Chapter 315: Let's go together, so we can take care of it
315
It's the end of July.
Because Hu Dong can't go back to Stone Village often, Lan Xiaoqing usually runs at both ends.
Although he didn't say it in front of his family, the well-informed Lan Saburo faintly saw some doorways.
However, Lan Xiaoqing didn't go to see Hu Dong every time, and she always had to do some business.
But Hu Dong felt very sorry for Lan Xiaoqing.
In such a hot summer, of course he didn't want her to run outside all day.
So he went back to Stone Village by himself and made it much easier.
However, he didn't come back for a long time every time, and he had to travel early and late.
Lan Xiaoqing felt that he was much harder than herself, and she was unwilling to let him work so hard.
The two care and love each other, and their time together is always extra sweet.
This made Lan Xiaoqing feel that this scorching heat was not very difficult.
Thinking that the cool autumn is coming, her mood is even happier.
The stone village where Hu Dong returned yesterday, and there have always been thunderstorms and torrential rains in the past few days, so Lan Xiaoqing didn't go out again.
Instead, they nest at home to make eye masks, masks, earplugs, nasal congestion, etc.
These are all things she prepared for the Muxian exam.
On the other side, Hu Dong had already made mosquito repellent coils. She has tried the mosquito repellent herself, and the effect is good, and the taste is not very strong.
Now it's up to her to do the work at hand, but she's not a good worker, and the look she makes is not particularly exquisite.
Fortunately, this thing is only used during the exam, otherwise it will definitely be a shame to take it out.
Lan Xiaoqing originally wanted to bring these things to Mu Xian when he went to the county seat to deliver mung bean cakes.
However, she heard from Grandma Wang that Mu Xian would move back to Shicun from the county school at the end of the month.
Because the township test was held in early August, Mu Xian needed to go home early to pack his things.
Then we set off from Stone Village to Fucheng for the exam.
In order to thank the county master and the Zhao family for their help and care for Mu Xian, the Mu family planned to drive to the county seat to pick Mu Xian back.
On this day, Lan Xiaoqing is going to go to the county seat to deliver mung bean cakes to the high point shop.
And recently, she has not been idle at home, and she has made sour jujube cake with sweet potatoes and sour dates from the mountains, which is also quite popular.
The two families met on the way to the county seat.
Grandma Wang also followed this time, and she saw that the Lan family's donkey cart shed was simple.
Seeing that Lan Xiaoqing was much darker than before, he called her to his ox cart.
The two of them talking together can just relieve their boredom.
Grandma Wang chatted with Lan Xiaoqing, and there was no other topic except for his good grandson Mu Xian.
Lan Xiaoqing also likes to listen to some things when the male god was a child, so one of them talked energetically, and the other listened energetically, and they were very happy along the way.
At noon, the group arrived at the county seat.
Grandma Wang and the others rushed to pick up Mu Xian, so they didn't have lunch with Lan Xiaoqing and them.
After Lan Xiaoqing Lan Saburo filled his stomach, he went to the pastry shop to deliver the goods.
The shopkeeper of the pastry shop had obviously been waiting for them for a long time.
As soon as he saw Lan Xiaoqing, he greeted him.
Very enthusiastic: "Oh, little brother Lan, I finally looked forward to you." ”
Lan Xiaoqing still dresses up as a boy when she goes out to this day, and she doesn't deliberately find out her identity, so the shopkeeper of the pastry shop doesn't know that she is actually a little girl.
She stepped forward with a smile: "Why is the shopkeeper so polite today?" Is it a fortune? ”
Lan Xiaoqing's words were very festive, and the shopkeeper smiled even more in his ears.
"Hahaha, I don't dare to talk about making a fortune, but there is indeed some small money. I don't know if you're interested, little brother Lan? ”
As soon as Lan Xiaoqing heard this, her eyes immediately lit up.
"Why do you still have my share in this good thing of getting rich?"
"That's nature!" The shopkeeper of the pastry shop smiled and said, "This thing really can't be done without you." ”
"Oh? The shopkeeper is talking about it. Lan Xiaoqing smiled happily.
"Come, come in and sit, let's sit and talk."
Lan Xiaoqing and Lan Saburo followed in.
After sending so many pastries to the pastry shop, this was the first time they had gone into their backyard.
The shopkeeper of the pastry shop didn't say much nonsense, and said straight to the point: "That's the case, I have a distinguished guest." He is very satisfied with the mung bean cake you made. These days he was going to have a feast at home.
I wanted to supply him, but I heard him mean that I wanted to bring the pastry maker with me. You also know that it's hot now, and it is easy for good pastries to go bad.
