Chapter 36: A Visitor
Usually, it should be a little embarrassing to eavesdrop on someone who has been caught.
Qian Qianqian originally thought so, but who expected Xiao Mohan to look straightforward, and admit it very cheerfully, "General Ben is listening openly." ”
Qian Qianqian was speechless for a while, feeling that the general was thick-skinned, but it was not easy to say it directly, so she knocked on the side and said, "The general might as well go and see how the wall over there is repaired." She also took the opportunity to compare his face and wall thicker.
This kind of modern talent knows how to hide stalks, Xiao Mohan doesn't know. He looked at Qian Qianqian suspiciously for a long time, and finally said, "Are you ordering me?" ”
Qian Qianqian flatly denied it, "I'm just afraid that they will not do what the general wants, after all, you still have to live here for a while." ”
Xiao Mohan didn't believe this statement from the bottom of his heart, he looked at Qian Qianqian's seemingly absent smile on her face, and always felt that she had some bad ideas in her heart.
Qian Qianqian saw that he hesitated, and said, "If the general doesn't go, I'll go." ”
Xiao Mohan was stunned, Qian Qianqian had already gone to meet Liu Han and a few others.
No, he seemed to have originally planned to ask Qian Qianqian's sweetheart who it was, but he completely forgot about it.
Did this girl do it on purpose?
However, it is too obvious to start talking now, Xiao Mohan looked at a few people, and at the same time thought about how to prove that Qian Qianqian had ideas about herself from other aspects.
His gaze finally fell on Liu Han.
Is it a good way to give gifts? As long as the other party accepts, is it interesting?
Xiao Mohan's thoughts, Qian Qianqian didn't know, she was now full of thoughts about how to face Liu Han in the future, he made such a fuss, she didn't even have the heart to go next door to ask for help.
In this world, any debt can be repaid, only love debt is the most difficult to repay, and the last thing Qian Qianqian wants to owe is also love debt.
She thought about it all morning and still had no result, and after a while, it was time to eat, and she was about to ask Xiao Mohan what she wanted to eat as usual, but she didn't find anyone in the courtyard.
What's the situation? The first person to shout hungry on weekdays disappeared when he arrived at the meal, and when he left and where he went, Qian Qianqian didn't know at all.
"Sister, we can't lose the general, right?" Qian Xuan is timid and used to thinking about things in a bad place.
"He's fine with a big living person, and he survived the battle on the battlefield." Qian Qianqian was more inclined to this big Buddha who didn't know what he was thinking about suddenly had some thoughts, and he made up his mind temporarily.
"Why don't we cook first and then wait for him to come back?" Qian Qianqian spoke to the whole family, and Qian's mother walked over with little relief, "Are you really sure it's okay?" ”
"Mother, don't worry." Qian Qianqian said firmly, "If there is really something, the general can't solve it, and we can't do it either." ”
Mother Qian nodded at this time, and reflexively went to beckon the others to eat.
Half a pillar of incense, the meal is ready. Qian Qianqian also found an opportunity to take out the duck eggs promised before from the space, and just as a few people were about to sit down, they heard movement outside the door.
Everyone followed the voice, and when they turned around to look, they saw that the leader was Xiao Mohan, who was dressed in black and had no traces of torn shoulders, so he should have bought a new one.
It turns out that you can't stand the torn clothes?
lost Qian Qianqian, thinking that he had something big and had no time to explain.
Her face sank, "Why didn't the general go out and say nothing?" "Don't you know that the whole family will be waiting for you?
Seeing this, Xiao Mohan was a little more determined in his thoughts, and he stepped forward and said, "Send it in." ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw a group of soldiers walking in, they were in groups of two, with bamboo poles on their bodies, and under the bamboo poles were a large box with lipstick gold lacquer.
"Put it in the center." Xiao Mohan pointed to a vacant lot in the courtyard and ordered, and immediately looked at Qian Qianqian, "Come here." ”
Qian Qianqian pointed at herself, "Me? ”
Xiao Mohan was noncommittal, "Open." ”
Qian Qianqian didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, so he walked up suspiciously and opened the box.
There's a cave in there.
At first glance, the box is only square and nothing special, but the moment it is opened, the built-in carved woodcut shelves inside are scattered like flowers, and I thought that only one layer of the inner lining was divided into several layers, just like the kind of double-layer pencil case that Qian Qianqian used when she was a child It's just that she didn't know that there would be one here.
And the layers of wooden planks are neatly stacked with hairpin rings, hairpins, bracelets, and all kinds of women's hairpins.
"General, this is?"
"Pick one if you like." Xiao Mohan had a smile on his face, but Liu Han, who was eating during the banquet, was a little embarrassed, thinking about his scene in the morning, it really couldn't be compared with the pomp in front of him, no wonder Qianqian couldn't look down on it.
When Qian Qianqian boarded, the second monk was puzzled, "What does this mean?" ”
Xiao Mohan stepped forward and his eyes crossed over Liu Han, "Seeing that you are not interested in the hairpin ring you brought back last time, I said that I would like to thank you." ”
"I also said that it doesn't have to be like this, the general saved me, I owe you" Qian Qianqian's words were about to be rotten, but the other party was completely inappropriate, and he didn't listen to half a word.
