Chapter 19

The old country of the King of Wu is beautiful and rich in ancient times.

Susu has reached an agreement with Xu Jiaorong to stay in Xu's house until she finds a suitable house. During this period, Susu took charge of all the food and clothing, and had to pay the Xu family's accommodation expenses... Xu Jiaorong was very thin-skinned, and in the end, she refused to accept the money anyway. Susu secretly laughed and only said that it was her food expenses, which should be handed over to her once and returned to her if necessary. Xu Jiaorong no longer refused.

Susu watched Xu Jiaorong carefully take the 50 taels of silver bill into the money bag, hide it close to her, and smile shyly at her. I couldn't help sighing in my heart...

Money can push ghosts... If there is enough money, it is not a problem to push ghosts. She really smashed it with gold and silver. I don't believe that Xu Jiaorong will still think that she is a burdensome outsider~ It's almost enough to serve as the God of Wealth~

From this point of view, Cen Biqing still knows the world's market very well~

Well... Of course she won't save money for him~

The carriage turned east and west on the bluestone road and finally stopped in front of an ordinary green tile and white walled house. Xu Jiaorong got off the carriage to open the door. She wanted to put the carriage in the patio, but the carriage was too big to enter directly through the main door. Xu Jiaorong stood aside in a dilemma. Susu didn't put an old man in the car, and then jumped out of the carriage to help. Xu Jiaorong said, "Miss Susu, what are you doing down?"

Susu blinked innocently: "I'll help."

Xu Jiaorong hurriedly said, "You don't need to help with this kind of small thing. Besides, this is physical work. You are a girl with little strength and can't help. Let's go to the house and wait first."

Susu leaned her head and said shamelessly, "Sister Xu, is this carriage causing you trouble?" In fact, the biggest trouble should be herself~ Susu made extremely understanding suggestions: "If so, I'll ask Afu Awang to sell it."

Hearing this, Xu Jiaorong waved her hand helplessly: "This can't be done. If you go out, you are all at the loss of this. How can you say that you sell it?"

Susu smiled gently: "It doesn't matter. I had planned to settle down here, and I won't use this again in the short term."

Xu Jiaorong was still hesitating, and suddenly flashed an inspiration: "Gongfu's house is more empty, and there is a car shed behind him. How about I going to tell him to put the carriage with him?"

Gongfu? Is it Li Gongfu? Like a thunderous name~ Su Su smiled obediently, "Listen to my sister."

"Then come in with me first, and I'll talk to him when the father-in-law comes."

"Sister Xu, Afu Awang doesn't live here. It's better for them to go outside."

Xu Jiaorong hesitated for a moment.

Susu said, "The two of them are men, and it's not inconvenient to live outside. By the way, they can also live in a house for me."

Xu Jiaorong nodded and said yes, after all, it is really not a glorious thing for a strange man to move into the house. Their arrangement saved her a lot of trouble.

Xu Jiaorong led the way, and Susu gave the two people a wince and followed them in small steps.

Xu Jiaorong's family is a typical four-shui Guitang-style residence in the south of the Yangtze River. The door is opened on the central axis, and the front-facing main room is the hall. There are also two-storey buildings in the back courtyard, and the middle opens into the patio. Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs. As Xu Jiaorong said, although this place is not big, it is still more than enough to live with a few people.

Through a large row of phoenix flowers and trees, Xu Jiaorong introduced Susu into a small wing room on the east of the second floor, took out a fire fold from the drawer of the dressing table, lit an oil lamp, circled twice like a little girl, and laughed, "Thank you, Sister Xu, I like it very much."

Some of the uneasiness in Xu Jiaorong's heart suddenly dissipated, and even her smile became bright. As long as the Susu girl likes it.

After a few more words, there was a heavy footsteps outside the door downstairs. Su Su's ear strength was surprisingly good, and she immediately recognized it. Xu Jiaorong also heard it. She stood up straight and looked downstairs, and remembered that there were still outsiders. She was a little embarrassed and smiled apologetically: "Miss Susu, probably my Chinese is back. Why don't you take a break and I'll prepare dinner for you later?"

I can't ask for it~ Susu immediately smiled gently and said, "Sister Xu, don't have to be so polite. Since it's Hanwen... My brother is here, please be busy. Don't worry about me. I've used Suzhai in Lingyin Temple. Don't bother me."

"Isn't that...not good?"

Don't worry so much~ Susu pretended to yawn, sleepy, and smiled confusedly: "Sister Xu, Susu is a little tired. Can you go to bed first?"

Xu Jiaorong hurriedly replied, "Of course... Miss Susu, have a good rest. I'll go out first."

Su Su smiled at her and said, "Sister Xu, go well."

The door was gently closed, Susu took off her shoes and socks, removed her coat, untied her skirt, and spread her hair buns. Shi Ran lay down **, pulled the thin quilt on her waist, and smiled. At least she is now a guest brought by Xu Jiaorong. Is there any reason for Xu Xian to refuse people thousands of miles away?

