Farmer's Favorite

Zhuang Xinyan planned to bring all his belongings with him this time, so as not to go to Xingcheng and see what he wanted but not be able to pay for it.

The 100 taels of silver from selling the tiger had already been spent lavishly.

What I have now is 20 taels from selling the secret recipe of flower cakes and the income from the kitchen during this period. In addition to the scattered money for collecting eggs, there are probably more than ten taels of silver.

That is to say, when they go to Xingcheng this time, they will set off with 30 taels of silver on them.

The two of them didn't bring anything with them, except Zhuang Xinyan who carried a small bundle.

After closing the door of the house, they got into the carriage Yuan Yi had prepared for them when they arrived at the entrance of the village. Instead of passing through Kenshan Town, they headed directly in one direction, heading towards Xingcheng.

Traveling from the city to Xishan Village, it takes a day and a night to travel quickly.

Zhuang Xinyan could ride a horse, but all day and night he stayed in the carriage with Lin Qi and chatted casually, looking at the scenery outside.

Along the way, there are green mountains and green grass, flowing water and floating flowers, birds singing, mountains and quiet mountains, clouds and mist floating.

Even if it grows in a farmhouse, the scenery like this is extremely eye-catching.

Including Yuan Yi's people, there were about 30 people in the group, and they arrived at the gate of Xingcheng from early morning to noon the next day.

The tall city gate rises from the ground, with a magnificent momentum.

There are soldiers stationed in the city, that is, a group of people are piled up at the gate, and they are checking their identities before they can enter the city.

Taking advantage of Yuan Yi's convenience, the group walked to a nearby place and quickly entered the city gate.

Although it's not so crowded, the people at the city gate are cheering and shouting, and it's noisy, but it's very prosperous.

Before coming, Zhuang Xinyan didn't intend to work with Yuan Yi, he stepped forward and said: "We are here to buy some things, and I will trouble you to pick us up on the way back."

"It's easy to say, Siye Tower is on the east side. It used to be the inn where I stayed. Brother Zhuang went there to find me after he was busy, and he will return in five days." Yuan Yi said, but he didn't find it troublesome at all. From the bottom of his heart, he just wanted to show his kindness to Zhuang Xinyan.

After the two spoke, they took their leave and left.

Without purpose, Zhuang Xinyan held Lin Qi's hand and walked towards the crowded street.

Lin Qi looked around, his palms were a little sweaty, this place is really much better than Genshan Town.

When I came here, I didn't have much else to do except buy some things. To be honest, I just wanted to take Lin Qi out for a walk as a tourist.

So, the two of them wandered aimlessly along the street.

I even went to a cloth shop that looked good. The cloth inside was not much better than that in Genshan Town, but there were many kinds of materials and patterns on the cloth, and the price was really affordable.

The two discussed for a while, bought a lot of cloth, and ordered several sets of ready-made clothes.

Lin Qi didn't know how to needle and thread. Zhuang Xinyan didn't want to use needles anymore after simply learning how to mend. The embroidery workshop in the town can do it with some money.

Zhuang Xinyan went to the inner room to measure the size.

Lin Qi looked around, and his eyes fell on a counter next to him.

On the red-lacquered wooden cabinet, there are several small tiger-head shoes, which are extremely cute.

The big red is exquisite, and the position of the tiger's head is also inlaid with a little rabbit fur.

"Guest, the tiger is the king of beasts. It can devour ghosts and demons, drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters. Wearing tiger shoes on the baby can strengthen the child's courage and protect the child's health and safety." The second came up next to him, and said politely: "Let's The tiger-head shoes made by the shop are the best, and after they are finished, they will be served in temples for a few days, and all the children will look white and fat when they wear them."

When Lin Qi saw the person coming, his face was a little hot, and he just wanted to put down the tiger-toed shoes, but after listening to Xiao Er's words, he was really moved.

"The implication is good, install five pairs first, anyway, you can use it later."

