Chapter Ninety-Nine: Searching for People in Cloud City (1)
After Qiu Yu got up in the morning, he walked out of the room after washing up, and asked the shopkeeper to bring him breakfast, and when the shopkeeper brought breakfast, under his questioning, Qiu Yu knew that he had been sleeping in bed for two days.
After the shopkeeper left, he shook his head with a smile while eating breakfast, "I didn't expect myself to be so tired, I actually slept in bed for two days, it seems that I have to eat quickly, so that I can go out to find Mo Xuelian's whereabouts, I don't want to waste any more time waiting." β
After Qiu Yu quickly finished eating, he simply cleaned himself up and walked out of the Wangyun Inn, he took the small statue of Mo Xuelian prepared in advance with him, and planned to ask where he walked along the street.
Qiu Yu walked on the street, he looked east and west, he saw an aunt selling vegetables, he stepped forward, took out a small portrait of Mo Xuelian, smiled politely and asked, "Auntie, have you ever seen this girl in the portrait? Do you know her?"
The aunt who sold vegetables looked at the portrait in Qiu Yu's hand carefully, frowned, and shook her head, "No, I haven't seen it, you can ask elsewhere." β
Qiu Yu was a little disappointed after hearing this, he walked to other places, he went to a store that sold ready-to-wear stores, he smiled at the shopkeeper and said that he wanted to ask him about someone, he took out Mo Xuelian's portrait and asked, "Boss, have you seen this girl? I'm looking for her in a hurry." β
The shopkeeper also replied the same as the aunt who sold vegetables, but he didn't see it, Qiu Yu was a little depressed when he heard it, so he continued to look for other places.
In this way, Qiu Yu searched for a long time, and he did not find any clues about Mo Xuelian for several days, and after a few days of searching, he went out early and returned late every day, and he was exhausted.
He wanted to find her as soon as possible because he missed Mo Xuelian, he hadn't eaten a good meal in the past few days, he simply wandered around the city, after all, this is the center of the town, people come and go on both sides of the road, and all kinds of shops are also separated, he believes that as long as he goes from house to house, he can always find some clues.
Qiu Yu was walking on the street, he saw a bunch of officers and soldiers, lined up in a neat line, interspersed in the crowd, running in a hurry, he was a little strange why there were so many officers and soldiers, but he didn't pay attention to it and continued to walk.
Qiu Yu didn't eat very well, he felt a little hungry at this time, he walked to the door of a restaurant, wanted to go in to eat, fill his stomach, as soon as he walked into the restaurant, he was attracted by the smell of food wafting out of the kitchen, aroused the gluttony in his stomach.
At this time, Xiao Er, who was dressed in white linen clothes, saw someone coming in, so he hurriedly stepped forward to accompany him with a smile and nodded his head to say hello.
"This master, what do you want to eat? We have big dishes from the north and south, all kinds of cuisines, and Jiang Xiang's famous chef personally cooks for you, we here, and the most famous pure grain wine drunk in nine days, to ensure that you have not drunk such pure wine, sir, please inside, there is a vacancy over there." β
Qiu Yu just smiled and nodded to Xiao Er, he didn't care about anything, his mind was now full of Mo Xuelian's gentle, cute and beautiful shadows, and he couldn't pretend to be anything else.
He only remembered that there was nine days of drunken wine, he had heard of nine days of drunkenness before, it was a very famous folk wine, although he had drunk a lot of fine wine, but it was all good wine treasured in the family, as for the nine days of drunkenness, he really hadn't drunk it.
Qiu Yu found the vacant seat and sat down next to the table, he looked around and found that this restaurant was not too big, but it was very clean, the tables, chairs and benches were polished and shiny, and the guys in the shop, although they were all wearing coarse cloth clothes, were also very neat and clean, which made people have the desire to eat at a glance.
Although Qiu Yu was sitting on the chair, his heart still kept thinking about Mo Xuelian's whereabouts, and the shopkeeper saw that Qiu Yu was a little absent-minded, so he wiped the clean desktop with the white cloth in his hand, and lowered his head and asked tentatively, "This young master, what do you want to eat?" β
After Qiu Yu heard the voice, his thoughts were interrupted by Xiao Er's question, and he hurriedly smiled embarrassedly, "Oh, Xiao Er, bring me two of your most famous dishes, as well as the wine you just said about being drunk for nine days, and bring me a jar too." β
The store asked for a jar of nine days drunk, so he was a little surprised and embarrassed to look at Qiu Yuhan and smiled, "This young master, you must be passing by here, our nine days of drunkenness is not comparable to ordinary wine, and the most people here can drink can only drink a glass." As he spoke, Xiao Er's two hands also gestured to the size of the cup.
Qiu Yu saw the size of Xiao Er's cup, which was almost the size of his fist, so he laughed out loud, "Xiao Er, are you kidding me? How can I drink such a little wine, are you afraid that I can't afford to pay for it." β
As he spoke, Qiu Yu took out a large piece of silver from his waist and handed it to the stunned person who was there, and just bring me the wine. β
Xiao Er hesitantly took the silver, he saw that this person didn't listen to persuasion, so he didn't bother to deal with him, so he looked at him with a smile, "Okay master, as long as you have money, you can drink as much as you want, but if you get drunk, don't blame us, you wait a minute, and you will serve wine and food." β
After finishing it, he turned around and left here, he still waved at the guy and shouted, "A Pujiang koi, a Pingfeng Town Dongbo elbow, a plate of Jinyang Songhua pork, a colorful pheasant in the south of Mingshan, and a jar of aged nine days drunk." β
Qiu Yu waited for more than ten minutes, and then saw Xiao Er holding a jar of Jiutian drunk with both hands, looking like about ten catties, and put it down on his table, and then he brought a plate of peanuts and a plate of small snacks and a small cup on the table.
The shopkeeper smiled with him, nodded and looked at Qiu Yu, "Master, you eat first, your dishes will be ready immediately, and I will bring them to you in a while." β
Qiu Yu nodded after hearing this, Xiao Er retreated with a smile again, he was very depressed these days because he didn't have any clues about Mo Xuelian, he saw the wine, he couldn't wait to open the mud seal immediately, and wanted to drink some wine to relieve him and be depressed.
As soon as the wine mud was opened, before he could pour the wine, he smelled an intoxicating aroma of wine, Qiu Yu thought to himself, "This is really good wine, such a pure wine aroma, it is a good wine that has been treasured at home for many years, and I am afraid that it may not have this purity." With that in mind, he poured himself a cup and drank it all.
