Chapter 32 Brother Mo's Courtesy II

Walking into the courtyard, Mo Zi called Xiao Yi to come out.

"Lvju, your ability to transform a woman into a man is getting better and better." Xiaoyi looked up and down with round eyes.

Luju didn't dare to take credit, so she pointed at Mo Zi and said, "It was Mo Zi who taught well in the beginning."

Mo Zi was originally a soldier. He seldom put on makeup and didn't know how to do it. However, the TV programs were rich and colorful. He had seen a few foreign movies about makeup and face-changing techniques. He remembered some of them and told Lu Ju. Lu Ju was very good at combing her hair with makeup.

With one hand, I thought about it again and kept testing it on her face, and the effect was indeed good.

It's not the so-called advanced disguise technique, it's just to make her face look more neutral, wear men's clothes, and walk on the road, so that people won't stare at her because of her female appearance. Moreover, she never wants to hide it from everyone, but

When walking around outside, women can dress up as men to reduce unnecessary trouble.

Not only her, Qiu Sanniang and Bai He also often dress up in men's clothing when they go out. Although businessmen who don't mind discussing business with Qiu Sanniang know that they are women, if they leave this group, the appearance of men's clothing will not attract too much attention from others.

And disgust. After all, women often show off their faces, which is not something worthy of praise for ladies.

"Mo Zi, you go early and come back early." After Bai He said that, he led Lu Ju into Qiu Sanniang's room.

Mo Zi walked to the foot of the wall, and outside was the hill behind the Guanyin Hall of Cinian Temple. At this moment, pilgrims usually stay near the Guanyin Hall. There is a Zizhai Hall on the hill where you can enjoy the scenery, drink tea and eat vegetarian meals, so you have to wait around noon.

There will be more talents.

Xiaoyi easily climbed up the wall, looked around at the people, and then turned back to take Mo Zi out of the wall.

The two have collaborated in this way many times and have developed a tacit understanding.

How could Mrs. Zhang, who never left the house, have expected it? She thought that Qiu Sanniang, who was trapped in the small courtyard, was under her control. She even knew how many times Qiu Sanniang's girls went out to buy snacks.

In fact, walking around through the gate is just a pretense. The real walking is not far from Qiu Sanniang's remote courtyard, on top of the towering wall.

"I'm leaving." Mo Zi pulled up his wrinkled clothes.

"Three hundred taels of silver...Miss, don't blame her...if she doesn't trust you, she won't let you go out alone." Xiaoyi said awkwardly with his back to Mo Zi, and ran into the woods of Qiu Shan.

Know which tree to climb again.

Mo Zi smiled and went down the path in the opposite direction. He passed through the Guanyin Hall and walked out of the main entrance of Cinian Temple among the gradually increasing number of female pilgrims. Since some of the female pilgrims were accompanied by male servants and servants, her appearance was not unexpected.

What's more, the way she walks with her head held high and her green sleeves fluttering in the wind, there is no pretense at all. Who would have thought that she is a woman.

Two moments further down from the main entrance of Cinian Temple, you will reach Cinian Temple at the foot of the mountain. This temple and nunnery are full of incense, making the market in the eastern suburbs of Luozhou lively. Many wealthy families choose to buy property here.

There are many products, such as antiques, silks, gold, silver, jade, and calligraphy and ink shops in the vast square area. In Shannan, the fields are fertile, and farmers in neighboring suburban counties often choose fresh fruits and vegetables to sell, and soon a modern vegetable market was formed.

A small street. There is also a livelihood area where rice, oil and salt, medicine shops, medical halls, snack shops, restaurants and homes are located.

The best thing is that there is the Luo River five miles to the north in the eastern suburbs. The river leads to the border with South Germany. Luozhou is a place where merchants from both countries must pass. Trade is prosperous and there are many wealthy merchants, big and small.

The leader is famous for his wealth.

During the Chinese New Year, Mo Zi accompanied Qiu Sanniang to Cinian Temple once, and the things she helped Sanniang couldn't do without Luohe, so she was very familiar with this Dongcheng market town and was not afraid of getting lost.

Wearing an old blue shirt, she walked through the streets in the morning light. Some enthusiastic shopkeepers called Brother Mo and asked her how she was doing. She answered them one by one with a smile and walked leisurely.

I finally stopped in front of a bean shop, and saw that the business there was good, and five or six tables were almost full. Those coolie passers-by with patched clothes, a big bowl of hot soy milk or rice, gnawing on green onion pancakes, blackened

The Banjiang is as satisfying as eating all the delicacies in the world.

Sitting on a simple bench by the roadside, Mo Zi shouted to the busy figure with his back to her, "A bowl of soy milk."

"Okay." The man hurriedly accepted the guest, and then he roughly heard whose voice it was. After turning around to see clearly, he grinned widely, scratched his head, and ran over with a smile, "Brother Mo, you haven't been here for a long time.

"

"I've been a little busy lately." Mo Zi looked at the dark-skinned big man and said, "Brother Gao, business is good."

"Since the few things you taught me to do, I have been doing business from morning to night." Gao Zhuang was very grateful.

Gao Zhuang originally only made soy milk, tofu, and tofu. One day, Mo Zi was thirsty and wanted something sweet, so he went into his shop. There were no customers at that time, and Gao Zhuang was about to close the shop. When he saw that there were customers, he just wanted to

A bowl of soy milk was not too much trouble, so I just heated up a pot for her. Seeing that this person was quite honest, Mo Zi chatted for a few words. He mentioned that red and mung beans, carrots, millet, and peanuts were cooked together, which was low-cost and filling.

Whole-grain rice. From cold tofu, tofu stuffed with meat over rice, to spicy tofu soup, he talked about a few tofu tricks that she loved but had never tasted here.

Gao Qiang was interested and asked again and again. It was the first time he tried whole-grain rice. His mother named it eight-treasure rice, which immediately attracted many customers. Later, a side dish soup with tofu as the main ingredient was added to the menu.

, is also very popular. Nowadays, business can be done from morning till night.

"I only know how to eat." Mo Zi saw that there were guests leaving and others coming in, "Go and get busy. Is your mother back from heaven?"

"I got home last night. I went to deliver a message to someone early in the morning. I'll be back soon. You can drink some milk and wait." After Gao Zhuang finished speaking, he went back to bring her a large bowl of soy milk and three or four plates of side dishes.

.

Mo Zi knew that it was the biggest bowl in his shop. But she couldn't refuse his kindness, so she had to sit there and drink and eat slowly.

When the sun was in the middle of the day, most of the soy milk in Haiwan was drunk. Looking at the guests who had no seats and had to squat on the ground, holding bowls and eating, and each of them occupied a square table, she wanted to come back another day.

"Brother Mo is here?" Gao Auntie returned home, and when she saw Mo Zi, she also beamed.

"Mom, Brother Mo has been waiting for you for more than half an hour." Gao Zhuang kept his hands on his hands.

"You kid, I've told you several times that if you want to find me, just go to the house and wait. We don't have the rules of a wealthy family. We don't enter the house when the master is not at home." Aunt Gao waved.

"Auntie, is this trip to Shangdu going well?" Mo Zi quickly stood up and walked to the back room with Aunt Gao.

The shop in the front, the room in the back, and many small shops are like this.

"It's okay. There are always one or two that are difficult to find, but if the price is lower, I'll give them to you. I won't lose or make a profit, forget it." Aunt Gao opened the door, and behind it was a small square courtyard with three rooms.
