lying down

Ten days ago, at the beginning of Shenshi, Bingzhou Jinyang City, Guiyun Tower.

"Little Er, check out!"

"Come here, a plate of sauced duck, a portion of steamed Yellow River carp, two bottles of green bamboo leaves, two bowls of river fishing, and a plate of peanuts for the shop. Guest officer, Cheng Hui has a hanging of eighty coins—" Li Jinlai, the younger brother, said eloquently Sing it, with a long tone.In fact, he deliberately amplified his voice so that passers-by outside the thick curtain not far away could hear him, maybe he could attract one or two guests.

After collecting the money, Li Jinlai put the white towel on his left hand, smiled like a blooming flower on his face, bowed and politely sent the guests out of the table, and then sang loudly: "You come here often, take your time!" let's go-"

Turning around and going back to the store, there was a gloomy look on his face.He leaned on a row of red-lacquered poplar cabinets on the right side of the store door, looked up at the four scattered tables of guests in the hall on the first floor, and couldn't be happy even if he wanted to.

In less than two days since the new owner turned around to Guiyun Restaurant, he hurried away without seeing anyone, not even leaving a whispered explanation.The brothers of the new owner's house also don't understand the business of opening a door, but they are a few good door gods, and they keep the local hooligans in the nearby four streets and sixteen lanes, but that can't be exchanged for white money.

A few days ago, five people, old and young, young and strong, came again. General Tingge said that they were the adoptive mother's family of the host family. Now they all lived in the backyard.

"Ah—" He bowed his head and let out a long sigh, remembering the damn year. Since the drought and locust disaster in the late spring and early summer months, the business of the restaurant has not seen much improvement.

"Oh, what? You are an old man who has been in the store for six years, so you don't have any sense of value! You can't see the depth of the new owner? Didn't you hear that even the Dudu Mansion will treat the new owner as an honored guest? What are you worried about? If you have the time to moan and sigh, why don’t you go and serve those tables of guests!” The accountant old Wang, who was leaning over the counter and counting the pages of the account books, raised his shiny The abacus is ready to play.

Secondary Li Jinlai hurriedly dodged and gave a dry laugh.Smoothed the white towel on his arm, and walked towards the tables of guests.After walking two steps, I suddenly heard the sound of opening the door curtain, and hurriedly put on a spring breeze to greet her.

"Guest..." Just as I uttered the word, I swallowed the words that followed.I saw the crowds of people wearing thick linen and white shirts, their icy faces were a little bit colder than the snow falling all over their heads, and there was no trace of fireworks at all.

"Qin, Brother Qin, the new owner hasn't come back yet, so you're probably going to run away for nothing." Xiaoer said with a frown, but hurriedly dodged away.The young man in front of him always gave him an inexplicable aura, like... like a trapped wolf, the beast's aura was faint but chilling.

Qin Feng didn't even stop walking, and walked straight to the backyard of the restaurant.

Li Jin, the second child, slammed his mouth and raised his eyebrows, feeling that he was making fun of himself.Find something to do...

The backyard of Guiyun Building is a three-entry courtyard. Zhang Zhishan, the former owner, lived here for decades, repaired it and took care of it diligently.The whole courtyard looks the same as the new one. The former dean is four feet wide and eight feet wide, directly connected to the main hall where the first entrance is located. On both sides of the main hall, there is a small hall and two side rooms on the left, a miscellaneous room and two side rooms on the right; The entrance is the main room where the master lives, and there are two wing rooms on the left and right, a study room and a small hall; and the last entrance is used for the residence of the female relatives and in-laws, all of which are used for residence.

Ever since Du Tao and Liu Yuxuan took Ouyang Yu's adoptive mother's family here, the hospital was no longer deserted, but in the past month, after learning that Ouyang was seriously injured and taken away for treatment by an old man, everyone was depressed. Even if Erlang, who took office in the Di Mansion, brought his two lovely children, it was just a moment of hilarity.Whenever there are three meals a day, the old lady always leaves a pair of bowls and chopsticks and an empty chair for Ouyang Yu on the table.Looking forward to the day when her adopted son will come in with a smile and call her "mother".

