Seeing a strange girl suddenly sitting opposite him, Zhong Ling raised his head in confusion and looked at the oval-faced girl in front of him, and said: "Sister, we have already sat down at this place, you can find another seat"
However, the oval-faced girl did not answer. She took the tableware brought by the waiter and unceremoniously picked up a plate of sweet and sour pork ribs on the table with her chopsticks and put it into her mouth. She chewed it with relish and said with a smile: "So much How can two people finish the food? Wouldn¡¯t it be a pity to waste it?¡±
Zhong Ling felt that the behavior of the girl who was similar to her own age and ignored others was very strange. However, seeing that Yan Shaoqing sitting beside him did not stop her, she did not say anything. She lowered her head and continued to eat, for fear that if she was slow, she would be eaten by others. ate up.
At this time, Yan Shaoqing carefully looked at the appearance of the oval-faced girl, and naturally knew in her heart that she was Tao'er who had resumed women's clothing. Her actions clearly showed that Yan Shaoqing still held a grudge against her last time when she stole her purse. A meal will inevitably feel like revenge.
In response to Yan Shaoqing's "confused" look, Tao'er decided to tease the other party. He couldn't help but feel elated in his heart and said: "You are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time"
"Eh? Girl, did you recognize the wrong person?" Yan Shaoqing's tone of surprise didn't seem to be false, but if you observe carefully, you will find that there is a hint of smile in his eyes.
Seeing that Yan Shaoqing did not recognize him, Tao'er felt even more proud and said: "Ha, how could I recognize the wrong person? Even if you turn into ashes, I will still recognize you"
Yan Shaoqing said: "This I'm sorry for my poor eyesight, but I really can't recognize the girl"
"Hey, your eyes are really badtake a closer look" Tao'er blinked her big watery eyes. Yan Shaoqing suppressed a smile and pretended to think: "Is this, could it be This girl is from Guizhou, has she ever come to my house to propose marriage?"
"Plop~" Zhong Ling noticed the smile in Yan Shaoqing's eyes. At that moment, she realized that Brother Yan was deliberately teasing the girl. He couldn't help but let out a sneer. He obviously understood that the two of them knew each other. He lowered his head and ate the food without saying a word. Entered theater mode.
When Tao'er heard this, she blushed and spat lightly, saying: "Sigh, you actually took advantage of me"
Yan Shaoqing said in a hurry: "No, no, I don't dare. I made a mistake. If someone as beautiful as the girl comes to propose marriage, I will definitely remember"
"Hee, you have a sweet mouth" Which woman doesn't like others to compliment her on her beauty? Just when Tao'er was proud of Yan Shaoqing's compliment and was about to continue talking, she accidentally caught a glimpse of Yan Shaoqing's teasing eyes across from her, and she understood everything in her heart. Somewhat angry, he said: "Hao, you are teasing me on purpose. You have already recognized me, haven't you?"
Yan Shaoqing looked at the table full of food in front of her with a smile and said, "How dare I tease the girl? But for this table of food, I would like to thank the girl for the hospitality"
Taoer felt happy when he heard this, picked up a chopstick and put it into his mouth, saying: "Hey, isn't it just a meal? A grown man is still fussy. Last time you stole my purse, I still haven't settled the account with you "
Yan Shaoqing said in surprise: "I think the girl remembered it wrong? How do I remember that my wallet was stolen?"
"You still said that!" Taoer threw the chopsticks in his hand towards Yan Shaoqing, stood up from the chair, pointed at Yan Shaoqing's nose and said: "Yan! You made me suffer that day! Do you know ?¡±
"I don't know. After the girl left that day, I didn't follow her" Yan Shaoqing leisurely dodged the flying chopsticks, then stretched out her hand: "Where are the things?"
Tao'er smiled angrily and said: "How dare you mention things You took all my money that day, and I didn't have any silver on me. Naturally, those things were pawned by me and used as a means of payment!" As he spoke, Tao'er observed Yan Shaoqing. She wanted to see the panic expression on his face, but unfortunately Yan Shaoqing did not do as she wanted. She still sat there calmly and drank comfortably. Taoer couldn't help but stamped her feet and said: "Hey! Aren't you worried?"
Yan Shaoqing put down her wine glass and said, "What am I worried about? You should be the one to worry about instead, right? Since the girl has sold the stolen goods, after this meal, the girl will go to the Yamen with me"
"Youdid anyone say that you are really bad!" Knowing that he had no way to deal with Yan Shaoqing, Naughty sat down again angrily and said: "Humph, don't be busy, I told you that I will leave it to you sooner or later, but, you You have to tell me where you are from first"
Yan Shaoqing put down the wine glass and said, "Yes, let me introduce you again. My surname is Yan, my courtesy name is Shaoqing I am from Guizhou. I wonder where Miss Tao'er is from?"
