"Huh?" Xiao Ling'er was stunned for a moment, then turned around and looked at Zhou Shen.

Zhou Shen's smile was immediately put away, and he quickly coughed lightly, if he wasn't holding something in both hands, he would definitely scratch the back of his head, "I mean, if you are free, call Xiao Changsheng and Xiaoqin and they can come together." Those two children must like to be lively. ”

"Oh? Also. Xiao Ling'er turned around and nodded.

"Shall you go back now?"

"No, I'm going to find someone somewhere." Anyway, when she came to the county seat, Xiao Ling'er wanted to go to Mu Shishi by the way, but she hadn't seen her for a long time.

"Looking for someone?" Zhou Shen took a step forward to catch up, he never knew what friends the little lady had in the county. "Yes...... Is it the Mei family? ”

"Of course not, it's a friend I met from selling drugs before." Xiao Ling'er sneered and laughed, "My nominal concubine of the Mei family, when have you ever seen the Mei family in charge, between me and the Mei family, except for the paper deed of sale, there is no other relationship, I can't hide it, how can I find myself." ”

What's more, there is still an old fox in the house, if he really enters the Mei family, just calculating and calculating with him all day long, his brain will be dizzy, it is still so easy and comfortable.

Xiao Ling'er said, stretching to herself, and the expression on her face became comfortable, "But it's okay like this, just stay with your mother-in-law and them, relax, isn't it?" If...... It would be better if I wasn't the concubine of the Mei family. ”

Zhou Shen's eyes fell on Xiao Ling'er, the sun in winter was very lazy, as if there was no temperature, but when it shone on the little lady's body, he felt that even the little lady's cheeks became extremely warm and gentle. Hides were embroidered between her clothes, and the dagger he had given her was pinned to her waist.

He lowered his jaw slightly, and lowered his voice, as if he was just speaking to himself.

"Yes, if you weren't the Mei family's concubine, how good."

Xiao Ling'er didn't listen to Zhou Shen's words, but saw that his pace was slower, "What do you think, Brother Zhou, it's not faster." ”

"Okay." Zhou Shen shook his head, cleared the distracting thoughts in his mind, laughed again, and caught up with Xiao Ling'er's steps.

The two walked side by side to Mu Shishi's pharmacy, talking and laughing, the sound of chatting was covered, no one listened to the carriage that turned from the corner of the street not far away, and stopped not far behind them, the curtain was slightly opened, and Wen Yan, who was sitting in front of the carriage, was still tilting his head and saying, "Young Master, what a coincidence, you finally went to Baicaotang from the house, and you were able to meet Mrs. Aunt." By the way, the one next to her seems to be the one I saw in Anding Village that day to give animal skins to my aunt's wife. ”

"Hmm." Mei Cheng'an's throat was warm and heavy, and the cold wind outside the curtain crept in, making him cough lightly. He withdrew his hand and let the curtain close.

Wen Yan, who was outside the carriage, couldn't see his young master's expression, and only listened to the slight silence before a sentence came, "It's okay, keep going." ”

"Okay." Wen Yan didn't notice anything else, but said to himself, "But young master, aren't all the account books of Baicaotang sent to the mansion, it's too cold this weather, why do you have to come out." ”

"Today is Laba."

"Laba?" Wen Yan tilted his head and thought about it, and immediately patted the back of his head, "Yes, today is Laba, and Miss Zhu's birthday, she will definitely come to Mei's house today." ”

It's like this every year, and he actually forgot about it this year. The eldest lady of the Zhu family is very difficult, and the young master has already sent someone to send a birthday gift, but the relationship between the two families, every year in Laba, she will follow the old master Zhu to the house, and she has to take the young master to the Zhu family to attend her birthday banquet.

Wen Yan couldn't help but shudder when he thought about this, or the eldest young master had the foresight to go to Baicaotang to avoid it first, otherwise I really don't know how the aunt and grandmother are going to make trouble.

He said, scratching his forehead again, "But then again, young master, the young lady of the Zhu family is a little willful, and she is still very good to the young master, the old lady likes it very much, but it's a pity that the young master ...... I don't even want to give her a birthday, I wish the eldest lady to take a big day like her birthday closely, after all, it is only once a year. Alas, I don't know what else will happen in the house today. The eldest young master is not here, and the second young master is estimated to be gearing up. ”

Wen Yan said a long time to himself, but it seemed that no one was listening, and there was no movement in the carriage behind him, so he had to obediently shut up.

The carriage swayed, and I don't know how long it was, Wen Yanyuan thought that the young master behind him had already fallen asleep, but he didn't think that the leisurely voice suddenly came out of the carriage. "Wen Yan, when I was asleep before, the fortune teller who helped me combine the eight characters may be found?"

"Yes, it's the most famous diviner in the temple on the outskirts of the city, does the young master have something to do with him?"

