Chapter 458: Steamed buns
Chapter 458 steamed buns
jī screamed, it was dawn, and Ouyang Narcissus ushered in a new day. róu róu still with deep sleepy eyes, Ouyang Narcissus climbed up 'chuáng'.
There's no chuáng, it's just a little hay on the ground. Living in the city, that's not good, you can't even find some straw, otherwise you can be warmer.
Last night, I woke up two more times. Fortunately, I slept again in a daze. Faintly seems to be in a dream, there is a very warm embrace to hold himself, the instinctive feeling is Brother Hu Wei, only to know when he opens his eyes that it is Xiǎo partner Shuang'er who is asking for food together.
Glancing at the sky that had already turned white, Ouyang Shuixian secretly calculated in his heart that it was one day closer to the day when he saw Brother Hu Wei.
Although she has never been contacted, Ouyang Shuixian is very confident that Hu Wei will definitely come to Greentown to find her. And Hu Wei will definitely find her.
"Rou'er, what are you thinking?" Shuang'er shook her hand in front of Ouyang Shuixian's eyes a few times, early in the morning, she didn't know what she was doing, and she didn't react when she talked to her.
"Hmm, are you talking to me?" Ouyang Narcissus came back to his senses. She had just wondered if she would go to the vicinity of the various cities and leave some secret notes. Although Brother Hu Wei is very smart, he may not be able to guess that Rou'er will become a beggar now
Shuang'er rolled her eyes and said, "Then I don't talk to you, am I sad that I'm talking to those guys?" Shuang'er said as she pointed to the clearing not far away. There were still seven or eight beggars asleep there. On a cold day, they didn't even lay a root of grass on the ground, and they could sleep tǐng fragrant.
Those were veteran beggars, who worked the afternoon shift, and would not get up until at least noon.
Beggars also have to be divided into classes?
Of course, everyone needs to invigorate the market economy. Regardless of the shifts, all the beggars rush out in a swarm, and it would be nice not to scare people away, and you still want to be able to eat? And you can't be on the street to eat twenty-four times, right, when you are not on the street, what if someone wants to give it?
With the jīng god who cannot miss a grain and a copper plate, the beggar industry must of course also move towards the road of collectivization and division of labor and cooperation. The principle of three shifts is adopted, and the morning shift, afternoon shift and night shift are organically rotated.
Ouyang Shuixian nodded in agreement and said, "That's right, they won't wake up when they fall asleep and thunder, and it's useless for you to talk to them." So what did you just tell me?"
Shuang'er said with a defeated expression: "Sometimes I really doubt that you are asking for food, and there is no professional jīng god at all." I just said that today the old man of the Lin family in the east of the city is married to NV, and I heard that he will give away steamed buns. Big white noodles steamed buns, I haven't eaten them for a long time, think about it, it's really jī moving"
Ouyang Shuixian frowned and said, "You don't want me to go with you, do you?" Master Lin of Chengdong Family, this sounds like a big family. For fear of being violated, Ouyang Narcissus always avoided going to those big families to ask for food as much as possible.
Shuang'er looked at Ouyang Shuixian like a monster for a while, and then said with a look of disbelief: "You're not, of course I asked you to go together." White-flour steamed buns, don't you want them? Whoever can give me two more steamed buns, you can exchange whatever you want, but unfortunately I don't have anything. Rou'er, come with me."
Ouyang Narcissus said: If you have to risk being discovered, I don't want to be angry with this steamed bun.
But she could only say this in her heart, and she would never dare to say it to Shuang'er. First, she is now a beggar and not a princess, and she doesn't have to go if she has steamed buns, which is too unreasonable. Second, in the past two months, Shuang'er has taken great care of her. To be a beggar, you also have to be qualified, and if Shuang'er hadn't brought her into the Huā Gang, she wouldn't even be able to ask for food. Shuang'er is so keen on steamed buns, almost as life, how can she hit Shuang'er.
Besides, the gang still has to pay tribute, and half of the food to be received has to be divided, and there are very few things she can get every day.
