Chapter Twenty-Three: Uncle, I Don't Know You
Since separating from Xiang Liang's uncle and nephew, Xiao Ling began a solo journey into ancient times.
She didn't know the way, like a headless fly, relying on asking all the way, and moving forward at a rapid pace.
Fortunately, she has enough silver taels so that it will not be more difficult, but she still doesn't understand the sinister nature of the rivers and lakes when she first enters the rivers and lakes.
She still doesn't understand the truth that wealth is not exposed, so she doesn't know that she unintentionally revealed herself and made herself a target in the eyes of others.
Xiao Ling, who was excitedly strolling through the lively market, didn't notice that an unkempt man behind him had followed him all the way.
Seeing Xiao Ling concentrating on the exquisite little things in the stall, the man suddenly stepped forward and dragged Xiao Ling's burden and ran forward desperately.
Xiao Ling felt that the burden on his arm was snatched away, that fire!
She was left here alone, and she was abandoned by others, which was already quite lonely and pitiful, and this damn thief still dared her attention and robbed her of her things.
Xiao Ling, who was furious, didn't shout either, he had practiced anyway! She chased after him for a while, then caught up with the thief, grabbed him by the clothes and threw him to the ground, her legs pressed against his chest.
snatched his own baggage fiercely, and said angrily while hitting him with the baggage, "Dead thief, dead thief, dare to steal my things, look for death!" Go to hell! ”
In fact, Xiao Ling just wanted to vent his anger, and the strength in his hands was not great, it was like a massage, and he couldn't hurt anyone at all.
When she was deflated, she stood up, patted the dust off her body, and prepared to leave, but she took a step and retreated.
Glancing at the poor man on the ground, the man thought she was going to hit someone again, so he immediately held his head with both hands and shrank back.
"Don't worry, I won't beat you anymore, it's not easy for you, it's just that stealing things is not a good thing after all, don't steal again in the future, you're lucky to meet me." Saying that, Xiao Ling took out a piece of money from his baggage that he exchanged for jewelry from the cave, squatted down and put it in the man's hand, and said, "I also have my own suffering, so I can only help you get here!" ”
After doing all this, she stood up and left in style, turning around and not seeing the strange look in the eyes of the man on the ground looking at her back.
Xiao Ling's mood was not affected by this sudden episode, he was still in a state of excitement, strolling around excitedly, and he was hungry while shopping, Xiao Ling found a tavern at random to prepare for dinner.
The proprietress who had just walked into the tavern came to greet her, "Childe, what do you want to eat?" ”
Xiao Ling looked at the thirty or forty-year-old but graceful tavern proprietress and said in embarrassment, "Sister, it's the first time I've come here, and I don't know what to eat, so you can recommend it to me!" ”
The proprietress was coaxed by Xiao Ling's title so much that her eyes narrowed into a line, and her mouth could barely close, "Childe is not only handsome, but also has such a sweet mouth, or my sister will serve you a few of my sister's specialty dishes." ”
Xiao Ling replied with a smile, "Okay, thank you, sister." ”
Xiao Ling doesn't smile often, but when she laughs, it will make a man fall for her, and now it has become men's clothing, but such a smile has an effect on a woman's body.
The proprietress is a widow. Woman, who has been widowed for many years, was fascinated by Xiao Ling's smile, and went to the backyard of the tavern with a slightly red face.
Xiao Ling sat quietly in the tavern and waited for the proprietress to serve the food, and did not find a man in his thirties or forties walking into the tavern, he looked around and seemed to have found something and walked straight into the tavern.
As soon as he walked into the tavern, the people in the place he passed by all dodged when they saw him, and he didn't care about these people and walked straight to Xiao Ling's table.
"Brother is you, when did you come to Pei County, and you didn't inform my brother." The man said to himself and sat down opposite Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling looked at the suddenly extra person on the other side, and then looked around him and found that there was no one else, so he pointed to himself and asked suspiciously, "Are you talking to me?" ”
"Why, brother, don't you know me?"
"Should I know you?" Xiao Ling was inexplicable.
"I'm Liu Ji! You don't know me anymore?" The man explained positively.
"I don't know, I'm sorry, uncle, you recognized the wrong person." Xiao Ling affirmatively denied the words of the old man who was casually accosting in front of him.
"Liu Ji, you're cheating again!" At this time, the proprietress brought a few dishes and a pair of dishes and chopsticks, and said unhappily when she saw the man.
From the words of the proprietress, Xiao Ling probably understood that this was an old liar who cheated on eating and drinking, and Xiao Ling no longer ignored him and ate by himself.
"What are you talking about? I'm going to talk to my little brother and buy me a pair of chopsticks. Liu Ji decided to finish speaking, and after speaking, a magic grasp also took the opportunity to grab the boss's ass.
"Old stream. Hooligans", Xiao Ling sneered in his heart and quickly stopped the proprietress who was about to go to the kitchen, "Sister, don't go and get it, I don't know this uncle, I don't like to eat with people I don't know, don't lick the dishes and chopsticks." ”
The proprietress was embarrassed, it was not the first time that Liu Ji had come to her tavern to cheat and cheat, but those guests did not directly refuse him, and she turned a blind eye to no one to offend, but today this little boy refused so obviously, she really didn't know what to do.
"Little brother, I ......" Liu Ji probably hit a wall for the first time, and he had to save something first.
"Uncle, I'm going to eat, can you move if there is a vacant space next to me." Xiao Ling didn't give him a chance, and pointed to the empty table not far away to drive away the guests directly.
Liu Ji lost face and no longer insisted on scolding and leaving, "What's the big deal, isn't it just a few broken vegetables?" He has developed the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, and what he wants. ”
The other people in the store who had been deceived by him on weekdays also quietly clapped their hands when they saw Liu Ji's embarrassment, while Xiao Ling continued to eat his own food as if nothing had happened.
At this time, the discussion from an unknown corner of the store attracted Xiao Ling's attention.
"Look at this Liu Bang, he usually cheats and abducts and cheats everything, but today I feel relieved when I look at him." One person said.
"That's it! I don't do anything serious for a day, I want to fly Huang Tengda, and I have the opportunity to get him in that round! "There was a man who echoed it,
"I don't know what Old Man Lu thinks, there are so many people in Pei County, and his daughter is so beautiful, but he is cheaper." Someone said regretfully.
......
A series of conversations came into Xiao Ling's ears, there were too many specifics, and finally two words were synthesized and left in his mind: "Liu Bang".
Could it be that Han Gaozu Liu Bang? Then why do you call him Liu Ji again? But Pei County, the surname Lu is so consistent.
In the end, Xiao Ling was thundered by his own thoughts, that old man, old liar, old rook. The hooligan is actually the founder of the Han Dynasty and the big winner of the troubled times at the end of the Qin Dynasty, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty - Liu Bang.
