Chapter 161: Melancholy

The carriage stayed at the door of Xue Pan's house for a while, not to mention a wealthy family, even ordinary people should come out and ask personally, but no one from Xue Pan's house has come out until now, which is too unreasonable.

Xiaodong looked back at Xiao Han's carriage, flipped his legs, turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to the stunned man who followed, and jumped up the steps in a few steps, first looked in from the gatehouse, there was no one in the house, so he returned to the gate and began to bang the door hard.

"Bang bang......" The heavy knock on the door was heard far away in the quiet alley.

After a few knocks on the door, I heard an impatient voice hurriedly coming from the door: "It's coming, who's coming, it's noon, let people sleep!" ”

As the sound fell, a crack opened in the middle of the door, and a man who looked like an old servant squinted through the crack in the door and looked out: "Who are you looking for?" ”

Xiaodong is still waiting for someone to come out to greet him, this has been waiting for a long time, just waiting for a servant and a gap the size of a finger, the anger immediately came up, this is a dog looking down on people, or treat us as robbers!

"Hey! You old man! Guests are coming! If you don't go out to greet you, is it because your leg is broken......"

Xiaodong opened his mouth and was about to scold, but Xiao Han hurriedly stopped him: "Xiaodong! Don't be rude! We're here to visit, not to find fault! ”

As he spoke, Xiao Han jumped down from the carriage, looked the old man inside the door up and down first, arched his hand slightly, and asked, "Excuse me, is this Miss Xue Pan's home?" ”

When the old man heard this, he opened the door a little wider, looked at the noble young man in front of him suspiciously, and said, "Exactly, I don't know ...... you."

"Under Xiao Han!"

"Bang ......"

The door slammed shut, leaving only the stunned and Xiaodong staring at each other, what's going on?

Outside the door, Xiao Han's heart seemed to sink as the door closed! Looking at the closed door, the meeting words that Xiao Han practiced along the way turned into a joke that was not funny at this moment!

Gritting his teeth, Xiao Han looked at the door in front of him, and said in a low voice, "Go knock on the door again!" ”

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

Xiaodong used enough strength to slam the door this time, until the door began to shake, and the voice of the old man just now came from inside: "Hey! Don't knock! Don't knock, knock again, and I'll report to the official! There are no guests in the Xue family today, where are you from, where are you going! ”

"No visitors! Hey, Master Hou, I don't see him seeing you! Wait until I tear down this door so that he can see it without seeing it! ”

The stunned man was furious when he heard this, and put the reins in his hand to the little lion's head, and he was going to go up to help Xiaodong tear down the door! It's just the other way around, Hou Ye deigned to be a big man, you didn't even let the door in, it's just too much of a deception! Yes, that's the word......

went up the steps, and was about to kick the door, but was unexpectedly pulled by Xiao Han.

At this time, Xiao Han's face was very pale, he grabbed the stunned man's shoulder, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Okay!" We're here to be guests, not robbers! People don't want to see us, let's not lose face here again, Xiaodong, stunned, go! ”

In the end, Tie Qing glanced at the two big characters of Xue Mansion with a blue face, Xiao Han didn't drag the mud and water, turned around and walked out, looking free and easy, but who knew that his heart was simply mixed, could it be that after just one night, he couldn't even see Xue Pan's face? !

When I came, I was in high spirits, and when I left, I was depressed.

Xiao Han wasn't even in the mood to get in the car, he lowered his head and walked back slowly, while Xiaodong and the stunned two glanced at each other, and hurriedly followed behind.

The atmosphere is weird and uncomfortable! Even the horse behind him seemed to notice this, and he didn't even hit his favorite snort, and was led away.

Walking out of the alley, there were more people outside, perhaps it was the noisy sound of the peddler's pawn that woke Xiao Han up, Xiao Han slowly looked up.

The surroundings are strange, strange places, strange people, and even the sky is a little gloomy, just like Xiao Han's mood at this time.

"Master Hou? Hou Ye? ”

"Huh?"

"Where are we going next?"

Xiao Dong saw that Xiao Han in front of him suddenly stopped, and after waiting for a long time, he didn't move again, so he had to follow carefully and asked.

Xiao Han's heart was empty at this time, as if he had lost something very important, and when he heard Xiaodong ask, he didn't know whether to go home or where to go for a while.

Seeing that Xiao Han was silent, Xiao Dong looked at Xiao Han's face and said cautiously: "Why don't you go to find someone, ask Miss Xue Pan?" Isn't something happening? Otherwise, Miss Xue Pan is such a good person, why don't you call Master Hou? ”

is the so-called the authorities are fascinated, and the bystanders are clear, because they care too much, so they will suffer from gains and losses, and Xiaodong's words are like a hole in Xiao Han's heart, just like the sun at this time, poking out half of his head in the dark clouds, and the sunshine will shine in front of Xiao Han!