I thought about it for a while, it's one thing to go or not, and it's another thing to get there or not. If she goes, they can't blame her much, at most they will just scold her.
With a plan in mind, Ouyang Shuixian nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go with you." ”
"Ha, great, then let's go quickly, it's too late" Shuang'er happily pulled Ouyang Narcissus and was about to run out, Ouyang Narcissus broke away from her hand and said, "Wait a minute, I haven't washed yet." ”,
Shuang'er rolled her eyes at Ouyang Narcissus again, sometimes she really couldn't figure out whether Ouyang Narcissus was a beggar or Sister Xiǎo, why there were always so many troublesome things.
Ouyang Shuixian ignored Shuang'er's eyes, she allowed her clothes to be tattered and filthy, because this was to hide her identity, there was no way. But she doesn't allow her heart to be dirty, and on the premise that she won't be violent, she wants to make herself as clean as possible.
The posterior mén of the Lin Mansion was already overcrowded at this time, and the water could not be drained. Shuang'er complained while pulling Ouyang Narcissus in.
"There are so many people who have already come, I should have come earlier. These abominable fellows, don't they sleep at night, come so early......"
Compared to Shuang'er, Ouyang Narcissus was much quieter. Her eyes, the embankment's attention to the movement in all directions, and the two-month escape experience had taught her so many things, and she knew that under any circumstances, she should not be careless.
Hu Wei had been in Greentown for three days, but he hadn't been able to find any news about Ouyang Narcissus. Greentown is the capital of the Ningnan Empire, and the population of Canada is more than one million, and finding someone here is undoubtedly similar to looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Where will Rou'er be?"
Hu Wei sat down at a tea stall on the side of the road, asked for a pot of tea, and analyzed the possible hiding place of Ouyang Narcissus while drinking. As soon as he entered Greentown, he had a hunch that Ouyang Narcissus must be here, and now all he had to do was find her.
"Damn, who is graffiti here. What is this painting, the clothed narcissus huā?"
"Huh?" the words that inadvertently drifted to his ears caught Hu Wei's attention. He immediately searched for the sound and saw that the tea boss was holding a cloth and wiping something there.
"Wait a minute" Hu Yousan walked over in two steps, stopping the tea boss's movements, and his eyes stayed on the graffiti.
The graffiti has been erased a lot by the tea boss, but it can still be vaguely seen that it is painted with a narcissus huā. This narcissus huā is very strange, it has already withered a little, and huā is still wearing something similar to clothes on his body. Let's just count it as clothes, but there are a lot of xiǎo square dòng on it, and I don't know what it represents.
"Hey, young man, what are you doing?" the tea boss was quite unhappy with Hu Wei interrupting his work. He is a man who likes to be clean, and the last thing he sees is that people write and paint outside his shop.
"Hehe, it's nothing, I just think this graffiti tǐng is interesting. Boss, do you know who drew this?" said Hu Wei as he stuffed a few copper plates into the tea boss. Money is not everything, but sometimes it can solve a lot of problems.
Doing a tea shop is a business, and a few copper plates are already a very good extra income for the tea owner. As soon as the money came in, the face immediately showed the businessman's true sè, his mouth was grinning like something, and he smiled: "Childe is really discerning, and I also think the painting is good." It's a pity that I don't know who painted it, so I think it must be some xiǎo children. ”
Hu Wei didn't give up, and asked: "Then when was this drawn, and has there been a similar graffiti before?" ”
The tea boss thought for a while and said: "Well, there are often xiǎo children who write and draw here, but this is the first time I have seen a painting of a clothed narcissus." ”
Hearing that the tea boss had mentioned that Huā was wearing clothes twice, Hu Wei frowned and said, "Do you think this is clothes, so what do these square-shaped broken dòng represent?"
The tea boss scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "I think it should be clothes, as for these dòng, I don't know." Maybe it's nothing, xiǎo child's stuff, that's not accurate. ”
It makes sense to think about it, maybe it was added by which xiǎo kid casually.
