Xiao Yue didn't expect to meet the big boss of Lejia here.

She originally wanted to use the name of the Lejia master to cover for Yuan Chenhao, but she didn't expect to meet the main owner.

When the noodle shop owner brought the noodles to her, she was still thinking about what to do next.

Xiao Yue thought in her heart, if the Lejia had a house in Horizontal Village, then they could also see if it was possible to rent a yard in a nearby village.

However, she was completely unfamiliar with the local area, and there were no acquaintances, and time was pressing.

Because according to the previous agreement, Yuan Chenhao is likely to come here tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

What seemed like an easy task at first was now the most difficult problem she had ever faced in this world.

She kept thinking about it, and she didn't notice that the noodles in the bowl in front of her were already messy.

It wasn't until her boss reminded her that she remembered to eat noodles.

While eating noodles, she also thought about calculating that it would take an hour's drive from here to Taiping County, and they also needed to find suitable courtyards in the villages along the way.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yue felt more and more that time was pressing, and she was in a hurry, and the noodles tasted tasteless.

At this time, the owner of the noodle shop chatted with other customers, which attracted her attention.

"This lady, this bowl of noodles is not enough for your mother and son, or I will make you another bowl. ”

Across from Satsuki sat a mother and son.

The woman was dignified-looking, and there was a calmness in her demeanor, and she was dressed like a young woman.

She whispered, "No need, thank you boss." Then, he lowered his head and blew the noodles in the bowl to cool and fed them to the four or five-year-old girls next to him.

"Sakura-chan, you can eat. ”

The little girl is smart and cute, with a double bun on her head, her eyes are not big, but she keeps rolling in her sockets, and she looks very curious about the thing in front of her.

She closed her little pink mouth tightly and shook her head.

"Well, let's eat, I haven't eaten all day today. The woman said softly.

"Mother eats first," the little girl pouted, and said unhappily, "Mother hasn't eaten today." ”

The woman smiled softly, "I'm not hungry, Sakura should be hungry, you can eat." ”

The little girl still shook her head, "No, I heard my mother's stomach screaming just now, and you said you weren't hungry because you were feeding me." ”

The woman said with a wry smile: "Sakura-chan, my mother is an adult, and there is nothing to be hungry for, you are growing your body, and if you are hungry, you will be in trouble." ”

The little girl rolled her eyes and asked the woman tentatively, "Mother, why should we leave the house and go to my grandfather's house?

The woman sighed, "It's the best decision for us to leave at this time, if we continue to stay, it will cause more trouble for your father." ”

"What's the trouble?" the little girl asked puzzledly, "Isn't it that my father has already agreed to succeed Brother Qian Zhen?"

The woman picked up the bowl and put it in front of the girl, "Sakura-chan, you don't have to worry about the adults, eat the noodles quickly, we still have to hurry!"

The little girl looked at the noodles in the bowl and said sadly, "But if we go back now, grandpa will definitely embarrass you." It's better to go back and beg grandpa, he loves me the most, and he shouldn't drive us away. ”

"You're still young... The woman shook her head, "Leave the matter of adults alone. Listening to my mother's words, I quickly ate the noodles, and I had to hurry in the afternoon. We're going home before dark. ”

The little girl pouted, refusing to eat this bowl of noodles alone, "Mother eats it, Sakura eats it." ”

The woman smiled comfortably, "Okay, okay, okay, Mother take a bite, Sakura take a bite." ”

Xiao Yue looked at the mother and son, and was a little envious.

She remembered that her parents had just divorced, and she had lived an embarrassing life with her mother.

At that time, their mother and daughter also depended on each other in this way.

After Xiaoyue finished eating the noodles, she called the boss, took out a tael of silver, and said softly: "You don't need to look for more, I paid for the noodles of the mother and daughter opposite." In addition, cook another bowl of noodles for the mother and daughter. ”

The boss smiled knowingly, "Childe, have you met an acquaintance?"

Xiao Yue said with a smile: "When Pingshui met, I was very moved to see their mothers and sons filial piety. ”

"Oh, that's it!" The boss squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "It seems that Childe is a kind-hearted person, so I will thank you in advance for the mother and daughter." ”

"You're welcome. Satsuki stood up and left the noodle shop.

Out of the noodle restaurant, Xiao Yue walked straight to the inn.

She thought to herself that maybe Xing Xiaoyu had already rented the yard, and they could leave early.

When she got back into the street, she suddenly saw that the street was full of people, some shouting something at a mansion.

"Master Guan, I can't help but eat!"

"Master Guan, how will we live in the future!"

And standing outside the circle of the crowd, most of them are people who are holding their arms to watch the excitement.

She looked around, found an old man with a familiar face, and asked, "Old man, what are so many people doing here?"

The old man looked gloating, "Look at the show." ”

"What's the show here?" Xiao Yue looked at the crowd inside and out, she was so thin that it was impossible to squeeze in, and she was short enough to see the situation inside.

"Your son is a foreigner. The old man took a cigarette stick, took a puff of cigarette, and slowly exhaled, looked at Xiao Yue with slanted eyes, and said with some disgust: "No wonder I don't know." ”

Xiao Yue accompanied a smile, "I just passed by when I went down, and I really didn't know." ”

"Well," the old man was very satisfied with Xiao Yue's response, and said patiently: "This is the annex of the state capital, it is said that the master of the state capital has arrived today, and the state capital will also come in a few days." ”

"And what are these people here for?" asked Satsuki, puzzled.

"Hehehe... The old man smiled very mysteriously, "On the surface, he said that he came to ask the official to give an explanation, but in fact, who knows what's going on." ”

"What do you want?"

The old man said softly: "At noon today, I don't know who is spreading the news on the dock. It is said that in a few days, the lord of the state capital will come to Sancha Lake to buy salt with the imperial court. ”

"Salt shop?" Xiao Yue said puzzledly: "I heard that the imperial court is coming to buy the Huang family's salt well." ”

"Well, that's what everybody said at the beginning. However, the word came and went, and now it is like this. ”

Satsuki looked at the people standing on the street, all dressed like men on the dock.

"These people are all salt shopkeepers?"

"Well, don't underestimate these people, the top ten gangs of Yanxing are here. ”

"Top 10 Gangs?" Xiao Yue was confused. "Does the salt shop have anything to do with the Huang family?"

"Hehe, you're not a local. The old man said with a smug smile: "This salt shop has ten major gangs, such as the Salt Burning Gang, the Salt Loading Gang, and the Niu Yun Gang. Although Yanjing belongs to the Huang family, they still need to hire someone to do things. It is impossible for the brine of the Huang family's salt well to automatically turn into salt. ”

"So... Xiao Yue guessed: "The people in the salt store are all hired by the Huang family?"

"Clever. The old man gave Xiao Yue a thumbs up.

"So the people here won't come to the state capital to protest for no reason, it must be the meaning of the Huang family. Satsuki then guessed.
