Chapter 3 The Red Flower Lady
"Hehehe", Yunluo laughed dryly a few times, and went downstairs with a sallow face. Yun Fei was wrapped in a cloth on his back and followed behind him with Bai Bai.
"Lady, we're new here, and we want to stay here for a few more days, can you make it easier?" asked Yunluo as he sat down at a table closest to the stairs, full of tiredness.
"Naturally, you can. The proprietress put down the abacus in her hand, twisted her waist and came, sat beside Yunluo, her eyes wandered between the three of them, and after a while, she fell on Yunfei.
Yunluo stared silently at her arm leaning on the tableβher skin was white and delicate.
"Mother, I'm hungry", shrunk beside Yunluo in vain, and looked at Yunluo with an aggrieved face, "We didn't eat much yesterday......
Yunluo had a burst of shame on his face.
She is used to being lazy, she eats when she thinks about it, even if she can't think of it, Yun Fei has always been indifferent to eating, she actually forgot that there is a child around her who wants to eat well, and she, a mother, is a little rougher.
"Although our shop is small, we still have all the things we should have, so let's have breakfast here first. Seeing this, the corners of the proprietress hooked up slightly, and she reached out and wanted to touch Baibai, but she was subconsciously avoided by Baibai, she was not annoyed, she withdrew her hand and knocked on the table, "Abi, take some good food." β
Someone in the inn cubicle answered cleanly.
It was only half a pillar of incense, and eight bowls of dishes were served.
"It's red crispy hooves, stir-fried cabbage, and jade fish...... Oh, little ancestor, you can't eat that, that's wine. β
Yunluo held the chopsticks for a moment, and looked at the proprietress with a little surprise, only to see that her face was so gentle that it seemed that she could pinch out the water.
Yunluo withdrew his chopsticks and bit them in his mouth, looking at Bai Bai, who was being served intimately by the proprietress.
Bai Bai's appearance has always been pleasing, Yunluo knows it, but it is really an exaggeration to attract people to such an extent, and the proprietress clearly regards Bai Bai as her own son.
Standing next to them was Xiao Er, who had just served them food, and he pinched the corners of his clothes on both sides with his hands a little uneasily, and lowered his eyes quietly.
"Abi, you don't have to work here, let's step back first", the proprietress waved her hand and motioned Abi to retreat, but a pair of eyes remained on Bai Bai.
Yun Fei didn't move his chopsticks, just looked at the little er.
Yunluo also followed Yun Fei's gaze, and realized that something was wrong within three seconds - Xiao Er is a teenager, and he is still a teenager with clear eyebrows!
In Xingzhou City, there are clearly no young normal men. Now this inn, not to mention the rules of daring to leave Yunluo and a group of outsiders to live, just the rules of lighting the lamp until dawn, the people who sneak into the wing room in the middle of the night, and the young man now, are full of suspicions.
Yunluo felt that he had no appetite, so he put down the chopsticks after eating a few bites, Yun Fei had never liked to eat, and he didn't even pick up the chopsticks.
The proprietress sandwiched the fish with clean thorns in her hand into the white bowl, raised her eyes to look at Yunluo, took a handkerchief and wiped her dirty hands when picking fish bones, and then asked unhurriedly, "Why do the two distinguished guests eat so little, is it not that the food is unappetizing?"
"No, no, the food is very good, but we have always eaten less, we can't eat too much", Yunluo waved his hand, and by the way, he fished over the white that had just swallowed the last piece of fish, "I see that this Xingzhou City is very lively, I came late yesterday, but I didn't appreciate it, I see that there is time to go out to play today, I don't know if the boss lady is willing to go together?"
"The slave family is gone, I have lived in this city since I was a child, and I have seen and played everything that should be seen and played, and there is really no novelty. The proprietress politely refused, "Let's go out and play, don't miss the time to come back." β
If the proprietress doesn't go, then only Yun Fei and Bai Bai will go out with her, which is exactly what Yunluo wants.
Yunluo didn't say a word, and led him out of the door in vain.
Yun Fei followed behind Yun Luo with his arms folded on his chest.
Unlike yesterday, although there were still many women on the street today, they all stared at Yun Fei when they saw him come out, but they didn't pounce like a wolf.
