Chapter 170 Rolling
In an alley turning east outside the inner city, there is a fresh fish noodle shop. When passing by, a strong smell of fresh fish soup floats into the nose.

An Xu stopped, turned around, and the three partridges who followed said, "Go in and have a look."

It was not time for dinner, but there were already two tables of people sitting there in the shop.

When An Xu came in, an old woman in clean clothes came up to greet her: "Ma'am, you are unfamiliar, is this your first visit to my noodle shop?"

"Mother-in-law has a good memory," An Xu said, and the old woman said with a smile, "Your accent is from the capital?"

An Xu nodded, sat down at a table by the window under the guidance of the old woman, and asked, "What's the signboard in your store?"

The old woman smiled and said, "The signature is our fresh fish noodles."

An Xu asked, "Aren't there any side dishes?"

"There are fried dishes."

What An Xu wanted to ask was what side dishes are there in the noodles, but depending on the situation, there should be only one type of fresh fish noodles, so he smiled and said, "Two stir-fried vegetables and two bowls of fresh fish noodles."

While waiting for the food to be served, she looked at the various people passing by outside.

"Brother, tell me, I'm really doing this right?" The conversation between the two people on the table behind came to my ears.

Then there was a low and steady voice: "900% sure. That's a master who doesn't know how to manage the house. He spends money and rewards lavishly, and his family's foundation has long been ruined. To tell you the truth, even my young wife's dowry jewelry, They've all been pawned off, and the next step is to sell the ancestral land. Just wait, within three days, you'll be guaranteed [-] taels to take over his [-] mu of top-grade land."

"Thank you, Brother Wang," the person who listened looked refreshed, raised his glass and said, "It's all in this wine, and there will be a big thank you when the time comes."

"What are you being polite about?" Brother Wang smiled, "With a master like him, we have to plan ahead."

After talking for a while, the person who asked for help paid for the meal and left.

Brother Wang just picked up his chopsticks and began to eat noodles wheezingly. When he saw the kid from Zhuge's family come out with a big tray, there were two bowls of steaming fresh fish noodles and two plates of stir-fried vegetables on it, so he couldn't help but follow him .

Seeing that these things were finally placed in front of the two female guests and the two small guests, Brother Wang took a second look. The one with his back to it looked quite slim, and the one facing him looked pretty good too. .

When did two such outstanding figures come to Huoliang City?

As he thought about it, he wiped his mouth while eating, but this didn't stop him from looking at it wantonly.

The partridge stared angrily at it, and scolded: "What are you looking at, and I've dug out your dog's eyes."

Brother Wang lowered his head and didn't return his words. He still had this wink. Seeing that the two women dressed in clothes must be the daughters of wealthy families.

As long as it is related to wealth and honor, it is not easy to mess with.

But he scolded the little whore in his heart.

An Xu also looked back, he was just a naughty street person who winked at the partridge, as long as this kind of person doesn't offend, don't bother.

"I smell really delicious, try it." An Xu handed a pair of chopsticks to Partridge, asked the shopkeeper for two more bowls and chopsticks, and took some from his own bowl to Yan Diu and Yan Zhun brothers.

I just had breakfast, I'm not hungry at all, just taste the taste.

As soon as he took a bite of the noodles, An Xu understood why the noodles of this restaurant were called fresh fish noodles. When the noodles were mixed, they were mixed with fish.

Only ginger and star anise are used to remove the fishy smell. Due to the matching portion, the fishy smell is perfectly suppressed.

While eating, a fat monk and a 50-year-old middle-aged man with oily clothes came in.

"Brother Wang, I'm looking for you."

As soon as they came in, they went straight to the table behind An Xu.

The job bowl in front of Old Brother Wang was almost clean, he quickly wiped his mouth, and greeted the two people who came over, "Master Zhitong, Father Mo. I also said the day before yesterday that the fresh peach feast at Father Mo's house is good, when will we come again?" Let's have a meal."

Father Mo said with a smile: "Brother Wang is a blessing to us, he can come whenever he wants."

The two sat down and shouted directly inside: "Boy Zhuge, three bowls of fresh fish noodles."

Brother Wang quickly raised his hand to stop, "Eat, I just ate a bowl."

The monk said: "Brother Wang has a lot of food, it's okay to eat another bowl."

"No matter how big the belly is, this bowl of noodles from Zhuge's family is enough to fill you up."

While joking, the kid above came up to him and asked, "How many bowls do you want?"

Father Mo hurriedly said: "Three bowls, three bowls, cook the noodles quickly."

The monk said: "Brother Wang is always well-informed, but he heard that the sky above our Huoliang City is going to be changed?"

Brother Wang looked around and said in a low voice: "I know people in the inner city. I heard that they had already entered the city last night, and His Highness the Second Highness came out of the mansion to greet them in person. However, I don't believe that the foundation that was managed so easily , Second Highness is willing to give up to others."

"Then tell me, will the wind in our city change drastically?"

"Let's just watch, it's hard to say." Brother Wang shook his head like an expert.

Father Mo is a tenant of Old Brother Wang's main family, the Bai family. He climbed up to Old Brother Wang at the expense of his own daughter, and he couldn't understand what they were talking about.

