"Xiao Qi, what's going on outside!" Li's face was unprecedentedly pale, and sweat was oozing from her forehead, sliding down her cheeks, and her long-term malnutrition caused her body bones to be particularly bad, plus she was worried about Tang Xiaoqi's affairs, and her lips were as white as ashes.

"It's okay mother, don't worry, it's all prevaricated, the matchmaker sent me a box of things, where is my father working, I'll go over and take a look." Tang Xiaoqi asked while tucking the corners of the quilt for the Li family.

Li coughed twice: "Your father never told me where he went to work, it seems to be the east of the city, what are you going to do?" ”

"It's okay, I'll go take a look, tell my father, and by the way, go see what that county order is!"

"Little Seven ......"

"Don't worry, it's okay mother, I have my own measure!" Tang Xiaoqi raised a gentle smile and patted Tang Xiaojiu's head, "Take good care of my mother, if there is anything, go next door to find Aunt Wang, if they dare to come again, tell them that I will go up the mountain." ”

"Okay." Tang Xiaojiu nodded obediently, "Then when will you come back?" ”

"I'll be back tonight at the earliest, and I'll be back by noon tomorrow!"

"Xiao Jiu, cough, you go and find out the wooden box of your mother, cough cough ......" Li Shi picked up one arm and supported his body and pointed out the house, Tang Xiaoqi saw this, and hurriedly helped Li Shi to sit down.

"Ahem, you've grown up too, and that matchmaker's mother can't help much." Li turned out the wooden box, opened the lid on it, took out a cloth bag and a half the size, lifted the handkerchief layer by layer, took out a bracelet with fine workmanship, and brought it to Tang Xiaoqi's right wrist, "This, it was given to me by a Taoist priest who met not long after my mother gave birth to you, saying that there must be a catastrophe in your life, and you can save the day with her, and successfully dodge it, my mother looked at this, if I didn't give it to you, my mother would regret it for a lifetime." ”

Tang Xiaoqi carefully looked at the entire wooden bracelet the size of her wrist, slightly distracted, somewhat similar to the one she had carried since she was a child in modern times, with something like a Buddhist scripture engraved on it, as well as a blooming begonia flower, the petals that fell sporadically seemed to be saying that she was going to be frustrated by the wind and rain, and the lifelike appearance did not look like it was carved, but more like it was originally grown on the bracelet.

"It's not too late...... yes, of course it's not too late for her, but the kind and sensible girl called Tang Xiaoqi has already died, even if she exchanges it with ten such bracelets, she can't get it back, "Don't worry, mother, it'll be fine!" Tang Xiaoqi thought of the original gentle girl, pulled the corners of his mouth far-fetchedly, and spit out a few words with difficulty.

"Mother believes you, my Xiaoqi is the smartest, cough cough ......" Li suddenly coughed violently twice, listening to the posture as if he was going to cough out his lungs.

"Mother!" Tang Xiaojiu hurriedly handed over hot water and moistened Li's throat, "Mother, are you okay?" ”

Li waved his hand: "I'm fine, you go to your father, this matter must end as soon as possible." ”

Tang Xiaoqi nodded: "I will come back as soon as possible, and then bring you a Lang Zhong back." ”

Li Shi smiled lightly: "It's okay, it's just that I'm a little anxious this time, I know my body myself, don't waste money." ”

After preparing everything, Tang Xiaoqi found a piece of cloth and wrapped his head slightly, pretended to be a young woman, patted the bottom of the pot on his face evenly, and went to the box to take a bead hairpin and went out, and secretly went out of the village.

"Mother! Look at that Tang Xiaoqi! Annoyed like a shrew! Why did the county magistrate fall in love with her, a little slut! Tang Xiaowu sat cross-legged on the kang at home, complaining viciously.

"What do you think is a good thing to go to which county to go to! You can't even know if it's cheaper for you! Tang Xiaowu's mother, Zhao, pouted and said to Tang Xiaowu while knitting a sweater, "No matter how rich and rich you are, you can't go, when your brother is a showman, our family will go to the capital and still look up to him as a sesame official like him?" ”

"Mother, I know, I just can't get used to her arrogant appearance! It's like something, you haven't seen it, where did the matchmaker get the things in the box, oops, it's worth a lot, I see that Tang Xiaoqi's eyes are straight, who knows if he will marry that bad old man! Tang Xiaowu muttered indignantly, "It would be nice if that thing was all mine!" ”

"Confused!" Zhao Shi stretched out his hand and knocked on her head, "How can my daughter bring such a rustic thing, only she is worthy of it, and she is also worthy of that!" ”

"Yes, hahaha, mother, you said that when I am sixteen years old, I will be given a big silver hairpin!"

"Isn't it next year, you can do whatever you like?"

"Mother is so nice!" Tang Xiaowu lowered his head, a big smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and he thought fiercely in his heart: Tang Xiaoqi, why are you fighting with me?

Tang Xiaoqi on the other side finally walked to the gate of the city after "a lot of hardships".

"Hey, what are you doing!"

Tang Xiaoqi pulled the cloth that wrapped his hair, tried his best to show a stupid attitude, and replied: "I went to the city to join my relatives, big brother is convenient, let me in." ”

The official guarding the city gate couldn't help but pout when he looked at Tang Xiaoqi's honest appearance, secretly made a gesture to ask for money, and said dissatisfiedly: "I don't know the rules at all, come and make a record!" ”

"...... "It's not the eldest brother, you are too blatant, Tang Xiaoqi couldn't help but complain secretly in his heart, but he still obediently took out a little broken silver, "Big brother is convenient, I'm in a hurry, this registration ...... Just skip it! ”

The official secretly stuffed the broken silver into his sleeve, straightened his waist and said seriously: "Don't be stupid in a hurry, let's leave quickly!" ”

Tang Xiaoqi hurriedly nodded and left, if she wasn't afraid of being recognized by the people of the county order, how could she be so low and lose the broken silver! Once in the city, she asked everywhere where she could do odd jobs.

"Boom ......"

"Take a look! The 5th anniversary of the opening of King Fook House has begun, and there are many discounts and benefits! Take a look at ......"
