Chapter 99 Near Water Tower Moon
"That's right," Shan Xiaowu was busy picking up the dishes for Gui Buli. While not forgetting to turn his head and chat with Qi Nian, "Miss Qi Nian, don't you bring silver?"
She pointed to Qi Nian's slightly messy hair and the big burden next to the chair. She coughed twice and tried to express her doubts as euphemistically as possible, "Why is it so... er, embarrassed?"
Qi Nian was stunned, and then she was embarrassed to touch the knotted hair on her ear with her hand that didn't grab the chopsticks. She blushed slightly embarrassed, "I... I don't want to, I have regular cleaning..."
Women are those who please themselves. Which girl will make herself look unkempt?
"I used to live in Yuelai Inn in the east of the city. Everything was fine, but it was last night!" Qi Nian clenched the chopsticks in her hand, and her eyes seemed to spew flames out. "Last night, I was going to rest, but I didn't expect that the two annoying innkeepers and Xiao Er didn't know what was crazy. Suddenly, they took a large group of people to drive me out and threw my bags outside and didn't let me go in and talk to them. On."
Shan Xiaowu's hand stopped in mid-air and frowned in surprise, "Is there such a thing?"
According to her observation in Yanzhou City for more than ten years, although the shopkeeper of Chengdong Yuelai Inn is not a good stubble, he will definitely not do such a thing to offend the guests. Then... I think there should be someone behind it.
"Is it... not enough money?"
"Of course not!" Qi Nian patted the table angrily. It seemed that she was still angry about what happened last night. "I paid for the room for more than ten days when I checked in, but today is only the third day!"
"If so, it shouldn't be," Shan Xiaowu thought, "Could they make a mistake? Did they refund the room fee?
"No." Qi Nian's little face turned blue and white, and her hands subconsciously pressed the whip hanging on her waist. She thought she was very angry. "I thought they had made a mistake, but they said it was the woman in red clothes with a whip."
"So..." Shan Xiaowu looked at each other and saw each other's expression in each other's eyes.
Shan Xiaowu put down his chopsticks and looked up at her, "Miss Qi Nian... It's really troublesome. Can I just call you Qi Nian?"
Qi Nian was stunned, and then nodded hard, "Of course!"
"That's good, Qi Nian," Shan Xiaowu pointed to the whip she pressed in the palm of her hand and asked curiously, "I think you waved the whip that day. It should not look like you don't have martial arts. Why don't you try to beat those people down and go back directly? Isn't that more convenient?"
"I've fought with them!" Qi Nian subconsciously took over, but after thinking about it, she lowered her head and said, "But... they have two people who are said to come from a martial arts school. Their martial arts skills are a little higher than me. I... I can't beat them."
"Is martial arts better than yours?"
She opened her thumb and forefinger and rubbed her chin. Shan Xiaowu frowned and thought about it. There were also many large and small martial arts in Yanzhou City. However, when it comes to boxing and foot skills, compared with the others she has seen, it is just a general level. If Qi Nian can't beat them, then... It can be imagined that her kung fu is not much better.
"It's just a little taller, and they still bully me, so I don't notice it for a while and can't beat them." Qi Nian blushed and tried hard to bring back some face to herself.
"Cough!" Shan Xiaowu coughed and reluctantly suppressed the impulse to show her a row of white teeth, "Okay, let's not talk about this. Since Yuelai Inn doesn't allow you to stay, why don't you find another one to settle down? Is it possible that you haven't found it yet?"
Although Yanzhou City is not as prosperous as the capital, it is also an important place for business. Naturally, there are inns in the city. No matter how it is, it will not be miserable to sleep on the street, right?
"I've looked for it, but it's useless." Qi Nian flattened her mouth aggrievedly, and her slender fingers still rubbed the whip on her waist, as if it could make her feel at ease. "From last night, all the inns were either full or they didn't open the door to talk to me. Even the stable and the firewood house said that someone lived there."
It's very kind not to drive people out of the city.
Shan Xiaowu muttered to himself twice and quickly changed the topic, "Come on, let's not talk about this. Let's eat first. Maybe I can find it later."
"Well, I'll listen to you." Qi Nian nodded and picked up the rice bowl again, but the chopsticks just stretched out halfway and suddenly stopped.
Seeing that she looked different, Shan Xiaowu thought that she was not satisfied with the dishes, so he quickly said, "If these dishes don't suit your taste, there are other things..."
"No, these dishes are delicious. I like them very much." Qi Nian shook her head with a lost face, and the pearl chain on the Internet swayed left and right with her movements. "I'm just wondering if I did something wrong to make people here hate me very much, because I don't know that I don't live in the inn. Even the street hawkers and restaurants refuse to sell me any food. I have been early. I'm hungry now."
"Cough...what?"
The juice in the mouth of Shan Xiaowufang almost spewed out. She finally swallowed it and choked herself half to death. Fortunately, she patted her on the back with her hand in time, otherwise she didn't know how long she would cough.
Even the source of food has been cut off... It's really worthy of her second brother's style, which is fierce enough. Thinking about it, the scene in front of the door of Shanfu really stepped on the second brother's lion's tail.
No wonder Zhaocai Jinbao was so happy this morning. It turned out that it had met the requirements of Shan Baoqian, which made it untenable for Qi Nian to be rejected everywhere in Yanzhou City.
But it seems a little unfair for a few big men to bully a weak woman like this...
