Chapter 55

"Take a look and take a look. Our new iced fruit wine is paired with refreshing side dishes. It's really a must-have for cooling off in summer. Please come inside, sir."

"Hey, isn't this Brother Shi, why did you come to the Huanxi Inn to shout?"

"Shopkeeper Wang, it's not thanks to Shopkeeper Hong for not giving up his patronage for food. Would you like to come in and try some new dishes, Shopkeeper Wang?"

"Come on, let's go."

"Okay, a distinguished guest, shopkeeper Wang, please come inside!"

In the lobby of the inn, as soon as Lu Tang settled the bill with a guest officer, he delivered the peanuts on the counter to the table where he had just ordered.When he came back and passed the gate, he saw Liang Shi Huan busy outside the gate, "Is that right? It's great to be an upright person and live a decent life."

Liang Shi smiled at her and nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, I figured it out."

"Brother Shi, come here and bring up the dishes from the eight tables of Mr. Bai." Wang Qi was busy serving the dishes and serving tea with a breeze under his feet, and took the time to shout to the door again.

"Okay here we come!"

After finally being so busy at night, everyone sitting around was so tired that they didn't even want to talk.

"It's time to eat. Everyone has worked hard recently. Sanniang specially added meat dishes." Yu Lingchu brought a plate of braised pork knuckles. After seeing this, several people became more energetic. Of course, the most energetic among them is Lu Tang Yi.

"It's been a long time since I ate sister Yu's elbow."

"Didn't you just eat it two days ago?" Wang Qi picked up a piece of elbow skin and still teased Lu Tangyi, "Tangyi, do you remember to eat or not?"

"Screw you."

Seeing that Liang Shi only ate the greens in front of him, Hong Xi'er put a piece of meat into his bowl: "I met Li Dani in the town the day before yesterday, and asked her a few words, Miss Sun is all right."

Thinking about it, the letter of guarantee Master Ruan asked Li Zhu to sign that day played a role. At least for the past half month, Li Zhu has been honest.

Liang Shi paused when he heard the action of grilling the rice, and then ate the meat in the bowl: "Thank you shopkeeper."

After that, the shopkeeper couldn’t do it anymore, and the second part of the family’s land was rented out. Liang Shi couldn’t find a living to eat and wanted to leave Anzhou City, but he was worried about Pingniang. Fortunately, Hong Sanniang helped him to do it when he was desperate. The guy in the shop, this is what keeps him from running out of water.

"That Li Dani, what did she tell you?" Lu Tang held the bowl and slid his arms towards Hong Xi'er.

"What? Are you interested in her too?"

"Puchi!" Yu Hanshi almost spit out a mouthful of soup, covered his mouth with a muffled smile and said, "Li, Li Dani alone can beat Brother Tang twice, crushing Mount Tai."

Before Lu Tangyi could speak, Hong Xier turned back first: "So, I think you are the one who is suitable, Lingchu, Han Shi is getting older, why don't you say kiss him."

"Don't, don't, I don't want to marry a daughter-in-law and affect my being a famous chef. You should keep this kind of blessing for yourself. Brother Qi, Er and Tang are older than me, so you have to come first when you marry a daughter-in-law."

As soon as he said this, the faces of the "brothers" on the table changed slightly. Lu Tangyi glanced at him dissatisfiedly, and then looked at Hong Xier: What kind of embarrassment is this talking about.Wang Qi's mind became more active, and he unconsciously looked at Yu Lingchu opposite, thinking: I really want to marry, how about you be my brother-in-law?

Yu Han's eyesight came back intermittently again, and he looked at the two people on the table: "Oh, it's good to have a sweetheart in front of you."

Lu Tangyi: "Yo? Han Shi has a sweetheart, who is it? It's so far away in the sky?"

Yu Hanshi was suffocated, he opened his mouth and finally swallowed the meat with a big chopstick.

"Okay, stop teasing him." Hong Xi'er tapped Lu Tangyi's head with the root of her chopsticks, thinking of what Li Dani said to her: Although men don't have a good thing, but your little white face looks pretty bad. Pick it out and use it, don't let people deceive you this time.

Alas, it's rare to hear good words from Li Dani's mouth, but this little thing in her family is not a man, and now it seems that he is not a bad boy.

Lang Yuanyi, who had been silent at the dinner table, suddenly said, "Han Shi, how old are you?"

"I'm sixteen, pretending to be seventeen."

