Lingtai County is a remote small county.

Even so, Lingtai County also received the sea arrest document sent by the imperial court.

Among them was the arrest warrant for Yu Jiu.

Wearing a coarse cloth bunt and a bamboo hat, Yu Jiu stood in front of the bulletin board, looked up at the wanted notice posted on the top of the bulletin board, and clicked his tongue.

"The painting is quite similar!"

Generally, there will be a big gap between the portrait on the wanted warrant and the person himself, because the artist responsible for the painting has never seen the wanted criminal himself, so he can only rely on other people's descriptions to draw, and the result of the painting will inevitably be unsatisfactory.

But on the arrest warrant for Yu Jiu in front of him, Yu Jiu's image is vividly drawn.

Anyone with eyes can connect the real person with the portrait at a glance.

Xiao Xixi was also looking at the portrait.

She recognized the portrait the first time she saw it.

It was drawn by Luo Qinghan himself.

His painting skills are superb, and he has seen Yu Jiu himself, so naturally his paintings are extraordinarily realistic.

But it's useless even if the picture looks more like it.

Yu Jiu had expected this to happen a long time ago, so she made a disguise for herself first.

At this time, he looked like an ordinary mountain man with dark and rough skin and a layer of stubble growing under his chin.

Xiao Xixi's long palace dress has been replaced with the most common apricot-colored jacket and skirt, and even the fox fur cloak brought out from the palace was left in the carriage.

At this time, she was wearing a rough black cloak.

She purposely pulled the hood up over her head, covering her gray hair.

There are officers and soldiers guarding the notice board.

It is estimated that the officers and soldiers did not expect that the wanted criminal would come to them openly, so they didn't even look at Yu Jiu and Xiao Xixi, and they were still chatting and laughing on their own.

Xiao Xixi sniffed.

She smelled the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes, and immediately turned around to follow the scent.

Seeing her walking so fast, Yu Jiu thought she had discovered something, so she hurriedly followed her.

In the end, she was seen stopping in front of a small stall selling roasted sweet potatoes.

Yu Jiu: "..."

He's so stupid, he shouldn't have had too much hope for this woman.

The stall owner picked up a fragrant and hot baked sweet potato and enthusiastically sold it.

"Little lady, would you like a roasted sweet potato?"

Xiao Xixi stared straight at the roasted sweet potatoes, and couldn't help swallowing.

But she has no money.

She could only turn her head to look at Yu Jiu, and asked eagerly.

"Can you lend me some money?"

Yu Jiu pursed her lips and sneered: "No."

Before, she would rather hoard the food than give it to him, which made him go hungry.

He still remembers this hatred to this day!

Xiao Xixi's eye sockets turned red quickly, tears accumulated in her eyes, and her mouth trembled into a wavy line.

"Woooooo, I want to eat roasted sweet potatoes!"

Yu Jiu turned a blind eye to her acting coquettishly, and sneered: "You don't have money to eat ass."

Seeing this, the stall owner couldn't stand it anymore, and couldn't help but persuade him.

"What did this young man say? Your wife just wants to eat a roasted sweet potato, and the roasted sweet potato is not worth much. Even if you are reluctant to buy it for her, you can't scold her like that, right?"

Before Yu Jiu could open his mouth to argue, Xiao Xixi spoke first.

"Brother, you misunderstood, I am not his wife."

The stall owner looked at her, then at Yu Jiu next to him, and asked in confusion.

"Aren't you husband and wife?"

Xiao Xixi said with tears in her eyes: "My husband has someone else, but because of this person's intrusion, he forcibly snatched me away from my husband. Woohoo, I miss my husband so much now, In the past, every time I went out with my husband, he would buy me delicious food."

The stall owner turned pale with shock: "It turned out to be an individual trafficker!"

He immediately threw away the roasted sweet potatoes in his hand, and ran towards the officers and soldiers not far away, shouting as he ran.

"My lord, there is a human trafficker who abducts and sells women from good families, arrest him quickly!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yu Jiu grabbed Xiao Xixi's arm and ran away.

Yu Jiu didn't stop until he ran a long distance and was sure that the group of officers and soldiers could not catch up.

He stared at Xiao Xixi angrily.

"You did it on purpose just now!"

The tears in Xiao Xixi's eyes had already been wiped away.

She lifted her chin and said triumphantly.

"Yes, who told you not to lend me money to buy baked sweet potatoes?"

Yu Jiu gritted his teeth with hatred: "Eat, eat, eat, you will know how to eat! Do you remember what you came here for?"

Xiao Xixi: "I know I'm here to help you find your father, but this doesn't prevent me from eating roasted sweet potatoes. We can go find your parents while eating roasted sweet potatoes."

Yu Jiu roared: "Is this the point?!"

Xiao Xixi blinked innocently: "Isn't it this?"

Yu Jiu was so angry that her heart ached.

Xiao Xixi looked around and soon found a place to eat nearby.

It was a mutton restaurant, with the words Weiji mutton written on the colored flags hanging at the door.

Xiao Xixi cheered up immediately and said excitedly.

"Let's go and eat!"

Yu Jiu didn't want to eat it, but he was afraid that this woman would make trouble again.

In order not to cause trouble, he could only walk into Weiji Mutton Restaurant with her with a sullen face.

The business of the mutton restaurant is not bad, and almost all the seats are almost full.

Xiao Xixi found an empty table and sat down.

The proprietress asked enthusiastically while pouring tea for them deftly.

"What do you two want to eat? The signatures of our store are mutton noodles, mutton dumplings, and mutton pot. What do you want to eat?"

Children only make choices, Xiao Xixi said without hesitation as an adult.

"I want it all!"

The proprietress was taken aback for a moment, and asked uncertainly, "You mean to have one serving of everything?"

Xiao Xixi: "One serving of mutton pot first, two servings of mutton noodles and two servings of mutton dumplings, all of which should be large."

The proprietress kindly reminded: "The portions in our store are quite large. A young couple like you can finish one mutton pot and two hot-boiled dishes at most."

When Xiao Xixi heard this, she hurriedly said.

"It turns out that there are also shabu-shabu! I also want shabu-shabu, what do you have? Forget it, no matter what kind of dish you have, give us a portion of every shabu-shabu."

The proprietress: "..."

The proprietress probably has never seen such a happy little lady ordering food, so she couldn't help but ask a lot.

"Can you finish eating?"

Xiao Xixi nodded vigorously: "It must be finished!"

The proprietress had no choice but to respond with a subtle expression.

"Wait a second, I'll tell the kitchen to prepare dishes for you."

Xiao Xixi urged: "Hurry up, we are all hungry."

The proprietress responded with a smile: "Okay."

The food was served soon.

It was quite a big table, and it was packed to the brim.

There are still some dishes that can't be placed, so they can only be placed on the small shelf next to them.

There is a small stove in the middle of the table, and a large casserole is placed on the stove. The soup inside is constantly tumbling and steaming out.

Xiao Xixi couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of mutton from the casserole, wrapped it in the secret sauce presented by the store, and stuffed it into his mouth.

She was so hot that she breathed in, but she was reluctant to spit it out, and her expression became quite funny.

Yu Jiu originally had a gloomy face, but seeing her like this now, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up, and she sneered disdainfully.

Tsk, this woman is so stupid.
