Chapter 11 The most dangerous thing?

Tang Zangyue turned her head to the yamen servant and said, "Brother Shi, this person has nothing to do with us, so you can deal with him as you like."

The servants deliberated for a few seconds before releasing Mrs. Zhang.

She really looked down on Mrs. Zhang.

Even though Mrs. Zhang has the opportunity and some money in her hands, how can she lack these things?Do you need something from Mrs. Zhang?

Tang Zangyue watched Zhang's courtship to Xiao Jinghuan and Xiao Zhongli's father and son with cold eyes, but the latter treated him coldly without being moved at all.Instead, she gave her a satisfactory answer.

After walking for a day, Tang Zangyue said to the elder brother: "I hope that the elder brother will be successful, let me go to a nearby town to buy some things."

After she finished speaking, she gave Brother Cha a few pieces of silver.

Yamen servants also want oil and water.

The prisoners who were escorted into exile were all those rich families who used to have official positions. Even if these people were ransacked, they still had a bit of background.Search and search, you can get it in your own hands.

They didn't want to charge the Xiao family a needle and a thread.

The old general of the Xiao family, who opened up the territory of Chu State, the sons below, dead and useless, watched the old lady survive for decades, and the grandchildren were also sent to the border, but they were copied by the court. After leaving home, he was sent to that barren land as a commoner!

Everyone knows what is waiting for this family...

Not to mention these yamen servants, even the in-laws and elders in the family have repeatedly told them not to embarrass the members of the Xiao family.

but……

It's a bastard who doesn't take money.

"Coincidentally, we have to rectify and rest today. It doesn't matter if you come back later, old lady."

Tang Zangyue smiled and said, "Okay."

Tang Zangyue called the two children, Xiao Zhongli and Xiao Yuechun, and went to the town on foot to do shopping.

They don't even have a basket...

Tang Zangyue bought some people to eat, and then came food and the like.I haven't purchased meat for the time being. As for vegetables, she saw a lot of wild vegetables along the way, all of which can be picked and cooked.

For the sake of convenience, she bought a car and asked Xiao Zhongli and Xiao Yuechun to work together to carry the grain up there, and bought some things to make fire, and planned to do some things by herself.

"You and Yuechun are waiting here."

"Yes, old lady/grandmother."

Seeing that Xiao Zhongli hesitated to speak, Tang Zangyue didn't ask any more questions, and quickened his pace, but jumped into the sky at the corner of the alley, with his legs propping up on two narrow walls.

For a moment.

Sure enough, the bastard followed her.

"What are you looking at?"

Xiao Zhongli's body froze, he didn't dare to raise his head, his grandmother was already jumping down, standing in front of him.

"Grandmother." Xiao Zhongli said respectfully.

"Want to follow?"

Xiao Zhongli met Shangtang Zangyue's gaze, and said sonorously: "I am also a descendant of the Xiao family, and I have the right to shoulder great responsibilities, instead of living under the protection of my grandmother all my life."

This is really young master...

Tang Zangyue smiled slightly, "That's right, he is indeed the son of our Xiao family."

"Grandma, aren't you angry?"

"Why should I be angry?"

Seeing that Xiao Zhongli was still hesitating to speak, Tang Zangyue said, "Remember, the reason why our Xiao family doesn't have the smoky atmosphere of other families is because we have to speak out! We can't play those insidious tricks on our family members.

Of course, the disaster at the General’s Mansion this time is also related to being too upright. We can unanimously play tricks externally, but we must be honest with each other internally, understand? "

"I understand, grandmother."

Tang Zangyue nodded with satisfaction.

She was in front, Xiao Zhongli was behind.

Ever since she got here, she hadn't had a good time to see this ancient scene.

In the capital city, there are many forces staring at him. When he came out of the dungeon, people walked in a hurry. Only when they arrived in the small town did they appreciate the ancient humanities.

A small town is not as good as a capital city.

The building is similar to the rural houses of later generations, but it is not as good as the self-built houses made of bricks.

