Rebirth of the beauty of the peasant girl

Chapter 214 A Night in the Inn

The last time I lived here was when I went to Kyoto, with Li Beibei, and met Zhu Ba and his sister.

Because of Li Beibei, Liu Qingluo was a little embarrassed to see Zhu Ba, so she chose another inn just in case.

This inn is called Hao Zai Lai Inn. It doesn't look big, but inside it is clean. The owner is a middle-aged couple. They are plainly dressed and cheerful when they meet people.

"Little girl, go out alone? It's not safe outside, so be careful." The proprietress said with concern, and went to greet her husband, "Master, help unload the carriage..."

"Oh, I see." The man replied honestly.

"Little girl, you can live in the inner room. The inner room is quieter and suitable for you." The proprietress took her to the innermost room and prepared steamed buns and porridge for her.

Liu Qingluo ate warm porridge, washed up, and read a book under the lamp, feeling very comfortable.

Seeing her reading, the proprietress specially sent an extra lamp over and told her to rest early.

"I remember Auntie, you should go back and rest too." Liu Qingluo smiled at her, and turned to see a seven or eight-year-old boy hiding at the door with timid eyes.

During the meal before, Liu Qingluo knew that he was the son of the boss and his wife.

Seeing the boy's eyes flickering, Qing Luo took out a pack of candied fruit from the bundle and handed it to him.

This was what Li Beibei stuffed into her bag before she left, so that she could pass the time on the way.

"Little girl is so polite, boys don't need to eat these..." The proprietress smiled gently.

The boy also grabbed the candied fruit, smiled shyly at her, and said softly, "My sister is so beautiful, even more beautiful than Guanyin in the temple."

"Haha!" Liu Qingluo was very happy to hear that, and wished to give a few more packs of candied fruit, but it was a pity that there were no more for the time being.

"Let's go, don't disturb my sister's reading." The proprietress took the boy away.

Seeing the happy family of three, Liu Qingluo was even more eager to fly home.

She was wearing a cloak, holding a collection of poems and reading it under the lamp. Feeling a little chilly, she stood up to close the window.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, he suddenly saw a figure flashing past the corner from the corner of his eyes.

She frowned, always feeling that the figure seemed familiar.

After thinking about it for a while, she had no idea, so she gave up, closed the window, and prepared to turn off the lights and go to sleep.

Lying on the bed, she couldn't fall asleep anyway, and she was unconsciously thinking about where she saw that person.

Ah!
She suddenly remembered!
At the beginning, she and Li Beibei were in a small broken boat when they encountered Lin Jinyu and the others arresting criminals.

At that time, the boatman's son was caught, but there was another person who was said to be the second head of the family, jumped off the boat and escaped.

At that time, Liu Qingluo only saw the figure from the back of that person. After thinking about it carefully, wasn't it the figure just now!

That person actually appeared in this inn!
Lin Jinyu and Brother Wuye seem to have been looking for this person all the time.

She thought about it, got up in the dark, got dressed, opened the door, and walked out lightly.

Because of her light body, when she followed Wu Ye to learn martial arts, only this follower was the best.

She walked along the corridor, walked to the corner where she saw the figure just now, stopped, and listened carefully.

It was late at night, and the inn was extremely quiet, except for the occasional meowing of a cat, there was hardly any movement to be heard.

Liu Qingluo stood quietly for a while, and was about to turn around to leave when she suddenly heard a bang in her ears.

Very harsh in the silence of the night.

She cheered up, followed the source of the sound, leaned over, and then stopped in front of a door.

Inside there were faint lights coming from the windows, and murmured voices.

She pressed her ear to the window, and heard a voice inside saying: "...the wind has been very windy these days, you should go to other places to take shelter first."

After a while, another voice sounded: "They probably didn't expect me to be here, you just have to take care of yourself... This time the brothers lost their troops and suffered a big loss... You must not be caught..."

this voice...

Liu Qingluo opened her eyes wide in shock.

She shook hands, exhaled secretly, and put her ears together again.

"...There is still some money left, is it safe?"

"Brother, don't worry, nothing will go wrong. If that person wants to cross the river and tear down the bridge, we have something in our hands..."

"Oh, this time it's really..." The voice sighed a long time, looking very annoyed.

"Brother, everything was going well at first, but that guy surnamed Lin suddenly appeared. That kid is too dangerous, otherwise we wouldn't fall short...I'll kill him if I find a chance..."

"Forget it, let's talk about it first..."

The more Liu Qingluo outside the window listened, the more shocked she felt.

The two people inside were clearly talking about the theft of official silver.The "person surnamed Lin" in their mouths obviously refers to Lin Jinyu!

The worst part was that she was so familiar with the so-called "Big Brother" voice that even though he deliberately lowered his voice, Liu Qingluo could recognize it right away.

damn it!
The criminal who has harmed countless people and failed to get the relief money is right in front of her eyes, what should she do!
Watch them get away with it!
Gritting her teeth, she reached out to push the door——

At this moment, a hand suddenly stretched out and covered her mouth!

Surprised, she bent her elbow and slammed backwards fiercely, while turning her body flexibly——

There was a muffled hum from behind!
Liu Qingluo's movements stopped abruptly!

She stared at the man in the black veil behind her, and was stunned.

"you……"

"Hush—" the masked man put his hand on her lips, put his arms around her waist, and led her to jump up to the roof.

The moonlight was bright outside, the masked man put her down, lowered his head to uncover a tile, and watched carefully.

Below, is the room of the two criminals.

"Lin Jinyu, why are you here?" Qingluo looked at the masked man, her mind still uncertain.

"I also want to ask you, why did you come here when you didn't stay in the capital properly?" Lin Jinyu took off the veil, looking a little annoyed, "You came here to eavesdrop, if I didn't find out, are you planning to go in? Arrests?"

"I……"

"As far as your two strokes are concerned, which one can you beat? You can't control yourself!" Lin Jinyu's tone was very severe.

He couldn't imagine what would happen if she rushed in without him noticing her.

Although Liu Qingluo was scolded, she knew that she was wronged, so she turned her face away and said nothing.

"Guest officer, the supper you want is here—" The proprietress knocked on the door from below.

Liu Qingluo was startled, and said anxiously in a low voice: "It's the proprietress of the inn, will it be dangerous for her to go in?"

Lin Jinyu said quietly: "Let's see the situation again."

"Why not just arrest them?"

"I need them to tell the whereabouts of the remaining silver. Only the two of them know. What if they startle the snake?"

Liu Qingluo grabbed a tile of the roof and looked down nervously.
