Chapter 2145 Meet Zuo Junmo
When the sky was bright, the carriage had already arrived outside the city gate of Huguang County.
The city gate was closed, but in Luo Fengtang's hand, he was holding a token given by Bai Laowu last time.
Bai Laowu got that token from Zhao Bosheng, the magistrate of Huguang County.
With this token, Luo Fengtang entered the city gate easily.
"Qing'er, wake up, get off the car and have something to eat before we continue on our way."
Luo Fengtang's voice came from outside the carriage.
Inside the carriage, Yang Ruoqing suddenly opened her eyes.
Only then did he realize that he had fallen asleep unknowingly during the bumpy carriage ride.
He was also covered with a small quilt.
"good!"
She responded, sat up, and looked out the car window.
It was still early in the morning and the sun had not yet risen.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of a teahouse on the street. There were hardly many people on the street.
Yang Ruoqing got out of the car, and Luo Fengtang was waiting beside the car.
"Let's go to the teahouse to have something to eat and drink a bowl of hot tea to warm our hands and feet before we go on our way." He said.
Yang Ruoqing nodded, and the two of them entered the teahouse together.
I don’t want to go to Tianxiang Tower because Tianxiang Tower is not on this street.
Tianxiang Building is on the busiest street in the east, and at this time, Tianxiang Building is definitely not open for business. The restaurant does business at noon, mainly at night.
So this time, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang discussed it and did not plan to go to Tianxiang Tower.
The two of them entered the teahouse, found a clean table and sat down, ordered a pot of hot Longjing tea, and then ordered a few breakfast items.
There were few people in the teahouse at the moment, and all the refreshments they ordered were delivered quickly.
The two of them were eating and drinking face to face, when suddenly, a familiar voice entered the teahouse.
Because Luo Fengtang's back was towards the entrance, Yang Ruoqing looked up and looked right at him.
"Tangyazi, look quickly, isn't that Brother Zuo?" she said.
Luo Fengtang turned around and saw Zuo Junmo entering the teahouse and looking around, probably choosing a seat.
He quickly stood up and waved to Zuo Junmo: "Brother Zuo, here."
Zuo Junmo happened to come over here and saw the two of them at a glance. Zuo Junmo's eyes also lit up, and he quickly came over in surprise.
"Brother Fengtang, Qing'er, why are you drinking tea here so early in the morning?" Others asked in surprise before they even sat down.
Luo Fengtang said: "It's a long story, so let Qing'er tell it."
Zuo Junmo then cast his inquiring gaze on Yang Ruoqing.
Yang Ruoqing frowned slightly and asked Zuo Junmo: "Brother Zuo, you came just in time. We are planning to find a local to be our guide later and take us to Hekou Village."
"Hekou Village? I know!" Zuo Junmo said.
"Ah?" Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows.
Zuo Junmo continued: "Hekou Village is about ten miles away from our Zuojiazhuang. It is on the bank of the river. I have friends who live in Hekou Village."
"Qing'er, what do you want to do when you go to Hekou Village? Can you tell me?" he asked.
Yang Ruoqing said: "That's right, we received intelligence that someone saw a child who looks similar to our Chen'er in Hekou Village..."
Yang Ruoqing spoke concisely and concisely, and told Zuo Junmo about the intelligence.
After hearing all this, Zuo Junmo also became excited.
"Whether the news is true or false, we have to verify it," he said.
"Let's do this. After we have breakfast, I will accompany you to Hekou Village."
Hearing this, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang looked at each other, with a touch of surprise in their eyes.
It couldn't be better to have Zuo Junmo, a native and well-respected person in the local area, traveling with us.
"But, having said that, I suddenly want to condemn you two!"
Zuo Junmo continued.
"When you arrived in Huguang County, you went to Hekou Village to find my nephew, but you didn't even think of asking me to lead the way?" He asked again, a little angrily.
Luo Fengtang's face was full of embarrassment, Yang Ruoqing hurriedly smiled and explained: "Brother Zuo, it's not like this..."
"On the way here, Tang Yazi asked me if I wanted to come see you."
"I was thinking that the Chinese New Year is coming in more than two months. This time of year is the busiest time for you, Brother Zuo."
"The accounts of so many shops and businesses have to be taken into account at the end of the year. I am also a businessman myself, so I know this very well."
"Also, I'm not sure whether you are in this county or not,"
"As for our going to Hekou Village, we need to resolve it quickly. We rushed here overnight last night, so we have no intention of looking for you this time," she said.
After listening to Yang Ruoqing's detailed explanation, the dissatisfaction on Zuo Junmo's face gradually disappeared.
"Well, okay, your considerations are reasonable," he said.
"If you had come one day earlier or one day later, we would definitely not have met again, because I have to leave for Changhuaizhou to handle business in two days."
Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang both nodded.
Luo Fengtang suddenly realized something, stood up and said, "I'll order some food for you, Brother Zuo..."
Zuo Junmo stretched out his hand and grabbed Luo Fengtang, "No need, you have enough food here, don't waste any more time."
Luo Fengtang then looked at Yang Ruoqing.
Yang Ruoqing said: "Then follow Brother Zuo."
Luo Fengtang then sat down and pushed the bowl of shredded pork noodles that had just been delivered to Zuo Junmo.
"I didn't use the chopsticks. Brother Zuo, you eat the noodles and I eat the steamed buns." Luo Fengtang said, reaching out and grabbing a white flour steamed bun and gnawing on it.
Zuo Junmo was stunned for a moment.
At this time, a pair of clean chopsticks was handed to him.
"Brother Zuo, eat it while it's hot. After you finish eating, the three of us will go to Hekou Village together!" Yang Ruoqing said.
Zuo Junmo no longer hesitated, took the chopsticks, and ate the noodles.
The three of them finished their breakfast as quickly as possible and then walked out of the teahouse together.
Zuo Junmo came here on horseback and rushed back to Huguang County overnight. At this point, he was in the same situation as Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang.
"Brother Zuo, Tang Yazi, you two should go and relax in the carriage for a while, I'll catch the train!"
At the door of the teahouse, Yang Ruoqing said to the two of them.
They both stayed up all night, and both of them had bloodshot eyes.
As for herself, she actually slept last night.
However, both men shook their heads and refused in a tacit understanding.
"Not tired."
"not sleepy!"
The two people said in unison, and after they finished speaking, they both smiled a little awkwardly.
Chapter completed!
