The beggar Lai Gouer asked himself that he did not have any great goals in life, but it did not mean that he did not yearn for a better life. He felt that a good life meant being warmly dressed and well fed. No, he had set his sights on it again.
At that stall selling tofu in the west of the city, the tofu pudding there was the most delicious food in the world that he had ever tasted. Of course, the proprietress selling tofu pudding was even more plump-looking, but she was a little older.
She was wearing a floral cotton dress, but it could not hide her exquisite figure at all. When she bent down to make tofu cakes, her buttocks were tight and strong, and it could be vaguely seen from the bottom of her open clothes.
A belly as white as tofu. If I could marry such a charming wife in this life, my life would be perfect.
Lai Gou'er straightened the messy clothes on his body. No matter how he did it, the stench on his body was still difficult to remove, but it did not stop the scent of tofu flowers from wafting to his nostrils, which made him feel fierce.
He swallowed hard the saliva in his throat.
Tofu Xishi, hehe, Lai Gouer didn't know what he thought of. He grinned and secretly became happy. He didn't know that his body was slowly moving towards the tofu stall without his control. And he
His eyes were fixed on the boss's wife's high buttocks, and he forgot that the aroma of tofu flowers aroused the craving in his stomach.
"Lai Gou'er, look, it's time for a spanking." A voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Lai Gou'er's thoughts. When he looked at it, the graceful and graceful Toufu Xishi in front of him was staring with a look of disgust.
Looking at him. Her pretty face was as white as snow, and her delicate and fair skin revealed a faint blush, which was about to take away his soul.
At this time, the sun was setting in the west, and the soft red sunlight gave off a dizzying light, and the tofu Xishi in his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of charming color.
"Haha, Madam Lin, you haven't closed the stall yet. Look, it's getting late now, so you should close the stall." Lai Gouer felt like a few deer scurrying around in his heart. He smiled coquettishly, thinking that would be the end of it.
It's past.
"You brat, you're not serious. Sister, I'm a poor man. No, let's eat all the leftovers. Look at you, this child has no father and no mother. It's so pitiful." Then.
The lady of the Lin family whom Lai Gouer was talking about let out a long sigh and handed over the remaining tofu puddings, giving them all to him who was full of stinking odor.
"I know that Mrs. Lin is kind-hearted." Lai Gou'er hurriedly took the remaining tofu pudding from the other party's hand, and did not forget to give her a heartfelt compliment. But today's tofu pudding can be used as usual.
There are a lot more. Look at the chopped green onion and sesame oil floating on the tofu flowers, which makes him happy.
"You brat, who did you learn from? How did you become so sweet? Did you steal someone else's honey somewhere? Please slow down, okay? No one is trying to steal it from you.
." The lady of the Lin family straightened the floral blue silk scarf that was about to fall apart on her head, and when she saw that the other party was devouring it for a while, she hurriedly reminded her.
Lai Gou simply ate the rest of the bowl of tofu pudding by pouring it down. He wished that his mouth could fill the entire floral porcelain bowl. At the end of the day, he didn't forget to lick the corner of his mouth with his tongue.
He returned the bowl to the other party with hesitation, but what he didn't notice was that because he ate too much, there were a lot of tofu cakes stuck to his dirty cheeks, black and white, how do you see it?
They all felt so ridiculous.
Madam Lin didn't remind her, but turned around to pack up her belongings. In fact, there wasn't much, just a few wooden barrels and tableware for some seasonings. As for the stall, it was just a few wooden boards put together.
It's not worth a few copper coins.
"Hurry up and find a job. It's not an option if this continues. I heard that Yuan Zhang's family in the east of the city is looking for servants. Do you want to give it a try? It's better to have a decent job than begging for thousands of dollars on the street.
Time. Look at you, you're seventeen or eighteen years old, and you're still not serious all the time.
While Mrs. Lin was packing her things, she was lecturing the lazy dog who had just eaten the rest of her tofu pudding. She chatted for a long time but did not hear any sound from the other party. She did not follow her words as usual.
In response, she felt something in her heart and looked up, only to find that the lazy dog had already run away.
Not far away, two people walked towards each other. They were not very old, a year or two younger than Lai Gou'er. One of them was wearing a blue shirt and carrying a simple black iron sword on his back. Look at this
The young man has clear eyes, but reveals an indescribable handsomeness. The other one is a fat little Taoist priest. A large Taoist robe tightly wraps this fat body.
There was an unfinished childishness on the Taoist priest's chubby cheeks, and he could tell at a glance that he was a little Taoist boy who had escaped from a Taoist temple.
And Na Lai Gou'er was heading towards the two people. Although there were many pedestrians on the street at this time, these two people looked like they were from other places.
"Oh, this stinky boy, the scar has healed and he has forgotten the pain." Mrs. Lin shook her head when she saw this. She packed up and left her stall, and she would not go there no matter what Lai Gouer's harvest was.
No matter, but she had a hunch in her heart that the lazy dog would return without success like last time. As for whether he would be beaten to lie in that ruined temple for half a month, she didn't know.
.
The inexperienced Lai Gou'er was like a hungry wolf eyeing its prey. Apart from the two foreigners, there was no one else in his eyes. According to his past experience, this little Taoist priest wearing a wide robe should be a target.
It's just a fat sheep, and the boy in blue shirt has basically no profit to make.
