Whose little lady is so crazy?

Chapter 47 The Old Man

Even if you are curious, you won’t keep staring at it!

"I'm jealous of how comfortable we are," Hong Xiaoduo said. From this distance, he could clearly see the expressions on each other's faces. They all looked upright and didn't look like villains!

She was just bringing a group of children with her, so she wouldn't make them take any precautions.

Besides, the terrain here is flat and the view is wide, making it a good place to kill without stopping.

Hong Xiaoduo turned his head and picked up another sesame seed cake to eat. The weather was starting to get colder, so it was not appropriate to buy some food and take it on the road as a meal.

Things like steamed buns and meatloaf are too hard to eat when cold, and if you don't prepare them well, they will upset your stomach.

Tianshu said it would be easy to handle, just collect firewood and make a fire to bake it as before.

You can just pick up firewood to bake some dry food, but it also rains in late autumn. What about rainy days?
  Yes, what to do on a rainy day? There is no weather forecast in this dynasty. Looking at the weather, there are dark clouds and there may be rain. Her ability can only go so far.

No, this is the key point to remember. Next time, after connecting with the old man at the Science and Technology Museum, ask him to find a way to give her an object that can predict the weather.

If you buy another donkey cart, you don't have to worry about who will drive the cart. You can just tie the reins to the original donkey cart.

We need to buy another tent, one for resting and one for heating dry food and boiling water.

The old man got off the carriage and walked towards Hong Xiaoduo and the others, with the guards following closely behind.

"What are you doing? Didn't you see that it was a young lady and a few children? I'm not the one on the dragon throne. Why is it so exaggerated?" The old man noticed and turned around and said displeased.

When the guards who followed him heard this, they almost broke out in a cold sweat. They said to themselves that the Lord had been depressed all the way after leaving the capital this time and rarely spoke. Opening your mouth now is so scary.

"What, my words don't work now?" The old man's eyes were firm and sharp, and a majesty that could not be ignored emanated from him. The guards exchanged glances with each other and respectfully retreated to their original positions.

The old man raised his feet and continued walking forward, getting closer and closer. He saw that several children had turned and looked towards him, their eyes full of wariness.

He walked over by himself, and these children were still nervous. If the guards were to follow him, there was no telling how frightened these children would be.

"Children, don't be afraid. I'm not a bad person. The reason why I came here is to see how good the atmosphere is. I wanted to join in the fun. I wonder if it's okay?" After saying this, the old man looked at Hong Xiaoduo.

She is the biggest one here, so the decision should be in her hands, right?

"Of course. Let's rest here and have something for lunch. If I don't mind, you can eat with us." Hong Xiaoduo looked at the old man and said with a smile.

The old man was in good spirits, and his face was engraved with the traces of time. It was a kind of wisdom and calmness that had experienced the accumulation of time. Just by looking at him, you can tell that he is a very upright and good old man.

He didn't let the guards follow him just now, probably because he was afraid of scaring the children. Hong Xiaoduo had no reason to refuse such a person.

Hearing her answer, the children sitting around quickly moved out of a vacant seat. The old man took off his boots and sat down cross-legged.

"Father, eat sesame cakes." Kaiyang said as he pushed the bowl of sesame cakes in front of him toward the old man.

"Father, eat it, it's delicious." Yao Guang urged when he saw that the old man didn't make a move. Several other children also pushed the food closest to them towards the old man.

"Okay, you're welcome then." The old man responded with a smile, reached for a sesame seed cake and took a bite under the watchful eyes of a circle of children.

The shell, which has been brushed with oil, sugar and dipped in sesame seeds, is crispy and fragrant. The inside is mixed with the fat meat cubes and dried vegetables that have become translucent due to baking. The fragrance is also a little spicy: "Eh? Really?" It's very fragrant." The old man only took one bite and said to Yao Guang.

"Really, I didn't lie to the eldest father?" Yao Guang was happy.

The old man nodded repeatedly and said: "No, no." Then he looked at Kaiyang and said, this is the best sesame seed cake I have ever eaten in my life. "

Hong Xiaoduo listened and wanted to laugh when he looked at the old man. He was so good at coaxing children.

This kind of sesame seed cake is also available in modern times. I ate it in a town called Meicheng in Jiande City on the edge of Hangzhou. It was really delicious and I could eat several in one sitting.

Although she has only eaten here three times and bought it from three places since arriving here, she feels that both appearance and taste are similar.

Thinking of this, Hong Xiaoduo couldn't help laughing. She still remembered Meicheng Town, but she couldn't remember where she lived and what happened at home?

"Don't laugh, little lady, what I said is true." Seeing her smile, the old man explained.

Hong Xiaoduo waved his hand quickly: "I misunderstood, I just thought of other things and didn't mean to laugh at you."

The old man smiled and nodded. Just as he finished eating the sesame seed cake in his hand, a child next to him handed over a piece of dried meat.

These dolls are so enthusiastic, the old man thought to himself.

"Father, I have washed my hands and they are clean." The person who handed the dried meat was Tian Quan. Seeing that the old man looked at the dried meat but did not accept it, he hurriedly explained.

The old man grinned and quickly took the dried meat: "I'm not afraid that your hands will be unclean, but I didn't expect that this is our first meeting and you guys are treating me so well."

"By the way, I have a question, why are these children hairless? Is it some kind of custom you have? Or?" The old man couldn't help but asked curiously.

"Well, it's just that they all had lice in their hair before, so I shaved their heads to save trouble," Hong Xiaoduo told them.

It's just a casual acquaintance, so there's no need to explain it in such detail.

So that's what happened. After the old man suddenly understood, he began to think in his heart. Although these children were a little thinner, judging from their mental state and clothes, the conditions were not bad. Even if they accidentally happened. If you have lice, just patiently search for them and remove them. There is no need to shave all your hair. Is that too exaggerated?

Furthermore, in "The Book of Filial Piety: Kaizong Mingyi", the body, hair and skin are received from parents and dare not be damaged." This means that the body, limbs, hair and skin are all given by parents and cannot be easily damaged or even destroyed. This is filial piety. start.

Only those who have seen through the world of mortals can become monks and become monks.

Moreover, from the few words of this little lady, he heard a key word. 'She' shaved their heads to save trouble. This meant that she could make decisions and make the final decision. Could it be that she didn't have any elders above her?
  At a very young age, he thought he had never done anything rash in his decades of life. Now he was like an old woman in an alley, wanting to know what the relationship was between this young woman and her seven children. …