"Where is this girl?" Tao'er ignored Yan Shaoqing and turned to Zhong Ling.
Zhong Ling put down the chopsticks in his hand, took out a silk scarf and wiped his mouth, and said, "My name is Zhong Ling. My family lives in the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations not far outside Dali City. I heard from Brother Yan that Sister Taoer, you stole something."?? Why, my parents said it¡¯s wrong to steal people¡¯s things You¡¯d better return the things to Brother Yan"
Tao'er looked miserable and said: "Hey, sister Ling'er, in fact, my sister is also a miserable person. Do you think I am willing to live this kind of life of being scared every day and sneaking around? I have no parents since I was young, and I only have one brother. We depend on each other for life. Later, there was a war and plague in my hometown, so everyone had to flee, and my brother and I lost contact In order to look for my brother, I mixed up men's clothes to make it easier to hit the road, but I lacked money, so I had to commit theft. I was caught red-handed while stealing once. My martial arts skills were not as good as that person's. When I finally escaped, I was injured and escaped. On the way, Zhang Ren and Guo Da were rescued by the two of them. It turned out that they were also engaged in robbery and theft. Yes, in order to repay this kindness, I agreed to help them enter Ma Mansion to steal things" He glanced at Yan Shaoqing with a resentful look and said, "It's unlucky for me to run into you this time If I had known that Zhang Ren and Guo Da had been If you clean up, I won't bother going to Ma Mansion to steal things"
Yan Shaoqing smiled hoarsely and said, "Isn't this my fault?"
Tao'er's beautiful eyes turned and she cried: "It's your fault in the first place. I'm already so pitiful. That day you stole someone's purse and you didn't even have a place to live. They could only sleep in a ruined temple in the countryside. Do you know how many wild beasts pass by there at night? If a girl like me encounters Su Mei, it will be all your fault Wuwu"
Seeing Tao'er crying so sadly, Zhong Ling couldn't help but want to step forward to comfort her, but Yan Shaoqing stretched out her hand to hold her back. Yan Shaoqing said helplessly: "Hey, I'm afraid of you, so stop pretending Return the things to me and I will forget the past¡¡±
In Zhong Ling's astonished eyes, Tao'er raised his head. There were no tears on his face. Instead, he had a teasing expression. He glanced at Yan Shaoqing and said, "Hey, you look like a well-dressed scholar. Why are you so unsympathetic?" , I was crying so sadly just now, but you didn¡¯t even say a word of comfort. Your heart is made of stone"
Yan Shaoqing smiled and said: "If you are willing, you can cry for a while longer, and I promise to comfort you"
"I don't want to show you like a monkey show" Tao'er wrinkled his nose, took out a package and put it on the table and said: "Here, all the things I stole from Master Ma Wu's house are in it. Now here you are¡"
Yan Shaoqing opened the bag without looking at other valuable things. He directly picked up the Lu Yu Tea Book and said, "This is the Tea Book. You have made Master Ma Wu anxious"
Since we are going to develop in this world, the most important thing is money. Fortunately, in this world, as the son of a wealthy businessman in Guizhou, he has some wealth from the beginning. Ma Wude once said, who If he could retrieve the Lu Yu Tea Book for him, he would agree to do something within his own power. Therefore, Yan Shaoqing's plan was to use this opportunity to expand trade between Dali and Song Dynasty, thereby further controlling the economy
After putting away the things on the table, Yan Shaoqing called Zhong Ling, who was full, and the two stood up to leave. Taoer couldn't help but be startled when he saw this, then he realized and said: "Are you leaving now?"
Yan Shaoqing stopped and turned around and said, "What else can I do? Stay and even treat you to dinner?"
"II" When Yan Shaoqing said this, Tao'er's tone faltered and he hesitated for a moment. Knowing that it was useless to beat around the bush in front of Yan Shaoqing, he directly stated the main purpose of coming back and said: "I want to ask you for something. Things I don't care about all the hardships I have gone through to find my brother. I see that you are new to the world and don't know the dangers of the world. Why don't you go with me? Firstly, I can continue to look for my brother. Secondly, I don't have to fight for survival. If you want to steal again, I have more experience in the world than you, so I can help you a bit"
"" Yan Shaoqing looked at Tao'er in silence for a long time. It wasn't until Tao'er felt a little uncomfortable when Yan Shaoqing saw that she was about to shout out, that she suddenly said: "Ah~, I understand, what you mean, I I understand, you want to travel with me in the world, eat my food, wear my clothes, and use my food along the way. If you cause trouble, I will help you solve it. By the way, I will help you find your brother Do I understand you correctly? ?¡±
"Uhprobably, it seems likethat's it" It was a good thing that I originally thought, but after Yan Shaoqing said it, the taste changed. Tao'er couldn't help but blush no matter how thick her face was. She wanted to refute but she couldn't. Indisputable fact.
