Chapter 382: Chatting at the dinner table
Everyone returned to the village together, and Fu You followed Lin Manliu and others to the post station, waiting for their handwritten letter to worship the village.
And Qiao Kesi and Lang Fengyan returned to the mansion where they lived first.
Qiao Kesi, who had just closed the door, looked at Lang Fengyan who was about to enter the house to rest.
She whispered, "Sister Lang..."
Lang Fengyan stopped, didn't turn around immediately, just looked sideways at the back.
"I've tried it for you, and I can protect myself when I'm away from home!"
Qiao Kesi continued to speak: "Linked to the affairs of the rivers and lakes in recent days, Senior Brother Lin's trip will definitely be extremely dangerous, so..."
Lang Fengyan listened to her voice, and had to scratch her head and turn around.
"He just asked you to help deliver the message, so why worry so much? Besides, aren't you afraid that the Sword Casting Peak will be implicated? ”
Faced with Lang Fengyan's question, Qiao Kesi fell silent.
But soon, she raised her head again, and her gaze was firmly in the direction of the station.
Qiao Kesi said: "I was transferred out of here before, and coupled with the fact that the old Si clan returned to Sword Casting Peak, in fact, I already understand that some things have happened..."
Before the sword appreciation conference, the care of the Fengjie area was decided by the main vein of the Sword Casting Peak.
When the sword appreciation conference happened unexpectedly, a large number of Si disciples left, and Li Junce took over here.
That Li worshipper didn't care about these poor and remote places at all.
If it weren't for the remnants of Sword Casting Peak, I'm afraid this place would have been poisoned a long time ago...
Until the matter of Xunhan Mountain was revealed, everything in the peak was returned to Grandpa Qiao's care.
Whether it is the Qiao family or the Li family, they all need to follow Grandpa Qiao's instructions now, and these towns and villages that were sheltered by the Casting Sword Peak in the past can be reconnected.
Because of this, for Qiao Kesi himself, he gradually discovered some clues in the peak.
For example, some of the side children of the Li family began to disappear, or the faces of the Qiao family before could no longer be seen.
Even she herself was transferred from the peak and arranged here.
Maybe really, it's going to change.
Lang Fengyan looked at Qiao Kesi's expression, and could only sigh helplessly.
She opened her mouth and said: "I need to talk about something ugly here, I am just a guest of the Qiao family, and it is only that Uncle Qiao was kind to me in the past. ”
Qiao Kesi nodded in response: "I know all this, but Kesi still wants to... Sister Lang was able to protect Senior Brother Lin's way. ”
Seeing that Lang Fengyan didn't answer, Qiao Kesi's red lips were tightened, and his fingers were intertwined, looking very sad.
"I don't know what to think... What does his life or death have to do with you? ”
Lang Fengyan left the next sentence, turned around and entered the house directly, and closed the door at the same time.
In the huge mansion, only Qiao Kesi was left independent.
Now there are a lot of matters in the Sword Casting Peak, and although she herself lives here, she also needs to help deal with the things in the peak.
is already too busy to take care of himself, even if he wants to help, he is powerless.
It wasn't long before another sound came from the room.
"That kid also said that he won't return to Yijian Villa for the time being, so I should go and deliver the letter for you, and I can follow as long as I can on the road!"
Hearing Lang Fengyan's voice, Qiao Kesi was a little stunned at first, but quickly reacted.
She shouted happily, "Thank you, Sister Lang!" ”
Lang Fengyan in the house muttered in a low voice: "As for being so happy? ”
......
At the same time, in the hall of the post station.
Lin Manliu handed over the written letter to Fu You, and the letter only wrote that she wanted to visit Yijian Villa and visit Ye Dang by the way.
Originally, the boy in the short shirt wanted to add a few strokes to inform him of the situation, but when he picked up the pen, the boy gave up the idea again.
For Jiang Yanlin's matter, it is still too special, and it is the best choice to have the opportunity to explain to the old liar in person in the future.
The short-shirted young man said: "After Fu Nuxia goes east, you can go straight to Hangzhou, but try not to state your purpose on the way!" ”
After all, there are still many enemies in the Jiangnan of Yijian Villa.
Now that the news of the death of the owner of Xue Sanzhuang, I am afraid that the Jiangnan area has already known about it, and there will always be people who will target Yijian Villa again.
