Chapter 52: Mad Cow Village
The valley lord is pretending to be confused, so many people in the Divine Doctor Valley have daughters, do you want me to call them all over and ask? This is clearly not going to work.
"That girl calls herself Mu Qingqing, I don't know whose girl it is? Can you please ask the valley lord to find her and meet with me? King Qi didn't know what was wrong with him, and he was so persistent in this matter.
"Chu Feng, you go and find Madame." The valley lord spoke. "To tell you the truth, I'm obsessed with medical skills, and I really can't remember the young people in the valley, so I asked my wife if she knew this person."
"I'm tired of the valley master." King Qi picked up the teacup and drank it in small sips, this was ready to wait.
"Madam, the valley lord called you over, it seems that it was because of Miss's business." Chu Feng was not a fool, and he recounted what had happened before to Mrs. Gu Lord.
"That's right. Chu Feng, you go out immediately to find someone for me to come back, explain to her, and when you come, you will say that her name is Mu Qingqing, and she is the daughter of a medicine farmer in this medicine valley. The valley lord's wife said to Chu Feng.
"Yes, ma'am, I'll do it." Chu Feng also knew that what this King Qi was looking for was Xiao Qingqing, the righteous daughter of the valley lord. But in the few days they were in Los Angeles, they hadn't met King Qi at all, how could King Qi know Miss, no, on the last day, it seemed that someone came to invite Miss, saying that the prince had been invited, could it be that it was King Qi?
After a while, the valley master and his wife slowly came to the front hall.
"Husband, I heard that you were looking for me, it turned out that there was a distinguished guest from the valley?" The valley lord's wife said. "Ziyu, you go to the kitchen to get a few pastries, and go to get the best dragon well and soak it for the guests."
Then he turned around and said to King Qi with an apologetic face. "I'm sorry, my husband is obsessed with studying medical skills, and he doesn't take care of things much, but he neglects your guests."
"Well—" King Qi said. The tea that the girl brought up just now is already a good tea, even if you pick it, you can't make a mistake in picking it. Of course, the most important thing now is to figure out the identity of "Miss Mu".
"Madam, did you ever know that there is a woman named Mu Qingqing in this valley?" The valley lord asked.
"There is such a person, twenty-eight years old, since he was a child in the valley, he has never been out of the medical valley, a few days ago when he got married in the morning, I also saw it, I don't know why my husband mentioned her."
"It's King Qi who wants to find that woman." The valley lord said. "Since this is the case, I will ask someone to find that person and show King Qi if it is the person he is looking for." As he spoke, he ordered someone to find "Mu Qingqing".
Although it is said that there is such a person in the valley, how does he feel that the person who comes here will not be "Miss Mu"? Let's see someone first. "Then it's tiring, this king doesn't know that your son is married, and he hasn't prepared a congratulatory gift in advance, this can be regarded as a heart of this king." King Qi took out a short dagger from himself, which was decorated with several sapphires, which was not ordinary at first glance.
"King Qi is polite." As she spoke, the valley lord's wife asked her to put things away. Knowing Xiao Qingqing's relationship with King Qi, the valley lord's wife didn't like King Qi no matter how she looked at it.
"Madam, I brought it to you." While speaking, "Mu Qingqing" had already come.
"I've seen Madame, but I don't know what happened when Madame is looking for me?" "Mu Qingqing" respectfully saluted the valley owner's wife.
"Qingqing, this is King Qi, I have seen the prince." The valley lord's wife said.
"The folk girl has seen the prince." "Mu Qingqing" said obediently. She was indeed the daughter of a medicine farmer in the valley, and when she saw Chu Feng, the eldest disciple of the valley master, she was both surprised and excited. After listening to Chu Feng's words, she agreed without hesitation.
"Lord Wang, this is Mu Qingqing, is this the person the Lord is looking for?" The valley lord's wife spoke.
"Madam, this is not the person this king is looking for, presumably this king is mistaken." King Qi felt as if it was the valley lord who deliberately hid Mu Qingqing and found someone to replace him.
Sooner or later, he would find the "Mu girl", and he was not in a hurry at this moment.
……
Xiao and the three of them took advantage of the darkness to leave the Medical Valley, and in the dark night, the cries of wild beasts echoed in the valley.
"Miss, why don't we go back." Cai'er's voice trembled a little.
"Cai'er, if you don't want to leave with us, you can go back to the Medical Valley." Xiao said softly.
She is Miss's maid, Miss is no longer in the Medical Valley, what is she in the Medical Valley? Besides, it is her duty to protect and take care of Miss, how can she leave Miss.
"Miss, I'll go with you, don't leave Cai'er behind." Cai'er didn't care about the objection, and followed Xiao Qingqing intently, because the mountain road was getting more and more difficult to walk.
Xiao Baozi lay comfortably in Xiao Qing's arms, yawning.
About the morning, they came to a village.
"Miss, there are people living here, I'll go get some food for you and the little boy first." Cai'er said.
"Well, go to the farmer in front and ask." Xiao nodded lightly, and after a night's journey, he was indeed a little hungry.
"Auntie, do you have any dry food, let's buy some with you." Cai'er knocked on the door and asked.
"Girl, I have dry food here, I'm afraid you won't get used to it." The eldest lady said heartily, this eldest lady's husband's family name is Chen, and everyone calls her Aunt Chen.
The low houses, made of mud and thatch, are somewhat crumbling, and as far as the eye can see, the village seems to look like this. It doesn't seem that the standard of living here is very high.
This place is not very far from the capital, how can the standard of living here be so low? Xiao thought softly.
"Uh-" Cai'er didn't know how to talk, although she was a maid, the food was good, she had never seen real poverty, she didn't know what the dry food in the old lady's house looked like.
"Auntie, if you have anything at home, just give us something." Xiao lightly took ten gold coins and gave them to Aunt Chen.
Seeing the gold coins in her hand, Aunt Chen said excitedly: "Girl, you can't use so many gold coins, you can just give me a few silver coins, they are all worthless things." ”
Silver coin? In addition to gold coins, there are silver coins in this world?
"Miss, the consumption level of Qinguo, generally in the towns, uses more gold coins, then silver coins, and finally copper coins. One gold coin is equal to one thousand silver coins, and one silver coin is equal to one hundred copper coins" Cai'er never explained these things to Miss, she thought that Miss knew all about it, but I only remembered it today, Miss didn't go out much before, let alone spend money, and it was understandable that she didn't know.
"Give it to you, and you can keep it." Xiao lightly and rarely generous. "If you have anything to eat, you prepare some for us first, and we may stay here for a few days."
"Then thank you, ma'am." Seeing Xiao gently holding a child, Aunt Chen called Xiao Mrs. softly.
Listen to Mrs. Chen, this is called Mad Cow Village, no one knows the origin of this name, the people here have been farmers for generations, living by planting cotton, and some people raise silkworms, but only a few, most people still don't know this technology.
The land here is not able to grow proper food, and the cotton is not very well sold, so it is very poor.
Cotton? She just wanted to make ready-to-wear stores, and she had also observed those ready-to-wear stores, where the most of the materials for clothes were made of linen except silk, but not much of cotton, and they were very expensive.
