Chapter 22 (1/2)
[there are people coming and going in Wu's car company, and the inquiry of goods is very busy. The business is booming.
Chu Yuan looked at the sign from a distance across the street. He was about to go in, but he was stopped by Duan Baiyue, so he didn't understand: ”what's wrong?”
”Since I've become a peddler, I have to rely on my natural bearing.” Duan Baiyue reminded, ”walking up so dignified, it is incompatible with the appearance.”
Chuyuan stopped and asked, ”how do you go?”
Duan Baiyue said: ”just like the common people on this street.”
Chu Yuan:.... ”
He did not feel that he was different from the common people when they walked.
Duan Baiyue smiles and shakes his head, and slightly presses down his straight back: ”it's like this, or it's OK to bend down some more.”
Chu Yuan doubts: ”so simple?”
Duan Baiyue nods and goes with him into Wu's car company.
The guys are busy. When they see two strangers, they have no time to greet them. They can only shout from a distance, so that the guests can look around first and come here when they are free.
”No harm.” Duan Baiyue said, ”little brother, just be busy, we are only free, so come and have a look.”
The carriages were lined up in the backyard, and there were many styles. After that, there were new samples of tables and chairs. When they tried to go further, they were stopped by the servants, saying that the back was the private house of boss Wu. They refused to enter.
Duan Baiyue apologized, and the two strolled around the shop in front of them. They just got out of the garage and walked slowly along the street.
”What do you find?” Chu Yuan asked.
”Nothing has been found.” Answer by Duan Baiyue. This is strange. The main business of the company is all kinds of carriages, and also sells some tables, chairs and benches. Besides, there is nothing else. I really don't see what the wooden boxes are used for.
”According to the villagers of Qiufeng village, tomorrow there will be people from the car company to collect goods from him.” Chu Yuan said, ”at least you can follow and see where those wooden boxes were finally sent.”
Duan Baiyue nodded: ”good.”
”Let's go.” Chu Yuan said, ”back to the post house.”
”If you are found in the daytime, how can you do it?” Duan Baiyue shook his head, ”go back at night.”
”What are you going to do now?” Chu Yuan asked.
”I haven't had a meal since I've been out for so long.” Duan Baiyue stretched out his hand and said, ”there's a restaurant right now. I'll go back when I'm full.”
Chu Yuan frowned.
”Let's go.” Duan Baiyue can't help but say, pulling people up the stairs. The second came to greet him warmly. Chu Yuan did not say much. He took the dish and looked at it for a long time. He ordered a green vegetable soup and a bowl of fermented tofu.
Duan Baiyue said casually: ”Babao tender duck, drunken beef, dry roast pig's feet, sea cucumber balls, braised lamb leg in brown, bag fish.”
As he promised, he reminded him, ”are you two masters? I'm afraid it's a little too much. ”
When someone at the next table heard it, it was hard to avoid looking at it. Chu Yuan suddenly had a feeling of being a bucket in his back.
This time, not only was the face uncomfortable, but also the whole body began to prick.
Duan Baiyue handed him a cup of tea: ”fried with grain, it is different from tea, but also has a unique flavor.”
Chuyuan tasted it, full of barley aroma.
”Still like it?” Asked Duan Baiyue.
Chu Yuan nodded: ”some sweet.”
”I'll tell you, don't always eat in the post house on weekdays.” Duan Baiyue said, ”the world knows that the emperor is industrious and thrifty. Local officials even want to make you more fish and bowls of meat, they have to worry about whether they will lose their heads.”
Chu Yuan shakes his head: ”if you exaggerate it again, I will not be honest, diligent and thrifty, but my brain will be out of order.”
Duan Baiyue laughed and whispered, ”I still call myself outside?”
Chuyuan paused and said, ”I.”
Duan Baiyue smiles more and more heartily, and asks the waiter to bring the flower leaf tea, also has a taste of fresh.
The dishes were quickly served, and the table was set up in a steaming array of dishes. Seeing that he seemed to have a good appetite, Chu Yuan did not urge him to eat slowly with him. Naturally, some people would come to see him from time to time, but it would be OK to see him a few more times. He changed his face and was not ashamed to be regarded as a bucket of rice.
Duan Baiyue asked, ”why is your appetite so bad today?”
Chu Yuan raised his head and said, ”eh?”
”That duck leg tossed and turned in your bowl, at least a dozen times.” Duan Baiyue reminds me.
