Chapter 28 Wedding Candy
  Yan Conling listened and subconsciously stood up from the couch. Lou Qixue, who had been silent all the time, quickly held her down with quick eyes and hands.

"The Huo family? The Huo family in West City?"

She didn't struggle and just lay down against him again.

Lou Qixue was slightly startled. She lowered her head and saw the bright red hair rope on her moon-white robe, gently brushing down the side of her thigh. Suddenly, as if being burned, a rouge-colored thin red appeared behind her ears.

He wanted to remind her out loud, but he couldn't refuse her.

After some back and forth, I finally noticed that the woman's eyes had not changed at all.

Then I remembered that people are blind and cannot see at all.

"If it's the Huo family in Xicheng, it's considered to be at the top of the list. It's just that it's far away from the Imperial Capital, and it keeps a low profile. Not much news can be heard."

Yan Conling asked thoughtfully, "Sister Bai Shu, do you know the young master of the Huo family?"

The two had known each other for many years, so the question was hardly offensive.

Bai Shu shook his head, "I have bad eyesight and I haven't been out of the Imperial Capital for so many years. How can I possibly know the young master of the Huo family?"

After thinking about it, he added.

"I heard that he is in poor health and has only been studying at home to support himself for many years. His biological brother Huo Dagong takes care of all external affairs."

In other words, there was no chance for the two to meet.

The more Yan Conling thought about it, the weirder it became, "Don't agree to this in a hurry. I'll check it out later."

"Do not worry."

Bai Shu smiled and said, "Even if Young Master Huo grows up to look like Pan An, I won't be able to see him. Besides, it's so hard to support this medical center. I'm going to marry a high-ranking disciple and have children after I lose my mind."

At this point, she paused.

As if he realized something, he turned his face to the side and said, "I'm sorry, I seemed to have said the wrong thing. I forgot that you just got married..."

"It's out of the way."

Naturally, Yan Conling didn't take it seriously. Seeing the young man in a daze, he didn't know what he was thinking.

Reaching out to pull the other party's sleeves, he seemed startled, and then shifted his gaze to her again.

"What, what's wrong?"

"This is Sister Bai Shu. She used to take care of me when I was injured and inconvenient. Please share the wedding candies with me."

It didn't take long after they knew they were getting married, but Yan Conngling was already very good at giving orders.

On the wedding day, she sent an invitation to Baizhu.

But this is a smart woman.

After Concubine Yao intended to marry Yan Conngling to the Sixth Prince Ning Mozhang as his concubine, she knew that the wedding banquet was for those powerful officials and she did not go that day.

Yan Conling also wrote down these true friends who never came. So I carry a handful of wedding candies with me, just in time to replenish them when I encounter them.

Of course, it was Lou Qixue who had to do the job of guessing sugar.

All she does is business, how can the Qiankun bag be used to carry candy?

A large handful of lumpy wedding candies soon fell on his hand. The young man remained silent, very straightforward and without any objection.

Holding the candy that was almost out of his grasp, Baizhu choked inexplicably.

Immediately he became happy for the other party, "Your husband is rare and considerate."

Originally, she was worried that Yan Conling would randomly recruit someone to deal with it, what if it was someone bad.

Now it seems that luck is still good.

...

The streets of Dijing are as bustling as ever.

Merchants gathered together, shoulder to shoulder, and you could even see foreign caravans leading camels, with melodious camel bells and a unique alien accent.

"Do not touch water, do not exert yourself, do not eat spicy food..."

Lou Qixue carried her back home, still mumbling the doctor's instructions that she remembered clearly. The girl moved on her back.

"hungry."

"What do you want to eat? Apart from spicy and fishy tea and wine..." He read out a long list and finally said, "Besides these, I can make it for you."

Yan Conling:...

"If you want to eat noodles, add more green onions."

"No green onions!" Lou Qixue's eyes widened.

She even dared to mention chopped green onions!

Yan Conling touched the other party's broad and strong shoulder and pretended not to hear, "Just eat from the previous stall. You didn't get it last time, please help me."

"..."

She is now more and more skillful in using these two words.

In a familiar position, the gray-haired old man held a bamboo board in one hand and a thin bamboo slice in the other, skillfully cutting out the dough and dropping it into the boiling milk-white tube bone soup.

The pieces of meat that have been stewed for several hours are soft and tender, and when you grind them, you can smell the fresh and warm aroma of the pasta.

The two of them chose the same place as last time and sat down.

There were still a lot of diners around, and amid the bustling crowd, Yan Conling noticed as soon as he raised his eyes that there were a few extra rough flatbreads sprinkled with sesame seeds on the stall.

"Old man, is this a biscuit?"

"Miss Yan has good eyesight."

The old man's attitude towards her was obviously different, "Did those caravans see you just now? My granddaughter went to the border with them to do business recently. In the future, this side will be more delicious with pancakes!"

"Then give us one each."

I've been so busy for so long that I haven't even had a good meal in peace.

The Lingcheng we went back to was even more of a food desert, and the clear soup and lack of water really didn't satisfy our cravings.

Thinking of the soft cakes and delicious soup, the man next to me suddenly said, "I don't want any more cakes."

The girl turned her gaze.

He did not forget to emphasize sternly, "Sesame is not good."

Two steaming bowls of noodles were quickly served. Yan Conling rolled the noodles while chatting, "Old man, how old is your granddaughter? How come I've never seen her before?"

Talkativeness is a good thing for their profession.

Sometimes, a lot of useful information can be found in words.

"It will be the fifteenth after this year's birthday." The old man kept his hands on his hands, but he was still able to chat with her easily. "I picked up that child at the door of my house. I guessed that some family was dissatisfied with the girl's loss of money, so I picked her up. She threw it away."

"I am a lonely person who will never raise a baby for most of my life, let alone a girl, so I can't raise one well..."

He shook off the gourd and gourd in his hand and sighed, "This girl is tougher than other boys. She keeps catching chickens and chasing dogs all day long."

"I can't keep her at home. I saw she was interested in the caravan a few days ago, so I drove her there."

"fifteen?"

Yan Conling was a little surprised, "At such a young age, can you safely let her go with the caravan?" You must know that most of the businessmen who travel such far distances are rough men.

"It's okay." There was no trace of worry on the old man's face. "That girl is very clever, and most people may not be able to beat her. The sky is vast outside, and it's always good to go out and see more."

Yan Conling's hand holding the chopsticks seemed to pause for a moment, and then she thought of something.

"Too."

"The old housekeeper from the Prince Regent's residence also came to my stall to eat noodles a few days ago." In the hot air, the old man casually muttered, "It is said that the prince's illness has become serious again, and it is not long before he sleeps." Getting longer and longer..."

Yan Conling lowered his head to eat noodles and did not answer this time.

I only put an extra ingot of silver when I left.
