"Bang bang bang!"

"Get up! Hurry!"

"What time has it been and you're still sleeping!"

Early in the morning, Mu Qinghuan knocked on Gu Sinian's door.

Although the two of them didn't get along for a long time in Langya Mountain, they had experienced life and death together. Mu Qinghuan seemed to regard Gu Sinian as one of his own and was familiar with him.

No, the car from Langzhou to take Mu Qinghuan home hasn't arrived yet, so Chen Hongxin arranged for Gu Sinian to take care of her in the past two days. Young people, it's easier to talk together.

However, Mu Qinghuan was still wearing rough linen clothes, with her hair tied up in a bun, and dressed like a teenager. Her identity as a daughter must be concealed, and this was the least suspicious outfit.

Anyway, within a few days, the young lady didn’t say anything.

"Hey, where is the person?"

After taking pictures for a long time, no one responded, so Mu Qinghuan lay on the edge of the door and peered in, furtive.

"Hey, what are you doing!"

"Ouch!"

The sudden cry from behind startled her, and Mu Qinghuan turned around in surprise:

"So you're not in the house."

Gu Sinian was wearing an earthy yellow singlet with a belt around his waist. His upper body was already wet with sweat. He frowned and said:

"You don't care whether I'm in the house or not.

But what are you going to do, being sneaky? Could it be that you want to break into a house? "

"Bah! This girl doesn't care about your things."

Mu Qinghuan responded tit for tat, but when she smelled the smell of sweat, she subconsciously covered her mouth and nose:

"It's so early in the morning, why are you sweating all over?"

"It stinks like hell! It stinks like hell!"

"I woke up early and just ran around the county office a few times to pass the time."

Gu Sinian replied sarcastically, it was indeed a bit indecent to stink in front of girls.

In fact, after discovering that he had an amazing physique and was good at boxing and kicking, Gu Sinian had already begun to exercise deliberately. Whenever he had time, he would run a few laps every morning, hide in the yard and practice boxing alone.

Because he clearly knows that in this era, fists are as important as brains.

There is kingly law here, but there is also law of the jungle!

"How many laps should you run? You really have too much strength and no place to use it."

Mu Qinghuan put his hands on his waist and said:

"Hurry up and go out with me for a walk. It's too busy to stay in the house."

"Wandering around? Why are you wandering around again?"

Gu Sinian shouted angrily:

"Are there not many people wandering around in the past two days? Fengchuan County is a big place, and you have already visited it all!

No, no, no, I want to rest today! "

I wonder if this eldest lady was under too strict supervision by Mu Bie in Langzhou. When she arrived in Fengchuan County, she ran out all day and had fun. She was not tired from morning to night. Even Gu Sinian Even the followers who were in good health were scared.

It seems that women love shopping, no matter what era they are in.

"What are you doing, not happy?"

Mu Qinghuan said with a straight face:

"It's okay if you don't go, then I'll go find Grandpa Chen, and I'll tell you..."

"Hey, hey, I'm afraid of you, why don't I go?"

Gu Sinian said with a grimace:

"Let me take a shower first, and then we go!"

These past few days have been amazing. In order to let Gu Sinian accompany Mu Qinghuan, Chen Hongxin handed over all the official duties of the county government to others. Is it possible that he really asked the county magistrate to accompany this aunt to go shopping?

"Why don't you take a shower?"

Mu Qinghuan ignored that he was still covered in sweat and grabbed Gu Sinian's wrist:

"Let's go now! That trap trap in the west of the city is quite fun. Let's go there today!"

"Hey, aunt, please slow down!"

"Slow down!"



Mu Qinghuan dragged the reluctant Gu Sinian all the way to the alley in the west of the city, where there was a trap stall.

The so-called traps are dozens of objects neatly placed on the ground, including various toys, food, and household items.

A necklace made of a copper plate and two bamboo strips, you can throw it away from a distance, and you can take away whichever one is in the collar. It is exactly the same as a modern street stall.

The stall owner was a skinny man, with a warm smile always on his face. He was smiling but not smiling. Gu Sinian always felt that he was not a good person.

"Oh, you two are here again!"

As soon as the two people appeared, the stall owner immediately approached with a smile:

"How many hoops do you plan to play today? You ask, and I will get you a hoop right away, and you will take everything in the hoop!

Hehe~"

The stall owner's happy eyes made Gu Sinian feel very uncomfortable, as if he was looking at two fat sheep.

Because Mu Qinghuan came here several times in the past two days and almost couldn't get anything, which cost Gu Sinian a lot of money, but in the eyes of the stall owner, they were big customers who gave away money.

"Ten laps first!"

Mu Qinghuan excitedly patted Gu Sinian on the shoulder:

"Pay, pay!"

Gu Sinian reluctantly took out a few coins from his pocket and handed them to the stall owner. He still owed Jiang Yufeng a few taels of silver, and he didn't know if it would take years and months to pay them back.

This Mr. Gu is good at everything, but he is a bit poor, and his monthly allowance is barely enough for food.

"Thank you, sir!"

"Here, let me draw a circle for you. I hope you will win!"

Mu Qinghuan took the hoop from the stall owner and started throwing it away without saying a word.

One, two, three...

The circle failed, and every shot was missed.

Gu Sinian's face became darker and darker, and the stall owner's raised corners of his mouth almost reached the base of his ears.

The scene has been like this these past few days, and Mu Qinghuan has not made any progress at all.

"Oh, missed again!"

