Chapter 425 End of joy, parting without words
425
The dishes were not served, and the banquet had not yet started. The old and young men on Xuefeng drank the prepared hot tea while watching the people next to them busy, and some deliberately sent the prepared raw meat to the snow dogs.
After finishing their work, they are all watching the cooks and clerks who are busy washing and stir-frying all kinds of strange dishes that have never been seen before. Some young men are already busy delivering dishes or something. They must have had a drink earlier.
The two teams met for a short time to meet and chat. There was an old county magistrate who didn't know what happened, and several merchants waiting to negotiate could not talk about the matter at all except for the time of greeting.
I don't know who ran outside the tent and couldn't help asking for a drink. Karen, who was a little worried in the tent, heard that the wine and dishes were almost ready. She ordered and immediately opened the banquet.
The two groups of people did not negotiate good things, so they went to the table to continue. So those businessmen made up a table at this moment and continued this unfinished business.
At the banquet, the wine tube was full of dishes, and they were tired of eating meat all the way, but they were not interested.
As soon as he came to the table, the county magistrate at the table with Thatcher asked impatiently, "Housekeeper, where is Miss Song of Xuanbing Palace? Why don't you come out for a drink with everyone tonight?
Azacher smiled and said, "Aren't I negotiating with you? The situation on the big boss is not very clear."
A young man next to Xuefeng held a large bowl of water wine and turned his head and said, "The two big bosses told people to send wine and dishes to the house."
The county magistrate said, "This, I haven't done anything yet."
A fat man with a white and rosy face asked with a smile, "What does the county official have to do?" Did you like the heroine in Xuanbing Palace and deliberately choose a good daughter-in-law for her son?
The county magistrate blushed and shouted angrily, "Go. Don't guess. Get busy with your own business. The height of Xuanbing Palace is also a small official like us who can be flamped?
Secretly, the county magistrate shook his head and sighed that this was really not easy to do.
"That's right, let's continue to drink and don't think about this out of place. Housekeeper Aizar, I would like to give you a toast. When there is a chance, please let us meet the mysterious boss behind your scenes.
Thatcher said with a wry smile, "I haven't seen our big boss myself in the past two years, but the big boss is interested in meeting the big bosses and will definitely send you a message. Let's just drink as much as we can now."
......
Wine can help the fun and drink a lot. These dozens of tables crowded more than a hundred people and slowly competed for wine. In the end, the shouting became louder and louder, and the sound shocked everyone's excitement far away.
There was also the rise of drinking. They stood up and sang loudly, and their songs were rough and melodious, which attracted many people to clap their hands and cheer them up.
is different from the happy outside. In the slightly quiet tent, Karen and Sigong actively listened to the song outside the tent, and their expression was a little lonely.
Karen drank a glass of wine, looked up at the fourth princess, and asked, "Sister, do you think they will really come tonight?"
The fourth princess shook her head slowly and said with a wry smile, "I think... Alas, who knows? These slippery guys want to leave and don't come to give a letter. It's really hateful!"
Karian said quietly, "Is it because she is afraid of saying goodbye to us, so she won't come at all?"
The fourth princess shook her head, but said no words, holding a glass of wine and didn't know what she was thinking.
"The outside is lively." Karen shook her head with a bitter smile, raised her white jade hand, wiped the tears that flowed from the corners of her eyes, turned her head and said, "Sister, if they don't come tonight, I want to go home and wait for my sister to go back to the mountain."
Karen's home is not far from Xuanbing Peak, not on this road. If you want to go home, you have to take a detour from this town. That is to say, in order to accompany Xiaoguding and others, Karen gave up her plan to go home first and followed her all the way.
The fourth princess was sterilously, looked up at Karen, who turned her head, felt the faint sadness of parting, and asked seriously, "Senior sister, do you really want to go there like this? Isn't that too lonely and lonely? Well, how about sending a letter back home first, accompanying the sister to the capital first, and then accompanying the sister to visit her uncle and aunt?
Karian held an empty cup in her hand and turned her head and didn't look back. She didn't know what she was thinking. Suddenly, she turned her face and smiled like before, still with some new tears. She shook her head and forced a smile and said, "Sister, I don't know what to do, but I'm just a little confused and don't know what to do."
Suddenly, she raised her head again, with tears in her hands, and asked again pitifully, "Sister, do you think they will really come again tonight?"
The fourth princess's heart was also sour, and tears rolled around her eyes. She sighed, "The banquet in the world is inevitable. We can meet again tonight, but it is not what we can predict. Sister, since you don't know where to go, why don't you go to the capital with your sister, dilute your mind, and go back home after having fun, which can make your parents happier. Your appearance has been known by your parents. Don't you be sad?
