Chapter 83 She is with me

Although the town is small, it is still prosperous.

 Yan Song dismounted, turned around and ordered with a stern face: "Listen up, everyone, give it an hour, one person from each family will go.

 If you dare to escape, you will be caught and have your legs broken, and the rest of the family will also be punished! Do you hear me clearly? ?"

 Meng Mengliang ran to Yan Ruyu and said, "Sister Yan, you can go with me. If you don't know the road well, Yan Song will punish you when you come back. It doesn't matter if you come with me sooner or later."

 Before Yan Ruyu answered, Huo Changhe said: "She's with me. I'm familiar with this place and won't come back late."

 Meng Mengliang was dissatisfied: "I'm an official. Only when Sister Yan is with me can I be protected."

 "Why can't Mr. Ma come over if we are protected?" Huo Changhe said as if Smiling but not smiling, "Meng Chaiguan, Master Ma told you that in order to prevent Yan Song from becoming more dissatisfied with Madam and the others, he tried his best to avoid suspicion."

 Meng Mengliang was surprised: "How do you know?"

 "Guess."

 Ma Liyu was indeed I said this to prevent Yan Ruyu and the others from attracting too much attention. If they took too much care of them, they would inevitably make other prisoners jealous.

 Not to mention Yan Song.

 Therefore, Meng Mengliang was only occasionally asked to run errands and send messages.

 Yan Ruyu said to Meng Mengliang: "Master Ma is right. Don't worry, I'm fine. I don't have many things to buy. I can do it myself."

 Meng Mengliang took out two gold leaves and stuffed them into her hands without any explanation: "Then Take this and buy whatever you want."

 He turned and ran away, and Yan Ruyu handed the gold leaf to the eldest lady for safekeeping.

 These are all debts of gratitude.

 Carrying a small bag, Yan Ruyu entered the city with others.

 Huo Changhe wanted to be with her, but she refused.

 She first found a ready-made clothing store and bought a few sets of clothes for everyone in the family. She didn't want to be gorgeous, but wanted to be comfortable.

 Also bring a few pairs of shoes and socks, as these wear out too quickly when walking long distances.

 After changing her clothes, Yan Ruyu went out of the clothing store to buy something else.

 After agreeing to buy buns for Huo Changheng, she walked towards the place selling food. Fortunately, the town was not big, and they were all businesses related to people's livelihood, so she could find them quickly.

 It has just arrived at noon, and the streets are lively, fragrant, and full of fireworks for buying and selling.

 Yan Ruyu's tense heart slowly relaxed. Speaking of which, this was her first time shopping after traveling through time.

 The market was not much different from what she had imagined, so she couldn't help but slow down and buy meat buns, snacks, snacks, and two things that children might like along the way.

 Unconsciously, I walked through the snack street and arrived at the market selling sundries.

 There are farm tools, live poultry, aquatic products and the like.

 Yan Ruyu suddenly remembered that the newly appeared piece of land in the space could still be used to grow something, so why not buy some seeds, chickens, ducks, etc.

 In the past, living animals could not be placed in the space, and the black pheasant was an exception. What if there would be more and more exceptions in the future? Anyway, it won't go bad if you leave it alone. Even if it still doesn't work, it's still good to eat it later.

 As an agent, Yan Ruyu is always accustomed to making thorough plans and keeping reserves at hand, so she doesn't panic.

 She bought a few chickens, ducks and geese, and there was also a fish seller, so she also bought a few.

 The guy selling fish fry was very polite: "Where do you live? Do you want to send it to you?"

 "No," Yan Ruyu had noticed when she came over that the teahouse at the intersection of the snack street had a back alley and was quite secluded.

 After shopping, I carried my shopping with my hands full. When I arrived near the teahouse, I turned around and went in. When I saw no one was around, I quickly put the chickens and ducks in first and put the fry into the pond.

