The newly arrived tea is fragrant. It’s not a good tea, but it tastes sweet and quenches your thirst.

But she didn’t know if it was her own imagination, but Qin Yao always felt that the new pot of tea smelled different from the one she had just broken.

 The broken pot has a stronger flavor, while the new pot has a lighter flavor.

Liu Ji suddenly approached and complained: "Madam, you said that the aroma of the two pots of tea is different. The previous pot was not the old tea that had been left overnight, right?"

Qin Yao raised her eyebrows, it was really possible.

Seeing the wife's expression of approval, Liu Ji immediately pouted at the old woman's busy back and cursed in a low voice: "You old man is doing these little tricks. If it weren't for the fact that there is nowhere else to go in this wilderness, I wouldn't even want to come to her shabby tea place." stall!”

Looking left and right, they were the only family in the shed, and he added: "No wonder there is no business."

"You are very noisy." Qin Yao glanced at Liu Ji warningly. She almost got splashed with tea. She just said a few words and kept chattering.

  Liu Ji: "." Yes, yes, I've disturbed your delicate ears!

Yin Le has checked the Qingtuan balls, and they don’t smell rancid. They are all fresh. Except for the old lady’s way of making Qingtuan balls, she pinched them without washing her hands and it made her a little nauseous.

But old ladies in the countryside are all like this. We have seen many of them in the Liu family village. Qin Yao, who has a stutter, is not so particular. She sees the children eating happily and lets them go.

 Don't tell me, this salty green dumpling looks strange, but it tastes pretty good. It's a hundred times more delicious than the fish dumplings I had at Ping'an Inn the day before yesterday.

“Sir, where did you come from?”

I don’t know when the old lady suddenly appeared next to me, smiling and asking questions as if making small talk.

Just in time to hit the muzzle of the gun, Liu Ji had just been stopped by his mother-in-law and was not allowed to speak. He took a breath and immediately rolled his eyes, "It's none of your business, you don't care where I got the shot from!"

It seems that she didn't expect that he, who looked so talented and gentle, would actually say such vulgar words. The old lady was visibly stunned for a moment, and she looked a little pitiful for being bullied.

 Liu Ji snorted, showing no sympathy. He was asking for it himself. Just go away if you know what's interesting to you. Go and do what you have to do. Don't bother me.

However, instead of leaving because of his bad words, the old woman bowed down to apologize to him, saying that she just thought that the children in their family were so lively and lively, which reminded her of her grandson who had died young, so she asked a few more questions.

 Liu Ji: "Oh, let's go after asking."

Seeing the old woman's eyes turn red, Da Lang couldn't bear it anymore and gently tugged on his father's sleeve, "Dad, respect the old and love the young. Please be polite to my mother-in-law."

Liu Ji seemed to have heard some big joke. He pointed directly at the red-eyed old woman who was educating his stupid son, and said in a tone that seemed to be low but could be heard by others:

“Dalang, listen to what dad is telling you. If someone makes you feel uncomfortable, it’s her problem. We don’t need to be polite to her.”

Dalang was speechless. What his father said seemed to be right, but he felt that something was not right, so he could only wave to the old woman and said, "Mother-in-law, please go and do your business."

 “I’m not busy, I just like people to join in the fun.” The old woman’s eyes were red and she tried her best to smile happily.

Liu Ji looked awkward. If Qin Yao hadn't glared at her, he would have wanted to yell at this blind old lady again: "Get out!" Stop pretending to be pitiful about his father.

Seemingly aware of Liu Ji's family status, the old woman turned to Qin Yao and Yin Le to speak.

“My wife married a good husband, and all the children she gave birth to are outstanding in appearance. This is the first time in my whole life, old lady, that I have seen such lovely and smart children.”

"How do you like your husband?" Qin Yao raised her eyes and glanced at Liu Ji. The person who just said something evil to the old lady now showed a sullen look and her eyebrows were about to fly because of the compliment.

Qin Yao once said, "If we just talk about appearance, it can be considered a good word."

This answer was obviously not what the mother-in-law wanted, so she tried again: "The young masters and ladies don't look like ladies at all."

Qin Yao raised her eyebrows, isn't this obvious? Suddenly, I felt that it was okay for Liu Jijeng to be angry with the old lady just now. Yin Le saw the master's impatience and waved his hand, "Mother-in-law, please step back."

She still didn’t retreat, staring at the dagger on Qin Yao’s waist, reaching out to touch it as if out of curiosity.

This was so offensive. Qin Yao's eyes instantly turned cold and she glanced at her.

The old lady retracted her hand and said, "Madam carries a dagger with her. She must be a martial arts practitioner, right?"

Liu Ji really couldn't bear it anymore. Before Qin Yao could speak, he slapped the table and stood up and shouted: "Ask me, old woman, you talk too much. Get out of here! Don't disturb my peace!"

At this time, the pity on the old lady's face could no longer be stretched, and she showed a bit of anger, and her mouth was full of resentment:

"Sir, why are you angry at me, an old lady? It's just a kind question."

“By the way, I would like to remind you, Madam, that there are often dealers around here. You have four such handsome young men and young ladies, so you’d better be careful!”

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Liu Ji always felt that the old woman's words "be careful" after that, which she said through gritted teeth, didn't sound like a reminder, but more like a threat.

 Fortunately, the old lady is finally gone.

Qin Yao, who originally wanted to take a rest, lost her mood and asked everyone: "Have you eaten? Let's go after eating."

Yin Le and the four children nodded and had already finished eating.

 Liu Ji couldn't wait even more. He was annoyed just by looking at this **** old woman.

Moreover, he also knew that he had spoken harshly, and if he continued to stay here, she might become angry because she was afraid that someone would poison him with a handful of arsenic.

 So, it’s better to leave quickly.

 “What a letdown!”

Even five miles out of the tea shed, Liu Ji was still full of resentment. A good rest was disturbed by a strange old woman, and the more I thought about it, the angrier I became.

"Help!"

 A child's cry for help suddenly came from the woods beside the road.

Qin Yao immediately raised her hand, and Yin Le behind him hurriedly stopped the carriage.

 Liu Ji looked around nervously, "Who? Who shouted for help?"

 “Save me, save me—”

The sound came from far to near, and with a sudden swish, a half-grown boy emerged from the forest and grass. His clothes were messy and dirty, as if he had fallen down and got up again while running away.

When the boy saw the people on the roadside, his eyes burst out with a strong desire for survival. He hurriedly ran towards Qin Yao and Liu Ji, shouting as he ran: "Madam, help me, there is a kidnapper who wants to take me back!"

The couple were shocked. The old lady at the tea shed had just said that there were many people selling people here, and now they met her after walking five miles away?

 But a fierce and strong man with a rope rushed out from the mountain forest, and they could no longer think about it.

Qin Yao got off her horse and grabbed the escaped child behind her.

Liu Ji immediately shouted: "You little traitor, get out of here! If you dare to come near again, I will immediately arrest you and send you to the police, and I will kill you all!" (End of Chapter)