The tears in Karen's eyes surged even more fiercely, and she simply stopped wiping them. Her snow-white face instantly hung on two sparkling "brooks".
couldn't hold on any longer. Karen got up and jumped into the arms of the fourth princess, sobbing in a low voice, and a strong sadness permeated this simple tent.
The fourth princess's own tears were uncontrollably followed. The cold feeling made her face wet. She gently patted Karen in her arms and comforted her, "Senior sister, don't be too sad. If they come back and let them see you like this, don't laugh to death."
Karen muttered in a low voice, "That slippery, treacherous and heartless little devil is not so kind. They will definitely not come back."
The sunset leaves early, the treetops on the moon, the bonfires are lit, and the joyful shouts of wine still continue. It seems that this night, there is no intention to send people to guard the goods.
Shortly after drinking, two or three carriages came to carry the goods and transported the agreed goods into the city.
Without the order of the big boss, at this kind of drunken banquet, Kete and his son spontaneously left more snacks at the banquet, and the wine tasted it lightly.
From time to time, they both glanced at the drunks full of tables, and occasionally looked at the snow dogs guarded outside the tent. Seeing that everything was normal, their hearts were slightly wider.
At this time, a handyman came to him, holding two letters in his hand and went straight to him.
The little guy asked with a smile, "Is this Uncle Cotter?"
Cote looked at him. He was small and skinny, and his appearance was very ordinary and had no characteristics, but he was a little slippery and clever. Looking at the letter in his hand, he nodded and said, "I am, what's the matter?"
The little man said, "This letter was sent by someone who asked the uncle to send it."
Ke nodded and took the two letters, one for the big housekeeper Isaac, and the other for the Xuanbing Palace. This thicker one only wrote the word "Xuanbing" on the cover, but did not specify who to give it to.
Kete thanked him, and after a long time, he remembered that he should ask who was delivering the letter, but he had not seen the little guy for a long time.
"This man, like the big boss behind the scenes, is really weird!"
Kete remembered the figure of the little guy leaving, shook his head and guessed, and sent the letter to the housekeeper Isa, who was still busy discussing the deal at the wine table.
After that, he walked outside the tent without lifting the curtain and whispered, "Miss Kalian, someone sent a letter."
Cote called Karen a girl, but did not call her a big boss, because she vaguely felt that she was like a big boss at all, and wanted to call her a girl. Maybe there are some other intentions that others don't know.
"The little devil has finally sent a letter!"
Karen's body was thrilled and jumped up from the arms of the fourth princess. She didn't care about wiping the tears on her face. The wind generally got out of the tent. Before Kete could see the white shadow in her eyes, she felt that the cold wind hit her face and the letter in her hand was gone.
That's awesome!
Cote was a little scared and instinctively stepped back two steps. He looked at the tent in front of him in a daze, shook his head, and turned to the fire beside the fire.
Turning his head, he almost fell to the ground in fear, because there was suddenly an extra person beside him, and his son also didn't know when he would come to him.
Towang still looked at the tent and asked, "Dad, what did you just do?"
"You boy!" Cotter patted his frightened heart and stared at him, "Send a letter. Take it easy tonight. Don't get too drunk. These goods still need to be guarded. Those kids don't look very useful. Let's hang more snacks.
The boy in Cotter's mouth are the helpers and guards gathered by Isaac, as well as some temporary martial arts hunters and pharmacists. Tonight, they don't care whether they are drunk or have to watch the night.
Towang answered, but his eyes still looked at the sealed tent, and still did not move for a long time, like a mud and stone carving standing there.
In the big envelope, there are two thick letters with different handwriting. Obviously, they are written by two people. One is more round and the other is more dignified, but there is no chicken claw-like font.
Karen pulled out a large letter paper, with tears on her face and eagerly read it, hoping that they might mention it in the letter and meet her somewhere.
The more I read, the colder my heart became, and the more happy I ran away, and I became depressed.
"It's so annoying! He didn't come to meet us, but asked us to help them do this and that. Who does he think he is? I won't listen to them!"
Reading, constantly cursing. Tears couldn't help but rise again, and the momentum became more and more turbulent. Tears fell like pearls on the letter paper and soaked a large area.
The fourth princess leaned her head and watched with Kalian. Liu Mei was slightly locked, her face was full of sadness, her eyes were full of tears, and her hands kept wiping her hands, and said annoidly, "Let's go. At this time, she deliberately came to send a letter. Isn't this to harm people?"
