Chapter 24 Two taels of silver
Erlang's little hand lifted Nangong Qi's clothes, and suddenly, the lines were swelling and purple in rows exposed. The man's heart trembled.
"Brother...!" Li Erlang's voice was crying again. "Let's go see the doctor!"
"No need." Nangong Qi tidied up his clothes. "Miscellaneous injury. It will be better in a few days."
He could feel that his tolerance was better than he thought.
Could it be because of power +2?
Li Erlang wanted to say something, but suddenly thought of something and closed his mouth again.
The afterglow of the sun gradually converged, and in the end there was only a blush in the sky.
"Here." Li Erlang jumped out of the donkey cart first. He stretched out his hand and prepared to support Nangong Qi. However, the Sishou walked over first and helped Nangong Qi down.
Standing in front of the door, Nangong Qi waved his hand. He could bear the pain.
Seeing this, the four old men turned around and moved the plaque down again.
This is a small courtyard with three rooms. At this time, the gate is open. There is a gatekeeper next to the gate, but there is no gatekeeper.
The inside is facing the living room and the door is also open.
Both sides are also wing rooms and bedrooms.
"The family was thieves!" Li Erlang realized at this time, and his face turned pale, "I was clearly locked when I left!"
"Do you want to report to the official?" Sisou was stunned for a moment and asked in a low voice.
Hearing the movement, a door next door came out. Seeing an old, a big and a young man, he shouted softly. "Li Family Dalang, I have something to say to you."
Nangong Qi walked over and bowed.
"Your family affairs are in charge of Feng's family. They seem to be looking for something. Others have never been in." The doorzi's voice was extremely low, "I have handled everything around me. It's useless to report to the official."
Nangong Qi nodded, "Thank you."
"No, I told you that it was also clear to you. By the way, he and I have two taels of silver and asked me to hand it over to you to buy the lock again."
Nangong Qi smiled playfully, reached out to take it, and then returned to his home.
At this time, Sisou was lighting a fire in the basin. When he saw Nangong Qi coming back, he explained, "Dalang, come out from there and enter the house and cross the fire. Get rid of bad luck."
"Thank you!" Nangong Qi smiled much sincerely this time.
Then take one step.
Around me, the four old men immediately sang: "When the wind is gone, the fire is prosperous! Good fortune comes, worship all directions!"
When Nangong Qi passed by, Li Erlang smiled and threw the brazier out. This meant that his bad luck was taken away together.
The three of them came to the living room and found that the room was in a mess. Clothes, bedding, and quilts were thrown everywhere, and books were scattered everywhere.
Li Erlang packed up the books on the ground one by one with heartache, while the Sishou put away the bedding with great eyesight.
After everything was done, the Sishou stood up and said goodbye.
The moon has risen at this time.
"It's still a little cold tonight. Why don't the Fourth Master rest here for a night?" Nangong Qi spoke out and tried to stay.
"It's okay! The little old man is resistant to freezing." The four old man smiled like the bark of the tree. "Besides, I'm here with a quilt. The donkey still wants to feed the grass, so I won't bother Dalang!"
After hearing this, Nangong Qi did not try to keep him. Instead, he handed over the two taels of silver he had just obtained.
"Thank you for helping me today. You can accept this money first and there will be a good report in the future."
However, the four old men danced like electric fans with their hands!
"It's not allowed to use it! Too much, too much!" He said while retreating. Seeing that Nangong Qi was going to hand it over, he simply put his sleeves in his hands and bent down and said, "Liu Xiucai has given the little old man trivial things. No need for Dalang to come out again. It's getting late, Dalang has a good rest, and the little old man will say goodbye!"
After saying that, he bowed his waist and bowed to Li Erlang, then walked out quickly. When he passed the door, he closed the door.
Nangong Qi took a few steps, but stopped again. Forget it, there is time to repay you in the future.
Li Erlang followed quickly to the door. Seeing that the door was closed, he thanked the door only. Then he heard the sound of a donkey cart going away and tied the door.
Back in the living room, Li Erlang sat next to the oil lamp, wanting to speak but stopping.
"What's wrong? Say something if you have something to do."
When Li Erlang heard Nangong Qi's question, hesitated and his face turned red.
"Brother, are you hungry?"
...
I'm not hungry, but I guess you're hungry!
Only then did Nangong Qi remember that the nine-year-old child was at home for a day and night. He probably didn’t eat much!
"I'll go and see what I have to eat." Nangong Qi glanced at Erlang's stomach.
"Okay!" Li Erlang was instantly excited, "I'll go and cook the pot."
Just so happened that Nangong Qi could not find the kitchen, so he followed the other party.
Opposite the concierge, the west room of the utility room was opened, but after Nangong Qi walked in, he found that Li Erlang had already started to burn.
Nangong Qi glanced around, two clay tanks pressed the lid, a few handfuls of unknown vegetables, and a small handful of green onions.
He walked over and opened the lid on the clay tank and found that one contained several bowls of brown rice and the other was half a tank of water.
"Cook some rice." I didn't see any other staple food. "I'll stir-fry some food later."
In the iron pot, Li Erlang added some water, Nangong Qi looked at it, then quickly washed half a bowl of rice and put it in.
"Resume the firewood slowly, and the fire is smaller." It can be seen that Li Erlang doesn't cook the pot many times. Sometimes he will pound some black smoke. "Whisk it with a fire stick."
Seeing Li Erlang's serious appearance, Nangong Qi did not disturb him, but picked vegetables.
This is a kind of leaf similar to spinach. However, it is light green and the leaves are thinner. Nangong Qi doesn't know what it is called.
After washing the vegetables, he cut a piece of green onion leaves - as a abandoned house living alone. Sometimes, if you want to be nicer to your stomach, you must learn to cook.
Soon, the rice in the pot was cooked. Nangong Qi waited for a while before he put it all out. Then he poured some rapeseed oil and made a stir-fried small vegetables. Fortunately, he had soy sauce at home.
While eating, Li Erlang looked at Nangong Qi from time to time.
"What's wrong?" Nangong Qi took a bite of the rice. It was slightly rough, and some rice had a little rice husk. However, the rice was cooked and moderately dry.
Li Erlang picked up the dish again and swallowed it hard before saying, "Brother has improved a lot in cooking."
......
"So several times, the rice my brother made was half-cooked and the vegetables were all muddy."
......
"This is the first time since Mrs. Li left!"
"Sister Li?" Nangong Qi did not care about the other party's words, but put down the bowls and chopsticks.
"Sister Li is really good to us." Li Erlang said vaguely while eating. "Our family owes her half a year's salary, and I have only left us recently."
"What a pity that I always follow at home. Hey..." Li Erlang sighed, and the food in his hand suddenly stopped being fragrant.
I missed him, Erlang, who lived in a rich and mediocre manner for nine years, but why did he suddenly become a simple meal?
"The life in the future will be good." Nangong Qi glanced at the other party lightly. To be honest, Li Erlang's foundation is pretty good. He should be so hungry that he was a little discolored recently and looked a little thin.
After dinner, Li Erlang cleaned up the dishes and Nangong Qize walked to the east bedroom alone. When he cleaned up in the evening, he saw that his room was Dongwoo.
Lying on the bed, Nangong Qi closed his eyes and carefully sorted out the harvest of the whole day today.
