Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Disappearing Noodle Stand
The three of them spent the night in a thatched hut, and the next morning, before dawn, they set off for Huaixian. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Not long after they left, on a hill in front of the village, a peerless beauty with a graceful figure, picturesque eyebrows, and lips as light as snow stood silently on the tip of a branch. I saw her dressed in red like a blooming poppy and corn blooming in the cold wind, and her eyes were coldly staring at the three people in the distance.
The branches of the trees rustled beautifully, and the whining wind blew through the secluded mountains, like music played by fingertips, strong but light.
At this time, she only felt a whistling beside her, but another enchanting woman in purple was already standing side by side with her.
The woman in purple squinted at her, and suddenly let out a crisp laugh, "Hua Wuji, you just let them go?" How do you explain to the palace master when you go back? ”
"You don't have to worry about my business." Hua Wuji's face sank, and her voice was as cold as frost.
Hearing this, the woman in purple raised her delicate chin, glanced at her arrogantly, and chuckled: "Hua Wuji, you are the left protector of the Shengxing Palace, and you actually secretly let Lin Daiyun's girl live, if the palace master knows, I see how you explain it!" ”
Hua Wuji turned her head suddenly, the black clouds in her eyes flickered, like a sharp sword shooting straight at her: "Lou Yue, don't think that I don't know about the deeds you did behind the palace master's back, if you dare to say it, it's a big deal to break the net." ”
When Lou Yue heard this, her pupils dilated suddenly, and she met Hua Wuji's cold eyes in surprise. After a while, he looked away a little stiffly, covered his mouth and smiled lowly: "What are you doing, one by one, we can say that we have been friends for more than ten years, just kidding, don't be so serious." ”
Hua Wuji's still dark eyes were as clear as usual in a blink of an eye, and she smiled lightly: "I'm joking too." ”
Lou Yue looked at her with a kind face, and her heart jumped suddenly.
This guy is getting worse and less easy to get along with.
You'll have to stay away from her in the future.
……
The fish belly on the horizon first appeared, and the red sun slowly climbed up the branches. Shen Xiuwen and the three of them had already appeared outside the south gate of Ning County at this moment, and the Wupeng carriage was still parked in front of the gate of the broken temple, and the coachman had been waiting here for a day and a night.
I bought a few steamed buns and steamed buns to eat on the way, and just after the hour, they set off.
The carriage drove slowly on the official road, and Lin Daiyun opened the curtain and looked outside while nibbling on buns.
Today's weather is very good, sunny and spring. It's just that it's February now, and the wind is blowing for a while, and it's still as cold as early winter.
Mo Zijun took off the big fur on his body and put it on Lin Daiyun, Lin Daiyun was stunned for a moment, put down the curtain, and turned his head.
Mo Zijun said: "Don't look at the beginning of spring now, but there is still a snow wind, and a snowy day is not as cold as a snowy day, if you are sick, how can I explain to my master and wife." ”
Although he was blaming, there was endless pampering hidden in his tone. Anyway, Shen Xiuwen heard it, in fact, he heard it since last night, so he has been huddled in the corner of the carriage silently at this moment, trying not to make himself appear so abrupt.
After all, the two brothers and sisters of the family frowned at each other along the way, and he pestled in front of them dryly, isn't it embarrassing and boring! It's better to get a good night's sleep.
Just when his eyelids were just closed, a voice like a clear spring came: "Thank you Senior Brother for your concern, it's just that I'm not cold at all, why don't you give Da Qiu to Xiuwen, he fell asleep." ”
This was naturally Lin Daiyun's voice, Shen Xiuwen was full of excitement, his head was tilted, his eyelids were tightly closed, and he pretended to be asleep.
Although her words were very heartwarming, Shen Xiuwen could not deny that Mo Zijun would probably hate him in the future.
Sure enough, Mo Zijun said coldly: "Listen to your junior sister." ”
The next moment, the soft and comfortable big fur covered his body. Shen Xiuwen felt a burst of softness, and sleepiness quickly hit his heart, and he fell asleep not long after.
By the time he woke up, it was almost dark.
When Lin Daiyun saw him wake up, he exclaimed excitedly, "Are you awake?" It's Qingyun Mountain in front, why don't you go to that uncle's noodle stall and eat a bowl of vinaigrette noodles first. ”
Hearing her say this, Shen Xiuwen also felt a little hungry, touched the remaining steamed buns and buns in the baggage, all of which became hard stones, licked the dried mouth, and took his hand back.
After a while, we arrived at the foot of Qingyun Mountain.
The coachman said, "Second son, don't you see any noodle stalls around here?" ”
Shen Xiuwen opened the curtains, poked his head out to take a look, and really didn't see any noodle stalls. Lin Daiyun also leaned his head over to take a look, and said in surprise: "That uncle's noodle stall is here, how can there be no more?" ”
Shen Xiuwen glanced back at the hard steamed buns and buns in the baggage, and said in a stern tone: "That uncle is from Wanlin Village, maybe something has happened back to the village." ”
Lin Daiyun frowned and said, "Anyway, I think it's very strange, that uncle is from Wanlin Village, how can he do business in Qingyun Mountain?" ”
Shen Xiuwen put down the curtains, sat back and said, "Didn't he say that business is not easy to do on a cold day, change places, maybe business can get better." ”
"No, no." Lin Daiyun shook his head, "If you feel that business is not good, it is the same to go to the county seat of Ning County, or to Huai County and Qing County, how can you be at the foot of this sparsely populated mountain." ”
Hearing this, Shen Xiuwen also became cautious. The uncle knows everything about the affairs of the Hu, Ping, and Zheng families, which in itself is the biggest problem.
Since the old lady of the Zheng family is guilty of the crime alone, and the officials involved have suppressed the truth, even if he is from Wanlin Village, it is impossible for him to understand this matter in such a detailed and thorough way.
Shen Xiuwen raised his eyebrows, but changed to a casual expression and said: "Where are people doing business, whether they make money or not, what do you worry about, it is better to think about how to fill your stomach." ”
"Then go to your drunken fairy restaurant, please, how about it?" Lin Daiyun, who was still dignified, was staring at him with two big eyes smiling at this time.
Shen Xiuwen rolled his eyelids and said in his heart: This little girl is too quick to change her face.
He cleared his throat and said, "In the past month, you have worked tirelessly to go in and out with me, of course I have to express a little gratitude, please have a meal, little meaning." ”
As soon as the words fell, he felt a sharp gaze shoot at him, coldly, as if it was about to shoot him through.
Shen Xiuwen turned his head and smiled at Mo Zijun: "Of course, I also want to express my gratitude to Senior Brother Mo, who rescued him in times of crisis, this friendship is unforgettable." ”
Mo Zijun looked at him fixedly for a while, then withdrew his gaze, leaned against the opposite corner, and closed his eyes.
Shen Xiuwen felt that this person was not very easy to get along with, the whole person had an ice cube face, what to ask and not to answer, and it was even more difficult to say a sentence without asking, except for Lin Daiyun, he had never looked at anyone.