Shan Xiaowu held his cheek with one hand, poked lychee ice with the supervisor in the other hand, and looked at Qi Nian, who was quietly eating with the corners of his eyes. The light of prank slowly appeared in his eyes, and even the smile at the corners of his mouth became more and more evil.
Qi Nian was busy eating and didn't see it. She couldn't leave her side clearly, but he didn't intend to stop her, because it was her fun. As long as she was happy, he would definitely support it to the end.
"Well," Shan Xiaowu withdrew his hand holding his cheek, put his arms on the table, and looked at Qi Nian with great interest and suggested, "Qi Nian, anyway, you are going to collect debts with my second... second young master, and there is no place to live now. Why don't you move to Shan's house with me?"
"Move... Move to Shanfu?" Isn't that the same place as that guy? Maybe I can see him every day, and maybe I can give him a chance to remember himself...
"I... I... Is this okay? I mean...I mean..." Shocked by the sudden idea in her mind, Qi Nian held her red cheek and was almost immediately moved, but after all, she was not stupid, and she also knew to make some thoughts to express her question at this time, "Xiaowu, who the hell are you? Why can I live in a single house?"
"Me?" Shan Xiaowu rolled his eyes twice, and then smiled cunningly, "Me, I'm the closest person of the second son of Shanfu. He has been a childhood sweetheart since he was a child."
She didn't lie about this. The brother and sister did play with each other since childhood, and the relationship was even better. They almost wore the same crotch trousers - if her second brother could wear her trousers.
She has never mentioned her brother-sister relationship with Shan Baoqian, but deliberately leads her identity to an ambiguous place, in order to test the reaction of Qi Nian.
Sure enough, Qi Nian was stunned after listening to this. Her red mouth opened and closed for a long time, and pointed to Shan Xiaowu with a ghostly expression, "You...he...he...you..."
Shan Xiaowu winked at her, and then snuggled up to her arms, "We? That's not what we are."
"But..."
Qi Nian still wanted to talk, but Shan Xiaowu interrupted all her thoughts faster than her. "But don't worry, I already have my father-in-law, and I won't rob you."
Even if you want to rob, you won't rob her second brother. It's not blind. Why do you want to rob a stingy and stingy money? What's more, it's still messy and messy!
Qi Nian was stunned. When she reacted, she immediately blushed again with the meaning of Shan Xiaowu's words. "This...this... I don't have it. You, don't talk nonsense."
"Don't you like the second young master?" Shan Xiaowu raised her willow eyebrows, and she didn't believe that Qi Nian could say the word 'no'.
"I..."
Qi Nian opened her mouth, but she couldn't say half a word of denial.
She likes Shan Baoqian, which is true.
Six years ago in the desert, he saved himself who was almost insulted from the sand bandit and gently escorted her home all the way. At that time, a small heart of her was left on him.
For so many years, she has been thinking about him all the time, hoping that she can grow up quickly and then leave the desert to find him. She learned from a passing trader that he was a brocade man, so when she turned fifteen, she told her parents frankly that she was going to find her heart. Although her parents were worried, they did not object.
She went all the way south and worked hard to find him for a whole year. It was not until a few days ago that she met him outside a small town that could not be named. Unfortunately, he did not recognize him, and he also ate the only pet she brought with.
Although she was sad about the death of Xiaobaozi, she was more happy to have a chance to get close to him, but he... seemed to hate himself.
Obviously, she wanted to please him like that, but in the end, she couldn't help but confront him when she saw him. She didn't want to. She really... just wanted to see the gentle light in his eyes of six years ago.
"Okay, okay, I know all about it. It's okay if you don't say it. Just stay at ease." Shan Xiaowu pulled her little hand on the table and patted it, and continued to follow **, "Mr. Shan and Mrs. Shan, I will say hello first. They are very nice and will definitely take care of you. Don't worry. And you think, as long as you live in a single house, isn't it close to the water platform, not only can you get close to me... the second young master, but also better for your snake... Er, I mean Xiaobaozi to get justice, right?
"But I..."
"Don't be. Don't worry, everything is with me." Shan Xiaowu patted his chest boldly. At the end, he didn't forget to pat his chest again, adding, "Even if I can't do it, I still have my father-in-law."
Her father-in-law has strong martial arts skills, and the second brother's kind of money that can only calculate people is not an opponent at all. If necessary, we can suppress it by force, hehe.
"Thank you, Xiao Wu." Qi Nian knew that Shan Xiaowu was deliberately helping her, and she couldn't help but secretly spit on her previous behavior of slandering Shan Xiaowu. "I really don't know how to repay you."
"Haha," Shan Xiaowu waved his hand, took his inseparable arm and smiled blindly. "There is no need to repay. As long as you pester the second young master more, how miserable you can make him."
Whole person? Or how miserable is it?
Qi Nian was stunned, "Aren't you childhood sweethearts? How..."
"A childhood sweetheart!" Shan Xiaowu grinded his teeth with hatred, "When I was a child, he was bullying me. He not only forced me to run errands for him when he was a few years older than me, but also when someone gave me red envelopes during the Spring Festival, he would come to rob him! If it hadn't been for my father-in-law now, I guess I would have to continue to squeeze him.
"..." Qi Nian opened her mouth wide and thought that she was no wonder that Shan Xiaowu was going to marry someone else... It turned out that Shan Baoqian was too arrogant and failed.
