Chapter 61: Midnight Terror

"Let's go, let's go!"

When Xu Ping and Xu An heard such a shocking secret, they were immediately frightened, afraid of being discovered by Wang Zhu and Liu Niang, Xu Ping hurriedly urged his sister to go back quickly.

The two crept back along the long road, but accidentally stepped on a loose tile and made a little noise.

Wang Zhu was alert, he heard the slightest movement, and immediately signaled Liu Niang not to make a sound, walked two steps towards the side room, and listened to the movement outside.

Outside, there was only the faint sound of selling on the street, the sound of the wind blowing the leaves, and the crying of the children in the backyard.

Liu Niang walked over quickly, "What do you see?" ”

Wang Zhu frowned, "You go to that kid's house and take a look to see if he's back." ”

Liu Niang was shocked, understood the meaning of his words, and said fearfully: "Didn't he listen to the two of us?" ”

That Wang Zhu suddenly shouted, "If I tell you to go, you can go, what are you doing with so much nonsense?" ”

Liu Niang was startled by him and hurriedly went.

When she went to the West Courtyard, there was no one in the bamboo forest, she walked in and called out tentatively, "Brother Xu, are you back?" ”

After screaming twice, the door opened, Xu Ping came out from inside with a yawn, rubbed his eyes and said, "Sister Liu, are you coming to my eldest brother?" He left in the morning and didn't come back, I don't know when he ......."

Xu An hurriedly walked out of the house, grabbed his brother, and squinted his eyes with a smile: "Sister Liu, I'm afraid my eldest brother won't come back until midnight." ”

Liu Niang nodded and said with a smile: "It's just that the sugar paste in the tea shop is sold out, and I want to ask your eldest brother for more." He's not at home, so let's wait for him to come back. ”

After that, Liu Niang went back.

Xu Ping saw her willow waist bend away, only to feel like she had seen some man-eating goblin, no matter how beautiful she was, she was also a woman with bad ideas!

Busy said to his sister: "What did you just hold me for?" Lie to her and say that she doesn't know when the eldest brother will come back, and when the eldest brother comes back, we will tell him to move out! ”

Xu An glared at him, dragged him back into the house, bolted the door, and then whispered, "Didn't you see that his man was fierce and vicious?" What else did Fang just say, to deceive the pear paste prescription from the eldest brother, what if he changed his mind and wanted to attack the two of us? ”

At this time, in the east wing, Liu Niang went back to report the news, Wang Zhu heard Liu Niang say that Xu Ling might have gone out to buy pears, and he didn't know when he would come back.

Wang Zhu was impatient, but Liu Niang's face was relaxed, which immediately made him angry, "Are you just looking forward to him not coming back, and the province will be deceived by you?" ”

Since he hit Xu Ling's head with the idea, he always thought that he could make a fortune, and when he was not at home a few days ago, he often went to the casino Qinglou and spent a lot of money.

Just waiting for the slaughter of Xu to make this fat sheep reincarnate, but he couldn't find a chance to start, and his woman ran away with others.

How can Wang Zhu not hate?

Liu Niang hurriedly shouted: "If you dare to move my finger again, don't blame me for turning my face!" ”

Wang Zhu gritted his teeth and endured it, turned around the room anxiously twice, and suddenly raised his head and looked at the roof of the side room.

After a while, he seemed to realize something, and suddenly said, "Do you think those two children will know the recipe for making sugar paste?" Xu Ling carried us on his back, but he didn't carry them, since it was an ancestral recipe, they should also know it! ”

Liu Niang was scared in her heart, "What are you going to do here?" Don't you want me to hook up with two children who haven't grown their hair! ”

Wang Zhu smiled and said, "I don't need you to make a move, I'll do it myself!" You're just going to trick them out! ”

Since Xu An said the conjecture that Wang Zhu would attack them, the two children were so frightened that they bolted the doors and windows, and blocked the doors and windows with everything they could use to resist in the house.

Waiting for night to fall, the bamboo leaves outside are swaying, and the autumn wind blows the bamboo leaves around, making a whining sound.

Xu Ping Xu An pinched Xu Ling's pear peeling knife and the stick of stirring sugar paste in his hands, and the two of them squeezed into a bed, sitting there wrapped in a quilt and shivering.

"Xu An, will he really come to us?"

"I don't know, but it's okay to be on guard."

The two children thought of that possibility, and they didn't know if the eldest brother would come back tonight, and it would be nice if he could come back!

Time passed little by little, and I don't know what time it was, but the night was already very deep.

Xu Ping Xu An was drowsy, and suddenly there was a knock on the door.

It's Liu Niang.

"Xu Ping, Xu An, have you two eaten? I've cooked some food at home, so let's have some together? ”

Xu Ping and Xu An glanced at each other and swallowed their saliva.

"Do you want her back?"

"Let's go back."

Xu Ping said boldly: "Sister Liu, we have already eaten and slept, so I won't go to your side, thank you Sister Liu for your kindness." ”

Liu Niang said, "Really?" And he departed.

But before the two children could take a breath, Liu Niang came again.

There seemed to be a cry in her voice, talking about the bustling market outside, and she wanted to take Xu An to buy clothes with her.

If the two children can't hear that something is wrong, there will be a problem, Xu An said: "Sister Liu, it's too late today, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

Liu Niang left again.

This time, no one came for a long time, but the two children were not sleepy at all, and I don't know how long later, there was a banging on the door.

It was Wang Zhu who came to the door by himself!

Wang Zhu's knock on the door was like a storm, and Xu Ping and Xu An had the courage to reply to him.

Then the king Zhu departed without believing evil.

He asked Liu Niang: "Did you tell them?" ”

Liu Niang's beautiful face was beaten by him, and she turned her face away with a miserable laugh: "If I tell them, won't you want to beat me to death?" ”

"Son of a bitch, these two little ghosts are much smarter than your little white face!"

Wang Zhu scolded hatefully, he was afraid that what he had done had already startled the snake, in case the two children said something to Xu Ling tomorrow, wouldn't the duck in the beak be flying?

The more Wang Zhu thought about it, the more unwilling he became, and the more impatient he became.

Xu Ren was in Qinghe Town, and for some reason he was a little uneasy in his heart.

That feeling was very mysterious, and it made him uneasy, and he didn't even have the heart to buy pears.

Fortunately, with the help of Mrs. Li, she searched for pears in the village in advance, bought them and stocked them at home.

Xu Ling went to her house to weigh her, settled the money for her, bought more than 800 catties of pears in one go, and learned a sad news.

This autumn is colder than last year, and the wind is strong, and many pears on people's trees have been blown off by the wind.

Eight hundred catties of pears, at most 50 cans of autumn pear paste, can be sold for more than 20 taels of silver. After deducting the material fee or something, it is estimated that there is still some distance from building a house after paying off the money......

Xu Ling couldn't help frowning.

He didn't waste time in Qinghe Town, arrived at Lijiazhuang in the evening, bought pears in the middle of the night, and walked around the night to go to the dock to take a boat.

For some reason, he desperately wanted to rush back.
