Su Qingluan approached and looked at his father's line of sight, but he didn't see any suspicious people.
Could it be that the people who stole money yesterday are here again?
No, I heard that Dong Mao, the main culprit behind the scenes, is still being locked up in the county jail and waiting for sentencing.
"Daddy, Auntie, what are you looking at?" Su Qingluan said curiously.
Yang shook his head: "It doesn't matter, it's just that I just told your Aunt Yang that the old man didn't come today." ”
"Are you tired of coming here every day to eat this burrito?" Skinny Monkey quipped.
Immediately, he looked skewed, noticed Su Qingluan's men's dress, and joked: "Yo, where did this handsome little brother come from?" Mo is not the brother of the sister of the Su family? ”
Su Qingluan saw that he was making fun of himself, so he simply looked solemn, and clasped his fists in his collar and said, "Boy Su Xuanhe, please ask the name of this brother?" ”
Originally, the thin monkey was very sure that Su Qingluan was traveling in disguise as a woman, and since everyone was already familiar with each other, they could naturally joke about it.
However, seeing that the other party had given his name so seriously, he didn't dare to be sure. Could it be that the sister of the Su family still has a twin brother?
Thinking so, he hurriedly bowed and saluted, and stumbled a little nervously: "I...... My surname is Hou, and I am in the third line of the family, because I am too thin and nicknamed Skinny Monkey...... Little brother, you can call me a skinny monkey......"
The thin monkey lowered his head and muttered to himself, but he heard the sound of "snort" laughter in his ears.
When he looked up, Su Qingluan was already covering his stomach and mouth, and he smiled like a shrimp. And the Yang family and Su Guangfu looked at their daughter who played treasure helplessly.
"Little Brother Hou is really sorry," Yang looked apologetic, "My daughter is a little naughty sometimes...... Apologize to the little brother! Of course, the latter half of the sentence was directed at Su Qingluan.
Su Qingluan smiled and said, "I'm sorry", and couldn't help adding, "Who asked Brother Skinny Monkey to make fun of my men's clothes first?" ”
Aunt Yang also laughed out of tears on the side: "Don't say it, Fang Cai's pretentious appearance is very bluffing, if it weren't for the little lady of the Su family who has ear holes, she really looks like eleven or twelve-year-old Xiao Langjun!" ”
Su Qingluan touched her earlobe when she heard this-in order to match men's clothing today, she did not wear earrings, but she did not pay attention to the problem of ear holes.
Anyway, she didn't really want to hide the identity of the woman, so Su Qingluan didn't take this matter to heart.
She didn't know at this time that one day in the future, when she really dressed as a man, she almost planted a big heel on this small detail.
Although the thin monkey said that the old man Xu Kekuan was probably tired of eating the Su family's burritos, Su Qingluan thought that the last time he saw the old man, he was still analyzing the ingredients of the burritos with great interest—and there was a tendency to become more and more accurate.
Looking at that energy, it doesn't look like "tired".
Everyone is doing business on the same street, and they are the "old customers" who come every day, plus the old man Xu is a little stubborn except for a little time, his personality is very peaceful, and he occasionally helps to look at the stall, and he gets along well with the three members of the Su family.
Therefore, the Yang family and Su Guangfu were also a little worried, so Su Qingluan simply took advantage of the time when he was not too busy before closing the stall, and slipped away to get Moxuan to ask what was going on.
In the Mo Xuan, the old man Xu Kekuan was not there, but there was only one guy who was fiddling with the abacus.
Seeing Su Qingluan, the guy was stunned for a moment, and looked up and down to recognize who she was.
"It turned out to be Mrs. Su." He put down his abacus, "But do you want to buy pen, ink, paper, and inkstone?" ”
Su Qingluan shook his head: "May I ask you shopkeeper Xu Old Man?" I don't seem to have seen him for two or three days, so I miss him. ”
Hearing Su Qingluan's question, the business smile that the guy had originally hung on his face faded, and then sighed.
Seeing this, Su Qingluan's heart tightened: It can't be that Old Man Xu is ill, right?
Thinking of the kind smiling face that always tells you interesting things in the market and the cute appearance of a stubborn old man who talks about food, Su Qingluan subconsciously didn't want to hear any bad news about such a lovely old man.
"My shopkeeper is indeed sick in bed." Seeing that Su Qingluan was a little stunned, he hurriedly added: "It's not a threat to life, it's said that it's just that my limbs are weak and I don't want to eat." ”
Su Qingluan raised her eyebrows: It does not sound too serious, it is more like indigestion and decreased physical ability that are common in middle-aged and elderly people.
While reassuring a little, Su Qingluan asked where Old Man Xu lived—it was far away, just in the town.
Su Qingluan turned back and told his father and mother about Old Man Xu's illness: "I'll go see the old man!" ”
"Say hello to us on our behalf!" Aunt Yang and Skinny Monkey are next to the Su family's stall, and they have also become familiar with Old Man Xu these days. I heard that the other party was sick in bed, and I was also a little worried.
Su Qingluan responded one by one, turned around and bought apricots and peaches at the market, and went to the Xu family's house.
Although the Xu family looks inferior to the rich family's luxurious family, they also have green tiles and white walls, and the houses are like houses. Compared with the thatched loess houses of my own house and my neighbors, it is much better.
Knocking lightly on the door, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old gray cloth short brown janitor came out, looked the old Qingluan up and down, saluted and asked, "Who is Xiao Langjun?" Why knock? ”
Su Qingluan was stunned for a moment, and then understood that he was now a man, so he put the fruit in his hand aside and saluted back: "I heard that Mr. Xu Kekuan is ill and came to visit." ”
The servant guarding the door smiled a little when he heard this: "May I ask Lang Jun's name?" ”
"Let's just say that I called Su Qingluan."
"Please Lang Jun go to the front hall with the little one for tea, and the little one will go to report to the master."
So Su Qingluan's fruit was taken, and the man followed the doorkeeper into the courtyard.
This courtyard can actually be regarded as "cramped" for the wealthy families of this era - after all, there are only three-entry courtyards, and Su Qingluan has seen four-entry and five-entry mansions in novels and TV series more than once.
But for her, who lived in a "two-bedroom and one-living room small apartment" before the crossing and a "farmhouse adobe house" after the crossing, this house with a clean sweep and stone paving is already a "mansion".
Su Qingluanxin said that when he got the profit share of the whole month in a month, even if he couldn't buy a house in the town immediately, he would renovate his old house that was a little dilapidated, and he would try to live in such a house as soon as possible.
Thinking so, Su Qingluan was let into the front hall.
Sitting on the carved mahogany chair and drinking tea, Su Qingluan picked up a piece of delicately shaped and almost tasted it - Tian Tian.
Frowning slightly in disgust, Su Qingluan said that he would not eat it if he knew it was so unpalatable.
However—she looked down with some embarrassment, and saw that half of the refreshments were missing—how could this kind of food that she had touched be not good to put back, and how could she destroy the corpse?
At this time, Su Qingluan heard a smiling voice in his ear and asked, "Is this refreshment not to Su Xiaoyou's taste?" ”
“!!” Su Qingluan, who was about to do "bad things", almost didn't jump.
