At this moment, Agui, who had been stunned for a long time, finally came to his senses. With a whoosh, he rushed in front of Le Duo'er and snatched Duo'er's piccolo off.
"Duo'er, don't treat your benefactor like this!" Agui pointed at Duo'er and scolded her harshly, her whole body shaking with anger.
"Brother, he is a Han!" Duo'er pointed at Lu Heng and said jumping to her feet.
"He is the benefactor of our village!" Agui's face darkened, and he stared at his sister and said every word.
"Brother, but" A'duo still wanted to argue, turned around, and stared at Lu Heng fiercely. When he saw the scholar, he was dazed and frightened, patting his own heart. Seeing him looking at him, the scholar hurriedly sat upright again.
He coughed, waved to himself, and smiled hypocritically.
A'duo glanced at him bitterly, then turned around and looked at his elder brother, his eyes full of confusion and anger.
"Sister, do you know where these things come from?" Agui pulled his sister to the hill-like cloth rice, bent down and took out a shining silver jewelry from it, and shook it in front of Aduo.
Shaking: "Also, do you know where these things come from?"
Seeing A'duo's doubtful look, A'gui stuffed the things into his backpack, straightened up, pointed at Lu Heng, and said gratefully: "These are all given to us by our benefactor!"
"He? This Han?" A'duo turned around and looked at the scholar who was waving to him and smiling at him. After giving him a contemptuous look, he turned around and looked at his brother, confused.
asked: "How could he be a poor scholar?"
On the side, when A Duo said the word scholar, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the ethnic antagonism has transformed into a gap between the rich and the poor. The results are very gratifying!
Although the little girl's eyes were still contemptuous, it was no longer hostile.
But I don’t seem to be very poor!
Lu Heng lowered his head and took a look at his attire. Well, although the clothes were a little old and the shoes were a little rough, he still had a lot of money in his pocket. The two hundred taels of silver that the leather goods dealer gave him, plus the two hundred taels of silver he had received from the previous
The yamen received an interest-free and indefinite loan, so I had at least 500 in banknotes with me.
I was considered a rich man, so why did I become a poor scholar?
He was muttering to himself here, but in front of him, Agui had already pulled his sister and talked about what happened these days. When he heard his brother say that it was this scholar who single-handedly brought so many good things to Miao Village, Aduo's eyes
There was a clear flash of surprise in it.
She turned her head, and then looked at Lu Heng with that suspicious look. In Lu Heng's kind smile, the little girl shook her head blankly and curled her lips and said: "It looks like a string of strings.
He looks like a high official!"
After hearing this, Lu Heng's kind smile suddenly froze. Seeing that the little girl was so innocent, she rolled her eyes at him stupidly. The corner of Lu Heng's mouth twitched for a while, and he suppressed the slander he was full of.
However, seeing the little girl's quirky and clever way of turning her eyes around, Lu Heng smiled inwardly and felt that this little young girl was becoming more and more cute.
Although this little girl is full of distrust in herself, she is obviously much smarter than Agui.
After Agui talked about it and told the whole thing, the doubts on Aduo's face finally eased a lot. While listening to Agui's words, she turned her head and looked at the scholar.
In the end, she reluctantly believed what her brother said. However, she did not think that there was no reason why the scholar helped her brother so much.
After listening to Agui's words, Duo'er stepped forward, circled around Lu Heng, then stood in front of Lu Heng, raised her little head, looked at Lu Heng, thought for a while, and asked: "
Your name is Lu Heng?"
Lu Heng smiled and nodded slightly.
"Then you are a senior official of the imperial court?" When A'duo asked this question, although she pretended to be calm and indifferent, Lu Heng still saw a flash of nervousness in her bright eyes.
Lu Heng smiled, shook his head and said, "No!"
Seeing the little girl yelling, her expression obviously relaxed, Lu Heng coughed, thought for a while, and said, "However, I know a few people who are high officials! One of them is your Lord Governor!"
After saying this, Lu Heng looked at Duo'er funny to see how she would react.
However, what surprised Lu Heng was that Duo'er didn't react at all after hearing this. After thinking about it for a while, she raised her head and met Lu Heng's surprised gaze.
His face turned slightly red, and he glared at Lu Heng, then turned around, walked to his brother, and asked in a low voice.
Lu Heng stood there and clearly heard Duo'er's words. She seemed to be asking questions such as "What kind of official is Zhizhou? Is it as big as the county magistrate? Also, who is Zhizhou and what is his name?"
Although Agui traveled far away, he had never met any of these high officials, let alone who was younger and who was older. Facing his sister's question, he was stunned for a long time and could not say a complete sentence.
Looking at the two confused brothers and sisters, Lu Heng couldn't help but feel like he was punched on the cotton wool. He smiled feebly in his heart and secretly despised Zhang Wenshan.