Chu Yuan:.... ”
He really can't eat it.
Duan Baiyue stretched out his chopsticks and put the duck's leg into his own bowl, and brought him a light bamboo fungus soup.
Chu Yuan wanted to stop talking. He had already bitten.
But Duan Baiyue obviously doesn't care. She nibbles at it by herself and catches a large piece of beef.
Chu Yuan couldn't bear to think.
According to this amount of food, he didn't eat a full meal when he was in the post house a few days ago.
When the meal was over, it was dark outside. Duan Baiyue put down her tea cup and lamented that this was called eating. She had no water in the post house before. At most, she was satisfied.Chu Yuan said, ”can we go back?”
Duan Baiyue looked out of the window, Yanshui river twists and turns, the scenery on both sides is quite good.
Chu Yuan had already got up and went downstairs.
Duan Baiyue felt sorry and had to keep up with her later. She said that if she had an opportunity, she would surely enjoy the scenery and blow the wind together.
But Chu Yuan didn't want to think about anything else. He stepped up his steps all the way back to the post station. After entering the gate, he let Sixi cook hot water.
Si Xi's father-in-law hurriedly orders to go down, and looks at Duan Baiyue with inquiring eyes. What's the matter with the emperor? He has to take a bath when he comes back.
Duan Baiyue finally realized something strange: ”what's the matter?”
”The mask is too stuffy.” Chu Yuan road.
”I'll help you.” Duan Baiyue reached for his ear and tore the mask off.
Chu Yuan low voice pain call, face has been covered with red dots, looking at itching.
”Ouch Four Xi father-in-law is frightened. How can this happen.
”Why didn't you tell me earlier.” Duan Baiyue is also scared, let him sit on the chair, and light the light.
Chu Yuan heart said, look at your posture just now, unknowingly also at that time hungry for more than ten days, not easy to catch a meal. It's better not to disturb.
Duan Baiyue was distressed and annoyed. He first dipped his face in warm water and wiped his face gently. Then he applied medicine: ”is it still painful?”
”It never hurts.” Chu Yuan way, ”some itch just.”
”I didn't think about it before.” Duan Baiyue put his broken hair together. In Xu's house, people sneeze when the dust gets bigger. What's more, the whole face is covered with drugs. Fortunately, it's only half a day, otherwise I'm afraid it will be more serious.
His face was cold and cold. He didn't feel the itch just now when he was in the restaurant. He didn't feel uncomfortable. Chu Yuan looked at Duan Bai Yue's face close at hand and said calmly: ”look at your expression, as if to disfigure.”
”Nonsense.” ”Don't worry, at most tomorrow morning will be good.”
Chu Yuan said, ”well.”
Duan Baiyue continued to examine carefully, and found that it was not a big problem. Moreover, after taking the medicine, those red spots had retreated a lot, and then she was relieved.
Chu Yuan looked at him in a funny way.
”And laugh.” Duan Baiyue sat beside him, ”I won't take you to play like this next time.”
”But tomorrow, people from the car company will go to Qiushui village to pull goods.” Chu Yuan road.
”I'll just go.” Duan Baiyue said, ”you wait for news in the post house.”
”The emperor.” Four Xi father-in-law again in the outside way, ”can want to pass the imperial doctor?”
”No need.” Chu Yuan road.
Four Xi father-in-law is very worried, really do not have to, otherwise still have a look.
”Don't worry, father-in-law.” Duan Baiyue opened the door, ”this king will take care of the emperor of Chu.”
Four Xi father-in-law had to nod, bitter face continued to sigh in the heart.
Outsiders say that the southwest government is full of poison. Now it seems to be true.
No matter how you can change your appearance, you can easily make the emperor blush.
In the room, Duan Baiyue looks at Chu Yuan to rest, then sits by the bed and extinguishes a candle.
Chu Yuan asked, ”won't King Duan go next door?”
”I'll watch you.” Duan Baiyue covers the quilt for him, ”if there is any pain, please tell me.”
”You look down upon me too weakly.” Chuyuan is funny.
Duan Baiyue thought to herself, it's not that she is weak.
But want to return to think, obviously can't say, then way: ”sleep.”
Chu Yuan couldn't resist him. He wanted to lean against the wall, but he was pressed down: ”there's medicine on your face. Don't move around. Just sleep like this.”
