Back to the Countryside
Chapter 75:寻人
[Looking for a person]
Yun Su hugged the small hand warmer, his body was so cold that he curled up into a ball, pouted his mouth and complained resentfully, “This place is truly cold, causing me to freeze to death. I’m going to get sick!”
Sitting on the other side of the carriage, Shen Juming who was holding one roll of medical book and reading it seriously, heard what his words, raised his eyes to look at him and said: “I have told you not to follow, but you do not listen to my advice, now you know how hard it is?”
“Even if it’s hard, it’s better than being bored in the valley…!” Knowing that he was in the wrong, he muttered in a low voice and asked again, “Such a remote place, will Shī Xiōng (Senior Brother) really be there?”

“That’s what Xiao Yu Heng said!”
Shen Juming put down the scroll book in his hand, lifted the curtain of the carriage and took a look. In the white blur, the shadow of the town could be vaguely seen, “We will soon reach the town, let’s rest here first!”
“Hn.” Yun Su answered casually. He frowned when he thought of that man’s face, “That surname Xiao is a smooth talker all day long, can his words be trusted?”
“He doesn’t look like he’s lying.” Shen Juming felt that his words had some credibility, “Anyway, we have nothing to lose by coming to see. If we can find Shi Xiong then that is the best, if not, we take it as if we just came here to take a break.”
“Shi Xiong is also really unreasonable, without saying a word and then suddenly disappearing without a trace, he should at least tell us ah!” Remembering this, Yun Su was angry again. In the past he was also like this whenever he went out, he just said go and then go as he liked, but this time he had disappeared for too long!
Actually Shen Juming understand in his heart that since he left without saying goodbye, that meant he did not want them to look for him. He had finished what he had always wanted to do so he probably wanted to find a place to spend his days in peace ba!
But although he understood this ; now they have his whereabouts, they still wanted to come and look for him. It was impossible for them to really forget about him and pretend that they have never known him.
The sound outside the carriage began to become noisy, Yun Su looked outside the window for a while, and then he retracted his head back with lack of interest, “Really boring!”
Shen Juming shook his head helplessly. He (YS) really thought they were out to play, huh?
“Are you hungry? Then let’s find a place to eat first!”
Seeing the other side nodded, he lifted the carriage curtain and asked the carriage driver to find a good restaurant. The journey was tiring and they didn’t rest much so when they arrived at the right place, they would like to eat something good.
After the carriage stopped, both of them got out of the carriage. The weather outside was even colder than inside the carriage which had the stove fire burning, so Yun Su shivered hard and pulled the fox fur robe draped over his body more tightly, “Winter is the most annoying!”

As a person who was very afraid of the cold, in previous years, he did not go out in winter, but this year there were unexpected events. It was all his Shi Xiong’s fault, supposedly everything should be alright, so why did he suddenly disappear? Moreover, he also made them come all the way to find him!
Knowing that he was afraid of the cold, Shen Juming took him into the store first and said to the waiter who came and greeted him, “Is there any private room available?”
At this time, it was time for lunch; the restaurant was full of customers. Naturally, there were no private rooms available. Seeing the two guests dressed in luxurious clothes, the waiter who accompanied them said carefully: “I’m really sorry, sir! The private room is full, but the comfortable seat is still available, I don’t know if you two …”
Actually there was only one comfortable seat left, moreover it was usually reserved for their young master and would not be given out to others. But today, the two of them looked like they could not be offended, so the waiter could only use it first for emergency purposes.
Hearing that there were no more private rooms, Yun Su frowned in dissatisfaction. No matter how good the comfortable seating was, how could it be compared to the private rooms? But, for such a small town to have this kind of restaurant was already pretty good so he did not say anything.
Seeing that he was reluctant but did not object, Shen Juming then nodded his head and said, “Trouble you to put a few more brazier, my little brother (Di di) can’t stand the cold.”
The waiter hurriedly nodded in response and took the two upstairs. The windows that were usually open were closed tightly at this time, so there was only a little cold wind pouring in, allowing Yun Su to relax his brow a little.
The waiter poured the tea for the two of them and took note of the dishes they ordered. He bowed before then he walked away.