At this time, the sun was setting in the west, and the residual light reflected on the wooden door of the main hall.

In the main hall, the three pots of charcoal fire were "crackling" and burning vigorously, but the people sitting in this hall were full of worried faces.

The old lady on the main seat glanced at the crowd and said: "Don't worry, my son Ouyang is a true hero, he will be blessed by the Bodhisattva, and he will return sooner or later, you don't have to act like this."

Everyone forced a smile, and the atmosphere warmed up a little.

"Huh~" A cold wind whistling came from the hall door, and the door opened and Qin Feng came in mixed with wildly flying snowflakes.

He walked up to the old lady in a few quick steps, and bowed respectfully: "Auntie is well, my nephew Qin Feng came to ask about my brother." After speaking, he stood aside, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, and remained silent.

Ge Ye secretly sighed in his heart, since the seventh day after Ouyang Yu left, this white-clothed Qin Feng has often come here to inquire about Ouyang Yu's whereabouts.It was even more like this every day when I learned that Ouyang was injured, and it never stopped.What is strange is that he is only respectful to Ouyang's mother-in-law Li Wang, but he is reticent and indifferent to the rest of the people.

"Brother Qin, there is still no news. You really don't have to do this every day, he will definitely come back!" Ge Ye got up to answer, he didn't want this man to come every day, he was afraid that the old lady would be more worried.

Qin Feng frowned, narrowed his eyes, and said as if thinking about it: "I want a horse!"

Everyone's eyes widened, not understanding what he was doing.The old lady sighed, got up and said: "Ge Ye, you are also my brother, so I will see you. The matter of the horse is on you, please be a good horse!" Before Ge Ye could answer, she turned around and said, "Wu Lang, will you be a good horse?" Get some sets of winter clothes, Yunniang, go to my room and get 30 taels of silver, Qilang, quickly order the kitchen to make some crispy biscuits, add some sauced beef, and give it to Qin Xiaolang!"

After the old lady's order, everyone gradually understood that this Qin Feng was going to look for Ouyang Yu along the way, and they couldn't help being surprised!

"Mom, I'm going too!"

"Mom, there's a baby!"

"Auntie, I'll go too!"

After everyone reacted, Goro Qiro, Ge Ye and the three old subordinates all got up and asked for orders, as if they were on the spot.

The old lady's heart warmed up, his adoptive son Ouyang Yu was so popular that he had only stayed in the huge Jinyang City for a few days?Get a lot of fame and popularity.She couldn't help feeling comforted by Lao Huai, shook her head slightly, and was about to speak, but she didn't want to lift the curtain of the main hall again, but Du Tao and Liu Yuxuan, who had brought their family here, walked in with a smile.

"Auntie, little brother Ouyang has saved our lives, and I will go too!" The two of them heard the conversation outside the door, and they came in to ask for help with a feeling of excitement.

The old lady added a bit of pride on her face, and said: "You are all my son's true brothers, but this matter must not be like this, if my son knows that the old woman arranged for this group of people to look for him, maybe I feel weak His name, huh, huh, there's no need to go, just Qin Xiaolang, I still have a bit of eyesight as a bad old woman, don't worry everyone!"

Qin Feng stood aside and listened to the old lady's arrangements, a bit of warmth appeared on his cold face, and there was a bit of tenderness in his eyes.

"Thank you, Auntie!" Qin Feng responded immediately without waiting for the others to beg.With this opening, he said that the matter was set in stone and could not be changed.

......The night was getting dark, and the snow was filling the air. One man and one horse galloped on the official road outside Jinyang City.The man was dressed in white, and the horse was blood-red. Like an arrow, the man and the horse disappeared from sight in an instant...
