Eat in Song Dynasty

Chapter 6 Out of Control
At the same time, Weiyuan Houfu.

Outside the study, Lu Xi looked at the sky. Seeing that it was almost time, the door of the study was still closed, and there was no movement. After hesitating for a moment, he finally stepped forward and knocked on the door, "Master."

In the room, Lu Yuancheng, who had been sitting withered all night, came back to his senses. Seeing the high sky outside the window, he couldn't help being startled, and asked after a while: "What time is it?" "

"Young Master, Maochu has just passed." Lu Xi replied outside.

Hearing this, Lu Yuancheng rubbed his sore forehead and stood up, walked around to the desk, and said softly, "Come in."

At the command, Lu Xi hurriedly signaled the maids behind to follow, and he opened the door first to enter. The maids behind him were holding the water basin, and the clothes etc. followed behind him.

After a while, Lu Yuancheng was washed by the maids, but he was still thinking about what happened yesterday.

Yesterday he took the opportunity to stay in Yushi's mansion for several hours, during which time he also avoided the servants and went to the study to investigate, but in the end he found nothing.

The list that shocked the government and the public three years later is not in Yushifu at this moment!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help frowning deeply.
Seeing this, Lu Xi on the side asked with concern, "Young Master, what's the matter?"

Rebirth is a big secret, and the matter is too complicated, even though Lu Xi is his confidant, Lu Yuancheng didn't intend to tell it, so he just said calmly: "Well, I thought about something, by the way, what I told you yesterday , how is it going?"

Lu Xi immediately replied: "Young Master, I have already inquired clearly, but that Mr. Wen Xiaolang is not a regular employee of Wang Ji's Fourth Division, but a substitute worker recommended by an acquaintance, and it is listed in Wang Ji's employment book His specific address is not recorded in detail, but he is only known to live in the north of the city."

"Then find someone who will ask him to do the job." Lu Yuancheng straightened his sleeves.

"The villain also thinks the same way. I went to that house yesterday to look for it, but unfortunately, that family happened to go out. The little one just wanted to go there again today."

Lu Yuancheng nodded, looked out the window and said, "I'll keep an eye on this matter, and report it as soon as I find the residence."

"Yes." Lu Xi respectfully agreed.

On this side, Lu Yuancheng saw that the green bricks outside were slightly damp and the leaves were fresh green. He couldn't help but startled for a moment, and muttered to himself, "Is it raining?"

Lu Xi on the side thought he was asking him, so he hurriedly said, "Yeah, it has been raining for a quarter of an hour. It's a blessing that the rain came in time, otherwise we don't know how many people will be affected by the sky fire in the north of the city."

Hearing this, Lu Yuancheng's hands that straightened his cuffs slammed, and he said in shock, "What did you say! Is there water in the north of the city?"

Lu Xi didn't know why he was so excited, so he said a little nervously: "Yes, it is said that the fire was quite big. The diving team tried their best to put out the fire for nearly an hour, but still burned down more than [-] or [-] houses."

Lu Yuancheng frowned tightly after hearing this, and at the same time, a heart in his chest was beating rapidly.

Why doesn't he remember that in the 32nd year of Tiansheng, there was a fire in the north of the city!
Nothing was found in Yushifu yesterday, and now there is an unexpected natural disaster, what went wrong?
Thinking of this, he felt a sense of crisis for no reason.
It turns out that after being reborn, not everything can be controlled
In Xiaocha Lane, Wen Tai sighed repeatedly while looking at the scorched blackened shop while cleaning the stagnant water in the low-lying places in the courtyard.

Wen Shu moved a small square stool and sat by the well, cleaning all the pots and pans moved out of the kitchen one by one, and at the same time mentally calculated the things lost this time and the money needed to buy them again.

Outside the door, the hawker's cries could be heard clearly.

"Trowel. Freshly steamed fish buns, steamed buns."

"Vegetable cakes, meat cakes, and hibiscus cakes are all just out of the pan."

"Soups for sale, there are cardamom soup, Poqi soup, Yuzhen soup, and mint."

Wen Shu heard many strange hawkers that he had never heard before, and thought: Today is more lively than in the past.

After thinking about it, I realized that eight out of ten households in the alley have been hit by disasters. I guess no one is in the mood to cook breakfast this early in the morning. Hearing that there are hawkers outside, they will definitely spend their money to buy a pair of them. Don't worry, let's settle down first.

Thinking of this, feeling the emptiness in her belly, she also put down the work in her hands, opened the courtyard door, and waved to a peddler selling steamed buns outside the door.

"Brother, do you have vegetarian steamed buns?"

"Yes, yes, how many do you want, my lady?" The peddler eagerly pushed the cart over.

Wen Shu thought for a while and replied, "Four."

"Well." The peddler stopped the car, took out a piece of oil paper neatly, picked up four vegetarian trowels and put them on, and then asked: "I also have the sugar-meat buns that girls love most, my little one." Ma'am, do you want to go up to two?"

Wen Shu shook his head politely: "No, I've been tired of eating meat for the past two days, so I want to eat some vegetarian food." Then, he handed over the two pennies for steamed buns to the peddler.

Turning around and closing the courtyard door, she said to Jishui Wentai who was cleaning the courtyard: "Father, have something to eat first, let's do it later."

Hearing this, Wen Tai put down his broom and came over. He got up in the middle of the night to fight the fire and was busy this morning, so he was already hungry.

After receiving the steamed bun from Wen Shu, he said with a slightly dazed expression, "Why is it a steamed bun, don't you usually eat Zhang's meat pie the most?" Then, he broke the trowel and said, "It's still without filling. "

Wen Shu said sadly: "This is different from the past. Our shop has just been hit by a disaster. I don't know how much money it will cost to rebuild it in the future. At this time, every penny saved is a penny."

Wen Tai shook his head repeatedly after hearing this, but he didn't say anything at the moment. The father and daughter stood by the stone table like this, eating two palm-sized steamed buns dryly in the damp and cold air.

After eating breakfast, the father and daughter continued to do the unfinished work before.

After all the cleaning work was done, the two got together again and began to take inventory of the things lost in the fire at home. At the end, they made two long lists, which Wen Shu remembered, and went to the market to buy them back later.

After roughly estimating the prices on the two lists, Wen Shu's already worried face wrinkled together in an instant.

"Three strings of money! It's not easy to earn some money in this world, but it's like running water to spend!" As he said, he angrily slapped the list on the table.

Wen Tai on the side shook his head and sighed, then took the list on the table and said: "The government's regulations haven't come down yet, I have nothing to do today, so leave the shopping to me. You still have to go to school in the afternoon. Just study more when you have time."

Thinking about the money that will be spent like running water, Wen Shu nodded with the concept of out of sight and out of mind.

As soon as Wen Tai left, Wen Shu checked that there was nothing to do in the courtyard, so he went back to his room to study.