He was overjoyed and saw the two foreigners approaching slowly. There were other pedestrians on the street. Although it was not too crowded, it did not prevent him from taking advantage of the opportunity. Look at the fat Taoist priest, his face was full of joy.
The fat meat showed a greasy red light, and one glance revealed that the Taoist boy had sneaked out of the Taoist temple at home. The luggage behind him was very bulging, and there might be some valuable things. It was just the target of the luggage.
It's too big. It would be great if you can easily take it away. But the most important thing is the gold-lined money bag pinned to the waist of the fat Taoist priest. It is a good thing that ordinary people rarely see.
There must be a lot of silver ingots in that bulging money bag, so that I don't have to let those little beggars starve.
After making up his mind, Lai Gou'er was not in a hurry. The prey he was looking for would definitely not be able to escape. However, he still had some lingering fears in his heart. Just a few days ago, there was also a fat rich man, followed by a group of people.
He is an old servant with dim eyesight, and the fat young man is obviously a hot master. The thieves and scoundrels on the street have all started thinking about him. I don’t know if it is because I am unlucky or something, I
The first one sneaked closer and stole the jade pendant from the fat young man's waist. Although he escaped from the encirclement and suppression of other gangsters and thieves, he was finally killed by the old servant with dim eyesight.
After being caught, he ended up lying in a dilapidated temple for nearly half a month.
There must be something wrong with this, right? The lingering palpitations made Lai Gouer feel an inexplicable tremor in his heart. The huge pain of his whole body falling apart is still lingering in his heart. It was really an unbearable feeling.
He did not expect that the old servant beside the fat young master would actually be a master of martial arts. As for how high he was, he did not dare to think about this issue.
Lai Gouer secretly took a look at the crowd again and found that these two people had no other accomplices and were not being targeted by other thugs. This made him feel a little more at ease. If he made a mistake again this time, the group would
The little ones who are huddled in the ruined temple are tired of starving to death.
The flow of people is endless, pedestrians are either slow or taking advantage of it. Lai Gou'er slowly approaches the two leisurely fat sheep with the crowd. At the same time, he also secretly feels a little excited in his heart. It's like the white silver ingots.
It was right in front of his eyes, he could reach out and grab it, and he couldn't help but grinned happily.
The visitors were none other than Ye Yinfeng and the fat Taoist Li Xiaoyao. They got off the merchant ship from Yanziji in the south of Jinling City and headed west along the wall that surrounded the city for more than thirty miles. Along the way, looking at
Ye Yinfeng felt inexplicable emotion in Ye Yinfeng's heart about this majestic city wall that was seven to eight feet high. The huge palaces and courtyards were scattered with stars everywhere, as if they were born in a majestic heavenly palace.
Although it was dusk, Li Xiaoyao was taking him all the way. Every time he went to a beautiful place, Li Xiaoyao would explain it to him. After all, Li Xiaoyao was the half owner of this majestic city.
.Ye Yinfeng is not in a hurry. He doesn't know where the other person is taking him or where he wants to go. He just takes it as he comes. He is always casual and does not deliberately go to the other person.
This road went up from south to west, and came to a street that was not spacious but very lively. A scattered and crowded alleyway was connected to this street. Everywhere you could see a few feet of width rising up in the wind.
There are small shop flags and small mobile stalls placed randomly on the street.
The number of pedestrians on the street is neither too many nor too few, and it has not reached the level of shoulder-to-shoulder walking just off the boat from Yanziji. However, most of the pedestrians here are simply dressed, clean but with a hint of difficulty.
Smell the atmosphere. Occasionally, you can see a few fat-headed, big-eared, round-necked satin businessmen who look like businessmen, some well-dressed people in the world, and of course some tattered beggars walking freely among the crowd.
, the dirty smell all over the body only made pedestrians frown for a while.
Maybe this is another feature of Jinling City. Just like Jiangzhou City, there are prosperous areas, and there are also areas where dragons and snakes are mixed. There are rich and noble people with stinking fish meat, and there are homeless beggars who are suffering from cold and hunger.
No matter how peaceful the era is, no matter how prosperous the city is, such a scene will remain unchanged and endure for a long time.
Li Xiaoyao looked around with great interest. He didn't care at all that his large Taoist robe had become a unique scenery here, and he didn't even know that he had already become the little fat sheep in others' mouths. Of course, even if
He wouldn't care about his outrageous attire, and his face was thicker than the city wall. At this moment, he didn't have the ghost whisk, and only wore a greasy robe.
The mountain bison's nose is more like a little Taoist boy who fled the Taoist temple and couldn't stand the celibate life in the Taoist temple and ran away with a huge sum of money.
As for Ye Yinfeng, he was dressed in a blue shirt. Although he had a somewhat elegant and ethereal temperament, especially his handsome appearance, he was probably regarded as Brother Rabbit who was abandoned by some prominent official. Everyone ignored it.
The iron sword on his back has no edge and no scabbard. These days, the one riding the white horse may not be a prince, let alone a young man carrying a sword. Does that mean he must be a swordsman?
In fact, this is not Lai Gouer's idea, but also the thoughts of some gangsters who hang out here. No, a man with a beard and a beard is looking at this inexplicable appearance with a pair of shining eyes.
At the same time, he also saw Lai Gou'er, who kept approaching the two people, but the way he looked at Lai Gou'er revealed a bit of disdain and contempt.
