Chapter 044: Familiarity
The next day, Xie Mian planned to go to Qipinju to have a look.
After getting out of the carriage, Xie Mian found that Qipinju was a little different from the past, and Uncle Chang, who was working in it, had sharp eyes, and when he saw Xie Mian coming, he hurriedly put down the things in his hand and walked out of the door.
Xie Mian looked at the people coming and going in Qipinju, and was a little puzzled, "Uncle Chang, what's wrong?" ”
Uncle Chang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Xie Mian: "That's the case, didn't we bring back the dead brothers yesterday, and today I told them what happened, asked them, and they said that they planned to bury them in person, and now they are discussing this matter." ”
"Uncle Chang, do you need my help?" Xie Mian frowned.
Uncle Chang waved his hand and said, "No, no, it's all a trivial matter, oh yes, Miss Xie, why did you come to Qipin today?" ”
When Xie Mian saw him asking, he said, "Last night's incident, please keep Uncle Chang secret." ”
Uncle Chang was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled, "Although Uncle Chang is old, he still wants to live longer." I know that the person behind this Su Tang is not simple, and in the future, if I find Boss Song, I will ask Miss Xie! ”
Xie Mian breathed a sigh of relief, she knew that Uncle Chang's appearance was forcing her to go, his nature was not like that.
Thinking of this, Xie Mian said: "Leave this matter to me, you and the rest of the Qipinju just treat it as if you never knew about it, how about it?" ”
Uncle Chang also knew the importance of this matter, and if Xie Mian could find Song Qiqi, he would also be very happy!
Uncle Chang nodded cautiously1 and said, "Miss Xie, you can rest assured." ”
"Okay, since I've reached the seventh grade, I'll try your dim sum again." Xie Mian suddenly remembered the taste of chestnut crisp that day, and couldn't help but look forward to it, "The Qipinju opened in the seventh year of the Song Dynasty, can there be chestnut crisp for sale?" ”
Uncle Chang thought about it carefully and replied, "Yes, Miss Xie wants to eat?" ”
Xie Mian nodded.
"Miss Xie come with me."
Xie Mian said: "Okay." ”
and then followed behind Uncle Chang.
At this time, the people of Qipinju were crying and weeping bitterly at the few corpses placed in the hall, Mo Wucang was also in this group of people, and his mood at the moment could only be described by the four words of disbelief.
His Highness's operation failed last night!
At the same time, because of the failure, early this morning, Mo Wucang received a flying pigeon message from His Royal Highness, and the content of the letter was all about whether Mo Wucang had not found out the news and had not yet gained their trust.
Mo Wucang quickly replied, just now, he received a letter from His Highness, His Highness said that last night was the chance to win, but a master and a woman were killed halfway.
The woman's martial arts are still shallow, but the man's martial arts are very powerful, and he killed a few secret guards alone.
Mo Wucang regretted a little in his heart, if he hadn't underestimated the enemy yesterday, I am afraid that he would not have received His Highness's number today!
However, he was a little curious, who was the woman and the man who suddenly appeared, he obviously didn't hear this stubble in Chang Shuli's plan last night.
He looked at these people who couldn't cry for themselves, and a little disdain grew in his heart.
Xie Mian had already walked into Qipinju at this time, and when he saw that everyone was crying and mourning, he was also a little infected by this atmosphere, and he felt a little sad in his heart.
However, at this time, Xie Mian found something wrong.
Because not far from the crowd, there was a young man dressed in cloth, staring at everyone with a cold face, as if the gods looked down on mortal humans.
Xie Mian was a little puzzled, walked over, looked closely, and found that the boy was born very well, with red lips and white teeth, but the only thing that was not perfect was that the skin on his hands and neck was covered with dense scars like insects.
Xie Mian was a little puzzled, stretched out his hand, and patted the young man's shoulder.
Mo Wucang, who was thinking about his own affairs, was slapped coldly, feeling a little annoyed, thinking that it was Xiao Wu's fault, but when he wanted to turn around and shout angrily, he was stunned.
The woman in front of her was whiter than snow, her eyebrows were picturesque, her black hair hung down quietly on her shoulders, and she was wearing a Zhao Fanyue dress, which made her ruddy lips more and more vivid.
Xie Mian saw that he was stunned, and said loudly: "Are you this new guy from the seventh grade?" ”
At the funeral of Qipinju, the people of Qipinju must be sad, but seeing the indifferent look of the little boy in front of her, Xie Mian felt a little shocked in her heart, but at the same time, she couldn't believe that a child would become like this.
The girl's voice was a little puzzled, like a tinkling spring in winter, Mo Wucang had seen such a clean and pure woman for the first time, but she didn't apply any rouge powder. Seeing her staring at herself again, I couldn't help but redden.
Xie Mian saw that he didn't speak for a long time, and was about to ask again, but the boy said to her tremblingly, "Yes." ”
The tone was pitiful, and the appearance was very fragile, as if it was as easy to knead and wrinkle as white paper, Xie Mian actually had a word in his head at this time,
White Lotus.
Oh my God, Xie Mian couldn't help but sigh, if this boy was a girl, he would definitely be admired by most men.
Xie Mian asked again: "Aren't you sad when you see someone die?" ”
Mo Wucang had a very indifferent view of life and death in his heart, but at this moment, Xie Mian's question made him puzzled for the first time.
If he faced life and death, would he really not be in a mood at all?
Mo Wucang thought, there may be, and it may just be for His Highness.
Because he is absolutely loyal to His Highness.
