Five-year-old little girl: Mom has thousands of acres of material space

Noticing Jiang Xiaoxiao's appraising eyes, shopkeeper Zhou also felt a little embarrassed on his face. He coughed lightly and said: "Second Master Shen has no hobbies, just this sweet one. Your ice cream is the most popular with him. He usually spends time in the county government office. To handle the case, we have to send someone here to deliver one to him every day."

Jiang Xiaoxiao: "..."

How come a person in his twenties still loves sweets like a child...

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Shen asked me to prepare some food for you before he went upstairs." Shopkeeper Zhou said, raising his hand to call people to the kitchen, "What do you want to eat? Let's take a look first. I will The kitchen will prepare it for you."

Jiang Xiaoxiao was relieved when he heard this. It was fine if they didn't eat together. After all, there were differences between officials and civilians. He was a dignified county captain, and they were just ordinary people. It was still very stressful to eat together.

She glanced at the lobby on the first floor. It was already past dinner time and there were still many seats left. The mother and daughter could sit wherever they wanted.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, don't bother, we won't be eating here." Jiang Wei suddenly said, "I came to Yuelai Building this time because I have something I want to ask shopkeeper Zhou about."

Shopkeeper Zhou raised his hand and paused: "What's the matter?"

"Do you know which store in Yong'an Town is vacant and for sale?"

"The shop..." Shopkeeper Zhou thought for a while and said, "Don't tell me, I happened to hear two days ago that the shopkeeper of a teahouse on the street sloping from our restaurant is planning to sell the shop and take his wife, children and children back. Although the business of the teahouse in my ancestral home town is a little quieter, the location is still good. You can go and see if you like it."

Jiang Xiaoxiao was overjoyed when she heard this, they actually met her!

She quickly said: "Mom, let's go take a look quickly."

Jiang Wei nodded and said goodbye to Shopkeeper Zhou.

After leaving Yuelai Building, Jiang Wei did not rush to find the teahouse across the street. Instead, he led Jiang Xiaoxiao to sit down at a street vendor stall and ordered two bowls of wontons and two pancakes.

"Eat first and then go see it."

"Okay." Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded, feeling happy.

Now she was sure that her mother-in-law didn't have the slightest interest in that Shen.

at the same time.

Shen Que sat by the window of the private room on the second floor, looking at the mother and daughter happily eating wontons under the food vendor's stall, his dark eyes invisible.

Shopkeeper Zhou stood next to him. He looked at his face and glanced at the untouched food and ice cream on the table, and then cautiously said, "Could it be that the delivery of the letter did not go smoothly today?"

Shen Que didn't speak.

He slowly looked away from the window and took out a letter from his arms.

There was no name on the envelope, but the seal had been opened, so it was obvious that the letter inside had been read.

Although flying pigeons deliver messages in a timely and rapid manner, pigeons flying in the sky will always be shot by an arrow from someone spying in secret, and they will be caught.

Since coming to Yong'an Town to take office, he has become accustomed to the postal communication method. Although it is slower, it is safer and more confidential.

In addition to sending a letter to Jiang Yu today, he also went to the inn to receive the letter.

The letter was sent by the eldest son of the Shen family.

Thinking of this, Shen Que frowned and tightened his fingers on the letter. The paper he had just read for a long time was crumpled into a ball by him.

Shopkeeper Zhou was looking around, seeing Shen Que's face getting worse and worse, and he roughly guessed who sent the letter, and there was a bit of worry on his face: "Could it be from the capital..."

"Those old guys probably guessed that eldest brother is not in the capital." Shen Que sneered, "The tiger talisman is still in eldest brother's hands. They are always on guard against our secret meetings between the two brothers, and now they can't help but go to the admonition saint. , forgive me for my past dereliction of duty and let me return to Beijing as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Shopkeeper Zhou fell silent. Since it was the one who issued the decree, there was really no other way.

Shen Que's eyebrows were heavy.

On the surface, he was recruited by Yan Guan, who wanted to curry favor with the prince, and was sent to this small place to be a county lieutenant for the rest of his life. Little did he know that he had taken advantage of his plan and deliberately came to Yong'an County to look for that thing.

But now... there is not much time left for him.

The Shen brothers were not under the noses of those guys, and some people were already starting to panic. Even if Jiang Yu went back, he would not be able to eliminate those people's doubts.

While thinking, Shen Que looked out the window again, his eyes falling on the mother and daughter sitting under the food vendor's stall. He narrowed his eyes slightly: "You said before... her husband's family had an affair with the Huang family. Intersection?"

Shopkeeper Zhou nodded: "The daughter of the boss of the Li family in Yuhe Village is married to the Huang family. Not long ago, she was pulled into the Huang family's house by a carriage from the back door."

"Marriage, huh, I really won't change my mind." Shen Que lowered the corner of his mouth coldly, "Is that woman still alive?"

Shopkeeper Zhou shook his head.

You can't say for sure, it all depends on the Li family woman's belly. If she's like those innocent women before, she won't be able to escape even if she thinks about it...

He thought for a while and finally said: "Master, if you are sure that the thing is in the Huang family, you can send troops to surround the Huang family right now..."

"You underestimate that old guy from the Huang family." Shen Que interrupted, "That thing is the Huang family's life-saving amulet. If he rashly scares the snake, he will definitely destroy it. Isn't that like the group of old people in the court?" What does this guy mean?"

After saying that, he sighed softly: "That's all, let's take it one step at a time."

If he still can't find the thing before returning to Beijing, it won't be too late to send troops to the Huang family.

After thinking about it, Shen Que spread out the crumpled letter paper in his hand and placed it on the candlelight on the table until the flames engulfed the paper. He suddenly thought of something and glanced at the Jiang mother and daughter in the distance outside the window, and spoke again. : "You should keep an eye on her family's purchase of a shop. If there is anyone who can help, try to help."

Perhaps, the opportunity to enter the Huang family to find that thing lies with them.

"Okay." Shopkeeper Zhou nodded in agreement and then exited the private room.

……

Jiang Xiaoxiao ate a large bowl of wontons and burped with satisfaction.

"Mom, let's go see that teahouse when we're full." It would be bad if someone else gets to such a good spot first.

While she was talking, she looked at Jiang Wei, who was sitting opposite, but found that the wontons in her bowl were only half eaten.

"Mom, why did you eat so much? Do you have a bad appetite?"

"...No." Jiang Wei slowly put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked away in a certain direction in the distance without leaving any trace, "Mom, you're not very hungry, just eat whatever you want. If you're full, we'll go Look at the shop."

"Okay, let's go." Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled and put down the twenty coins, stood up, but quietly glanced in the direction where her mother was looking just now.

It's a private room on the second floor of Yuelai Restaurant.

However, the moment she looked over, the window of the private room happened to be closed, and she only had time to see a strand of casual clothes.

That was Shen Que's casual clothes.

Could it be that Shen Que had been peeking at them in the private room on the second floor while they were eating? (End of chapter)