“If I hadn’t come here to look for someone, such a small town, I’m afraid I would never set foot in here for the rest of my life!” Yun Su pouted, picked up a cup of tea and took a sip. He then immediately spit out his tongue and put it down, “It’s awful!”
“When we are outside, you’ll have to make do with it!” The taste of the tea was actually okay and not to the extent that it was unpleasant to drink, but the other party was used to being spoiled and being picky, so he felt that the tea tasted bad.
Looking at how he did not mind at all drinking the tea, Yun Su pouted and silently picked up the cup. Although the taste was not good, at least the tea was hot, which could warm him more.
The ordered dishes were served quickly, one plate after another of hot and piping up dishes, looking so appetizing but they didn’t know what the taste would be like.
Shen Juming served a bowl of fish soup and put it in front of him. In winter, the dishes cool quickly. This soup was fishy. It would be better to drink a bowl first to fill their stomach.
Yun Su tasted a spoonful. Unexpectedly it was quite delicious, there was no heavy spice flavor, but it was not outstanding for him, “It’s just barely palatable.”
Zheng Yue Feng, who had just stepped onto the second floor, happened to hear this so he subconsciously followed the voice and looked over. Every person who had eaten food in their restaurant, who did not praise that it was good? Who was this person who had the cheek to let out a spate of nonsense?
The voice came from the seat where he usually sits, the shopkeeper explained to him personally downstairs and said there were two valuable guests, so he made an exception and gave up his seat.

For the sake of the restaurant, to do so was also normal. He did not care much. At first, he wanted to find an ordinary seat to sit down but who would have thought that someone would say that about his family’s restaurant’s food?
It was enough that he took his seat. How dare he say the food was not good? Zheng Yue Feng narrowed his eyes. He would like to see by himself ‘a holy from where‘ the other party was!
[何方神圣 /hé fāng shén shèng: “a holy from where”—what person, a person of what background [in martial arts novels, used when a character inquires about sb of an apparently formidable background; now mostly sarcastic in tone]
He then turned his footsteps and stopped at the table of those two and said with an arch of his hand,greeting them, “Are you two dissatisfied with the food?”
When he got closer, he realized that these two people were dressed in fine clothes, especially the ger who spoke just now, wearing very carefully selected quality clothes, and their appearance and bearing was also one of a kind, no wonder he would say such picky words.
The voice of a stranger suddenly appeared beside him, Yun Su turned his head and looked over. His face was full of displeasure of being disturbed. He looked up and down at the other party for a few moments, brocade clothes and holding a folding fan in his hands in the middle of winter. He snorted, he thought he was outstanding and elegant, but in reality, he was just a brainless playboy young master, “What? Do you have something that you want to say?”
Zheng Yue Feng could see the contempt in his eyes clearly. Of course, it was also the reason why the other party didn’t hold back at all. He choked in his heart, at least he was also the most ideal husband in the hearts of the single young girls and gers in town. This was the first time he was so □□ nakedly disliked!
“Sorry, my younger brother is still young. Gongzi, please forgive him!” Shen Juming disapprovingly glanced at Yun Su and said in a good-natured way to compensate for the courtesy.
“It’s okay! I understand, I understand!” Zheng Yue Feng sighed with relief as he waved his hand. Whose family did not have one member who didn’t know how to properly behave? His family little sister’s arrogance was no less, “I am the owner of this Yan Yue restaurant, I just heard that this little ger seems to be not very satisfied with the food, so I especially came here to ask, if there are any complaint please put it forward, we may as well make it better.”
“Humph, then what you have to change is too much!” Yun Su completely did not give him a face. He hated this kind of ‘coquettish or dandified in appearance’ kind of pampered and rich young master the most, “I’m afraid that this whole restaurant of yours will have to be torn down and rebuilt!”
“Xiao Su!” Shen Juming lightly reprimanded him. The other party did not have any malicious intent, he (YS) was really rude by being like that.
His Shi Di (Junior Martial Brother) had been favored since childhood and whatever he wanted, he always got it. His personality was very arrogant and willful. He was not afraid of anyone except for Shi Xiong. By being undisciplined and out of control, he was a big headache for them.
