Chapter 128: Shopping
Li Yun really did what he said this time, and detained Mingyue at home to recuperate, in the past few days, Mingyue has exhausted all kinds of means of being coquettish and cute, Li Yun didn't agree to Mingyue going out, and finally only went to Dalu Village to deliver medicine to her grandmother, and stayed obediently in the mountains the rest of the time.
There was nothing to do, so Mingyue took the rabbit fur that had been dried before, studied how to nitrate, or went to the laboratory to learn Chinese medicine with Lin Xiao, or wrote her chain hospital plan, anyway, she didn't let herself be idle from beginning to end.
Li Yun finally discovered that Mingyue was simply an idle person, and it was basically impossible for her to do nothing quietly, so she had to let her, as long as she didn't go out to run and didn't tire herself, Li Yun would be content.
After a few days, Mingyue's body finally recovered, and she began to pester Li Yun to go to the county seat, Li Yun had to nod and agree, and promised to go out the next day.
I got up early that day, had breakfast, and asked Li Yun to comb my hair in a bun, and went out with Li Yun.
In order to keep a low profile, Li Yun still smeared a layer of ash on his face, after all, he was always watched, and it didn't feel very comfortable, the bored Mingyue also used ink to point a big black mole on Li Yun's left face, seeing Mingyue so happy, Li Yun tossed it by her, but Mingyue who saw the black mole was a little disgusting, and just clicked it and tossed it off again.
After a lot of tossing, the two finally went out, Lin Xiao still stayed at home, and Mingyue also asked Lin Xiao if he wanted to go to the county seat, but Lin Xiao didn't seem to be very interested, and still liked to nest in the laboratory or feed his donkey.
When I got to the official road, I also had the opportunity to meet an ox cart going to the county seat, Mingyue had been to the county seat several times, the distance from here to the county seat, if it was not close on foot, the two walked forward on the official road, and it didn't take long to meet an ox cart going to the county seat.
There are a lot of people in the car, but they are still barely squeezed down by two people, although they are squeezed a little, but they are better than walking, if they miss this trip, they may not be able to meet again, after a little consideration, the two of them squeezed into the ox cart.
There were two women in the car, a girl, and an old man, and as soon as the two women saw Li Yunmingyue getting into the car, they smiled and teased, "Yo, this little couple is really handsome." ”
Li Yun still had a cold expression, and Mingyue reluctantly smiled at the two women opposite, and leaned towards Li Yun.
Next to her sat the old man, with a dry tobacco pouch in his mouth, taking a sip from time to time, mixed with the sour smell of sweat on his body, and the smoked Mingyue wanted to vomit.
In the end, Mingyue simply buried her head in Li Yun's arms, and the good smell from Li Yun's body finally overshadowed some of the mixed smell next to her.
The two of them acted so affectionately that the woman who was originally stunned because of Li Yun's cold face couldn't help but speak again, "It should be newlywed, right?" Looking at this sticky energy, I don't dare to look at it anymore. ”
The girl sitting in the back didn't dare to look outside with a red face, but she couldn't help but peek at it from time to time.
Mingyue and Li Yun didn't bother with the woman, Li Yun was completely too lazy to take care of it, and Mingyue was in no mood to take care of it at this time.
Seeing that neither of them heard and was generally silent, the woman also felt that it was not interesting to speak, and stopped talking, and if she had not heard them talking to the coachman first, the woman would have wondered if they were deaf and dumb.
Almost an hour later, the tortured "oxcart journey" finally came to an end, Mingyue was helped out of the oxcart by Li Yun, took a few deep breaths of fresh air, and finally felt that her breathing was smooth.
The carriage stopped near the city gate, and when Mingyue and Li Yun arrived at the city gate, Mingyue stared at the long line with wide eyes, and exclaimed speechlessly, "No, when are we going to line up?" ”
Li Yun took Mingyue's hand and did not line up at the back of the queue, but went directly to the city gate.
Mingyue said casually without knowing what she meant, "Don't line up?" You're not going to take me to break in, are you? ”
Li Yun didn't speak, just quietly pulled Mingyue to the door, and Mingyue had to let him pull it.
As soon as the two of them reached the door, the guard at the gate said to the two, "Go and line up over there." ”
I saw Li Yun take out a sign from his arms and light it up in front of the guard, the guard changed his attitude in an instant, and respectfully saluted Li Yun with a fist, "My lord, please." ”
Mingyue followed Li Yun into the city with a swagger, and as soon as she entered the city, Mingyue couldn't wait to ask, "What brand are you?" It works like this. ”
Li Yun lowered his voice and spoke softly, "Yan Jiu gave it." ”
Mingyue pursed her mouth, no wonder, it was so easy to come in.
The two stood at the gate of the city, and Li Yun asked, "Where are we going?" ”
Mingyue pulled Li Yun and walked forward directly, and said in her mouth, "Just go shopping, where is the excitement." ”
Every time I came to the county seat before, I had a clear purpose, and it was the first time I came here for shopping like this.
