Chapter 634 634. Hidden
The mountains on the outskirts of the imperial capital.
The doorman who had just packed up and was about to change his guard looked at the time - there were still ten minutes left, just enough time to catch up on the update.
However, when I opened the APP, I found that the three books I was following on the bookshelf were not updated... Is it because the Internet connection is not good?
He was worried, so he subconsciously clicked in, and then discovered in despair: these three books are really not updated!
—How could this be so? !
Today is a day of holiday and inactivity. These authors didn’t even send out their leave requests, so they just did it so directly? Is this reasonable? This does not put their readers in the eyes at all!
I scrolled through the comment area again, and sure enough, there were a lot of complaints and curses:
【Dog thief! The pigeons are pigeons, and they don’t ask for leave. 】
@Besides, you have always been working hard, so why is there no movement today? 】
【I knew that once the copyright of Qingyun was sold, people would become less diligent】
Hateful!
The sad reader scolded each of the three books, and then he felt heartbroken and changed his post.
At the moment he exited the APP, new chapters of the three books were released at the same time:
"Sorry, I was drunk yesterday"
…
And at this low-key gate, the guard stood there solemnly, but his soul had not yet recovered from this emotion. He saw the familiar courier boy driving the car over again, and finally moved a few couriers neatly. Come down.
After the young guard checked them one by one, his heart couldn't help but feel a little pounding.
Among them, there is a courier to wish the old man from Qingxi Town, Yuncheng.
Good guy!
He quickly looked around the community, and sure enough, he saw Xiao Du's familiar face rushing towards him, and asked him from afar:
"Is there any express delivery from our old man? He stared at it early in the morning and saw the signature."
What it is for is self-evident.
Sure enough, when Xiao Du pulled the pile of express delivery over and saw the express box from Qingxi Town, Yuncheng, the other person held it in his arms and ran away without saying a word.
The doorman looked at his retreating figure, turned around and quickly dialed the numbers one by one:
“Mr. Zhou, there is another express delivery from Qingxi Town today…”
…
Lao Zhu has now learned to be patient.
After all, **** experience told him that he cannot run fast as he is old. If someone stops him halfway and fights him, he will inevitably lose something in his arms.
It is better to count on Xiao Du and wait at home.
But I don’t feel at ease waiting - because if those old guys get the news in advance and shamelessly stop me on the way, Xiao Du won’t dare to fight them!
At this moment, he was pacing back and forth in the yard, feeling embarrassed in every possible way.
Fortunately, not long after, Xiao Du ran in panting, then stood upright solemnly, and placed the express box in Lao Zhu's excited palm.
The next moment, the old man and the young man looked at each other and quickly entered the house——
“Crack!” Close the door and lock it in one go.
Lao Zhu skillfully opened the box and saw twenty marinade packets wrapped inside, as well as a mineral water bottle wrapped in the middle.
Although the outer packaging was simple, he didn't dislike it at all. He only saw the transparent liquid inside, shook it slightly, and thought of a possibility, and his heart suddenly trembled with excitement!
Could it be...
He unscrewed the lid without saying a word.
In an instant, a strong aroma hit his nostrils, irritating the alcohol bug in his stomach that he had endured for a long time. It rolled so hard that every cell in his body said:
There was no one else in the room. Lao Zhu looked at Xiao Du Zhuozhuo and said with a guilty conscience:
"I'll just take a small sip. Don't tell the doctors. What will they know?"
Then without waiting for Xiao Du to retort, he quickly took out his own small wine cup from the cupboard and carefully poured half a cup into it. How can an old drunkard resist the mellow aroma of that wine?
At this moment, holding the wine glass, he suppressed his eagerness and took a careful sip.
“Good wine!”
After one sip, my heart and liver seemed to tremble, that kind of cold yet mellow stimulation...
After a "rubbing", Lao Zhu's eyes lit up!
He hurriedly put down the wine cup in his hand, then tightened the mineral water bottle and started spinning it around the room:
“Xiao Du! Hurry, hurry, find a place where no one can find it and hide it.”
Little Du paused, then picked up the wine bottle and entered the back room.
He came out not long after, but Lao Zhu was stunned and wary: "Where are you hiding? Are you not planning to give me a drink in the future?"
Xiao Du smiled: "Old man, the doctor said that you really can't drink it. Your family has given you many warnings..."
"I don't believe it!" Lao Zhu said loudly, "I never heard the doctor say that!"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard familiar noises coming from outside the yard.
His heart trembled, thinking about his precious tobacco. Without saying a word, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and then quickly ordered:
“Hurry up, wash it and put it away. I’ll open the door.”
These old guys are as unstoppable as Niubi Tang, so he might as well open the door as early as possible to show that he is just collecting some braised ingredients packets, and he doesn't feel guilty.
Alas, the granddaughter is considerate. This halogen bag is sent to 20, which is clearly hitting the west. I am afraid that people grabbing his wine and take this to everyone to see ...
What a great granddaughter!
He was thinking so hard and kept moving his hands. When he opened the door, it turned out to be the same group of robbers again.
Mr. Zhou, who was headed by the leader, smiled kindly: "Old Zhu, we have been brothers for so many years, so you don't want me to say it out, right?"
Lao Zhu snorted, and it was very similar to what happened: "There are some things that make you run faster than rabbits - why, my granddaughter is filial? Can't I just be a solitary eater?"
As he spoke, he angrily took the express box over, revealing twenty packs of marinated ingredients simply wrapped inside.
“For braising tea eggs, share two of them per person. You can eat a lot of meals by cooking this pot and keeping it in the refrigerator.”
Everyone looked at him with subtle expressions, and then silently put the bag of marinade into their pockets.
When there were only two packets of marinade left in the box, although Lao Zhu was heartbroken, he breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the next moment, he saw Lao Zhou in front of him smiling like a fox:
“Old Zhu, next time you trick someone into gargling your mouth first, your mouth will smell like wine!”
"And the smell of wine in this room, I can't even pretend to be stupid - where is Xiao Du? Xiao Du, tell me where he hid the wine!"
Lao Zhu's eyesight went dark.
The granddaughter only sent one bottle this time. With their drinking capacity, how many sips of wine is enough for them?
Therefore, Lao Zhu would rather die than surrender and resolutely defended his secret, so that everyone entangled for a long time and finally dispersed unhappily.
As soon as they left, Lao Zhu patted Xiao Du **** the shoulder:
"Well done! I guess they are not honest. Someone here is pestering me, and someone over there must want to be a robber..."
“Okay, okay, we’re gone, please get the wine down quickly. I need to put it in a better bottle.”
However, after the words fell, Xiao Du did not move in front of him. Lao Zhu looked over suspiciously and saw a trace of apology on the young and simple face:
“Old man, the doctor really told me not to drink it. So I really hid it... Why don’t you find it yourself?”
Lao Zhu:…
Good night.