"That's right, it's impossible, even if the Xue family doesn't see me, there's no reason why Xue Pan Xiaoai doesn't see me, as soon as that servant hears my name, it's like seeing a ghost, something must have happened here!"

Thinking about this clearly, Xiao Han, who had been standing for a long time, only felt that the strength of his body suddenly returned to his body, and the world around him began to come alive! Just where to find out the news?

There is a teahouse diagonally opposite, and the big Pan flag is swaying in the wind, swaying around, it seems to be like a bewitching woman, recruiting Xiao Han to go over.

Teahouses, as one of the oldest lines in China, can be seen in almost every prosperous city, and teahouses are not as quiet and indifferent as ordinary people think.

Talk about things, talk about the mountains, eat, take a break!

A teahouse almost covers a few hobbies of ordinary people in their spare time.

And the teahouse that Xiao Han saw, in terms of location, is not too far from Xue's Mansion, it is noon at this time, there are not many guests in the teahouse, the shopkeeper who has just finished his work is leaning on the counter and dozing, suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the door and stopped, and immediately made a clever move, put the towel on his shoulder, and quickly greeted him, before the person arrived, the voice passed first:

"Yo, the guest officer is here, the three of you have tea or dinner?"

"Drink tea! Don't put tea! Xiao Han looked at the teahouse and simply threw out two words.

“……”

So, the shopkeeper who came forward with Xi Zizi was almost choked to death by this sentence......

After so many years of running the hall, it is the first time I have seen such a customer, drinking tea without putting tea? Don't you even need to put water? So do you eat a cup or gnaw on a table? It's noon to entertain the master!

Xiao Er's face was a little cold at that time, and he was just about to ask, Guest officer, are you joking with the shop, a small bag was thrown head-on, and the startled Xiao Er subconsciously caught the small bag.

"Bang la la......" The movement of the copper coin collision came from the small bag in his hand, and the smile of the shopkeeper immediately bloomed like a flower, and he stuffed the small bag into his arms, and his just straight waist immediately bent down:

"Oh, little thanksgiving! Please take a seat, there is a private room on the second floor of the shop......"

Xiao Han looked at the furnishings in the store and said indifferently: "No, just find a clean place in this hall!" ”

"Okay, please go this way, the water will come soon, back hall, back hall! The best tea is a pot, no tea leaves are allowed!! ”

The more indifferent Xiao Han became, the more respectful the shopkeeper became, and led Xiao Han to a window position, Xiao Er shouted behind the counter with his throat, regardless of whether they could understand it or not, and then picked up the rag on his shoulder and wiped Xiao Han's seat clean, and almost wiped the ground out by the way!

Turtles and rich people are two completely different concepts!

However, Xiao Er is so eye-catching, and not everyone likes it! For example, Xiao Dong was a little unhappy when he saw Xiao Er's courteous appearance.

This kid is better than him! Will this work? Stretched out his hand and dragged the shopkeeper over, pointed to the door, and said to him: "Okay, don't wipe it, hurry up and feed the horse, go quickly, this master has something to ask you in a while!" ”

"Okay, please!" The shopkeeper was dragged over by Xiaodong, and he didn't like it at all! Instead, he smiled and made a gesture to a few people, and then ran quickly to the back room, knowing that he was going to get beans, and those who didn't know thought he was going to fight the fire.

After a while, the water was served, and Xiao Han didn't like tea, but he didn't like to drink sencha from the Tang Dynasty.

Good tea leaves are ground into minced pieces, and a bunch of messy things are added, and it is better to drink white water to relieve your teeth.

The tea was served, but the shopkeeper did not retreat, and was nodding and preparing to wait for these masters, although the bag of copper had not yet had time to be opened, but according to his experience, there were definitely no less than a hundred!

A few glasses of water can be exchanged for most of the day's turnover, and Xiao Er is more and more concerned about these uncles, and he can't even take care of the guests at the other table who want to add tea.

"Guest officer, if you have any orders, just say it~"

Tapping on the low table in front of him, Xiao Han groaned, and before he could think about how to ask, Xiao Dong immediately said to the shopkeeper with a long look: "That, my young master asked you something, you give me a truthful answer, don't talk nonsense, if you answer well, there is still a reward here!" ”

"Good! Just ask, I know it, and I will tell you everything! ”

It's obviously not the first time that Xiaoer has met such a person, and after listening to Xiaodong's words, the smile on his face became even bigger, what is the teahouse for? Drink tea and chat and brag! If you say that there is the fastest circulation of information, you can't think of a second place except for the teahouse!

"The Xue family in the alley over there, has there been anything recently?" Xiao Han knocked on the table and thought about it for a long time, but in the end he decided not to talk nonsense, and came up and asked him what he wanted to know most now.
