Lin'er slept very deeply that night and didn't wake up until about three o'clock in the morning the next day. Opening his apricot eyes, he saw that he was sleeping in a bed with curtains hanging on all sides. He opened the curtains and looked around the room. It was extremely elegantly decorated. Next to the brocade stool and desk, a plum blossom bloomed in an ancient vase. On the wall There are also paintings of spring trees and autumn fragrance by famous artists.
There was also a small dressing table under the window. Lin'er shook his head and remembered that he seemed to have drank a few glasses of wine yesterday, listening to Gu Xiao and Brother Chi talking about Jianghu stories, leaning on his sister's shoulder. fell asleep on the bed.
Looking at the elegant decoration and the dressing table in the room, I must have guessed that this should be my sister's room. Lin'er was thinking about it when she heard the door creak open, and the person who came was none other than Tasumei. At this moment, she had a kettle filled with hot water hanging on her arm, and she was holding a tray with porridge and a few side dishes in her hands.
"Are you awake? Yesterday, you fell asleep leaning on me. Are you hungry? Wash up quickly and eat some porridge to wake up the bar. In spring, drunkenness makes the mouth soft and has enough stamina. I called you no matter what I called you last night. I'm not awake yet." Gua Sumei's charming charm when they first met yesterday was completely gone, and her words were full of tenderness.
"I was greedy yesterday and drank a few more drinks, which caused trouble for my sister." Lin'er felt a little embarrassed.
"It doesn't matter, we will leave for Lingzhou in the next few days. We still need to take care of each other along the way. By the way, I only stay in this room when I am in the store on weekdays. Yesterday I It has been cleaned up. You can stay here with peace of mind before setting off in the next few days." Su Mei said with a smile, put the porridge and side dishes in her hands on the table, and poured the hot water she brought on the washing table. In the basin, Lin'er can wash up.
Lin'er hurried to help, and Su Mei smiled and said: "Okay, okay, go wash up quickly."
Lin'er has lost her parents since she was a child. In recent days, Gu Xiao, Uncle Li, and now her sister have all been very kind to her, which makes Lin'er feel that there are not only bad guys like Liu Yi in this world, but also these chivalrous and warm-hearted people. People in the world.
Seeing that Lin'er had finished washing up, Su Mei invited Lin'er to sit down at the table, raised her chopsticks, and put all the side dishes into Lin'er's bowl. Lin'er picked up the bowl and felt the porridge entering his stomach. It was warm and comfortable. It was paired with some side dishes. Although it was not as good as the rich food and clothing of his own clan, it made Lin'er feel extremely comfortable.
"By the way, I heard from Brother Mu yesterday that you met outside Liangzhou City and then went together. So were you originally planning to go to find Feng Lingdang?" Guesumei asked.
Lin'er knew that Gu Xiao was using a pseudonym, and since he was unwilling to reveal his real name at this moment, she had no choice but to cooperate with him and continue acting.
After swallowing the clear porridge in his mouth, Lin'er said: "Sister, to tell you the truth, when we first met outside the city, this kid hid his skills. Later, he had a fight with my guard Xue Hu, and I found out that he He is very skilled in martial arts. We hit it off right away, so we made an appointment to travel together. There is something in Fengling that both he and I care about, so we wanted to go together and get it."
The reason why Su Mei was not informed about Liuzhuang's affairs was not because he meant to deceive, but because he did not want to cause any complications due to Liuzhuang's affairs.
After Lin'er finished speaking, her apricot eyes turned, she came closer to Su Mei and whispered: "Sister, at the wine table yesterday, I saw you looking at Brother Chi with affection all the time, are you... married?" "
Seeing Taosumei's sad expression, Lin'er instantly understood that there was something hidden, and hurriedly pulled Taosumei and said, "Sister Tae, I said the wrong thing."
Su Meiyu put her hand on Lin'er's delicate hand, her sad expression turned into a relieved smile, and said softly: "Sister Lin'er, you know, sometimes, in a man's heart, some things may be more important than love. More. You are still young. In the future, maybe you will understand what I said today."
As if remembering something, Su Mei looked at Lin'er with a smile and said, "I saw the way you looked at Mu Yi yesterday, and it was very unusual. But this Mu Yi is very skilled in martial arts, handsome, and can speak well." , I think many girls’ families will like him.”
Seeing Tasumei's eyes that seemed to see through her, Lin'er's pretty face blushed, and her almond-shaped eyes immediately glanced aside, not daring to look at her sister's eyes anymore, and explained: "He has a big mouth. I can’t say for sure, but after getting along with him for a while, he is a kind-hearted person, and his martial arts skills are passable. All in all, he is not annoying. "
As a person who has been here, Su Mei naturally understood Lin'er's daughter's thoughts after hearing Lin'er's words "not very annoying": "Yes, yes, yes, other people should be extremely annoying in the eyes of our sister Lin'er. This As for Mu Yi, he’s just not that annoying, right?”
Lin'er's face turned red after listening to Sister Mei's words. As soon as Mei Sumei's joking words came out, Lin'er's previous words were more like pale excuses.
Putting away her joking expression, Su Mei looked at Lin'er's pretty young face and sighed, not knowing whether she was talking to Lin'er or to her former self: "If you like it, speak up earlier and let him understand your feelings. If This man has other things to bear on his shoulders. By then, I'm afraid you will have to spend more time waiting."
Lin'er seemed to understand, but seemed not to understand the words of the sometimes charming and sometimes gentle woman in front of her. She just opened her lips and said, "Sister, can you tell me about you and Brother Chi?"