But the ones you invite are all ups and downs and some big people with heads and faces, so you can't tolerate the slightest mistake. ”
Lan Xiaoqing immediately understood: "In other words, how many days does this distinguished guest want to hire me?" ”
"That's what it means, but don't worry, he promises a very good pay."
Lan Xiaoqing smiled: "It's very rich, how thick is it?" ”
The high point was unconventional, and he immediately stretched out a hand and gestured.
Lan Xiaoqing's pupils widened, and she said excitedly: "So many, then I'm really lucky." ”
"He is a big family with a head and a face in the city, and he is generous and generous."
"Fucheng?" Lan Saburo interjected at this time, "That means you're going to go to Fucheng?" ”
"Not bad. But don't worry, I'll be responsible for the cost of the round-trip carriage. ”
"It's not about the fare." Lan Saburo frowned, "It's just that my Lan Qing has never been far away, and his father and I are not at ease." ”
"Well," the shopkeeper of the pastry shop seemed to have thought about it for them, "if you don't feel at ease, you can also accompany your little brother to Fucheng." ”
Lan Saburo still frowned, he wanted to go, but he couldn't leave the house, so he glanced at Lan Xiaoqing.
Lan Xiaoqing also understood the third uncle's concerns.
And the security of this era is no better than the peaceful society she has lived in before.
She is still a little worried about her own safety, but if she has a third uncle or a cheap father by her side, it will be different.
"So be it, shopkeeper." Lan Xiaoqing thought for a while and said, "I don't know if you can let me think about it first." ”
"Of course." The shopkeeper said, "But you can't delay it too long, it's best tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, because in two days the distinguished guests will leave for the city." ”
"No problem, I will definitely give the shopkeeper an answer within two days."
Lan Xiaoqing and the shopkeeper settled the payment for today's pastry and left the pastry shop.
Lan Saburo asked her: "Fucheng is so far away, don't go." ”
"But the city is so big, I want to see it." Lan Xiaoqing's eyes showed a look of anticipation, "Third uncle, have you been to Fucheng?" Is Fucheng fun? ”
"You, more than a dozen people, are still so playful." Lan Saburo said and sighed, "It's lively, but if you don't have money, you can't afford anything." ”
"Third uncle, although what you said makes sense, it's too negative, the poor also have the poor to play!."
Lan Xiaoqing touched her chin: "Besides, aren't I just going to make money this time?" Or you can come with me. ”
"I'll accompany you to the mung bean cake, so who will deliver this mung bean cake? And the work at home, your father can't be busy alone.
I heard that the shopkeeper was gone for a few days, and if neither of us were at home, your father would not be able to do it alone. ”
"What's wrong with that? Mung bean cake is actually made by small flowers. It's perfectly okay to leave the pig's trotter business to Daddy alone.
Hire a car or ask that one for help. It should work too. ”
Lan Saburo glanced at Lan Xiaoqing: "Do you really want to go to Fucheng so much?" ”
"Yes, it's rare that someone reimburses the round-trip fare."
"Okay, let's go back and discuss with your father first, but we have to obey the majority of the minority, I don't approve of it, it depends on what your father says."
Lan Xiaoqing is confident, and Cheap Dad will definitely fulfill her wishes!
Haha, Fucheng, I'm here.
Lan Saburo looked at his niece's elated appearance, and couldn't help but be driven by her happy mood, and the corners of his mouth curled.
I thought that when I got home, I would discuss with my second brother how to arrange all the work.
Mu Xian then took a little private money and took his niece to Fucheng to play a trick.
If it weren't for the family's business, it would be a great thing to call the second brother to go with him.
……
Coincidentally, Lan Xiaoqing and Lan Saburo met the Mu family as soon as they arrived at the city gate.
Originally, the Mu family was some distance away from them, and they would not easily find out.
However, there was too much movement over there, and the noise attracted the attention of many people.
Lan Saburo, you can't help but poke your head out and take a look.
Lan Xiaoqing was curious and a little worried at the same time, so she asked Lan Sanlang:
"In front of the third uncle, there are Grandma Wang and Brother Mu Xian, what's wrong with them? What's going on? ”
"Nothing happened, except they seem to have a dog with them."
Lan Saburo stood up and looked at it again, and confirmed: "Yes, it seems to be a pure white dog." It should be that they wanted to put the dog in the car, but the dog was probably quite scared before he had never been in the car, so he kept jumping down, scaring pedestrians on the side of the road. ”
"It turned out to be Xiaoping."
