Chapter 166 Is this the new trick to escape paying the bill?

I was drinking tea and chatting with some friends about whether there were any interesting books recently.

He had almost finished reading all the books in the capital, so he looked out the window bored.

This look was incredible. Who did he see?

Isn’t this Qu Qingheng?

Because of Qu Qingheng, he was beaten countless times, and the relationship between the two was pretty good in the later period.

He was afraid that he had seen it wrong, so he rubbed his eyes.

That’s right, it’s him!

So he didn't care whether he was in public or whether he should be careful about his words and actions.

I just leaned on the window sill on the third floor and shouted:

"Qingheng, Qu Qingheng."

The street was bustling with people and the noise was so loud that Qu Xiangbai didn't hear anyone calling him.

Qu Qinghui's ears are quite sharp.

"Brother, did someone call your name?"

Qu Xiangbai was puzzled and stood still to listen for a while, but heard nothing.

He turned to look at Qu Qingxu, meaning to ask him if he heard it. As expected, Qu Qingxu didn't hear it either.

Lin Jiang stood still and listened for a while.

“It seems so.”

Only then did they look around.

Unfortunately, Xiao Hongshen was no longer at the teahouse window.

He saw that Qu Xiangbai didn't hear him shouting, so he stopped shouting and just ran away.

Came downstairs to chase him.

The few friends left behind were all confused: What's going on? Why is Xiao Lao Er going crazy today?

Why are you calling Qu Qingheng from the window? Didn't Qu Qingheng leave the capital long ago?

Before anyone could ask, he disappeared again.

Is this a new way to escape paying the bill?

Qu Xiangbai and the others looked around but didn't see anyone they knew, so they ignored them.

A few of them strolled leisurely again.

In fact, Lin Jiang is not very good at buying things, only some fabrics and jewelry.

Qu Xiangbai also advised him that His Majesty would definitely give him a reward, so why buy these, it would be better to give him a small reward.

Lin Jiang didn't think so. The rewards were not carefully selected by him, so they were different.

Qu Xiangbai advised him once, but seeing that he didn't listen, he didn't bother to care anymore.

Okay, you have money, you can do whatever you want.

Finally, I went to the largest bookstore in Beijing.

Wow, this honest kid bought a whole box of storybooks, and he said it was for his mother to find inspiration.

There were also Lin He's pens and ink, and his elder brother, sister-in-law and younger sister's fabrics and jewelry.

The waiter sent them to the inn where they were staying temporarily.

The Qu brothers who followed the entire process: ...

Just as they came out of the bookstore, they bumped into Xiao Hongshen who was running towards them.

"It's really you, Qingheng. Ouch, I'm so tired."

He ran so much that his clothes and hairband were messed up. He bent over, supported his knees with his hands, and gasped for breath.

Qu Xiangbai's friend, Qu Qinghui and his brother must know each other.

Seeing him, Qu Xiangbai was slightly startled, and before she could speak, Qu Qingxu couldn't wait to ask.

"Mr. Xiao? Why are you here? Were you calling me Big Brother just now?"

Xiao Hongshen: .....

"If it's not me, who else could it be... I'm so tired... Ouch... Besides me, does he have any other friends in this capital?

How can you shop so much? A few grown men are going to jewelry stores and fabric stores. I had to ask around all the way.

"Don't you have to go to the government office?"

Qu Xiangbai asked him, since it was neither the time for the court to get off work nor a day off, what was this man doing on the street?

"Well...I just hold a sinecure in the Ministry of Rites. It's not my turn if anything happens. I'm drinking tea in the teahouse up ahead."

.....

Seeing that everyone was looking at him speechlessly, he felt embarrassed, but he still insisted.

"What's with that look on your face? Don't you understand my personality? I don't like being an official at all. It's my father and my eldest brother who forced me to do it."

"Okay, why are you complaining to us? Go back and complain to your brother if you have the guts."

Qu Xiangbai spoke.

He knew that Xiao Hongshen was most afraid of his elder brother.

"Haha... I was just telling you guys. But you guys are so mean. You didn't even tell me after you came to the capital."

"We're not here to play, we have something to do. Besides, we've been in the capital for quite some time and we have to go back tomorrow."

?

"So soon? And you mean you've been in Beijing for a while, and you haven't come to look for me yet? Qu Qingheng, are you still my brother?"

Seeing that he didn't listen to what he said at all, Qu Xiangbai felt helpless.

"We have something to do."

"Can you not contact your brother if you have something to do?"

He started to make a fuss, and Qu Xiangbai had no choice but to speak.

"Okay, okay, I'm wrong this time. How about I treat you to a drink tonight as a practice for us tomorrow? Is that okay?"

"Humph! That's more like it. I'm telling you, I want to drink at the biggest restaurant in the capital."

Xiao Hongshen became more and more demanding.

.......

Okay, you have the final say
