Queen of the Grass

Chapter 71

During dinner, three people sat around a small table. There were three plates on the table. One plate was filled with steamed buns, the other plate was filled with pickles, and the last one was a plate of potatoes. Pitiful.

Mei Yan'er sighed in her heart, but she still resigned herself to eating. She had eaten potatoes for three days. Although it was much better than eating without food, she couldn't just eat potatoes every day...

However, although there was a little dissatisfaction in her heart, she didn't show it at all, and she still ate deliciously. Who made that man look at her with guilt and regret every time he ate... ...Besides, she doesn't do anything but sell steamed buns every day, so she should be satisfied if she can eat this.

Dinner was soon over, Shi Mo cleaned up the dishes and helped Shi Che to rest, Mei Yan'er lay on the bed a little bored.

At this time before, she might still be having fun with some man, but now she can only go to bed and rest when it is dark, because she is not willing to buy wax money, and when it gets dark, she can’t see anything. This kind of life is really true. It's boring, but, she is not willing to leave, she thinks she should be able to leave the imperial city by relying on her disguise technique, and it is not difficult to get money, but she still did not leave, just stay here to live The poor life that made her feel bored...

Why is this?The answer isn't obvious, but it's not too difficult...

She really can't sleep. She has been thinking about everything she should think for a few days. Now she just feels empty in her head and can't think of anything. If this is the case, let's go for a walk...

The ground where they lived was a small house with no yard, only two rooms and a small kitchen. The front door was separated from one room, and the whole layout was very crowded.

As soon as Mei Yan'er walked out of her room, she ran into Shi Mo who also just walked out from the opposite side.

"What are you going to do?" Mei Yan'er asked first.

"Go mend Che'er's clothes, the room is too dark, and I'm planning to go out." Shi Che replied, his hoarse voice seemed to become even deeper in the darkness.

"I'm planning to go out too, let's go together."

"……OK."

The two walked out of the house one after the other, and sat on the steps in front of the house.

The outside was much brighter than the inside of the house, and Mei Yan'er also saw the clothes and needlework in Shi Mo's hands.

After Shi Mo finished the needle and thread, he skillfully mended the clothes, his broad palms looked very dexterous.

"Shi Mo, my clothes are torn too, can you mend them for me?" Mei Yan'er cut a hole in the clothes with her nails with her left hand where Shi Mo couldn't see.

"Oh, okay, where is it, you can get it." Shi Mo nodded and agreed, he was very happy to help her with something.

"Thank you." After saying that, Mei Yan'er took off her coat and handed it to Shi Mo.

Shi Mo was a little embarrassed. She didn't expect that she would take off her coat here, and turn her eyes away from looking at her body in unlined clothing.

Taking advantage of the light that has not yet completely darkened, Mei Yan'er saw Shi Mo's slightly red face, and couldn't help but feel happy in her heart.

The night at the beginning of September was a bit cold, especially when sitting outside wearing unlined clothes, I could feel the cool breeze, but Mei Yan'er had internal strength, so she didn't feel cold, but Shi Mo was a little worried, he put Shi Che Putting aside the clothes, Mei Yan'er patched them up, it was just a small hole, and it was sewn up in a few strokes.

"Here." Shi Mo handed over the clothes, his eyes were still a little wandering, he didn't dare to look at Mei Yan'er, in this day and age, men and women are different, he, an unmarried man, still has to avoid it after all.

Mei Yan'er took it, and her playful eyes became deeper, unusually bright in the dark.

This is the first time someone mended her clothes... Holding the clothes in her hand, Mei Yan'er couldn't help but think so.

In fact, sometimes people ignore many problems when they are moved. For example, how can she wear patched clothes like a dignified little prince? ...

After two more days of peaceful and ordinary days, troubles arose.

The man who was chased away by Mei Yan'er that day reappeared in the steamed bun shop with four stout women.

"It's her, she was the one who beat me that day, you arrest her quickly." Matchmaker Zhang pointed at Mei Yan'er and shouted, the women behind him didn't talk nonsense, they stepped forward to arrest Mei Yan'er, but Mei Yan'er nimbly dodged, and Shi Mo in the room also heard the voice, telling Shi Che not to come out, and ran out.

"Hey, woman, you'd better grab your hands and follow us obediently, or don't blame us for being rude." One of the four thick women said viciously, looking at Mei Yan'er as if she was watching dead.

"Hmph, if you're welcome, you're welcome. Who do you think is afraid of you? They're just running dogs who dare to yell in front of this girl." Well, it's finally here. She's been bored for four or five days, doing nothing every day. It made her feel a little embarrassed to eat, of course, that's all she thought about it, but she wasn't really embarrassed to eat.

"You, don't eat the toast and fine wine, sisters, the housekeeper said, you must take her back, do it!" The woman took the lead and rushed over after speaking, and the other three rushed over together.

Although Mei Yan'er's martial arts is not extremely powerful, but it is more than enough to deal with this kind of small fish and shrimp. A few roundabout kicks kicked all four women to the corner.

"Hmph, rubbish." Mei Yan'er clapped her hands, appreciating the four women's two-word comments.

Zhang Matchmaker's eyes widened and he couldn't believe that the people he brought were dealt with in just an instant. He wasted a lot of saliva to encourage Butler Deng to send them out.

"Why don't you get out, do you also want me to beat you up?" Mei Yan'er loosened her muscles and bones while talking, and there was a creaking sound all over her body, which scared Matchmaker Zhang back a few steps .

"You, you are amazing. Just wait, I don't believe that I can't cure you." Zhang Matchmaker put down the last sentence and ran away without looking back. The four women also struggled to stand up. , after glaring at Mei Yan'er viciously, he disappeared.

The neighbors who just hid and peeked because they were afraid of trouble also ran out, pointing and not knowing what they were talking about.

"Okay, it's okay, you can go on and make steamed buns." Mei Yan'er clapped her hands, and said to Shi Mo with a relaxed face.

Shi Mo moved his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak, and returned to the kitchen with a face full of worry.

After Shi Mo left, Mei Yan'er's disdainful expression darkened, and she looked at the direction where Matchmaker Zhang disappeared, showing a sneer.