Before Lin Qi could speak, Zhuang Xinyan, who followed him, opened his mouth. He looked at the shoes in Lin Qi's hands, and he was really cute.

Lin Qi glared at him immediately: "Where do we need so many?"

Zhuang Xinyan was funny, stared at him and said, "We don't have so many children, so they can be given as gifts, right? Or when Lin Baocheng has a child, you uncle must prepare a gift."

Lin Qi gritted his teeth, he was sure that Zhuang Xinyan deliberately made him think wrong, this guy was really bad in private.

However, he still didn't refuse, and five pairs of small and cute tiger-toed shoes were included in the purchase.

The next two days.

The two of them just walked around, and the money on their bodies shrunk a lot, but the smiles on their faces were even worse.

Lin Qixian still had some heartache, but Zhuang Xinyan grasped and brainwashed him, and gradually put it down.

On the top of the hill near Xingcheng, there is a temple full of incense.

The two got up early in the morning and headed towards the temple.

In Zhuang Xinyan's previous understanding, places like temples were just for peace of mind.

But now he is not sure, just because what happened to him is really too miraculous.

Looking at the majestic Buddha statue, Zhuang Xinyan thought, if it really comes true, what he wants is to live with Lin Qi forever.

Obtained a safe lottery and ate the fasting meal in the temple.

Lin Qi's face was always full of joy. He reached out and patted the purse on his waist to make sure that the safety lottery inside was still there. He turned his head and said, "I always feel that it will fall, why don't you just pretend."

Zhuang Xinyan jokingly said, "I'm not afraid of losing money when I put it in, how can I be afraid of it when I put a few safe lottery?"

Lin Qi said: "Naturally it's different. The master said that these safety signs are buried at home, and they will surely keep the family safe."

Zhuang Xinyan's joking expression was gone, what was left was a smile from the heart. He took the purse, stuffed it into his pocket, patted it twice, and said, "I will definitely pack it firmly, let us Bring home peace."

Lin Qi smiled openly, his face full of spring breeze.

But at this time, a figure ran over quickly, his face was full of surprise, before he got close, he shouted loudly: "Lin Qi, it's really you!"

……

Outside the tea shop, Zhuang Xinyan crossed his arms, raised his eyebrows and looked at the man with a joyful expression on his face.

On the contrary, Lin Qi didn't have so much joy on his face, he even frowned and said, "I didn't expect to see you again."

The man, that is, Shi Yu restrained his joy, "I wanted to come to you, but..."

'Tattoo. '

Before he finished speaking, he was stopped by the business of tapping his fingers on the table. Zhuang Xinyan raised his brows and ignored this person, but turned his head and asked Lin Qi: "Who is he?"

Strong sour taste.

Under the table, Lin Qi stretched out his hand to hold his fingers, crossing his fingers tightly.

He said: "When I went to the opera garden to look for Lin Dong back then, they wouldn't let him go. I could only make a big fuss and take Lin Dong out. I didn't expect to bring out a person unexpectedly."

As he spoke, he raised his chin slightly to signal the person opposite.

There was no smile on Shi Yu's face but bitterness. The two people on the opposite side had an intimacy that couldn't be penetrated. Just think about it and you'll know what the relationship is.

However, in fact, he knew it would be like this a long time ago. Although he was a little unwilling, it was not unacceptable. After all, Lin Qi was a thought in his heart, but this thought was just a regret in his heart.

As long as Lin Qi can live a good life, it is a good thing for him. He paused and said: "Speaking of it, it is also thanks to Lin Qi. At that time, he was young and ignorant, and he believed that no one was sent to that black theater garden. If it weren't for Lin Qi It made a big fuss, and I couldn't take the opportunity to escape."

To put it lightly, only he knew the danger at that time.

There was no acquaintance around him, and he was trapped in the room.

He regretted that he didn't listen to his family members, didn't know people clearly, and fell into this place like a cage. Even thinking about it now, he feels scared. If it wasn't for Lin Qi's tricks when he came, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to escape now. Even if the family members wanted to rescue him, they didn't even know where he was.

