Chapter 261

Two days later, the fair in the square began at noon. Every family took advantage of the good weather to buy some new year's goods.

After lunch, Hao Wei closed the shop and his family went to the market.

At this time, the huge square has been filled with all kinds of stalls, the crowd is crowded, the soldiers on patrol are interspersed with them, and there is a lively cry everywhere.

Duanmu ring and Gu Mingyue carefully protect Xu Qing in the middle. Instead of entering the market, they turn around in a place with few people outside.

Lanterns, firecrackers, red paper, New Year pictures Pick two more couplets, Xu Qing also saw that there are selling chess and go, quickly picked two pairs.

Around, Duanmu ring and Gu Mingyue's bamboo baskets are full of things, and they also carry a lot of things in their hands.

After shopping for more than half an hour, Xu Qing was tired. They went back home and picked up the big lanterns they had bought before.

Here, Hao Wei and Xu Ying crowded into the middle of the market and bought a lot of good goods, almost all of which were food, fruits, snacks, and vegetables that were easy to store. They went back and forth twice before they all moved back.

In the evening, Xu Qing ordered a batch of firewood and delivered it.

"Boss, is it the 3000 Jin firewood ordered by a boss Xu here?" The man driving the donkey cart asked Hao Wei.

"We bought firewood. Why didn't Lao Li send it?" Hao Wei looked at them and felt very surprised.

"We are the ones Lao Li called to deliver the goods to him." The two men got out of the car and said with a simple, honest and respectful smile, "where will the firewood move? We'll move it for you."

Hao Wei: "come in from the backyard. I'll open the door for you."

"Well, thank you." They drove the donkey cart around to the backyard. Hao Wei opened the door for them and asked them to move the firewood under the eaves.

Hao Wei helped him, and heard the delivery man ask him, "is your shop owner's name Xu Qing? I've eaten her cakes. They're delicious! "

Another said, "I've eaten them, too, but it seems that you don't sell cakes in recent months."

Hao Wei replied, "our landlady is pregnant, so it's not convenient to make cakes, so we don't sell them."

The other party was surprised, even busy way: "Oh, Congratulations!"

Hao Wei: "I hear you speak with an accent, not from Hezhou, right?"

The other side said, "no, we are refugees from other places. Many of Xinghu are not local. For example, in our mountain, there are about 20 households from different states and cities."

Hao Wei: "you just stack the firewood under the eaves on both sides. It's windy here. It's not easy to get wet by rain and snow. Let me know when it's ready. By the way, shall I pay you or Lao Li?"

The man said with a smile, "just give it to us. If you have something to do, you can do it."

Hao Wei nodded and went around the house to the yard.

When the two men saw that Hao Wei had left, their simple and honest smile disappeared immediately. They looked at the room in front of them quietly as they piled firewood.

It's night.

Xu Qing was suddenly awakened by the sound of fighting outside, and then came several hasty footsteps upstairs, as if someone had broken into her home!

"Ah Qing, hide quickly!" The sound of Duanmu came from the yard.

Xu Qing heard the sound of Duanmu ring, his heart thump, ear faint footsteps, fast to her room, want to also don't want, Xu Qing into the space.

"Hiss -"

for a moment, Xu Qing had already appeared on the big bed in the space. She just sat up and got up a little fiercely. Her leg cramped and she showed her teeth in pain.

When her stomach became big, she would occasionally smoke a few times. Sometimes it hurt. She thought her legs were going to be broken. But now she even has to bend over and find a special posture to rub.

Xu Qing carefully turned over and lay on his side on the bed, bending his legs and stretching them.

I don't know what's going on outside. In the middle of the night, a group of people came to her house. Did they want to kill her?

Hao Wei and Xu Ying may be OK living in the shop, but Gu Mingyue lives on the second floor of her side. In case the gangsters kill anyone, Xu Qing can't imagine what it will be like when she goes out.

Besides, can Duanmu ring be handled by one person?

When the cramp eased, Xu Qinghu sat up slowly, found a coat to put on, and took out a short thread from the cupboard.

There's no sense of time passing in the space. It's always day here. There's no difference between a minute and an hour. So in order to keep time, or when you need to pay special attention to time, Xu Qing will light a thread incense outside the house and put it in a prominent position.

The burning time of Xianxiang varies from half an hour to eight hours, so that they don't forget when they stay in the space for a long time.

Xu Qing sat under the eaves and watched the incense burn out. She estimated that it had been more than half an hour. She took a machete from the corner and took a deep breath out of the room.

There was a candle burning in the room, but there was no one. The door was closed and everything was normal.

Xu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and then heard a lot of people talking in the yard, as well as Zhao Jian's loud voice.Zhao Jian is here. It should be OK.

Xu Qing was completely relieved, put down his machete, put on his thick coat, opened the door and went out.

As soon as I went out, I saw Duanmu ring turn around and look at her. Then I helped her to walk into the room.

"Don't go out. It's noisy outside. You stay in the room and come out later." Duanmu ring lowered his voice and said, "don't worry, there are heavy soldiers around. It's very safe."

"No one's hurt? Are Mingyue and Xu Ying OK? " Asked Xu Qing.

"It's all right, but Zhao Jian's men and horses lost several people when they were tracking." Duanmu Xiang helps Xu Qing sit on the Kang and puts some pillows on her back.

"Who is going to kill us?" Xu Qing pulled the quilt to cover herself. The cold quilt made her shiver.

Duanmu Xiang raised the Kang and said, "I haven't found out yet. I only know that it's a group of well-trained killers. They escaped two and the rest died. I didn't want to keep a living. They first made some noise for me, trying to lead me out, but I saw through it. Fortunately, the madman was in Yu poming's place. He heard the noise and came quickly to help me solve most of the enemies. "

Xu nodded, her room is still safe, must be Duanmu ring and Qi Feng help her block the enemy, did not let people break in.

"When I came in and saw you not in the room, I knew you were in space." Duanmu whispered, "if you are sleepy, go to sleep. We are outside."

Xu Qing shook his head: "can't sleep."

She couldn't understand who wanted to assassinate her. These killers came to this house, and they must have come to her.

It can't be Gu Mingyue and Duanmu Xiang. One of them has a simple identity and the other has no grudge.