Of course, he is a general, and he listens to others less and others to himself more. It's no wonder that it has been arbitrary to this point.
"Since I am your benefactor, do you have to listen to whatever you say?" Xiao Mohan hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled.
Is there still such a benefactor in the world?
Qian Qianqian smiled helplessly, "Didn't the general order me to choose these hairpin rings, right?" ”
"Just one thing." Xiao Mohan made a concession.
Qian Qianqian took into account Liu Han and the opinions of the people present in her heart, and said angrily, "The general is really joking, these are really wasteful for me to be a village woman, so it's better to go back and give them to the beauty." ”
Qian Qianqian prevaricated repeatedly, Xiao Mohan couldn't hold her face, and approached her, "Do you want to fight me?" ”
Qian Qianqian sneered and lowered her voice, "It's the general who made fun of me, someone gave me something in the morning, I didn't ask for it, do you have to let me take it now, embarrassing Brother Liu Han?" ”
Xiao Mohan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, "That's what you think?" ”
Is this person's EQ so low? How could there be such a direct question?
Qian Qianqian slandered in her heart, but she didn't say anything, she is not a person who doesn't understand the world, Liu Han is present, so she can't continue to talk about this matter.
But as the master, who can she drive? Xiao Mohan or someone else? The situation is awkward.
On the other side, Xiao Mohan saw from Qian Qianqian's attitude that her sweetheart was not herself, and she couldn't help but rise with a low aura around her, which overwhelmed the people around her.
His sharp gaze looked at everyone one by one, which was full of the intention of expelling, and he had something to say in his heart not to say unpleasant.
Everyone also knew each other, quickly ate a good meal, and left one after another, leaving only Qian Qianqian and Xiao Mohan.
They stared at each other for a long time, and Qian Qianqian broke the silence first, "Even if I didn't think so, it's hard for you to make people think like this, General." ”
Xiao Mohan looked at her quietly, after a while
Dao, suddenly leaned over, his fiery gaze was angry, "There is no clear understanding between you and me." ”
Qian Qianqian's heart palpitated for a while, staring at Xiao Mohan's face, "If you really want to calculate it, you can still calculate it." The gaze in her eyes was firm and unshakable.
Xiao Mohan's brows deepened, "I don't see you and Liu Han thinking so much." ”
Liu Han......
Qian Qianqian pondered for a while, "The general is different from him. ”
He approached half a step, "What's the difference?" "Aren't they all people outside of your heart?
"He's always lived here, and he's probably not going to leave in the future. There are always times when we help each other, and we owe and we also pay back. But the general will leave at any time, and how will I deal with myself then? Qian Qianqian was also annoyed by Xiao Mohan, and said everything in her heart.
"So that's why you have to settle everything with me for this reason?" Xiao Mohan had an impulse in his heart, and wanted to ask, "If I don't leave, what will happen to you?" ”
However, as soon as this idea came out, Xiao Mohan was startled at the moment, he was a little confused, obviously he only planned to use Qian Qianqian to lure out the spy at the beginning, but now not only is he dragging his injuries, but even the matter of the spy has been put on hold, could it be that he is really reluctant to give up on the life of Qianjia Village?
Qian Qianqian nodded, not seeing all the abnormalities after Xiao Mohan, "Actually, I also know that I owe a lot to the general, and everything is related to human life, but if I owe it again, I really don't know what I have to pay back." ”
She paused for a moment and then said, "If I only accept it and not think about how to be grateful, it will be another kind of torture." ”
Xiao Mohan looked at the woman's serious face, and was about to open his mouth to say something, when a sharp female voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"You say, is it a coincidence that we have come? Just about to come to see Qianqian, just catch up with the meal, Meng'er, come and see your cousin. ”
Just with this tone, Qian Qianqian didn't have to look at it to know that the person who came was her aunt who she hadn't seen for many days, but she didn't expect that her cousin - Qian Meng would come with her.
At this moment, she was dressed in coarse linen, but she held the only silk handkerchief in the house, wearing the hairpin of the family heirloom, and the smell of cheap rouge gouache was full of her, and she could smell it from afar.
Qian Qianqian made no secret of her disdain for the two mothers and daughters, "What are you doing here?" There are no extra meals to entertain at home. ”
However, because of what happened just now, Liu Han and the others left without eating much, and now there are still a lot of things left on the table.
"Qianqian, this is your fault." The eldest aunt pointed to the table, "How?" Is it reluctant to give up your family's delicious food? ”
When she said this, her eyes were not staring at the food, but at Xiao Mohan. No matter how cold Xiao Mohan's eyebrows were, she didn't see it, and the whole person leaned forward, "General, slave family......" She had just done half of the salute but suddenly pushed Qian Meng forward, pulling her daughter to salute again.
"The slave family brought the little girl Qian Meng to meet the general, the general is good."
Qian Meng looked at Xiao Mohan shyly, and after finishing Li, he didn't wait for the eldest aunt to hint at anything, and walked directly to Xiao Mohan's side, "General, can I sit?" ”
"No, you can't." "No, you can't!"
Two rejections came out at the same time, one was naturally from Xiao Mohan, and the other was ...... It's Qian Qianqian.