"You don't need to say that. If you didn't make a move later, the people in the theater would not let me and Lin Dong go." Lin Qi said.

He made a fuss, but how could those people be afraid of him, a farm boy.

If Shi Yu hadn't found someone to control the theater in the end, he and Lin Dong wouldn't be able to go home at all.

Zhuang Xinyan also understood at this time, although it is said that the soft is afraid of the hard, the hard is afraid of the violent, and the violent is afraid of death, but in this era, some people's lives are worthless at all. Of course, there is confidence.

Lin Qi was able to escape at that time, and no one even came to ask for trouble.

Of course it's not because the people in the theater are afraid of him.

I'm afraid Xiyuanzi no longer existed at that time, and the reason should be because of the person opposite. It is not easy to think about the origin of this person.

Shi Yu smiled faintly, "That's even, you saved me, and I helped you too."

Lin Qi also nodded.

After that, the three of them were speechless, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Shi Yu knew that it was best for him to get up and leave at this time, but this person who had been thinking about it for many years was sitting opposite him, and he really didn't want to just leave like this, even if he just said a few more words.

Then he waved his hand, ready to call the waiter in the tea shop to serve melon and fruit snacks.

But as soon as he raised his hand, he heard a sharp wind coming from his ears. Before he could react, he saw Zhuang Xinyan standing up, holding a long whip that he was very familiar with, with a serious expression on his face, It made him feel very uneasy.

He didn't need to look at the people behind him, he knew who it would be, Shi Yu hurriedly got up, and he said: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding."

Zhuang Xinyan gave him a cold look, then grabbed the long whip with his backhand and stretched out his hand to pull it hard.

The man at the other end of the long whip was pulled forward by this force, and his abdomen hit the round table heavily, causing him to cry out in pain, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Why are you pulling?"

"Zhuang Xinyan, are you okay?" Lin Qi took Zhuang Xinyan's hand and looked through it carefully. Fortunately, there was no injury, so he felt relieved, and immediately said to the man who suddenly threw the whip: "Are you crazy, and the whip is thrown at people?"

Chang Zian glanced at him coldly, "It's not like I threw it at you, do you feel distressed?"

Lin Qi was out of breath, and blurted out: "My man, I naturally feel distressed."

Now, the faces of the two of them changed suddenly.

Zhuang Xinyan's eyes were full of joy, he was very happy for the four words in front of it.

Chang Zian's face instantly sank, he turned his head suddenly, and gritted his teeth at the man and said, "He already said you are his man? How long do you want to hide it from me?!"

After saying this, the other three were a little stunned.

It was because the person Chang Zian was talking to was Shi Yu.

Shi Yu blushed, and he said a little speechlessly: "You misunderstood."

Chang Zian frowned, and glanced at one place from the corner of his eye, where he saw his hands clasped tightly.

At this time, he naturally understood.

There was a blush on his fair face, and he suddenly lost the previous baring of teeth and claws. He stood up straight, twisted his whip tightly with both hands, and said stiffly after a long while: "Did I do something wrong?"

……

So, I changed from the tea shop to the private room of the restaurant.

Four people occupy four positions.

Zhuang Xinyan also put his hands on his chest, and looked at the two people opposite him coldly.

Chang Zian pursed his lips and said nothing, but secretly looked at Shuang'er next to him.

It was this person that Shi Yu had been thinking about for so many years, but he did not expect to meet him in Xingcheng, and then his eyes fell on the man next to him, thinking in his heart, fortunately, the person Shi Yu was thinking about was married.

"Finished looking?" Zhuang Xinyan said coldly, "Aren't you going to explain?"

"I'm Shi Yu's husband." Chang Zi'an puffed out his chest and said awkwardly, "Is there nothing wrong with teaching my husband a lesson?"

