Under Yu Yan's deterrence, Bi Chengen and his entourage left overnight after compensating for the loss of the inn.

Of course, Uncle Qi, who has excellent acting skills, after receiving the final payment from them tremblingly, asked people to chop the two roasted sheep into eight pieces each, wrap them in oil paper, and hand them over.

The freshly roasted mutton exudes the smell of the unique spices of the grassland, but for Bachengen and others, who were tired and hungry all the way, and were frightened, and had to hurry at night to avoid the other party's repentance, the fragrance of this roast sheep was an indescribable torture.

"How's that with someone?"

"If it weren't for the blessing of the two roast sheep, a few of us would have to be explained there!"

Touching his braided hair that was cut off by Qi Er, Bi Chengen's face was almost black to the bottom of the pot.

In Ningxia, braids are a man's pride, and winning a fight that is recognized by the public can only be made up, and being cut off is equivalent to permanent loss.

The one who was just cut down by Yu Yan happened to be the reward he won the first time he fought with others.

"Back to the young master, there is no fork in this road."

"The little ones are afraid that they will follow closely and arouse the other party's suspicions, who would have thought that they would be uneasy about the routine when they were on the road with their female dependents, and they would not stay in the evening."

The guards who were sent to follow Liu Qingxin and his party were already guilty because of the loss of their braids for causing Cheng En, and at this moment, he was reproached again, and his whole face suddenly turned red into a sugary sweet potato pulp.

"It's bad luck, too."

"The group I met, the evil star who didn't know where to come, and among the people who were the masters, there were also two girls who made trouble with this oolong."

The guard drove the horse forward and drove half of the horse's body, telling Bi Chengen about his grievances.

Seeing that he didn't mean to blame himself, he was a little relieved.

"The carriage they took was not as fast as we were when they traveled overnight."

"Let's hurry up, if we can catch up with them in the wilderness, we can save a lot of convenience."

Bi Chengen turned his head, glanced at the guards with guilt on his face, sighed, kicked the horse's belly with strength, and drove the mount to run quickly, "When I catch up with them, all the attendant guards are cut down, the younger one belongs to me, the older one and the maid, you take it to the forest to be happy, have had enough, remember to kill it." ”

suffered the previous "humiliation", and at this time, Bi Chengen was full of evil fire, and there was no place to vent.

He doesn't like the delicate and frail Central Plains women.

He felt that they were like lambs to the slaughter, and he couldn't get the slightest interest.

He likes hot-tempered prairie girls, and if they don't agree with each other, they can make their teeth tear a piece of flesh off the wolf cub.

Except, of course, willow freshness.

So far, his last wife and the only one who is "lucky" to be pregnant with his child in the Central Plains.

No, to be exact, she doesn't look like a Central Plains woman at all.

He was fiercer than the wolves of the steppe, stronger than the strongest wine he had ever drunk.

In the Central Plains, there are mostly red mansions, but Bi Chengen doesn't like women in the Central Plains, and since he left Ningxia, he has never been in or out of that kind of place.

When he was in Ningxia, the wives and concubines at home were not counted, and they had to go out to fight the "tooth sacrifice" in front of the common slaves, and no one dared to complain about half a word.

There are a few, in order to please them, to reduce the tax burden on the family, and will voluntarily tie up the handsome girls to send them to spoil, they are too playful, accidentally kill people, it is just to spend a few more dollars of silver, buy a few foals to pay others, and that's it.

Some such people, since they came to the Central Plains, began to live a life of no clear soup and little water, or a few months later, how could it be possible not to hold back their eyes?

At this time, as soon as he heard Bi Chengen say that when he caught up with those people, he wanted to reward two of them to them for enjoyment, so they all rubbed their hands.

Although, that girl is not pretty, but no matter how small the lice are, it is still meat, besides, don't you have that beautiful sister!

Affected by the "encouragement" of Bi Chengen, everyone rode their horses and whips one after another, speeding up their feet, as if even the roast sheep that was wafting the fragrance could no longer impress them.

……

Seeing off Bi Chengen and his party, Uncle Qi called the three juniors in the inn and began to clean the cups, plates and dishes in the front hall.

Before, Liu Qingxin had already explained to him that later, he would smash some utensils and let him pick up the tatters, and he wouldn't feel distressed if he broke them, and there happened to be a bunch of missing cracks in the inn, ready to be discarded.

I never thought that these things that should be lost or not were actually made back for the inn before they "died".

"They kept chasing after them, and when they realized that something was wrong, they turned around and came back."

"I guess I'll be back here in two days at the most."

After pouring a few bowls of tea into his stomach, Liu Qingxin regained some composure.

She grabbed two pieces, and Shen Wenlei went to the city to buy sesame candy in her hand, and explained to Uncle Qi while sending it to her mouth.

