Chapter 153 Traces
"Hey, Shitou, why are you two here?"

In Yao Lincheng, in Yanzhi Lane, Bai opened the door and was very surprised to see Mei Shitou appear.

"Tui'er and I just went back a few days ago. I heard that auntie, you have moved to the city. Many of the vegetables you asked our family to take care of have grown, and the jasmine flowers have also bloomed. My grandma asked me to put these Vegetables and flowers will be brought to you on the way."

Mei Shitou chuckled. Bai was surprised and embarrassed when he heard this, and said, "I asked you to take care of my house, and I bothered you to deliver food...this, this..."

The alley was a bit narrow, so Mei Shitou's donkey cart stopped outside the alley. Mei Shitou led Bai Shi out. Mei Shitou had also been practicing a lot in the escort agency these days.

"Auntie, where is Aru? Why haven't I seen him now?"

"Aru was sent to a nearby elementary school by me. He can't get out of this place in Xiao Pi Monkey's house."

Mentioning her son, Mrs. Bai also said a few words with a smile. The two walked to the entrance of the alley and saw Cui'er sitting on the donkey cart. Ms. Bai stepped forward and expressed concern for Cui'er.

She glanced at the green leeks, round Chinese cabbage, and a handful of slender beans on the car. When Bai saw this, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

Although it was Bai's first time to grow vegetables, she had put a lot of effort into it. The vegetables looked so good-looking that it looked like her own small vegetable patch.

"Ah, why is there still a basket of eggs?"

Before the Lin family moved away, they had raised four chickens that were already old enough to lay eggs. Two of them were given to the Yuan family. Mrs. Mei took the initiative to buy them with money, but Lin Qin and Bai In the end, Mrs. Mei's money was confiscated. At that time, Bai just casually mentioned that if possible, she could eat some eggs in the future.

She also didn't expect that Mrs. Mei actually carried the stone to deliver the egg.

"Thank you grandma for me. I really bothered her. If you are free today, I will prepare a table for you in the evening. Aru misses you too."

Bai Shi invited Mei Shitou and Cui'er to come for dinner in the evening. Shitou remembered what he had heard recently and nodded in agreement.

When Lin Qin came back in the evening, he learned that Mei Shitou and his wife were here for dinner tonight. Looking at the newly planted jasmine flowers in the corner and the vegetables piled in the corner of the kitchen, he kept feeling in his heart that the Mei family was a great place. Honest people.

After Mei Shitou and his wife arrived, Lin Qin brought over a bottle of sake that he had bought a few days ago and had not yet opened.

The two men were drinking. Bai, Cui'er and Alu were all standing aside, drinking the sweet and sour plum drink that Bai had specially bought earlier.

The atmosphere among several people talking was very lively. Mei Shitou talked about his current job as an escort, and suddenly said: "I heard my master from the escort agency say..."

Mei Shitou had never drank much, but after one or two drinks, he was obviously a bit tongue-tied.

"say what?"

"Say..." Mei Shitou put his hands on the table, nodded his head, and said silently, "Said the Xirong soldiers might go south..."

As soon as he said these words, Lin Qin's eyes suddenly shrank, the hand holding the wine glass paused for a moment, and he poured the wine into his mouth with restraint, and then said: "It's nothing, your master doesn't know where he heard this." Come.”

"Really? Let me just say...Uncle Lin, you are also an official. You must know more than us ordinary people..."

Mei Shitou muttered, but he couldn't hear what he said behind him, but Lin Qin had already felt a storm in his heart.

On the north bank of the Xirong Tunbing River, he heard Shangguan say that every court meeting was always a quarrel.

Some officials said that they only need to send troops to defend along the river bank, while others said that taking the initiative to attack was normal. Some officials even felt that the "rebels" in the north of the river would not let them cross the river, so they could rest assured. But has this news spread to the public again?
"If this happens again, there is still somewhere we can run, hiccup~"

After the evening meal, Lin Qin sent the young couple out of his alley. When he turned back, he saw a hawker approaching him and said: "This official, do you want to buy some snacks? The best snacks are made today." "

"Well, get me two packs."

Lin Qin paid the money, took the snack in his hand, and after entering the alley, he took out the secret message sandwiched between the snack and quietly stuffed it into his sleeve...

···
"Well, this fruit is so delicious! Girl, where did you pick it from? I'll look for it next time too."

The finger-sized rose-red fruit is sweet and sour, with firm skin and juicy inside. Mei Qian gave a handful to the water chestnut.

One bite at a time, the crunchy texture made water chestnut express great appreciation for the small half basket of wild fruits that Mei Qian harvested during her trip!

They all go out to collect food. Why is her girl so good?
So Lingjiao also asked Mei Qian about this fruit, planning to find time for her to go out and pick some back later.

"No, there are only so many in total. It's a tree I don't recognize. I guess it was washed down by a landslide during the rain. The branches were dead when I saw the fruit."

No wonder!
This was a basket of thumb fruits that Mei Qian bought from the original plane of the orcs. It was midsummer, so Mei Qian remembered to take out this thing to eat.

She also wanted to take out the cheeky fruit that looked like a big watermelon, but thought it would be too conspicuous so she gave it up.

Thinking of the watermelon, Mei Qian didn't know if the seeds she sown on the fence of her garden in spring were ripe now.

The melons were in bloom when she left, and they should be edible by now if nothing else happened. Unfortunately, she didn't have the luck to eat, and she didn't even eat a bite of what she grew.

Thinking about it, Mei Qian ate another thumb fruit. At this moment, the hot temperature outside the cave was accompanied by the disturbing cicada cries, making Mei Qian's mood even worse.

"It's so hot. How can there be such damn weather?"

Mei Qian could feel the heat wave coming from outside while squatting at the entrance of the cave. After staring at the air for a long time, she could feel the slight "space distortion". The temperature was really ridiculously high.

No wonder Wang He had to change their working hours in the past few days, and all office hours were concentrated in the morning and evening.

"What? Sir, say it again!?"

When the weather was cool in the evening, Mei Qian went to Wang He's place. As soon as she arrived there, she was shocked by Wang He -

The Xirong soldiers entered the mountain.

"What's going on?"

"It seems that because the weather is too hot, some Xirong soldiers who are relatively close to Wuya Mountain want to go into the mountains to escape the heat. In the past few days, many spies in Changping's hands have seen those Xirong soldiers at the outermost edge, especially at noon when the weather is the hottest At that time, some Xirong soldiers came to the mountains to escape the summer heat.

After observing for several days, although they had no intention of going deeper, they were attracted by the prey running in front of them several times and wanted to go further into the mountain.

Maybe we will be discovered soon..."

Lin Qin wants to know where Mei Qian is~
Mei Qian is going to start recruiting Western soldiers_(:3 ∠)_