Lang Yuanyi nodded, and glanced at Lu Tangyi. The latter understood what she was thinking and quickly changed the subject with a cough: "Shopkeeper, I think our new dishes are not as fresh as before."

"Really?" Hong Xi'er seldom asks about the ingredients now. The inn has always had regular suppliers of vegetables, meat, grains and oils from farmer shops. After a long time, she will hand over these to Lingchu for inspection.

Yu Lingchu put down his chopsticks, and said worriedly: "Yes, it hasn't rained since summer, and the vegetables in the field are irrigated by well water and river water, and it will always be worse if there is no rainwater. I'm afraid that the price of vegetables will rise after the rain."

"Hasn't the imperial government's policy of focusing on agriculture and Sangzhong been issued long ago? Didn't the government take charge of diverting rivers to farmland?"

"There are only so many rivers, and they can't bear the water of so many villages and towns under the city of a state. It's good for us to block the clear springs. If the villages farther away don't rely on the water, they can't get through if they divert the river. They can only rely on well drilling. Water, if it doesn’t rain, the crops in the field will suffer.”

Wang Qi continued from the side: "Not only that, but the source of water is a big deal. If you divert water from one village to other villages casually, you will die. In the past, the yamen just sent people to repair the river, and at night the villagers blocked the water. Nothing happened."

Putting down the chopsticks, Lang Yuanyi couldn't help frowning and pondering. Lu Tangyi hesitated and said, "I remember there is a waterwheel, right?" She was a little unsure whether this superficial dynasty would have such a thing.

Yu Hanshi: "The water truck can't irrigate much land, and it is still difficult to manage places without water sources."

Lu Tangyi: "It stands to reason that if you want to build a village, the first thing you need to determine is the water source. How can there be a village without a water source? This is not the wilderness outside the Great Wall."

Everyone was silent, Liang Shi suddenly said: "That's the truth, but I've heard people say that the water sources of some villages were destroyed during years of wars." When the dynasty was established, there was an iron cavalry going south, and the water dried up strangely wherever they stepped, and they could not dig water out of the original place, so they had to dig wells to produce water. Later, the court wanted to divert water from other villages to flow there, but It’s never been possible.”

After he finished speaking, Yuan Yitang looked at each other and frowned.

Hong Xier: "Brother Shi, are you sure what you said?"

Liang Shi scratched his head: "I also heard it from the old people at the entrance of the village when I was walking around the streets. I don't know if it's true or not."

Yu Hanshi liked to listen to these stories of gods, gods and ghosts, and when he saw this, he didn't even bother to eat and went to Liang Shi's side, "This is the first time I've heard of this, so the village didn't invite the Great Immortal to take a look?"

"It must have been invited, but it is estimated that Taoism will not work. Think about it, it is from the royal family..." He said, pointing upwards and turning in a circle: "Spell."

The two fugitive princesses beside the table narrowed their eyes at the same time, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Brother Shi, you have traveled so many places, you must have seen many such things, is there anything else?"

"What else?"

"Is that the kind of ghost girl and fox fairy in the storybook? Is there any?"

"Tsk, there are really..."

The two started chatting about their experiences in the countryside, but Lang Yuanyi thought about the water source and iron cavalry just mentioned in his mind.

"Eat quickly." There was an extra piece of fish meat in the bowl, Yuan Yi looked at Tang Yi, and saw someone raised his head at him: "The fish is fishy when it's cold."

Hong Xi'er picked up the rice grains in the bowl, staring at the two people's movements and expressions gradually fascinated...

Needless to say, everyone cleaned up after dinner, and Tang came to the third floor as soon as he packed up.

"Do you have something to tell me?"

The two talked straight to the point without going around in circles, Yuan Yi shook his wrist, "I want to get out of here."

Lu Tang couldn't help frowning: "Where are you going?"

"Did Uncle Liu entrust someone to take care of you? Or did he tell you where to hide? Or, do you have any other explanations?" She has been thinking about this these days, and with Uncle Liu's talents, it is impossible to think of it This step, since they can think about it, there must be a way out, they can't stay in this small inn for the rest of their lives, and they should plan carefully for the future.

Lu Tangyi was fiddling with the pile of tea sets on the table. She saw that Hong Xier's unhurried manner when making tea was very good-looking, and she wanted to try it too. When she heard this, the tea lid on her hand trembled. , "Well, why do you ask this?"

Putting the tea lid back on the cup, Yuan Yi lightly tapped the table: "Tao Yi, we can't hide like this for the rest of our lives."

