After all the busy work, it was already dawn.
Xiao Yu sniffed, transformed himself into a middle-aged man, and entered a private alley. He bought twenty mutton buns, a dozen or so oily steamed buns, and two bamboo buckets of mutton soup. Before leaving, he asked for two more bamboo buckets of boiling water to prepare milk powder for his sons.
When he went to the Xiao family to pack up and leave, except for the woman's private money, all the valuable money in the Xiao family was "taken away" by him.
In addition, Zhou Yan also helped him exchange a big goldfish for banknotes on the black market.
So now, he is not very wealthy.
Many historical stories describe a time when it was impossible to leave the house without a ticket. However, Xiao Yu discovered that whether in Huaguo Town, Luohe County, the ancient city, or the provincial capital, private businesses still existed. Every alleyway was bustling with activity.
Maybe it’s not those years yet! Xiao Yu thought.
☆
Xiao Yu went to another alley and ate a bowl of mutton soup with the others. Before leaving, he bought two bamboo buckets of mutton soup, two bamboo buckets of spicy soup, and three pot cakes.
When Zhou Yan arrived, he saw his "little landowner" drooling over a freshly baked sesame pancake. His mouth was already greasy, obviously from having eaten.
"Want to eat?" Zhou Yan looked at the little fool who had turned into a young man.
Xiao Yu thought that since he couldn't eat any more now, he could save it for lunch or dinner. After eating someone else's food, he felt that the steamed buns and dishes he made last night didn't taste good anymore.
"Give us ten pancakes." Zhou Yan took out money and tickets.
The boss was a private businessman. When he heard that they wanted ten, he immediately and enthusiastically filled them up and asked if they wanted to try his spicy soup.
Xiao Yu stretched his head to take a look and felt that this one was not as rich in content as the one he packed, so he shook his head.
"No thanks." Zhou Yan refused.
☆
The two found a sheltered place, and Zhou Yan ate three sesame cakes, three mutton buns, a bamboo bucket of spicy soup, and a bamboo bucket of mutton soup.
Xiao Yu was already full, but the food streamer, Mr. Zhou, was eating so deliciously. He also noticed the sesame seed bun was so delicious that he accidentally took another bite. He felt that if he ate slowly, he could have eaten two more.
Xiao Yu-_-||: You're such a brat! You're eating me out of money! With this stomach, what's going to happen in the future?
After eating, the two cleaned up and retreated to an empty house to make milk for the four children. The children woke up while their fathers were eating with great relish.
Then I watched them drooling. Several times, the eldest and second daughters almost ate the biscuits that their father fed them.
Unfortunately, their father wouldn’t let them, so they ended up not getting anything to eat.
☆
"How is it?" Xiao Yu held the two children and asked Zhou Yan with his eyes.
Zhou Yan helped the little girl straighten the bottle, then said, "It's hard to say."
Hard to say?
Xiao Yu looked at the child in his arms. He couldn't write now. He didn't use his spiritual sense to communicate with Zhou Yan before. Firstly, he was afraid of scaring the other party. Secondly, he found that if he used his spiritual sense to talk to the other party, it would consume the power of the incense.
Anyway, I'm speechless.
Now he has a lot of supporters, so he should be able to afford it if he uses his spiritual sense to say a few words.
"Hello? Can you hear me?" Xiao Yu asked using his spiritual sense.
Zhou Yan paused and looked at Xiao Yu, his expression clearly saying: Are you talking?
Xiao Yu nodded, because he realized that just saying five words had cost him an incense stick. If he said "hmm" again and spent another incense stick, he would cry to death.
"What's wrong? Why don't you talk anymore?"
"Talking to you is very expensive. Every word I say costs one incense stick." Okay, another incense stick.
Zhou Yan saw his resentful expression and burst out laughing. However, the little land's voice was so beautiful! Clear and bright, just like his personality. It would be great if he could speak in the future.
Xiao Yu→_→: You’re overthinking it. As long as you don’t complete the tribulation, in this world, my mouth can only be used for eating and taking naps.
☆
"Then let's write, shall we? You write very fast."
Xiao Yu: Thank you for the compliment.
"If it really doesn't work, we will go all the way to the capital and send a letter every time we arrive at a garrison. I don't believe that no one will take care of it." Xiao Yu said a long sentence in one breath.
Very good, he found the bug. As long as it is just "one sentence", he will get one incense stick.
"That would be too much of a fuss."
"They want you dead, and you're still afraid of making a big fuss? Given the current situation, filing a 'complaint' isn't too much of an issue. Gangzi and the others are still in their hands. They'll be living in danger every day until this matter is resolved. Are you going to wait until they take action before..."
"Okay." Zhou Yan thought, if the other party was really cruel and killed Gangzi and the others, leaving no evidence, then he would have no time to regret it. "I'll have lunch and then go check on the troops."
“…”
"There's also a City God Temple over here. Let's go take a look later."
Xiao Yu's eyes lit up and he nodded.
☆
A little kid handed the bottle to Zhou Yan, who took it and was about to take it away, but found that the kid was looking at him "Brin Brin" and refused to let go.
What does that mean? Zhou Yan was a little confused.
The child turned around awkwardly and looked at the milk powder bag and bamboo bucket on the table.
Zhou Yan: Although he can't speak, I understood him immediately.
"If you eat so much, your father won't be able to support you." Xiao Yu complained.
Zhou Yan's eyes flickered. He always felt that the 'I' in Xiao Yu's words was not referring to himself.