At this time, the tea shop had another guest.
"Tea boss, come to a pot of tea, and then a bun, hurry up, the beggar is hungry"
"Ah, okay, right away. The tea boss responded, and said to Hu Wei embarrassedly: "Childe, I still have business over there, you see ......" After all, he took Hu Wei's money, and he couldn't just run away.
Hu Wei waved his hand and said, "You go and get busy." ”
"Okay, then you take your time, look slowly, if you need anything, just call me. ”
The tea boss ran to greet the guests, and Hu Wei looked at the graffiti for a while, but didn't see anything more. Although this is a daffodil huā, narcissus is a very common huā, and it cannot be said that it represents Ouyang daffodil. Besides, this graffiti is simple and very strange, maybe this is which xiǎo child drew it. ,
This time, Hu Wei's judgment was wrong, he felt that this was not painted by Ouyang Narcissus, in fact, this was the code that Ouyang Narcissus left for him. But it's not to blame Hu Wei for not being able to see it, it's the tea boss who likes it too much and is really like a graffiti.
In fact, the graffiti that Hu Wei saw was not complete, Ouyang Shuixian was still next to the graffiti, leaving a lot of secret notes. Those were all secret notes that Ouyang Narcissus learned from Zhu Daneng, if Hu Wei saw it, he would definitely know that it was left by Ouyang Narcissus. It's a pity that the part of the secret memory has been erased by the tea boss.
Slightly disappointed, he walked out of the tea shop, Hu Wei just wanted to leave, and the tea boss called out in a habitual way: "Son, I've eaten well, come again." ”
"Good. Hu Wei politely turned his head, his eyes widened.
When the tea boss called Hu Wei, he happened to serve tea to the new guest's table, and when Hu Wei turned his head, he happened to see the new customer.
"I see, those xiǎo squares are patches, no, xiǎo pockets that represent the status level called huāgang. Narcissus huā is draped in clothes with xiǎo pockets, which means that he is called huāzi beggar"
"Is this left by Rou'er, isn't it, is she now disguised as a beggar?"
Thoughts are like weeds, growing wildly in Hu Wei's mind. The whole brain, turning at full speed.
Hu Wei thought, if this was left by Ouyang Narcissus, then she would definitely not only leave one, but somewhere else, there must be those that have not been erased, as long as you find them, you can know if it is Ouyang Narcissus
But the green city is so big, how can we find other paintings as much as possible?
"That's right, xiǎohuāxiǎo grass" Hu Wei immediately thought of the pair of xiǎo couples he met on the boat. They are supposed to be some of the people in the huā gang, and no one in the town is better informed than the huāzi
The old man in front of him with seven xiǎo pockets on his clothes was not the one called the Huā Gang. There are seven xiǎo pockets, and there is money to go to a teahouse to drink tea, and it seems that the status is not bottom
These things crossed Hu Wei's head in an instant, and at the same time as he made his decision, he had already walked towards the seven bags called huā who were drinking tea.
"This beggar, do you know this yùpei?" Hu Wei strode in front of the beggar and took out the yùpei given by xiǎohuā.
"Young Gang Master" The beggar snorted, raised his eyes to look at Hu Wei, and said vigilantly: "Who are you, how can this yùpei be in your hands"
Hu Wei saw that there was mén and explained: "This was sent by a friend of mine, her name is xiǎohuā, I don't know if the beggar is denying it?"
The old beggar asked, "Do you know huā girl?"
Hu Wei nodded: "I have some jiāo feelings with xiǎohuāxiǎo grass, they sue me, as long as you take out this piece of yùpei, you can find them." This beggar, can you please show me the way, I have something to do with them. ”
The old beggar shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't help you, they are not in Greentown at this time"
"Why, I just came to Greentown with them three days ago. Hu Wei tried not to let the other party see his dissatisfaction, in his opinion, this old beggar was deliberately prevaricating.