When their conversation finally turned from top to bottom, they opened their mouths and said: "Brother Wang, I have always heard that your master is generous and generous. My son is going to get married soon. The family is still a mud house with no acre of thin land, so I just want to Can you ask your master to help you?"

"This, it's a bit difficult," Brother Wang fiddled with the chopsticks in front of him, talking about the recent expenses of the Bai family, why the old hunter who provided game to their house broke his leg, he begged the master In front of him, the master saw his filial piety, and gave him 50 taels. It was another female guest who went to their house to sell flowers. The daughter of the family had developed an insane disease for some reason.

Lala talked a lot, and with Father Mo's face getting paler and paler, Brother Wang said slowly: "Like our family, even if we have a hundred years of savings, we can't help such a loose master. The family can move The money is all gone."

Father Mo's face turned completely pale, but there was a sudden turn of the line. Brother Wang said again: "However, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and our family still has some ancestral property. The young master is planning to sell the land these few days, so you can buy it." Don't go out of the city, just wait here, as soon as I get the money, I will take you into the mansion immediately."

Father Mo was so excited immediately, he stood up and bowed again and again, "Thank you very much."

At this time, Zhuge boy came with three bowls of noodles. He looked down upon Old Brother Wang who was helping others to fool his master for a little benefit, so he put down the bowls and left quickly.

The three people here didn't care, and Brother Wang whispered again: "There is only one thing, you have to say that when the time comes."

When Father Mo heard this, he quickly bowed his head and asked for advice.

Brother Wang said: "Let's say that your child has a relationship with someone's daughter for a long time, but recently it's because Nacai is short of money to set the money, and the girl's family is going to withdraw the marriage."

Father Mo was not sure: "Is that okay?"

Old Brother Wang patted the table and said, "My young master, who regards himself as a hero in the storybook, if you say that, everything will be fine."

At this time, the monk said: "Brother Wang, look, my temple gate is too broken, I want to rebuild it."

Brother Wang said boldly again: "This is even better. At that time, you can just say that you dreamed of a Bodhisattva in a dream one night, and talk about a few gods. A hundred taels of silver is not a problem."

"If there is such a thing,"

"Treasurer, check out."

The monk's words were interrupted by a female voice, he looked up and saw a girl with a cold face, and the person standing beside her seemed to be the master.

Both the master and the servant and the two children next to them were well dressed, so they didn't dare to look around to find trouble.

Two bowls of noodles and two dishes of [-] cents, Partridge paid the money and let his lady and the two young masters go first.

After she got out of the door, she took a deep breath and said, "The air inside is really turbid."

An Xu didn't feel much. When she started doing business, even if she was kind to others, she met all kinds of wonderful people. People like Brother Wang are actually not uncommon on the street.

But such people generally have no serious business to do, and just take advantage of the gossip.

An Xu also didn't sympathize with the young master Wang was talking about, but only felt sorry for Mrs. Bai, who was only mentioned once.

I'm afraid life will be difficult for such a man at the booth.

After coming out of the fresh fish noodle restaurant, the sun was already rising. An Xu started from this street. When he saw a shop with a closed door facing the street, he would go up to ask someone for the price, and when he saw a shop selling food, he would go in. Buy some to try.

Seeing that it was noon, they returned to the inner city.

The four of them were carrying food bought on the road, and An Xu asked them what kind of food they liked best, some said meat pie, some said stewed pork, and some said fresh fish noodles.

"Miss An is back." As soon as she entered the second gate of the Governor's Mansion, she saw the second wife who entertained her yesterday came forward, "I thought you went to the barracks outside with Mr. Zong, but it turned out that you went out for a stroll. Why? In this way, Huoliang City is not worse than Beijing City, right?"

An Xu smiled and said, "Each has its own merits. I don't know what the second lady is waiting for me?"

The second lady raised her hand and licked the broken hair around her ears. No matter her posture or her appearance, there was a sense of coquettishness.

An Xu felt that she was very happy, and it was based on the kind of pleasure that completely crushed another woman in appearance.

"It's nothing wrong," said the second lady, "I'm going back to Beijing with His Highness tomorrow, and I want to ask if you can adapt to life here?"

As he spoke, he held An Xu's arm in a friendly manner, and led her inside, "Let's go, this military governor's mansion is empty, you don't know how much effort the prince spent to build this mansion."

She pointed to the east and west sides, the bright red Koudan on her slender nails was shining in the sun, "There are more than twenty courtyards on both sides of this thing, and the half near the center has jade floor heating."

The second lady smiled embarrassedly, "Don't say that we are extravagant. The northern border is different from the Central Plains. As soon as September enters, the weather can get cold overnight. If you don't get good floor heating, don't worry about it." Frozen Shaman."

An Xu didn't know what she was going to say, and said with a smile, "It's understandable."

The second lady glanced at Mrs. Zong, but no shock or envy could be seen on her face.

In fact, it was a bit shocking. After all, you have to be rich to have the capital to lay jade floor heating.

To say Xinxian, not at all.

In modern times, she has never experienced any high-tech means of heating.