In the villa, there is Mr. Qinglan and the old liar sitting together, and they are not afraid.
But the Fu Nuxia who went to Yijian Villa this time must not be caught in an unjust situation.
Fu You responded: "Lin Shaoxia's worries, I understand them, I will definitely pay attention to the way back!" ”
As she spoke, she had already clasped her hands into fists and saluted Lin Manliu and the others, wanting to say goodbye.
The shopkeeper Zhang, who was napping at the counter of the post station, suddenly woke up at this time.
He laughed out loud: "It's getting late and it's raining, how about this woman stay at the inn for one night and wait until tomorrow to hurry?" No money! ”
Fu You looked at the shopkeeper Zhang with some vigilance, although Lin Manliu had explained that the shopkeeper Zhang of the post station here could be trusted, but at this time, she was still a little wary of these "hospitable".
Lin Manliu looked at the sky outside the house, as if it was about to rain.
He also spoke up: "It's not in a hurry to go to Hangzhou, if Fu Nuxia is not in a hurry, it's best to stay overnight." ”
Fu You listened to their words and glanced at the canopy outside the door.
The girl in blue pondered for a while before nodding her head: "Then stay here for one night, and I will leave by myself early tomorrow morning." ”
The shopkeeper behind the counter immediately became energetic, and slapped one hand on his thigh.
He shouted, "It's a lively day! A few people can come downstairs later, and I will call the back kitchen to cook good dishes for the big guy! “
Looking at the smile on the middle-aged man's face, Lin Manliu and the others also laughed.
In the past six or seven years, it has been the protection and favor of the Sword Casting Peak, and the village has finally gained stability.
Now, I have met these rangers who walk the rivers and mountains with swords, but I can't make his old bones happy!
Lin Manliu said: "The kid himself will also get a few hands, and he will come to the big brother in the back kitchen in a while!" ”
When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately applauded.
"Well said! Say! Add a few more dishes than anything else! ”
Jiang Yanlin raised his hands and began to coax.
"Brother Liu, I also want to help, I can too!"
Lin Manliu smiled and looked at the shopkeeper, who nodded and walked towards the outside of the post station.
"Everything! Then I'm not idle, I went to the village entrance to find Aunt Wang to ask for some good tea, and the shop was a little stumbling! ”
The young man in the short shirt couldn't help but feel warm when he looked at this happy scene.
It's been a long time, and I haven't had such a good time.
Since the incident in Qingzhuang, everyone in Yijian Villa has started to get busy.
Whether you are walking outside or living in the village, everyone has their own things to accomplish.
For Lin Manliu himself, at this moment, he also has his own things.
After Jiang Yanlin's matter is properly handled, he must inform the villa of the things related to him.
Two hours later, it was already dark.
In the hall of the post station, several candles were lit at this time, illuminating the entire hall more than in the daytime.
Xiao Er chatted with the shopkeeper Zhang, this is too much candle.
As a result, I was scolded by the shopkeeper, saying that these candles were placed and I didn't know how to light them until the Year of the Monkey, so if I don't light them today, don't you keep them for you to light when you marry your daughter-in-law?
Xu is very happy to see the shopkeeper today, and the little second ghost replied with a smile.
said that he could also wait for him to marry his daughter-in-law, and the candle money would be deducted from the salary.
This sentence almost didn't give the shopkeeper of the post station a smile.
Shopkeeper Zhang slapped Xiao Er's head with a slap, and then added another sentence, no one may want your cowardice to plug the door upside down!
Xiao Er could also hear that the shopkeeper was happy, and joked with him, so he hurriedly continued to clean up the chairs and stools.
Just when Xiao Er hadn't taken a few steps, he heard the voice of the shopkeeper again.
"When you're going to marry your daughter-in-law that day... I'll give you the whole kid too, and you won't deduct your salary! ”
"Is the shopkeeper serious?!"
"If you don't believe it, don't hear it!"
"Thank you to the shopkeeper !! first"
Lin Manliu looked at the laughter and scolding of the shopkeeper Zhang and the junior second, and thought of Brother Dong and Shopkeeper Yang for no reason.
Jiang Yan saw his eldest brother Liu a little distracted, and most of them guessed what he was thinking.
