Chapter 869: Flying with You
Xiao Wu didn't get angry when Magistrate Liu greeted him if he had anything to say, so he leaned quietly on the soft cushions.
It wasn't until he couldn't speak anymore and left in a panic that Xiao Wu adjusted his posture and asked Shuyuan to send him out.
"Master, they are watching us so closely, why are you going out?"
Shuyuan looked at his master leisurely flipping through books and spoke worriedly.
These people are really annoying. It's enough to stare at them secretly. Now, eating three meals a day is simply disgusting.
Listening to Shuyuan's complaints, Xiao Wu curled his lips.
"Some people are worried, so they have to make sure I'm under their noses before they can be reassured. However, I think Liu Guangkuan's patience is about to run out. You can go out and buy some millet in a while, and make some porridge at night. It's light and easy to digest."
"Hey~, let's go right away."
Watching the book go away, Xiao Wu lowered his head and continued reading.
After today, Magistrate Liu may not be so diligent.
Sure enough, when Liu Guang and his family came to deliver dinner. A bowl of cooked millet porridge was already placed in front of Xiao Wu.
"You have worked hard these past two days, Mr. Liu. People who are sick have a light taste and like to drink some porridge that is easy to digest. Mr. Liu is busy with work and has to take care of me. I am really sorry."
"This morning, I asked Shuyuan to go buy some millet on the street and use the kitchen of Guanyi to cook some porridge. It was quite good to eat.
"If Mr. Liu is busy, you don't have to work hard to deliver food. If you come to my place to chat, I will welcome you very much, and there is no need to prepare food."
"How can this be done? How can I bother Mr. Zhizhou to cook in Guanyi? Besides, the food in Guanyi is rough..."
Before Liu Guangkuan could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Xiao Wu raising his hand.
"The difference between what Mr. Liu said is that before I won the top prize, I was a member of a poor family, and I was used to having simple meals every day. Whenever I feel unwell, my mother always cooks a bowl of millet porridge to nourish the spleen and stomach."
"Although the food delivered by Mr. Liu is exquisite, delicious and labor-intensive, I still feel that it is more comfortable to drink a bowl of millet porridge."
Listening to Xiao Wu's tone, Liu Guangkuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled,
"It turns out that Mr. Zhizhou misses his family. If you think about it, it can be understood. When people are weak and sick, they miss the care of their families the most. Anyway, Mr. Zhizhou likes millet porridge, and I will not force you to be a lower-ranking official. If you need anything, just send someone I will definitely cooperate with you."
After Liu Guangkuan finished speaking, he took the people away directly without disturbing him.
If it hadn't been for the arrangements from above, he wouldn't have been able to deliver three meals a day. Even my wife had never enjoyed his filial piety.
Now that people don't want to eat the food he sends, why are they rushing to pat their horses' hooves?
"Okay, I'm busy with official duties these days. You all should be more alert and protect the safety of Guanyi. Mr. Zhizhou doesn't like to disturb others, so don't go in and make yourself uncomfortable. Just keep it safe.
"Don't worry, adults. The young ones will definitely fulfill their mission."
Their job is to watch people. As long as people don't leave the hotel, they can do whatever they want. They really can't control this.
Shuyuan watched them go away and looked at his master with bright eyes.
"Master, are we clean?"
Seeing Shuyuan's excited expression, Xiao Wu shook his head.
"Liu Guangkuan is not coming, but the people guarding outside still haven't withdrawn. We still can't get out. Fortunately, they don't dare to rush into the hotel, so it's a kind of peace."
"Ah, I can't go out, what should I do?" The master wants to go out with his aunt to investigate. How can he investigate if he can't get out?
Seeing Shu Yuan's anxious look, Xiao Wu curled his lips. Shu Yuan had never been in contact with a secret guard, so naturally he didn't know the method.
Normally, he would ask Cheng Qian and Cheng Ye to do things, but never in front of him.
"Okay, stop scratching your head and prepare some clothes for me."
The black market opened at Haishi, so it would be a good time for them to rush there.
Xiao Wu stroked his bluestone-colored robe with deep eyes.
When Wenyou came in, she saw how he was dressed and nodded.
"This dress suits you very well."
The bluestone color is a very dark blue with dark patterns of the same color embroidered on it. The cuffs and collar are spliced with light blue and embroidered with green bamboo patterns. On the whole, not only does it not appear dull at all, but it shows a steady and self-sustaining attitude.
Her hair was tied up in a bun on top of her head, tied with only a ribbon, flowing behind her head.
"Sister Wen, do you think I look like a wealthy businessman?"
"I can't say whether you look like a wealthy businessman or not, but when you walk out like this, you look like a young man from a noble family. In short, you are the rich type."
Wenyou looked at him and praised him sincerely. Among the Bai family, he was the only one with outstanding temperament, most similar to Aunt Bai.
"Just look at the money."
In the black market, no one cares about family background or power. As long as the money is in place, anything is possible.
After the two of them had finished cleaning up, Xiao Wu arranged the interior of the hotel properly, and then he and Wen You came to the corner of the yard.
Wenyou jumped up and stood on the wall to check the situation around her. When she was sure that no one was around, she picked up Xiao Wu's collar and jumped up to the wall again.
In a few leaps, he was far away from Guanyi and settled in a remote alley.
As soon as he let go of his hand, Xiaowu covered his neck and started coughing. After a while, he straightened up.
Looking at Wenyou with resentful eyes,
"Sister Wen, can you please put me in a comfortable position for a while? Don't do it like that just now, it will cause you to die easily."
Seeing Xiao Wu's suppressed red face, Wenyou touched her nose innocently.
"good,"
Wait for him to catch his breath, Wen You walked over, grabbed his shoulder with one hand under Xiao Wu's instruction, jumped up again, and ran straight to the entrance of the black market.
Compared with being strangled by the neck just now, Xiao Wu has adapted well at this time, but the feeling of being suspended in the air still makes him uncomfortable, his stomach is churning, and he is a little dizzy.
Just when he felt uncomfortable in his throat, Sister Wen jumped into an alley,
landed on the ground with both feet, Xiao Wu held the wall, and many little stars flashed in front of his eyes.
After the dizziness disappeared, he looked at Wen You who was waiting beside him, his face a little embarrassed.
"Sister Wen, am I too weak?"
Seeing his calf trembling, Wen You rarely curled her lips and shook her head,
"You don't know Qinggong, the feeling of weightlessness is really uncomfortable."
"... I suggest that we walk back after the matter is done?"
"I have no objection."
Whether it can be realized is not up to her.
After entering the black market and coming out, there are always a few pairs of eyes staring at you, and there are people who specialize in eating this way.
"Let's go. We'll get there after we pass this alley."
The two turned out of the alley and walked on the street. They saw a bluestone tablet in the distance. There were two red lanterns hanging on it. Under the flickering candlelight, two big characters were reflected:
- Black Market.
In the dark night, two red lanterns suddenly appeared, swaying in the cold wind, which made it look a little more eerie, and gave people a sense of going to hell.