"When they come back, they will ask you if there are any similar people besides us."

"You tell him that not long after they left, a group of six people, three men and three women, came and listened, as if they were going somewhere to join their relatives."

"Among them, the older man also reproached the young girl, saying that she was playing too crazy in the city and delayed her journey, and if it weren't for good luck, she happened to meet someone who had left the room, and they would have to spend the night in the porter's room."

Stuffing the two pieces of sesame candy in his hand into his stomach in one go, Liu Qingxin picked up the tea cup on the table and poured a bowl of tea into his stomach.

She was suddenly a little happy.

Glad that he listened to Ling Jun's advice and didn't take Xiaobao back to Zhouzhuang together.

Otherwise, if Xiaobao heard the sound of smashing dishes and bowls, he would cry in fright, I am afraid that everything will be over.

Uncle Qi nodded in response, and repeated what Liu Qingxin told him carefully, before picking up the teapot again and filling the cup for her.

He didn't know why their family's light-hearted young lady suddenly changed her plan and used this way to take Bi Chengen and her party away for a short time, instead of making those people completely give up the idea of tracking the tail line as she explained before.

But it's one thing not to know, it's another thing to know.

He has been in the Shen family for decades and has been the shopkeeper of the inn for more than ten years.

During this period, the most useful way he realized was that the master's mind was always more careful than that of them, so not saying what should not be said, not asking what should not be asked, and not guessing what should not be guessed is the correct way to do errands.

"If they ask you where we are going, you can tell him and go in the direction of Yanjing."

Liu Qingxin took a deep breath. poured two more bowls of tea into her stomach, and when she was about to pour a third bowl, Shen Wenlei stopped her.

"It's so late, drink less tea and rest early."

"Let's set off tomorrow morning, and in the evening, we can go to Zhouzhuang."

"In Zhouzhuang, even if they come so many people, they won't be able to hurt you."

Shen Wenlei is aware of Liu's light-hearted past.

When he heard Bi Chengen report to his home, he knew that some plans had to be changed.

Fortunately, the rest of the official roads are good roads during the day, when business travel is intensive.

Tomorrow, they will be able to go all the way to Zhouzhuang without a break.

"Uncle Qi, let someone prepare some dry food and feed the horses."

"Tomorrow, as soon as the sky is bright, we will go to Zhouzhuang with the first batch of delivery convoys."

After all, Shen Wenlei is a person who has been an official in the DPRK for many years.

Previously, because he was too upright and serious, he was retaliated against by his opponents many times and put himself in danger.

In the face of the unfavorable situation, he was calm and calm, and just a few words calmed the tension of everyone present.

After sending Uncle Qi and Shen Mo out of the door, Shen Wenlei turned around and looked at Yu Yan, who was standing beside Liu Qingxin.

"Yan'er."

"Daddy, I don't know, where did you learn this skill?"

"But if you don't say it, Daddy will never ask."

"For Daddy, it is God's greatest gift that you can come back, and if you ask for too much, you will not be grateful."

With that, Shen Wenlei slowly walked to the table and pushed the sesame candy placed in the center of the table in front of Liu Qingxin and Yu Yan.

"And the light-hearted girl."

"From the time you call me my father, I will be your father."

"For this father, even if I Shen Wenlei do everything I can in my life, I will never shirk my responsibility as a father."

"I have heard a thing or two about the dangers you have experienced before."

"But I want you to know that even if your father is not as powerful as you, he also wants to be the lotus leaf umbrella that shelters you from the wind and rain, and if he is not broken to pieces, no one will be able to hurt you in the slightest."

Along the way from Yanjing, Shen Wenlei thought a lot.

About Liu Qingxin, about Yu Yan, about the Shen family.

He found that it was not as difficult as he thought to treat Liu Qingxin as his daughter and level a bowl of water.

She and the two of them look too much alike, and they are as similar as Liu Qingxin is really his eldest daughter who came back from the dead.

"Father is worried."

Liu's shoulders trembled unconsciously.

She slowly raised her head and looked at Shen Wenlei, who was standing across the table from him, and showed him the first smile since she heard the name "Bi Chengen".

"The so-called sinister way of the world is mostly caused by people's greed."

"Just be a little more cautious when you encounter something, and be a little less self-righteous when you are planning things, and you won't be in prison, and it's hard to get out."

After that, Liu Qingxin took a piece of sesame candy and put it in his mouth.

Sesame candy is sweet.

Although, when chewing, there is a slight taste of sesame paste, which is not as good as the most unpalatable dim sum made by gluttony.

But it's very much like what her master said, the smell of home, the warm smell of being protected by relatives.

Perhaps, this is the father.

Be quiet and silent when you are in trouble, and stand up when you are in trouble.
