Chapter 93

Mao Qiusheng looked at Su Xiaoyue who was so indifferent for a while, and suddenly felt that this kind of Su Xiaoyue was her nature, indifferent and polite, with a little alienation, even what she said seemed true and false, elusive.Even if she took the initiative to strike up a conversation, even if she changed ways to get close to him, but she was still a mystery to him, difficult to get close to.

"My lord! I always feel that this woman surnamed Su looks extraordinary!" Liu Bing spoke.

"Yes! Siyi thinks so too!" Siyi nodded in agreement, "Her temper doesn't seem to be very good, she can be hot and cold from time to time. And when she said that just now, she was a bit like a goblin, which made the hairs all over my body stand on end. Get up!"

Mao Qiusheng frowned lightly, and turned his head to look at Su Xiaoyue who was quietly leaning against the door. Although she was dressed in linen and her long hair was simply tied on her head without any hair accessories, the elegance revealed all over her body would be She looks very noble, but there is a bit of laziness in the nobility.

Mao Shisheng suddenly felt that this Su Xiaoyue didn't look like an ordinary peasant girl, her demeanor was incomparable even to those ladies! "Taking advantage of the early morning coolness to hurry up is the right thing to do!" Mao Qiusheng didn't comment on what the two bookboys said, and stood up, "Siyi, go and pay the bill!"

"Hey, Fourteenth Moth, do you think that girl standing at the door just now is the person we are looking for?" Thirteenth Moth turned his elbow on the crutch and was just taking it easy.

"How would I know!" Fourteen Moth stuffed a mouthful of steamed buns in his mouth and said while chewing, "Besides, didn't you see that she was with those three men? You have to remember, what we are looking for is Single woman or man!"

"Eat! You know how to eat!" Thirteen Moth stared at Fourteenth Moth bitterly, "Didn't you hear what they said just now?"

"What did they say?"

"I'm too lazy to tell you! Anyway, I think that woman might be the person we're looking for!" Thirteen Moth didn't even have the heart to stare at Fourteenth Moth, and turned to look at the carriage where the four disappeared. , "We have to go back and report to Master Hei Die to be serious!"

"As long as you think it's true, report it. I don't know how many such news Mr. Heidi will receive!" Fourteen Moth was dissatisfied, "Besides, you see that woman looks poor, although she looks better than ordinary peasant girls It’s a little bit, but she can even say that kind of vulgar words just now, and she is hooked up with a man, how can she be the mother of a country?”

"That's right!" Thirteen Moth recalled the scene just now, and thought Fourteen Moth was right, "Then let's look for it again!"

Cangyao is located in the southeast of the country of Feiya, close to the country of Li, or it can be said that it is only across the country of Li - the Cang River.Natural resources are abundant, the rivers are beautiful, the bell is beautiful, and the people are outstanding. Many literati will come here to travel and write lyrics and songs.

These are just what Du Xiaoyue saw in the book. After entering the territory of Cangyao, Du Xiaoyue saw a different scene: the fields were dry, the cracked surface had become dusty, and even the weeds had long since withered and turned yellow. Dry and shriveled; the pedestrians on the road were all yellow and thin, their lips were split, and their eyes were as dull as dead ashes.

"Cheng En, is it true that there is no source of water in Cangyao?" After entering the territory of Cangyao, Du Xiaoyue suggested traveling on the grounds that her whole body was knocked apart in a carriage. She thought Mao Qiusheng would not I agree, but I don't want him to agree.

"I don't know either! When I received a letter from my family last month, the situation my father described was not as serious as it is now. He said that there is still water in the city." Mao Qiusheng sighed lightly, and stepped heavily on the field. Birth him and raise him and the land, muttering in a low voice, "I haven't been back for two years, I don't want my hometown to look like this! Fortunately I'm back, otherwise..."

"Is there still water in the city?" Du Xiaoyue frowned lightly, "Could it be that there is no water outside the city? Siyi, can I ask you a favor? Go ask passers-by and ask them about drinking water."

"Yes!" After entering Cangyao and looking at Cangyao like this, Siyi was no longer in the mood to catch Su Xiaoyue.

"Xiaoyue, are you very concerned about the drought here?" Mao Qiu asked like a fairy flying out of the sky, but there was no trace of doubt in his calm eyes.

"Looking at such a scene, even a stone will feel pity!" Du Xiaoyue replied evasively. When she raised her head and wiped her sweat with a handkerchief, she saw a pavilion ten steps ahead, "Cheng'en, there is a pavilion there." Why don't you go sit down!" After walking for a long time, my feet may have blisters!

"I'm afraid not!" Seeing Du Xiaoyue's face was flushed red, Mao Qiusheng wanted to agree, but thinking that his family was still waiting for him at the city gate, he turned his face away and said ruthlessly, "Before closing the city gate today, we must Get to the city, otherwise you won’t be able to enter the city.”

"That's it!" Du Xiaoyue thought for a while, looked at the sun that was about to set in the west, "Then go to the city! I have to find an inn!"