"Hanwen, why did you come back so late?" Xu Jiaorong's worried voice came downstairs, "Why are your clothes torn? What happened?"

"It's okay," Susu heard Xu Xian's voice and said, which was not as bad as usual. "I saw a ten-year-old dendrobium tree on the mountain, and I accidentally fell down when picking it. Now it's okay."

Xu Jiaorong's breath came. As long as it's okay. You go to the room to change your clean clothes, take off this one first, and I'll wash it for you.

"It's getting dark. Let's go tomorrow."

"It's still on. Besides, it's only a few steps away, and I'll be ready soon... There are also a few cold vegetable steamed buns in the cupboard. You can eat them by yourself."

......

The sound of footsteps going upstairs clearly reached Susu's ears. Susu gave a "tut" sound, closed her eyes, and looked like she was sleeping soundly. There are a total of three rooms facing south, facing east and west. Su Su lives in an east-facing hut, while the stairs are located on the south-facing side of Susu's room. Whether it is a coincidence or not, if the two of them want to go back to the room, they are bound to pass by the plain room.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer. When she passed by her room, her footsteps were obviously stopped, and the sky was blue-gray. The room was not bright enough, and the oil lamp was bright and dark, which was particularly clear from the outside. Xu Xian frowned. This room has been vacant for several years. Could it be that sister forgot to turn off the lights? Thinking about this, he naturally pushed the door and entered.

The room was dark and couldn't see clearly. Xu Xian walked to the dressing table, took down the oil lamp, and just wanted to blow it out. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of ** lazy figure. His hands trembled, and the hot oil in the oil lamp spilled and splashed on his arm. He was in pain, his hand loosened, and the lamp went straight to the ground. In panic, Xu Xian took the lead in regaining his composure and quickly went to get the lamp. The hot oil splashed on his hand. Xu Xian's heart shrank, but his hand did not pause and picked up the lamp in time.

** The girl slept uneasily. She heard a sound in a daze and was about to wake up.

Xu Xian was shocked, and the conditioned reflex blew out the lamp, and the remaining light of the bean in the room was also swallowed up by the darkness. He turned around and just wanted to leave this place quickly.

The girl opened her eyes hazyly at this time and got up from **. She was still unconscious. Seeing the figure in front of the bed, she thought it was Xu Jiaorong and asked vaguely, "Sister Xu, what's wrong? What's the matter?"

Xu Xian was shocked when he heard the words, and his footsteps suddenly stopped. Suddenly, he only felt that his heart was suffocated. His eyes have adapted to the darkness here, and naturally he has seen the girl's posture clearly. The girl who woke up from her sleep was confused and had not fully woken up. Her snow-white underwear slid down from her left shoulder, revealing her delicate collarbone and a small white chest. Seeing that the person did not speak, she did not react muddledly. Her body climbed out of the thin quilt again and asked confusedly, "Sister Xu Sister?"

He has always been a little smart, but after all, he is young, and there is nothing he can do in the face of such a scene.

Now he has taken the initiative to enter the women's boudoir, which has lost his courtesy. He could almost imagine what the girl would look like if he ran away carelessly at this moment.

But if you say it is a misunderstanding now, the result may also be counterproductive.

It's not whether he goes or not. He is facing a dilemma, which is really nerve-wracking.

While thinking about what to do to not cause panic, there was a sound of footsteps downstairs, and a soft voice came up through the door, "Hanwen...Hanwen? Aunt Liu, would you like to go back first? Hanwen doesn't know where he has gone. Can I ask him to bring the medicinal herbs to you later?

The old and hoarse voice said, "That's embarrassing. I'd better wait here for the child Hanwen to come back."

"This..."

"A Si is also an old problem. Don't worry about it at this time. Go ahead. I'll just wait here."

"Well, Aunt Liu, please sit down for a while. I'll go upstairs to have a look..."

...

Xu Xian said badly and glanced at the girl. Sure enough, after seeing the girl, she reacted unconsciously. Her squinted eyes suddenly opened wide and were also particularly bright in the dark. When she looked at him, her eyes were mixed with fear-like emotions, as if she suddenly understood at this moment that this was not the lamb she thought, and It's a vicious gray wolf.

She was a little thin, but she was particularly rosy. Her radiant mouth opened, and her throat squeezed out a thin tone, which stopped abruptly.

Xu Xian felt that he was really impulsive. At the moment he saw the girl open her mouth, he rushed directly to the girl and covered the girl's mouth neatly.

A soft and wet touch came from the palm, and the girl's clamped body trembled violently. Xu Xian's heart thumped and secretly shouted bad. She may not have planned to scream, but was scared, but he mistakenly thought that she was going to scream and did this unusual move. Now that things have turned out like this, I'm afraid it's more difficult to end.

He thought it was a little funny. When would he fall into the field of the valley? Anyway, he let go of his hand and wanted to let go of her to explain the situation. For a moment, there was a short and rapid sound of "Ah!", and the girl's frightened cry had overflowed from between her fingers.

At this time, the footsteps on the stairs became clearer and tighter.
