During the time of speaking, a group of people came to the front, the carriage stopped, and the few officials fell to their knees and shouted loudly: "The lowly ranks welcome the magistrate!"

Situ Yi got out of the carriage, immediately called the officials to get up, and explained the situation to them at the same time.

"Let's go to the county government office and talk about it. The official came here just to drop by to take a look." Situ Yi didn't directly specify the purpose of coming. After all, he has been an official for so many years and knows this set of tricks in the officialdom. If he explained his purpose now, then these officials would definitely drag him to have a meal, and during this meal, they have already explained the matter, if you want to clarify the problem again, then you can trouble.

Situ Yi's words made Zhang Hui, the leader of Jinnan County, frowned secretly. It can be seen that he also knew that Situ Yi's words were just polite words, and why he came here for nothing.

But he was ashamed to continue asking, instead he greeted Situ Yi to go inside with a smile, and at the same time called the yamen servant at the side: "Hurry up and greet Yingchunlou, and quickly put the wine and dishes I ordered on the table."

If it had been changed, Situ Yi would naturally not agree to these people's banquets. After all, he was also an upright official, so how could he be eating and drinking with these guys.However, before getting out of the car just now, Song Wuya had already told him to let him go and follow the wishes of these people, while he and Bai Zhuo went around the city to inquire about the common people The words in his mouth are piled up with Jinnan County's direct understanding and judgment.

Seeing Situ Yi Yuan away, Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo followed Situ Yi's carriage and the officials.

After entering the county seat, the two dispersed directly from the crowd. They had already agreed on a place to meet, so naturally nothing would happen.

"Seed cakes, sesame cakes, freshly baked sesame cakes."

It was already noon, but there were not many people coming and going on the street, not even many hawkers on the street.Moreover, Song Wuya also observed that there were very few people sitting in the restaurants near the city gate.This couldn't help but reminded him of the scene in front of the city gate just now, and he recalled that no one entered the county at that time.

"This is really weird! No matter how you look at it, Jinnan County is also a prosperous place, and it is not much worse than Songjiang Mansion. Why is it so depressed?" Song Wuya couldn't figure out what was going on, and complained hesitantly said a word.

"Seed cakes, sesame cakes, freshly baked sesame cakes."

At this moment, the sound of selling sesame seed cakes came again.

"Brother Bai Zhuo, are you hungry?" Song Wuya turned to look at Bai Zhuo and asked.

Bai Zhuo nodded when he heard this, and immediately the two of them walked towards the sesame seed stall led by Song Wuya.

"Boss, here are two biscuits!"

The presence of Song Wuya and the others made the biscuit vendor very happy: "Okay!"

With a yell, two sesame seed cakes were swiftly held in his hands, wrapped in oiled paper, and handed to the two of them.

"Originally, my biscuits were sold for three copper coins. It's rare to open today, so I'll give you the cost price. Just give me four copper coins for two biscuits."

This sesame seed peddler was really real, and he had to charge two copper coins less for the two of them the first time they met.Song Wuya smiled slightly, and immediately took out six copper coins, and slapped them in the hands of the peddler.

"It's not easy for the boss to sell sesame seed cakes. You can give this benefit to us when your business is successful." Song Wuya is not a person who takes advantage of small advantages, not to mention that at this time, these two copper coins are of great value .

Sure enough, the peddler looked at the six copper coins in his hand, but he didn't give in. Instead, he smiled embarrassedly and put them away.At the same time, he couldn't stop praising Song Wuya: "These two gentlemen seem to have read the books of sages and sages, and they know how to sympathize with us small vendors! Sigh, I don't know if there will be a future, I guess The sesame seed cakes that have been sold for several years are probably sold out.”

The peddler who said it well actually became sad, which actually cheered Song Wuya up.He originally wanted to buy some biscuits to talk to the peddler, but now that he said this, it just gave him a topic.Immediately, Song Wuya raised his hand and took a bite of the biscuit in his hand.

The crisp pancakes entered his mouth, with a slight salty taste, and Song Wuya became obsessed with this pancake after just one bite.

Immediately, he chewed the sesame seed cakes, and said vaguely: "Such delicious sesame seed cakes! No matter how you look at them, they are all good things that are in short supply. How could they be sold out?"

Bai Zhuo, who was at the side, also ate sesame seed cakes. He knew the purpose of Song Wuya's separation from Situ Yi, so he immediately echoed and yelled: "Yes! I want to learn the skill of this sesame seed cake, but I'm afraid that I will No! It's really delicious!"

Hearing the compliments from the two, what was meant to be good was directly addressed to the peddler's pain.

Hearing the compliments from the two, he didn't look happy at all, instead he shook his head and sighed again and again: "You two young masters don't know something, I've been here for half a day today, and only you two just sold these two sesame seed cakes." , and the rest can only be taken home and eaten by his wife and children.”

"Why is this? Jinnan County is also a place of prosperity!" Bai Zhuo asked in surprise, he understood better than Song Wuya, knowing that Jinnan County is a good place, how could such a thing happen.

