Chapter 47 Two Carrot Heads
Song Weiwei was a little flattered and took the silver. She ran to Xu Miaomiao to show off, "Look, two guests from the Western Regions gave it to me just now. They said that the decoration of our inn is unique and looks a lot like their home."
Song Weiwei turned around with some pride and said, "I didn't expect that your house with special decoration can be used for something."
Xu Miaomiao looked at Song Weiwei's departing figure and smiled.
After a busy day, he brought some food home. Erbao was a little surprised to see the squirrel fish on the table: "Did mother make this?"
Gu Yuan's mother nodded and patted the little girl's head: "Who else but your mother can make such a unique dish."
Erbao tested his ability by using chopsticks and took a bite.
The sweet taste spreading in her mouth made her smile happily: "My mother's cooking is delicious."
As Song Wu Shao spoke, he tentatively took out his chopsticks and took a bite. The taste was indeed different.
"Although today is the first day the restaurant is open, the revenue is extraordinary. You can all take a good rest tonight. We have to go early tomorrow to prepare breakfast for the two guests."
As soon as Xu Miaomiao finished speaking, Song Weiwei immediately responded: "Okay, okay, as long as there is enough wine, I can do anything."
Song Wei smacked her lips, smelled the sweet wine in the cup, and couldn't help sighing: "The wine made by Liu Niang is so sweet."
Gu Yuan's mother chuckled.
When Song Wu Shao heard this, he couldn't help but picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
The novel taste spread in the mouth, it was sweet yet mellow, it was indeed a good wine, Song Wushao nodded.
After a night's rest, Xu Miaomiao hurriedly drove the ox cart to the store before dawn the next day, prepared a delicious meal, and knocked on the door of the two guests.
The man put on his clothes and opened the door, his words still a little shaky: "Excuse me, what happened?"
Xu Miaomiao laid out the prepared food on the ground and said slowly, "You two are the first guests to stay at our inn. I made some free breakfast, which is relatively simple. I hope you two guests don't mind."
"Oh, these dishes are so delicious." The man glanced at the breakfast in Xu Miaomiao's hand and took it impatiently.
Then he said something that was a little difficult to say: "I wonder if the inn can light a light at night. I got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, and the pitch-black night was a little scary."
Xu Miaomiao touched his head awkwardly and said, "It was lit, but it might have been blown out by the strong wind."
"Oh oh oh." The man nodded.
Xu Miaomiao turned and left, looking at Gu Yuanniang and said, "Yuanniang, I have to go out for a while, please keep an eye on the kitchen for me."
During this time, she asked Gu Yuanniang to cook a lot of dishes. Although they lacked some flavor, they were generally good.
Hearing her speak, Gu Yuanniang nodded and said, "Okay."
Xu Miaomiao packed up and walked out. She was going to buy a small shop so that someone would be able to help look after the store when they returned home in the evening.
It was Xu Miaomiao’s first time at a slave trading house, and she was still a little uncomfortable with the situation.
Here, skinny people were put into collars and tied together for sale.
Listening to the shouts coming from all around, Xu Miaomiao sighed.
"I told you not to listen!"
The man swung the whip in his hand, hitting the boy's naked skin again and again.
Pain spread all over the boy's body, and he didn't make a sound. Xu Miaomiao felt a pang of pain in her heart and stopped the man from swinging the whip.
"Whatever mistake he made, you have to beat him to death."
Seeing Xu Miaomiao, the man stopped and said with a loud sigh, "My lady, you don't know that this guy has a younger sister. He tried to escape in the middle of the night but I caught him. Of course I have to give him a good beating, otherwise he won't learn his lesson."
"Stop!" Seeing that the man was about to attack, Xu Miaomiao stopped him and took out a banknote from her pocket and handed it to him: "I'll buy this boy and his sister."
The man opened the banknote, smiled with satisfaction, and said kindly: "Lady, don't blame me for not reminding you. This guy is very strong. Don't think about influencing him."
Xu Miaomiao glared at the man and slowly uttered two words: "Key!"
"Okay, okay." The man said as he handed the key to Xu Miaomiao and mocked the boy beside him: "You are lucky to meet a kind person."
Xu Miaomiao was just about to untie the shackles around the boy's neck when the boy looked at her warily.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." Xu Miaomiao said.
Perhaps because of her gentle tone or maybe because she was a woman, the boy let down his guard.
The little girl has innocent eyes and looks quite old, but her thin body still makes people feel sorry for her.
Neither of them reacted until two bowls of hot wontons were served in front of them.
The boy asked tentatively: "Is this for me?"
Xu Miaomiao smiled and nodded: "It's not for you, can't I eat it alone?"
Perhaps because he had been hungry for too long, after hearing Xu Miaomiao's affirmation, the boy picked up the bowl and swallowed it in big gulps, not caring how hot the wontons were.
The little girl next to her blinked her eyes, looked at Xu Miaomiao, said thank you before she started moving her mouth.
"What do you want me to do for you?" The boy wiped his mouth, looked at Xu Miaomiao with a dark look and said, "Although you bought me, don't think that I will do anything shameful for you."
"Oh?" Xu Miaomiao became interested and looked at the little girl beside him, touched her head and said, "You can't do it, but can she?"
The boy stood in front of you like a frightened bird: "What do you want to do! Don't touch her."
"Haha." Xu Miaomiao laughed and said, "You are resisting me like this, aren't you afraid that I will sell you back?"
The boy's eyes were obviously dodging, but he still said firmly: "No matter what, I won't let you hurt her."
"Okay." Xu Miaomiao was somewhat impressed by the boy in front of her.
Seeing her clapping, the boy was a little confused: "What do you mean by that?"
"I bought you, naturally I want you to work for me, otherwise, would it be a waste of time to raise you?" Xu Miaomiao said slowly.
"What do you want us to do?"
"No rush." Xu Miaomiao slowly uttered two words and looked at them thoughtfully.
He first took the two of them to buy some decent clothes, and then brought them back to the inn.
"Hey, where did this little carrot head come from?"
As soon as Song Weiwei saw the boy, she wanted to pinch his face, but the boy snatched it away. Song Weiwei turned around dissatisfied and tried to pinch the little girl's face, but was stopped by the boy again.
"Tsk, you stingy guy." After complaining dissatisfiedly, Song Weiwei turned and left.
"Miao Miao, what are these two doing?" Gu Yuanniang asked the two people in front of her.
