Chapter 247: The Capital Settles In

At this time, Ji Sisi was walking around the room with a nervous expression, and wanted to go to the door several times to see the situation, but she held back again.

When Li Qing said that she wanted to redeem her, her heart was indeed happy, but she also understood the nature of the old bustard, who was extremely greedy, but she was afraid that she would knock Li Qing hard, and her deed of sale was in her hands, so she couldn't say anything, I don't know if this matter can be done......

Just when Ji Sisi was a little anxious thinking here, he heard a knock on the door.

Immediately, there was a hint of joy in his eyes, he walked forward quickly to open the door, looked at Li Qing on his face, and said eagerly: "How is it?" ”

"Let's go in and talk." Li Qing sighed slightly, and walked into the room first, not forgetting to say to Ji Sisi.

Looking at Li Qing's reaction, Ji Sisi had a bad premonition in his heart, and followed him into the house and sat down opposite him.

"But Mom won't let me go with you? Or is she embarrassed you? Ji Sisi looked a little worried and asked the doubts in his heart.

Hearing this, Li Qing shook his head and sighed again, "She said that if she wants to redeem you from here, she will get five hundred taels of silver." ”

"Five hundred taels of silver?" Ji Sisi couldn't help but exclaim, although he had already prepared in his heart, he couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this number, how could a loyal and honest person like Li Qing get five hundred taels of silver, the old bustard was obviously embarrassing him.

"Hmm," Li Qing responded. told everything that happened just now, and at the end, he looked at Ji Sisi's somewhat embarrassed expression, and didn't forget to open his mouth to comfort: "Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to get this silver." ”

Hearing Li Qing's words, Ji Sisi shook his head slightly, turned his head and took out a box from his bedside and put it on the table, and said to him: "This is the silver I have saved over the years, you can see how much is still missing, and then we will find a way." ”

Ji Sisi's actions made Li Qing slightly surprised, and an inexplicable emotion crossed his heart, even if Ji Sisi was a Qinglou woman, but at another time, her character did make him can't help but admire.

nodded, opened the box handed over by Ji Sisi, and counted the silver, which was only more than a hundred taels, plus Li Qing's deposit, it was still more than three hundred taels.

These more than three hundred taels were like a mountain entrenched in the middle of the two people, making the two of them feel a little uncomfortable, and they were silent and didn't know what to do.

After a long time, Li Qingcai raised his head and sighed, breaking the silent atmosphere in the room, and said slowly: "Don't be too anxious, let's put this silver here first, you take it well, I'll go back first and see if I can get the silver to redeem you." ”

"I'll wait for you." Ji Sisi nodded in response, looked at the back of Li Qing leaving, and sighed with joy and worry.

Even she didn't expect Li Qing to say that she wanted to marry her, but the more than three hundred taels of silver was not a small amount.

Come to think of it. Ji Sisi couldn't help but sigh, and his mind was quickly thinking about how to deal with it.

And Sun Xing's side is not very smooth, since he ran away from home after a quarrel with his grandmother that day, after coming to the city from Sanxi Village, looking at the vast world and suddenly feeling a little empty, I don't know where to go.

After thinking about it, I decided to go to the capital to work hard to make a career.

He has ambitions and ambitions in his heart, and he has always longed for the excitement and prosperity of the capital, so he took this opportunity to prepare to go to the capital to break through.

As for the family, although he quarreled with his grandmother, after all, blood is thicker than water, and he also knew that there was a maid at home who was taking care of him, and nothing would happen, so he came to the capital with confidence.

I have to say that after Sun Xing came to the capital, he was attracted by the scenery in front of him at a glance, it was full of people, lively, and the prosperity was not comparable to the small place in Sanxi Village, even if it was compared with the city.

Suppressing the curiosity in his heart, he also knew that the main task now was to find a job, after all, he didn't have much money with him at that time, and after a few days of traveling, it was almost spent, if he didn't find a job to support himself quickly, he was afraid that he would not be far from starving to death on the streets.

After making up his mind, Sun Xing walked and watched on the road, while asking if there was any place to recruit buddies, and finally found a job in the restaurant, so he settled down in the capital.

On this day, taking advantage of the rest at night, Sun Xing climbed to the roof of the restaurant, looked at the moon hanging high in the sky, and couldn't help sighing, with an indissoluble sorrow in his eyes.

To be honest, he was still worried about his mother, after all, the mother and son were even stronger than water, how could such a relationship be given up so easily.

