Chapter 153 Missed(1/2)
The sunrise in winter is always late. The cold wind whistles by the Dao Street, occasionally one or two people walking in a hurry. Occasionally, a bun shop has just opened. The steaming smoke and the bright candlelight in the house look a bit warm.
Mu Yu rubbed her hands and subconsciously pulled her clothes, but she still couldn't drive away the cold air. Looking at the bun shop shining with candlelight across the street, she couldn't help swallowing. Perhaps the man wanted to prevent her from escaping or perhaps he wanted to teach her a lesson, but he didn't give her any food since she took her away. Now she was already hungry and her chest was pressed against her back. This was the first time in her life that Mu Yu felt the pain of hunger. She touched her whole body without any money.
Mu Wuyu looked helplessly at the steaming bun opposite him. She was so hungry. She really wanted to eat something and warm her body. This would not make her feet cramped even if she was so cold.
"Husband, look at the young man across the street from the opposite side. He looks so thin and weak. I see that he has been standing there for a while and has been staring at us. I think he must be very hungry, and he probably has no money on him." Li, a middle-aged woman in the bun shop, said to the middle-aged man who was rolling noodles while adding wood to his hand.
The middle-aged man Li Quan looked at her eyes and indeed looked at the man standing opposite the street with a young man beating his companion standing there, his body trembling with coldness: "It's probably like this."
"Husband, I'll give him a few buns. Who doesn't have a time to get frost or get tired of it? Anyway, a few buns are nothing to us. It's a handful of them." Li said as he stood up, wiped his hands with a wet cloth and walked to the side of the newly released bag cage to get a few buns.
Li Quan kept making a fuss in his hand: "Madam, what you said is that we are not that bad anyway. Otherwise, if you bring people here to eat, how can you not have hot water if you eat buns? Since you are a good person, do it to the end, don't you think?"
Li also made some sense when he heard this. He put down the bun in his hand, "You are right, then I'll go there now."
"Well, by the way, you should be careful and don't be a bad person anymore." Li Quan reminded him with some concern that it's nothing to do good deeds, and it would be bad if he gets into trouble.
Li nodded, "Well, I know, it's not a problem. The young man looks only in his teenage years. Although he can't see what he looks like, he doesn't look like a bad person." As she said that, she walked over.
Mu Yu stomped hard, because the frozen cramped feet were also getting better at this time. She stepped forward and was about to leave. As soon as she took two steps, a woman's voice came from behind, "Little Master, Little Master, Little Master, Little Master, wait..."
Mu Yu looked around and saw that she was the only one here, and she was wearing a man's clothes. Was she calling her?
She turned around and saw a man wearing a white apron walking towards her. At a glance, she knew that it was the person from the bun shop: "Auntie, are you calling me?"
Mu Yu couldn't help but soften his voice when he saw the other person's kindness.
Li looked at Mu Yuyu with a kind look on his face, "Yeah, I'm calling you." The young man looked so handsome, like a girl, "That's right, I'm the owner of the bun shop opposite. A stove of buns has just been steamed in our store. I think you have been standing here for a long time, and there are few shops open in the cold winter. You must still eat them, go to our store to have some."
Taking something? Mu Yu choked unconsciously, and then she shook her head embarrassedly when she thought of her shortness of money, "Thank you for your kindness, no need. I, I'm not hungry."
Mrs. Li smiled lovingly, "Go, we'll treat you to eat."
Please? Mu Yu looked at the woman in front of him in a slight shock. Does this mean that she will give her food for free?
Seeing that Mu Wuyu was uncertain, Li said, "Let's go, you don't need money. People will inevitably encounter some difficulties. I will definitely not be able to help with the rest. It's okay to invite you to have a hot meal." As he said that, he had already grabbed Mu Wuyu's hand intimately, "Look at your hands being frozen, go and go eat something with the aunt."
Mu Yu hates getting close to strangers, and even more hating contact with strangers. However, the hand holding her hand was so warm, and he followed her step by step towards the faint candlelight, the closer he got to the warmth in his body.
Mu Yu entered the store, and the middle-aged man who was rolling noodles looked up and smiled friendly at Mu Yu, "Come on? Look, your face is purple with cold, so drink a cup of hot water to warm your body."
Li took Mu Yuyu to the table, "Sit down, I'll get you buns and water." After that, he started to arrange it, but after a while, he took a basket of buns and placed them in front of Mu Yuyu, and there was a bowl of steaming water, "Drink a little water to warm your stomach first."
