Now that Xiao Qiao found the target treasure room, she naturally let go of the food box she was carrying, and was about to dodge her body.

Almost at the same moment, there was a sudden wind behind him!

He nearly fell over in shock.

Unexpectedly, the food box let go, but it didn't fall to the ground in time.The visitor caught the food box firmly at the critical moment, and did not forget to spit on him: "What are you doing, you poor and anxious look!"

Xiao Qiao turned around in a cold sweat, and saw an old lady with white hair.

The old lady is not tall, with a hunched back and a walking stick in her hand, but she is full of energy.In particular, she has a restrained spirit and a graceful gait, obviously possessing superior internal strength.

Although it was said that Xiao Qiao was distracted by surprise just now, but she didn't notice until she was in front of her, which shows that her skill is extraordinary.

When the guards on both sides saw the old lady coming, they also bowed and saluted her: "Old lady Xiao!"

Xiao Qiao's thoughts changed sharply, and she thought that the Xiao family in Yangzhou is a famous family, and this is probably the elders of Xiao Honglei's family.

The old lady Xiao weighed the food box in her hand and sneered, "Don't overturn my lunch." At this moment, she saw Xiao Qiao's face, and her angry face turned into a kind expression.

The old lady took a step forward leaning on her crutches, a chrysanthemum was about to burst into a smile on her old face full of creases, she said kindly, "Is this baby a child of the Murong family in Gusu?"

Xiao Qiao was dumbfounded: "Huh?"

The old lady looked at his elegant little face, and the more she looked at it, the more she fell in love with him. She put the food box aside, and reached out to pinch his cheek.

She couldn't put it down and asked: "Oh, this baby is so beautiful, I think it's better than Mr. Yu. What's the name? How old is this year? Are you married? Have you ever been engaged?"

Don't tell me, Xiao Qiao has picturesque features, but she is still childish. This kind of looks is really lethal to middle-aged and elderly women!

Xiao Qiao rolled her eyes, and replied obediently: "My name is Le Cheng, I am nineteen years old, and I am neither married nor engaged."

The old lady laughed more and more from ear to ear: "Nineteen, good, good, it's just right for my Lei'er."

The guard next to him looked at Xiao Qiao with doubts in his eyes.Someone said: "Old lady Xiao, this person is not from the boat."

The old lady didn't care, stomped on the crutches of the faucet, and the deck shook three times.

She grinned with a few teeth and said: "Huh, it's up to you to say that? So is Xiaoman, so is Mr. Yu, and even more so is the Taoist priest who suddenly appeared! I can't wait to meet my old lady face to face when I get on the boat. Don’t you think the old woman is nagging? This baby probably does too, thinking that if she hides and doesn’t show up, the old woman won’t bother her?”

Xiao Qiao snickered, and hurriedly said sweetly: "Where is the mother-in-law talking! It is our honor to be juniors to be able to talk with you all the time."

The old lady said with emotion: "Old and old, it's annoying. The old lady just talked too much about their marriage, and she was dismissed! This baby is still sweet."

All the guards showed horrible expressions.

The Double Ninth Festival in Jinling this time originated from the fact that Xiao Honglei used recruiting relatives as a bait to avenge his relatives.

Mrs. Xiao is her great-aunt. When she heard the news, she was more worried about her precious niece and granddaughter marrying someone wrong than her relatives who had passed away when she heard the news.

She followed Xie Xiaoman and his party to Jinling by boat.Along the way, I met young heroes like Murong Yu and Lan Guanxue. Of course, I cared deeply and went straight to the point. What I cared most about was whether they were married or not.

That's all for Murong Yu, he and Xiao's family can be regarded as relatives and friends, but he was blind since childhood, and the old lady was naturally dissatisfied.

But seeing that his senior brother, Lan Guanxue, is as dignified as the head of the Dragon Sect, who wants good looks and talents, isn't he a good candidate for Cheng Long Kuai son-in-law?

Lan Guanxue only arrived at Xiao's house last night, and the old lady slept in early so she didn't meet her.But as soon as I saw her this morning, I immediately approached him enthusiastically, asking about my health, and Lan Guanxue was so frightened that I ran away.

The Taoist priest also finally understood why several sworn brothers of his younger brother, who never accompanied him on the boat, agreed with him to lure the enemy alone with his blind body...

I really dare not face this old lady Xiao who likes to mess up the mandarin ducks, I can't stand it!

No, Lan Guanxue is obviously a Taoist priest, so she can be considered a monk, but she is chased and asked if she has any plans to start a family. It's really hard to explain!

This time is good, the old lady Xiao finally caught a little Qiao, not only outstanding in appearance, but also sweet and obedient, she only said that she was a son-in-law who came from heaven to ride a dragon, and the more she looked at her, the more she fell in love with her.The guard next to her questioned a little, but she immediately dismissed her.

