Chapter 283: Seeing Through It, Not Saying It
The shopkeeper was taken half a step back, the soldier was not faster than ordinary, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything.
Can......
The businessman, who really didn't want to lose money, turned his head and looked at Su Qingtian's room without giving up.
The guard grabbed the hilt of the knife and was about to teach a lesson, when suddenly there was a sound of the door opening behind him.
"I invited them to eat."
Su Qingtian held the wooden tray, which contained untouched dishes, and walked straight to the shopkeeper and handed it out, "Take these to them too, don't waste them." ”
Looking at the uneaten food, the two guards looked slightly startled, and one of them took the wooden tray one by one.
"Su Qianjin, these are already the best food in Liuzhou City, and it was arranged by my master, how can you take them for beggars at will?!"
The tone was very stern, as if questioning, mixed with a hint of unpredictable panic.
The girl looked up with an ignorant face, looked at the guard and said, "I've been vomiting and diarrhea after these days, and now no matter how good the food is, it's hard to swallow, is it possible that you want to force me to eat it all?" ”
The guards who were questioned were stunned, they were just guards in the end, and even the people under the prince did not dare to provoke any nobles.
What's more, this important person who is going to be sent to kiss, how dare he say it if he can't force it.
The two glanced at each other, and the fierce guard said unwillingly, "No matter what, this is my master's heart, even if Su Qianjin can't use it, she can't give it to beggars, isn't this a fold in my master's face?!" ”
He thought in his heart that even if he didn't eat now, he would naturally have to eat a few bites when he was hungry at night, which was better than sending it out now.
"My grandfather has been stationed at the border for many years, and one of his family mottos is not to waste a drop of rice, water and food."
Su Qingtian's eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp light, and he looked straight at the two of them.
"It's not easy to guard the border, and the people here are also suffering, so it's impossible for me to watch this food go to waste."
"If you have to stop me from delivering these foods, then ask your master to judge whether his will is more important or the people's hunger!"
A few words poked at the guard's life, don't say anything about waste and waste, if it really alarms His Royal Highness the Prince, can the two of their heads be saved?
A bad charge can peel off their skin!
"Since Su Qianjin has no appetite, just reward them."
Another guard hurriedly played a round game, grabbed the tray and stuffed it to the frightened half-dead shopkeeper on the side, "Your golden body cannot be easily damaged, if you don't use some, I'm afraid it will be difficult to reach the capital safely." ”
"Why don't you order them to make some ginseng soup rice porridge? It's also good to use less fruit. ”
"Okay, then I'll bother you to bring some ginseng soup."
Seeing through it or not, Su Qingtian whispered to the shopkeeper, "This is fifty taels of silver tickets, and it is the meal money for the group of beggars below." ”
"But you must go down and hand it over to the strong man who took out ten taels of silver in front of everyone, and you can't let a group of beggars mistake it for the daughter of my dignified general's family, and don't talk about it."
The shopkeeper broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly took the silver ticket with both hands with a smile on his face, bent down and went downstairs with a wooden pallet.
As he walked, he muttered in his heart, now the daughter raised by a wealthy family has a really strange temper, and she will invite a group of unrelated flowers to dinner, and it will be fifty taels as soon as she makes a move!
No, plus the ten taels that went first, a full sixty taels of silver!
It was difficult to guess the thoughts of the rich lady, so the shopkeeper shook his head and stopped thinking about it, and hurriedly walked downstairs.
After the guards watched Su Qingtian return to the room obediently, the two glanced at each other vigilantly, no matter how you look at this Su Qianjin's behavior, it is too weird, and it can even be said that it is deliberate.
But for a while, I couldn't think of the other party's so-called reason.
"It always feels like there's a cheat!"
"It doesn't matter what tricks she wants to do, as long as she doesn't get out of the house."
"Do you want to continue ......the ginseng soup for a while?"
"Rub the medicine on the edge of the bowl, and as long as it's not in the soup, you won't find anything."
The two lowered their voices and discussed, if this mission could not be completed, the two of them would not see the sun tomorrow.
The shopkeeper who went downstairs casually put the wooden tray on one of the tables, picked up the silver ticket and handed it to the strong man according to Su Qingtian's request.
"Miss's reward for eating, take it quickly."
Looking at the silver ticket in front of him, the strong man was actually in place.
Seeing that the other party was delayed, the impatient shopkeeper grabbed the strong man's hand and stuffed it in, turned his head and hurriedly went to the back kitchen to urge the dishes, and by the way, he stewed ginseng soup for Su Qingtian.
Dare to forget anything else, he forgot about this matter, and I'm afraid that this store won't be able to keep it.
"Fifty taels! That's a silver ticket of fifty taels! ”
The beggar who was close to the beggar had sharp eyes, and when he saw the number on the silver ticket, he immediately cheered, "Today is really a fairy, we want to eat happily!" ”
The other beggars cheered when they heard that there was so much money, and slapped the table happily and shouted, after all, such a great and good person is rare for them in ten years.
The strong man looked at the fifty taels of silver tickets in his hand, and his throat rolled up and down.
In the past, he also lived a life of fine clothes and food, and a casual meal cost hundreds of taels of silver, and the degree of food and clothing was even more unrestrained, and silver was just a random object in his eyes.
But one day, the mysterious death of his parents brought a series of irresistible blows to his life, and the originally rich family property was swallowed up by thieves hiding in the shadows, and he and his younger brother embarked on a road of escape and pursuit.
His poor little brother was cut off by the man in black, if it weren't for his brute strength kung fu, the two of them would have regretted it for the rest of their lives.
In order to avoid pursuit, the two can only become sour beggars who can't see their faces clearly, begging for food while trying to track down the real culprit.
He is a son who lives a luxurious life, and he really went to the street to beg for a living, only to find that three meals and food and clothing were a problem, and he didn't want to expect extravagance and revenge.
As the days of wandering lengthened, the strong man found things in himself and his little brother that he couldn't explain, but couldn't resist.
It was as if they were haunted by poor ghosts, and even if the wages he had earned for his hard work were immediately lost, or stolen or robbed, they would not remain with him before dawn the next day.
These unspeakable bad luck entwined the two of them all the time, and they were also the shackles pressed by the strong man's heart.
So today, when he received the ten taels of silver given by Su Qingtian, he decided to take the other beggars to eat clean.
Since you can't keep it, it's better to have a good meal!
"Big brother." The young man looked at the strong man's distracted appearance, and reached out to hold his big hand full of calluses, "The past is over, we have already walked half the way, and we will definitely arrive smoothly." ”
"As long as we live to the capital and find Su Xiaoqianjin successfully, we will not only be able to turn evil into good fortune, but also find the murderer of our parents!"
