Chapter 500 and Chapter 72 Out of the City
The old couple didn't seem to be in a hurry, and walked tremblingly all morning, and finally didn't even go out of the street. Seeing that it was already noon, although it was not summer, but the sun above his head was still shaking uncomfortably, the old man who had been pulling the old woman's boring calloused hands, his forehead was already covered with fine sweat, looking at a noodle restaurant on the street, swallowing saliva.
"Old woman, let's eat a bowl of Yangchun noodles before leaving?"
The old woman looked around with her chaotic eyes open, apparently unable to see anything, sniffed her nose, and nodded.
The old couple sat at the wooden table in front of the noodle stall and ordered a bowl or two of Yangchun noodles, and the old man took out a plain cloth handkerchief to wipe the old woman's hands, but his right hand always held the old woman's left hand, and never let it go.
The proprietress of the noodle stall was a little chubby, usually a flamboyant and domineering person, and when she saw the old couple, she couldn't help but be polite.
"Tsk! You guys have such a good relationship, it's strange to look at, the dead ghost of my family, when his feet don't touch the ground at noon, he doesn't know where he died! ”
The mouth and face are full of complaints and anger, but the work in hand is still so neat.
The one-foot-long chopsticks in the noodle pot stirred, and with a roll of his eyes, he added an extra white and slender noodle with chopsticks to each of the two bowls of noodles for the two old men.
The proprietress brought two bowls of noodles to the two old men, and deliberately glanced at the hands that the two people had been holding together.
"Tsk, it's so good to live at such an age, I'm so good! It's the first time I've seen it. ”
The old man didn't speak this time, and quietly helped his wife with chopsticks and bowls.
The old woman smiled and said, "We've been like this all our lives, and we're used to it." The precipitated hoarse tone seems to have the shyness of a girl, although an old face can't see the slightest beauty, but the slightly raised wrinkles look comfortable.
The proprietress also laughed, and there was no lack of envy.
"Envy! If a woman can live like this for the rest of her life, she won't want anything. ”
After listening to the boss's emotion, the old man's hand was stunned, and then he continued to help the old woman blow the steaming noodles in the bowl as if it had never happened.
"Seeing that you are not young, this is not a peaceful time, what are you going out to wander around? The soldiers on the street, if you touch you, you will be killed, and there is no place to reason. ”
The corner of the proprietress swept the corner of the street over a group of soldiers who had just walked by, and said in a low voice.
The old woman's face was a little bad and she sighed.
"It's just that the world is not peaceful, and we plan to leave here, find a quiet place, and in the last days, want to live a few days of peace."
When the words fell, he shook his head and said, "I don't know what is going on?" My eyes were blind a few years ago, and recently I have been listening to the fights and killings outside when I sleep at night, and I don't have a comforting sleep when I sleep. ”
The boss is a fast-talker, and her business has been a lot cold recently, and she has a lot of complaints in her heart.
"Now the emperor is unconscious, I heard that it is not good, the prince is missing, the third prince controls the government, if there is any disobedience, it will be ......" said, the hand holding the soup spoon in one hand measured his neck, looked around, and saw that no one noticed her move, he breathed a sigh of relief, and seemed to be bold again, and then said: "It is estimated that we are going to the capital to have civil strife, many people are leaving, you have to leave, let's leave quickly after eating noodles!" Otherwise, it may be too late. ”
The old woman was obviously frightened, and her hand holding the chopsticks trembled. The proprietress shook her head when she saw it, shut up and said no more, the business of the noodle stall was not good, she cursed a few more words, and turned back to the house.
It took the old couple a long time to finish the noodles in the bowl, get up and go together.
When they walked to the city gate, they were told that no one was allowed to go out of the city today, and even many people who went out of the city were detained, and the soldiers guarding the city gate saw the old couple and waved them away, so old people are estimated to not live for a few days in the cell, and they are not willing to do more evil.
"Looks like we can't go."
"If we can't leave, we'll go home, I really can't bear the old house we have lived in for a lifetime!"
The old couple was just about to leave hand in hand, but they were stopped.
"Stop!"
The old man took the old woman's hand, turned around slowly, and looked up, a tall horse sat a handsome man with an extraordinary temperament, the man was wearing a purple python robe, and at a glance he knew that he was either rich or expensive.
"Are you calling us?"
The old man asked, the old woman snuggled up to the old man's side and lowered her head, her hands were still a little trembling, and the old man reached out and patted the old woman's somewhat trembling hands comfortingly.
"Bold, don't kneel down when you see the third prince." The little eunuch standing in front of the third prince's horse pinched his throat and screamed accusatory.
When the old man heard this, he was obviously stunned, probably because he didn't expect to see such a big man in his life.
"Our old arms and legs ......," said the old woman, who was about to help him to kneel.
"Excuse me." At this time, Baili Asuni, who was sitting on the horse, spoke again, all the people in the Yishan Houfu last night disappeared overnight, so today he personally came to the city gate to arrest people, he knew that Shen Er Girl also went to the dragon vein, no matter what role she played in this competition, he had to grasp all the possibilities in the palm of his hand to feel at ease.
Looking at the old couple standing in front of him, he always felt that there was some peacekeeping, but when he said it, from the moment he stopped the old couple, his people told him about the old couple, but he still didn't feel at ease and sent someone to investigate, he wanted to see if there was such a couple in Shangjing who was so loving to the old age.
"You're going out of town?"
The old man nodded, and bowed his head as well.
"Why?"
Seeing that they didn't answer, the little eunuch in front of the horse shouted again: "The third prince asked, don't answer quickly." ”
Only then did the old man raise his head.
"We wanted to find a quiet place to spend a few quiet days."
Baili Asahi, who was riding on a tall horse, raised his eyebrows, squinted his eyes and asked coldly: "Oh, isn't this huge and prosperous Shangjing City bad?" ”
The old woman was probably frightened, and her trembling hands pulled the old man tightly and shook her head.
"Old man, let's go home!"
The old man rubbed the old woman's white hair soothingly, and said softly, "We'll go home in a while." ”
At this time, a soldier in military uniform on a big horse ran over, whispered a few words in the ear of the third prince, the third prince frowned, looked at the old couple on the side again with inexplicable eyes, and finally turned the horse's head, and turned around and left with the mighty people behind him.
"It turns out that there are really loving couples in this world, which is really rare."
Listening to the emotion of the three princes, none of the people behind him dared to speak out, now they are the three princes, and they may be the Ninety-Five Supreme who will sit on the throne in the near future, who dares to make a mistake?