"What Xiaoping?"
"It's the white dog, and its name is Xiaoping."
"Xiaoping?" Lan Saburo pursed his lips, "This is the name that gave this dog, which is less reliable than your little wolf." ”
Lan Xiaoqing laughed, indeed, it is quite unreliable.
The two didn't say anything more, and Lan Saburo drove the donkey cart forward.
When their donkey cart arrived next to the Mu family's ox cart, the dog named Xiaoping was finally settled.
But I don't know what's going on, as soon as it sees Lan Xiaoqing, it starts barking non-stop.
Before the two families could say hello, the Mu family looked at Lan Xiaoqing together.
But Lan Xiaoqing only has a male god in his eyes.
It seems like I haven't seen each other for more than half a month to a month, right?
I feel like the male god's face has thinned again.
But the silhouette is deeper and more charming!
Anyway, no matter what, the male god is the most handsome and handsome in the world!
"Okay, Uncle Dog, don't bark, it's not like you haven't seen this person."
Mu Ping's head hurt from the dog's barking, and he really didn't want to hear it anymore.
But the dog seemed to be at odds with him, and he just wouldn't listen to him. Not only that, but the more you scream, the more fierce it becomes.
This movement made Lan Xiaoqing have to withdraw her gaze from Mu Xian.
Mu Xian smiled at Lan Xiaoqing, touched the dog's head with one hand, and said to Lan Xiaoqing.
"Long time no see."
His eyes are clear, his voice is melodious, and his appearance is a new peak every day, and he is really a god.
Lan Xiaoqing was excited in her heart: "Yes, yes, I haven't seen you for a long time." Is Brother Mu Xian okay lately? ”
"I'm fine, what about you? Looks like I'm getting a tan. ”
"I'm fine too. Tanned healthily. "I haven't spoken to the male god for a long time, and Lan Xiaoqing became cramped for a while.
Seeing that she was a little flustered, Mu Xian couldn't help but bend his lips and smile.
As soon as he smiled, Lan Xiaoqing's heartbeat missed half a beat, and he stood in his donkey cart without any movement.
Lan Saburo thought she had fallen for evil and shouted at her twice.
That's when she came to her senses.
It is also strange to say that the dog, which was originally called very fierce, immediately quieted down after being touched by Mu Xian.
Lan Xiaoqing also completely regained herself and began to speak normally and methodically.
"I heard that Brother Mu Xian is going to Fucheng to take the exam soon."
"Yes, the ninth day of August. There is less than half a month to go. ”
"The ninth day of August." Lan Xiaoqing repeated this day again, and then turned around and muttered to Lan Saburo in a low voice.
After Lan Saburo finished speaking, Lan Xiaoqing laughed: "That's really a coincidence, Brother Muxian, I was also in Fucheng just a few days ago." ”
"What are you doing in Fucheng?" This was asked by Mu Ping, and he was really curious.
"I took over the pastry business, and they wanted me to come over to be a pastry chef, and that family happened to be in Fucheng."
Mu Ping sighed and asked again, "Then are you alone?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that his cousin had taken a look at him.
But he didn't feel that he had said anything wrong, and he suddenly didn't know why.
Lan Xiaoqing replied to his words: "I'm the only one who makes pastries, but I don't feel at ease when I go to the third uncle alone, so it may be that the third uncle will accompany me over." ”
Mu Ping got the answer, oh, and the rest didn't dare to say anything more, for fear that he would inexplicably offend his cousin again.
Mu Xian said: "Since the time is about the same, we can be together, and we can take care of it on the road." ”
"Yes, yes!" Lan Xiaoqing agreed without thinking about it, "This couldn't be better." When the time comes, I'll make my pastries, and Brother Muxian, you'll take your exam. When you finish the exam, you will have fragrant pastries to eat. ”
"What a good boy, always thinking about your brother Muxian." The old Wang on the side also spoke.
"Where, mainly Grandma Wang and Grandpa Mu, as well as Brother Muxian, are usually very good to me, I can only call it a return."
Thousands of wears, but sycophants don't wear. Especially when the male god was present, Lan Xiaoqing picked up good words.
Mu Ping snorted and muttered quietly, "Am I not good to you?" ”
"Okay, good, okay."
This time, because there were many people on the ox cart, Lao Wang did not invite Lan Xiaoqing to sit with him.
And because the road is narrow, it can't accommodate two cars driving side by side.
Lan Xiaoqing had to stare at the back of the male god silently.
But it's enough to just look at the back of the male god.
Ahh Can't get enough of it anyway.
