Chapter 555: Back to the camp
After a while, it was Lin Xuanzhong's turn at the end, and because of Lin Xuanzhong's gray hair, the shopkeeper couldn't help but look stunned. Since there was no white paint, the stall owner didn't think about helping the dolls color, unlike the dolls depicting Fang Qing and Ni Youbin, after carefully observing Lin Xuanzhong's demeanor, the stall owner took action.
Little by little, Lin Xuanzhong's facial features are portrayed, and each stroke is very careful, not only carving the facial features of the terracotta figurines exactly the same as Lin Xuanzhong, but also embodying Lin Xuanzhong's demeanor, and the final terracotta figurines look better than Fang Qing and Ni Youbin's dolls when they are not colored.
"This son, your hair is white and can't be colored, what do you think of it now?" After the figurines were carved, the stall owner directly handed the uncolored terracotta figurines to Lin Xuanzhong.
After taking the terracotta figurines, Lin Xuanzhong found that it was not heavy in his hand, and only after weighing it did he look at it carefully, not only did his facial features look very much like him, but even his demeanor was not much better, it can be said that Lin Xuanzhong was very satisfied.
"How much?" After Lin Xuanzhong nodded, Ling Ziqing asked directly about the price.
"It's a piece of jade," the stall owner smiled and quoted the price.
"Ni Youbin, you pay quickly," asked for the price, and Ling Ziqing immediately shouted at Ni Youbin.
"What?" Ni Youbin was taken aback, no longer looked at his own terracotta figurines, and subconsciously touched his sleeves, but unfortunately found no signs of the existence of jade.
"I don't have any money on me," Ni Youbin shook his head, and Ni Youbin looked helpless. Because he has been staying at the Ling family recently, he has not been able to contact the personnel of the Ni family's shop, and Ni Youbin has no financial resources at all.
"What?" This time it was Ling Ziqing's turn to exclaim, only to see Ling Ziqing look at Ni Youbin in disbelief and ask, "You still call me and my sister out for dinner if you don't have money." ”
Originally, according to Ling Ziqing's conjecture, Ni Youbin, as the eldest son of the Ni family, should be very rich, but now it seems that this is not the case.
Under Ling Ziqing's questioning, Fang Qing on the side stood behind with interest, obviously having no money on him. As for Lin Xuanzhong, he raised his head in surprise, thinking with some surprise that he didn't expect money to really become a problem.
"I'll give it," When Lin Xuanzhong and Fang Qing consciously chose to be silent, Ling Zixin saw the difficulties of the three of them, and immediately took out a piece of jade to pay the bill.
"Thank you," took the jade, and the stall owner who had been waiting for a long time finally relaxed.
"Ni Youbin, are you deliberately looking for me and my sister to come out to help you pay the bills today?" Although someone paid the money, the anger in his heart was still there, and Ling Ziqing was still very dissatisfied with Ni Youbin.
"Ziqing, don't get me wrong, how could the three of us be like that," Ni Youbin quickly shook his head to defend the three of them, and then took into account the current situation of the three of them and continued: "It's just that the money of the three of us was spent a long time ago. ”
"After all, it's not that there is no money," Ling Ziqing answered impatiently, and then looked at Ling Zixin and said, "Sister, why don't we go back." ”
In fact, Ling Ziqing also didn't have any money on him, and Ling Ziqing also knew that his sister didn't have much money on him. Recently, the Ling family's economic situation has been poor, and the two sisters have eaten well at home, where is there any spare money to spend outside.
Unexpectedly, Ling Ziqing wanted to go back halfway because of money, and Fang Qing, who was a little surprised, couldn't agree, so Fang Qing quickly thought of an idea.
"Ni Youbin, you find a pawnshop and exchange your sword for some cash, so we can go to dinner." ”
"I said Fang Qing, how can you do your best to make a bad idea, why don't you use your weapon as a weapon?" Seeing that Fang Qing proposed the old method he had used before, Ni Youbin was very unhappy.
"Okay, if you're not happy, then I'll go," I don't know why, Fang Qing really agreed.
"Slow, let's go," Fang Qing's cheerful promise was unexpected, thinking about letting Fang Qing behave in front of the two women, it was better to behave himself, so after calling Fang Qing, Ni Youbin hurriedly said: "I can redeem the sword if I take it, and your sword may be resold to others." ”
"Okay, we'll wait for you at that inn," he agreed with a smile, Fang Qing had already guessed that Ni Youbin would not really let him go.
"You ......" Fang Qing smiled, his smile was brighter than a flower, which made Ni Youbin feel deceived, but Ni Youbin also wanted to find a place to write a letter to Windless City after going to the pawnshop, so that the people from the shop over there would come to him, so he didn't say much.
At the same time, the two sisters originally felt inappropriate when they heard Ni Youbin say that they were going to be a sword, but now that they saw Ni Youbin say that they could redeem it, the two sisters no longer felt embarrassed. As for Lin Xuanzhong, of course, he agreed with Ni Youbin to be a sword, because Lin Xuanzhong also didn't want to see the two sisters go back now.
Next, Ni Youbin went to inquire where there was a pawnshop, and Lin Xuanzhong and the four of them walked towards the inn that Fang Qing had just pointed out.
"Home inn," the four big characters on the plaque give people a sense of deep meaning. The whole inn has two floors, because a few people came early, there were no guests inside. After entering the inn, several people were not in a hurry to order, but simply asked for a pot of tea.