After the last circle in his hand fell to the ground, Mu Qinghuan looked at Gu Sinian with some frustration.

"Alas~"

Gu Sinian sighed and took out a few more coins from his arms and handed them to the stall owner.

"Hey, hey, don't be discouraged, you will definitely get it again!"

The stall owner looked at the copper plate in his hand and became very happy, wishing that Mu Qinghuan would play with it from morning till dusk.

One, two, three...

A few more coins that made Gu Sinian's heart bleed.

However, this round cannot be said to be fruitless. Mu Qinghuan picked up a pair of cloth shoes, which were relatively clean and solid and could be worn by ordinary people, but the young lady did not even look at them.

She has no shortage of these things, she likes weird gadgets.

Gu Sinian muttered:

“Really talented and playful~”

"What, what did you say?"

Mu Qinghuan turned her head to look at him blankly.

"No, it's nothing."

Gu Sinian trembled and looked at Mu Qinghuan who had empty hands and quickly changed the topic:

"It's over? Let's go when it's over."

Gu Sinian didn't want to stay in this place for a moment. If he stayed any longer, he would really be penniless.

"No, I don't want to leave!"

Mu Qinghuan shook his head gloomily:

"I haven't caught it yet. If I don't, I won't leave today!"

Gu Sinian shuddered subconsciously. This was going to destroy all the coins in his pocket.

Mu Qinghuan suddenly raised his head and said with interest:

"Hey, how about you set me up and just patronize me?

Maybe I can get it if I switch to yours? "

"Me? I won't do it."

Gu Sinian refused on the spot:

"I'm here to accompany you. If you don't want to play with me, why should I play? If you don't want to play, just leave and go shopping elsewhere."

"Hey, let's have fun. What if we get caught?"

"If you don't play, it's a waste of money, isn't it?"

The two of them were talking to each other in a flirtatious manner.

The face of the stall owner next to him gradually became stiff, because in his eyes, these were two men.

Two men!

Could it be these two people? ? ?

Under the strange look in the stall owner's eyes, Gu Sinian finally agreed to play by himself, on the condition that he hit two circles and leave, and stop making noises.

"Come on, shopkeeper, ten more rounds!"

Gu Sinian waved his hand and handed out another five copper coins.

"Okay!"

As soon as he saw the money earned, the stall owner showed a bright smile again:

"Your Majesty, you are indeed very generous! Let's see, we are all regular customers, I will give you two more laps!"

Mu Qinghuan's eyes lit up:

"Thank you, shopkeeper!"

"Haha, you're welcome, thank you for nothing. Hahaha!"

The stall owner seemed to have figured out that no matter how many times he gave these two people, it would be in vain.

Gu Sinian opened his posture and asked eagerly:

"Which one to use?"

"That, that little windmill!"

Mu Qinghuan pointed to the front right. She had been eyeing the small windmill for a long time. Several pieces of paper were spinning back and forth in the air.

"Okay~"

"Hey!"

Without saying a word, Gu Sinian took out the hoop, drew a beautiful arc in the air, and then landed steadily.

"Bang~"

The loop made of bamboo strips just fell on the windmill.

"Wow! Hit! Hit! Hit!"

Mu Qinghuan, who was a little depressed just now, suddenly became excited:

"I can't tell! It's pretty awesome!"

"Come again, come again!"

"Which one to use?"

"that!"

"boom!"

"Wow! Hit again! Amazing!"

"Take that, that candied haws! I happen to be hungry!"

"Aren't you going to take two and leave?"

"Hey, isn't this just a lucky break? Hurry up and get your lost money back!

Why are you talking so much, keep throwing it away, there are still so many rounds anyway, let’s talk after throwing it away. "

"Okay, okay~"

"boom!"

Hit again!

At first, the stall owner thought that Gu Sinian was a blind cat and a fool, and he rarely caught one and didn't take it seriously. But as he went on, things became more and more wrong, and he was almost certain to hit the target.

If this continues, how much money will I have to lose today?

The stall owner's face became darker and darker, and the eyes he looked at the two men were no longer as kind as at the beginning.

"There is one last circle left, which one do you want to use?"

Gu Sinian's interest continued to rise. In fact, he had never played with this thing much, but he found that he had just enough control over the strength to hit it no matter what he threw.

"that!"

Mu Qinghuan pointed to the farthest point and said:

"That hairpin looks good!"

There is a simple wooden box at the far end, with a hairpin lying quietly inside. It doesn't look like a rare item, but it has some flaws, and the workmanship cannot be said to be exquisite.

But for such a stall with a ring, this is already the best thing. Otherwise, how could it be placed as far as possible?

As soon as he heard that Gu Sinian was going to pull this trick, the stall owner suddenly became excited and prayed that he wouldn't succeed.

If he got caught in this trap, he would have been working in vain for most of the month.

"Okay, that's it!"

Gu Sinian held his breath and concentrated, stretched his posture again, and shouted:

"I lost it!"

The three of them stared at the hoop until it landed firmly.

"boom!"

"yeah!"

"I hit it! Hahaha!"

"I really got it!"

Mu Qinghuan jumped up excitedly on the spot, danced around Gu Sinian, and laughed, all the dullness he had felt just now was gone.

The things on the street stalls may not be valuable, but they are obtained by their own skills. Only Mu Qinghuan understands the joy of it.

Some people were happy and some were sad, but they didn't realize that the stall owner's eyes had completely turned cold.