Recalling the days of Momen, Su Mei's delicate face showed infinite yearning, and she said: "Back then..."
In the past few days, Lin'er had heard ancient legends and stories of rivers and lakes, mostly about chivalrous acts. After hearing about the past between Gui Sumei and Chi Tianya, the girl's tears rolled down her cheeks like a bead curtain breaking.
I remembered what Esumei said just now, and couldn't help but think of the young man's back.
"Sister Lin'er, you have also listened to your sister's story. It's time for us to go see them now. Your young master Mu Yi and my senior brother drank until late at night. I'm afraid they are still asleep now." Seeing Lin'er for She and Chi Tianya were unable to be together and shed tears. Esumei didn't want the girl to shed tears again, so she found an opportunity to change the subject.
——
Little did he know that the young man was struggling to extract himself from Xue Hu's thigh as strong as a liger. Last night, he and Chi Tianya had a drink, and Lao Li and Xue Hu competed for wine. Gu Xiao was not good at drinking. Brother Chi persuaded him to have a few drinks. Gu Xiao felt like the world was spinning, as if his chest had been slapped seventy or eighty times, and he could only force himself. He used his inner strength to suppress the roiling drunkenness, so as not to fall to the ground.
Brother Chi filled the cup with wine again, one cup after another. Gu Xiao couldn't remember how many cups he drank. He only vaguely remembered that Lao Li was laughing at Xue Hu, who had fallen asleep soundly, and holding his shoulders and calling him brother. Brother Chi, and later, it seemed that he held Ta Xue into his arms, and the fat marten also opened his mouth to drink wine, and later, he didn't remember it at all.
I opened my eyes drowsily, feeling that my chest was pressed by a heavy weight and I couldn't breathe. When I looked carefully, I found that I, Uncle Li and Brother Chi were all drunk at the wine table, and the fat Diao in Tuxue was also drunk. He was lying on all fours, his pink tongue sticking out of his mouth, hanging weakly to the side.
If it weren't for the heaving stomach that told Gu Xiao that the fat fern was just drunk and drunk, Gu Xiao would have rushed forward and used his internal energy to extend his life as the second-ranked person in Wugui Mountain.
Looking at himself, Gu Xiao realized why he couldn't breathe in his chest. Xue Hu's strong body was holding the empty wine jar, with one leg on his chest, and the loud snoring sound Looking around the back hall of Yuelai Building, fortunately it was early in the morning and the Yuelai Building was not open yet. If there were any customers in the store, they would probably come to visit the snorer in the backyard.
He just missed using Qingyi Jue to lift Xue Hu and others. Gu Xiao spent a lot of effort and finally pulled out his body, and when he saw Chi Tianya, he slowly woke up. Gu Xiao shook his confused head and said to Chi Tianya: "Brother Chi, I don't remember at all when I fell asleep."
Chi Tianya also drank so much last night that he lost his memory. At this moment, he was still drunk. He stood up unsteadily and burped: "Brother Mu... burp... you are such a good drinker. I can't burp for a long time..." No one got drunk."
Gu Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "I don't have the ability to drink. Yesterday I just felt dizzy, and now I'm still in a daze."
When the two woke up were confused about each other, there was a sound of the door opening. Lin'er looked at the mess in the room in surprise. However, Su Mei's eyes were filled with smiles, and she covered her lips and smiled softly.
It's been a long time since I've seen my senior brother act so recklessly. If my senior brother had taken a fancy to the strength of this little brother Mu and his group and wanted to win over them, he would be able to compete with the Chichirenren. Now it seems that senior brother has found some friends who can help him return to the chivalrous and righteous Mo Zhe Tianya he once was.
Call some people and carry Xue Hu and Lao Li to the guest room to sleep peacefully. He then ordered Chi Liang, who had bandaged his hand injury, to go down and prepare some toiletries in the guest room that had been prepared for senior brother and Mu Xiaoge so that they could wash up and sober up. .
Gu Xiao followed Chi Liang to the guest room prepared for him. Not only was the hot water for bathing ready, but even the clothes and luggage in the Liangzhou City Inn had been delivered to the guest room under the arrangements of Chi Tianya and Esumei. .
Taking off his clothes that smelled of alcohol, Gu Xiao took out the objects in his arms one by one. The broken silver, banknotes, Qilin Heaven-turning Seal, and the wooden sword given by the master to save his life were also intact. Of course, there were also That pawn ticket from Fengling Pawnshop.
Soaking himself in the wooden barrel, washing away the fatigue and the smell of last night's wine, Gu Xiao stretched out his hand to grab the pawn ticket from Fengling Pawn Shop, feeling the fatigue dissipate little by little with the hot water, Gu Xiao looked at With the Feng Ling Pawn Ticket in his hand, he tried hard to recall what Brother Chi said last night.
"I would rather follow the road of the King of Hell than enter Murong Valley." Repeating this murmuring sentence, Gu Xiao narrowed his eyes. If only he could find the entrance to Murong Valley, that would be fine. If he really couldn't use Fengling as a ticket. After taking the Yingli Tie, how do you enter Wangli Villa?
Why did the master have to investigate this "moment of greed"? Gu Xiao kept thinking about these things until the water was a little cool, then he walked out of the tub, wiped himself, changed his clothes, and put away his belongings.
I remembered that I was going to Lingzhou with Brother Chi in the near future, and it would take some time for me to go down the mountain. In order not to worry my master, I asked Uncle Li to go back to the mountain with these purchased Yuanri Festival things first, and tell what happened in these days to myself. I have found a way to report the matter of taking Yingli Tie to Master.