It's just because he was dissatisfied with his grandmother that she arranged a family affair for him so on her own, so she ran out.

But as time went by, the resentment in my heart also faded, and now that I think about it, I can't help but worry a little about my grandmother, and I don't know how she is now, and whether the maid at home has taken good care of him.

Thinking of this, Sun Xing sighed, picked up the wine jar on the side and changed it to his mouth.

In fact, he also knows the woman his mother arranged for him, it can be said that the two of them grew up together, similar to childhood sweethearts, but Sun Xing only regarded her as a sister in his heart, and had no other ideas.

Looking at the bright moon, he poured the last sip of wine in the jar into his mouth, then stood up, patted the dust off his body, and walked off the roof to get ready to rest.

He hadn't forgotten that he would have to go to work tomorrow.

The next day, Sun Xing also woke up early, but he was still a little dizzy, and after going to the kitchen to drink a bowl of sweet soup, he felt a little relieved, so he walked out of the kitchen and prepared to work.

At noon, there were more people in the restaurant, which made the guys in the restaurant a little busy.

As soon as Sun Xing delivered the food, he heard the shopkeeper's voice ringing in his ears: "You send these meals to the first room on the corner of the upper floor, there are a lot of people now, and you can't free up manpower." ”

Hearing this, Sun Xing didn't say much, just answered, picked up the food on the table and walked upstairs.

To be honest, after staying here for so long, Sun Xing probably understood some truths, here, it is possible that every pedestrian on the street is a figure with a head and a face, which is different from Sanxi Village.

Fortunately, Sun Xing knows what it means to know the times as a handsome person, so he can be regarded as a fish in water here.

While walking upstairs with food, he thought in his heart, the restaurant he stayed in was not small, so there were not a few dignitaries and nobles who came and went here on weekdays, and Sun Xing was a little strange.

Carrying the food, he walked upstairs, came to the room where the shopkeeper said, knocked on the door lightly and said, "Guest officer, the meal is here." ”

After the words fell, someone in the room opened the door, Sun Xing walked in with his head slightly down, his eyes kept looking at the floor in front of him, he didn't dare to look up and take a second look, and put the food on the table one by one, and when he was about to leave, he heard a somewhat familiar voice.

I was slightly surprised in my heart, and quietly raised my head slightly to take a look, but I didn't expect to see the Lord Li who was in the city at that time and made things difficult for Xia Wanqing.

Lord Li didn't recognize Sun Xing, and at this time he looked at the man opposite with a somewhat flattering smile on his face: "My lord, try it, these are the signature dishes here." ”

Listening to his somewhat flattering words, Sun Xing frowned slightly, raised his head and glanced at the two of them, and saw Master Li slightly flattering the man opposite.

This kind of Lord Li made Sun Xing's heart a little disdainful, but he didn't show it, he glanced at the man opposite Master Li again, his eyes flickered slightly, and he retreated.

However, there is a trace of curiosity about the identity of that man in his heart, and the identity of a person who can make such a hindrance as Lord Li must not be simple, it seems that if he has the opportunity, he has to check the identity of this man.

You must know that there is a lot of traffic in the restaurant, and the words that are usually spoken are also open-mouthed, and the amount of information is large, so it is not difficult to find the information of that man, and it is not easy to say it.

Suppressing the thoughts in his mind, he left the upstairs with a steady pace.

And Boss Li, the moment Sun Xing left, seemed to look thoughtfully in the direction of the door, but he only saw a back.

That back inexplicably made him feel a little familiar, and after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't come up with any clue, so he simply shook his head and threw this matter aside.

On the other side, after Xia Wanqing came out of the forest, she saw Wu Jinyu guarding the periphery of the forest, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, and she stepped forward and said, "Why are you still here, I thought you had gone back." ”

"Wanqing, are you okay? That's great. Seeing Xia Wanqing from a distance, Wu Jinyu hurriedly stepped forward and looked at her from head to toe, and only then breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was not injured.

"No, the python ran away." Xia Wanqing shook her head, and after speaking concisely, she looked at Wu Jinyu, who was obviously a little depressed in front of her, with some confusion: "I didn't see you in the forest, I thought you went back, how could you appear here?" ”

Hearing Xia Wanqing's words, Wu Jinyu chuckled: "I don't know where you are in the forest, and it's not good to rush in to find it, I know that if you come out, you can only take this way, so I want to wait for you here." ”