Mu Yu nodded subconsciously, then took the hot water, blew lightly and gently put his mouth away. The hot water swallowed the throat, and a warm feeling swept the whole body. Mu Yu couldn't help but drink another sip, and the woman kindly pushed the buns in front of Mu Yuyu, "This is the first bun in our family today, and it just happened to give us a taste of how it tastes."
Mu Yu took the bun and took a bite.
"How is it?" Li's face always had a faint smile.
Mu Yu nodded vigorously, "It's delicious, delicious, really delicious!"
"If you eat more, eat more, look at your weight." The child was so delicate. He didn't see clearly when it was dark outside just now. Then he looked carefully and really looked handsome. However, this young man should not look like an ordinary person. With this temperament, he was not ordinary people. He was so hungry that he was still so elegant when eating, without any sound.
Mu Yu ate three buns in a row, drank a bowl of water and finally felt that he had come alive.
She looked up and smiled at Li and apologized, "Auntie, thank you."
Li was slightly stunned by her smile. This kid is too handsome. This smile is like a fairy... Oh, no, this is a young man, but... she still feels like a fairy.
"No, no thanks."
Mu Yu felt a little guilty: "I'm sorry, I don't have any money on me." It turned out that one day, she wouldn't even get the silver for a few buns.
At this time, Li Quan had already wrapped the second furnace of buns on the stove. He walked over and looked at Mu Yu and said cheerfully, "No money, it's just a few buns. Young Master, I said you're full of three? Don't be too polite, eat when you're full."
Li got up and walked aside to add some fire to the stove.
"Yeah, I'm full." Mu Yuyu said sincerely, "Uncle, the buns at my aunt are so delicious, with thin skin and fresh meat, and big. I'm already a little full of three."
Li Quan looked proud, "This is natural. Just this street, who doesn't know that our buns are the best."
Li walked over with a small package in his hand: "Look at you, Wang Po, are boasting about melons," and said that, handing the small package to Mu Yu: "Give it, I don't know where you are going. The journey is not far. I have brought you some buns to fill your hunger when you are hungry."
Mu Yu quickly got up and refused, "No, aunt. I will be able to find my friend soon and I will have money."
Li pushed the bun in front of Mu Yuyu again, "Hold it, what if there is a need, a few buns are not worth much."
"Hold it, don't you say that our buns are delicious, so just keep them. You can't buy our buns elsewhere." Li Quan also advised.
Mu Yu accepted the warm package with great affection: "Uncle, aunt, thank you, I...I..."
She has always been vigilant and alienated to strangers. When she suddenly received such help, she didn't know what to say. She seemed to have become accustomed to suspicion, fighting and mutual harm between people. Such help to strangers without asking for anything in return made her a little incapable of showing off.
Li waved his hand indifferently, "There is nothing to thank for. By the way, genius is just dawning, do you want to sit here again?"
Mu Yu shook his head, "No, I want to find my friend as soon as possible. They will be worried when they find out that I am missing."
Li Quan responded with understanding: "I am indeed worried, so you have to go back soon."
Mu Yu looked at the two of them deeply, "Uncle, aunt, thank you for your buns, I will repay you."
"You little boy, just a few buns, what can you repay? It's not bright yet in the cold winter, so be careful." Li said with concern.
"Well, I'll leave first, uncle, aunt." Holding the package in my hand, Mu Yu bent over and bowed to the two of them and left the bun shop. When he walked to the door, he looked up at the door of the bun shop, "Li Ji Bao shop".
Since her rebirth, she has only given her good people to her. She doesn't care whether the people who have nothing to do with her will die or live. But these two people made her feel that there are such kind people in this world who are willing to lend a helping hand to strangers in need.
Such a kind person deserves her reward.
Mu Yu would never have thought that the two people's thoughts of kindness towards her would become their disaster in a long, long time. Her reward was to push them to the fuse of danger.
*******************************************************************************************************
Seeing Feng Yumo running desperately in front of him, he knocked on the door of the inn one by one, asking about the whereabouts of Mu Yuyu. All of them, except for drinking some water under his suppression, the rice was not over. He was completely emptying his body. He couldn't feel the pain because of the painkiller, but his pale face could not be blocked.
"Yu Mo, Yu Mo..." Mo Zhan thought of quickly walking to Feng Yu Mo's side, stopping him from knocking on the door of an inn, "Stop knocking, it's going to dawn after a while, so it's better to ask when it's dawn."
Feng Yumo immediately refused, "No, if you have more time, the little fox will be more dangerous." He raised his hand and prepared to knock on the door.
Mo Zhan reached out to stop him again, "Yu Mo, you have been looking for a whole lot. Even if you are not injured, you can't stand it. Look, there is a bag shop not far away that has already opened. Let's go eat some food first, and it will be bright on the day after the food is finished. Then, it will be easier to search carefully.
