Mei Mei, who successfully clocked in, walked out of the alley with the support of Mei You. At this moment, Gu Pinglu, who was following them, spoke: "Well... I, I should go back..."

He didn't say where he was going back, but Gu Pinglu had a somewhat regretful look on his face, which Meiberry could tell.

So Mei Bei gently touched Mei You's shoulder with her shoulder, and then said to Gu Pinglu with a gossipy smile: "I still want to thank you tonight. Come to Yunzhou Mansion to see us when you have time in the future, we will definitely

As a landlord~"

After hearing Mei Bei's words, Gu Pinglu's brows relaxed as expected.

After getting the news that the other party had settled here, he clasped his fists and turned to leave.

"Wait a moment."

"Um?"

Gu Pinglu turned his head with a hint of expectation in his eyes. He felt something was stuffed in his arms. When he lowered his head, he saw that it was the biscuits that Mei You had bought just now.

"Earlier... you also queued up to buy biscuits, but I bought them all. If you don't mind that they are a little cold, take them back and eat them on the way."

Although Mei You still had a cold face, he didn't know if it was because of Gu Pinglu's "beauty is in the eye of the beholder", but he felt that Mei You was doing very well now.

After getting the Hu cake, Gu Pinglu's whole mood brightened visibly.

I was speechless looking at Demei Berry.

She could tell that the male protagonist seemed to be attracted to the female protagonist whom he had reunited with after a long separation, but her sister didn't seem to understand yet.

This male protagonist... [Hey~ turns out to be a sunny and cheerful golden retriever who uses his own brainstorming strategy~]

Regarding the male protagonist's comments, the system remained silent.

"Let's go~"

Mei Berry pulled Mei You around and rushed into the sea of ​​people.

The person who originally agreed to take the first step stood there in a daze, and only lowered his head when people could no longer see him.

Looking at the biscuits in his hand, Gu Pinglu looked at the mask he had just taken off for the other party, which was pinned to his waist and could not regain his consciousness for a long time...

As for Mei Qiu, Mei You soon regretted giving Hu Bi.

"That cake... I forgot. The boss will close the stall and stop selling it, so you won't be able to eat it anymore."

"It's okay~" Meiberry was in a very good mood after successfully clocking in. Except for the pain in her butt, she didn't have to worry about anything else.

Besides, she doesn’t even care about giving the male protagonist a piece of cake to gain his favor!

"Sister, just treat me to two more mutton skewers later!"

"OK."

There is a kebab shop on this street that is very popular.

Mei Mei and Mei You squeezed into the crowd and saw pieces of lamb the size of a baby's fist, with alternating fat and thin meat being skewered on wooden sticks.

A bunch of them costs seven or eight yuan.

This roasted lamb is more original than the roasted meat Meiberry has eaten before. The meat is very fresh and grilled on the fire without being marinated in any seasonings.

When it was sizzling and oily from being roasted at high temperature, the barbecue owner took out his homemade secret sauce and brushed it on it.

However, this was completely different from the sauce that was so fragrant in later generations that you could even brush the soles of your shoes. Meimei just smelled the aroma caused by the contact between the sauce and the hot mutton oil, and tilted her head and chatted with Meiyou——

"There is no cumin powder, no chili powder, or sesame seeds in this sauce. The sauce looks quite simple."

"Would that be delicious?"

This string is not cheap. Although the materials used by the other party are solid, Meiyou feels that there is no need to force herself to spend money to buy happiness.

She can get the same effect if she does it herself.

"It smells pretty good. Can I have two more skewers when the time comes to give my dad and the others extra food?"

In the end, the two sisters bought five skewers in total. Each of them ate one skewer and went back to Mei Youqian and the others with the other three skewers.

Unlike Meiberry, who was worried that they were already drunk, the adults only had a light blush on their faces at this moment, and continued to talk, looking almost the same as before Meiberry and the others left.

"Didn't you continue drinking?"

While Mei Mei and Mei You sat down, they teased a few adults.

It's not the year or the festival, although I am really happy to move here, but with a few adults drinking here, are we really afraid that we will go back and walk up the steps at night and fall down?

"No~ I just met Mei Yang, hey! I just talked about it for a while."

Speaking of meeting Mei Yang, Mei Youqian looked disgusted at first, and then he suddenly laughed out loud: "You don't know that guy didn't recognize me and Ah Cai when he saw him! I even looked at him more.