Mao Qiusheng was taken aback, remembering that she said that after arriving in Cangyao, she would go to find relatives by herself, but now he didn't want her to leave so soon! "Xiaoyue, how about this, before you find your relative's house, you can live in my house - you are not familiar with Cangyao here, besides, the pawn shop is closed at this moment, there is no money, How do you go to stay in a hotel? Do you pay a high price to stay in a hotel again?" Mao Qiusheng tried hard to think of words.

Yes!Why didn't I think of this problem?Du Xiaoyue patted her forehead lightly: "It's just that if I live in your house, will it trouble your family members? Also, will your family members treat me differently?" A strange woman lived in a man's house , in this feudal era, I'm afraid it will attract strange eyes from others!

Mao Qiusheng was taken aback, he really hadn't thought of this, if he brought her home by himself, I'm afraid it would cause a lot of trouble!
"Hehe, that's why, I'd better go to the inn! Well, how about this, after I find the inn, I will notify you, so that you can find me too!" The contact with Mao Qiusheng cannot be broken, otherwise There is no point in coming to Cangyao by myself.

"Cheng En! Cheng En, you are finally back!" The excited soprano rushed forward quickly, and in the next second, the hostess of the voice had already thrown herself on Mao Qiusheng, "Woo...I miss you so much!"

"Uh...mother!" Mao Qiusheng pushed away the lord mother who was hanging on him unnaturally, "Why did mother come here? Didn't you agree to wait at the city gate?"

"Stinky boy, mother waited from noon to Shen time, and she couldn't wait any longer, so she came here, but you were talking and laughing with a girl here..." Mother Mao patted Mao Qiusheng's shoulder with her hands, her face full of blame.

"Uh..." Du Xiaoyue had already been frightened by this unexpected relative meeting, and looking at this beautiful woman, if she didn't mention that she was Mao Qiusheng's mother, Du Xiaoyue would definitely think that she was just his eldest sister.There was a large group of people coming along with Mrs. Mao, the leader was a man in his fifties, and Du Xiaoyue guessed that he was Mrs. Mao because of the high-quality clothes; while the rest were dressed plainly, they should be domestic servants. .

"Madam, Cheng En has already returned, so stop talking about him." Father Mao stepped forward to persuade him, then turned to look at Du Xiaoyue, "This girl is..."

"Oh, father, this is Miss Su Xiaoyue, who came to Cangyao from the capital to find relatives." Mao Qiusheng walked to Father Mao and introduced.

"My slave, Su Xiaoyue, has met Master Mao." Du Xiaoyue blessed.

"Looking for relatives?" Father Mao repeated softly, "Then how could Miss Su go the same way with Gouzi?"

"It's like this." Du Xiaoyue interrupted Mao Qiusheng who was talking, and straightened her voice, "Xiaoyue met Mr. Mao on the way, and happened to be on the same road. Mr. Mao saw that Xiaoyue was walking alone, so he invited Xiaoyue to take a ride with him. These days, thanks to Mr. Mao's care, otherwise Xiaoyue really doesn't know how to come to Cangyao City!"

As soon as Du Xiaoyue finished speaking, two cold snorts came from behind, and it was obvious that it belonged to Siyi and Liuc without any further explanation; looking at Mao Qiusheng again, he stared at Du Xiaoyue in a daze, apparently he didn't expect Du Xiaoyue to say it casually The words are so smooth!Du Xiaoyue guessed why Mao Qiusheng was surprised, winked at him, smiled slightly, and motioned for him to take over.

"Oh! That's it. Dad!" Mao Qiusheng took the words, and he was afraid that his conservative father would ask other questions, so he had to pull his mother, "Mother, Cheng En is a little tired after driving for a day, why don't you go home first?" !"

"Okay!" Mao's face was full of joy, and he took Mao Qiusheng's hand, "Master, let's go back, there is a wind-receiving wine at home, and we are going to wash Chengen off tonight!"

Father Mao didn't say much, but just gave Du Xiaoyue a cold look.

"Uh... Mother, Miss Su came to Cangyao for the first time, and she hasn't found any relatives yet, and Cangyao is in chaos now, why don't you let Miss Su live in the mansion?" Mao Qiusheng tested his mother.

"Yes!" Mao looked straight at Du Xiaoyue, and Du Xiaoyue didn't evade. After looking at each other for a while, Mao replied with a smile, let go of Mao Qiusheng's hand, took Du Xiaoyue's hand, and stopped there. Walking to the carriage next to her, she asked, "Where is Miss Su from?"

"Return to madam, madam can call me Xiaoyue!" Du Xiaoyue replied softly, "Xiaoyue is a native of the capital. Because of her family's decline and the death of her parents, Xiaoyue came to Cangyao to join her relatives as a last resort."

"Xiaoyue?! What a name!" Mrs. Mao has a good impression of this generous but polite Su Xiaoyue - there are not many women who can get close to that nerdy son in her family, and her son seems Still saying good things about Su Xiaoyue, it can be seen that this Su Xiaoyue is different in the eyes of her son, "Who is your relative? Tell auntie, auntie can send someone to help you find it!"

"How can Xiaoyue trouble Auntie?!" Du Xiaoyue declined, "Xiaoyue can find it by herself." Alas, where are the relatives from the family in Cangyao City!
