The daily life of a talented young husband who travels through a book and suffers from cruelty

Chapter 135
Pei Zhiqi opened the door and came out of the room, only to find many people standing at the door.

He closed the door and turned to look at everyone.

"Hello brother, hello sister-in-law, chef Wang, Xiaodouzi, hello everyone, and..."

Pei Zhiqi bowed and greeted one by one, and the yamen servant who led the way for him was also waiting outside the door for some reason.

The sky has already darkened, and the sound of firecrackers set off by the people can still be heard occasionally in the city.

It's New Year's Eve.

"Brother-in-law, how did you get here? When I saw you, I thought I was suffering from hysteria because of old eyesight," Li Xiaoxin said first.

"It's a long story, I'll tell my brother slowly," Pei Zhiqi said with a smile.

"How is Jingde Mountain now?" Li Xiaoxin asked again.

"Brother, don't worry, Jingde Mountain is safe now."

"That's good, that's good," Li Xiaoxin sighed.

"How is Xiaodao? Doesn't she have a fever?" Cook Wang asked concerned.

Pei Zhiqi shook his head: "No, it's just that the lady's illness needs to be consulted with brother. I don't know if it is serious? Is there a good way to treat it?"

Li Xiaoxin replied with his arms on his hips: "The best way to heal is to rest more, take medicine well, and keep warm. If the nutrition is better, you will recover faster. Thanks to the help of the yamen servant brother, Cook Wang I took a few guys to buy some vegetables, meat, melons and fruits, and simply set up a New Year’s Eve dinner in the kitchen, and cooked chicken soup and rice porridge for Xiaodao, and gave her some to eat at night.”

Pei Zhiqi saluted Li Xiaoxin and said, "Thank you, brother, for taking care of my wife along the way, it's been hard work."

"Hey~" Li Xiaoxin pretended not to be happy and said, "My own sister, it's not your turn to thank me yet."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone laughed softly.

Pei Zhiqi also smiled and said, "Brother is right, but I overstepped."

Mrs. Qi said: "It's just that there is no place to put the dishes on this table, so we can't put them in this courtyard to eat, it's winter..."

The yamen servant hurriedly said: "Today, the master asked me to vacate a clean room for Pei Xiucai and Miss Li. I have sent someone to clean it up. There is a small side room next to that room. Why don't you put it there Eat, a dozen or so people can still squeeze together."

"This is great! I'm worried about where to serve this dish!" Cook Wang looked at Li Xiaoxin and then at Qi's, and said with a smile.

Xiaodouzi joked: "Brother Yamen servant, why is Pei Xiu the only one who has the good treatment in a single room? Arrange it for us too!"

After getting to know each other well, everyone is no longer afraid of official errands, and dares to make jokes.

The yamen servant scratched his head and said with a embarrassed look: "Master only said to arrange it for Pei Xiucai. I can't blame me! I want to arrange it, but even in this state government house, there are not so many vacancies! And this state shepherd There are many adults and concubines, and houses are always in short supply. Speaking of which, big brother, you don’t have a wife, so it’s a waste to live in one room, big guy, right?”

After the yamen servant finished speaking, everyone laughed again, even Mrs. Qi couldn't help laughing while covering her mouth.

Li Xiaoxin said: "Xiaodao and brother-in-law can be alone, she always talks about fear of infecting others, let her and brother-in-law stay together!"

After saying this, everyone laughed again.

Gradually, the fleeing team also had a Chinese New Year atmosphere.

"Pei Xiucai, come with me, I'll show you the way, and you can move there with Miss Li at night," said the yamen servant.

"Okay. It's just..." Pei Zhiqi looked at Li Xiaoxin and asked, "Can you please go with me, brother? I still have something to ask brother."

Li Xiaoxin said briskly: "Okay! I'll go with you. I'll show you the way. First set up the tables and stools. I'll serve food and lead the way for everyone later!"

Li Xiaoxin hurriedly said to Qi Shi again: "Madam, I'll go, if you are tired, go to the room to rest..."

"I'm not tired, go ahead, I'll be bored by myself, and I'll serve dishes with them later," Qi said.

Li Xiaoxin lamented that since this escape, his wife has become more and more talkative.

Be sure to keep it up, and it will be great when you return to the provincial capital.

So the yamen servant brought Pei Zhiqi and Li Xiaoxin, a total of three people, out of the temporary courtyard.

Walking along the way, Li Xiaoxin sighed in his heart. He didn't dare to wander around for fear of causing trouble these days. He didn't expect to go out for a walk, and then he realized that the serious and scary front gate of the state government office was so beautiful and pleasant, with flowers and plants, a small pond and rockery. , The courtyard wing room is really unique.

"Pei Xiucai, I've already taken your horse to the stable and told him to feed it well, don't worry," the yamen servant said to Pei Zhiqi.

Pei Zhiqi cupped his hands and thanked him.

After walking for a while, the yamen servant brought the two of them to a small courtyard. There were two rows of rooms in the east and west. The room in the west wing was reserved for Pei Zhiqi and Li Xiaodao, and the other rooms depended on the situation. people.

The yamen servant opened the door of a room, took Pei Zhiqi in to have a look, and said while looking, "This is it, take a look at this room, the furniture is complete, and I have someone burn a pot of charcoal fire early in the room." , it’s getting a little warmer now, and the hot water is ready, so it’s very suitable for Miss Li to live in.”

Pei Zhiqi hurriedly saluted and said, "Thank you, master, for taking care of me, and thank you, sir, for your help."

The yamen servant led the two of them out of the house again, and opened the door of a small house next door.

"This is the side room next door, but it is rarely used. There is a table in the corner, which can be used for New Year's Eve dinner, but there are not many stools, only four or five. Anyway, everyone in the yamen will go home to eat tonight. Is there a kitchen?" People, you bring a few stools from the kitchen and put them back after you use them up, it's okay."

"Okay, okay, I understand, thank you brother yamen servant!" Feeling very satisfied, Li Xiaoxin hurriedly thanked the yamen servant.

"It's been arranged, what orders do you two have? The master told me that Mr. Xiucai will try his best to meet all the requirements, and you can just ask if you want anything else."

"I don't have any more." Li Xiaoxin looked around and moved the table to the center of the room.

Pei Zhi wondered: "There is really one thing I want to bother Mr. Official, if I want to take a bath tonight, what should I do..."

"Bath..." the yamen servant thought about it: "For hot water, you can go to the kitchen to heat it yourself, but the bathtub... In the ear room opposite the firewood room, there are two small rooms for the yamen servant brothers to take a temporary bath, and there are bathtubs inside. , but everyone is used to washing it at home, and you haven’t used it much, so you have to clean it yourself before you can use it.”

"Understood, thank you sir, I'm fine," Pei Zhiqi bowed.

"Okay, if there's nothing else to do, I'll leave first, and I should go home at this time," the yamen servant said to the two, then turned around and prepared to leave.

Li Xiaoxin and Pei Zhiqi thanked the yamen servant again, and walked a few steps outside the house.

When the yamen servant left, Li Xiaoxin asked, "Which one of you wants to take a bath? It can't be..."
