Chapter 218 Preserved egg lean meat porridge (2)

  Looking at Xunzhou who was thinking about going to court before doing anything, the guard fell silent, and said after a long while: "Do things first!"

  This younger sister Mingtang, who had been talking about coming to see him at the beginning, just came to eat a court meal, Mr. Xun, after eating this meal, his sister Mingtang became a incidental.

  …

  …

   Of course, no matter what, after a bowl of porridge, it's time to work!

  After the Double Ninth Festival, the sky is getting colder.

  East Market is still lively, with pedestrians and vendors coming and going in an endless stream, and the sound of hawking can be heard endlessly. The guard in cloth robes and micro-clothes mingling in the crowd quickly caught a man passing by quickly, and just before the man opened his mouth to shout, he skillfully reached out from his sleeve pockets and took out four or five pieces of different materials and colors. Same purse.

  Facing the man's sudden change of expression, the guard didn't talk nonsense, picked out his own one, grinned at him, and said, "What's the matter? You started earning money early in the morning to prepare for the New Year?"

  The upright man who was caught had an embarrassing face, but he didn't forget to ask for mercy: "Next time... next time, I won't dare again!"

  Of course the guards wouldn’t believe such words: This thief is so agile, he must be a ghost if he is not a habitual thief!

  The servant of Weifu on the other side touched his nose, and said: "I think he is not the only one, there are quite a few people stealing money bags among the crowd, look for it later!"

  The voices of several people are not loud, and they are not eye-catching in the noisy crowd. But if someone has been paying attention to these few people since they entered the East City, they will listen to the words they said without falling into their ears.

  Not far away, there was a pile of porcelain bowls on the corner of the street, and the vendor who was selling them said in a low voice to his partner collecting money: "Those guys are here to catch thieves, so don't pay too much attention!"

  The partner beside him nodded, and turned his gaze to a group of people who were setting up stalls at the corner of the street not far away. This row of square-sized stalls was not only small, but also somewhat shabby.

  Looking from a distance, on the banners set up on the small stalls, there are not all kinds of fortune-telling "high-level people", or poor scholars who hang a few calligraphy and paintings and sell them.

  The vendors did not look at the Taoist priests who were waiting for fortune-telling, but instead set their eyes on the scholars who peddled calligraphy and paintings. Although he was wearing a patched robe, among the deceptively deceptive Taoist priests, he was actually somewhat refined.

  The handsome scholar in the farthest corner is even more eye-catching.

"That's a good student!" The partner saw the scholar at a glance and nodded, but even though he was nodding, he looked at the scholar with some indescribable scrutiny in his eyes, "Look at the new face, new here? "

The vendor selling porcelain bowls at the side nodded, while being wary of the people around him, he whispered: "New here! I just went to inquire about it, and I heard that something happened at home, and I went to Beijing to join relatives. You I also know how many relatives in this world are willing to be good people? Naturally, they ignored him and kicked him out! He couldn't help it, so he took the little money left and set up a booth here to sell calligraphy and paintings !"

  The vendor heard this, nodded and said: "It's not bad! Let's see it again!"

  Although he didn't say what he was looking for, the porcelain bowl vendor obviously understood what he meant, and immediately said, "Don't worry, I'll save it!"

His partner let out a "hmm", and his eyes moved away from the scholar, and then fell on the guard in micro-clothes who was catching thieves in the crowd. After watching for a while, he suddenly laughed: "I heard that the government is still there these days. Looking for the villain who captured the little lady!"

   "Isn't it?" The merchant who sold porcelain bowls answered, his tone was a little more mocking and disdainful, "I heard that the families of those little ladies have gone to the government to make trouble several times!"

"What a bunch of idiots!" The peddler sneered, and his eyes fell on the scholar not far away, as if he was looking at some fat sheep, "just as the government's eyes fall on this, let's find some more bait! "

  Probably aware of this gaze, the scholar was agitated, instinctively raised his head and looked over here, glanced here blankly, and the scholar, who was not aware of anything, lowered his head again and continued to draw.

  The eyes of the two vendors turned elsewhere.

   Naturally, the more bait the better!

  On the three-story teahouse not far away, Lin Fei, who was looking over here with clairvoyance, said, "The two vendors selling porcelain bowls on the street corner also looked at our bait."

   Wei Fu, who was holding a pen by the table behind him, immediately wrote it down on paper.

  Xun Zhou, who was drawing with a brush, sneezed and rubbed his nose: It's really flattering to be missed by so many people!

  …

  …

  Si time the bell rang, and the time for the eclipse was over.

  After handing over the chores of cleaning the countertops to the handyman, Wen Mingtang and the others went to the corridor in the courtyard and sat down to rest.

"I don't know how long it will take to catch those gangsters with Mr. Xun's help!" As soon as she sat down, Tangyuan couldn't help feeling emotional, "Now I have to go out every morning and go back every night with Dad, Dad I also said that if I enter Dali Temple during the day, I will not be allowed to go out!"

This is the case for everyone in the city who has a young lady at home. Climbing to the heights in Chongyang yesterday should have been a good day for the whole family to go out and play, but because of these things, many young ladies were left at home by their families. Those who travel are also closely watched by the people around them. The feeling of being shackled is not uncomfortably uncomfortable.

  The bustling capital city at the foot of the Son of Heaven should not be like this.

  Wen Mingtang fixed his eyes, sighed, and said, "Those villains should have been caught earlier!"

  The little ladies who have not been caught are still so frightened and worried, how terrified are the little girls who were caught?

  …

  …

  In a dark room.

  Several young ladies with their hands and feet **** snuggled together in panic.

  One of the pair was originally sisters, and they leaned closer to each other, as if leaning on each other and feeling the warmth from each other could dispel the panic in their hearts.

"Ah...elder sister," the little lady in the pink skirt combed her bun, but she was caught by the age of cardamom. She was two years older than herself, and she was already a grown-up in her heart. Sister, asked, "What are they going to do to bring us here?"

  Before they were caught, the most fearful thing that a girl in the age of cardamom encountered was nothing more than sneaking out to play and being scolded by her parents. When did she encounter such a thing?

  She didn't know why she happily came out to watch the lanterns with her family, but she was brought here in a daze.

The elder sister who was just a little older and wearing a green skirt is only two years older than her younger sister. Although she claims to be a mature adult, she is only fifteen years old, and she is still half ignorant. , she just shook her head in panic, looked around at the little girls who were also taken captive by the faint light of the candlestick on the wall, and murmured: "I... I don't know either!"