"Brother Lin, can you give me your terracotta figurines?" Not long after sitting down, Ling Ziqing asked Lin Xuanzhong as if he had finally made a decision after thinking about it for a long time.
Such a sudden request surprised Lin Xuanzhong very much, he didn't know what Ling Ziqing wanted his terracotta figurines for, but after thinking about it carefully, there was no reason to refuse, so under Ling Ziqing's expectant gaze, Lin Xuanzhong directly handed over the terracotta figurines after a brief consideration.
"Brother Lin, don't worry, I will definitely take this gift well," Ling Ziqing was very excited after receiving the terracotta figurine from Lin Xuanzhong's hand, and assured Lin Xuanzhong with an excited face.
Following Lin Xuanzhong's attention, Ling Ziqing put his terracotta figurines and Lin Xuanzhong's terracotta figurines together, admiring them from all angles with a happy face.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see Ling Ziqing's inner thoughts at the moment, but Fang Qing was inspired by Ling Ziqing's behavior of asking Lin Xuanzhong for terracotta figurines, and asked inappropriately, "Ziqing, can you give me your terracotta figurines?"
"No, Brother Lin gave me his terracotta figurines, and if I want to give them to Brother Lin, I can only give them to Brother Lin," Fang Qing's question interrupted Ling Ziqing's interest, and what was greeted was a rejection.
"The point is that Brother Lin didn't say yes, I don't think you should give it to me," Fang Qing still didn't understand Ling Ziqing's intentions, and asked without giving up.
"Brother Lin, do you want it?" In order to make Fang Qing die, and at the same time want to see Lin Xuanzhong's attitude, Ling Ziqing could only ask in person.
Ling Ziqing's question made Lin Xuanzhong embarrassed, if he accepted it, it would be a gift exchange, Lin Xuanzhong felt that it would make people think that they liked Ling Ziqing, but if they didn't, it would only disappoint Ling Ziqing, maybe it would be more serious than disappointment. So, after thinking about it, in order not to make Ling Ziqing sad, Lin Xuanzhong could only nod, ignoring Fang Qing's feelings.
While taking the terracotta figurines from Ling Ziqing's hands, while looking at Fang Qing's pained appearance, even if he really thought that Ling Ziqing's terracotta figurines were very good-looking, Lin Xuanzhong couldn't show his joy.
"Brother Lin, how can you win people's love?" Lin Xuanzhong's behavior stimulated Fang Qing in the end, only to see Fang Qing unexpectedly change his normal behavior and question Lin Xuanzhong.
"If you want to, go to that stall owner again and ask him to make another one for you, I can lend you Ziqing's terracotta figurines first," It was impossible to transfer the terracotta figurines to Fang Qing, Lin Xuanzhong knew that that would only make things worse, but he could still give Fang Qing a good idea.
"Brother Lin, one person can only make one terracotta figurine, what's the point of making two?" Lin Xuanzhong's helpless move still made Ling Ziqing very dissatisfied, seeing that Lin Xuanzhong was about to hand his terracotta figurines to Fang Qing, the original joy on Ling Ziqing's face slowly disappeared.
"That's it, then Fang Qing still don't go," I didn't expect Ling Ziqing's mood to change so quickly, and if he said that he was not happy, he would not be happy, and Lin Xuanzhong quickly comforted him after reacting.
"What are you talking about? It seems to be very lively?" While Lin Xuanzhong was waiting for Ling Ziqing to be a little happier, a figure suddenly appeared at the door of the inn, it was Ni Youbin, who had just gone to be a sword. Before entering the door, Ni Youbin's voice had already come first.
"I didn't talk about anything," Lin Xuanzhong shook his head, not wanting Ni Youbin to get involved in his troubles again.
"Oh," he replied softly, without any doubts about Lin Xuanzhong's answer, and then, Ni Youbin smiled again: "I took the sword as a pawn, and threatened that the shopkeeper must not change my sword, otherwise he will directly smash his pawnshop when he goes to redeem the sword with the bill next time!" Ni Youbin spoke in a very proud tone, looking not only prestigious, but also sold it for a good price.
"Then let's hurry up and order!" Following Ni Youbin's words, Lin Xuanzhong hurriedly changed the topic.
On the other side, Fang Qing and Ling Ziqing wanted to say something more, but when they saw Ni Youbin's hippie smiling face, neither of them said it. After Ni Youbin sat down, Lin Xuanzhong directly called the guys from the inn over.
ordered a large table of dishes, but despite this, Lin Xuanzhong still couldn't be as comfortable as before, he always felt that Ling Ziqing and Fang Qing were not good, and they were related to him, and he felt sorry for the two of them, but unfortunately Lin Xuan had no way to change the current situation.
Fortunately, Ni Youbin will talk about topics that change the atmosphere from time to time, so that the meal is not so embarrassing. After eating, the two sisters were sent away, and the three of them went directly to the barracks.
When they arrived at the barracks, the soldiers in the camp had just finished their lunch and were scattered on a large school ground.
"General, are you here?" With his white hair, Lin Xuanzhong didn't even need to take any identification, and took Fang Qing and Ni You all the way through the barracks, all the way to the soldiers in the headquarters. Before Lin Xuanzhong could speak, Yu Tong and Zhang Jiutian had already greeted him.
I haven't seen it for a month, the aura on Yu Tong's body has basically not changed, and after feeling it carefully, it is even worse than a month ago, Lin Xuanzhong knows that this is because of the improvement of his own strength. And the aura on Zhang Jiutian's body is stronger than before, and it has obviously improved recently.