They are so calm, but Yunluo is a little unaccustomed.
"Stallholder, how do you sell rouge gouache?" Yunluo walked to a stall, pretending to be careless, picked up a rouge box, shook it a few times, and asked with a smile.
"Oh, girl, don't shake it, it'll shake the fat powder inside. The stall owner was in his fifties and sixties, and likewise an incomplete manβhe had lost an ear, and was hurrying over to stop the clouds from falling, and the soles of his feet were as "whooshing" as if the wind had been born.
"Oh. Yunluo reluctantly put down the box in her hand - this box is quite delicate, quite in line with her taste.
"Girl, what kind of fat powder do you want? I have ...... here", the stall owner stopped halfway through his words, turned around and continued to work behind the stall, as if he had never seen Yunluo and his party at all.
"What is here, stall owner?" asked Yun Luo insistently, but the stall owner seemed to be unable to see them, and only buried himself in his own business.
Yunluo continued to ask a few more words, but the stall owner still ignored him.
Yunluo was bored with himself, and planned to leave in vain.
"Hey, old man, business is good today. β
A carriage that was neither broken nor good leaned slowly on the side of the road, and a group of people got out of the carriage and walked towards the fat powder stall with a big grin.
All of them can be regarded as big men.
It's a pity that some of them are missing an arm, some are missing a leg, some are missing an ear, and even one is missing an arm and a pair of legs, and they are hanging on two people, with a fierce light on their faces.
Yunluo only felt very strange, pulled Yun Fei's sleeve, pointed to the person who was set up by two people, and said, "Ah Fei, you say, what are you doing here when this person has become like this?"
Ah Fei was silent.
But he raised his little head in vain, and the bangs in front of his forehead shook and trembled, "Mother, this is pomp, the more people there are, the more pomp and circumstance, the momentum is enough, when fighting with others, the momentum must not be lost! In the future, when you duel with people for nothing, you must also have a big pomp and atmosphere, so that you will not lose your face and your mother's face!"
"Who taught you this nonsense?"
"It's Uncle Yangyan. β
Yunluo slapped Yang Yan's disrespectful guy one hundred and eighty times in his heart, but he still tried his best to shake out a smile, "Don't listen to your Uncle Yang Yan's nonsense in the future, he is an empty ink inkstone, and he doesn't have much ink in his stomach, you know?"
Nodding obediently in vain, Yunluo touched his son's head with satisfaction.
This Yunluo is still admiring his well-behaved and sensible son, and the car has already been noisy.
"Okay uncle, the villain really didn't make much money today, and there is a young granddaughter and a blind wife to take care of at home, the granddaughter has recently been seriously ill, and all the money was spent on treatment, and now I really can't get the money. The stall owner knelt down straight without saying a word, and Yunluo pondered how the stall owner's demeanor now looked like he was going to be heroic and righteous.
Before he started scolding or robbing, the stall owner knelt down and begged for mercy first, and the people around him still pretended not to see it, it seems that this group of people are habitual offenders.
Yunluo came out of Juling Yutian and traveled all the way north, this kind of thing is really too much.
Adhering to the virtue of helping others, Yunluo also cares about these things.
Seeing this tragic situation, Yunluo was about to roll up his sleeves and step forward to theorize, but he was stopped behind him before he could take two steps.
"I'll come. β
The black-clothed young man stood in front of Yunluo with a silent face.
Yun Fei didn't know why Yunluo did this, but along the way, he also knew that Yunluo would be happy to do this, so after watching it once or twice, he understood that as long as he encountered this kind of thing again, Yun Fei would always stand in front of Yunluo and get things done.
"Ah Fei, you are really getting smarter and smarter, you don't need me to say that you know what to do", Yunluo was very pleased, "It seems that in some time, you will be able to go out alone." β
Yun Fei's body was stiff, and he kept his head down for a long time without moving.
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and hand over the money!" a big man led by a big man kicked over the stall, with both hands and feet, but with an eye patch on his face, he seemed to be the most sound of the group.
"Please forgive the uncle for a few days", the stall owner knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "In a few days, the villain will definitely give all the money that should be paid, but the granddaughter's illness cannot be delayed, and the villain ......"
