Chapter 157 Heavy Rain (3)

The wet and cold rain fell all over the Qingshi long street, and the people on the street were hurriedly walking in twos and threes. An express train left the mediocre city and went around the suburban road. After driving for a long time, the carriage stopped at a fork in the road. An inconspicuous carriage came up from the fork, and no one dismounted after the two carts approached, and soon the two carts separated, one of them was heading west, while the other was heading for the mediocre city.

After a while, the carriage was stopped, and the driver was forced to stop and rein in his horse. Looking at the two people blocking the way ahead, he said loudly, "Who is blocking the way?"

The two were wearing rain hats, and half of their bodies had already been drenched by the rain, but they didn't care about it, and they didn't speak for a while.

The coachman said again: "Presumptuous! Do you know whose carriage you stopped? This is the carriage of General Li's family from the Li family."

Dong Jiu grinned and approached without saying a word, the coachman immediately became nervous, seeing him getting closer and closer, exuding a murderous look all over his body, he immediately wanted to draw the knife at the side, but was kicked back before the knife was out of its sheath , the coachman was startled suddenly, before he could react, he just felt a chill in his neck, and then he jumped out of the car, Dong Jiu brandished a knife and went inside to arrest the man, but unexpectedly, the car was empty!

Both of them were shocked, Jin Wei said: "Ninth brother, what's going on?"

Dong Jiu's eyes showed coldness: "We have all been tricked by Pan Rubo!"

Jin Wei was surprised, and asked: "Then what should we do now?" Maybe he hasn't entered the city yet!You lead people to follow Pan Rubo, Qing Feng is already on the way to Xilin, everything depends on him. "

The guard nodded, walked back quickly, got on his horse and chased after Pan Rubo, Dong Jiu didn't dare to delay, and immediately turned back to chase the people from the Li family. In fact, he knew in his heart that the two of them had been slipped this way, and now they might have already entered the city But he had no choice but to chase after it. If the matter went wrong, he would have to go back to the house to communicate, so that Lu Chengfeng could have a contingency plan.

In the city of mediocrity.

As the sky darkened, Sanniang was holding a food box under an umbrella. Shengfang was not far from the Plum Garden. It would be hypocritical to ride a carriage on this section of the road. Sanniang was carrying two big boxes in one hand, one for tomorrow's festival. A box of pastries, a box of sugar-free snacks specially made for Lu Chengfeng, the uppers of her shoes were soaked just after walking a few steps, she didn't care at all, her mind was full of whether Xie Jiuxiao would be satisfied with this box of pastries, Shengfang had a There hasn't been a new style for a while, and I just took advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival, a family reunion festival, to plan and plan.

Turning around the alley, suddenly her eyes went dark, and she bumped into someone solidly. Sanniang was hit by the wall, and she was so frightened that she almost threw the things in her hands out. The man also had a frightened look on his face, and he couldn't get angry immediately, and said: "What's the matter with you, walk carefully!"

The young man turned his head and left before he finished speaking. San Niang was so unreasonable that he looked unhappy, and she muttered a few times and was about to move forward when suddenly she stepped on something. She looked down and saw that it was a Sanniang hurriedly picked up the gold medal and turned around, but there was no one in the rain.

All the guards in the Plum Garden recognized her, Sanniang carried her things all the way to the garden, the guards had already spoken, and just nodded at the person, Sanniang understood and stepped into the door.

The room was lighted with incense, Lu Chengfeng was sitting by the window and was writing something, Xie Jiuxiao stood with his eyes down slightly, with a gentle smile in his eyes.

Sitting and standing, the usual scene.

Sanniang was stunned for a moment, and she stood aside wisely without making a sound. Xie Jiuxiao looked at the paper she was writing full of, and showed a look of praise: "Looking at it this way, there is indeed progress."

Lu Chengfeng said, "Why do these words sound so forced?"

Xie Jiuxiao said in a low voice: "You have wronged me, I'm afraid there will be no one who is more sincere than me in the world."

Lu Chengfeng smiled lowly, stopped writing, and looked over: "San Niang is here."

Sanniang immediately raised her head and smiled brightly at the person: "Miss Lu, young master."

She placed the food box on the table and said: "Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival. I have made some new dim sum. I want the young master to try it. Every household will inevitably use dim sum tomorrow, so I decided to try a few."

Lu Chengfeng smiled and said, "San Niang has worked hard."

When Lu Chengfeng spoke with a smile, his whole body showed a faint easy-going, Sanniang stayed with her in Qinyuan for a long time, and she understood a little bit, she was so gentle, Sanniang immediately lost a lot of restraint, and said with a smile: "I beat Xiao Ai to do these."

Xie Jiuxiao had already walked over, looking at the dim sum served out, there are round and curved in different styles, but the appearance is very delicate, Sanniang said: "I named these moon cakes, what do you think, young master?"

While the two were talking, Lu Chengfeng also came over and glanced at him. Xie Jiuxiao had already slowly hid one by one, and finally picked up the tea and nodded: "It's still good."

Sanniang's face brightened, and she said, "Then I'll prepare when I go back."

Xie Jiuxiao said, "No hurry, has the price been set yet?"

San Niang said: "Two for one."

Xie Jiuxiao stared at the four or five dishes on the table, thought for a while, and said: "The family bought some wooden boxes a while ago, and they have a faint smell of pear blossom wood. I think they are quite suitable for these things. Since it is the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion day , There is absolutely no reason to sell these snacks made for festivals alone, and the cakes of Shengfang are served in a good pear blossom wooden box, so the price cannot be lowered.”

Lu Chengfeng listened from the side, and this method seemed to be a bit mysterious. Sanniang's dim sum was indeed excellent, and Shengfang had gained a reputation. If it was decorated and publicized, it would indeed be a good idea to make money.

Sanniang is not stupid, Xie Jiuxiao immediately understood what she said, and nodded in agreement. Seeing that Xie Jiuxiao had no intention of eating any more, she bent down to clean up. Just as she was serving the dish, something suddenly fell out of her arms. Niang whispered softly, hurried to pick it up, and was about to put it into her arms, when her wrist was suddenly grabbed hard, Lu Chengfeng narrowed his eyes: "Where did it come from?"

Sanniang replied honestly: "A young man dropped it on the way here just now. I think it is gold. I guess he will look for it later and not lose it."

Lu Chengfeng took the gold medal, looked it over slowly, and showed a meaningful smile

Sanniang saw that her expression was wrong, so she kept silent, and after a while, Lu Chengfeng held the gold medal and said, "Sanniang, go find the pear blossom wooden box."

Sanniang nodded and packed up and went out.

Lu Chengfeng looked down at the gold medal in his hand, Xie Jiuxiao approached, took it, looked at it, and said, "What is this?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "With the passing order of the West Camp, you can enter and exit the West Camp unimpeded."

Xie Jiuxiao remembered the two people Lu Chengfeng met this morning, and said, "What happened to Xi Daying?"

Lu Chengfeng sneered, with a sarcasm and mocking tone: "I'm afraid it's not the West Camp, but something happened to the Four Camps."

Xie Jiuxiao was surprised: "What?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "The family members of the Li and Zou families have quietly transferred to Lingguang Temple. This is not a good sign. Under what circumstances do you think the masters of the two camps will quietly transfer their families?"
