Chapter 277 The Lame Old Man
Slowly down the mountain, but did not see the previous Zhuangzi.

A mile away is an official road, and a house is faintly visible on the side of the road, with smoke curling from the chimney on the roof.

It can be guessed that it is a small tea shed, which provided a resting place for the post office servants, merchants and common people who delivered letters in the past.

Looking up at the sky, it was already noon.

"I'm hungry." Xin Mengyao pointed to the tea shed, "Let's go there and have something to eat."

"No, we need to meet the prince first." Xiao Ba blurted out, and refused after thinking about it.

Xin Meng gouged out Xiao Ba's eyes, pretending that she didn't hear him, she turned to Liang Xiujun and said, "I haven't eaten since I was captured by you. Is this how Da Zhou treats guests?"

In fact, after leaving the palace yesterday, Xinmeng only used a few snacks in Ruyi Embroidery and drank a cup of tea in the teahouse. After being captured, Chu Hanxuan and the others really did not give her anything to drink. .This morning, she saw a wild jujube tree in the mountains, which bore a few jujubes sparsely, half green and not red, and she picked them off and ate them, which was barely enough to fill her stomach.

Hearing this, Liang Xiujun's face changed slightly.This is indeed his negligence.This girl was unlucky, when they were taken captive, all of them had just had dinner at Yipinxian.

"Let's go, eat and wait there." The national teacher spoke, and Xiao Ba had no objection.

Sigh, swoosh, three loud arrows shot through the air.

Xinmeng, who was walking in front, narrowed her eyes and resisted not looking back.She was very familiar with this voice. She had heard it many times in her previous life and let it go by herself.

This sounding arrow is a means to communicate with nearby people.Liang Xiujun was informing Chu Hanxuan that she was caught and told him to turn around and come back.

Sure enough, after the loud arrows were fired, Liang Xiujun chased him up from behind.

Xinmeng thought, with two people and two hounds, she could not escape, and once Chu Hanxuan and Xiao Jiu came back, she would be even more difficult to fly.Now I can only hope that the owner of the tea shed is clever enough to let her find an opportunity to ask him to send a message back.

However, after sitting down in the tea shed, Xinmeng's heart sank when she saw Dr. Tea coming tremblingly carrying a teapot.

God's will, the Dr. Tea I finally met was a 70-year-old white-haired old man with a lame leg.

The doctor of tea wanted to pour tea for the guests by himself. Xinmeng took the teapot first, and while pouring the tea, she asked with a glimmer of hope: "Old man, you are so old, and you still do it yourself. You don't have a waiter in this tea shed." ?”

"Girl, what are you talking about? The old man's ears are not good, please speak up!" The old man put his hands behind his ears and moved closer to Xinmeng.

Xinmeng had no choice but to shout loudly into the old man's ear: "Old man...I said...you didn't ask a guy to help?"

Frowning and dodging to the side, the old man also shouted loudly: "What are you doing talking so loudly, the girl almost deafened the old man!"

Xinmeng: "..." Didn't you tell me to speak up?

"I didn't invite a buddy, there is only an old man here." After the old man finished speaking, he turned and went to the back kitchen to get the steamed buns ordered by Liang Xiujun.

Only crude tea and thick noodle steamed buns are served here, nothing else.Although one more worker can sell more food, but also pay wages.The old man couldn't pay the wages, so he could only run the small tea shed by himself to make a living.

Realizing that the old man was hopeless, Xinmeng's heart felt as if it had just been taken out of ice water, it was so cool.