Mo Wucang thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I will be sad, but I will only be sad for the people I care about." ”
Hearing him say this, Xie Mian breathed a sigh of relief.
If the boy in front of him says that he is not sad, then it is scary!
Xie Mian felt that the boy's face was very raw, and he quickly asked, "What is your name, and why did you get into the seventh grade?" ”
Mo Wucang looked at the round eyes of the girl in front of him, and said in a daze: "My name is Mo Wucang, my father's surname is Mo Wucang, and there is no place in the world. ”
This sentence was like a dazzling light pouring into Xie Mian's internal organs, Xie Mian couldn't believe it, she raised her hands and covered her mouth tightly, and a word full of doubts came out of her throat, as if squeezed out of a crack in a stone.
"You, your name is Mo Wucang?!"
Looking at the disbelief expression of the girl in front of him, Mo Wucang felt what it was like to be flustered for the first time, he was a little at a loss, and asked in a daze, "What's wrong?" ”
Xie Mian linked Mo Wuxing and Mo Wucang together, because in the original book, Mo Wuxing's sister-in-law was called Mo Wucang.
It is rumored that this person's drug-making skills are extremely superb, and he is indifferent, misogynistic, dislikes men, and is only loyal to the male protagonist.
And in the matter of the male protagonist ascending to the throne, he has made great contributions. It's just that the male protagonist Dugu Jiu is suspicious, and after ascending to the throne, he gradually distanced himself from Mo Wucang, and later found an excuse to kill him.
Xie Mian sighed regretfully, and this action was fully visible to Mo Wucang, and he was a little puzzled.
Why did the woman in front of him look at him as if she was looking at an old man?
However, this is the first time they have met.
Despite this, Mo Wucang still didn't ask.
Xie Mian looked at Mo Wucang deeply, and said softly, "There is another question you haven't answered." ”
Mo Wucang was stunned, "What's the problem?" ”
Xie Mian chuckled: "That's why you came to Qipin." ”
It turned out to be this. Mo Wucang said truthfully: "I was a beggar on the street, and Boss Song saw that I was pitiful, so he took me to Qipinju and asked me to do a job here where I could make a living." ”
Xie Mian frowned, "When you saw him, what was unusual about him?" ”
Mo Wucang naturally didn't say more clues about Song Qiqi's disappearance, and said softly: "You haven't told me what your name is?" ”
Xie Mian, who was immersed in sorting out the fact that Song had disappeared for seven years, was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "The surname is Xie Mingmian, thanks to his father's surname, and there is another person who thinks about the distance." ”
"Xie Mian?" Mo Wucang was stunned and read these words, Xie Mian, Mianmian thought far away, it is an excellent name!
Mo Wucang raised his hand to make a compilation, "Miss Xie, I'm offended." ”
Who knew that Xie Mian had a strange look in his eyes, and said softly: "Your tone of voice seems to be your sister, but I look at your appearance, and you shouldn't be older than me, but you can tell me, how old are you this year?" ”
Mo Wucang blushed, a little hesitant to say the truth, but looking at Xie Mian's blushing face, he couldn't bear to hide it in his heart, "In the next eleven and two." ”
Xie Mian said: "I'm eleven and thirteen this year, one year older than you, why don't you call me Sister Sheng?" ”
Xie Mian originally regretted the ending of Mo Wucang in the original book, so he joked that he never thought that he would really scream, so he didn't have hope in his heart.
Who knew that the handsome and extraordinary young man in front of him was like a crown of jade, and he really said that sister. For a moment, Xie Mian felt as if he had crossed the sunshine of June, the snow of December, the wind of September, and the fragrance of March.
Mo Wucang was also very shy, after all, this was the first time he had called his sister to a girl's family.
He has no father or mother, and His Royal Highness adopted him since he was a child. And His Royal Highness only warned him not to call him a brother.
So he never knew what kind of emotion family affection was.
At this moment, he really naively thought that this girl he had never met and had just met at the moment was his sister.
Xie Mian was embarrassed to be yelled, but he still wanted to ask him something, so he grabbed his sleeve and went to the cubicle.
I just wanted to ask something, but Xiao Wu came over with a plate of food at this time, "Miss Xie, this is the chestnut crisp that Uncle Chang made for you." ”
Xie Mian choked a sentence in his throat, took it with a smile on his face, and thanked him.
I have to say that these seven chestnut crisps are really good. When you bite into it, it is extremely soft, the taste is delicate, the lips and teeth are fragrant, and the aftertaste is endless.
Looking at Mo Wucang next to him, Xie Mian handed over the chestnut crisp, "Do you want to taste it?" ”
Since it was Xie Mian's request, Mo Wucang was embarrassed to refuse, so he picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.
Xie Mian looked at his slightly dilated pupils, with a smile in his eyes, "Isn't it delicious?" ”
Xiao Wu thought that Mo Wucang would refuse Xie Mian's feeding, but at this time, he saw that Mo Wucang not only did not resist, but accepted it obediently, and he was a little stunned.
In the end, he was young, so he really said it out of his mouth,
"Sister Mian, usually Brother Mo is cold to Xiao Wu and others, Xiao Wu thought that Brother Xiao Mo's temperament was like this, but I didn't expect Brother Xiao Mo to be different to Sister Mian!"
Xie Mian felt a little funny, she looked at Mo Wucang with a smile in her eyes, and asked, "Are you cold to others?" ”
Mo Wucang looked at the girl in front of him with a smile as soft as spring water in April, a little shy, and said in a low voice.
