At this time, a figure passed by at the end of the alley, and Daji called, "Xiao Xuan, is that you?"

But when the man came out, it was an old beggar, and Daji was a little lost: "Old man, where are they gone, do you know?"

"I don't know, I don't know. The old beggar shook his head, stared at the steamed bun in Jiang Yi's hand as he spoke, and swallowed his saliva.

Jiang Yi had good eyesight, took out two steamed buns and handed them to the old beggar.

He took it and gobbled it up before saying, "Xiao Xuan, they have been gone for many days. ”

Daji bent down and asked, "Have they left Yunhai County?"

The old beggar shook his head again: "I'm afraid not." ”

Jiang Yi saw that he wanted to speak and stopped, so he gave him two more steamed buns.

The old beggar stuffed the steamed bun into his arms and said, "Actually, not only Xiaoxuan them, but also a lot of children have been lost in the county recently." ”

"Lost a lot of children?" Daji asked uneasily, "doesn't the county care?"

"The city lord recently went to Chaoge to meet the emperor, and the young city lord is in charge. You also know the virtue of the young city lord, not only does he not care, but he also doesn't let him talk nonsense, if he does, he will disturb the people's hearts and will be beaten. Don't say it's what I said, I'm an old bone, eat a few of your steamed buns, it's not worth taking my life. ”

lost the child, and didn't let him say it, this Hong Jin is really hateful.

Jiang Yi asked Daji, "What now?"

Daji was very worried about Xiao Xuan and them, and said: "Go find Hong Jin, after all, the city lord is not here, and now the entire Yunhai County is in charge of him, he can't ignore it." ”

The castle lord's mansion is on the shore of the Silent Lake.

The surface of the lake is like a mirror, the light wind blows, and the water waves are not alarmed. Occasionally, a white bird was seen brushing across the water, catching a herring and making a ripple in the middle of the water.

At this time, the sun is shining, the water surface is brilliant, the shore is verdant and old, and the sky is long and white clouds, which are also reflected in the lake like a picture.

Peng Dashou was already waiting outside the City Lord's Mansion, and when he saw Jiang Yi and Daji, he arched his hand and said, "The Young City Lord has been waiting for a long time. ”

And the three of them went into the house together.

The wall door of this mansion stands high, the wall carves beams and paints the building, enter the mansion, only to know the size of the mansion, all the way meandering, through the corridor through the garden, walk for a long time, only to arrive at the guest hall.

Hong Jin had already set up the banquet and greeted Daji: "Sister, you are finally here, my brother has been waiting for a long time, and this dish is cold." ”

The rest of the guests also stood up and bowed to Daji.

Jiang Yi looked at the chickens, ducks, fish and meat on the table, thought of the people on the street in shabby clothes, beggars everywhere, and then looked at the people in this guest hall, all of them were dressed in fine clothes and food.

Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road.

It seems that Hong Jin and they don't have a lot of fish and meat on weekdays.

Daji bowed and said: "I have encountered some delays, Hong Gongzi forgive me." ”

She usually treats people with a spring breeze, but at this time, she thinks about Xiaoxuan and them, and she can't hide her displeasure, so she barely raises the corners of her mouth slightly.

Hong Jin saw that her face was unhappy, and asked, "Why is my sister sad, what happened, tell my brother, and my brother will do it for you." ”

"If I ask, Hong Gongzi can't be angry. Daji thought of the old beggar's words and said deliberately.

Hong Jin's curiosity was aroused, and he nodded: "It's okay for you to say, you can be a witness, I promise not to get angry with my sister." ”

Jiang Yi noticed that Peng Dashou's eyes on the side moved slightly, as if he had guessed what Daji was going to say.

"I heard that Yunhai County has lost a lot of children recently. ”

As soon as these words came out, the whole house was silent, and they all looked at Hong Jin.

Hong Jin waved his hand awkwardly: "Alas, I invited everyone to come here today to welcome Sister Daji, not to say these unhappy things." ”

"yes, why bother with all this. ”

"It's not your child, why bother with that idleness?"