"Brother Liu himself said before that the dead are gone, and the living are gone... We should look at the future. ”
The short-shirted boy nodded and said, "yes, I see." ”
Shopkeeper Zhang turned his head to look at Lin Manliu, and he shouted: "Little brother, do you want to call those two distinguished guests?" ”
Lin Manliu immediately responded: "I had the idea of going before, and when everything is cleaned up, the kid will go!" ”
Shopkeeper Zhang said with a smile: "There's nothing left, little brother just go, and the dishes will be served when he comes back!" ”
The short-shirted young man glanced at the others, not only Jiang Yanlin and Shen Duchao, but even Fu You nodded to him.
"It's okay, the kid will go back as soon as he goes!"
After finishing speaking, Lin Manliu trotted towards the mansion where Qiao Kesi and Lang Fengyan lived.
The people at the post station didn't wait long, and the three of them reappeared in front of the post house.
Lang Fengyan looked at the scene in the post station, and began to talk to Qiao Kesi beside him while smacking her lips.
"Sister Kesi, look at the pomp, you didn't do it when you came!"
Qiao Kesi explained: "I also concealed my identity with the shopkeeper Zhang before, and I explained it to him later..."
Lang Fengyan was the first to enter the post station, and when she heard the sound, the shopkeeper also stepped forward to greet her.
"Today, I'm just going to wash the dust for a few people, and it can be regarded as making up for the supplies that fell before!"
Qiao Kesi said: "Uncle Zhang's kindness, Kesi understands it!" ”
Lin Manliu also followed up and said: "I still have to thank the shopkeeper today!" ”
Shopkeeper Zhang looked at the thanks of the two and immediately put on a face.
"You two are not happy, why don't you just have a meal together?"
The short-shirted boy hurriedly answered: "Then it's better to be respectful, let's have a good time today!" ”
The shopkeeper waved his hand and said, "Eat as much as you want!" Let go of eating! ”
For the scene in front of them, Lang Fengyan and Qiao Kesi glanced at each other, both of them smiled, and then entered the table together.
At the dinner table, most of the things that everyone talked about were trivial matters, and they chatted happily.
Xiao Er talked about the interesting things about the festival over the years, and when he talked about the happy place, he began to give the shopkeeper a look, ready to get the wine behind the counter.
As a result, he was slapped again, followed by the shopkeeper's preaching words.
"Didn't you see the tea cakes you got from Granny Wang? This will still drink, how many jars can you drink? ”
Regarding the fact that there was no wine on the table, it was not that the shopkeeper picked it up, but Lin Manliu personally proposed it.
Even if today's events are festive, they should not be mistaken by drinking, and after tomorrow they will have to continue their journey, so they will replace the wine with tea.
Granny Wang was the old woman Lin Manliu met when they entered the village to ask for directions.
At this time, watching everyone praise her tea cakes, those eyes were full of smiles that couldn't be hidden.
After Lin Manliu and the others devoured it, it didn't take long for the table to be a mess, and there was no waste at all.
Tea and food are full, and the rest is small talk.
At first, they were still talking about what they had seen and heard when they traveled far away, but the direction changed as they spoke.
The first person to be pointed out was Fu Nuxia, who was not very familiar with everyone.
The girl in blue couldn't take Lang Fengyan's faint words at once, so she had to shake her head and admit it.
"I haven't seen what Sister Lang said..."
Lang Fengyan looked at Fu You's expression and liked it even more.
She was about to make some more stupid talk and continue to make things difficult for the girl in blue, but was finally stopped by Qiao Kesi.
"Sister Lang, don't continue to embarrass Sister Fu You..."
"Got it! Got it! ”
Lin Manliu secretly took a sip of tea on the side, wanting to hide his smile, but was soon caught by Qiao Kesi.
In the ears of the young man in the short shirt, Senior Sister Qiao's words suddenly sounded.
"Sister Lang asked so much before, I don't know if Senior Brother Lin has come all the way, has there been a favorite girl?"
Lin Manliu looked at Qiao Kesi, the tea bowl was still gagged, and he nodded silently.
Qiao Kesi breathed a sigh of relief, and said loudly: "Then if you have a chance in the future, you can bring that girl to the senior sister to see!" ”
Lin Manliu responded: "Okay! ”