Lu Tang sighed, she knew that Yuan Yi would leave sooner or later, but would this day be so soon?

"Mozhou." After a long silence, she finally said, "There is the old ministry of the father over there."

Yuan Yi's eyes lit up, and he pondered for a moment: "I will first send a letter to Master to let him go to Mozhou, and now you and I are wanted everywhere outside, that one is also a deep-minded one, and you need to be more careful in everything." She finished speaking , Seeing people still frowned and said nothing, just thinking that she was worried about her future situation, Lang Yuanyi held her hand and comforted: "Don't worry, I will protect you well."

Smiling reluctantly, Lu Tang nodded, and then sighed silently.

Naturally, Lu Tang didn't sleep well that night, and when he woke up the next day, his head was still a little groggy.

"Didn't sleep well?"

Yawning and stretching, the person who splashed cold water on his face finally regained consciousness: "Well, a mosquito bit me."

Wang Qi smiled: "Mosquitoes used to bite me all the time when I lived by myself, but you are here to help me avoid mosquitoes."

The two were talking, when Liang Shi and Yu Han came out of the room, Wang Qi looked at Han Shi with dark circles and a sleepy look, wondering: "Today is weird, you are a person who can't be woken by thunder during Han Shi Didn't sleep well today?"

Liang Shi answered with a smile: "He, he pestered me to tell the story of the fox fairy in the middle of the night, he must have been frightened out of his wits."

"Who said that! I was dreaming of a fox fairy."

"Yo Xiaohan, you dreamed about Empress Fox Immortal, right?"

"Ha ha ha ha."

A few people talked and laughed and started the business of the inn for a day. Not many people came in the morning, which was a rare leisure time. Wang Qi just opened the door today, but Tan Da was already waiting outside.

"Don't buy tofu."

"Who said I'm here to sell tofu." He looked around the store as he said, and saw Liang Shi who was cleaning the table, and shouted loudly: "Brother Shi, you heard the truth yesterday, and Li Zhu called again. His daughter-in-law! Hey, that screaming sound is no worse than his usual killing of pigs."

The movement of his hands stopped, Liang Shi suddenly turned his head, and Tan Da took two steps back in fright: My good fellow, this look is trying to eat people.

Throwing down the rag in his hand, Liang Shi looked around and rushed towards the backyard. Wang Qi spat at Tan Da: "You are really afraid that the world will not be chaotic."

"Hey! What are you talking about, brother Qi, I kindly reminded Liang Shi, who doesn't know that he misses Li Zhu's wife, cut it."

When Lu Tang saw his shady face, he became irritable, raised his hand and pushed him out: "Hurry up, we still have to do business."

Tan Da saw that Lu Tangyi was also disliked by thousands of people, so he snorted immediately: "Where I like to go, I have never heard of driving away customers when I open a shop. Besides, who are you, Huanxi Inn has your turn." Call the shots."

Before Lu Tangyi could reply, a voice came from the inner hall: "If I want to open a shop, anyone who wants to do business can enter my shop, and whoever I don't want to do business can't even get in if he has money. "The few people heard the reputation and saw Hong Xi'er walking slowly waving her Qingluo fan. She still had a smile on her face, but her eyes were cold and her voice was cold, and her words sounded particularly choking: "As for her? "The fan pointed at Lu Tangyi, and the shopkeeper raised his voice: "What she said in the store is equivalent to what I said. If she tells you to go out, you can't come in. Tell me, who is she?"

Tan Da's face was embarrassed, and then he didn't know whether it was anger or embarrassment, his face turned eggplant-colored, he pointed at the two of them and was speechless for a long time, and in the end he just gave Lu Tang a hard look, turned around and raised his eyebrows. The tofu bucket is gone.

Hearing Sanniang's words, Lu Tang's ears trembled, and the two-pointed anger that made Tan Qiqi just now became very sweet, and she happily moved to Hong Xier's side: "The shopkeeper." The shopkeeper's call was three-point soft For three minutes, shopkeeper Hong was so coaxed that his heart was dizzy, and he couldn't help touching the fluffy head so close at hand.

"good."

"Hiss!" Wang Qi on the side couldn't stand it anymore, rubbed his arms and bared his teeth, "Oh my mother, I'm going to die this morning." As soon as the words fell, there was a jingle in the backyard, and the next The second door was slammed open, and the three of them turned their heads in a daze, and all of them changed their expressions.

"Brother! Put down the knife!"
