There is a kind of scholar

Chapter 59
The streets were a little deserted in the early morning, and the white clouds on the horizon were getting brighter and brighter. It would only take half an hour before the red sun would shine all over the world.

In the middle area of ​​Jiaolou Street, breakfast shops such as steamed cake shops and porridge shops are already open for business. The steamers several feet high are steaming with white steam, and the banners with the word "congee" written on them are swaying gently in the early morning breeze.

When Su Xian walked on such a street, he felt a strong atmosphere of the market coming to his face.

Thinking of what happened last night, I felt like I was in another world.

The owner of the breakfast shop, as well as the early diners, were horrified that something big happened in an empty house on the street last night, maybe even a murder...

"Mr. Su, do you want to buy steamed cakes?" The voice of the steamed cake shop owner came from beside him.

"Ten!" Su Xian came back to his senses and walked over with a smile.

When Su Xian walked to the porridge shop with ten steamed cakes, a neighbor in front of the steamed cake shop said in surprise: "The nerd is as skinny as a monkey. He shouldn't eat much, but how can he buy ten steamed cakes at one time? He can eat it Are you done?"

"Could it be that a relative came to the house?" another person speculated.

"I haven't heard of it! Oh, by the way, I saw a nerd buying ten steamed cakes at once a few days ago. It is said that he made some money from the stinky tofu collaboration with Tofu Xishi, so he is very generous..."

"I see...but it's such a waste!"

"You don't care what you do, people are happy with it."

"That's right... The nerd has entered the porridge shop. How many bowls of porridge do you think he can drink?"

"Three bowls, right?"

"It is said that the last time the nerd went to the porridge shop, he threatened to order ten bowls of thick porridge, but he only drank three bowls. This time should be no exception."

"..."

After a while, Su Xian left the porridge shop, holding a food box in his hand, which should be packed porridge.

After Su Xian walked away, the neighbors who had just been upset came to the porridge shop carrying two steamed cakes and asked casually: "How much porridge did the nerd pack just now?"

"Ten bowls of thick porridge!" The porridge shop owner wiped his hands on his apron.

"Ten bowls? Or thick porridge?" The neighbors were stunned. "Can a nerd eat ten bowls of thick porridge by himself? Is that impossible?"

"Could it be that the nerd's family really has relatives here?"

The porridge shop owner waved his hand and said with a smile: "It is said that he has raised several puppies. The dogs eat more when they are growing up."

"Oh I got it!"

"..."

After Su Xian returned home, he brought breakfast to the study.

After all, Yang Zhilan's identity is sensitive, and before a suitable identity is arranged for her, it is best to stay in the room on the second floor.

It’s best not to move around anywhere else in your home to avoid accidents.

The desk in the study room was used as a dining table, and the two of them sat opposite each other.

"Eat, you're welcome. You should be hungry after working so long last night."

Su Xian first picked up a steamed cake and started eating it with porridge.

Yang Zhilan was really blunt, as if she hadn't eaten for a few days, she grabbed a steamed pancake in each hand and moved her bow left and right, very fast.

Seeing her eating happily, Su Xian felt very happy. It was a blessing to be able to eat.

But then, Su Xian couldn't be happy anymore. This Yang Zhilan looked short and short, but she was a full-fledged foodie!
Su Xian only finished one steamed pancake, and she finished four.

Su Xian only drank half of the bowl of porridge, and she destroyed half of the porridge in the food box...

Yang Zhilan was enjoying her meal. After finishing the steamed cakes in her left and right hands, she subconsciously went to get the steamed cakes with both hands.

However, at this moment, Yang Zhilan noticed that Su Xian was staring at her straightly.

Looking up, she saw Su Xian holding a half-eaten steamed cake in his hand, staring at her dumbfounded, as if looking at a monster.

Yang Zhilan swallowed her saliva, her hands that had touched the steamed cake froze immediately, and then slowly retracted, sitting there with her head bowed like a subordinate who had made a mistake.

It turns out that she, who is the number one killer of internal guards, would also be embarrassed... Su Xian smiled and said, "Keep eating, you're welcome, I'm just curious that you are thin and thin but can eat so much food."

Yang Zhilan looked at him without speaking.

Hey, I'm sorry... Su Xian picked up two steamed cakes and stuffed them into her hands. While eating, he said, "I told you last night that you don't have to worry about eating and drinking with me until you're full. You're welcome."

Two days ago, Su Xian would not have dared to say such a thing, because at that time his income was only the dividends from Liu Huixiang's stinky tofu.

But it's different now. He has a huge sum of more than 3000 taels.

No more worries about food and drink.

"Oh."

Yang Zhilan nodded and started eating, but much slower than before.

Su Xian slowed down his eating and drinking, and said: "I'll go next door to borrow some women's clothes later, you can take a good bath and change clothes."

"Yeah." Yang Zhilan nodded silently.

Although she was curious about why she wanted to "borrow" it instead of buying it, she didn't ask because she really didn't talk much.

Su Xian naturally had his own considerations. It was inappropriate for him, a grown man, to suddenly go to a clothing store to buy women's clothes. It would be better to ask Liu Huixiang to borrow 01:30 old clothes.

"As for bedding, pillows, etc., I will find time to buy them. Well, I also need a new set of bedding..."

"Um……"

"..."

After eating, Su Xian saw that Yang Zhilan was full of meaning, so he asked: "Is it enough? I'll buy it if it's not enough. It doesn't need a few dollars."

"It's not close." Yang Zhilan's voice was calm, but Su Xian caught a "sorry" expression from the depths of her eyes.

"Okay, then just stay at home and I'll go buy it."

Su Xian left the study and went down to the first floor along the creaking wooden stairs.

At this time, the sound of grinding in Liu Huixiang's house next door stopped, and was replaced by the sound of voices... Wait, there seems to be a man's voice?
Su Xian frowned slightly and walked quickly to the door.

He pulled the latch and pushed open the door, only to see a man in a black police officer's uniform embroidered with gold standing in front of the door. He raised his hand as if to knock on the door.

Su Xian suddenly opened the door, seemingly interrupting the policeman's knocking on the door. His expression was slightly dazed.

"Lin Captou!?"

After Su Xian was stunned for a moment, he recognized this person. He was none other than the head of the county government in Leshou County, Lin.

Looking behind Capt. Lin, I saw that the street was filled with police officers, policemen, civilians, etc., all with standard swords hanging on their waists, their faces stern and murderous.

Su Xian's heart suddenly trembled, thinking that what happened last night was a crime?
Otherwise, why did Capt. Lin come here with so many agents, servants, and civilians? Isn't it just to catch him?

With a solemn heart, Captain Lin suddenly put on a smile, made a bow, and said with a smile: "Master Su, I was just about to knock on the door, but you opened the door, which saved me a lot of trouble, hahaha... …”

Seeing his expression, Su Xian felt relieved as he didn't look like he was here to catch him.

So he bowed and said in return: "It turns out to be Captain Lin. I wonder why he brought so many people here so early in the morning?"

"Under the orders of the Ming Dynasty, the whole city is searching for murderous fugitives!" Captain Lin said loudly.

Fugitive murderer... Su Xian's eyes widened suddenly, and he finished his thinking. There have been no murder cases in the entire Leshou County recently, only last night...

Su Xian's heart couldn't help but sink to the bottom. What happened last night was finally exposed!
