Concubine's three acres of pastoral garden

Chapter 25 Misunderstanding
Xianglai just sat on the edge of the table, her right hand clamped the barrel of the pen like a chicken claw, and poked it deeply and shallowly.

The young host couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw her clumsy posture, but when he saw the words written by Xianglai, he had deep doubts in his eyes, and he slowly came to Xianglai to watch.

Chen Xianglai wrote simplified Chinese characters, and the font style is very different from the characters of this era.

However, the young man's house is very deep, even though he felt strange, he didn't ask aloud.

He looked behind Xianglai for a while, and saw that she was struggling too much, so he rummaged through the pen holder again, found a small regular script pen with a short front and a wolf's hair, dipped the ink in it, and handed it to Xianglai, saying: : "Try this, use the pen vertically, and relax your wrist, otherwise you will be too tired."

After Xianglai took the pen and tried it according to what he said, it felt much smoother than before. She raised her head and smiled: "Thank you, this is very good."

The man returned her kind smile.

In this way, Chen Xianglai used her crappy brush to write silently, and whenever she encountered the names of ancient books, she tried to omit them as much as possible, so as not to be questioned again.If she encounters something she can't remember clearly, she can express it in as smooth a sentence as possible, or even some content that she can't remember at all, and she will replace it with the agricultural knowledge she knew in her previous life.

The original book had tens of thousands of words, but after she made such changes, the number of words had to be much higher, and it was impossible to finish it in a short time.

Unknowingly, the sky had already turned dark, and the young owner saw that the light in the house was dim and ordered someone to come over with a lamp.

Xianglai, who was only thinking about writing a book in exchange for rice seeds, realized that it was already night. She raised her head suddenly, thinking that she had made an appointment with Shen Dachang at the market, and she didn't know what he would be like if she didn't come back.

The young host stayed with her all the time in the house, and when he was bored waiting, he took a book and sat across from him to read. Seeing that she suddenly stopped writing, he looked shocked again, and asked, "What's the matter, but what's wrong?" ?”

Xianglai said embarrassingly: "I, I forgot that someone was waiting for me at the market. It seems that the market has left early. I don't know how anxious he will be if he doesn't see me back."

As he spoke, he put the pen on the pen holder, and said, "No, I have to go find him. If he doesn't see me, he must think something happened to me!"

The young host put down the book in his hand and said, "Oh, then I will accompany you to find him."

Xianglai was slightly stunned, and said: "How good is this? It's too troublesome. Don't worry, I will come back and finish the book. After all, I haven't got the rice yet!"

The young host smiled and said: "I'm not afraid that you won't come back, I just want to go for a walk, it's fine."

Then he stood up and went out of the house with Xianglai, saying: "Which market is he in? I know the way, it will be closer."

Xiang Lai said: "I don't know the name of the market, it's the one not far from the North City Gate."

The young owner said: "I know, come with me."

As he spoke, he took a big step and left first.

Xiang Lai followed behind at a half-trot.

While walking, the man looked back at Xianglai strangely, and said, "By the way, why don't you take off your hat in the room, isn't it hot?"

Of course, Xianglai did this because she was worried that her soft hair would reveal her identity as a girl. Seeing him asking at this time, she could only laugh dryly and lied: "Uh, I don't feel hot, so I didn't think about it."

The young master didn't think much about it, and said again: "By the way, what's your name? Where do you live? You should be a scholar with this kind of talent, how can you..."

He didn't say the second half of the sentence, but Xianglai could understand that he wanted to say how he got to this point, smiled, and said: "My name is Shen... Tianlai, my home is by the Songhua River, my father is not What kind of scholar is just lucky enough to marry my mother, it is better if my mother is born, she taught me how to read and write."

The young host's family sensed that there seemed to be something hidden in her words, so they stopped asking politely, and said, "Oh, brother Shen, my name is Yu Zixi, my family is in the east, and I came here all the way to make a living. If you don't mind, call me Big Brother Yu, and you can stay with me when you come to Songning Mansion in the future."

"Oh, yes, Brother Yu."

Chen Xianglai responded casually, and didn't take it to heart, only thinking that after getting the rice seeds, he would go home to farm, and when we meet again, he would also sell rice, and become a competitor. It is not necessary to speak so calmly.

Under the leadership of Yu Zixi, she soon came to Dachang's fish market. The people in the market had dispersed, leaving only a few passers-by. Ask passers-by and no one knows.

Yu Zixi took her to the opposite shop to inquire. Some people really noticed Dachang, saying that he stood until Sanji, and then drove the oxen to the plow and went west with the big cloth bag.

The west was the direction where Xianglai left. She knew that Dachang must be waiting for her not to come back, and went out to find herself.

She anxiously said: "What can I do, he is straight-minded, he will never find me, maybe he will find me all night!"

Xianglai didn't see Dachang's impatience, Yu Zixi thought for a while and said: "It's okay, let's go back to my shop first, tell the guys what he looks like, I'll ask the guys to help find him."

Looking at the cold long street, Xianglai thought: There is no other way now, and I can only trouble others first, otherwise Dachang will never be found, and he will go home early to report to his mother and second aunt that he is lost. Second Aunt, don't be mad.

So she and Yu Zixi went back to Maosheng grocery store together.It just so happened that the grocery store was also closed, and the shopkeeper who lived in Songning City was about to go home, and the guys who lived in the shop were opening the shutters. Yu Zixi called them together, and asked Xianglai to describe Shen Dachang's appearance. After reading it again, they sent everyone out to look for it.

Xianglai also wanted to go out, but Yu Zixi worried that she was not familiar with the place where she lived, and it would be more troublesome if she got lost, so she asked her to wait in the store while writing a book, saying that the guys would definitely find Shen Dachang back.

Xiang Lai thinks about it too, if he goes out alone, this ignorant person will definitely get lost, if he finds someone to accompany him, it means that there are no more people, so why not hurry up and write a book during this time, otherwise, can you get lost in the dark tomorrow? After writing, say two.

The guys all went out to look for Shen Dachang, there was no one cooking in the grocery store, so Yu Zixi waited with Xianglai hungry.

It wasn't until the first update of Tianjiao that the guys came back one after another, but no one brought back news of Shen Dachang.

Xianglai was restless, afraid that something might happen to Dachang in order to find him, so he tried to find him again.

This time Yu Zixi didn't stop her, but let her go after eating.

Xianglai looked at the rice that the guys had just served, thinking that it was freezing outside, and she would really have no strength if she didn't eat enough, so she sat at the table with Yu Zixi.

Yu Zixi looked at the hat on her head again, and said, "Why, you don't plan to take it off for dinner?"