The big man obviously wouldn't agree, and according to Yunluo's guess, he should say in the next sentence: "I don't care what your granddaughter does, my lord wants money today, and if you don't have money, you want your life." β
"I don't care what your granddaughter is, I want money today, and I want your life if I don't have money!" said the one-eyed man viciously.
Yunluo shook his head.
It's really disappointing, back and forth, can't you change the sentence?
"Ah Fei, since you volunteered, I'll leave it to you", Yunluo patted Yunfei on the back and instructed, "Although I know that it is impossible for them to hurt you, but be careful, don't stain your clothes." β
Yun Fei didn't speak, Yun Luo was used to his appearance of not talking much, so naturally he didn't take it to heart.
It's just that he didn't expect Yun Fei to turn around and silently walk behind Yun Luo.
This is......
"Mother, Uncle Yun Fei seems to be a little sad. He tugged at the corners of Yunluo's clothes in vain, and looked at Yunluo innocently with a pair of big eyes, "Mother, you bully your uncle." β
God is pitiful, what did she do?
"Fall. β
Yun Fei stood firmly behind Yun Luo, the young man's posture was tall, he was already a head taller than Yun Luo, his eyes were lowered, and his inky eyes were pitch black.
"What's wrong?"
"I'm not leaving. β
The young man's current appearance revealed his stupid and innocent side, and he raised his eyes to look at the clouds and fall.
Yunluo smiled dumbly, it turned out that this was what he cared about.
"Okay, you said you, I don't care much about what I teach you on weekdays, but you listen to a joke in your heart. "Yunluo is helpless.
"Ask for ...... Ouch, stop fighting, please spare the villain. There was an exclamation, and the crowd dispersed, and the people on the street fled the place in small steps.
"Ah Fei!", seeing that the elderly stall owner was knocked to the ground, the big men surrounded him, and Yunluo was a little panicked - I don't know if the stall owner can withstand such a violent beating.
Yun Fei moved extremely fast, and before Yun Luo's words fell, he had already flashed in, standing on the stall owner who had fallen to the ground, looking at the group of big men coldly.
"Yo, where did this handsome boy come from?" The one-eyed man looked at Yun Fei who suddenly appeared in the encirclement carefully, his eyes were obscene.
"Such a good appearance, tsk, how long will it ......take for the master" The one-eyed man stopped halfway through speaking, his eyes were a little dull, his body stiffened and walked outside, swallowed the words back alive, and waved his big hand, "Let's withdraw!"
Huh?
Yun Fei is so powerful now, and those individuals were scared away without making a move? Yun Luo stood outside and watched in amazement as the group of big men got into the carriage and went away, during which the big man with missing arms and legs was still whimpering for a long time, and he gestured towards Yun Fei for a long time, glanced at Yun Fei with a sad expression, and was finally put on the carriage.
"Is it okay to be a stall owner?" Yunluo asked carefully as he picked up the stall owner.
The stall owner timidly replied, "The villain is fine, thank you two for saving each other." β
"You're welcome, it's okay, then we'll go first. β
Yunluo didn't continue to pester the stall owner to ask questions this time, and planned to leave after finishing the matter.
The stall owner hesitated for a long time, and finally stopped Yunluo: "Madam." β
"Huh?"
"Look at your father-in-law's clothes. β
Another misunderstanding, Yunluo didn't bother to explain, so he went with him.
"His clothes ......" Yun Luo paid attention to Yun Fei, only to see a bright red flower embroidered on Yun Fei's waist. The position just happened to be blocked by Yun Fei's hands hanging on both sides, and he really couldn't find it if he didn't look carefully.
"What is this?" Yun Luo grabbed the piece of clothing and looked left and right, Yun Fei was always dressed in black, which was very abrupt, "I don't remember that I embroidered flowers for you." β
"This is a red flower, a sign that 'she' is coming", the stall owner looked at Yunluo with a little sympathy, "You are a father-in-law, you are taken by 'her', and you will definitely come within three days." β
"Who is 'she'?" Yunluo asked.
"This, the villain doesn't know, only that the people in the city call her 'Red Flower Lady', and those who have this flower on her body will die within three days. β
