Chapter 173 Grand Meeting

The sweetness of that sip of wine and all the wonderful illusions it brought about made her deeply immersed in it now.

However, if you think about it carefully, maybe you tasted it secretly when you were young, so you have a different taste.

The beggar was so strong that Boyi couldn't pull his hand away from Yu Qiansi for a while, trying to divert his attention: "Old man, I wonder where you got all your wine?"

The man's turbid eyes slowly moved to Boyi's face. After seeing him clearly, he slowly broke out into a wild smile, then released the hand that was holding Yu Qiansi, and laughed on his back.

"Hahaha, I won, we won! It's not a dream, it's real... we won!"

Seeing that he suddenly went crazy, Boyi quickly protected Yu Qiansi and took a few steps back.

The beggar's smile became even more exaggerated, and he rolled on the ground.

"Aru, let's go..." It seems that I can't figure out what to ask. The worst thing I can do is try other methods in the future to make better wine.

Yu Qiansi hesitated for a moment: "Wait for me here."

She turned around and walked away quickly. After a while, she brought back a jar of new wine and placed it in front of the beggar who was still laughing.

"Old man, I will give you this jar of wine as compensation. Thank you..."

If she hadn't secretly drank his wine out of curiosity, seen all kinds of fantastic sights, and learned about the vastness of the world, she would not have made up her mind to actively seek opportunities to earn a future for herself and her mother.

There are these opportunities later.

Boyi also took out five copper plates and put them together with the jar of wine.

"Although I don't know your past, since you are the one who helped Aru, you should naturally be grateful. But Aru's previous thoughts were also very thoughtful. Money may be a disaster rather than a blessing for beggars on the street. These five copper coins

Once you have it, it should be enough for daily emergencies."

After that, he picked up the lantern on the side and led Yu Qiansi away.

Behind them, the old beggar, who had been laughing to himself just now, looked at the backs of the two of them, took the jar of wine into his arms, started to cry, and still murmured: "I really did it...

....This time, we will win.”

Sobbing and moaning in the night wind, Boyi looked back at the dark place, and the mystery surrounding the woman in front of him became even more foggy.

If we say that Yu Qianshan's previous provocations against her were all due to the internal fighting within the Yu family.

But as the next head of the Yu family, she has general medical skills and is very secretive about the affairs of the four families. But if this is the case, why should she enter the official position in a high-profile manner in the name of the Yu family?

Although the Yu family has many contacts with beggars, how could she secretly drink the beggar's wine? Let alone such a dirty broken bowl.

Seeing her lowering her eyes and gazing at the candlelight, her curled eyelashes and pear curls outlined with golden tranquility, all those complicated questions disappeared. He also calmed down and quietly felt the comfort of this moment.

From the moment she stood in front of Mr. Lin in Fa Jin Hall and defended him publicly, he never investigated her privately again. He even ignored the rumors from the outside world.

If she can tell herself her little character "Qingru", why not wait until one day, she will tell herself other things, everything.

There's no rush, he can wait.

The two looked around the inn and then returned to the inn. They happened to encounter a caravan carrying several carts of wooden boxes covered with oilcloth awnings. They were busy and busy in the small courtyard at the side entrance of the inn.

Yu Qiansi didn't know what he saw. He frowned slightly and felt dissatisfied. He bypassed the frolicking crowd and entered the front hall of the inn. He found a large empty table in the corner and sat down, ordering a few dishes at will.

Snacks.

Not long after, the caravan leader and his deputy, who had just passed by each other, entered the inn. After the leader booked beds and guesthouses for the entourage one by one, he ordered his deputy to go out and distribute the room number plates to everyone outside the door, while he himself

He led a young man in rich clothes wrapped in a cloak to the second floor.

When the snacks ordered by Yu Qiansi and Boyi were all served, the team leader went downstairs to meet his deputy. The two walked around the hall and saw Yu Qiansi and Boyi occupying a large table.

Before he even got close, he put on a smile and crossed his hands and said, "You two, there are no more vacancies in this hall. Can it be convenient for me and my brothers to share a dining table with you?"

Boyi looked at Yu Qiansi, who nodded lightly, and then he signaled the two of them to help themselves.

Yu Qiansi caressed the edge of the teacup, as if asking casually: "Are you two from the capital?"

"Yes," the team leader put down the wine pot and introduced with folded hands: "My surname is Cui. I am selling some barbarian furs to the south with my brothers. In recent years, the south has become colder every day in winter.

Hu people’s fur is thick and big, so it’s in high demand!”

"You two don't look like the people who make the final decision."

Leader Cui pointed to the upper floor and said, "It's the first time for my young master to go on a far journey. The weather was cold and he was afraid of the cold, so he went up to rest first."

Seeing that Yu Qiansi was unmoved, he asked curiously: "But how did the girl know that we came from the capital?"

Yu Qian took a sip of the hot tea, and the salty aroma filled her mouth. The tea in the south still retains the habit of seasoning it with various spices from the previous dynasty, but it has a different taste.

Holding the tea cup, he pointed in the direction outside the door, and the two of them turned their heads in that direction to look.

"The carriage was bought by the carriage dealer in Tonghuafang, right? Look how old it is. Is this your first time doing business?"

The two Cui brothers' expressions froze, and they sat back in a sullen manner. It happened that the waiter in the store passed the dishes, which concealed the slightly weird atmosphere.

Boyi looked at Yu Qiansi, who still lowered her eyes and remained silent. No wonder she looked dissatisfied outside the door just now.

Tonghuafang gathers warehouses from all over the capital and is a place where Hu merchants and Tang merchants often come and go. With more people, there will naturally be discerning merchants doing business, buying and selling carriages and horses, etc., in case the merchants come and go from time to time.

needs.

However, merchants use their own carriages and horses when doing business. They do not buy things when they arrive in Chang'an. Only when something is occasionally damaged, they will buy one or two to make up for it. Therefore, the styles of the carriages and horses of ordinary caravans are different from the old to the new.

But their carriages and horses are all of Tonghuafang standard, so they look like novices at first glance.

It would be fine if they wanted to do business on a whim. However, the way they dressed and behaved was that of seasoned businessmen, which was really full of mistakes.

It was really laughable to have walked all the way in such a nondescript manner.

Leader Cui was also surprised and asked, "It's already this hour and there are still so many people in the city. It seems that the Dharma Assembly in Qi Buddha City is well-deserved. Fortunately, today is over, otherwise I don't know when tomorrow will be."

Only then can we set off."

"Hey, sir, you don't know yet?" When the waiter who was passing by heard this, he lowered his head and introduced happily: "This year's Seven Buddha Dharma Assembly is not just seven days, but there is another day tomorrow! All distinguished guests have also caught up!

Early tomorrow morning, the seven giant Buddhas will be carried out and paraded on the streets for believers to pay their respects, and they will have to visit the entire Seven Buddha City!"

At this moment, the four people at the table were all stunned on the spot.

"Isn't the Seven Buddha Dharma Assembly only for seven days?"
