Lin An Traces Chapter 50 Xiaorui

"Oh my God!"

Tang Xuanxuan almost exclaimed, covered her mouth, and replied:

"Then did you tell Your Majesty?"

"Hehe, I told him the last time I left Fuyu Mountain,"

Shen Xingliu thought for a while, paused, and continued: "It's just that he knows, it is estimated that he knows more than me, they are in the dark, we are in the light, we can only see the moves, one step at a time." ”

"Well, no matter what, I will always be by your side..."

Tang Xuanxuan lowered her head and muttered to herself, her little hands couldn't help but clench tighter.

......

After a meal.

The medicinal materials were ready, Tang Xuanxuan casually explained a few words, then pulled Shui Ruyi and went to the Danfang to develop a new prescription.

After the three wolf cubs finished eating early, they couldn't sit still anymore and went back to the backyard to play.

Bai Binbin glanced left and right, and asked suspiciously, "Little wolf, where did he go?" ”

"Oh, you're looking for him?" Shen Xingliu wiped his mouth and asked.

"Hmm... In fact, this matter is the same as that of the Black Hero. ”

Bai Binbin smiled mysteriously, took out a food box from behind him, and opened it.

"Hey, Binbin, you said you had something delicious, and you didn't send it early, I'm full."

Shui Sinian said that he couldn't eat it, but he reached out and pinched a piece of shrimp dumpling and put it in his mouth.

"If you can't eat it, don't eat it, be careful," Bai Binbin rolled his eyes, then changed his words, and smiled: "Heixia, can you recognize this thing?" ”

In fact, as soon as the shrimp dumplings appeared, Shen Xingliu was suddenly stunned, "Isn't this a cloud of shrimp dumplings?" ”

"What? Could it be that this is the shrimp dumpling we are looking for? Ahem, ahem..." Shui Sinian was chewing, surprised and choked.

Bai Binbin hurriedly stepped forward and reluctantly massaged him behind his back for a while before he got better.

The cloud shrimp dumplings are like shells, and the dough that wraps the shrimp paste is as light as a cloud, hence the name.

As if he wasn't quite sure, Shen Xingliu picked up the chopsticks, picked one up, and savored it.

Suddenly, his eyes opened, "That's right, this is it, where did you find it?" ”

At this time, Shen Xingliu's mood was extremely excited, and the major events that had been haunting his heart for many days finally had clues.

"Hehe, speaking of this shrimp dumpling, I actually found it by accident," Bai Binbin said while massaging Shui Sinian: "Heixia, do you remember the little girl who sold flowers?" ”

"Huh? Deputy Hall Master Bai, what you are talking about..." Shen Xingliu struggled to recall, "She seems to be called Xiaorui, right?" ”

After the massage, Bai Binbin patted Shui Sinian's back, hugged his fists and smiled: "Heixia, it's really a good memory!" ”

Today, when he went to buy camellia for the little girl, he accidentally found that their family was cooking, and what he made was this "cloud shrimp dumpling".

"So, their family should know the little wolf's background?" Shui Mo's eyes were happy, and he covered his mouth and said in surprise.

Shen Xingliu just wanted to get up and went to look for the little wolf, but was stopped by Bai Binbin.

"What's wrong? Deputy Hall Master Bai, what else do you have to tell? He couldn't help but frown, and his instinct told him that this was not a good thing...

Sure enough, Bai Binbin looked embarrassed, but he couldn't say it.

"Is it possible, people who know the little wolf's life experience have been..."

Shen Xingliu's eyes lit up, but there was still a little luck in the disappointment.

"How do you know?"

Bai Binbin could no longer hide the surprise in his heart, he was worthy of being a black man, but he then shook his head, "Although he is not dead, it is actually the same, Xiaorui's mother is crazy..."

"Crazy?"

Shen Xingliu, Shui Sinian, and Shui Mo suddenly exclaimed, "What's the matter? Let's talk about it! ”

"Well, well, let's talk about it, in fact, I also listen to the neighbors around me..."

Bai Binbin moved to sit on the round stool in front of the table, took a cup of fragrant tea poured by Shui Sinian, and took a sip.

After sorting out his thoughts a little, he seemed to be a little angry, and then slammed his fist on the table, "Xiaorui's mother was originally a cook in a rich family, and her skills are excellent..."

"But just nine years ago, that family was hit by a fire, and the family's whereabouts are unknown."

Shen Xingliu's whole body was agitated, and his lips trembled and asked, "That family is a little wolf?" ”

"This, I don't know," Bai Binbin shook his head, "Only Xiaorui's mother knows, and her mother also went crazy three years ago." ”

Xiaorui's mother's surname is Li, and her father's surname is Chen, because her former employer suddenly disappeared, so the two have been in charge of taking care of the property left by the rich family, looking forward to their return.

But just three years ago, the government seized their property on trumped-up charges, arrested them and imprisoned them, their father could not stand the torture and died, and their mother also became insane.

Now she can't even recognize Xiaorui, and she wants her to sell flowers on the street as a little girl and do some small business to make a living.

"Shhh Hah..."

The three of them were very worried when they heard it, what kind of crime was it?

Although they don't know it, they must have framed it, and as for the purpose, it is estimated that they want the property of their former employer.