Yun Su was unhappy, being scolded by him, glaring at Zheng Yue Feng as he turned his head away to sulk. It was this pampered young master’s fault for no good reason, coming to their seat and talking to them.
“Gong zi, no need to listen to this child’s nonsense! The food in the restaurant is extremely good and there is nothing to be dissatisfied with.” Knowing that his temper came and went quickly, Shen Juming just shook his head and smiled, not to say more about him.
“That’s good then!” Being inexplicably glared at, Zheng Yue Feng was also helpless. Luckily, there was someone among them who knew how to behave, “Both of you don’t look like you’re from here. Are you here for sightseeing?”
“Who would come to this shitty place to have fun…?” Yun Su rolled his eyes and muttered in a low voice.
A shitty place? Where is it no good? Our town’s people are simple and honest and the scenery is pleasant. The town itself is quite lively, such a good town, you know?
Of course, Zheng Yue Feng would not blurt it out, this kind of true feeling. He gave a forced laugh several times before he said, “That’s right, then the two of you are here to visit relatives?”
Shen Juming’s heart moved, this person seemed to be very familiar with this place, so he should also know how to go to the village where their Shi Xiong was. Perhaps he could make some inquiries from him, “We are here to find someone, I wonder if Gongzi, you know Gu…”
Before he finished speaking there was a loud ‘thump/thud’, a drunken customer overturned the table; the cups, plates and dishes were broken all over the floor, scared the surrounding guests to scatter far from there.
Zheng Yue Feng pinched his brow as he hurriedly went up and commanded several waiters to hold him back, “This guest is drunk, please take him out first! Don’t disturb the other customers having their meal!”
“Let me go! I’m (he is using Lao Zi here actually) … not drunk!” The man waved his hand to shake them off, “Ask me to get out? I … have plenty of money! I, I want to drink, drink!”
“This guest, you are already drunk so it is better to go back and rest early ba!” Zheng Yue Feng sullenly gave a few waiters a meaningful glance and told them to get the man away from here as soon as possible.
The man was already quite drunk, he saw Yun Su who was looking at his side with ‘fed up with something’ expression, in contrast with the snow-white fox fur, his face looking even prettier. He hiccuped, smiled lustfully and said: “Beauty, little beauty, come… over here to accompany, accompany me to drink a cup!”
Not only Yun Su, even Shen Juming’s face also looked bad. This bad guy dared to speak rudely to his Shi Di, this person seriously was not aware of the danger ahead of him!
Zheng Yue Feng felt a headache. Drunk people were the most unreasonable. He dared to provoke anyone. He waved his hand and told people to take him away in order not to offend the other guests.
“Beauty, I want beauty!” The drunkard didn’t understand his good intentions at all. His strength was surprisingly strong so that the waiters couldn’t pull him away for a while.
Yun Su coldly snorted, picked up the cup on the table and turned his hand over to throw it out. It hit right in the middle of that man’s mouth, directly breaking two of his incisors. Followed by a scream and blood in his mouth, he fell to the ground, instantly sobering up from the drunken state a lot.
Zheng Yue Feng sucked in a breath of cold air and subconsciously covered his mouth. This ger was so cruel. Fortunately, just now he did not say any disrespectful words, otherwise he would not end up well!
He turned around and cupped both of his hands in greeting toward them and said, “Sorry for disturbing your mood. My shabby restaurant could not provide the best service. This humble one will treat you guys to the meal today. Please forgive and tolerate our shortcomings! Enjoy your meal!”
After saying that, he asked the waiter to take the man go. No matter what, he was injured in their restaurant, so it was necessary to take him to the doctor for treatment.
“Humph, it’s good enough for him!” Yun Su pouted his mouth. What kind of trash was this person? To even dare to speak disrespectfully to him!
“Okay, don’t be angry! Let’s find an inn to rest after eating.” Shen Juming put some dishes into his bowl, because for half a day he did not eat much.
Just now, I want to ask that person about the direction to the village but can’t. Let’s find someone else to ask then. Since it is nearby, there will be many people who know.