Hehe, Old Man Zhang, it seems that you, the Zhizhou, are not doing very well. A third-grade Zhizhou can be regarded as a feudal official, but he doesn’t even have any reputation! Failure!
At the end, Bu A'duo finally understood some truth. She walked over, glanced at Lu Heng, curled her lips, and said disdainfully: "Isn't he just a person who cooks for high officials? What a high official!"
Cooking for high officials? How do you say that?
Lu Heng was a little stunned, looking at the look of contempt and disdain on the little sister's face, and was confused.
"Didn't you say that? Zhizhou, the one who sets up the pot and cooks the porridge is the cook!" The girl thought that she understood it very well, and explained to Lu Heng the ways of officialdom very seriously.
Such a serious look almost made Lu Heng think that Zhang Wenshan had really started working as a chef here.
Seeing this little girl's confident look, Lu Heng could only smile bitterly and feel helpless.
Ha, it turns out that Zhizhou can explain it like this!
"Okay, I see you have been deceived too. It's so miserable. Tonight, you will rest in our village for the night, and go back early tomorrow morning! This Yizhou is not the huāhuā world of you Han people, it is very dangerous!"
A'duo gave Lu Heng a kind word of advice, turned around, and skipped towards the village ahead.
Lu Heng looked at the girl's figure that looked like a butterfly in a flower. He was stunned for a moment. He was confused in his heart and suddenly felt that he was really funny. He remembered that just now he looked so mighty and proud, but he never thought that in the end he was actually
Thinking about this result, he couldn't help laughing and burst into laughter.
"Let's go!" Seeing Agui looking at him apologetically, Lu Heng shrugged his nose, put his hands behind his back, and walked down the mountain.
After entering the village, they saw a group of Miao villagers holding torches standing in front of the gate. Aduo was holding the arm of an old man with a white beard and pointing at him, muttering.
He said something to the old man.
The old man frowned and listened to A'duo's words. Occasionally he raised his head to look at the scholar, and then shook his head.
It wasn't until A'duo pulled Agui over and put out all the things in the backpack that the old man with the white beard reluctantly nodded.
The old man coughed, stepped forward, stroked his chest with one hand, and gave Lu Heng a slight salute: "Guests from afar, welcome to Miao Village!"
Lu Heng smiled and returned the courtesy: "You are so polite, old man! I apologize for disturbing you late at night!"
After taking a deep look at Lu Heng, the old man nodded and waved his hand behind him, signaling the villagers to make way.
Then the old man stood aside, pointed to the road behind him, and said to Lu Heng: "Guest, please!"
"Please, old man!" Lu Heng smiled slightly, turned his hand towards the old man, and said calmly.
After entering the Miao Village, the old man directly invited Lu Heng to a stilted building located in the middle of the village, which was quite passable. After he dismissed the others, he looked at Lu Heng indifferently and was about to speak,
But he found that Agui was still standing behind Lu Heng with his head down, refusing to leave.
"Agui, get out too!" The old man glared at Agui angrily, seeming to blame him for not knowing the importance of bringing a stranger into the Miao village.
"But, big boss!" Agui raised his head, looked at the old man, and stopped talking.
"Get out!" The big leader snorted, waved his hand, and kicked Agui out.
After seeing Agui reluctantly walking out, the big boss stood up, closed the door, and sat in front of Lu Heng, smoking a hookah.
Occasionally, I raised my head and looked at the Han man in front of me. I saw that he was still in a daze, sitting there, tasting the food with relish. The big leader was a little surprised.
You know, these foods seem to be highly poisonous to outsiders.
Centipedes, scorpions, poisonous insects... you name it.
But this frail scholar, after seeing these things, was just stunned for a moment, and then he sat down casually and started to taste them.
He didn't know that Lu Heng had visited Miao territory in his previous life. Moreover, he also knew that the specialty of the Miao family was these foods that looked extremely terrifying to outsiders.
However, although it looks ugly, it tastes very good!
So, Lu Heng sat down with a stern expression, lowered his head, and started eating.
And he ate it with gusto.
The big boss sitting opposite, smoking a hookah, originally wanted to wait for the scholar to lose patience and speak first. However, after smoking a bag of cigarettes, the scholar didn't even respond to the inquiry. He was still very polite.
Eat casually.
Hey, if I hadn’t spoken first, these things would have been eaten soon!
The big leader's eyelids trembled, and he finally put down the hookah in his hand. He looked at Lu Heng, coughed slightly, and said, "What are the plans for the guests to come to my Miao house?"
Seeing that the old man finally couldn't stand it any longer, Lu Heng stopped what he was doing, clapped his hands, glanced at the old man, smiled and said, "Look for someone!"@.