The townspeople look thin, but they look energetic, especially with thick hair, bright eyes, and the pursuit of life.

In ancient times, people traveled by horse-drawn cart or mule cart, and most poor people traveled on foot.

It is rare to see women going out in the capital, but in the small towns there is no such consideration, men, women and children can be seen on the street.

After inquiring, I realized that today is the day for going to the market, and there are relatively close contacts.

There are still women guarding the street stalls.

She took Xiao Zhongli to sit down, and said: "Madam Boss, here are two bowls of wontons."

"Alright, two bowls of wontons!"

Xiao Zhongli hesitated to speak, she raised her hand and said: "Since you follow me, watch more and listen more, talk less, understand?"

"Understood grandma."

If Xiao Zhongli could be alone, she would naturally not say these words.

Seafood wontons are freshly wrapped and served quickly. Tang Zangyue tasted the taste and found that the ingredients are real and delicious.It's not worse than later generations.

It seems that gourmet food is very popular no matter what era it is, but the transportation was not developed in ancient times, and the transportation of coastal foods such as dried shrimps and seaweed was inconvenient.

Before they finished eating, some customers asked the proprietress to argue.

"Why do you have a few more copper coins than other wontons?! Steal money!"

The proprietress smiled apologetically, "Guest officer, you are reasonable, do other people have so much food? There is also the shrimp skin seaweed at the bottom of the bowl. I asked someone to bring it. It is a coastal thing. It is expensive, and I can't spend it. You can get it for less money. It’s not cheap.”

Reach out and don't hit the smiling person, and the guests will eat their own food when they see other tables. They are obviously regular customers and know some inside tricks.

The guest, who knew he was in the wrong, muttered: "Then the price can't be so high."

The proprietress saw that he was still so recalcitrant, she turned cold, and said: "I'm also responsible for this matter when I go to the master of the yamen."

The guest's face changed slightly, he left the money in a hurry, and fled in despair.

After Tang Zangyue finished eating, paid the bill, and led Xiao Zhongli away, she asked, "What do you see?"

Xiao Zhongli thought about it for a while, and then said: "There are people in the yamen of the proprietress who sells wontons."

Hearing this, Tang Zangyue's eyes fell on Xiao Zhongli's body for a moment before he restrained himself.

In the original owner's memory, Xiao Zhongli had suffered a lot when he was a child and lost his health. Even if he was taken back to the General's Mansion, he couldn't recover well.Can do heavy work, but it is not material for soldiers to go to the battlefield.

The original owner protected Xiao Zhongli, but did not train him as his successor.

In Tang Zangyue's view, this child is thoughtful and can see through the essence of things at a glance, which is a rare skill.

Tang Zangyue said casually: "Do you know why I took you to that booth?"

Xiao Zhongli turned his head, stared at the stall that was gradually going away for a few seconds, then retracted his gaze, and said: "The owner of the stall doesn't have many customers, but he is very peaceful. The tables and chairs are complete, the booth is clean, and even the proprietress..."

Xiao Zhongli's ears turned red and he didn't say any more.

After all, he was a teenager, but because of the strict distinction between men and women in ancient times, he didn't speak falsely about the proprietress.

But Tang Zangyue said for him: "The charm is still there."

Xiao Zhongli looked at her in bewilderment.

Tang Zangyue said again: "The family members of our General's Mansion have been demoted to concubine status. Brother Li, do you know how to make a living in the future?"

"Grandma wants to..."

Tang Zangyue interrupted casually, with a strong trendy flavor, "Today's son thought that the country that the Xiao family had built for him should be stable, but the Huns on the border were still eyeing them, and they were discouraged by the majesty of the Xiao family. You know, what is waiting for us in this exile?
It's not the hardships at the frontier, nor the difference in life after being demoted to common people.

The most dangerous thing is on this road of exile. "

Tang Zangyue said with emotion: "Perhaps our Xiao family has become innocent souls before arriving in the place of exile."
