Five cubs at the beginning: the vicious stepmother turns over and becomes a group favorite

Chapter 88
When Ji Zhixu chased him out, Mu Daiyao was nowhere to be seen.

When he walked all the way to the market and didn't see Mu Daiyao, and asked several villagers along the way, but no one saw him, Ji Zhixu began to feel a little anxious.

At this time, just as Mu Daiyao left the old doctor's front foot, Ji Zhixu also ran in on the back foot.

"Isn't this Xiao Xu!"

The old doctor who was sitting and taking the pulse immediately recognized Ji Zhixu. You must know that there are many medicinal herbs in the herbal medicine shop that Ji Zhixu hunted down from the back mountain.

Ji Zhixu was not in the mood to greet the old doctor, but went straight to the point.

"Doctor, have you seen my wife?"

The old doctor came forward to greet him enthusiastically, and then asked with some doubts: "Xiao Xu, who is the lady you are talking about?"

It was obvious that the old doctor didn't know who the lady Ji Zhixu was referring to was.

Ji Zhixu paused for a moment before realizing that he had never formally brought Yaoniang to meet the villagers before.

After a while, Ji Zhixu roughly described Mu Daiyao's clothes today to the old doctor. The old doctor frowned slightly, and then suddenly realized: "It turned out to be Miss Mu, but she didn't wear a woman's hair. She is an unmarried eldest daughter, I didn't expect her to be your wife, Xiao Xu."

Yaoniang didn't comb her hair in a bun?
Ji Zhixu narrowed his eyes slightly, and after thinking about it, it seemed that it was indeed the case.

In the past, he didn't pay attention to this point, but now he was reminded by someone else, and his heart "thumped", with some indescribably complicated feelings.

"By the way, Brother Xu, before your wife left, she asked about the way to the town. Maybe she went to the town?"

Just when Ji Zhixu thought that he would not get any news from the pharmacy and was about to leave, the young man next to the old doctor suddenly clapped his hands, which really reminded him.

"By the way, Yaoniang can dress up as she feels comfortable. I have never asked her anything."

After Ji Zhixu verbally thanked the old doctor and the buddy, he seemed to suddenly think of something at the door of the pharmacy.

He stopped in his tracks, turned his head slightly, and casually gave a mouthful to the clerk and the old doctor in the pharmacy.

When Ji Zhixu was gone, the little boy in the pharmacy said to the old doctor with emotion: "I didn't expect Brother Ji to love my wife so much, and I never saw him mention it before."

"You are still young, you can't look at things so superficially."

"Master, what do you mean by that, the apprentice doesn't understand."

The old doctor stroked his long gray beard, didn't say anything, just cheerfully took the patient's pulse again.

At this time, Mu Daiyao had already walked to the town, and her throat was almost full of smoke.

Originally, I wanted to buy a bowl of tea on the side of the road, but it was strange that there was no tea shop in the town all the way.

It was not easy to see an old Li tea room not far away, but when Mu Daiyao came close and looked inside, there was no waiter, and the tables and chairs at the door were covered with a lot of dust. It has not been opened for a long time.

"strangeness."

Mu Daiyao frowned, and shouted two more times, seeing that no one answered her, she had to walk out again with a puzzled expression.

"Little girl, are you looking for Lao Li?"

At this moment, an old woman carrying a parcel and wiping her sweat happened to pass by. Seeing Mu Daiyao standing at the door of the tea shop and looking around, she stopped where she was and asked her enthusiastically.

Seeing this, Mu Daiyao hurriedly took a step forward, and asked politely: "Yes, ma'am, I remember that this tea shop was open every day before, why is it closed today?"

"Oh, you mean Old Li's house, don't you know girl, he doesn't dare to come to open a shop these days."

"Why is that?"

Mu Daiyao asked with some doubts.

The aunt just happened to be tired from walking, so she pulled a stool beside her and dusted off the dust, sat down to rest her feet, and continued to explain to Mu Daiyao: "I don't know where a group of robbers have come from everywhere in the past few days. They set fire to looting, and all the nearby houses were ruined, so how dare they come out and open a shop."

"Rooters?"

Mu Daiyao froze for a moment, she thought it was just a lie fabricated by Ji Zhixu, just to deceive her and make her feel scared, but she didn't expect that there were robbers nearby.

"Of course, otherwise, why would every household in this neighborhood shut their doors and windows tightly, and even Lao Li, a money-loving ghost, wouldn't come out to do business? It's not my aunt, I'm nagging, you are so beautiful like a girl, it's better not to go alone On this mountain road, if Bao Buqi is taken away by robbers, there is no place to cry."

Hearing this, Mu Daiyao couldn't help biting her lips, an unspeakable panic welled up in her heart.

After all, she had never traveled alone before she was reborn, let alone the possibility of encountering a robber, which was simply unthinkable.

Seeing this well-born girl in front of her with an incredible expression on her face, she clearly didn't believe what she said, the aunt suddenly became a little unhappy, she got up and patted her buttocks and wanted to leave.

"Hey, ma'am, thank you for telling me the news, and this, you can take it to cushion your stomach on the road."

Seeing that the kind-hearted aunt was about to leave, Mu Daiyao hurriedly followed and thanked her sincerely, then took out homemade braised pork pancakes from the basket in her hand and gave it to the aunt.

"Damn, little girl, what are you doing? Ma'am, I didn't tell you this just to ask for your things."

"Auntie, just take it. For you, telling me this news is a matter of effort, so I will give you this as a reward for your effort, and ah, this is not an ordinary pancake. Try it, it is delicious gone."

"That's it, then I'll accept it."

The old lady is also a sincere person. The girl in front of her met her and even chased her to give her this pancake. It must be no polite words.

After she shied away for a while, she finally accepted it, and she did not forget to kindly tell Mu Daiyao: "Girl, you should hurry back to the official road. Although this small road is close to the town, it is quite dangerous. Yes, no one knows if something will happen suddenly."

As she was talking, the old lady became more and more worried about Mu Daiyao. She patted the back of Mu Daiyao's hand, inexplicably thought of her daughter who was about the same age in her family, and added worriedly: "What's more Girl, you are single and more dangerous, so don't take it lightly!"

Mu Daiyao understood the kindness of the old lady, she supported the other party's arm, nodded and said: "I understand, thank you, aunt, I will go back to the official road, aunt, you should also pay attention to safety."

"Hey, I'm an old man, what would the robbers see in me?"
