Blissful Days After Widowhood Chapter 50: Refugee
While he hasn't woken up yet, why don't you wipe it?
Ning Xi took out the handkerchief, gestured at not knowing where to start, sweating anxiously, he simply lowered his head and blew a few breaths at the saliva print, speeding up the air circulation, I wonder if it would dry faster. ?
"What are you doing?"
Ning Xi raised his head suddenly, his eyes were facing each other, the distance between the two was very close, and his breathing could be heard. Maybe it was because he had just woken up. Jun Qianyu's eyes were a bit ignorant and confused, but it was obvious Kind of cute.
Ning Xi "Ha!" The ground laughed dryly, and stepped back without a trace, "It's nothing, there was a flying insect over there just now, and I have already driven it away for you." He couldn't help but glance at the wet area. glanced.
Jun Qianyu followed her gaze and glanced down, his face became ashen: "What's going on?"
Ning Xi was determined to default: "What's the matter? Oh, you said this, don't worry, I won't tell you about your drooling while sleeping."
Jun Qianyu was so angry that she could not laugh or cry: "Joke, will my drool flow to this place when I sleep?"
"Why not?" Ning Xi personally demonstrated, "You just fell asleep leaning against the wall of the carriage, resting your hands on your head, saliva dripping out from here, and dripping down just in this position, I just I've seen it with your own eyes, but you don't have to be embarrassed, many people do this, and I won't tell anyone anyway."
Jun Qianyu snorted: "It's true, don't think that everyone else is like you, sleeps like a pig, and you don't know it when you lean on others!"
At this time, the carriage was stopped, and officers and soldiers outside the carriage were asking questions. Ning Xi raised a little curtain and stuck his head out: "What's wrong?"
Feng Zhihai told her: "I heard that there are refugees in the city, so I have to check carefully when entering and leaving the city gate, but we are all good citizens, so don't be afraid."
But there is one more person in this car, can you not be afraid? Ning Xi closed the car curtain tightly, turned around and whispered, "What should I do?"
Jun Qianyu shook his robe, uh, this cloth is too short to shake, so he could only pat it twice, and when he looked down, he saw a mark on the embarrassing position, and stood very depressed. stand up.
The carriage of the rented carriage is very low and narrow. He is tall and can only bend his body, and his tone is quite bad: "Get out of the way!"
Ning Xi was turned aside by him in a daze, and watched him just jump off. Feng Zhihai and the coachman were obviously frightened: "You, who are you?" He glanced at the momentum, and immediately shut his mouth and did not dare to speak.
I saw that he took out a sign and waved it in front of the officers and soldiers, and said something in a low voice, the officers and soldiers immediately became very respectful, and soon someone brought him a horse, and Jun Qianyu turned on the horse , and walked away without looking back.
"Who are you, it's fine if you don't say thank you, don't you even say goodbye?" Thinking of what he said just now, Ning Xi thought uncomfortably, whether he was angry or angry Woolen cloth? But if you are angry, you will be angry. Anyway, I didn't expect to have much friendship with these nobles.
The officers and soldiers didn't ask them any trouble, they waved their hands and let their carriage pass. Feng Zhihai and the coachman, look at me, I'll look at you, and finally Feng Zhihai gathered up his courage and asked, "Miss Ning. , that person just now..."
Before he finished speaking, Ning Xi decided to say: "Don't ask anything." After a while, he stuck his head out and added, "Also, don't say anything after you go back."
Feng Zhihai made a sealing gesture to express his understanding, and Ning Xi threw the curtain of the car and sat back.
Soon returned to Shuangxi Building, Ningxi took out the money to pay the bill for the carriage, and walked into Shuangxi Building with Feng Zhihai to see that it was time for dinner, but there were only a few guests in the hall. From the excitement of the past, it is really deserted more than a little bit.
Ningxi found Meng Shuangshuang who had just come out: "What's the matter? Could it be that something happened to me if I didn't stay in the restaurant for a day?"
Meng Shuangshuang said weakly: "Nothing happened in the restaurant, but I was a little unlucky. I encountered a group of refugees fighting at the door, and the fight was bloody, scaring the guests away."
Hearing that it wasn't an accident in the restaurant, Ning Xi was relieved: "We'll be fine by ourselves. If there are fewer guests, let everyone rest for a while!"
Meng Shuangshuang nodded: "That's right."
Ning Xi sees that something is wrong: "What's wrong with you, Shuangshuang, are you not feeling well?"
Meng Shuangshuang waved her hand and was about to speak, when a sarcastic female voice came from the door: "Tell her not to look and go, but she is as cowardly as a mouse, and deserves to spit out the gall."
Meng Shuangshuang was so angry that she wanted to pounce on An Mingyue: "You are so daring, you can still laugh when you see someone killed. Are you a woman?"
"I'm not a woman, is it only you?" An Mingyue angrily raised her chest and hit Meng Shuangshuang.