"Drink, drink. ”

The banquet was full of prodigal children from Yunhai County, and they were not interested in this matter, and after a while, they were staggered, guessing boxing and frolicking.

"My sister came from afar, my Yunhai County is really vibrant, come, be my brother's toast to you. Hong Jin picked up the wine glass and stared at Daji with a bright face.

Daji glanced at Jiang Yi and sighed slightly, after all, in Hong Jin's land, it was not good to save his face, so he raised his wine glass and drank it.

At this moment, there was a "bang bang" drum sound from outside the house.

Hong Jin took the case: "Who the hell is coming to disturb Uncle Ben's Yaxing at this time, Dashou, you go out and have a look." ”

Saying that, Peng Dashou took the order to go out.

Hong Jin picked up the wine glass and said to Jiang Yi again: "This is the junior brother of Daji's sister, inherit the face of my sister, uncle, I will also toast you." ”

Toast yourself to a glass and take your own face?

It's a big joke.

Jiang Yi waved his hand: "I don't drink." ”

Hong Jin was a little embarrassed, but he took care of Daji and held back for the time being, just thinking about going back and cleaning up this guy who didn't know the height of the sky.

He put down his wine glass and said, "If you don't drink, forget it, eat vegetables, eat vegetables." The delicacies of my city lord's mansion are different from those in your Qingqiu's broken mountains, for example, that fish is a swallowtail eight-treasure fish from the South China Sea, you must not have eaten it as a mountain villager, it is rare to have such an opportunity, take a good taste. ”

Jiang Yi was quite unhappy when he saw Hong Jin's look of looking down on him, so he ignored him, took out a steamed bun from the cloth bag and nibbled on it.

All the sons and brothers were stunned for a while.

Hong Jin said unhappily: "I have delicacies from the mountains and seas here, why do you want to eat that broken steamed bun, I don't know, I think my city lord's mansion has treated you badly." ”

Jiang Yi smiled slightly: "Although my broken steamed bun is nothing delicious, it is clean." ”

The implication of his words is that these delicacies of the city lord's mansion are not coming from the right way.

A few sons and brothers are brainless straw bales, and they also picked up the vegetable plate and took a closer look: "This is not dirty." ”

"Bang" Hong Jin heard Jiang Yi's off-string sound, and slapped the case: "You mountain village man, don't be embarrassed." ”

Seeing this, Da Ji hurriedly protected Jiang Yi in front of him, and said coquettishly: "Young Master Hong, I respect you as the young city lord of Yunhai County, and I treat you with great courtesy." But if you speak disrespectfully to my junior brother again, I will ignore you again. ”

"Let's talk about it, who made the first remarks?" Hong Jin was a little aggrieved when he saw that Daji was like this.

Jiang Yi also admitted that he was the first to speak disrespectfully, but Daji is a brother protector, so naturally he will not feel that he is at fault.

Daji said willfully: "I don't care, anyway, I'm just such a junior brother, I have to protect him no matter what." Whoever doesn't know what's right or wrong is right and right. Whatever my junior brother is wrong, others must be at fault first. ”

"You...... What kind of reason do you have?" Hong Jin couldn't cry or laugh, but Da Ji became willful, pouting, and crossing his hands on his hips, but there was another style, and he suppressed his anger for a while.

At this time, Peng Dashou walked in and said, "Young City Lord, it is seven or eight women who are making a fuss there, saying that the children in the family have been lost, and they want the Young City Lord to uphold justice and arrest the thieves." ”

Hong Jin slammed the wine glass on the ground with a "snap": "My father is not here, Uncle Ben is the city lord of Yunhai County, and he is in charge of all earth-shattering things, and he is embarrassed to harass me by losing children and catching hairy thieves, so he will blast me out." ”

Jiang Yi smiled secretly in his heart: What are you doing, the first place in eating is talking about people like you.

"This ...... Those women spilled so badly that many people around them were watching, and they wanted to blast them away, for fear that it would damage the reputation of the young city lord. Peng Dashou persuaded tactfully.

"Ahh

At this time, a scream suddenly came from the backyard.