"In addition, this rich family doesn't seem to be local to Lin'an, but it is very rich,"

Bai Binbin saw that everyone was silent, and then said: "After they came to Lin'an, they have been living in seclusion, and they have not even left their names, and they only have contact with Xiaorui's family on weekdays. ”

After some careful consideration, Shen Xingliu decided: "Don't tell the little wolf about this matter first, let's talk about it after I go to Xiaorui's house tomorrow." ”

"It's good!"

The three of them all agreed, so let's not give the little wolf hope yet, in case we fail to find his background in the end, the disappointment will be even greater.

However, what they didn't know was that at this time, in a dark corner not far away, a small black shadow cried into a tearful man...

......

Nothing was said all night.

Soon came the next day, Lin'an City was still shrouded in a fog, and a new day began with the shouting of the hawkers.

Xiaorui carried a high breakfast stall and skillfully came to the street to sell.

"Yo, Xiaorui, are you here again today?"

The vendors on the side greeted them warmly, and she happily responded to these uncles and aunts.

Since she was eight or nine years old, she had to take up this burden, going back and forth from street to alley, and she had already mingled with them.

"Xiaorui, here, the aunt has helped you occupy a position."

Looking at the familiar call, Xiao Rui smiled, "Aunt Jin, you came really early." ”

She answered sweetly, and then walked briskly, put down the stall, and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Aunt Jin looked at Xiaorui with a distressed face, "Silly boy, have you had breakfast?" ”

During the inquiry, he filled two oil cakes in his stall and handed them over.

Xiaorui, who was wiping her sweat, hurriedly shook her hand and said, "Ah, auntie, I only came after eating..."

"Oh roar, what's polite to my aunt, take it!"

Aunt Jin pretended to be angry, took her hand, and stuffed the oil cake into her hand.

"Actually, it's not there, it's just that Auntie, you help me on weekdays, you help me too much." Xiaorui lowered her head silently, half happy and sad in her heart.

"Ahh

Aunt Jin looked at the well-behaved Xiaorui in front of her, who was about the same age as her own child, and should have been a pearl in the palm of her hand.

Now I can't study, and I mingle with them all day long, and I am contaminated with a copper smell.

"Gollum..."

At this moment, a sound came from Xiao Rui's belly, and her face was flushed with shame.

Last night, when she was about to fall asleep about the dough and shrimp paste she needed for the next day, her mother suddenly fell ill.

In just a moment, Xiaorui was awakened and hurried to take care of her mother, and she was busy until the second half of the night.

So much so that I got up late the next day, and after a hurried wash, I hurriedly went out, but I didn't care about breakfast.

......

"Child, does it hurt?"

Aunt Jin's eyes were very keenly aware of the bite marks on Xiaorui's wrists, gently took her hand, blew, and asked.

But Xiaorui smiled nonchalantly: "It doesn't hurt, I've been used to it for a long time."

"Good boy, eat quickly, it won't taste good if it's cold," Aunt Jin said with a smile: "After a while, the guests will come." ”

"Eun..."

Xiaorui nodded, hid her little body behind the stall, squatted on the ground, and took a small bite of the oil cake, "Well, it's delicious, Aunt Jin's craftsmanship is as good as ever!" ”

"It's delicious, then eat more, see how thin you are like a monkey..."

Aunt Jin, who was praised, sneered and joked very much.

"Uh, do you have cloud shrimp dumplings here?"

As he spoke, the first guest came.

"Yes, yes, how many cages do you want?" When Xiaorui heard that a customer was coming, she stood up as soon as she was excited.

At this time, there was still a little white sesame seed on her shiny little mouth, which she licked into her mouth with her tongue and smiled embarrassedly.

"Hey, big brother, is that you? Why didn't that sister come last time? ”

As soon as Shen Xingliu arrived, Xiaorui recognized him, after all, this big brother was a big customer who bought her a thousand flowers in one go.

She was very impressed by this, and the people who traveled with him last night came to buy flowers again.

"Hehe, you still remember me," Shen Xingliu nodded and smiled: "Bring me two cages, it can be regarded as letting me find this cloud shrimp dumpling." ”

Immediately, Xiaorui put the half-eaten oil cake on the stall and opened the steamer.

"Listening to the little brother's accent, it doesn't seem to be from Lin'an, right?" Aunt Jin had some doubts in her heart, if someone in Lin'an City came for shrimp dumplings, it would not be strange.

"Oh hehe, yes, I'm from Yudu." Shen Xingliu generously admitted.

Xiaorui's movements in her hands were very skillful, and she took out the shrimp dumplings with chopsticks, without breaking the dough at all, and she could even be distracted and talked, saying:

"Huh? I didn't expect the reputation of my shrimp dumplings to spread to Yudu? ”

"Yes, I ate in a teahouse in Yudu before."

Shen Xingliu looked at the small crystal shells, and he was sure in his heart, he really didn't find a mistake, even the number of shrimp dumplings in that cage was exactly the same.

"There are two cages in total, ten cages, two cents each," Xiaorui skillfully divided the shrimp dumplings into two packs, and while tying them with ropes, she said, "I will charge you forty cents." ”

"Well, I'll give you half a penny, so you don't have to look for it." Shen Xingliu took the wrapped shrimp dumplings, took out the silver from his sleeve, and handed it to Xiaorui.

Unexpectedly, Xiaorui hurriedly shook her head and said: "How can this be, last time you bought flowers, big brother, I already took a big advantage, and this time I can't say anything." ”

As he spoke, Xiaorui opened the cash box, found ten cents, and gave it to Shen Xingliu before giving up.
