The Regent's Sweetheart

Chapter 257 The Best Wine

"Buying wine? Your master?" Little Niqian slowed down cleaning up the stall, then shook his head and said, "If your master wants to buy wine, he should buy wine from Zuixianlou, which has the best wine in the whole capital."

When Xuemei heard this, she was shaking her head and wanted to say something, when she heard a shout.

"stop!"

Looking back, there are two Janissaries!
Before Xuemei could react, Little Niqiu looked startled, hugged the cloth, then stretched out his hand to grab Xuemei's wrist, and ran into the alley behind him!

"Hey! What are you doing!" Xuemei was suddenly grabbed and ran by the little loach, and her face turned pale with fright.

He ran all the way to the back alley, and stopped after turning several turns.

Xuemei was already out of breath from exhaustion, she supported the stone pier next to her to rest her breath.

Little Loach looked behind him, and he was relieved to see that no one was chasing him.

"Eh?" Xuemei greeted Little Niqiu, who turned her head to look at her and said, "Why are you running? The imperial guards are not chasing you, are they?"

When asked this question, Little Loach was stunned, rolled his eyes, and said, "I am a small businessman, how can I give them the money? So they chased me for money."

Then he shook his head and complained: "Recently, the imperial court has exploited us little people too badly. Some of them can't pay the money, and everyone in the family has to support the old and the young."

"Oh~" Xuemei nodded half-understood, then felt strange again, and suddenly looked at Little Loach with a puzzled expression on her face.

Little Niqiu was stunned by Xuemei's round eyes, and said a little guilty: "Why are you looking at me? Is there a flower on my face?"

Then subconsciously touched his cheek.

Xuemei frowned suspiciously and said, "Didn't you tell me you were an orphan? Where did you come from?"

She remembered that when she first met Xiao Niqian, it was because she was listening to a book in a teahouse, and the storyteller left halfway through the story, saying that she wanted to know what happened next, and let me tell you next time.

He didn't know when this person would come next time, but Xiao Nixiu happened to be next to the teahouse and told her that he knew what was going on, so she paid the money and listened to Xiao Nixiu's talk.

Although the preface and the afterword were inconsistent, it sounded like a story, and when she became familiar with it later, she took the initiative to ask Xiao Niqiu to tell the story, and she could listen to it all at once, which was much better than the teahouse storyteller.

Later, Xiao Niqiu told her some of his whereabouts in the world, saying that he was lonely and helpless since he was a child, and he also claimed to be a person in the capital. Although she always felt that Xiao Niqiu was bragging, but last time Li Maonian's residence was found by Xiao Niqiu for her.

So now I also believe that Little Loach is a person from the rivers and lakes.

Little Loach admitted: "I'm an orphan, but someone picked me up, otherwise I'm so big for nothing?"

"Oh ~ adoptive father!" Xuemei understood now, and thought of buying wine just now, so she said: "I want to buy wine from you, and sell it to the wine store."

After all, she also saw how good the business was just now, and it was snatched away in a while.

When Xiao Niqian heard it, he was stunned. After digesting the news Xuemei said, he waved his hands and said, "You have to find the winery for the source of the wine. How can I exchange so much?"

"Huh? Redeem?"

Knowing that his mouth was full, Little Niqiu hurriedly said: "I said a bunch, the liquor store must have a bunch of wine, I don't have so much." After saying that, don't turn your head and touch your nose.

Hearing the rather urgent tone, Xuemei thought that Little Niqian was angry, she curled her lips and said, "I want to take care of your business, my master is very generous."

After hearing this, Little Loach murmured: "The more aggressive you are, the more you can't provoke them."