"Since you want to teach me a lesson, let's be honest. What should you do if you threw the whip directly into the middle of the table instead of facing anyone, and hurt innocent people?" Zhuang Xinyan's voice was cold, although there was no accident with that hand just now. It can't hurt anyone, but if the long whip smashes the teacup and teapot on the table, it will scratch other people if you are not sure.

Just because of this, Zhuang Xinyan was very impatient with this pair.

Chang Zian immediately shrugged his shoulders. He was out of breath, but he really didn't think about it so much. He said timidly, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't be so reckless."

On the other side, Shi Yu, who was confronted by Chang Zi'an, who was upright to teach him a lesson, blushed, and said bluntly, "You are not my husband!"

Chang Zian turned his face away: "Sooner or later."

Shi Yu clenched his fists: "When did I say I wanted to marry you?"

Chang Zian stared at him: "You've already kissed me, and you still plan to marry me?"

Shi Yuqiang stepped on it: "You made it up by yourself!"

Chang Zian spread his hands rascally: "Anyway, we've already kissed each other, so you must marry me."

Shi Yu: ""

The two came back and forth, completely forgetting that there were two other people in the private room.

Zhuang Xinyan and Lin Qi were a little speechless at first, but they became more and more interested as they watched the food on the table.

Especially Zhuang Xinyan, with such anger on his face, I'm afraid Shi Yu is thinking about his little husband, such a person should be taught a lesson, looking at his shy but helpless face , he felt that he could add another bowl of rice.

It's just that these two are also weird.

From standing and arguing, to sitting on a chair and picking up the dishes, it didn't take long before they were able to chat peacefully again.

Sure enough, it's not that the family doesn't enter the house, but a pair of lovers who are happy.

I don't know if it's because of watching this excitement.

The four of them were able to talk, and at this moment, Chang Zian was like a child acting in front of adults, puffing his neck and praising himself: "The whip I just swung on purpose, if it really hit him My heart hurts, I'm amazing."

Shi Yu blushed, picked up the teacup and poured cold water into his belly.

However, Zhuang Xinyan glanced at him, and said calmly: "It's still my Lin Qi who is very good at hunting a wild boar without a weapon."

Chang Zian immediately turned his head, looking a little stunned.

Lin Qi also had a trace of embarrassment on his face, and secretly tugged on Zhuang Xinyan's sleeve to tell him not to talk too much.

Chang Zian puffed his cheeks: "I can also dance swords, and it looks so good that Shi Yu didn't even blink."

"Puff...cough cough." Shi Yu covered his mouth in time, but fortunately he didn't spray it on the table.

Zhuang Xinyan put a peanut in his mouth: "Can dancing with a sword hunt a wild boar?"

Chang Zi'an was panting for a moment, stopped eating, took Lin Qi's hand and led him out, and said as he walked, "Teach me how to hunt, and I'll go to the mountain to hunt one tomorrow."

After the people left, Shi Yu sighed softly, and said, "I'm kidding, Zian was spoiled by the family, so it's inevitable that he's a bit arrogant."

Zhuang Xinyan glanced at him, but said nothing.

Shi Yu felt inexplicably embarrassed.

He naturally knew what Chang Zian was thinking, but he didn't know how to respond.

To put it bluntly, Chang Zian took the initiative in the kiss that day, but it cannot be denied that he was also moved.

It doesn't matter if you say he is timid or a coward, this time when he left Shangjing, although he had business to do, he wanted to come out and hide for a while, but he didn't expect Chang Zian to follow him from such a long distance up.

The moment he saw Long Whip, he was really surprised, even more surprised than seeing Lin Qi.

He didn't want to think about all this at first, but for some reason, Zhuang Xinyan's look made him feel like a scumbag, and he couldn't help thinking about it.

The author has something to say:

Chang Zi'an's mind was very simple. Shi Yu's obsession with Lin Qi meant that Lin Qi was good. If Lin Qi could hunt wild boars, he must be able to hunt wild boars.