The old lady sat down on the railing of the view, and said: "You guys, change shifts and go to eat. The old lady is here to watch the dowry of Lei'er, and see who dares to make trouble!"

In the eyes of Mrs. Xiao, these family fortunes can be regarded as Xiao Honglei's dowry.

Several guards winked at each other.Two people seemed to be leaving as promised, but instead of going to eat, they went forward to inform Xie Xiaoman that they had gone.The old lady is old and stubborn. Not only is it useless to contradict them face to face, but it will also provoke reprimand.

There were two other people, still standing silently on both sides, respectfully said: "Thank you, old lady, for your understanding. We will take turns after they finish eating."

Seeing this, the old lady Xiao stopped talking, and waved to Xiao Qiao, smiling kindly: "Baby, have you eaten yet?"

Xiao Qiao naturally saw the exchange of those guards, her mind was spinning rapidly, and said, "Not yet."

The old lady Xiao beckoned and said, "Come on, would you like to have something to eat with your mother-in-law?" She opened the food box and chattered, "I brought this cook from Yangzhou, and some of the dishes are delicate..."

The lid of the food box was opened, and the voice stopped abruptly.

The squishy crabmeat lion head is placed on the top of the grid, which is really invisible.

The scene was very embarrassing.

"..." A big drop of cold sweat dripped from the back of Xiao Qiao's head.

The old lady Xiao also said that her old eyesight had made a mistake, so she picked up the ivory chopsticks in the food box, rummaged through the dish, and asked suspiciously, "What is it?"

Xiao Qiao was quick to wit, salivating and said: "Grandmother, I know, this is chopping meat with sunflowers."

The old lady Xiao was silent: "..."

Xiao Qiao said to herself, "Look, mother-in-law, does this look like a sunflower in full bloom? The color is also similar! As for the rottenness...it is probably because the chef is afraid that your old teeth will be bad, so they made them softer on purpose."

During the reign of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, Yangzhou began to have the famous dish of "sunflower chopped meat", which was improved from the "tiaowan roast" recorded in the ancient prescription of "Shijing" in the Southern and Northern Dynasties.

In the Tang Dynasty, Wei Juyuan, a famous chef, made this famous dish when he was having a banquet at the Duke of Xun’s mansion. The sunflower was exquisitely shaped like the head of a lion.All the guests made fun of it, and said that the Duke of Xun had made great military exploits, and he should wear the seal of a lion commander.

Since then, the famous dish of "sunflower chopped meat" has been renamed "lion head".

Xiao Qiao talked nonsense, but it also coincided with the origin, and Mrs. Xiao was skeptical when she heard it.

She threw the tooth chopsticks away, and said with a deflated mouth: "Yes, I am old! The teeth are not good, and I lose my appetite when I look at it..."

Xiao Qiao wiped her sweat, and the two guards were sweating profusely.Damn it if you have an appetite for it!

The old lady Xiao was sitting lazily leaning against the bulkhead, and suddenly said: "Just now Xiaoman said that he would stop here for a while, the old lady should call a girl to get off the boat and buy some sweet-scented osmanthus, lotus root and honey cake. Love a bite of sweet and soft dessert.”

Hearing this, Xiao Qiao took out an oiled paper bag from her bosom, and said with a smile: "Grandma, there is no sweet-scented osmanthus candy. Here are some sweet-scented osmanthus candies. Would you like to eat it to satisfy your gluttony?"

It turned out that when they came out of the Jinshan tea shop, he remembered that his good brother Kitty Mao hadn't eaten all night and was almost hungry, so he specially packed some refreshments and brought them with him. This bag of sweet-scented osmanthus crisps.

He thought that if something similar happened again, he would have some sweets to fill his belly, so the kitten would not have to be forced to eat cat food again...

The two guards looked at each other, vigilant in their hearts, they rushed forward to stop them, and shouted: "Old lady, be careful of him poisoning!"

The old lady Xiao was just about to reach out to pick it up, but she was startled when she heard the words, and was about to stand up while holding on to the dragon's crutch.Seeing Xiao Qiao let out a long laugh, he said loudly: "Oh, I was spotted by you!"

With a little force, he smashed the oiled paper bag in his hand, let go and spilled a cloud of powder, and suddenly a cloud of gray mist rose in front of the cabin door, covering the three people's heads and faces.

The three of them were startled, and subconsciously held their breath, thinking that the sprayed powder mist was poisonous, and they all exited the enveloping range.

But Xiao Qiao didn't retreat but advanced, took advantage of the situation and rushed forward, smashed the lock with a wave of the abacus, leaned sideways and bumped with his shoulder, pushed open the closed cabin door, and crashed straight into the cabin!