The old beggar smiled and said, "Who stipulated that they came back three days ago, they must be in Greentown now." But you don't have to be afraid, since you took out this yùpei, the old man Huā won't sit idly by. Tell me what you are looking for them, and if I can help you, I will help you. If you can't help, I'll figure out a way for you to see if you want to contact them, or what."
When Hu Wei heard this, he secretly screamed ashamed in his heart, it seemed that he had misunderstood others. Hurriedly said: "Then thank you so much, beggar." Actually, it's not a big deal, I just saw a graffiti, and I feel that tǐng is interesting, but unfortunately it's incomplete, so I want your brother's brother to help, and look for where there is that graffiti. ”
"That's right. The old beggar glanced at Hu Wei strangely and said, "This is a xiǎo matter, you take me to see what the graffiti looks like first." ”
"Rou'er, look at how big this steamed bun is, I told you not to go to the toilet a long time ago, but you just didn't listen. Alas, it's a pity, otherwise you can also get one" Shuang'er xiǎo held the white-flour steamed bun she had just distributed, although in the process, the steamed bun had been flattened a lot, but she still protected it as a treasure.
Ouyang Shuixian said 'I'm sorry' to the other and smiled: "I don't want to either, but this stomach is really not powerful, and if you don't go, you have to pull it out." It's all gone, there's no way out, let's go",
Shuang'er reluctantly glanced at the dustpan that had been empty, and said, "If only there was another dustpan." ”
"It's impossible, let's go" Ouyang Narcissus pulled Shuang'er and walked out. If there is another dustpan, she has to find an excuse to dodge, then she will really be blamed to death by Shuang'er.
Just as Ouyang Shuixian and Shuang'er were about to leave, a voice came from behind them: "Two Xiǎo girls, please wait a minute." ”
The two turned their heads suspiciously, and saw a fat man in his fifties, like a steward, walking briskly.
Ouyang Shuixian glanced at the man and lowered his head. The reason why she ran away just now was because the person who distributed the steamed buns was the housekeeper of this Lin Mansion. She wasn't sure if the butler had seen her before, but she couldn't take that risk. It's the same thing with the steward who came over.
Shuang'er was not afraid at all, she saw that the fat man stopped them, and couldn't help but ask strangely: "This lord, is there anything wrong with you?"
The fat man had a pair of mouse eyes, looked at Shuang'er with a different sè, and then looked at Ouyang Shuixian, and said with a smile: "Oh, that's the case, I see that this *** didn't get a steamed bun, tǐng pitiful." I still have two ròu buns, I want to give them to you, I don't know if you want them."
"ròu buns" suddenly lit up with a pair of eyes. A steamed bun is enough to make her desperate, and with ròu buns, she can't even want her life.
"Yes, of course," Shuang'er replied without thinking. She doesn't have any thoughts anymore, and all her thoughts are already on the ròu bun.
Ouyang Shuixian's whole body trembled when he heard the 'ròu bun', this was not happy, but instinctively felt that something was wrong. She looked up and peeked at the fat man again, this person has nothing to do with them, why would there be ròu buns that don't eat them, and chase them over.
Ouyang Shuixian remembered that Hu Wei once said: Nothing to be courteous and diligent, if you are not a thief, you can't help but keep this heart.
The fat man saw that Shuang'er felt so much about the ròu buns, and the corners of his mouth pulled up a hint of yīn smile, and said, "I came out in a hurry, and the buns didn't take out." If you want, come with me to the kitchen and get it."
"Okay" Shuang'er was about to leave, Ouyang Shuixian grabbed her and said, "Shuang'er, we already have steamed buns, so we don't want any buns, let's go back"
Shuang'er's eyes widened suddenly, and she said exaggeratedly: "Rou'er, you're crazy, ròu buns, do you know how long I've not eaten ròu buns?"
Shuang'er said and asked the fat man, "Uncle, is there really a ròu bun, and there are still two?"
"Of course, what am I lying to you about. The fat man said, "Maybe it's more than two, but we have to hurry, or we will be taken away." ”
Shuang'er nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, we have to be fast, we have fast hands, and we don't have slow hands." ”