"Go look for him and see if he has left the original Xiao family's birthday eight characters."

……

After a while, Xiao Ling'er and Zhou Shen also walked to Mu Shishi's pharmacy.

It's almost the Chinese New Year, and the business of the pharmacy is also much worse, it is deserted, Xiao Ling'er walked in, and the little boy who had been busy taking medicine at the counter called Lin Zi was not there, only Mu Shishi sat alone in front of the counter, holding her chin and flipping through the account book in her hand at will, looking bored.

"What's a person in a daze?" Xiao Ling'er couldn't help but laugh when she looked at her.

One sentence frightened Mu Shishi, raised her head to see that it was her, and her eyes bent again, "Ling'er!" Ouch my aunt, how long has it been, you ruthless little girl, you finally know to come to see me. ”

"Okay, isn't this coming?" Xiao Ling'er couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly introduced Zhou Shen behind her, "Brother Zhou, this is the shopkeeper of the pharmacy where I have been selling medicines, Mu Shishi, Sister Shishi." ”

"Sister Shishi, this is the hunter in our village, and it is my friend Zhou Shen."

"Friends?" Mu Shishi walked up to her with her skirt, and a pair of meaningful eyes looked at Zhou Shen from top to bottom, "Are you just friends?" Well...... He looks upright and simple, and his body height is good, but he looks like he's a little stunned. ”

"Sister Shishi!" Xiao Ling'er couldn't wait to reach out to cover Mu Shishi's mouth, and see what she said, "I said that we are just friends, just people from the same village, and we take care of each other, don't say it." ”

"It's okay, it's okay." Zhou Shen, who was in the back, put things down for the time being, and finally had time to touch his head, easing the embarrassment on his face a little, "Boss Mu is also joking, it's okay, I won't care." ”

"Hahaha, you see, the little brother is very bold, and no one cares about it." Mu Shishi stuck out her tongue, but finally took the words back, "Come on, come on, sit down quickly, although I don't have anything to eat and drink, it's still warm." ”

Mu Shishi said, even Xiao Ling'er didn't care about it, pulled Zhou Shen to the chair on the side, poured hot tea from the back, and brought some snacks over, "Xiao Shen, right?" Eh, since it's Ling'er's friend, it's also my friend, so there's no need to be restrained in this pharmacy. ”

"Then thank you Boss Mu." Zhou Shen was not a restrained person, but when he heard Mu Shishi say this, Xiao Baiya grinned, "I always thought that the little lady was very special, but I didn't expect that even my friends were as special as her." ”

"Special? That's an interesting description. Mu Shishi's gossip was up, and she couldn't hold it at all, so she looked at Xiao Ling'er's face and didn't say again, "But, what little lady?" Haven't you known Ling Er for a long time, why do you still call her that, I remember Ling Er didn't like this title? It's better to call Ling'er with us. ”

"This ......"

"What's this, I just praised you for being bold, why did you twist it again. Besides, Xiao Shen, look at her, what kind of little lady does she look like, don't call people old, right, Ling'er? ”

"Yes, yes, you say anything." Xiao Ling'er couldn't do anything about her, but she told Zhou Shen about it when she first met, but Zhou Shen had always been shy and didn't change her name. Later, she herself got used to this identity, so she let it go.

didn't expect to be picked up by Mu Shishi at this time, he actually nodded, "Okay, I'll follow you like this in the future, but it's closer than the little lady." ”

"That's right." Mu Shishi bent her eyes and smiled, and the beaded hairpins in her hair were rattling, "That Xiao Shen, if you are not in a hurry, you can sit here for a while first, I want to talk to Ling Er about some things about the girl's family, and by the way, you will show me the store for a while?" ”

"Of course, let's go."

"Okay, he's really a good Erlang." Mu Shishi pulled Xiao Ling'er next to her and pulled her towards the room behind.

As soon as the door was closed, Xiao Ling'er immediately let out a long sigh, "You, how can you joke about everything, Brother Zhou is a very serious person, and he really takes it seriously when he turns around." ”

"Isn't it really better, I think other people are pretty good." Mu Shishi stuck out her tongue, "Besides, since you don't want to have anything to do with the Mei family, and you plan to have the opportunity to reconcile with Mei Chengan in the future, don't you also have to find a way back, I see, Xiao Shen is very good." ”

"Alright." Xiao Ling'er really can't do anything about her, "I'm still young, don't worry, you haven't landed yet, it's all up to me." ”

"You little girl!"

"Besides, I don't want to have anything to do with Mei Chengan now, and I really have a relationship."

"Huh? What do you mean? Mu Shishi's face changed again, and she felt that there must be another interesting story in the past few months, so she immediately pulled Xiao Ling'er and sat down. Hurry up, tell me, what happened to you and the eldest young master of the Mei family? ”