Feng Yumo was about to refuse again, and Mo Zhan said in advance: "Even if you are not hungry, we still have to eat. The four of us accompanied you all night, and we were tired and hungry. Besides, it doesn't take too much time to have breakfast."
Feng Yumo looked back at Feng Ying. Li Yang and Wuqing all had red eyes. After thinking about it, Mo Zhan said that no matter how anxious he was, he could not be anxious at this moment. "Okay, let's go eat something first before continuing to look for it."
The five people walked to the bun shop, and Li from the bun shop hurriedly greeted him, "Five guests, do you eat buns?"
Mo Zhan nodded, walked into the bun shop first and sat down at a table: "Boss, let us have twenty buns first, and then we will have a bowl of hot tea."
"Okay, please wait a moment, and you'll come later." Li said and went to get the buns. It was a rare thing to have such a big business so early. As expected, good people still get good rewards.
After a while, Li brought the buns and water. Feng Yumo found that what he gave him was ginger soup. He looked up in confusion: "I didn't want ginger soup."
Li smiled, "This guest official, I saw that you looked bad and looked like you were going to get sick. It just so happened that our store had ginger soup for keeping cold, so I brought you a bowl."
"Thank you." Feng Yumo nodded in understanding and thanked him.
"You don't have to be polite, then you can use it first, I won't disturb you. Just call me if you have anything." Li said enthusiastically.
Feng Yumo responded with a slight "happiness" and then Li turned around and walked to the wooden table beside him to continue to make the unpacked buns.
She told Li Quan, who was making buns beside her, "Husband, these five people don't look like ordinary people, they all look extraordinary." After so many years of business, they still have these eyesight.
Li Quan chuckled, "You woman know that you are talking about this. No matter where you come from, we will just treat you well. If you don't move faster, it will be dawn."
Li looked back at Feng Yumo and the others, but his hands didn't stop. What day is this? Some big shots that are rare in the store came to the store.
Mo Zhan picked up a bun and took a bite, and couldn't help but praise: "Well, it's so delicious, thin skin and fresh meat, you guys try it quickly."
Feng Ying, Li Yang and Wuqing ate without hesitation. There was an unwritten rule between them. In such a situation outside, there was no need to take into account the so-called etiquette between the monarch and the ministers.
The four of them were eating and drinking, but Feng Yumo held the bun in his hand for a long time without taking a bite. Mo Zhan said helplessly, "Feng Yumo, you know your body now more than anyone else. I don't advise you to rest in the inn and have given up a lot, but at least, cherish your body a little."
Feng Yumo did not answer, but just silently picked up the chopsticks and started eating buns.
Mo Zhan was very satisfied with Feng Yumo's performance, as long as he was willing to eat.
Li kept looking back while wrapping the bun. Li Quan touched her, "What are you looking at? People thought you were sick."
Li didn't care about his words, "The cultivation of these people is really good. They look extremely tired and hungry. The guest with a pale face as white as paper seems to be about to fall down at any time, but you see that they have no sound at all when they eat, unlike those people who usually have louder voices."
Li Quan couldn't help but look back and responded, "This is true, the food is really elegant."
After Feng Yumo and the other two ordered twenty buns, the few people finished eating. At this time, it was already bright. After Mo Zhan checked out, he bought dozens of more buns for this bun to bring, so that he could eat when he was hungry.
Li took the silver given by Mo Zhan and said a little embarrassedly: "Customer, see if there is any broken silver in your body. The shop just opened today, and there are no broken silver in it."
"No need to find it. Your buns are so delicious, we have made a profit today." Mo Zhan said as he walked out of the bun shop.
"Celebrity, guest..." Li wanted to call people, but those buns were not worth a fortune no matter how much they counted. There were too many of them. But those people ignored her screams and left very quickly.
Li Quan walked to Li's face and said, "Madam, what's wrong?"
Li handed the silver to him, "Look, this was given to him by someone just now."
Li Quanwei was surprised, "So many?"
"Yes, we didn't find any money, but the guest official said he didn't need to find it anymore, so he left it and ran away." Li was still a little worried, "This is too much, it's almost as much as we earned in two days."
Li Quan looked at Yinzi: "Forget it, just collect it. Anyway, we didn't steal it or rob it. This is earned openly, don't you think?"
Li thought about it and felt that what Li Quan said made sense, "Then keep it." Unconsciously, he looked back at the five people who had already walked away. He just heard that they were looking for someone. The young master seemed to say that he was looking for a friend, and the one they didn't know was the young master.
Thinking of her, she shook her head again, what was she thinking about here? There was no such coincidence in this matter.