"I refuse" Yan Shaoqing smiled and directly rejected Tao'er's proposal. Before Tao'er could ask why, Yan Shaoqing said directly: "After all, there are differences between men and women. Going on the road together will not be good for the girl's reputation. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient? And¡what good do I get?¡±
¡®That¡¯s the point in the end, right? ¡¯ Tao¡¯er curled her lips with disdain, pointed at Zhong Ling and said, ¡°Then why can she follow you¡¡±
"She is different" Yan Shaoqing's words made Taoer feel uncomfortable looking at him.It became weird, while Zhong Ling's pretty face turned red and she was thinking in her heart, Yan Shaoqing smiled and said: "This time I just accompany Zhong Ling to go out to find her lightning ferret, and once I find it, I will send her home." , so she won¡¯t be with me for long"
When Zhong Ling heard this, his heart dropped, and then he stuck out his tongue playfully and said: "I just came out, I won't go back. I'm bored at home, but it's still fun outside. I want to follow you, Brother Yan, to travel around the world"
"Did you hear that?" Tao'er glanced at Yan Shaoqing provocatively. Yan Shaoqing ignored him directly. In response to Zhong Ling's uncooperation, he waved his folding fan helplessly and said, "It's not impossible for you to follow me, but you mentioned it. Should I mention your request as well, is this fair?"
Tao'er's eyes moved and said, "Come and listen"
Yan Shaoqing sat down on the chair again and said: "If you want to follow me, you must first agree. No matter what you do in the future, you must obey my command and you must not go against my will. I say one, you can't say two. I point east, you You can't go west. All the daily work of chopping wood and carrying water, washing and cooking, carrying lamps to guide the way, serving tea to welcome guests, making beds and folding quilts, warming beds and serving these are all done by you"
"Bang!" The more Tao'er listened, the uglier his face became. He couldn't help but feel the anger in his heart. He angrily pointed at Yan Shaoqing and said, "What!? You treat me as a maid!?"
"Are you dissatisfied? I'm all here according to your request. As my maid, you have food and drink. I can also help you stand up when others bully you. I can also help you find your brother. No one will gossip on the way. Gossip, it's like killing multiple birds with one stone" Seeing Tao'er's expression getting worse and worse, Yan Shaoqing smiled, pretending to sigh and said: "Okay, okay, who calls me a nice person? Then I'll suffer a little, take a step back. The last one is waived"
Taoer gritted his teeth and said, "Then I would also like to thank Mr. Yan for your kindness!"
"It's easy to talk about. I always like to help others" Hearing that Yan Shaoqing called himself 'my master', Zhong Ling smiled, and then said: "Um, Brother Yan Then I will follow you, do you want to be the master?" Your maid?"
When Tao'er heard this, she looked at Yan Shaoqing to see how he would answer. She saw Yan Shaoqing saying warmly to Zhong Ling: "Ling'er is so good, how can Brother Yan have the heart to let you be a maid? You even call me big brother, I recognize you." It¡¯s okay to have such a sister, let¡¯s not call her miss¡¡±
"Youhum!" This made Tao'er very angry. Seeing that Yan Shaoqing's attitude towards Zhong Ling was completely different from his own, Tao'er felt a bit sour in his heart. This was not because Tao'er fell in love with Yan Shaoqing, but a woman's thoughts It is the most elusive thing in the world. Every woman will be more or less interested in comparison when she is around the same sex. Taoer deeply resents Yan Shaoqing's favoritism in her heart, "(Wait until I find me) Brother, I have to let him teach you a lesson!)"
In fact, Yan Shaoqing did not intentionally bully Tao'er, but Tao'er is different from Zhong Ling. Zhong Ling has been protected by her parents since she was a child in the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations, and has developed a habit of relying on others. Let her follow Yan Shaoqing. As long as time goes by, She will naturally focus on Yan Shaoqing in everything. But Tao'er has been wandering around the world since she was a child, and her independence is stronger than Zhong Ling. It is not easy to make her obedient and be used by Yan Shaoqing. Therefore, before accepting Tao'er, Yan Shaoqing first has to do some 'training'
Thinking about the days when she would no longer be bored in the future, the corners of Yan Shaoqing's mouth curled up unconsciously. A hint of fun flashed through Tao'er's eyes from time to time, which made Tao'er shudder subconsciously, thinking about whether to try talking to Yan Shaoqing. A few days, if things don't go well, leave immediately But from the moment she agreed to Yan Shaoqing, she has no chance to escape from someone's clutches
