Li Cunyi discussed with the postman and ordered food. This post was close to the capital and was bigger than the ones he had visited before. Everything seemed to have been prepared long ago. Not long after ordering, there was steaming noodle soup.
It was served on the table.
Shu Yao felt a little uncomfortable. Ordinarily she shouldn't eat in such a public place, but when going out, the rules sometimes have to be broken. Just as she was hesitating, she saw Yi Cheng walking over with a smile on his face, and he walked over from a long distance away.
He bowed his hands to Li Cunyi and said as he got closer:
"Mr. Li has worked hard all the way, and the villain is disappointed when he is far away!"
Li Cunyi didn't have any real job, but he just donated a small official position. The Yi Cheng was so polite, probably for the sake of Shu Yao's father Li Cunren. Li Cunyi didn't dare to be the boss, so he stood up to greet him, bowed his hands and returned the courtesy.
:
"You're too polite to be too polite. Don't dare to do me any favors."
Yi Cheng did not say much greetings, glanced at Shu Yao, smiled at Li Cunyi and said:
"First of all, let me apologize to you, sir, and let you sit here with your family. So, I just asked the adults who stayed earlier for permission, and some people are willing to give up two upper rooms to you. Sir, I can do it now.
Are you going to the room, or are you going to go there after dinner?"
If you have a room, of course it would be better to eat in the room! Li Cunyi didn't even think about it, and hurriedly thanked the Yi Cheng, "Can you please ask someone to take my niece to the room to eat!"
Shu Yao had already stood up, and now she squatted slightly towards Yi Cheng to express her gratitude.
The postmaster waved his hand to express that you were welcome, and called another postman over, leading Shu Yao and others to the backyard, and ordered a new table of dishes to be prepared and served.
There was still a building in the backyard. The postman took Shu Yao and others upstairs, and after turning a few corners, they arrived. After entering the house, Qiu Shuang and Liu's mother quickly changed the things on the couch into Shu Yao's own.
.Shu Yao then threw herself on the bed and lay down comfortably. Her whole body relaxed, and her bones seemed to be falling apart. She still felt as if she was still in a carriage, feeling a little swaying here and there.
The food was served quickly, simple but hot. I was on my way, so I just ate some cold pancakes and snacks and drank hot tea in the carriage. Now I was so hungry that my chest was pressed against my back. When I saw these meals, I immediately opened my index fingers.
.No one needed to pull her, Shu Yao got up as soon as she smelled the food.
Although she still followed the rules and ate slowly and methodically, Liu's mother still frowned when she looked at Shu Yao. After looking at Shu Yao for a while, she couldn't help but say:
"It's late at night, miss, use it less, be careful of accumulating food."
After hearing this, Shu Yao gracefully picked up the soup bowl, drank the last mouthful of soup, put down the bowl with satisfaction, and wiped her mouth.
Mother Liu and Qiu Shuang had already finished eating at the small table. Seeing that she had finished eating, they hurriedly got up and cleaned up. In a hurry and tired from the journey, the three of them washed up hastily and arranged for Shu Yao to sleep on the couch, while Mother Liu and Qiu Shuang spread out on the floor.
I added a thick mattress and a charcoal basin, so it’s not too cold to sleep upstairs.
After a while, Liu's mother and Qiu Shuang took deep and slow breaths. They thought they were extremely tired and had fallen asleep.
She was too tired, or had just eaten too much, but Shu Yao couldn't fall asleep. After lingering for a while, she was about to fall asleep when she suddenly heard a gentle knock on the door outside. After listening carefully, it turned out that the knock was coming from outside.
It's the next door.
The person living next door should be his uncle Li Cunyi. Shu Yao's drowsiness disappeared immediately, and she lay quietly listening to the noise. The voices outside were very low, and she could vaguely hear someone asking her uncle to come downstairs.
I was reluctant at first, but then suddenly followed the visitor downstairs.