 There were no surprises. The chickens and ducks didn't move at all. They were frozen as if dead.

 Exit the space, walk out of the alley, and walk back along the original road, silently counting that I have bought everything I want to buy, and it is almost time to go back.

 Not far behind, there was the sound of rapid footsteps, mixed with a strong wind.

 "Stop, don't run!"

 Before she could turn around, someone wanted to hug her from behind. She turned around and sideways, and the person who wanted to hug her jumped away.

 It turned out to be a child.

 Before Yan Ruyu could see what he looked like, the people chasing him had already arrived.

 "You little bastard, you dare to steal our things, you are so tired of living!"

 Several adult men dressed in shorts and short clothes rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward to beat him.

 The little boy held his head, huddled on the ground, and shouted: "Help, help!"

 Many people were watching and pointing. The guy who beat him stopped and said angrily: "Don't meddle in other people's business. You're a thief! Shouldn't you be beaten?"

 The onlookers whispered. Yan Ruyu lowered her eyes and looked at the little boy. He was two or three years older than Huo Changheng. His hair was disheveled and his face looked like a little cat. It's really hard to see clearly. There is only one pair of eyes, black and white, clear and bright.

 His clothes were in tatters, his shoes were missing, and his feet were bare.

 Yan Ruyu had no intention of being kind. This was a child, not a pheasant that he could just carry away casually.

 As he turned around and was about to leave, someone in the crowd shouted angrily: "Stop! What can such a young child steal? How could he do something so heavy-handed?"

 People were looking for prestige. Yan Ruyu took a look and saw that he was an acquaintance - he had just sold seedlings. boss.

 His shop is not far from here, so he probably heard the noise and came to see the excitement.

 The boss was in his thirties, tall, lean but somewhat muscular. As soon as he came out, the imposing manner of the other waiters dropped by half.

 "The buns he stole were just made by us. We haven't sold them yet. We caught them when we came up! How can we sell the others?"

 The boss sneered and threw a bunch of copper coins: "I thought they were something big, but they were just a few. It's just a bun. Take it! I paid for it!"

 The guy took the money and mumbled away.

 The boss stepped forward and helped the little boy up: "Are you okay?"

 The little boy shook his head and the buns in his arms were squashed.

 "Where do you live? I'll take you back."

 "I...I have no place to live. My house was ransacked and my parents died. I was so hungry that I stole the buns. I have never stolen money. I am not a bad boy. "

 Is it being copied?" The boss lowered his voice and turned to the crowd, "Okay, let's all leave."

 Then he asked the little boy, "Why are you being copied?"

 The little boy shook his head. : "I don't know. My father asked me to escape before he died. The other people seemed to have been taken away and I don't know where they went."

 "Exile?"

 The little boy's eyes flashed and he nodded: "Yes."

 Yan Ruyu Her hearing was sensitive and she could hear clearly. She turned to leave and saw Huo Changhe beside her.

 Huo Changhe just bought something from a little peddler who carried burdens. It was a plain silver hairpin inlaid with red garnets. Red garnets are not expensive, and the workmanship is not as exquisite as those in the Beijing jewelry store. But when Huo Changhe saw it, he Want to buy it.

 Just after paying, I heard the commotion and saw Yan Ruyu.

 "Have you bought it?"

 "Okay, how about you?" Yan Ruyu asked.

 "I'm going to buy some food. I don't need anything else. Do you want to go back?"

 "Go back."

 The two of them walked back together, and no one mentioned anything about the child just now.

 When I arrived at the entrance of the town, I saw Meng Mengliang boredly leaning on a small cart to bask in the sun.

 "Sister Yan!" When he saw Yan Ruyu, he ran over like a shot of chicken blood, took the things from Yan Ruyu's hand, and put them on the car.

 Returning to the team and giving Huo Changheng some food, the little guy was very happy.

 Yan Ruyu glanced at the man in the third room beside him, who was sitting there sulking.