Meng Shuangshuang disdain: "little steamed buns!"
"You, I fought with you." An Mingyue was so angry that she wanted to scratch her hair, Ning Xi said loudly, "Okay, stop arguing, what happened?"
The two of them started talking one after another, and sometimes stabbed each other a few times. After listening to it for a long time, Ning Xi finally understood.
A few days ago, the weather in many nearby places was abnormal, and a major flood that was not seen in a hundred years was launched. Many villagers who were affected by the disaster left their homes and migrated. Because the capital is rich and it is easier to earn a living, many refugees have come to the capital.
Originally, the number of refugees was not bad, but it was nothing. As the disaster-affected situation has not been alleviated, more and more refugees have entered the capital. As a result, refugees from different places will naturally have turf disputes, and the resentment will grow. The bigger the knot, this morning, a large-scale armed fight broke out on Zhengyang Street in front of Shuangxi Tower. It is said that many people were killed and injured on both sides. In the end, the government dispatched armed suppression and arrested a lot of people before they were arrested. The matter subsided.
As for why Meng Shuangshuang was uncomfortable, in An Mingyue's words, she was too curious, so she wanted to join in the fun and watch people fight, only to watch a person's head split open with an axe. The brains sprayed all over her face.
Meng Shuangshuang fainted at the time. After being dragged back and splashed with cold water to wake up, she began to vomit and the sky darkened. The restaurant staff invited a doctor to come back for her, and the medicine was boiled and served, but she only drank After taking a sip, my head was full of brains like tofu flowers, and it was steaming hot, and I couldn't help but squirt out the concoction I just drank.
Although An Mingyue kept making fun of her, she couldn't bear to see her like this: "Ningxi, just come back, she's a foodie, you can make something delicious and you'll be fine."
Ningxi asked her, "What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."
Meng Shuangshuang waved his hands violently: "Don't, don't, don't mention the word "eating" in front of me now, don't call me for dinner, I'll go to bed."
Returned to the room and came out after a while, crying and sad: "Who can accompany me? I'm afraid."
Ning Xi sighed: "I'll accompany you, just a little tired."
The two entered the room, Meng Shuangshuang slept with her head covered, and only hoped that she would forget that disgusting thing when she woke up. Ning Xi slept enough in the carriage in the morning, and she didn't feel sleepy at the moment, so she just took it with her. With paper and pen, I wrote down the dishes I remembered in my mind. After writing for a while, I stopped, thought for a while, and then crossed them all out. I just wrote and crossed them out. One afternoon passed like this. It was still a messy mess, with no clue.
Meng Shuangshuang turned over and cried, "Ningxi, what should I do, now I close my eyes and the brains of that person appear in front of me, and then I'm so sick, even if I'm hungry, I'm still a little bit hungry. If I don't want to eat, will I just starve to death!"
"No, I'll be fine in about two days." Having said that, Ningxi was a little unsure in her heart. Thinking of Princess Qi's bony appearance, she couldn't imagine the plump and beautiful Meng Shuangshuang. It becomes like, "How about you try to think about your favorite food?"
"Okay, I'll give it a try." Meng Shuangshuang closed her eyes and thought about it seriously.
Ningxi stared at her nervously. Seeing that she finally opened her eyes, she hurriedly asked, "How is it? Did you think of something delicious?"
Meng Shuangshuang shook her head in frustration: "No way, I still don't want to eat it at all."
"Then why don't I tell you, come and listen?" Ning Xi thought about it and said, "Let's talk about some delicious cakes first, chrysanthemum cake, tuckahoe cake, Bazhen cake, and Huaihua cake? The fresh locust flowers that have just been picked are steamed in licorice water, and then steamed with 40% japonica rice, 30% white glutinous rice and 30% yam powder. Delicious."
"Wait, don't talk for now." Meng Shuang listened carefully, "I feel a little bit."
Ningxi waited for a while, then asked cautiously: "Do you want to eat locust flower cake? Although there is no fresh locust flower now, it is not difficult to make a similar taste with sun-dried ones."
"No, no, no!" Meng Shuangshuang slammed open the window and called out, "Aunt Zhou, come in."
Aunt Zhou thanked the cleaning work in the restaurant. When she had time, she would come back to the backyard to help them clean up, do laundry, etc. At the moment, she was washing a pot of clothes, humming a song while washing Wet clothes are hung on bamboo poles to dry.
Hearing Meng Shuangshuang called her, she hurriedly wiped her hands and walked in: "Miss Meng, what are you looking for from me?"
"Excuse me, Aunt Zhou, can you sing the song you just hummed to me again?" Meng Shuangshuang closed her eyes intoxicated.
Aunt Zhou pulled her shirt embarrassedly: "This, I can't sing well."
Ning Xi said: "It doesn't matter, just like just now, just hum."
