was bent on escaping, and said a few perfunctory words.
Yueci was even more excited, muttering that she wanted to get to Jingyang early, and the storyteller talked about the climax and ups and downs, and the hustle and bustle in the building continued. Jiang Xi felt a little noisy inexplicably, turned his head and turned his face towards the wide open window to blow the wind, and happened to see that there were sugar gourds selling on the street below. She thought for a while, and said in a moon-exploring porcelain tone: "Do you like to eat sugar gourds?" ”
"I like it!" Yueci nodded again and again.
"It's sold downstairs, and I just want to eat it, you wait, I'll buy it." Jiang Xi pressed the moon porcelain who wanted to resign, and said that thanks to her for taking care of her for many days, the sugar gourd was a heart. She was kind by nature, and she had a good impression of Jiang Xi, so she didn't refuse again.
Jiang Xi went downstairs to buy a sugar gourd and didn't rush up, but greeted the child who was playing with stones in front of the shop, handed him one, and said, "Do my sister a little favor, and I'll give you this sugar gourd to eat." You, give the other one to the yellow-clothed sister by the window on the second floor, okay? ”
"Okay."
The child was greedy for the red and bright sugar gourd, so he took this favor and ran into the teahouse while holding one in his mouth. When he went upstairs to finish handing in the task, Yueci secretly screamed in his heart, and hurriedly went downstairs to find someone, but there was no trace of Jiang Xi. Seeing her arresting people on the street and asking questions, she was so anxious that she looked tearful, Jiang Xi felt guilty in her heart, she couldn't help but dare to stay longer after reading a few words, turned around and ran away.
I almost lost my life several times, and Xiao Siyu will definitely not be able to go back. Thinking that Xiao Siyu was not a tolerant master, and knew where her uncle's family lived, her first thought was to sneak back to Jingyang to take her younger brother away, and then persuade her uncle's family to leave as soon as possible.
But her single-handedness can't compare to the prince's information, Yueci couldn't find anyone to go to the post house to report the news, and the news returned two hours earlier than her.
When the deaf pigeon entered the house with the news, Xiao Siyu was practicing calligraphy in the study with great interest, and asked without raising her head: "Where are they?" ”
He hadn't seen him for half a month, and he missed the flattering little minion a little.
I don't know how the recovery is, the person is not there, he really lacks fun.
"Ran away."
The deaf pigeon replied with a loud voice, and when he saw him holding the pen, he paused, and said, "Yueci sent a message, borrowed something, and ran away." ”
He started writing again, not angry but laughing, the whole person looked very happy, and when he was familiar with the last Wei character Dacheng, he put the pen into the pen wash.
The water was soaked in ink, and he curled his lips with high interest: "Where can she run, she has fun before she comes back, and it is not in vain that I saved her." ”
Jiang Xi didn't dare to stop all the way, and took a passerby's ox cart to arrive at his uncle's house at the time of the unitary, knocking on the back door for a long time like a thief.
After seeing no one respond for a long time, she was about to climb the wall, when she suddenly heard footsteps coming, the wooden door opened, Jiang Chao was surprised and happy when she saw her: "Sister! Why did you come back and go through the back door? ”
"It's hard to put it into words, it's great that you came to open the door, and Sister Ah is here to pick you up and leave here. My uncle and aunt are not at home, and I have an urgent need to find them. ”
She said a lot, and before Jiang Chao could answer, her aunt's puzzled voice came from afar: "Who is there?!" ”
When she approached with small steps, and saw clearly that it was Jiang Xi through the light on the door, she changed her snarky normal, smiled and grabbed her arm, and said with a smile: "I said that the magpie is always barking on the roof today, it turns out that Xi'er is back, why don't you go back to the gate, and look at where the gray nose is drilling?" ”
It's amazing!
It turned out that when she saw her, she stared at her with a sharp mouth and called her a white-eyed wolf and a dead aunt, why was she suddenly so enthusiastic today?