But Li Yunlai had a purpose, "Let's go buy quilts and jackets." ”
Mingyue looked east and west, picked the place she wanted to go, and responded, "Don't worry, let's go shopping first, and then buy it after shopping." ”
So Mingyue pulled Li Yun around the county, and the more crowded the place, the more he drilled there.
Of course, because of Li Yun's outstanding appearance, there will still be little girls who peek at Li Yun from time to time, but this county is no better than the countryside, seeing Li Yun's simple black skin, plus there is a little woman next to him, he will look at it at most twice, but there will always be some people, even if they do, they have to go up, and soon the two will meet.
Those shops and whatnot, it's nothing special, it's similar to the town, but it's a little more lively than the towns.
However, when she arrived at the door of the gambling house in the city, Mingyue couldn't move her legs, dragged Li Yun's arm, and said with a look of anticipation in her eyes, "Let's go in and have a look." ”
Li Yun helplessly explained, "Where did a woman enter the gambling house?" ”
Mingyue pointed to the middle-aged woman who had just come out of it with a depressed face, and said dissatisfiedly, "That's not a woman." ”
Li Yun couldn't help it, so he had to let Mingyue pull him into the gambling house.
As soon as I entered, I heard that the room was full of loud and small shouting noises, and there was a sour smell wafting inside, Mingyue covered her nose uncomfortably, Li Yun kept pulling Mingyue, there were people everywhere, for fear that Mingyue would bump into it, and when she saw Mingyue covering her nose, she seized the opportunity to dissuade her, "Since it's so uncomfortable, let's go out." ”
I've come in, how can Mingyue be willing to leave like this, so I have to see what these people are gambling on before leaving.
So Mingyue covered her nose and continued to walk inside.
The two of them wandered around the house, attracting all kinds of strange glances wherever they went, after all, there were very few women in this gambling house, let alone such a young and beautiful little lady.
There are also many people who want to flirt after seeing Mingyue, but when they saw Li Yun, who had a cold face and no expression on Mingyue's side, they all retreated and continued to gamble.
After a circle, Mingyue was a little disappointed, and greeted Li Yun next to her, "Let's go." ”
After walking around and not gambling money, the two left the gambling house together under the puzzled eyes of everyone.
When she went out, Mingyue whispered to Li Yun and said, "This gambling house is boring, just shaking the dice, in addition to the size, it is single and double, there are so many people." ”
Hearing Mingyue's complaints, Li Yun only sighed helplessly in his heart, isn't this the case in this gambling house.
The two continued to wander, and when they arrived at the door of a brothel, the women were far away, and they were reluctant to go from this side, Mingyue was good, so they stood not far away, staring intently at the door of several Qinglou women soliciting customers.
If it weren't for Mingyue being a woman, Li Yun would have wondered if Mingyue had fallen in love with the prostitute at the entrance of the Qinglou, and at the same time, Li Yun was also worried, Mingyue wouldn't have been curious about what it was like inside the Qinglou, and wanted to go in and have a look.
Seeing that Mingyue finally retracted her gaze, she said, "Let's go." Li Yuncai breathed a sigh of relief.
But Mingyue's next words made Li Yun almost fall to the ground, "It's a pity that I didn't wear men's clothes today, next time I must pretend to be a man and go in to have a look." ”
The two of them had been shopping for most of the hour, and they just walked to the door of a teahouse in front of them, where a few people were bustling and sitting, with a teapot in front of them, listening to a young man who looked like a scholar on the stage talking about a book.
Mingyue stopped and said, "I'm a little tired from walking, let's go in and sit down." ”
Li Yun nodded in agreement, "Let's go." Walking in front of Mingyue, I couldn't wait to enter the door, as long as I didn't go to those messy places, I was afraid that Mingyue would pick some strange places to drill in.
The two of them found a convenient place to read the man's storytelling, sat down, looked left and right, and saw the shopkeeper behind the counter come over in person and greeted with a smile, "What kind of tea do the two guest officers need?" We have the best Longjing Pu'er Biluo Spring ...... here."
Mingyue interrupted the shopkeeper to continue to read out the long list of names, and said, "Is there any flower tea?" ”
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Yes, there is jasmine tea." ”
Mingyue said, "Just jasmine tea." ”
The shopkeeper said, "Wait a minute, guest officer." So he went down, Mingyue began to listen to the storyteller on the stage about what general fought what Northern Regions, and Mingyue lost his mind when he listened.
Until Li Yun spoke to Mingyue, "The storyteller is finished, what else are you reading?" ”
Mingyue came back to her senses, and there was no one on the storytelling stage, and the only customers in the store were gone, leaving only herself and Li Yun.
At this time, the shopkeeper in the store came over with a tray, "Guest officer, the tea is here." ”
Mingyue already had an idea in her heart just now, and asked while the shopkeeper was pouring tea, "Shopkeeper, why is your store so deserted?" ”