The peddler immediately became angry, raised his finger behind the two of them, and pointed to other places in the surrounding streets, angrily scolded: "This business is going well, but for some reason, the government insisted on ordering something." The ban prevents people in the city from going out and people from outside the city from coming in. Now the business in the city cannot be done, and people outside the city have no place to rest. Originally, these outsiders were supposed to take care of them. It’s business, it’s good now, there’s nothing left.”

What the peddler said in anger was directed at the Jinnan County Government.Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo were shocked when they heard this!

"Forbidden order? Is there such a thing?" Song Wuya immediately asked in surprise.

Seeing the expression on Song Wuya's face, the peddler suddenly frowned, thought of something, and looked the two of them up and down: "Where are you two coming from? Judging from the accents of the two of you, it seems that you are not from the local area, right?" ?”

It wasn't until this time that the little girl began to wonder about the origins of the two of them.

"Brother has good ears, the two of us came here from Xiaoshan." Song Wuya immediately explained with a smile.

Who knows, just after he said that he came from Xiaoshan, the peddler's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly raised his head to look in the direction of the city gate.Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo couldn't understand his sudden action, the peddler didn't say anything, just picked up the pick on the ground, beckoned them to leave.

"You two young masters, please follow me and leave here quickly." After saying this, the peddler hurriedly walked into an alley, while looking back at the two of them.

This sudden situation made Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo a little confused about the situation, but seeing the impatient look of the peddler, he hesitated and followed.After entering the alley and making two turns, the peddler stopped.At this moment, he still had a flustered expression on his face, as if something terrible had happened, causing the two of them to feel an inexplicable sense of fear in their hearts.

?Chapter 33 Prohibition

"How did you two get in?" The vendor looked at the two in panic and asked.

Song Wuya turned his head and glanced at Bai Zhuo, frowned and said, "We saw a carriage parked in front of the city gate, followed those people and walked in, and the guards at the city gate didn't stop us."

"Oh! It's really fatal! You two should quickly find a way to get out of here! If you are caught by officers and soldiers, you two will be in great trouble soon!" After hearing Song Wuya's explanation, the peddler was anxious. Jumped up on the ground.

But the words he said at this time completely confused Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo, as they didn't know what he meant.

However, the expression on the peddler's face was definitely not a fake one, and it was definitely not a joke with Song Wuya.

"We can only leave through the city gate!" Song Wuya heard what the peddler meant, obviously he wanted to tell Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo that foreigners here might be controlled by the county government. That's why he was so panicked.

Sure enough, after hearing Song Wuya's words, the peddler shook his head and waved his hands again and again: "It's absolutely impossible, that's tantamount to throwing yourself into a trap!"

After he finished speaking, Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo fell into silence. It wasn't that they had nothing to say, but they wanted to hear more about what the peddler had to say.

Beggar frowned tightly, bit his lips tightly with his teeth, hesitated for a long time, and then suddenly relaxed his brows. It looked like he had made some important decision suddenly.

"Then you should stay in my house for the time being, and then find a way to escape later."

Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo were stunned when they heard this, they didn't expect this peddler to be so enthusiastic.But Song Wuya became puzzled in his heart, they were not familiar with this place, just a few words from the peddler, he was still a little worried.After all, it has been said since ancient times that one must not have the heart to harm others, and one must not have the heart to guard against others.

The peddler showed such an appearance in front of them, although he showed kindness to them, but Song Wuya couldn't prove whether the peddler's kindness had other plans for the two of them.

"How can you catch tiger cubs if you don't enter the tiger's lair! Let him go to the dragon's pond and tiger's lair first, just be careful in everything." Song Wuya thought in this way, and he was very grateful to the peddler: "Thank you, big brother, for waiting We, poor scholars, can't repay the kindness of saving our lives, and we can only repay it when we can be successful in high school in the future."

What Song Wuya didn't expect was that his words were made up in the first place, and Bai Zhuo almost ruined them.Bai Zhuo actually opened his mouth to explain the real situation of the two of them, Song Wuya pushed him immediately when he heard this, and at the same time hurriedly said something to the peddler, thus covering up what Bai Zhuo wanted to say.

"Brother, I still don't know what your name is!"

"My surname is Wu..." The vendor immediately said politely.

Hearing his surname, Song Wuya almost lost his fortune, and without thinking about it, he followed the peddler's words and said, "Wu Dalang?"

"Hey! It seems that this young master has heard of my Wu Dalang's biscuits! I am the boss of our old Wu family, so people call me Dalang." The peddler suddenly became happy, obviously it was Song Wuya. A sudden word.

However, Song Wuya could also hear it.The sesame seed vendor was called Wu Dalang, but he wasn't the Wu Dalang he thought.And this Wu Dalang is not as short as Wu Dalang, he is a normal man.Naturally, there was no Pan Jinlian in his family anymore who had conspired with Ximen Qing to rape and kill her husband.Song Wuya didn't need to worry, as they followed Wu Dalang home, and they would be implicated by others.

As Wu Dalang said, he carried his load and walked outside. After carefully looking at the surrounding situation, he beckoned the two of them to follow them out.The three of them went out of the alley, turned around and entered another alley, and after making several turns, they came to a house.
