029, substitution for coolies
Huo Yunqian finished nibbling on the last piece of naan, and at the same time explained the problems in the assembly of parts to the two old craftsmen next to him.
The two old men were both in their sixtieth year, and after listening to her explanation, they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time, and they sighed together for a long time.
One of the round-faced old men patted his cheek, "I didn't expect the back waves of the Yangtze River to push the front waves, our old brothers and sons lived to this age, and I really didn't expect this kind of thing to exist." β
Another old man, who was almost bald, looked at Huo Yunqian and said sincerely: "Little girl, you should be a young man in this ability, and this ability must not be wasted." β
"I have no plans to join the imperial court for the time being." Huo Yunqian picked up the cup next to him and took a big sip of water, and said with a smile, "What's more, I'm just opportunistic, if there is any Luban descendant or Momen master, then I won't be worth mentioning." β
The two old men only thought she was modest, laughed and gaged for a while, and then they all turned back and continued to work.
Seeing that she seemed to be idle, Xu Huo quietly leaned along the base of the wall, walked to her side and looked at the scroll in her hand, but found that he couldn't understand the things painted on it.
ββ¦β¦ Are you scared? β
When he raised his head and saw a face that shouldn't have appeared here, Huo Yunqian was so frightened that he went into cardiac arrest almost instantly.
Xu Huo motioned for her to be silent, turned her back to the group of craftsmen, and finally couldn't help but say in a very low voice: "You want to do it all night here?" β
The low voice brushed his ears, a little itchy, and it made Huo Yunqian feel uncomfortable.
She moved sideways like a crab and muttered, "The rain girl has no melons." Stay away from me, the guards should have the guards' Yazi, okay? β
Xu Hui: ......???
This girl is getting weirder and weirder now.
And he himself is really a little wrong, why did he come out with such a girl?
After Huo Yunqian said this, he suddenly regretted it a little, the day after tomorrow, he had to rely on him to accompany him to transport food to the third brother, why did he offend him at this time.
The big husband can bend and stretch!
I'm not afraid of death, but I'm afraid of asking the enemy for help?
Thinking like this, she quickly tugged Xu Huo's sleeve again, and smiled at him flatteringly, "Oh, Lord Wang, it's me who is wrong, you don't care about the villain, go back to sleep first, I'm still busy here." β
Xu Hui: ......
This girl is not only weird, but she must have been possessed by a ghost, and a face for a while is really terrifying.
Xu Huo shook his head and looked around, but fortunately no one noticed that they were talking in the corner.
He got up, glanced at Huo Yunqian, who was full of flattery, with a complicated expression, and turned to leave.
As soon as Xu Huo left, the smirk on Huo Yunqian's face immediately dropped, he raised his head and sighed deeply, and picked up the drawings again to go around to supervise the work.
On the second day, Huo Yunqian was still soaking in the workshop, and it wasn't until Chengfeng Restaurant sent someone to call her that she went back to the restaurant in a daze.
On the way, she was even thinking, isn't Xu Hui, a bastard, picking on a child halfway?
So who accompanies her to deliver food?
Returning to the restaurant with a heavy heart, the shopkeeper had already recognized this girl who was famous in Yancheng and even Kaizhou yesterday, and greeted him with a smile: "Girl, the eldest brother who came with you that day left a letter for you, telling you to see it as soon as you come back." β
There is no need to look at it, Huo Yunqian can also guess what the content is.
She opened the letter with a gloomy face, glanced at it cursoryly, and let out a soft "huh".
Xu Huo did return to Beijing alone because he was worried about the affairs of Beijing, but in order to help her transport grain, he specially arranged a henchman to respond, hoping that she would bear with her.
Confidant...... Could it be that he chased a henchman who came from the capital for a few days?
Huo Yun grinned, who knows if this confidant is really willing to help her?
Especially, she just wants someone who can accompany her to Liangzhou, is that person willing to take on this sudden job?
Looking at the letter paper for a while, Huo Yunqian was suddenly awakened by the soft reminder of the shopkeeper, and calmly put away the letter paper.
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "That big brother told us, and now the person who came to replace him has arrived, girl, look-"
Huo Yunqian turned his head, but saw a person who was almost lying on the table and burying his head in the bowl after eating, and he couldn't see his face clearly at all.
The corners of Huo Yunqian's mouth twitched, and the shopkeeper saw that the situation was wrong, so he hurriedly explained with a smile: "When this master first came, he said that he was hungry, so the little ones took it upon themselves to serve him food first." By the way, the eldest brother said that the girl didn't eat either, so it was better to sit down and eat together. β
Don't say it, don't think it, as soon as the shopkeeper said this, Huo Yunqian's stomach cooperated with a "goo~~", which was long and long.
I only ate half a naan last night, and I barely drank two mouthfuls of porridge this morning, and I really couldn't hold it at noon.
Huo Yunqian endured his anger and sat down in front of the person who was immersed in eating, and casually pointed out the menu.
Hearing the movement on the other side, the visitor raised his head from the bowl and smiled at her, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth.
Oh, it's just out of the coal mine.
Huo Yunqian was not angry in his heart, and he also sneered, and took advantage of the gap between Xiao Er and turning to the back kitchen and whispered: "It seems that the treatment of the Qin Wangfu is not very good, and everyone eats here." β
The dirty "black" man licked his chopsticks, shook his head and said, "If he hadn't said it, I wouldn't have rushed back from Liangzhou." β
The voice sounded very young, and it seemed that it should be the guards of the Qin Palace.
And so on β
ββ¦β¦ Liangzhou? Huo Yunqian almost couldn't control himself and stood up, looking at him with surprise and joy, "What's going on over there, how is General Huo?" β
The "black" boy waved his hand and pointed to the bowl in front of him.
Huo Yunqian had to hold back the eagerness in his heart, and called Xiao Er to add two more dishes.
Seeing that the young man opposite was eating vigorously, Huo Yunqian suddenly understood something, and his heart couldn't help but sink slowly.
This person came from Liangzhou, even if he was in a hurry, he would not be hungry like this.
It seems that Liangzhou is indeed in danger of running out of food, and she must make things as soon as possible and send the grain to Liangzhou!
The dishes were quickly served, Huo Yunqian was a little unaware, he ate a few bites at random, tasted something each, turned his head and called Xiao Er to settle today's meal money, and then went out after a few more words.
"Heyβ" The young man had just finished eating a large plate of chicken, and before he could put down the plate, he saw that she got up and went out, and hurried to chase her.
The shopkeeper stepped over to stop him, and said with a smile: "This young master, the girl has ordered, let you take a shower and change your clothes quickly." She's in the workshop, and she won't lose it. β
"Yes...... I don't know what her name is. The young man touched his head, blaming the prince, the letter was so short, and he didn't get to the point.
The shopkeeper smiled and waved his hand to chase him, "Isn't it Miss Xu!" That's how she got her name when she stayed at the hotel. β
That's the royal family name, if it's the county lord, can he not know it?
The young man grinned, and he didn't bother with the shopkeeper anymore, smelled the smell of his body, and hurriedly turned his head and went to the bathhouse.
