Chapter 450: I'm Hungry
Xu Chen heard the middle-aged man's words, turned around and looked at Xiao Ye cupped fist and said, "What do you think, my lord?"
Xiao Ye turned around and looked at Xu Qing: "What do you think, Brother Xu?"
Xu Qing thought for a while and said, "Then let's go."
Xiao Ye looked at Xu Chen and nodded, "Yes."
From this conversation, in the eyes of the middle-aged man, the relationship between several people has been clearly distinguished. Xu Chen obviously regarded the young man in front of him as his servant, while the two young men were discussing their status. It should be about the same, the woman obviously has a pair of peach blossom eyes, but she looks heroic, and she is obviously closer to the man beside her.
Once you figure out the relationship, you won't offend people when you meet in the future because you don't know your identity.
The middle-aged man looked at Xu Chen with cupped hands and said: "There are important matters at home, so I won't stay any longer, brother Xu Chen stay."
After all, the middle-aged man withdrew with a group of servants.
Xiao Ye returned to the seat, Xu Chen gently pulled Xiao Ye's chair, supported it, and returned to his own seat after Xiao Ye sat down.
Xu Qing looked at Xu Chen and asked, "How did you have such a friendship with the Huang family?"
Xu Chen softly reported: "Reporting to Mr. Xu, my subordinates helped the Huang family do a few tricks on Rivers and Lakes. This kind of thing is not uncommon on Rivers and Lakes. This kind of work is not uncommon. Shadow Killer is very familiar, with the cooperation of the two guards in Fengzhou City, the subordinates have gained the trust of the Huang family, and after being recommended by the Huang family to the Liu family and the Duan family, there is such a relationship."
Shadow Killer is another name for the second guard, who is responsible for assassination.
Shadow Killer is also a product of a very full-bodied ideal and a skinny reality.
Originally, he also wanted to take root in the Three Kingdoms, but in the end, because of money and distance issues, he had to return the main battlefield to Chu.
At first, Xu Qing thought that Xu Chen had some secret contacts with these three families, but as an outsider, it was definitely not that deep, but now Xu Qing found that she really underestimated Xu Chen.
The members of the Huang family have to be so polite to Xu Chen, as expected of someone who has been a spy for many years.
Three days later, the old man of the Huang family will celebrate his birthday. At that time, all the famous people in Fengzhou will come to celebrate his birthday, and the Liu family and the Duan family will be no exception.
Originally Xu Qing planned to find them one by one.
With this birthday banquet, it is simple.
Although the timing of the attack seemed a little unreasonable, but since they bumped into it, they were considered unlucky.
Of course, there are benefits to such a collision.
From now on, the anniversary of birth and death will be the same day. When future generations pay homage, they only need to remember a date, so save your trouble!
Misfortune and fortune depend on each other...
After eating, the sky was getting dark gradually. Due to the exhausted journey, several people returned to the room early to rest.
Seeing the figures of Xu Qing and others going upstairs and returning to the room, the shopkeeper of Youranju and his fellows couldn't hide their shock anymore. The Huang family has always been the only one who bullied others in Yi County, so how could anyone else beat the Huang family? The Young Master can still make the Huang family take the initiative to laugh?
That group of people really have such a big background?
Thinking of this, the shopkeeper of Youranju hurriedly greeted the clerk and asked, "Did all the guests' guest rooms be cleaned just now?"
A clerk stood up and said: "Don't worry about the shopkeeper, the small one has been scanned three times, and there is no hair at all, to ensure that the guests can live comfortably. This is the first time that the small one has lived in Yi County for more than ten years." Seeing the Huang family take the initiative to laugh with you, it's really a scorpion shit—the only one!"
...
At two o'clock in the evening.
Xu Qing lay on the bed and still couldn't sleep, wondering what happened to the lady and the little maid at home.
Did the little maid take good care of the lady, and did she accidentally sleep in the study when she got up at night?
When I was away, the little girl probably didn't ask my wife some weird questions at home, right?
Just when Xu Qing was thinking wildly, there was a knock on the door suddenly.
Xu Qing, who was not sleepy at first, immediately got up from the bed and opened the door. After opening the door, she saw Long Binger who was still dressed in black and had a high ponytail.
Xu Qing looked at Long Binger who was standing at the door and asked, "It's so late, why don't you go to bed?"
At the second quarter of Haishi, even though it is only 9:30 in conversion, in Xu Qing's world, the night life has not yet started at this time, but in this era when there is no night entertainment and only people can play at night, it is indeed already It was pretty late.
Long Binger looked at Xu Qing, pursed her red lips, and said, "I'm hungry, do you have anything to eat?"
This girl Long Bing'er ate nothing but sweets today, and she didn't even eat a few mouthfuls of food. At night, she finally couldn't stand the hunger.
But it was late at night and she was out again, so Xu Qing had nothing to give her to eat.
This is not her own home, Xu Qing can't even feed her below.
Moreover, it was getting late, and the cooks of Youranju had all returned home from get off work and went to the hot kang with their wives, where could they find a cook to cook a meal for Long Binger?
Xu Qing looked at Long Bing'er and said, "I didn't bring anything to eat, why don't you eat some candy?"
Long Binger quickly shook her head firmly: "No! I ate too much candy today, and I'm tired of eating it. I don't want to eat candy anymore."
Long Bing’er ate so much sugar today, it’s not greasy to be a ghost, at this time Xu Qing seemed to think of something, and said: “By the way, this is not the capital city, there is no curfew at night, why don’t we go out and see if there are any sold in the night market How is the food?"
The one-day curfew will only be lifted during some grand festivals and lantern festivals in the capital, and no pedestrians are allowed on the road at night at other times.
But Yi County is different. Yi County is just a small county town. As long as you don’t feel tired, you can go to the night market overnight and no one will take care of you.
Xu Qing wanted to take her out to buy food, Long Binger naturally readily agreed.
After Xu Qing went back to the room and took some money, she went downstairs with Long Binger.
Long Binger has a characteristic. When she is not hungry or only a little bit hungry, she can accept a little bit of sweet food, but when she is very hungry, eating salty food is the most comfortable and delicious.
Xu Qing and Long Bing'er walked side by side on the Yi County Night Market, there were really many vendors around, with everything from food, drinks to toys.
However, Yi County is not a big city after all, and the food it sells is relatively simple and not a rare thing, and because there are many mountains in Fengzhou, it has unique conditions for cultivating bandits.
Such a geographical environment is destined that this state will not be too prosperous in this era.
The local dishes in Fengzhou are mostly game, and there are only a handful of hard dishes that can be served on the table.
Fortunately, Yi County has at least one Huang's family, not to mention the mountainous areas in the rest of the counties, and the natural disaster last year will only make it worse.
If not, Cheng Wang would not have wanted to go to the capital in the name of praying for the country, just to ask the virtuous king to transfer him back to the capital.
Where in the backcountry of Fengzhou is the place where the emperor's relatives stay?