I glanced at him several times, but the other party didn’t respond.”

Ah Cai.

After changing her third uncle's name, she was quite determined to completely cut off from the past.

"You don't even recognize this?"

Mei Bei was surprised and already doubted Mei Yang's mind.

Is this really possible to test talents?

"A man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. In the past, everyone was shabby, with their faces turned to the loess and their backs to the sky. Although now..." As he spoke, Mei Youqian also touched his face, "It's still a bit rough, but it's definitely changed compared to before.

Quite a few, right?”

"right!"

Mei Berry looked at the clothes that her father, third uncle, and other adults were wearing recently. They were indeed very different from before.

Although it is not possible to reach the sky in one fell swoop, it is still a way for poor peasants to become well-off.

"I thought you were going to have an earth-shattering meeting, where he calls you and you don't acknowledge him, and then he makes a fuss and people around you start a lawsuit against you."

But Mei Bei was just joking, and she knew in her heart that if it were Mei Dahu, Mrs. Zhang and his like would indeed be in this situation.

But how could Mei Yang, a person who cares about face so much, do such a thing?

Meiberry looked around the bustling tavern and said, "What about them? Are they leaving after eating?"

"In the private room, there are a group of scholars who don't want to sit in the noisy environment outside. They think they are some kind of scholar~"

As Wei Meili said this, she picked the barbecue brought back by Mei Berry onto the plate with clean chopsticks and put it on the table for everyone to try.

She then added: "Just looking at his demeanor, someone who didn't know it would have thought that some landowner's young master came to take the scientific examination."

Miao couldn't help but shake her head after hearing this.

In the past few years, they have been eating rice and vegetables at home, and they all say that scholars have more food and clothing than ordinary people. They have no knowledge and only know how to hand over their hard-earned money for Meiyang to study.

But during this time, Miao also discovered that scholars were not required to wear long gowns and silk clothes. They said that they moved by boat along the way, and they also met a lot of scholars on other boats along the river.

There are many people who dress simply and even wear patches, and there are many scholars who study hard.

After getting off the boat and going to the pier, there were countless students who came to take the exam wearing shabby clothes but carrying book baskets.

Just like what the second uncle said, how can people like Mei Yang, who has started to have inflated vanity before he gets rich, expect the other party to shine brightly and lead the whole family to get rich?

Besides, they are not a family to begin with...

"Oh! This mutton is delicious! Don't talk about that bad luck, just eat meat!"

It’s not without reason that this roasted mutton is so popular. It’s charred on the outside, tender on the inside, and juicy. Mei Youqian’s eyes lit up as soon as he took a bite.

Who cares about Meiyang?

Is it bad to eat meat?

In the middle of the night, the wind started blowing on the mountain. When everyone left the tavern, the dark clouds had covered the moon. When they got home, the drizzle covered the entire Yunzhou Mansion...

Jiubaoxuan branch in Yunzhou Fucheng,

"Master, why are you here? You didn't even send a message?"

Yi San was startled by Xie Changxu's sudden visit in the evening.

Holding a cup of hot tea, he looked at the other party coming in in the rain, with moisture all over his hair. He said worriedly, "I will arrange for someone to prepare a room and hot water for you. You are in such a state..."

"No need." Xie Changxu shook his head, "I will leave later and come back in a few days. The noise in the city will be quite tense these days."

"It happened..." Xie Changxu stopped Yi San with his eyes before he finished asking.

"Why did I see people from the Gu family here today?"

"Oh, they probably came here to buy food. As you know, the military pay at Yanpingguan is always not enough, so they just find their own way."

"Where did they get the money?"

"The boss asked us to reveal to Gu Hou the news about the caravan that some princes were doing little things at the border, hehehe~"

Yi San said with a playful smile and met Xie Changzhen's deep eyes, and immediately closed his mouth.

"Find someone to inform them to evacuate Yunzhou City immediately and don't come here anytime soon."

Without drinking tea, Xie Changxuan took out the medicine bottle from his arms, swallowed one pill raw, then got up and left under the cover of night, leaving only the wind and rain in the city...

Mayberry: Eat meat.

Xie Changxu: Make trouble.

Meiyou: Eat meat.

Gu Pinglu: Run away.
